Chapter 39 - “Let’s... sleep together for a night?” (3)

Ji Qingqing unhurriedly added food to her bowl. She really didn't want to bother with responding Lu Liting's goading. "Since you said yourself that the video has come out, then you should know that I didn't do anything wrong."

"It's true that it's not your fault, but why do you have to hold Weiwei accountable? She was injured because of you. The scar on her face might never heal!"

"What are you yelling at me for? I didn't push her." Ji Qingqing scoffed. "Stop slandering me. It's clear in the video that I didn't cause her injuries."

If you were going to argue reason, Ji Qingqing was bold and confident with justice on her side.

"If you didn't go looking for her to cause her trouble, she wouldn't have gotten injured."

Ji Qingqing looked at him in surprise. "How did you know I went looking for her to cause her trouble? Do you have evidence?"

And now, you're back to inherit your family's business because your older brother is dying. Could you at least put up a pretense? For the Lu family's money, I'll at least stay here to take care of Elder Lu. But what about you? You're gone all day. They're your close relatives. One is seriously ill, and the other is old. They both need people to care for them! Even my heart feels chilled that they're going to give away their assets to an ungrateful and vicious mongrel!"

“Ji Qingqing! This is the Lu family's private matter. It has nothing to do with you!"

"She's your older sister-in-law. Tell me, do you think this has nothing to do with her?" A low voice came from the dining room's entrance.

Ji Qingqing's heart skipped a beat. When she turned her head to look, she saw Lu Lixing.

How could someone so sick recklessly run around? Isn't that just asking for death to come sooner? Did he want to die?

Ji Qingqing's indifferent and arrogant face immediately turned into a bullied and well-behaved one. She fluttered to Lu Lixing's side like a little bird. "Why did you come down? Your body isn't well. You should go back to your room and lie down."

Lu Lixing saw how fast she was able to change faces. "I'm fine. I just came down to take a stroll."

Lu Liting saw these two making eyes with each other, and his heart felt itchy from annoyance. "Older brother, I won't beat around the bush. This woman harbors bad intentions. We used to be together, but she dumped me for a second generation rich brat!"

Lu Lixing coldly looked at him. His eyes had a chilliness that was hard to pin down. "Lu Liting, listen to me. I don't care about your past relationship with Ji Qingqing. She's your older sister-in-law now. In this family, as long as I'm alive, you're not allowed to bully her!"
