Chapter 135

Ji Qingqing wanted to put down the shoes that she was carrying, but Lu Lixing glanced at her before he said, “Continue carrying the shoes.”

Ji Qingqing continued to hold onto her shoes and said in an aggrieved tone, “Hubby, will you believe me if I tell you that I’m innocent?”

——“Life value + 1, Host currently has eight hours to live.”

“I’m telling you the truth. I’m innocent! Ji Qingqing realized that she was acting somewhat unreasonable, so she calmed herself down before she stated, “I have nothing to do with this deal. I’ve been accused of something that I’ve never done. Hubby, you have to trust me.”

——“Life value + 1, Host currently has nine hours to live.”

Lu Lixing looked at her meaningfully and said, “You address me as ‘Mr. Lu’ when you don’t need anything, but whenever you run into trouble, you would address me as ‘hubby’. Ji Qingqing, it seems like you are pretty good at calculating, hm?”

“Isn’t it a hubby’s job to block the bullets...” Ji Qingqing muttered under her breath.

——“Life value + 1, Host currently has ten hours to live.”

Lu Lixing’s voice suddenly rose, “What did you just say?”

Ji Qingqing blinked her eyes innocently and said, “If you don’t like it when I address you as ‘hubby’, then I won’t address you that way anymore.”

Lu Lixing realized that he had shot himself in the foot. He froze for a moment before he said, “...That’s not what I mean.”

“Then what do you mean by what you had just said?”

Lu Lixing became disheartened as he fell silent.

“Fine, I apologize. I will withdraw what I had just said. Now, I want you to tell me your side of the story. I want to know the details.”

“I believe you.”

A powerful and resounding voice resonated in her ears.

Ji Qingqing’s heart skipped a beat, and her dimmed eyes brightened instantly. She smiled brightly at him.

She knew that Lu Lixing was not someone that will blindly take a side without listening to both sides of the story!

“We’ve been together for a long time, yet you have never sold your body.”

Ji Qingqing, “...?”

Why did it seem like he was secretly hinting at something?

Ji Qingqing hugged her chest with her arms and watched Lu Lixing warily.

Could it be that he was interested in her?

He was a healthy man, but he was not allowed to touch his beautiful and delicate wife...

Once this thought crossed her mind, she suddenly realized that it was entirely possible that he felt that way about her.

“I think it’s better if I share a room with Wen Rou tonight.”

Lu Lixing wrapped his arm around her waist, pulled her onto the bed, and then covered her with the blanket.

“Go to sleep.”
