Chapter 636: Chapter 636: Going to the Competition
So even though Liu Sixu is a playboy, even though Ye Ning knows it’s hard to tie Liu Sixu down.
She still wants to give it a try.
If she misses Liu Sixu, she doesn’t know if she’ll ever find someone of his caliber again.
Of course, in her heart, she also sees Liu Sixu as a stepping stone.
After spending time with Liu Sixu in Ye City, she would surely find opportunities to join him at some gatherings in their circle.
If she could meet someone more suitable, then she would let Liu Sixu go.
But before that, she still needs to keep Liu Sixu interested.
This is a bit tricky for Ye Ning.
After all, there are too many young and pretty girls around Liu Sixu.
Her advantage is being wealthy, having a career, independent, following the route of a strong woman.
Unlike those girls, she doesn’t need to depend on him, and she doesn’t show interest in his money, because she’s rich herself.
But just that isn’t enough, she needs to flirt with Liu Sixu, give him a taste but not fully satisfy him.
After all, doesn’t the saying go, the one you can’t get is always the one that stirs your heart?
As long as Liu Sixu gets a taste, but can’t have her.
Ye Ning doesn’t believe Liu Sixu won’t be intrigued, won’t remember her, won’t want to have her.
This time coming to Ye City, besides looking for trouble with Ye Fei, she also came for Liu Sixu.
Even if Ye Fei wasn’t there, she would have come sooner or later.
She must break into the higher circles, meet wealthier, more marriageable people.
Her goal of marrying into a wealthy family has never changed.
Liu Sixu has been back in Ye City for so long, who knows how many women he’s added to his side, has he forgotten her?
Is he still interested in her?
Ye Ning took a deep breath, waiting for Liu Sixu to answer the phone.
After a short while, Liu Sixu picked up the call.
"Ye Ning?" Liu Sixu’s voice came through the phone.
"It’s me." Ye Ning laughed softly, "I’ve come to Ye City, just arrived today."
Liu Sixu slightly raised his eyebrows, with a bit of surprise in his tone he asked, "What are you doing in Ye City?"
Ye Ning laughed, a mix of cold and coquettish, "Could it be you think I’m here for you?"
Liu Sixu raised one eyebrow: "Isn’t it so?"
Ye Ning laughed sarcastically, saying, "I’m here to visit my sister, just found out she’s in Ye City. I finished all my work in Ye City and rushed over to see her."
"It’s just that you and Ruo Yi happen to be in Ye City, so I contacted you two. You didn’t think I came here and contacted you first, did you?" Ye Ning said as if she didn’t care much about Liu Sixu.
"Besides contacting my sister in Ye City, I have nothing else to do. Thought if you have time, we could hang out together." Ye Ning said.
"Alright then, I’ll hang up first." Before Liu Sixu could say anything, Ye Ning had already hung up the phone.
Liu Sixu looked at the phone that had been hung up, raising his eyebrows.
Ye Ning’s push and pull, pretending to be indifferent, how could he not understand it?
With Ye Ning’s skills, she wasn’t really significant in his eyes.
However, Ye Ning’s little tricks did make him find her interesting.
At least it keeps things fresh, not getting bored so quickly.
He could play with her a little.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Ning immediately called Ding Ruoyi.
Just now, she told Liu Sixu she had contacted Ding Ruoyi too.
In case Liu Sixu asks Ding Ruoyi and finds out she hadn’t contacted Ding Ruoyi, wouldn’t she have revealed her hand?
So she needed to get in touch with Ding Ruoyi before Liu Sixu.
The phone rang for a short while, and Ding Ruoyi picked it up.
Ye Ning immediately switched to a cheerful and enthusiastic tone, "Ruoyi, it’s me, Ye Ning."
"Ye Ning?" Ding Ruoyi asked with a smile, "Why did you suddenly call?"
Ding Ruoyi’s impression of Ye Ning wasn’t particularly good or bad.
Ding Ruoyi felt unfamiliar with Ye Ning.
They were introduced by Yu Xinman.
But the Ding Family is cautious with people and doesn’t open up easily.
With a clear-headed mother like Du Siting, who taught her well, plus some inherited personality traits.
Ding Ruoyi would not easily be deceived.
Even with Liu Sixu, Ding Ruoyi’s relationship with him wasn’t particularly close.
Just ordinary friends gathering occasionally, when the timing was right, they would form a group and go out to play together.
Nothing more.
After all, these people make friends for networking, it helps in business.
If there were really close personal ties, it depended on how deep the interests were involved.
So, towards Ye Ning, Ding Ruoyi maintained superficial enthusiasm.
Not offending her, but not developing deep friendships either.
"I’m here in Ye City handling some affairs, thinking you guys are having fun in Ye City, so I just wanted to contact you, see when you’re free, we can gather again. Last time in Ye City, you didn’t stay long before leaving. We didn’t get to hang out much." Ye Ning said.
"Alright." Ding Ruoyi nodded, agreeing, "Are you in Ye City for business?"
"No, just dealing with some family matters." Ye Ning replied.
"I see." Ding Ruoyi thought for a moment, "Anyway, we’re here for fun, with lots of time, no particularly important things, so it depends on your schedule. Whenever you’re free to meet us is fine."
Ye Ning nodded, "How about tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow..." Ding Ruoyi hesitated.
Ye Ning sneered internally, Ding Ruoyi said they’d be free anytime, but now that Ye Ning asked, she’s hesitating.
Ye Ning wondered if Ding Ruoyi was doing it on purpose?
Could it be that Ding Ruoyi also has some thoughts about Liu Sixu?
That’s why she says nice things but makes excuses when it comes time to meet?
Ye Ning hesitantly asked, "Do you have something going on tomorrow?"
Ding Ruoyi laughed, "Actually it’s nothing too important, we just bought tickets for a cooking competition tomorrow. Planning to go see it. We heard it was particularly exciting this year back in Ye City. Just happened to be in Ye City now, thought since we had nothing else to do, we’d go watch the competition."
Ye City’s landmarks are many, but Ding Ruoyi and friends wouldn’t be like tourists, packing their schedule full every day to check off sights.
The Ding Family also owns property in Ye City, Ding Ruoyi usually stays in the Ding Family’s villa in Ye City.
Every day, they might casually tour a site, go shopping, have a coffee, or dine at Ye City’s famous restaurants and then visit a landmark.
Enjoying leisure this way, not minding time, leaving whenever they feel like it.
