Chapter 260: Lu Jingye: I Suddenly Feel Like Having an Exchange of Pointers With You
Rick smiled, but there was a ma.s.sive storm in the depths of his eyes.
He took out his phone and brought out the video recording that contained the first half of the conversation he had with Zi Yi. With an expression as if concerned about a friend, he said, “As you know, I’ve always wanted for you to become my brother-in-law. Therefore, I was concerned about your relations.h.i.+p. If you truly have someone you like, I won’t say anything about it. Therefore, I went to meet with the woman in the rumors.”
After he said that, he deliberately asked, “You won’t be angry, right?”
Lu Jingye did not answer him, but he took Rick’s phone and checked out the recording.
When Zi Yi mentioned wanting to have Rick’s entire a.s.sets, Rick sneered. “Take a look, this woman is very greedy. If she is someone you like, you have to be careful.”
Lu Jingye lowered his eyes and thought, “So this is what she likes.”
He then subconsciously calculated the a.s.sets he had under his name and wondered if she would be happy if he transferred them to her.
He did not reveal his thoughts on the surface as he intended to continue watching the recording. However, the recording stopped.
Lu Jingye immediately understood Rick’s intentions and his eyes slightly darkened.
Rick added, “Lu, not only is that woman greedy, but she’s also very violent.”
“You made her retaliate?” Lu Jingye suddenly stared at him.
“Uhmm…”
Rick was momentarily stunned and subconsciously retorted. “No, she was the one who injured two of my bodyguards.”
Lu Jingye suddenly stood up and looked at him with an elegant and easygoing expression. “I suddenly feel like having an exchange of pointers with you.”
“Right now?”
“Yes.”
Lu Jingye took off his jacket and placed it on the chair beside him and said with a serious expression, “It’s s.p.a.cious here. We’ll fight here.”
Rick stared at Lu Jingye’s gentle face and very much wanted to see through his thoughts. However, he could not infer anything.
It appeared as if Lu Jingye had merely suddenly changed his mind and wanted to exchange pointers with him.
But he knew that based on his understanding of Lu Jingye, that would not be the sole reason. As for the real reason behind his actions, Rick did not wish to admit it.
However, a wave of great anger surged from within.
How was his younger sister lacking in any aspect? She was beautiful and n.o.ble. Could it be that she can’t even compare with a woman that has such a bad reputation?
Rick tried his best not to let his anger show and similarly, he took off his jacket.
The two of them headed to the wider s.p.a.ce and directly started to fight.
When the two groups of bodyguards outside heard loud impact sounds, Rick’s bodyguards wanted to enter at once.
However, they were stopped by Lu Jingye’s bodyguards.
“Second Young Master has said that no matter what movements happen inside, it is a friendly exchange between him and Mr. Rick. No one is allowed to enter and disturb them.”
…
Back in school, Rick had never expected he would be unable to defeat Lu Jingye.
And after so many years, where he had even specially invited several martial arts masters to train him, he still failed to win.
Even though Lu Jingye appeared gentle and harmless on the surface, he was ruthless when he released his punches.
Lu Jingye looked at Rick who could not get up from the ground and insincerely said, “Apologies.”
Rick convulsed in pain, how could he have the spare effort to listen to his apology?
Lu Jingye did not help him up either as he went to pick up his jacket and said, “It’s my grandfather’s birthday tomorrow. I still have many things to attend to. You should go back to your hotel and have a good rest.”
Having said that, he turned to leave.
As for Rick lying on the ground, he gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted, “Lu Jingye, have you ever even regarded me as your friend!”
Lu Jingye’s gaze turned chilly when he heard his shout and directly made his way downstairs.
After he left the clubhouse and got in the car, he took out his phone and gave Zi Yi a call.
Zi Yi had already returned to the bar and was somewhat surprised to receive a call from Lu Jingye. She answered the call and the corner of her lips uncontrollably curled up. “Ah Jing, how come you’ve got the spare time to contact me?”
Lu Jingye said, “I just happen to be outside. Where are you?”
“I’m at the bar.”
“I’m near the bar.”
As expected, there was unconcealed joy in Zi Yi’s voice. “Ah Jing, are you coming over?”
Lu Jingye could not help the smile creeping up his face. He looked up and saw the cake shop near him. “Yes, I’m coming over.”
Zi Yi’s eyes turned into crescent moons. “Okay!”
Lu Jingye came out in a low profile manner today and the car he took was one that he rarely rode in.
He had not worn his suit jacket after taking it off for the fight with Rick and currently, there was already an inflow of customers on the streets surrounding the bar.
When his car stopped outside Zi Yi’s bar, the people nearby only took a glance in his direction and paid him no attention.
Zi Yi was already waiting for him by the door. Upon seeing Lu Jingye alighting with cake and milk tea in his hands, she immediately ran over and pulled him inside.
Lu Jingye gently smiled as he watched the young lady take the milk tea from his hands and slowly drink. “I just happened to see a cake shop on my way. I don’t know if their cakes are delicious or not.”
Zi Yi took out a small cake from the bag in his hands and took a small bite. She nodded and said, “It’s delicious.”
Following that, she fed the rest to him. “Have a taste.”
Lu Jingye opened his mouth and ate the remaining half of the cake.
“How is it?”
“Delicious.”
She was delighted at his response. While drinking the milk tea, she took his hands and headed inside. “The other renovation materials will be arriving tomorrow. It’ll take at most a week before the bar’s renovation will be completed.”
“When do you intend to open for business?”
“Probably around mid August. I have to go abroad after that.” She had to make a visit to the energy company she had taken over.
Lu Jingye suddenly tightened his grip on her hands and asked, “A vacation?”
Zi Yi looked at him, giggled, and asked instead of answering, “Don’t tell me you can’t bear to be apart from me?”
She then clung to his shoulders and kissed the corner of his lips. “I will miss you.”
Lu Jingye was amused by her. He circled his arms around her waist and asked, “When are you leaving and when will you come back?”
Zi Yi gave him the specific dates and he nodded in response.
He would be busy for a period of time after his grandfather’s birthday. It was also good that she was going out to play. At the very least, he did not have to worry about someone else bullying her while he was not in the capital.
Lu Jingye did not stay for long as he had originally only taken time out to leave the company to see Rick.
After they conversed for a while more, he left.
Zi Yi held the milk tea in her hands and watched the robots renovate. Little Loli stood beside her and revealed a dreamy expression as she held her face. “Oppa[1] Lu is so gentle and considerate. Master, that cup of milk tea in your hand must be very delicious?”
Zi Yi turned around and coldly asked, “Who allowed you to call him like that?”
Little Loli answered matter of factly, “The green tea b*tches in television dramas would always call handsome men oppas.
Zi Yi: “…”
So the Little Loli was intending to go on the route of a green tea b*tch?
