Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 1570: Chapter 1563: A Bet

Hearing Rose’s blunt words, Xue Bing’s pretty face immediately turned ugly, staring at Rose with a livid expression. That woman clearly had nothing going for her, no man would like her.

Taking a deep breath, Xue Bing suppressed the anger in her heart, looked at Rose with a sneer, and said, “Hmph, Huangfu Meigui, you’re just trying to make me give up. Let me tell you, you’re delusional. I, Xue Bing, have never known how to write the word ‘give up’ in my entire life.”

Rose wanted her to give up, so she was determined not to.

“Is that so?”

Rose picked up her glass again, downed the red wine in one go, and looked at Xue Bing with a smile, saying, “Officer Xue, it seems you’re quite confident. How about we make a bet?”

“A bet?” Xue Bing was slightly taken aback.

“What’s the matter, Officer Xue? Are you afraid? If you are, just give up! You won’t be able to seduce my man,” Rose said with a smiling face, looking at Xue Bing.

Seeing Rose’s smile and hearing her provocative words, Xue Bing was instantly annoyed. She sneered and said, “Fine, let’s bet. I’m not afraid. What do you have in mind?”

“This bet is simple. When you become Lu Tianxing’s woman, we can both try to seduce him at leisure and see who he chooses to be with first, and whoever he picks wins. Of course, the bet is only valid if you manage to win over my man first. Do you dare to bet?”

“This… .”

Xue Bing instinctively wanted to refuse Rose’s proposal. She was not like Rose, exuding a seductive aura from head to toe. To seduce Lu Tianxing might be doable, but to do it alongside another woman and see who he chooses, she couldn’t bring herself to do it.

“What, don’t you dare?”

Rose cast a provocative glance at Xue Bing: “If you don’t dare, forget it, I’ll pretend I didn’t say anything.”

“Not afraid!”

Xue Bing, sulking at Rose’s provocative gaze, said through gritted teeth, “Whoever chickens out is a wimp. I was just thinking that a bet without stakes won’t do.”

“What stakes do you want?”

“Whoever loses will wash the other’s clothes for life, inside and out, and isn’t allowed to use a washing machine; it must be hand-washed. Do you dare?” Xue Bing lifted her head and looked at Rose with disdain.

“Fine, I agree to your terms,”

Rose nodded without any hesitation, looking at Xue Bing with a smile, and said, “Looks like I’ll have to change more outfits every day from now on. Can’t let free labor go to waste.”

“Hmph, same to you.”

Hearing Rose’s muttering, Xue Bing snorted coldly, secretly vowing to show Rose who’s boss.

Meanwhile, Lu Tianxing stood outside the western restaurant with a wry smile, took a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to the young man next to him, lit one for himself, and after a puff said, “Brother, I’m sorry about earlier. You know, sometimes men can’t help it, my apologies.”

“It’s nothing, man. I get it. If there’s nothing else, I’ll head off.”

The young man didn’t care much, took the cigarette Lu Tianxing offered, gave him an understanding smile, and without a word, turned and walked to the restaurant’s parking lot.

Watching the young man’s final glance, Lu Tianxing wore a helpless expression, feeling like he had met a fellow sufferer.

After another puff of smoke, Lu Tianxing’s gaze swept over the restaurant, contemplating whether to sneak away while he had the chance. After all, as the saying goes, when two tigers fight, one will surely get hurt. If the two women start fighting, it’s the man who’ll be in trouble.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Tianxing finally shook his head, giving up on the idea of sneaking away. If he dared to slip away, Xue Bing and Rose might very well storm Bai’s Group directly.

It wasn’t until he finished the cigarette that Lu Tianxing leisurely walked toward the restaurant.

At this moment, the two women were no longer arguing but were in a stare-down.

Seeing this, Lu Tianxing secretly sighed in relief. Luckily, the two ladies hadn’t started fighting; otherwise, he’d be in trouble trying to help either of them.

Quickening his pace, Lu Tianxing walked to the table and plopped himself down.

Seeing Lu Tianxing sit down, Rose smiled coquettishly and said, “Little man, you’re finally back. I was beginning to think you had sneaked off behind our backs! I was just about to pay Bai’s Group a visit! By the way, do you have time after dinner? How about coming over to my place? I recently learned a few dances, and I’ll show you. I also know the kind of dances you like.”

Hearing Rose’s words, Lu Tianxing shrugged helplessly but chose not to respond, wisely deciding to stay silent.

Lu Tianxing could feel that although Xue Bing and Rose had stopped bickering, the tension between them seemed to be intensifying. Especially when Rose invited him, Lu Tianxing could almost feel the fire in Xue Bing’s eyes burning. Lu Tianxing believed that if he agreed to Rose’s invitation, Xue Bing might call Bai Zhiqing to tattle.

“Vixen.”

Xue Bing muttered inwardly, her beautiful eyes circling around Lu Tianxing, relaxing only when she saw that he remained unmoved. She was genuinely worried she might lose the bet and be forced to wash Rose’s clothes for a lifetime, something she would never allow to happen.

Seeing Lu Tianxing’s lack of reaction, Rose didn’t mind. With a smile filled with allure, she changed the subject, saying, “Lu Tianxing, I heard you’re planning to go to Beijing in a few days?”

Lu Tianxing nodded directly and said, “Yeah, I should be heading to Beijing in the next couple of days. Why? Are you going to try and persuade me not to go?”

“Why would I stop you? You’re my man. Do whatever you want! I just hope you’ll remember no matter how dangerous things get outside, there’s a woman at home waiting for you to return safely.” Rose said softly.

Hearing Rose’s words, warmth filled Lu Tianxing’s heart, and he smiled, saying, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Don’t fret too much.”

As Lu Tianxing finished speaking, Rose cast a provocative glance at Xue Bing, as if to say, “See? You’re no match for me.”

Xue Bing opened her mouth but did not refute.

She had to admit, Rose indeed understood men better than she did. She understood Lu Tianxing’s character better too. Once he decided on something, he wouldn’t change his mind easily and would see it through, so Rose didn’t try to persuade him but spoke in line with Lu Tianxing’s thinking, saying warm and tender words.

There’s no man who doesn’t love a woman like this; understanding and considerate women are the ones most cherished by men.

“Do you have any plans for when you go to Beijing?”

Taking her eyes off Xue Bing, Rose took a deep breath and said seriously, “From what I know, the Holy Daughter from the Church is obviously coming for you. Also, the Church’s influence is strong in the West. This time, the Holy Daughter comes to China to find you; they definitely won’t let you off. But if you kill Avril, I’m afraid…”

Worry slowly surfaced on Rose’s face. Although the Church has little foundation in China, the Holy Daughter came to China under the guise of repairing relations with Huaxia Martial Artists and the Church. Official powers can’t really deal with Avril, and even Sima Lingyun’s Yanhuang Group couldn’t do anything to Avril. Otherwise, Sima Lingyun would have acted directly instead of just warning her.

Because Sima Lingyun knew too well that if anything happened to Avril, the resulting complications were immense. It could even trigger a massive East-West conflict, and if someone fans the flames, Lu Tianxing will surely become the target for all Huaxia Martial Artists, a thorn in their side.

Facing the united force of all Huaxia Martial Artists, even Lu Family wouldn’t be able to shield him. The best outcome might be sacrificing Lu Tianxing to the Church to quench their wrath, for no one wants to accidentally start a war with the Church.
