Chapter 358 - 358: I'll Agree to Any Conditions
Slim, long, as white as jade.
Even the veins that stood out on her hand from the excessive force were attractive.
Seeing that he did not respond, Qiao Yin shook his arm in a panic, "Lu Lingche! Are you going to save him or not?! Say something!"
Lu Lingche finally moved his gaze from her hand, answering indifferently, "It's your brother, not mine, why should I save him?"
Indeed, he had no duty to do so now.
Qiao Yin hastily said, "Then what can convince you to save him? You can name your condition!"
"I haven't thought about it."
"Then this is how it goes, you think it over slowly, but first, get my brother out. Human lives are of paramount importance, we can't delay!"
"Qiao Yin, do you take me for a fool? I save your brother, you then renegade, while I continue thinking, by the time I decide what I want, would you give it to me?"
"I would give it, I will for sure, no matter what it is, as long as I have it, and as long as it's not something unattainable like the stars and the moon!"
"Demanding for the stars and the moon, that's a foolish mistake you women would do, what would I do with that?"
"I was only giving an example, can you stop arguing?"
"Let me warn you, right now, you are begging me, not the other way around. What kind of attitude is this?"
Qiao Yin immediately lowered her head to apologize, "I'm sorry, you're right. Demanding for the stars and the moon indeed is a foolish demand from us women. I shouldn't judge others by myself. You are Young Master Lu, you can have anything you want, you can't possibly be interested in the stars and moon."
Lu Lingche frowned slightly, "Why do I get the feeling that you are mocking me?"
"Absolutely not, you're overthinking!"
Lu Lingche nodded, then turned his head to look outside again. It seemed like the torrential rain outside attracted him; he showed no interest saving someone.
Qiao Yin stood next to him, pulled his shirt lightly, begged him in a low voice, "Lu Lingche, can you lend a hand? My brother has been beaten up so terribly, I don't know when he would collapse. You save him, okay? Please..." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lu Lingche turned his head to look at her.
She wore a red dress today.
It reminded him of that somewhat crazy night.
At his and Lan Yuyi's wedding, she stormed in wearing a red dress, threw the divorce agreement at his face, then walked away proudly.
Looking perfect and extraordinarily cool.
Yet, he saw her in Dongfang Mu's office right after.
Furious, he took her away, ripped off her dress, and claimed her.
That night, he was particularly unrestrained. That was also the only peaceful sleep he had since her kidnapping.
When she was in his arms, he wouldn't have that terrifying nightmare.
"Qiao Yin."
"Hmm?"
"I could help you get your brother out."
Qiao Yin brightened up, her eyes lighting up with joy, "Really?!"
Looking at her beautiful eyes which were alight like stars, Lu Lingche's Adam's apple bobbed, "But there's one condition."
"What condition? Go on! I'll agree!"
The corner of Lu Lingche's mouth lifted in a subtle smile, "Alright, consider it settled then."
He rarely smiles. Now that he suddenly does, Qiao Yin knew something was up, "You didn't even say your condition."
"Didn't you agree to everything? Whether I say it or not doesn't matter."
"You must tell me, otherwise how would I know how to please you?"
Lu Lingche, looking at her indifferently, said, "Sleep with me."
"What did you say?!"
"Unwilling? Weren't you just agreeing to everything?"
"Don't you already have women? Why do you want me to sleep with you?"
"Who told you I have women?"
"Qiao Lainan, Lan Yuyi, aren't they your women?"
Lu Lingche's face suddenly turned sour, "They are not!"
