Ye Xiaoxia bit her lower lip and took a step back. Unexpectedly, her shoulders felt heavy, and she jumped in fright as she looked back, only to realize that it was Lu Lichen who had placed both his hands on her shoulders, and said coldly: "Let's go."
Ye Xiaoxia really wanted to leave this place at this moment. Although she didn't want to leave with Lu Lichen, she knew that if she didn't go with him, she would be forcefully kidnapped by the Old Master Li.
Lu Lichen's hand slipped down, held onto her cold little hand, and then led her outside.
Old Master Li and the Ye Family members were so angry that their faces had turned white. When they could not see Lu Lichen's figure anymore, the Old Master Li turned around and roared at Ye Siyang: "Didn't you say that Ye Xiaoxia doesn't have a backer?! Let me tell you, you can forget about getting a single cent of the money previously given to you! All of you, return to me! "
Ye Siyang was also angry in his heart, but he did not dare say anything to the Old Master Li. He could only nod his head and bow: "Yes yes, this is my fault, I will immediately collect the money and give it to you."
Old Master Li said coldly, "I'll give you two days. If you still don't get your money after two days, then …" He paused for a moment, then looked at Ye Anning who was not far away, "Use your daughter as compensation."
Ye Anning was so frightened that her face changed drastically. Ye Siyang was also startled, and when she raised his head, Old Master Li had already walked out with big strides.
Ye Anning ran over with a flustered tone: "Dad, save me, I don't want to be taken away by that old man …"
What do we do? Ye Anning, who was originally full of himself, was now filled with jealousy towards Ye Xiaoxia. Why did Ye Xiaoxia get the Young Master Lu's favor!?
"I will think of a way. Don't worry, Rest in peace." Ye Siyang looked outside with a worried expression.
On the other side, after Ye Xiaoxia sat in Lu Lichen's carriage, she placed both of her hands on her knees and tightly held onto the clothes.
"Thank you, Young Master Lu …" Ye Xiaoxia felt an unbearable pain in his throat the moment he opened his mouth, even his voice was hoarse.
Lu Lichen did not speak, but his eyebrows slightly knitted, and his gaze landed on her body.
The way this woman lowered her head and looked at him was truly unpleasant to look at!
"I will repay your kindness …" Ye Xiaoxia continued.
"Still?" The corner of Lu Lichen's mouth hooked into an extremely faint trace of ridicule, "How are you going to repay me?"
Ye Xiaoxia pursed her lips, she really wanted to laugh, but that smile on her face was worse than crying.
"As much as I can." Her face turned pale, and she felt pain in her heart. Right now, she really couldn't afford to pay anything, not to mention that her target was Lu Lichen.
She was going to the hospital, and her mother was waiting for her.
With one hand against the window, Lu Lichen calmly looked at her with a hint of contempt in his eyes: "Ye Xiaoxia, what I just said, is not a joke."
Ye Xiaoxia stared blankly for a moment, then, she remembered what Lu Lichen had said at home just now. A hint of bitterness immediately surfaced in her heart, "Young Master Lu, this is only the first time we have met today, and we are even strangers."
Although she didn't know why Lu Lichen would go to her house or why he would say that she was his fiancee, they really weren't familiar with each other at all.
Furthermore …
Right now, she didn't have the qualifications to talk about marriage. She had already lost her virginity, and her target was a completely unfamiliar person she hadn't even seen before. How was she going to remarry like this, and … Brother Xianyan …
Thinking of Lu Xiuyan, Ye Xiaoxia's eyes suddenly filled with tears, and she could not help but droop down.
Lu Lichen's brows furrowed. Ye Xiaoxia said, this was the first time they met? If he remembered correctly, last night was the first time they had met.
But it seemed like Ye Xiaoxia could not remember that he was the one who spoke last night.
Speaking of which, it was a pure coincidence that he'd gone to Kaiser's Hotel. Gu Xuan had said that he'd prepared a surprise for him at 4508, and it was to break the rumours in the outside world that he hadn't gotten close to a woman.
Since it was Ye Xiaoxia's first time, he planned to compensate her afterwards. However, when he came out of the bathroom, he did not see her. It was only after investigation that she found out that Ye Xiaoxia was actually the daughter of the mayor who had caused a huge commotion recently.
So he was also a little interested in Ye Xiaoxia, he wanted to know, this woman, what she would do next.
When he thought about this, the corner of Lu Lichen's mouth raised into a smile: "Marry me, or be taken away by Old Master Li."
The choice Lu Lichen had given her was neither one she wanted, but the situation now was forcing her to make a choice. If he did not marry Lu Lichen, then after tonight, no matter what the Old Master Li wanted to do, she would not be able to resist. Unless she left A City.
But if they were to marry … There was a huge gap between her and Lu Lichen's identity. She wasn't even sure how she would go along her future path.
But at least, if she were to marry him, Ye Xiaoxia wouldn't have to worry about being sold off by Ye Siyang again for now.
Ye Xiaoxia was suspicious, but he did not have the patience to wait for Ye Xiaoxia to make a decision: "Have you considered it? I don't have that much time for you to think about it. "
"Alright." Ye Xiaoxia resolutely lifted her head and looked at Lu Lichen. His red and swollen eyes were filled with stubbornness as he replied, "I am willing to marry you, but, I still have one more question."
"Speak." Lu Lichen smiled charmingly, and was very satisfied to see that Ye Xiaoxia had compromised.
"I... It's not the first time, but you don't mind me being like this? "
Although this matter was somewhat difficult to deal with, it was the truth. She gave her all she had in order to save her father.
But in the end, it all came to nothing. Now, she had nothing to fear but her mother.
Lu Lichen did not say that he did not mind, and only said indifferently: "Did you bring the household ID card?"
"No …" Ye Xiaoxia shook her head, "The household booklet is still at home." But when she thought about the scene she saw at home just now, she probably couldn't find it.
Lu Lichen took out his mobile phone and called his assistant, Qi Xiu. "Find Ye Xiaoxia's account and send it to the Civil Affairs Bureau in half an hour."
"It's done now."
Looking at Lu Lichen, Ye Xiaoxia had a bad taste in her heart. She really couldn't understand why Lu Lichen was helping her.
"If you have any questions, just ask." Seemingly sensing Ye Xiaoxia's gaze, Lu Lichen said blandly.
Since she was discovered, Ye Xiaoxia did not hold back: "I want to know, why are you helping me? We don't know each other, you are the president of a big company, why should you take over the Ye Family's business? "
Ye Ming Sheng was the mayor, and the suspect was him taking bribes and corruption, in the eyes of others, they would think that he was a hot potato.
"Because …" Lu Lichen paused for a moment, then turned his head. With half-squinting slender eyes, he met Ye Xiaoxia's gaze, "I'm willing."
"Ugh …" This reason was truly strong enough.
Ye Xiaoxia was no longer obsessed with this issue, no matter what, she would benefit.
