Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 464: Drenched in Dog Blood

Lin Yue’s sincere apology caused his eyes to redden, making it hard for Ningwan to blame him.

"You don’t need to apologize, and you don’t need to be upset. This wasn’t your fault to begin with. Things have come to this point; saying more is meaningless. We can only think of ways to solve the problem quickly and hope it doesn’t worsen."

Lin Yue said, "I’ve already asked someone to control the comments, but it’s had little effect. However, sister, you don’t need to worry too much. Mr. Zhan is very powerful in Jiangcheng and has been navigating the business world for many years. He must have a way to solve these minor issues. I feel embarrassed to call him. Sister, could you pass on a message for me? No matter what Mr. Zhan needs, I will do my utmost to assist him."

"Alright, I’ll pass your message, but you don’t have to feel embarrassed about contacting him. Last time, you helped him a lot, and he’s very grateful to you," Ningwan said.

As they spoke, they finally reached the restaurant.

Lin Yue swiftly moved ahead to open the restaurant door for Ningwan.

This was originally the waiter’s task, but Lin Yue took over.

After entering the restaurant, Lin Yue asked the waiter to take them to the pre-booked spot.

This spot was by the window, an excellent location.

Lin Yue pulled out a chair for Ningwan, and once she sat down, he explained with a smile, "I asked someone to book this spot for me earlier; luckily, there was still one available. This restaurant has a great reputation, so it gets busy at lunchtime with nearby company staff."

The restaurant was indeed quite full at that moment.

If Lin Yue hadn’t booked a spot in advance, they might not have had a place to sit.

"You two can take a look at the menu and place your orders via phone,"

The waiter handed over the menu and reminded them they could order through their phones.

Lin Yue asked, "What are your signature dishes?"

"These are our signature dishes; you both might want to try them," the waiter opened the menu and pointed to the first few dishes.

Ningwan’s desire for food was low; as long as she was full, that was enough. She didn’t have a strong appetite for gourmet food.

So when she heard the waiter’s recommendations, she said, "These dishes, please! Thank you!"

She was really not in the mood to look through the menu.

The waiter glanced at Lin Yue, who nodded, and then she left with the menu.

Soon, the dishes they ordered were served.

Lin Yue diligently picked up dishes with the serving chopsticks for Ningwan, "Sister, try these and see if they’re good."

"Thank you!" Ningwan expressed her gratitude.

Lin Yue watched Ningwan eat with eager anticipation, waiting for her response.

Ningwan smiled and said, "These are delicious; your recommendation for this restaurant is indeed excellent."

Lin Yue finally smiled with joy, quickly picked up a piece of food himself, ate it, and nodded with a smile, "Yes, it is indeed delicious."

"Lin Yue, are you planning to stay in Jiangcheng for the long term this time?" Ningwan chatted casually as she ate.

Lin Yue nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, I’ll stay here long-term. However, I still have a company, so I might occasionally travel abroad for business trips, but mostly, I’d like to remain in Jiangcheng. After all, this is my root, and there are people I care about here."

As he said this, Lin Yue’s gaze became even more intense.

But quickly, he smiled and explained, "You and Ye Shao are here, you’re both people I care about. After wandering for so many years, I just want to spend more time with you."

"Staying in Jiangcheng is good; we can look out for each other. However, you’re not young anymore; have you considered finding a girlfriend?" Ningwan asked.

Lin Yue blushed and replied shyly, "I haven’t thought about it yet; why, is sister getting worried for me?"

"It’s nothing, just asking," Ningwan laughed.

Actually, it was Wan Tianning who found her, knowing she was familiar with Lin Yue, hoping she could be a matchmaker.

"One is your biological sister, the other is your godbrother, if the two of us get together, wouldn’t it be like becoming family?" Those were Wan Tianning’s exact words.

At that time, she almost laughed at this statement, watching her playfully as she asked, "Since when did you admit you were my sister?"

"Whether I admit it or not, I am still your sister, aren’t I? Aren’t our faces the best evidence?" Wan Tianning exclaimed anxiously.

"It’s the first time hearing you so eager to be my sister. But on this matter, I can’t make the decision. Even if he were my real brother, I wouldn’t interfere in his romantic affairs. Even if it were my son, who he likes, who he doesn’t, whether to marry or not, is his own freedom. I wouldn’t meddle."

"Then could you ask him what he thinks," Wan Tianning pleaded.

"Alright, I can ask for you."

Seeing her so anxious, she could only agree.

But now it seemed, she was glad she hadn’t fully agreed. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to bring it up.

"Sister, you know, I’ve been an orphan since childhood; my only kin are you and Ye Shao. Naturally, I’d like to start a family and have a place to belong sooner. But I just haven’t met the right person, so there’s no rush, sister. You don’t have to worry about me. When I meet someone suitable, I will surely tell you," Lin Yue said.

Ningwan chuckled lightly, quickly picked up dishes for him, telling him to eat more.

Lin Yue nodded, eating the food Ningwan picked, not really enjoying it.

After they finished eating, Lin Yue went to pay and then left with Ningwan.

"Sister, I’ll give you a ride back later," Lin Yue said.

"No need, the driver is waiting nearby. I’ll give him a call, and he’ll come over. You don’t need to see me off; you’re busy too, so get to your things," Ningwan said.

"Alright, I’ll..."

"Lin Yue, you made me unemployed, ruined my reputation; today I’ll make you pay!"

Suddenly, a man rushed over, shouting Lin Yue’s name loudly.

Ningwan and Lin Yue were both startled and looked at the man, seeing him holding a bucket of unknown substance, throwing it towards them.

"Sister, watch out."

Lin Yue, without hesitation, shielded Ningwan, embracing her tightly.

"Lin Yue."

Ningwan was startled, quickly pushing Lin Yue away.

She feared if it was acid, that would be trouble.

Fortunately, after pushing Lin Yue away, she reached out and touched it; it was sticky.

It wasn’t acid, more like black dog’s blood.

She was so tense earlier that her sense of smell failed. Now, the air was filled with the scent of black dog’s blood. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

This guy, she wondered where he got so much black dog’s blood, what era is this, still doing such superstitions.

Did they think splashing Lin Yue with black dog’s blood would bring him misfortune?

But soon, she realized the opponent didn’t just want to practice superstition but also aimed at tarnishing Lin Yue’s reputation.

Reporters came out of nowhere, snapping continuous photos of Lin Yue.

Ningwan quickly reached out to protect Lin Yue, but still, many photos were taken.
