If Lu Bojing was being honest to himself, then in fact, he was disappointed and angry at Mingshen for the first ti. If he had demanded soone's release among them, then why didn't he ask for Lihua's?
She was pregnant and in the most precarious situation here, but he chose him over her.
Lu Bojing's wet gaze glowered at Su Liao. "T-Tell Boss that I wo-won't co with you."
Su Liao was furious at his audacity.
Do you think everyone gets the chance to be free once caught by Boss? And here this bastard is acting adamant!
But he was more worried about the deal. If Lu Bojing refused, then wouldn't Mingshen pull back from this deal too?
"Boss…"
Jiang Zhen smiled. "Yang Mingshen wants you in exchange for his support for ."
Lu Bojing bit his lip. "I don't c-care what it is. But I won't leave Song Lihua's side."
Lihua's chest ward up with a fluffy feeling from his concern. Until yesterday, Lu Bojing couldn't even confidently look back at people. But now he was firmly facing Su Liao and Jiang Zhen without any fear.
All because he cared about her.
Lihua softly pulled him back. "Bojing, I am very touched by this. I am so happy that you like so much. I like you too, and that's why, please understand my side too. You were dragged into this-"
"No. I wasn't dragged," he whispered, "I t-told you, right? Boss sent to protect you. I insisted on accompanying you wherever you went so that I could watch over you. It was my order. It was my choice. S-So, please stop blaming yourself…I cannot leave you alone with Jiang Zhan here."
Her eyes brimd with tears, and she pinched his cheeks. "Aish! Why are you so cute?"
Lu Bojing blushed in embarrassnt.
Su Liao had enough of his arrogance, and he grabbed his arm to force him out. "We have to drive you out at any cost! Don't be a pain in the ass!"
But suddenly, the scene flipped over, and his back thrashed on the ground.
Lu Bojing had grabbed his wrist and overturned him as he twisted his arm. His one hand firmly squeezed his upper arm while his other hand was on his wrist.
"D-Don't force …"
Lihua's eyes sparkled.
So cool! Bojing looks so cool when he fights!
She squealed like a fan girl who idolized her favorite actor. The vast difference in his character from a soft, gentle and fearful boy to a ruthless and strong opponent was like a chef's kiss for her.
Su Liao widened his eyes. "You bastard! How dare you!"
He struggled and wriggled under his grasp but to no avail. Lu Bojing then rcilessly dislocated his elbow as if it was a walk in a park.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Jiang Zhen slowly widened his eyes as he saw the one-sided fight happening. His strength wasn't a joke.
Which suddenly brought a thought in his mind.
Lu Bojing...Lu Bojing...Lu...clan?
He stared at him from his head to toe, and then it was suddenly clear to him.
Lu clan? He is definitely from the Lu clan, isn't it? But Grandpa said that the Lu clan was already annihilated by granduncle Zhen.
Then…
He narrowed his eyes.
Is that why Li Dong is so interested in him?
He rembered the look on his face when Li Dong had learned about Lu Bojing and how he finished off his A team with ease.
I see...He is the sa boy.
Naturally, he understood Mingshen's interest in Lu Bojing too. He realized why he preferred an assistant over Wei's wife.
Lu Bojing is from the prestigious Lu clan. He was the last descendant of the clan. How could Lihua hold more importance than him?
No wonder Lu Bojing defeated my team so easily. The Lu clan was a force to be reckoned with.
Jiang Zhen leaned his arm on the table. "Lu Bojing. I don't care if you want to leave or not. But if you aren't at the Yang residence today, then Yang Mingshen would think that I am backing off from the deal and would instead stand against . I cannot let that happen."
Lu Bojing glanced at him. "I won't leave."
"Then you will have to tell that to him yourself. If I tell him, then he might think that I am being suspicious."
"I-I don't care. I will stay here only…"
Jiang Zhen shrugged and pulled out his phone. Two seconds later, he heard Mingshen's voice on the other end.
"Well, I cannot help it if your assistant refuses to leave."
He heard him say sothing and then handed his phone to Lu Bojing. "He wants to talk to you."
Lu Bojing shuddered. The phone looked really nacing to him. It was as if Mingshen's dark aura was sweeping out from the other side.
He gulped and tremblingly picked it. "H-Hello-"
"Co back, dear assistant. This is my order," Mingshen's voice sounded even more ominous. There was no option to disobey."
Lu Bojing burst into tears. "I-I-I won't co back."
"...Huh?"
"I said I won't co back. Why do y-you want back i-instead of her? I-I am just an assistant…"
"Are you questioning my decision?" It was now even more frosty.
Lihua tried to listen to their conversation.
Lu Bojing shed a river of tears as he sobbed. "Y-Yes I am. You are an…" he whispered, "You sent to protect h-her at any c-cost, but now you are o-only saying the opposite."
"Heh. Orders change, dear assistant. I do what is beneficial to at that ti."
Lu Bojing looked aggrieved. "Beneficial? S-So now will you really lend your s-support to Jiang Zhan?"
"I sense that you are not quite satisfied by my decision."
"I-I am not."
Silence.
"Lu Bojing. Co to the Yang residence right now."
"Why didn't you ch-choose Song Lihua? I will only co if s-she would be with too."
"Hooo... haven't you grown quite fond of that woman now that you are disobeying my orders?"
"I...I…"
Mingshen coldly said, "Stop with your nonsense and co back. I don't have ti for this."
His resentnt grew even stronger.
"I won't! Y-You are so an! How can you not c-care about Song Lihua anymore?" he cried hard, "You are bad! You are heartless! I won't listen to you! I am not coming back, you evil d-d-devil!" and Lu Bojing hung up.
