"..."
The next second, a loud door slamming echoed through the room.
Lu Jinyang sat up, a low chuckle escaping him as he stared at the tightly shut door.
Due to the vibration of his chest, the blanket slid down, exposing his strong, solid torso marred with a map of irregular marks.
Bare-skinned, he got out of bed; his broad shoulders and narrow waist would make any woman of the Empire scream for him.
Of course, that would certainly include Xiao Qing.
-
After last night’s communication, Lu Jinyang had no intention of keeping anything from Xiao Qing, so he brought her with him when he went to see Li Weonian.
It wasn’t until they reached the prison that they learned Li Weonian had gotten into an altercation during recreation ti and was injured.
While waiting, Xiao Qing asked Lu Jinyang with so concern, "What if he doesn’t want to et us?"
"No chance. Right now, we’re his only lifeline," he assured her.
As they spoke, a prison guard escorted over a man whose face was beyond recognition. If it weren’t for his unforgettable physique, Xiao Qing would suspect it was an imposter.
Above his neck, there wasn’t a single patch of normal skin color.
Xiao Qing withdrew her gaze silently, fearful she might burst out laughing at any mont.
Li Weonian started talking as soon as he sat down, "Lu Jinyang, I’m a dead man walking, I’ve got nothing to lose. Unless you get out of here first, don’t even think about getting any information from !"
"Sorry, I don’t have the capability to extricate soone from this place; as you know, it’s state property, and I’m just a businessman," Lu Jinyang responded.
Hearing this, Xiao Qing silently gave Lu Jinyang a thumbs-up. His response was not only skillfully flattering but also offended no one.
But Li Weonian was not buying it, "Are you kidding ? Major Lu, others might not know the extent of your power, but I know it all too well."
"Oh? Then why don’t you tell , who gave you the guts to ss with my company?"
"Of course, it was my cousin..." Suddenly realizing sothing was amiss, he stopped himself, not without so admiration, "They say Major Lu’s psychological tactics are aweso, and now I see it’s true. But if you think you can outsmart , you’re still too green."
Xiao Qing was embarrassed.
She never thought soone would describe Lu Jinyang, such a sly fox, with the word "green".
However, Li Weonian had ntioned his cousin. Could it be a relative? Xiao Qing imdiately thought of Li Weonian’s cousin, Song Zhiqing. But on second thought, it seed unrealistic; last ti she saw them, Song Zhiqing seed to be on good terms with Lu Jinyang. How could they possibly beco enemies?
She crossed this suspect off her list as the least likely.
She looked towards the man beside her, noticing his slender fingers lightly tapping on the table, his gaze slightly deep as if deep in thought.
Li Weonian, seeing he was being ignored by Lu Jinyang, turned his greedy gaze to Xiao Qing, "Major Lu, if you really want to know, let spend a night with the woman beside you, then I think I... Ahh!!!"
Before Li Weonian could finish his sentence, his voice abruptly shifted to an agonized scream.
The chilling sound of his scream made everyone who heard it tremble, yet no one stepped forward to help.
When Xiao Qing saw Li Weonian giving her that malicious smile, she had a hunch about what he was planning. But she didn’t know just how foolish Li Weonian was to make such an indecent proposal about sleeping with his woman, right in front of Lu Jinyang.
Even if she were just a plaything, she belonged solely to him now.
n take great pride in their possessions, especially won. Even seeing a beautiful woman with an ugly man on the street might irk so n.
In such tis, Li Weonian speaking those words left Xiao Qing speechless.
