Chapter 984: Chapter 984: President Qiao, rest assured, no one is my match Chapter 984: Chapter 984: President Qiao, rest assured, no one is my match Almost as soon as her voice fell, Lu Lingche appeared before her.
He embraced her in his arms, “What’s wrong?”
Qiao Yin lifted her head, staring at him blankly, “You didn’t leave?”
“No, how could I possibly leave when you’re here?”
“Then what about you saying you were going next door?”
“I tricked you, afraid that you wouldn’t soak if I were here. I planned to wait until you got in the water, then I’d jump into the hot spring so we could soak together.”
Lu Lingche lifted his hand and touched her face, “Were you scared? Afraid of being here alone?”
Qiao Yin hesitated for a mont but admitted, “A little scary, I don’t want to soak anymore, I want to go ho.”
She didn’t even bother scolding him for tricking her.
“Such a scaredy-cat, yet you like watching horror movies so much?”
“Maybe it’s precisely because I watch too many horror movies that my courage diminishes.”
“Still watching them recently?”
Qiao Yin shook her head, “No, I’ve been too busy lately, no ti to watch.”
“Stop watching them.”
“You don’t get to decide that.”
“If you really want to watch, you can call up. I’ll watch with you; with there, no demons or ghosts would dare to co close.”
“Why? Is your Four Pillars of Destiny special? Can you exorcise ghosts?”
“I don’t know if my Four Pillars are special, but I’m certainly uniquely ruthless. Even ghosts prefer to pick on the weak and avoid the strong. They’d keep their distance, seeing a devil like .”
Qiao Yin fell silent; he did have a knack for self-deprecation.
But his words were gentle now, nothing like a devil’s.
As she was pondering this, Lu Lingche suddenly scooped her up horizontally in his arms.
Qiao Yin startled, “What are you doing?”
“Taking you to soak in the hot spring.”
As he spoke, Lu Lingche carried her straight into the hot spring pool.
Qiao Yin was shocked, “My clothes are all wet!”
“It’s fine; I’ll have soone prepare a new set for you later.”
Lu Lingche’s clothes were also soaked; he had already taken off his suit when eating, and now his upper body had only a shirt on.
The wet shirt clung to his body, revealing his sexy and toned muscle contours.
Qiao Yin, imrsed in the warm water, settled down after the initial panic.
Since the clothes were already wet, she decided to soak; it would be a waste otherwise.
The cashre sweater was heavy when wet, so Qiao Yin simply took it off, leaving only her base layer on.
She half reclined on a smooth large rock, letting the hot spring water envelop her body, her legs lightly floating up; she sighed contentedly, “This place is nice; I should bring Yan Xi here next ti. I heard soaking in hot springs is beautifying and nourishing for the skin. After a soak, the skin looks especially good the next day. Yan Xi would love it.”
Lu Lingche wasn’t too pleased; he was soaking in the hot springs with Qiao Yin, yet all she talked about was Lu Yanxi.
Lu Yanxi held too much weight in her heart; every good thing she thinks of involves Lu Yanxi first, and he found himself a little jealous.
“Still thinking of Lu Yanxi now, not afraid of ghosts anymore?”
Qiao Yin, comfortably closing her eyes to enjoy the heat of the hot spring, said carelessly, “Aren’t you here? The ghosts wouldn’t dare to co with you around.”
Still, having received so acknowledgnt from her, Lu Lingche felt sowhat pleased. He lay down beside Qiao Yin and then grabbed her hand under the water.
Qiao Yin tried to pull away, but without success, she gave up.
But she suddenly rembered sothing and opened her eyes to look at Lu Lingche, “President Lu, I rember you said that you had given up the family inheritance rights and everything of the Corporation. Do you still have a say in the Corporation? Our collaboration talk tonight won’t be aningless, right?”
Lu Lingche held her hand atop his stomach, his tone carrying a hint of the arrogance not seen for a long ti, “President Qiao, rest assured. The Lu Family is old and weak now; no one can rival . Although I said I’ve given up the inheritance rights, just a dical check-up collaboration is at stake, and I’ll collaborate with whover I say we collaborate with.”
