Chapter 13: Chapter 13 You can share a room with me
"Jun, how could you do this? I'm your girlfriend now!" Qin Yao looked at Qi Jun with a hint of grievance, her heart twitching as she watched him getting kicked repeatedly by the security guards, each blow causing his facial muscles to flinch!
As several security guards pinned Qi Jun to the ground, he managed a pained expression and said, "It's okay, I don't mind. After all, back in university, you two were a couple, and he's always wanted to sleep with you, right? Let him have one night, it's not like it'll cost you any parts... Please save me, I'll buy you a Hermès tomorrow!"
To save his own life, Qi Jun was really going all out.
Losing face didn't matter; what was crucial was to get through this immediate crisis!
Now, with this mysterious woman backing Chen Tang, it seemed certain that even if he was beaten to death, it would be in vain.
Standing by, Qin Yao's eyes lit up when she heard Qi Jun mention the Hermès bag, "Jun... stop talking, it breaks my heart to see you getting beaten! For you, I'm willing to do anything..."
As her words ended, Qin Yao turned to Chen Tang and said, "Chen Tang, isn't it you who wants to sleep with me? Fine, I'll satisfy you. Just let Jun go, and we can go book a room right away. I'll let you do whatever you want tonight, I won't say another word!"
Did Qin Yao really feel sorry for Qi Jun?
What a joke!
Both Qin Yao and Qi Jun knew exactly why they were together. It was simply a matter of convenience for both of them.
The only reason Qin Yao agreed to help Qi Jun was for the sake of a Hermès bag worth over a hundred thousand.
Liu Qiang's two security guards, upon hearing that Qin Yao was Chen Tang's ex-girlfriend, were momentarily stunned. Liu Qiang was also at a loss, finding the relationships among these people to be quite complicated.
Since Qin Yao was Chen Tang's ex-girlfriend, if things were handled too harshly, it could be difficult to explain later. Liu Qiang turned his gaze to Chen Tang, waiting for his decision.
Chen Tang stood expressionless, inwardly shaking his head when he heard Qin Yao's offer, "Forget it, a lesson is enough! Anyway, I haven't lost anything, and President Han still wants to invite me to write couplets for him, right, President Han?" Chen Tang turned and winked at Han Youyue.
Han Youyue immediately understood and her expression darkened as she said to Liu Qiang, "Right! Chairman Liu, you handle these people. Let's go, Mr. Chen!"
Han Youyue reached out her hand to Chen Tang and led him out the door, walking together.
Wang Ke and Qi Jun were left lying on the ground, gasping for air.
Watching Chen Tang's retreating figure, Wang Ke and Qi Jun exchanged glances. This Chen Tang, at least he knows his place! Humph, just relying on others for power. Will he be so lucky next time?
After personally escorting Han Youyue and Chen Tang away, Liu Qiang returned to the hotel lobby and coldly glanced at Qi Jun, Wang Ke, and the others, "Get out! If you dare to bother Mr. Chen again, I'll break your legs!"
...
Han Youyue personally escorted Chen Tang to Lin Chuxue's residence and respectfully left after watching him enter the villa.
In the villa's living room, Lin Chuxue sat barefoot on the sofa watching TV. Seeing Chen Tang come in, she turned with a smile, "You're back?"
Lin Chuxue seemed to be in a good mood, now that the company's funding gap had been resolved. Dressed in a purple chiffon nightgown, her fair clavicle exposed, she exuded a sense of a woman's sexiness.
"Yeah! I went to prepare a gift for Grandma!" As he spoke, Chen Tang took out the pile of earrings given to him by Liu Tianxiong and handed them to Lin Chuxue.
Lin Chuxue looked at the earrings with skepticism, recognizing the shape as similar to a pair she had bought before, though the material was something she was less familiar with, "Where did you get these?"
"I met a friend, helped him out before, and he gave them to me. They should be worth a couple of hundred thousand, I guess!" Chen Tang vaguely brushed off the question, not intending to explain further.
Lin Chuxue let out a long sigh, "That's the only option now!"
Currently, the money that Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang had wasn't enough to buy a decent gift. And coincidentally, the pair that Chen Tang brought back looked quite similar to the one Lin Feng had broken before, so giving them as a present tomorrow wouldn't be too embarrassing.
"It's getting late, let's take a quick shower and go to bed!" Lin Chuxue stood up, her face showing a hint of shyness as she said to Chen, "I... I'll be waiting for you upstairs!"
Huh?
Upon hearing Lin Chuxue's words, Chen Tang was startled and turned to look at Lin Chuxue hesitantly!
Waiting for him upstairs?
What did that mean?
Staring under Chen Tang's intense gaze, Lin Chuxue felt even more bashful and said with a bit of coquettish anger, "You... don't get the wrong idea! I just meant we can sleep in the same room... You make do with the floor for now... I'll try to accept you... I'm sorry..."
The last "I'm sorry" from Lin Chuxue was truly an apologetic expression from the heart.
Chen Tang had been living in the Lin Family for so many years, and though they were married, Lin Chuxue had never shown him a pleasant face, nor had she ever treated him as family. She hadn't given him a single chance to get close, which was unfair to Chen Tang.
Today, at the KTV and at the mall, Chen Tang had protected her so desperately, even reaching out to his classmates to pull investments for the company... Lin Chuxue's heart was moved, so she decided to try and accept Chen Tang.
Letting Chen Tang go upstairs to share a room was the first step!
Watching Lin Chuxue's coy demeanor, Chen Tang's face broke into a smile, "Eh, wife, you really don't have to, I'll just sleep downstairs!"
Lin Chuxue gave Chen Tang a seductive glance and coquettishly snorted, "Hmph! Are you afraid I'll eat you up? I've already moved your stuff upstairs, so hurry up and take a shower!"
"..." Chen Tang was rendered speechless, this girl was decisive and quick to act, "Alright then!"
Take a shower, head upstairs, go to bed!
Although it was their first time sharing a room, which was somewhat awkward, the night passed without incident!
...
Early the next morning, they got ready and Lin Chuxue drove towards grandma's place.
Today was grandma's birthday, and being late would surely bring criticism from the elders!
By the time they arrived at grandma's place, Lin Feng, the second uncle, third uncle, and several other elders had already gathered.
Seeing Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang enter, Lin Feng immediately sneered, "Oh, isn't that President Lin? Grandma, I've heard from our Chief Executive Lin that he bought you a pair of earrings worth eight hundred thousand yesterday. Let's have them out for everyone to see, shall we?"
Lin Feng had personally seen the earrings shattered yesterday, and in Yun City, there was only one pair like that, so it was impossible for Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang to find an identical pair again.
In an effort to curry favor with grandma, Lin Feng had already been planting seeds of expectation in her ear, telling her about the gift that Lin Chuxue had prepared, all with the intent of making Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang look bad.
Lin Chuxue ignored Lin Feng and approached grandma, saying, "Grandma, happy birthday! I wish you a lifespan as enduring as the southern mountains and fortune as vast as the eastern seas!"
Sitting at the head seat, grandma snorted coldly through her nostrils, "Hm! Chuxue, Ah-Feng mentioned that you bought me a pair of jade earrings, let's have a look, shall we? Grandma just so happens to be missing a pair of earrings!"
