Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 501: Chapter 497: The Tangled Duo

”Scram, as if I’m jealous, you think everyone’s as sleazy as you?”

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing glared at him annoyed and stared at Lu Tianxing, ”Lu Tianxing, stop changing the subject. A hero saving a beauty, tsk tsk, such a beautiful and romantic thing. Don’t tell me when you save a beauty, the beauty won’t be moved and offer herself to you.”

”Does saving a beauty mean that she should offer herself to him? Wife, what kind of logic is that?”

Lu Tianxing rolled his eyes, ”Besides, I’ve saved my wife so many times now, it can be considered hero saving the beauty, right? I haven’t seen you throwing yourself into my arms or offering yourself to me.”

”What nonsense are you talking about.”

Bai Zhiqing’s pretty face flushed red, and she slapped Lu Tianxing’s chest discontentedly. Then, suddenly raising her head to look at Tianxing, she said with some fear of gain and loss, ”Lu Tianxing, if one day, I end up in danger like Lin Yafei, would you save me? If it involves risking your life, would you still save me?”

After asking this question, Bai Zhiqing felt her heart leap to her throat, beating wildly, and she looked at Lu Tianxing with a face full of nervous tension. At this moment, she felt extremely anxious, clasping her hands together tightly, fearing she might hear an answer she didn’t want to hear.

Feeling Bai Zhiqing’s nervous expression, Lu Tianxing showed a faint smile, stretched out his hand to gently arrange Bai Zhiqing’s somewhat messy hair, and said, ”I am willing because she is my wife.”

His voice was calm, but filled with determination.

Lu Tianxing’s words sounded like thunder in Bai Zhiqing’s ears, causing her body to tremble. Her hands involuntarily embraced Tianxing’s waist, and she rested her head against his chest, listening to his strong, steady heartbeat. A happy smile curled at the corners of her mouth.

At this moment, Bai Zhiqing felt like a girl who had fallen in love, overjoyed and blissful because of a single sentence from her boyfriend, ready to give up the entire world.

Seeing the smile at the corner of Bai Zhiqing’s mouth, Lu Tianxing instinctively tightened his embrace around her, sighing softly in his heart.

Sometimes women can be so easily deceived. They don’t care if the words spoken by a man are true or false, they only care if the man cares about them. Even if what is said is false, they choose to believe it, and will repeatedly make excuses for the man in their heart.

”Lu Tianxing, will you truly never leave me in this lifetime?” Bai Zhiqing suddenly raised her head and said with some fear of gain and loss.

As time went by, Bai Zhiqing realized how foolish her previous thoughts were. Lu Tianxing was like a carp in the river, initially appearing ordinary, a common dish on the dining table. But once he crossed the Dragon Gate, he would transform into a true dragon.

Lu Tianxing gave Bai Zhiqing this kind of feeling. Like a carp in the river, commonplace at first, but as time passed, Lu Tianxing had crossed the Dragon Gate, turned into a true dragon, and shone with his own light.

But she felt like a phoenix that had fallen to the ground, inferior to even a chicken, only able to look up at the true dragon in the sky, high and unattainable, beyond her reach.

Bai Zhiqing didn’t want to admit whether she had truly fallen for Lu Tianxing, but she knew that if he left her, she might regret it for a lifetime.

”I won’t.”

Gently stroking Bai Zhiqing’s pretty face, Lu Tianxing said dominantly, ”Because you, Bai Zhiqing, belong only to me, Lu Tianxing. You’ve already been tagged with my label, nobody can take you away. If anyone dares to snatch you from my side, I’ll beat them to death. If you think about leaving yourself, I’ll just tie you to me.”

”Pah, you’re shameless. If you dare to treat me badly, I’ll kick you to the curb. Three-legged toads are hard to find, but men with two legs are a dime a dozen.”

Bai Zhiqing slapped Lu Tianxing’s chest disapprovingly, but the smile on her face became even more brilliant, content with just one answer.

”Alright, it’s getting late. I’m going back to sleep.”

With that, Bai Zhiqing wriggled out of Lu Tianxing’s embrace and turned to walk upstairs to the bedroom. Just as she reached the staircase, she stopped, her beautiful eyes looking complexly at Lu Tianxing, ”Lu Tianxing, you and Lin Yafei actually knew each other a long time ago, didn’t you? It wasn’t like you said, that you only met twice, was it?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing’s body shuddered, and he looked up at Bai Zhiqing in surprise.

”Wife, I....”

Lu Tianxing opened his mouth wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Zhiqing, ”Lu Tianxing, I don’t want to hear any explanations from you, nor do I want to say anything. I just hope you remember what you said, that you will never leave me in this lifetime, to hold my hand, to grow old with me.”

Watching Bai Zhiqing turn and go upstairs, Lu Tianxing only felt cold sweat drenching his back, utterly frightened by her words.

Lu Tianxing had never expected that Bai Zhiqing would say such a thing in the end, assuming that he had known Lin Yafei for a long time.

Sitting on the couch with a thud, Lu Tianxing gave a bitter smile and thought that perhaps Bai Zhiqing had long noticed, simply choosing to play dumb.

Indeed, Lu Tianxing wasn’t wrong; Bai Zhiqing had indeed noticed the affair between him and Lin Yafei a long time ago.

After all, she and Lin Yafei were best friends, living in the same apartment, and she knew Lin Yafei very well. Although Lin Yafei seemed flirtatious and seductive in her every move, in reality, no man had ever taken advantage of her, nor had she been involved in any scandals with men.

But at the banquet after the Tianhe Resort project had ended, Lin Yafei was out of character, favoring Lu Tianxing and even going so far as to proactively serve him food.

This kind of behavior, with other women, might be due to Lu Tianxing having become a favored figure at Bai’s Group, but with Lin Yafei, this reason simply didn’t hold water. After all, in terms of scale and strength, the Lin Group was not inferior to Bai’s Group, and there was no need for Lin Yafei to do such a thing. Moreover, Lu Tianxing’s performance was not outstanding, nothing about him was particularly impressive, and his flippant attitude made him no different from a lecher. It would be almost impossible for any woman to approach Lu Tianxing.

Therefore, there could only be one explanation—Lin Yafei and Lu Tianxing were very familiar with each other, very familiar indeed, and Lin Yafei possibly liked Lu Tianxing, otherwise, she would not have done these things.

Especially today, when Lin Yafei was in danger, why didn’t Li Xiaofeng seek help from others, or even the Lin Family? Instead, he called Lu Tianxing. This point alone explained everything.

However, Bai Zhiqing chose to play dumb. Her grandmother once taught her that men are like rubber bands—the tighter you pull, the more violently they snap back. Sometimes, it’s better to relax a little, which may lead a man to give his heart to you.

Constantly pressing will only slowly push the man who loves you towards someone else’s embrace, which is something she didn’t want to see.

Of course, relaxing didn’t mean completely letting go. Bai Zhiqing’s last words were a wake-up call to Lu Tianxing, warning him not to mess around.

Lu Tianxing took a deep drag of his cigarette, a wry smile appearing on his face. He realized you should never take any woman for a fool, or else you become the fool. Although Bai Zhiqing may be a love idiot, not understanding love, ignorance is not stupidity. Some things are obvious at a glance, especially to a sharp, urban businesswoman like Bai Zhiqing.

In fact, Bai Zhiqing wasn’t sure about the exact nature of the relationship between Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei. Even though Lin Yafei had once called her, bragging that she had found her man of the future and had rolled around in bed with him, at the time, Bai Zhiqing didn’t believe Lin Yafei’s words. She had heard such claims too many times already to take them seriously.

But today, after the incident with Lin Yafei, Li Xiaofeng chose not to seek help from the Lin Family but instead called Lu Tianxing. This demonstrated the issue, linking all the dots, leading Bai Zhiqing to speculate that Lu Tianxing had known Lin Yafei for a long time and that their relationship was not ordinary.

Bai Zhiqing tossed and turned on her bed, unable to sleep no matter what. It was impossible not to care about what Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei were up to. Although she couldn’t be sure if she had fallen in love with Lu Tianxing, she knew very well that if anything happened to him, she would be anxious, unsettled, and unable to remain calm.

”What to do if Lu Tianxing really has something going on with that Lin Demon?” Bai Zhiqing murmured to herself, suddenly overwhelmed by a strong sense of crisis.

This guy, Lu Tianxing, was just too attractive to women. Huangfu Meigui, Lin Yafei, Lin Qianru, and an Angel hidden abroad whom she’d never met—so many women, none of whom were inferior to her, some even superior. With so many women vying for one man’s attention, was she any match for them?

”Forget it, if he dares to cheat, I’ll confiscate his ’tools of the crime’,” thought Bai Zhiqing fiercely, her gaze blankly fixed on the ceiling as she zoned out.

In the living room, Lu Tianxing sat on the sofa, quietly smoking, his mind in turmoil. He didn’t know when, but the contractual marriage between him and Bai Zhiqing had slowly changed. It was as if by mutual unspoken agreement, neither had ever mentioned this contract again, as if it had never existed.

”Women, they always come with troubles,” Lu Tianxing sighed heavily, feeling a headache coming on. If Bai Zhiqing knew he had other women outside, how was he going to explain himself?

”Forget about it, there’s always a solution when you get to it, and things always work themselves out in the end,” Lu Tianxing thought as he took a hard drag of his cigarette, turning and heading upstairs carelessly. They’re just a few women, not man-eating beasts. If they made him angry, he’d just subdue them with force. Who was afraid of whom?
