Chapter 130 Different Generations
As soon as John caught a glimpse of her phone, Nina withdrew her hand from his arm to cover it. He
reacted quickly and mped his right arm to prevent her from withdrawing her hand.
Her hand was now stuck in his arm. She paused and looked at him. He was acting like nothing was
happening. Nina wanted tough, but she had to hold it back. She quickly put away her phone and
walked into the party with him.
The moment they entered the garden, Yvonne appeared. She slightly nodded at Nina and then turned
to John. "Mr. Shi, Ms. Shi wants to see you," she said respectfully.
''Jessica wants to see John? Why?'' Nina thought to herself.
''Maybe she will ask him to propose to Vivian tonight at the party.'' A sense of displeasure blossomed in
Nina''s heart at the thought, but she decided to ignore it. She cleared her throat and said, "Since your
sister wants to see you, we should meet her."
"Ms. Shi wants to see Mr. Shi alone," Yvonne interjected, averting her gaze. The tough tone she just
used on Nina was quite hard to miss.
It seemed that Jessica wanted to keep Nina away on purpose.
"I won''t meet with her," John said tly. He could not leave Nina by herself.
Tonight was important to him. He hoped that Henry was on his way with a copy of the marriage license.
It seemed that Jessica had already anticipated what would happen and had already told Yvonne what
to do. "Ms. Shi will send someone to take Miss Lu to the banquet hall."
Nina did not want to cause any trouble between John and Jessica, so she decided to give in. After all, if
John did not go see Jessica, she would be med.
"I''ll wait for you at the banquet hall, John. Just go see your sister." With a faint smile, Nina gently patted
John''s arm and gracefully stepped aside.
Nina was a clever woman. Hering here was a deal between the two of them. She had agreed to
"Okay. Wait for me." John''s dark eyes narrowed slightly. He spoke in a low voice. There was no
expression on his face, but he was already missing her.
Nina dipped her chin in acknowledgement. The warm light shone on John''s handsome face, making
the expression on his face look soft. Her heart skipped a beat when she looked into his eyes.
"I''ll see youter," she then said softly. She watched as John left with Yvonne.
As John disappeared at a corner, the smile on Nina''s face gradually receded. In a few moments, she
returned to her usual cold face. She took out a strawberry-vored lollipop from her coat pocket and
put it in her mouth. Nine was sitting quietly beside her. She then said in a casual tone, "Let''s go, Nine.
I''ll take you on a little stroll."
Nine was so excited that he wagged his tail wildly and followed Nina. They took a walk in the big
courtyard. Nine walked ahead of Nina but stopped and waited for her whenever she fell too far behind.
Nine''s snow-white coat looked orange and warm in the light.
After getting along with Nine for only two or three days, Nina was no longer afraid of him.
In fact, Nina found the dog to be excellentpany. Because of Nine, she gradually forgot her
prejudice against dogs. She actually enjoyed hanging out with him. She felt rxed and less lonely.
"Good dog, Nine. Thanks for waiting for me." In her high-heeled shoes, Nina squatted down and gently
patted Nine''s head. His soft coat felt smooth against her palm. She found itforting.
Nine was so happy that he jumped up at Nina and started licking her face. Nina lost her bnce at
Nine''s sudden move and fell on her butt. She started giggling as Nine continued top at her face.
"Okay, Nine. Easy there, boy," Nina said in between snickers. She tried her best to calm the excited
dog down, but he was just too happy. It even came to a point where she was already in tears because
ofughing too hard.
Soon, Nine simmered down. Nina remained on the ground and scratched Nine behind the ear. She
smiled at him and said, "You are just like your father, aren''t you?" Since John was Nine''s owner, Nina
had always considered him as the dog''s father, and she considered herself as Nine''s sister. After all,
she was still young.
John had no idea about it.
"Hey, is that Nina? Why is she sitting on the ground and ying with a dog?" A sarcastic voice rang in
the air apanied by the sound of footsteps.
The footsteps wereing from two people, one light and the other heavy.
Nina slowly got on her feet and looked up. Two women wereing in her direction. She knew only
one of them.
One was Isabe who was wearing a light blue dress with frills. The other one, who was in a ck
tassel skirt, was the one who had just spoken. Although she was not as thin as Isabe, her face was
smaller and more exquisite.
And on it were hostile eyes looking straight at Nina.
"Let''s go, Nine." Nina seldom talked to people she did not know.

"Stop!" The woman shouted at Nina like she was her property. How dare she ignore her?
In her eyes, Nina was arrogant. She just acted as if she had not heard anything and started walking
away with the dog.
Soon, the two women were standing face-to-face with Nina. A hint of cruelty shed through Isabe''s
eyes. She said, "Nina, this is Ad Zhu, Mr. Zhu''s daughter and a big shot in the entertainment
industry. How could you be so impolite?"
It seemed that Isabe was goading Nina, but in fact, she was provoking Ad Zhu into dealing with
her.
"Mr. Zhu?" Nina stopped and looked at the heavily made-up face of Ad Zhu. Nina roughly estimated
her age to be between eighteen and twenty-four years old. Nina had met Mr. Zhu, and he was only a
few years past thirty. It was impossible for him to have a daughter as old as Ad.
"Are you sure you''re Mr. Zhu''s daughter?"
"Mr. Zhu is my uncle. But he has always treated me like his own daughter," Ad Zhu answered,
raising her head proudly.
She was not Mr. Zhu''s biological daughter after all. That made more sense.
"Do you know Mr. Zhu?" Isabe thought quickly and asked Nina the important question. It was known
that Mr. Zhu liked groping women. If Nina knew him, it would mean that she had had an affair with him.
Nina did not answer right away. Assuming Nina''s answer was yes, Isabe wrinkled her nose and
smiled viciously. She turned her head at Ad Zhu and said, "Ad, looks like Nina knows your uncle.
We should just leave her alone for that."
"Why? Are you scared of her? In case you''re forgetting, she has framed you. If it weren''t for the Ye
family''s help, the Zhang family had gone bankrupt." Ad spoke straightforwardly. What she said just
made Isabe''s face turn deathly pale.
"But that''s all over now. Nina is James'' girlfriend. We can''t afford to offend her." Isabe''s bravado
vanished into thin air. She now looked poor and dejected. Nina even felt a little sorry for her.
Ad Zhu sneered, "James has already dumped her. In fact, I saw him talking andughing with
another woman."
"What? Really? How could that be? Nina, is that true?" Isabe was surprised. She looked like she was
worried about Nina, but deep inside, she was actually pleased.
Since James would not protect Nina anymore, it was time for Isabe to take revenge.
Nina was rendered speechless by the conversation that just took ce in front of her.
They truly disliked her but apparently not enough to do their homework. They did not exert enough
effort to find out that she and James were just friends. They were terribly misinformed.
Nina simply replied, "James is just my friend. I''m not here with him tonight."
"Oh? Then with whom have youe?" Isabe asked curiously.
The one who brought Nina here tonight was probably her backer. Isabe needed to be cautious. She
was afraid that she would cause another bout of trouble, so she had to tread carefully.
