Chapter 1185: What’s Mine is Yours
The sight of Ah Xiao was hard for anyone to look at. Her beautiful face was completely twisted and misshapen. Tears and blood flowed from her face as her nose dripped.
She had realized her mistake.
She was really afraid now.
He hadn’t revealed much of himself ever since he entered, but there was an air of malice and darkness all around him. He stood tall protecting the two women as he stared at her coldly. It was as though he was looking at an ant beside his feet.
Even now, Lu Yeming really was handsome. There was a sort of unspeakable wildness to him as well. Everything and everyone bowed down before him.
Lu Yeming didn’t take a second look at Ah Xiao. A few black-clad men dragged her away.
“Ah, my clothes!”
At this moment, Tang Mo’er left his embrace and ran forward. She bent down to pick up her clothes.
Ah Xiao had thrown her clothes on the floor just now and even stepped on it. She patted the clothes hard to get rid of the dust on it and her eyebrows knitted together in sadness.
His arms empty, Lu Yeming retracted his hands. His eyes chased after Tang Mo’er.
Walking over to her, he lowered his handsome face to look at the woman kneeling in front of him. Her black hair cascaded down her shoulders like water.
“Just leave it if it’s dirty. I can buy you another one.” His lips curved up slowly as he rea.s.sured her.
“No. This is the dress Lingxue designed for me. I love it-” Tang Mo’er suddenly hissed as the pin on the dress p.r.i.c.ked her.
Lu Yeming’s pupils shrunk as he quickly bent down. His long fingers steadies her hand. “Let me see.”
Her finger was oozing blood.
“It’s fine.”
Before she could finish, Lu Yeming put her finger into his mouth. With her finger trapped in his mouth, Tang Mo’er’s eyelashes quivered.
In the next second, she pulled her hand back forcefully. Her movement was harsh and unexpected.
Lu Yeming’s eyes moved slightly and he raised them to look at her. His expression didn’t change at all and his lips curved upwards as he asked, “Elder Sis, what’s wrong?”
Tang Mo’er looked at him and said with a laugh, “Don’t worry, my hand doesn’t hurt anymore.”
She stood up. “Excuse me, how much is this dress? Can we have the bill please?”
“Yes, Miss Tang. Please follow us.”
Tang Mo’er followed the sales a.s.sistant to the cas.h.i.+er.
“Miss Tang, this dress will be $42,000 dollars.”
“Alright, use my card.” Tang Mo’er opened her handbag to take her card.
Before she could do so, a large hand reached over and pa.s.sed the sales a.s.sistant a gold-gilded black card. “Use this.”
The sales a.s.sistant raised her head. Lu Yeming had walked over, his tall figure behind Tang Mo’er.
These two siblings really were good looking. There were no flaws to be found at any angle at all. They would even look like lovers if they weren’t related.
“Yes, West Duke,” the sales a.s.sistant said as she received the black card.
But a slim hand reached over and s.n.a.t.c.hed the gold-glided black card away.
Tang Mo’er turned around and pushed the card back into his hands. “Yeming, keep this well. Even though Elder Sis is no longer working, I have no lack of money. I’m not in such dire conditions to require your money yet.”
Lu Yeming looked at her. There was a smile on his face that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Elder Sis, what’s mine is yours. So what if I want to take care of you?”
“That won’t do,” Tang Mo’er said as she batted her lashes. “Elder Sis really has money. Dad left so much money to me. And went I… divorced… Mr Gu, he gave me a lot of money as well. I still have my shares for the company as well. Plus I was in the entertainment industry for such a long time. I’ve really earned quite a sum.
“Yeming, listen to Elder Sis. Keep your own money well. You’re about to get married, so you have to take care of your wife. Forget about taking care of me. I have someone to do that, okay?”
Looking at her determined eyes, Lu Yeming replied softly, “Alright.”
So Tang Mo’er took out her card to settle the bill.
Lu Yeming took a look at this and turned away, walking to the full-length windows. He put both hands in his pocket and leaned lazily against the window. Then he lifted his hands and snapped the card in two before throwing the pieces into the rubbish bin.
Fan Men who was guarding the door took one look at this before lowering his head quickly. The West Palace had their own bank. The Master only needed to sign his own name and a personal butler would transfer the money over.
Of course, when Master visited another country, he would usually bring the gold-gilded black card with him for convenience. The card was tied to his name and would be able to mobilize all his a.s.sets.
Fan Men understood that Master’s intention was to give this card to his sister.
But Tang Mo’er had no lack of money. She had been in the entertainment industry for many years and had a lot of money saved up. With the jewelry company under her name, King-Back was also still earning her money everyday.
Her father Lu Jinwen had separated his a.s.sets in his will as well, bequeathing her with all his real estate. Her… ex-husband Mr Gu had also left her share from his company C.T. In other words, Mr Gu was effectively working for her.
So Tang Mo’er didn’t need Master’s money
All these years, Tang Mo’er had always been a great sister. She had given her brother plenty of love, freedom and respect and never crossed the line.
As Tang Mo’er and Master were both children of Lu Jinwen and Lin Xuanji, they had the same blood flowing through their veins, the same intelligence in their minds. Even though Tang Mo’er didn’t have the kind of overflowing coolness and charisma her brother did, the pa.s.sage of time had made her even more gentle and beautiful. Every action she made exuded feminine charm.
“Yeming, I’ve paid.” At this moment, Tang Mo’er came over with an exquisite bag.
Lu Yeming stood up straight and took his hand out from his pocket to take her bag. “Give it to me.”
“It’s fine. Yeming, go with your fiancée to look at some wedding dresses. I’ll head back first.”
Lu Yeming looked at her soft face. His gaze was gentle. “I’ll take you back.”
“I have a chauffeur. I’ll just head back first, okay? Don’t worry about me, Yeming. Bye bye.” Tang Mo’er waved goodbye to him with smiling eyes and turned to leave.
Lu Yeming stood rooted to the ground as her delicate figure vanished from his sight. He retracted his gaze lightly.
At this moment he felt another gaze on himself.
Lu Yeming turned silently and lifted his eyes to look. Jun Xiqing stood at an obscure corner. Her bright eyes were fixated on his handsome face.
Ever since she had seen him enter the store, she had avoided confrontation and made herself scarce in this dark corner. He didn’t know how long she had been staring at him. Her eyes were bright and full of intelligence as she scrutinised him with evident curiosity.
