Chapter 339: Ningning got confessed to!
Country P is very large.
Finding a stranger is like finding a needle in a haystack.
However, if you access the surveillance footage and find the other party's specific information, it becomes much easier.
Upon hearing Tina's words, Zelda seriously considered what had happened that day.
After a moment, she continued, "That day, after Olivia and I came out of the movie theater, we went shopping. I finished watching the movie at 1:30, and it takes about ten minutes to walk there, so the exact time should be around 1:40 to 2:00."
Tina nodded slightly and looked at Zelda, "Are you sure it's this time? If you are, I'll contact my friend."
“Wait a minute.” Zelda put down the pastry she was holding. “Let me check the movie ticket purchase record.”
"Ok."
Zelda immediately took out her phone and searched for her ticket purchase records.
After finding the ticket purchase record, Zelda continued, "That's right, the movie ends at 1:30! So, it should be around 1:40 to 2:00."
Tina started contacting her friends at the police station.
At that moment, Zelda's husband, John, came out from inside.
Zelda took a piece of pastry out of the box and handed it to him, saying, "Try this."
John took the pastry, took a bite, and exclaimed in amazement, "It's delicious! Where did you buy this?"
People in country P love desserts, so they have very high standards for them.
obviously.
John had never tasted a dessert with the same texture before.
Zelda shook her head. "It wasn't bought! Tina brought it. Tina said it was made by their wife herself."
John was even more surprised.
"Their wife is so approachable?"
Not only does she know how to make pastries, but she even gives them to her employees!
Zelda smiled and said, "I also think their wife is quite approachable."
Normally, the ladies who could live in a castle were all of high status.
Who would send snacks to their employees at home?
Totally impossible!
Tina had already sent the specific date and time to her friends. Hearing her sister and brother-in-law's words, she continued, "Our lady is Chinese, and it is said that this is a peach blossom pastry from China."
John finished one piece and took another. "Not only is it delicious, but the name is also nice."
He had never known that Chinese pastries were so delicious.
After finishing three peach blossom pastries, John finally remembered the important matter and asked, "Tina, is your friend confident he can access the surveillance footage?"
The Chinese heroine saved his daughter, and John, like his wife, wanted to find her benefactor and thank her properly.
“It should be fine,” Tina continued. “The surveillance cameras on East Street are usually cleared every three months. As long as the time period is correct, we can find them! It’s just that applying for access will be a bit slow.”
Surveillance footage isn't something you can just access whenever you want.
There are procedures to follow.
At this point, Tina looked at John and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, don't worry. I'll let you know as soon as my friend replies."

When Jiang Ning returned to her hotel room, Yue Qianlan was already asleep.
Menstrual bleeding can cause symptoms such as drowsiness and fatigue. In addition, Yue Qianlan also suffers from menstrual cramps, so she fell asleep on the bed shortly after Jiang Ning left.
Seeing that she was sleeping, Jiang Ning gently closed the door, took the things to the kitchen, quickly came to the room, and gently covered her with a blanket. Then she went to the kitchen to start decocting the medicine.
The medicine pot was a new one she bought. When she bought it, she also bought some brown sugar, red dates, and a few eggs at the nearby Chinatown supermarket.
Prepare the Chinese herbs and put them in a medicine pot to slowly decoct.
Jiang Ning picked up another pot and started boiling brown sugar water.
First, boil the brown sugar water, then add the eggs and red dates in that order. After boiling again, simmer over low heat for 15 minutes before drinking.
As luck would have it, just as Jiang Ning finished boiling the brown sugar water, Yue Qianlan, who was sleeping in the room, woke up.
Hearing noises coming from the kitchen, Yue Qianlan asked, "Ningning, are you back?"
“Yes,” Jiang Ning replied, carrying the boiled brown sugar water over. “In March, I boiled some brown sugar water. Drink it while it’s hot; it can relieve menstrual cramps.”
The Chinese medicine needs to be decocted for another two hours, reducing three bowls of water to half a bowl before drinking. Yue Qianlan hadn't eaten much this morning because of stomach discomfort, so drinking some brown sugar water now would not only relieve her stomach pain but also replenish her energy.
Seeing the brown sugar water that Jiang Ning brought over, Yue Qianlan's nose suddenly tingled with emotion, and she hugged Jiang Ning, "Ningning, you're so kind!"
"No one has ever been this kind to me except my mom!"
Not to mention her old friends.
She almost got ruined by those thugs.
There's another one who only wants to take advantage of her!
It was Jiang Ning who gave her a friendship she had never experienced before.
It was Jiang Ning who taught her what a healthy friendship is.
Jiang Ning smiled and patted Yue Qianlan on the back, "You're so good to me too! Go drink the brown sugar water."
"Okay, okay." Yue Qianlan nodded.
After drinking the brown sugar water, my menstrual cramps were indeed relieved quite a bit.
Two hours later, the Chinese medicine was ready.
Yue Qianlan is someone who hates bitter things. When she was sick before, her parents had to coax her for a long time before she would drink half a small sip of Chinese medicine. But today, she drank half a bowl of Chinese medicine in one go.
After all, Jiang Ning had spent the whole morning painstakingly preparing this medicine.
If she keeps dragging her feet and doesn't drink, wouldn't that be pretentious?
Jiang Ning immediately handed her a small sugar pill, "Eat some of this quickly, it will relieve the bitterness."
Yue Qianlan took the small sugar pill and popped it into her mouth. "Wow! It's so amazing, Ningning! After drinking the medicine, my stomach really doesn't hurt anymore! It doesn't hurt at all!"
I feel like my whole being has come back to life.
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "This medicine is quite effective, but it doesn't work that quickly! Is this just your imagination?"
"No, really no," Yue Qianlan continued, "After I drank the brown sugar water you made, my stomach only hurt a little, but after drinking the medicine, it doesn't hurt at all!"
"Ningning, you're a miracle worker, even better than Hua Tuo!"
Jiang Ning was so flattered by her praise that she almost became arrogant.
Yue Qianlan took out her phone. "Ningning, let's go to a riverside restaurant for dinner tonight! I heard the environment there is amazing, and many online celebrities in China have checked in there!"
"But doesn't your stomach hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, it really doesn't hurt anymore! Look, even when I jump, it doesn't hurt!" Saying this, Yue Qianlan even stood up and jumped around a couple of times.
"Alright then, but I heard that riverside restaurants need to be booked in advance. Is it too late for us to go now?"
"There's still time. There's nothing in this world that can't be solved with money!" Yue Qianlan said while operating her phone. "This time it's my treat. If Ningning dares to take it from me, I'm not going to be friends with you anymore."
Jiang Ning chuckled, "Alright, alright, then I'll give you a chance to show off."
"Then I'll go wash up and put on makeup first." When dining with a beautiful woman at a riverside restaurant, one naturally needs to look their best.
Because of a stomachache, Yue Qianlan had been lying in bed resting all morning and hadn't even washed her face.
“Okay,” Jiang Ning nodded slightly, “I’m going to work for a while. Just call me when you’re done with your makeup.”
"no problem."
Yue Qianlan hummed a song as she went to wash up.
Jiang Ning then took out her computer and started working.
Two hours later, Yue Qianlan changed her clothes, put on full makeup, and slung her beloved little bag over her shoulder. "Ningning, we can go out now."
"coming."
Jiang Ning closed her laptop.
Today she was dressed simply in a white shirt and black pants, with a pair of Martin boots on her feet. Although she wasn't wearing makeup, she was still breathtakingly beautiful, reminding one of the poem: "Her fingers are like scallion roots, her lips like vermilion, she walks with delicate steps, her beauty is unparalleled in the world."
This is why Yue Qianlan wears a full face of makeup.
Standing in front of a stunning beauty like Jiang Ning, it's easy to feel inferior if you're not fully made up.
18 PM.
It's completely dark now.
There were hardly any people in the hotel lobby.
The luxurious crystal chandelier illuminated the hall as if it were daytime.
As Jiang Ning and Yue Qianlan walked into the hotel lobby, rose petals inexplicably began to fall from the sky.
There was a lot of excitement.
For a moment, the air was filled with the fragrance of roses.
It smells good.
Before the two could react, a group of people in uniforms filed in from outside and then stood in two orderly rows, exuding an imposing aura!
Even Yue Qianlan, a wealthy heiress, was taken aback by the scene. She took Jiang Ning's arm and whispered, "Ningning, what are they doing? They look so serious! Are they the P country's troops?"
“They shouldn’t be from the military,” Jiang Ning said calmly. “Judging from their clothes, they should belong to the royal family of P country, so they should be royal guards.”
royal?
Upon hearing this, Yue Qianlan immediately asked, "Is it the Windsor family? The one with the castle we saw last time?"
“Yes.” Jiang Ning nodded slightly.
Three days ago, Yue Qianlan and Jiang Ning were visiting tourist attractions when they stumbled upon a luxurious and solemn ancient castle nearby.
It covers an area of more than 20 hectares!
At the time, Yue Qianlan was very curious about which family owned such a luxurious castle. After searching, she found out that it was actually the Windsor family's castle!
To Yue Qianlan's surprise, she actually ran into the Windsor family in the hotel lobby today.
This was Yue Qianlan's first time meeting the legendary royal family of P country, so she couldn't help but feel a little nervous. "Ningning, should we go out or not? I feel like we came down at the wrong time. It seems like they're going to hold some kind of ceremony."
"Let them do their thing, we'll go ours." With that, Jiang Ning led Yue Qianlan outside.
Royal guards stood on both sides of the corridor, and Yue Qianlan felt very nervous being stared at like that.
Just as I was about to walk out the door.
Will, dressed in royal attire, walked in from outside, carrying an ornate cane in one hand and a large bouquet of roses in the other. He stopped directly in front of the two of them.
To be precise, he stopped in front of Jiang Ning, stared intently at her, and spoke in a very high-profile manner:
"Miss Shi, hello. I'm Will Windsor. May I be your friend? I mean, boyfriend or girlfriend!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant carrying a gift box walked over from the side.
Inside the gift box lay a luxurious emerald necklace.
Yue Qianlan's eyes widened when she saw the necklace.
She recognizes this necklace!
While researching the Windsor family's castle, she also saw a news article about the Windsor family that said the emerald necklace had been worn by the former Princess Anya.
Significance.
Will continued, "Miss Shi, if you accept my confession, then this necklace that my grandmother once wore will be yours from today onwards!"
After saying that, Will looked at Jiang Ning with a determined look in his eyes.
He understands women too well.
That's why this whole thing was arranged.
What do women like?
First, money.
The necklace Will is going to give to Jiang Ning has been featured in the newspaper.
There is a price but no market.
Wearing this necklace, you'll be the most dazzling presence no matter the occasion.
Second, vanity.
He specially ordered the royal guards to clear the way, just to satisfy Jiang Ning's vanity.
Where can ordinary people easily meet these royal guards?
How could ordinary people possibly mobilize these royal guards?
this moment.
Jiang Ning must be the happiest woman in the world.
Except her.
Who else could be pursued by a lord from Country P?
And today will be the most meaningful day of Jiang Ning's life!
Will smiled slightly.
Presumably, this is how Jiang Ning sees things now.
He must be madly in love with her!
I don't know.
This is just a game.
The only one who got caught up in it was Jiang Ning.
In the end, only Jiang Ning was unable to extricate herself from falling in love.
And he!
He was the hunter from beginning to end.
Jiang Ning was just prey.
Yue Qianlan felt completely dazed.
At first, she thought that these members of the royal family were going to hold some kind of grand ceremony.
It turns out it was a confession of love!
As expected of nobles.
Even confessing one's feelings requires such a grand ceremony.
of course.
These are not the most important things.
Most importantly, the person who confessed his feelings to her was actually her best friend!
Yue Qianlan almost screamed.
Ahhhhh!
Although she was very excited, Yue Qianlan knew that the occasion was inappropriate, so she tried her best to calm herself down.
Jiang Ning stared at Will, who was holding flowers, her handsome and flamboyant face showing no emotion. Her eyes narrowed slightly before she spoke, "I'm sorry, Lord, you are not my type."
