Chapter 403: Chapter 403: President Lu, Your Face is Swollen

He didn’t usually monitor her, wouldn’t check on where she was, but not finding her at the Eastern Empire at noon and the odd way Dongfang Mu had been acting, he thought Dongfang Mu was intentionally tricking him, so he had his assistant track Qiao Yin’s location.

It took a while before he spoke again, “Get off, I will take you to lunch.”

Qiao Yin, pale with anger, replied, “My home is right in front of us. My grandmother has already prepared food and is waiting for me, am I crazy? Why should I go to eat with you instead of going home? Who knows if you are just going to say ‘get lost’ again.”

“I only said ‘get lost’ once, and you’re still holding a grudge, didn’t you also curse me out?”

“Am I petty? Yes. Can you ask Yuanshan to move? Your assistant is so loyal, blocking my car for you, without worrying about getting hit.”

If it weren’t for Yuanshan blocking her path, she would have been long gone instead of still arguing with him here.

“Answer my question and I will ask Yuanshan to move. How far have things developed between you and Dongfang Mu?”

Qiao Yin was annoyed, “He’s my boss, I’m his assistant, that’s all! I’ve told you, how many times will you ask?”

“Then who’s the father of the child you miscarried, him or me?”

Qiao Yin, stunned by his words, froze on the spot.

A cold chill sent shivers through her body, her mind nearly unable to function, “Lu Lingche, say that again?”

“I asked you whose child it is?!”

Qiao Yin’s tears swiftly started to fall.

Her body started to tremble uncontrollably, with rigid hands, she unbuckled, opened the car door, and got out.

She walked in front of Lu Lingche and slapped him across his face.

“Smack!”

After the clear, crisp sound of the slap, Lu Lingche’s cheek swelled up.

Tears flooded from Qiao Yin’s eyes, pouring out uncontrollably: “You, you cheated, got Lan Yuyi pregnant yet you think I also cheated like you did?”

“I stayed at home taking care of everything for you for three months after our marriage. The surveillance at home recorded all of my movements. Go back and see how long I was out for!”

“The first time I met Dongfang Mu, you were there too, I had never met him before!”

“The child I was carrying was already three months old, how could it be Dongfang Mu’s?!”

“You’re supposed to be smart, why are you asking these idiotic questions? The one who betrayed our marriage is you, Lu Lingche! I have never betrayed you, don’t try to shift your guilt onto me!”

After finishing speaking with trembling, Qiao Yin pulled Yuanshan, who was blocking the road, out of the way.

Then, she got in her car and drove away.

Lu Lingche watched as her car entered the residential complex, standing there for a long time without moving.

It was getting dark and the streetlights were on, shining on his slapped face.

His cheek was burning from the pain, the slap from Qiao Yin must have used all her strength.

His assistant standing next to him, said in a low voice: “President Lu, why did you really come to ask Miss Qiao this question? When the Chairman asked you, didn’t you said it wasn’t possible? Didn’t you know the child was yours? Why ask… why go through this?”

Lu Lingche did not look at him, but touched his own face and said, “She hit me with her right hand again.”

His logic was jumping around and his assistant was a bit confused, “Huh?”

“Her right hand was fractured before, it’s very likely to be fractured again this time.”

His assistant had an incredulous look on his face: “You’re worrying about Miss Qiao’s wrist? President Lu, you should be worrying about your face, it’s swollen!”

“I really shouldn’t have come to ask her.”

“Then why did you come?”

A look of confusion appeared on Lu Lingche’s face for the first time, “I don’t know.”

Every time it involved Qiao Yin, he seemed to lose his composure. Despite knowing it was impossible, he still wanted to confirm with her.
