Chapter 300: Godly Fire Extinguisher
"Mr. Lu, I didn’t an it that way. If your intention was for to spend more ti with Little Treasure, I can co over more often, as a friend." Ning Xi said.
"Are you rejecting ?" Lu Chongshan’s face darkened.
Not knowing if it was because of Lu Tingxiao's presence beside her, even under Father Lu’s terrifying pressure, she was still brave enough to say, "Yes".
"You’re being ridiculous!"
Lu Chongshan was always above everyone else and he was used to everyone obeying him, which explained why he could not handle a little artiste rejecting his offer. He exploded right there and then.
Lu Tingxiao kept silent and put his hand on Ning Xi’s chair. While he did not say anything, his assud a protective pose.
When Lu Tingxiao ca closer to her, Ning Xi relaxed.
The talk ca to a stalemate. The smooth talking Lu Jingli could not wait anymore and said, "Father, where’s your logic? Xiao Xi just had to say "Yes, I do" to brother and she would have the whole Lu family to herself, but if she doesn’t even want to beco my sister-in-law, do you think she’d care about the money?"
Lu Chongshan was infuriated as he slamd the table loudly, "You bastard, are you forcing to use the family punishnt!?"
"You always threaten us with the family punishnt every ti you lose an argunt…" Lu Jingli mumbled softly.
With both of his sons not on his side, he beca increasingly angry that point. As he was going to start yelling again, he felt a soft pat on his back.
He turned around and saw Little Treasure patting his back with his tiny hands. It seed like he was comforting him to not be angry as it was unhealthy.
Such a godly fire extinguisher, what kind of fla of anger would still survive?
Lu Chongshan was relieved instantly by the child's gesture, which worked better than any heavenly dicine. He said kindly, "My sweet child, you’re worried about grandpa, aren’t you?"
Lu Jingli saw his father’s gentle attitude towards Little Treasure and felt jealous, as he said, "Wow, why haven’t I seen you treat this kindly before? What a huge difference! Why am I the lowest ranking person in this family? Am I really your biological son?!"
Annoyed, Lu Chongshan replied, "Wait till you get married and bear so grandchildren, then we’ll talk about your place in the family!"
Lu Jingli cheekily replied, "Bye bye! I guess I’ll just stay here at the lowest level!" The price to pay for getting a higher status in the family was just too high for him.
Suddenly, the sound of a phone ringing interrupted the conversation.
Ning Xi quickly took out her phone to see that it was Xiao Tao. Only then did she realize that she was already half an hour late.
Ning Xi answered the call in a low voice, "Hey Xiao Tao…"
"Hello, Sister Xi, why aren’t you here yet? We’ve started shooting and the director is urging everyone to gather! I went to your room but no one answered the door! Where are you?"
"Ugh, I had sothing urgent to handle, I’m still currently on the east coast, and the soonest I can get there would take about an hour. Please help explain and apologize to the director!"
After ending the call, Ning Xi stood up and prepared to leave.
"Thank you for having here, but I still have so work to do, I need to leave first."
She looked at at her little bun and reluctantly left.
