Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 128: Chapter 127: Conversation with the Old Man

Half an hour later, Lu Tianxing’s car slowly drove into the Ziyuan District and steadily parked inside the villa’s garage.

”Weiwei, wake up, we’re home.” Lu Tianxing nudged Bai Weiwei, who was sleeping next to him.

”Don’t touch me, I want to sleep...” Bai Weiwei mumbled unclearly, moved her body, and continued to sleep deeply.

Lu Tianxing gave a wry smile, looking at the drowsily sleeping Bai Weiwei. With a grit of his teeth, he lifted her and walked towards the room.

At that moment, as Lu Tianxing carried Bai Weiwei, smelling the faint, subtle fragrance emanating from her, his heart felt uneasy. Taking his sister-in-law out for fun wasn’t a big deal, but the key issue was that his sister-in-law was drunk, and he was carrying her back. This scene, if seen by Bai Zhiqing or Old Master Bai, could lead to a big misunderstanding.

Lu Tianxing suddenly realized that this sister-in-law was not only a little devil but also a big troublemaker. He secretly prayed that Old Master Bai and the others had already gone to sleep.

With one hand holding Bai Weiwei and the other pulling out the key from his pocket to unlock the door, Lu Tianxing had just walked into the living room when his expression changed, and he froze on the spot, a desire to die bubbling up from within—it really was a case of fearing what might come to pass.

Aren’t the elderly supposed to sleep early? Who said that? It’s already eleven o’clock, why hadn’t Old Master Bai gone to sleep, still leisurely watching TV and smoking in the living room?

Lu Tianxing felt an urge to go mad, wishing he could capture the person who said that and give them a thorough beating.

”Grandpa, it’s so late, and you haven’t slept yet!”

Lu Tianxing laughed awkwardly, supporting Bai Weiwei to prevent her from falling on the ground, while watching Bai Qiao Mountain’s expression. If Bai Qiao Mountain showed any signs of fury, he would immediately run for it, making his escape.

”Weiwei is drunk?”

Bai Qiao Mountain shifted his gaze from the TV to Lu Tianxing.

”Yes! I told her not to drink, but she insisted on drinking, so she got drunk.”

Lu Tianxing quickly nodded, his face showing an innocent expression.

”You go and take her to her room first, then come down. I have some things I want to talk to you about,” Bai Qiao Mountain said softly, his expression unchanged.

”Grandpa, I’ll go upstairs first.”

Lu Tianxing’s face showed a hint of relief, thankful that Old Master Bai was reasonable. If Bai Zhiqing had seen this, she probably wouldn’t have asked for any explanation and would have fought him on the spot.

Lu Tianxing had just carried Bai Weiwei upstairs when he ran into He Cailan, who was about to go down. At He Cailan’s request, he handed Bai Weiwei over to her and then went downstairs again.

”Grandpa, did you have something to say to me? It’s so late, if there’s nothing urgent, we could talk tomorrow. Staying up is not good for your health,” Lu Tianxing said, sitting on the sofa, puzzled.

Bai Qiao Mountain didn’t speak at first, just looked deeply at Lu Tianxing for a while before slowly starting to speak, ”Military Blade, tell me honestly, do you feel aggrieved because I forced you to marry Zhiqing?”

”Uh!”

Hearing the old master’s words, Lu Tianxing was slightly stunned, wondering why the old master would say such a thing.

Aggrieved!

Of course, he felt aggrieved. He had a wife in the legal sense, yet he was not allowed to touch her, and they lived separately. Who wouldn’t feel aggrieved in such a situation?

Of course, these thoughts Lu Tianxing could only ponder in his heart, not daring to express them in front of the old master, fearing that the old man’s sudden fury might erupt upon hearing them.

He had truly witnessed the old master’s explosive temper.

Lu Tianxing chuckled dryly and jokingly said, ”Grandpa, you must be joking. How could I feel aggrieved? Zhiqing is so beautiful and the chairman of a large corporation; she has money, houses, everything. I’m just a lowly guy without savings, a house, or a car, a typical man with nothing. To marry such a gorgeous beauty like Zhiqing, it’s like my ancestors have blessed me; I’m secretly thrilled. How could I possibly feel aggrieved? Grandpa, you’re overthinking it.”

”Don’t give me that banter.”

Bai Qiao Mountain glared at Lu Tianxing displeasedly and said, ”If you’re a nobody, then what does that make the rest of the world? You think I don’t know who you are? Military Blade, once the foremost expert of the military, thrice crowned champion of the global special forces combat competition, your exploits are well-known. Although I don’t know why you eventually chose to leave the military, or where you went after, but I fought in Vietnam, crawling out from a pile of dead bodies, so my instincts are sharp. The feeling you give me now is dangerous, as if a bloodthirsty beast in deep slumber, once awake, will surely tear all enemies to shreds, unstoppable.”

As he spoke, Bai Qiao Mountain looked somewhat horrified at Lu Tianxing and continued, ”As for the Bai’s Group that Zhiqing built, haha, to speak unpleasantly, if you wish, destroying Bai’s Group wouldn’t take much time. Moreover, what does it matter if a woman is beautiful? In the end, she’ll still end up as someone else’s wife. Does she really intend to be like Wu Zetian and become an Empress? Rather than her benefiting someone else, better she benefit you. Luckily, you’re smart and didn’t say you were so aggrieved you wanted a divorce. If you dared say that, even if it costs me my old life, I’d break your legs. Thinking you can have your fill and then deny responsibility? No way in hell.”

”Uh!”

Lu Tianxing broke into cold sweat upon hearing the old master’s words, the old master’s fierce nature refreshing his perception once again. What did he mean by ’rather than her benefiting someone else, it’s better she benefit you’, making it sound like he had stumbled upon a treasure.

”Grandpa, you’re joking again. How could I possibly divorce Zhiqing? Having such a beautiful wife, now I even wake up laughing from my dreams, I’ve hit the jackpot.”

Lu Tianxing chuckled dryly; indeed, he had considered this before, planning to take his compensation and disappear once Bai Zhiqing ended their marriage agreement. However, a series of recent events had made him realize that this seemingly icy wife was not as cold as he had imagined.

She also had the joys, sorrows, and passions of an ordinary woman, her own loves and hates. It’s just that these emotions were all wrapped up in a layer of ice. Such a woman, if she does not love, once she does love someone, it would be earth-shattering, intensely passionate.

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Qiao Mountain sighed and slowly said, ”You don’t need to comfort me. Do you think I’ve gone senile, oblivious to everything? Although I do not know exactly how you and Zhiqing got married, I hope you can be more understanding. Zhiqing used to be a lively girl, no different from other little girls, liking various snacks, dolls, and toys. But since that incident, Zhiqing has changed, become icy, learned to arm herself with coldness, typically unapproachable to strangers....”
