Chapter 991: Chapter 985: Teach Him a Lesson
Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing’s expression slightly changed. If Bai Zhiqing were to ask his brothers, he might be able to ensure that others wouldn’t talk carelessly, but Tie Niu, with his big mouth, might spill all his past affairs, especially after getting drunk. If Bai Zhiqing found out he had already had intimate contact with Angel, it wouldn’t just be Mu Qingxue’s issue anymore.
Seeing Bai Zhiqing’s gaze, Lu Tianxing quickly said, "Wife, don’t misunderstand. Whatever you want to know, I will be completely open and honest."
After saying this, Lu Tianxing added in his mind that, of course, the incident where Mu Qingxue drugged him and pushed him down must never be mentioned...
"Is that so? Then can you tell me why Mu Qingxue treats you with such favor, like she’s ready to offer herself to you?"
"Those were the old days. How would I know she’d latch onto me?"
Lu Tianxing took a deep breath and said, "Wife, you heard from Lin Demon earlier that when I was in Beijing serving in the army, I once saved Mu Qingxue’s life by chance."
"Beijing?"
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing slightly furrowed her brows, a flash of insight crossing her mind: "Are you the man in Mu Qingxue’s song, the one she referred to as the Ugly Duckling?"
"Yes, it was indeed me."
Looking into Bai Zhiqing’s eyes, Lu Tianxing, knowing he couldn’t hide the truth anymore, could only smile bitterly and nod.
Upon hearing this from Lu Tianxing, Bai Zhiqing snorted coldly and said, "Lu Tianxing, do you really believe what you’re saying? Nothing happened, and just because of a heroic rescue, Mu Qingxue is dead set on marrying you, and she can’t forget you all these years, staying loyal to you? Who are you trying to fool? Do you and Qian Ru think we’re idiots?"
"But I’m telling the truth."
"The truth?"
Bai Zhiqing laughed coldly, "Qian Ru, do you believe what he says?"
Lin Qianru quickly shook her head, "No."
Lu Tianxing suddenly found himself speechless; damn it, why is it so hard for people to believe the truth!
"Lu Tianxing, if you’re going to fool me, at least come up with a better excuse. Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? Or are you acting like in a drama, where after a hero rescues the beauty, the beauty has to marry the hero? Stop dawdling and come clean now."
Hearing this, Lu Tianxing felt a headache coming on. Forget about Bai Zhiqing, even he wanted to know why, after rescuing Mu Qingxue, whom he only met once, Mu Qingxue fell in love with him. View the correct content at fr\eewe.bn(o)v\el.c(o)m
"Wife, Qian Ru, I’m really not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, you could ask around or check with Sima Lingyun, Han Zifeng, and see if what I said is true."
"Sima Lingyun, Han Zifeng?"
Bai Zhiqing sneered, "Han Zifeng is your brother, of course, he would cover for you. Sima Lingyun is the leader of the Yanhuang Group, do you think he has the time to chat about this?"
"Then why not ask Mu Qingxue directly?"
"Lu Tianxing, are you trying to infuriate me?"
Bai Zhiqing said with annoyance, "You want me to ask Mu Qingxue? How am I supposed to approach it, should I bluntly ask her if she intends to marry my husband just because he saved her once? Do you think that’s an appropriate way to ask?"
"I... "
Lu Tianxing opened his mouth, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word. Asking Mu Qingxue like that would embarrass her, and the two might not even stay friends afterward.
Seeing Lu Tianxing fall silent, Lin Qianru suddenly said, "Tianxing, why are you quiet now? Is it because, like Zhiqing, you’re hiding something from us?"
"Yeah, keep talking, I insist on getting to the bottom of it today," Bai Zhiqing chimed in.
"Brother, where are you? Someone is looking for you downstairs."
At that moment, a crisp voice echoed in the villa, and soon a figure, as ethereal as a sprite, appeared in Lu Tianxing’s view.
Seeing Mandala at that moment, Lu Tianxing looked as if he had found a savior, quickly standing up and saying, "Wife, someone’s looking for me downstairs. I’ll head down first, bye."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Tianxing had already appeared at the balcony door, hastily pulling the newly arrived Mandala downstairs.
Watching Lu Tianxing hurriedly leave, Bai Zhiqing didn’t show any anger, instead wearing a faint smile.
Lin Qianru also had a smile on her face. "Zhiqing, you know full well that Tianxing is telling the truth, that he just saved Mu Qingxue’s life and nothing else happened. Why do you press so hard?"
"Qian Ru, you knew I believed him?" Bai Zhiqing curiously asked upon hearing Lin Qianru’s words. f.r e\ewebnov(e)(l).c om
"Of course, we’ve been best friends for years. If I couldn’t tell whether you were genuinely angry or just pretending, then all those years of friendship would mean nothing," Lin Qianru replied softly.
"You understand me, Qian Ru. Lu Tianxing indeed wasn’t lying, but this guy has such strong romantic luck that who knows when he might bring home another blooming peach flower for us. I need to give him a warning in advance, a lesson," Bai Zhiqing said indignantly.
Lin Qianru showed a touch of empathy on her face upon hearing Zhiqing’s indignant words. The "peach blossom" Bai Zhiqing referred to included her, yet Bai Zhiqing said "us" at the end, evidently including her as one of them, which was touching.
"Zhiqing, thank you," Lin Yafei expressed her gratitude.
"No need to be polite. Now we are allies, and from now on, we must work together to prevent Lu Tianxing from stepping outside our line," Bai Zhiqing said solemnly, holding Lin Qianru’s hand.
"Mm!"
Lin Qianru looked at Bai Zhiqing and nodded heavily.
Completely unaware that the two women upstairs had already formed an alliance, Lu Tianxing let out a long breath of relief after pulling Mandala outside.
Seeing Lu Tianxing sigh, Mandala said with a strange look, "Brother, why are you sighing? Did you do something wrong to sister-in-law and only feel relief seeing me coming, escaping from the lion’s den?" noveldrama
"Get lost."
Lu Tianxing rapped Mandala’s head lightly in exasperation, "Do I seem like that kind of person to you? By the way, who exactly is looking for me?"
"Seems like someone from the Liu Family,"
Mandala thought for a moment, tilting her head and said, "Brother, last time you embarrassed the Liu Family at the Yunwu Private Restaurant. Are they here for revenge this time? Should I quietly poison them, so once he returns to the Liu Family, the poison spreads, and unless they’re a mythical level expert, I guarantee no one below that can survive."
