Where’s the best place to cut?

If I cut off a few fingers, my big brother wouldn’t get too mad, right?

He has already endured enough for long enough!

Lan Yuyi was scared and quickly retracted her hand.

Lu Lingche, however, with a malicious look in his eyes, kept staring at her hand, seemingly contemplating which finger to cut off.

Madam Lu noticed something was off: “Lingche, why are you holding that knife all this while? You’re scaring Yuyi; put it down quickly!”

Lu Lingche didn’t respond to her. Instead, he coldly glared at Lan Yuyi and said: “I’m not my elder brother; there won’t be a next time.”

Having said that, he forcefully slammed the knife into the wooden dining table with a loud clang.

A dead silence draped over the dining room.

Lu Mingzhen was displeased: “What are you doing? Can’t we just have a peaceful meal?”

Lu Lingche seemingly heard nothing, stood up and walked out straight away.

His assistant immediately followed him: “President Lu, are we headed to the Corporation?”

“Home!”

“Do I need to have someone prepare another breakfast for you?”

“No need, I’ll just go home and change my pants.”

His assistant was puzzled: “But your pants look absolutely fine?”

“They’re dirty.”

His assistant was still feeling puzzled. Where exactly did they get dirty?

At ten o’clock in the morning, Qiao Yin arrived at the office and started her work as usual.

Her colleagues gradually trickled in. Today was Children’s day, the company was planning a live fundraising event, complete with a notary for an official donation ceremony. It was destined to be a busy day.

Lu Yanxi arrived a bit later. The moment she arrived, she pulled Qiao Yin into her office with her red eyes: “Second Sister-in-law, did grandma have an accident last night? My Eldest Uncle called my dad, and asked him to rush back from abroad.”

“It’s all fine now, don’t worry.”

Qiao Yin summarised what happened last night and comforted her, “Grandma is now staying with my maternal grandmother. She’s very good at nursing people back to health. With her around, grandma living to the age of 100 is not an issue.”

Lu Yanxi heaved a sigh of relief, “That terrified me. Thank goodness nothing serious happened! Second Sister-in-law, your grandmother is really something! I heard the doctors at Lan’s Hospital had told her to prepare for the worst. I didn’t expect your grandmother can ensure a long life for her, she really is a miracle-doctor!”

Qiao Yin smiled: “Her skills are inherited from our family ancestors who were royal physicians. But calling her a miracle-doctor is a little exaggerated.”

Lu Yanxi hugged her arm: “Second Sister-in-law, I want to ask a favor from you.”

“Go ahead.”

“Chen Yuan’s mother is sick. I’d like your grandmother to have a look at her.”

“Sure, I’ll give you my grandmother’s address.”

“Thankyou, Second Sister-in-law!”

Lu Yanxi was very happy. After getting the address, she forwarded it to Chen Yuan and specifically emphasised that it was coming from a highly skilled miracle-doctor.

“Oh yeah, Second Sister-in-law, my Eldest Uncle said he would invest 20 million in my company on your behalf. From now on, the auction house would be our joint business venture!”

This investment left Qiao Yin a bit at her wits’ end: “He made this investment to thank my grandmother for saving grandma. I initially wanted to refuse…” “Why would you refuse? My uncle isn’t short of money. Since it’s to thank your grandmother, just accept it with peace of mind!”

Lu Yanxi was afraid she would turn down the money. She needed this investment: “The funds of the auction house are completely insufficient at the moment, I was thinking about expansion. We won’t be able to accommodate some treasures without your investing this money. With this investment, I can quickly become the number one in the city!”

She extends her hand to Qiao Yin: “To my first business partner, here’s to a pleasant collaboration!”

Qiao Yin laughed and shook her hand: “I look forward to your guidance, Boss Lu.”

“Sure, sure, haha!”

The two were happily chatting when suddenly they heard a commotion outside the office door.

After Qiao Yin listened for a moment, her face immediately turned pale. She hurriedly opened the door and walked out.

Lu Yanxi also hurriedly followed her out.

In the company lobby, Qiao Haidong was shouting: “Qiao Yin, come out! So you’re not a thing! You’re living a good life, while you’ve forced your younger brother to suffer in a rubbish high school.. Come out, explain this to me! Qiao Yin!”
