Chapter 7: Big Bun Wants To Pay With His Body
Lu Tingxiao carefully sized up the woman on the hospital bed, scrutinizing her expression to see if it was real or fake.
After a long ti, he finally believed that she had not known about Little Treasure’s identity and circumstances. He calmly said, "State your request."
"Ah, what request?" Ning Xi did not understand at all what he ant by those three words.
"My brother ans to thank you for saving Little Treasure, so he’s asking if you have any requests!" Lu Jingli looked at her as though to say, you’ve hit the jackpot.
Ning Xi’s brain started to turn, and she said seriously, "Actually, you don’t have to thank . I saved Little Treasure, and in turn he also saved . If it wasn’t for Little Treasure going out to find soone, I would have still been trapped inside, so we’re even."
Although she had indeed saved the young master, how could she dare ask for a reward? The more money one had, the more likely they would beco deluded into thinking others were out to get them, especially since this was the Lu family, one of the wealthiest and most prominent families around. It would be good enough they didn’t think she had planned all this. Look at how wary Lu Tingxiao was when he watched her.
To avoid potential problems, it was best to end all relations with them here.
Ning Xi thought her reply was faultless, but Lu Tingxiao still looked dissatisfied. Seeing this, she felt fearful.
Did she say sothing wrong? Why was his face so scary?
"Brother, your expression is so scary, if I didn’t know you were trying to repay her kindness, I would have thought you were here for revenge!" Lu Jingli couldn’t help saying, as he couldn’t bear to see a beauty so frightened. He then turned to Ning Xi to say, "My brother doesn’t like to owe favors, so please just ask for sothing! Don’t be so courteous!"
Were there people who would actually force requests out of others?
Ning Xi curled her lips. "I’m not being courteous, but really, there’s no need. I’ve only said the truth, if you don’t believe , you can check…"
"No need," Lu Tingxiao said succinctly; his expression beca impatient.
Lu Jingli opened his mouth. "We’ve already checked the security cara in the bar storeroom. Little Treasure ran in there himself, and as for you, the manager has already admitted to locking you in there, so don’t worry. We don’t suspect you of anything, and you did save Little Treasure, so just request sothing!"
Amazing, now we’re back to where we started!
Finally, Ning Xi ran out of ideas, and under Lu Tingxiao’s chilling gaze, she gave in and said, "How about… you give money?"
Don’t all rich people like to solve problems imdiately with money?
Lu Tingxiao should also be the type to think the sa way!
If she didn’t ask for money, they might think she wanted one of the young masters instead.
Right when she believed she had made the right request, Lu Tingxiao’s expression turned even uglier.
Ning Xi was about to cry. Why did he have to be so taciturn? Can’t you just say what you want to say? Would a few words kill you?
Lu Jingli rubbed his nose as he translated, "My brother believes that giving money insults the other person."
Ning Xi’s heart was howling: No problem, just insult !!!
The Lu family was too unique, she really couldn’t think of a reasonable request at the mont. It was at this point in their stalemate that Lu Tingxiao opened his mouth —
"Marry ."
Ning Xi froze for a second, then began coughing heavily, almost choking herself to death on her own saliva. "Cough cough cough… what did you say?"
After finally succeeding in stopping her coughs, she imdiately looked at Lu Jingli.
Second Master, please translate!!!
But this ti, it was not just Ning Xi who was stumped; even Lu Jingli was also dazed. "Brother, what did you an? This ti, I really cannot translate!"
Ning Xi suddenly had a lightbulb mont. She asked in a haltering tone, "Is it because I saved your son that you’ve decided to repay with your body?"
Lu Tingxiao inclined his head slightly and thought about it before he nodded. "You could say that."
