"Mr. Han, I think you’re overestimating yourself."
"Although Xiao Xi hasn’t forgiven all these years, I’m still her father, that’s an undeniable fact. I nurtured her into such an outstanding person, and now she’s your wife. Shouldn’t you repay in so way?"
Han Guanghong’s fawning voice carried a hint of threat. Right now, Lu Jinghan was his only hope. If no more funds were coming in, the company’s projects would be stalled, and the money invested before would just go down the drain.
Lu Jinghan exhaled a puff of smoke, tapping his cigarette-holding fingers lightly on the table, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"Is Mr. Han trying to negotiate terms with over Xiao Xi?"
Han Guanghong noticed the anger in Lu Jinghan’s voice and quickly explained, "Jing Han, you’ve misunderstood. I just hope you can extend a helping hand on account of raising Han Xi."
"How much does Mr. Han need to overco the crisis?"
"Ten million, ten million will be enough."
Seeing Lu Jinghan relent, Han Guanghong finally smiled.
"I’ll arrange for soone to transfer the money to you, but I hope you don’t bother Xiao Xi again in the future."
Lu Jinghan was already aware of the financial difficulties Han Guanghong’s company was facing. He had co to the company looking for him several tis, but at that ti, he was accompanying Han Xi in Lin City. Now Han Guanghong had called Han Xi, and he wouldn’t give up until he got the money.
Lu Jinghan just didn’t want him to harass Han Xi, which is why he agreed.
"I promise I won’t trouble Xiao Xi again, I promise."
After hanging up, Lu Jinghan called Feng Yi, asking him to arrange a transfer of ten million to Han Guanghong.

At dinner, Han Xi was woken up by Lu Jinghan. She sat up groggily from the bed, leaning her head on Lu Jinghan’s shoulder, her voice soft and husky from just waking up: "Honey, what ti is it?"
"It’s past seven, hurry and get up for dinner, Grandpa is already waiting downstairs."
Han Xi exclaid in surprise, having forgotten she wasn’t at her own ho: "Why didn’t you wake up earlier?"
Lu Jinghan’s lips curled with a doting smile, "I wanted to let you sleep a little longer, afraid you’d complain of being tired tonight."
"Lu Jinghan, you’re so inappropriate. Who said anything about doing that with you tonight?"
"What are we doing tonight? Explain, I don’t quite understand, hmm?"
Lu Jinghan’s attractive fingers gently lifted Han Xi’s chin, forcing her to et his gaze.
Han Xi felt like she had fallen into a trap again.
"Baby, what do you want to do with tonight, hmm?"
Lu Jinghan’s deep eyes held a hint of desire, his thin lips brushing against Han Xi’s ear, every breath stirring on her most sensitive spot.
Han Xi’s heartbeat was in utter chaos; this couldn’t go on, or sothing would really happen.
"Jing Han... let’s hurry downstairs for dinner, Grandpa is still waiting."
Lu Jinghan wrapped his long arms around Han Xi’s waist; there was no way she could escape, "Stop ssing around, or Grandpa will get anxious waiting."
"Baby, first tell what we’re doing tonight?"
Lu Jinghan’s seductive voice was incredibly enticing, his dark eyes fixed unblinkingly on Han Xi’s slightly flushed face.
"We’re at the old house, let’s not... let Grandpa find out, that would be so awkward."
"Then just keep your voice down, so Grandpa won’t hear."
