Chapter 889: Chapter 883: You Still Owe Me an Explanation

Seeing Shen Manjun turn around and leave, Bai Zhiqing gave Lu Tianxing an annoyed look. She almost didn’t need to guess to know that before she came, Shen Manjun had absolutely been put in a difficult position by Lu Tianxing. No doubt about it.

Since she’d been spending time with Lu Tianxing lately, she found that Lu Tianxing didn’t have any major flaws, except for his wicked tongue. Often, he could choke you to death with his words. Just looking at the way Shen Manjun acted, it was clear she’d faced some difficulties earlier.

Feeling Bai Zhiqing’s gaze, Lu Tianxing chuckled awkwardly and said, ”Wife, why are you looking at me like that? I swear I have nothing to do with Shen Manjun. I didn’t say anything, didn’t do anything. I’m innocent.”

”You didn’t say or do anything, but that doesn’t mean she wouldn’t do something.”

Lin Yafei chimed in from the side, ”Old friend, I’m starting to look down on you more and more. I didn’t expect you could even hook up with Shen Manjun. Tsk tsk, Shen Manjun, the famous charming widow of Beijing. Old friend, your skills are impressive. You wouldn’t by any chance have known her long ago, right? That’s probably why she’s been indifferent to other men all these years but is so fond of you. She even stood by you last night. I admire you greatly. If I were a man, I’d definitely call you my master.”

Hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Lu Tianxing’s face turned dark as he said, ”Slander! Lin Demon, you’re plain slandering me. Didn’t you hear her say she stayed last night for the sake of collaborating with Angel Group? And besides, didn’t you notice she looks like she could eat me alive whenever she sees me? Is that the look lovers give each other?”

”Really? So what?”

Lin Yafei shrugged and said, ”As they say, hitting is kissing, scolding is loving. Didn’t you and Little Qingqing also dislike each other at first? Don’t you two stick together like glue now? And who knows, maybe you betrayed her in the past, leading her to be so sarcastic towards you now. She might have even become Beijing’s charming widow because of your past wrongdoings.”

”Lin Demon, aren’t you afraid your mouth will rot from slandering people behind their backs?”

Lu Tianxing smiled bitterly, looking at Lin Yafei, ”I would love to have something going on with her. Seriously, any man would with such a beautiful woman. But didn’t you notice her daughter is already in high school? You don’t think I had the ability to father a child at eight or nine, do you?”

”Who knows! Maybe you were exceptionally talented.”

Lu Tianxing rolled his eyes at Lin Yafei’s words, too lazy to continue arguing. He realized no matter what he said, he couldn’t win against Lin Yafei, her ability to twist the truth was unbeatable. Exceptional talent? Try finding an eight or nine-year-old who can father children. Those things probably aren’t even functional at that age.

Seeing Lu Tianxing fall silent, Lin Yafei cautiously said, ”Old friend, what’s wrong? Are you mad? Did I hit a sore spot and now you’re angry out of embarrassment?”

”Scram!”

Lu Tianxing glared at Lin Yafei and said, ”By the way, where is Angel? Wasn’t she with you guys earlier? I haven’t seen her come back.”

”Angel left.”

At this moment, Mu Qingxue spoke up, ”Angel said she had something to deal with today, so she left early. Also, she asked us to tell you that she’s very sorry about last night. Ignoring the security measures led to you getting hurt, and she feels really bad about it. She hopes to treat you to a meal to express her apologies when she has time.”

Lu Tianxing nodded at Mu Qingxue’s words and didn’t ask further.

Right at this moment, Bai Zhiqing suddenly said, ”Lu Tianxing, you still owe me an explanation.”

”Explanation?”

Lu Tianxing was taken aback, looking at Bai Zhiqing in confusion.

Bai Zhiqing nodded and said, ”Yes, an explanation. What’s the deal with Angel? You seem quite familiar with her, which is completely unlike what you told me before.”

Thinking back to Angel’s attitude towards Lu Tianxing last night, and considering that after what happened last night she didn’t comfort the elite from the Chinese business circle or Beijing’s celebrities but came here to see Lu Tianxing instead, it clearly indicated an unusual relationship between the two. In Angel’s heart, comforting Lu Tianxing was more important than the Chinese business circle people.

Upon hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words and seeing her expression, Lu Tianxing’s heart sank. He knew very well that if he didn’t give a proper explanation today, Bai Zhiqing wouldn’t let it go. After all, anyone with a bit of sense would notice something fishy about Angel’s visit here today.

Thinking quickly, Lu Tianxing’s mind lit up with an idea, and he immediately said, ”Wife, actually, I have no special relationship with Angel. You know a bit about what I did abroad. At that time, Angel was just one of my employers. I protected her for a period of time, that’s all.”

”Really?”

Bai Zhiqing looked at Lu Tianxing skeptically, ”Are you sure that’s all? Nothing inappropriate happened during the protection? Why didn’t you tell me when I asked before? Why did you hide it from me?”

”What’s there to say about it? I protected a lot of people abroad, Angel isn’t the only one. If I were to talk about it, it would take ten days and nights.” Lu Tianxing pretended to be indifferent.

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, a smile appeared on Bai Zhiqing’s face. However, in Lu Tianxing’s eyes, that smile made him feel a sense of dread. It seemed like the same smile Bai Zhiqing used to have before tricking him.

”Wife, can you not smile like that? It’s giving me the creeps,” Lu Tianxing said timidly.

”Why can’t I smile like this?”

Bai Zhiqing smiled slightly, her gaze fixed on Lu Tianxing, and said slowly, ”Lu Tianxing, are you sure you’re telling the truth? You’ve only protected Angel abroad without any other relationship?”

”Of course.”

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Zhiqing seriously, ”I wouldn’t lie to you. You’re my wife, how could I lie to you?”

”Haven’t you lied to me often enough?”

”Uh!” At these words, Lu Tianxing was left speechless.

Just then, Lin Yafei couldn’t help but speak up, ”Little Qingqing, don’t worry about whether he and Angel have a relationship. Don’t you think this is a great opportunity? Angel is the CEO of Angel Group, and Lu Tianxing knows her. I think we should have Lu Tianxing get close to Angel, and then our collaboration with Angel Group will be a done deal.”
