Chapter 344: Chapter 134: Extreme Tug-of-War
Upon hearing this, Lu Rugaoâs face turned ashen, "You dare?"
Chen Xiao sneered, "You can try."
"Hehâ" Lu Rugao sneered once, "Three-legged frogs are hard to find, but arenât two-legged men everywhere? Who do you think you are?"
Zhang Yaqing pursed her lips and smiled, "Youâve already seen three-legged men, yet you still have eyes for two-legged ones? You must be starved, Lu Rugao!"
"This is called consumption downgrade." Luo Qingli followed up nonchalantly with a jab.
Lu Rugao gritted her teeth in anger, "I, Miss Lu, refuse to engage in verbal sparring with you!"
She decided to run away right now!
Going back to the Capital City immediately!
This wretched place, she didnât want to stay a minute longer.
Once Lu Rugao makes up her mind, she swiftly packed up everything in the villa, in a whirlwind, eager to leave right away.
Chen Xiao just calmly watched her performance.
"Goodbye, Miss Lu is going to soar away from this hellhole!" Before leaving, Lu Rugao provocatively glanced at everyone, arrogantly walked out of the front door.
But the moment she stepped out, the joy on her face disappeared without a trace, turning somewhat dim.
That wretch didnât even bother to see me off?
At this moment, a lazy voice came from behind, "Want me to accompany you?"
"No!" Lu Rugao snorted softly.
"Oh." Chen Xiao waved his hand, "Take care, I wonât see you off."
Lu Rugao gritted her teeth. He really doesnât care to see me off!
Absolute beast!!!
She took a step forward.
Just then, Robin drove a car over, deliberately shouting, "Lord Chen, please do see Miss Lu off!"
Chen Xiao gave Robin an approving look, this guy really knows how to handle things!
He wore a troubled expression, "Fine, since you said so, Iâll reluctantly oblige myself."
He hesitantly got into the car.
Then reluctantly invited Lu Rugao into the car.
Lu Rugao hesitantly sat in the passenger seat.
Her face was proud, muttering that if not for the difficulty in finding a taxi, sheâd never let Chen Xiao see her off.
In the car, the atmosphere was very silent, neither of them spoke along the way.
Suddenly.
Lu Rugao put down the partition between them.
Chen Xiaoâs eyelid twitched, "What are you doing?"
"Repaying debts!" Lu Rugao gritted her teeth with a cold smile, "The less I owe, the better for me. Remember, after today, the time I owe isnât half a month, itâs two weeks! Stop the car!"
Chen Xiao had no choice but to stop.
Lu Rugao reclined the seat, pulling him into the back seat, her entire delicate body pressed against him.
Chen Xiao chuckled teasingly, "Want a last feeling before you leave?"
"Afraid you canât handle it." Lu Rugao sneered as well, full of provocation.
ââ
Two or three hours later.
Outside the airport.
Lu Rugao was radiant as she stepped out of the car.
Just now, she had been pretending to rest in the car, now she still felt her legs were numb.
She glanced down, furrowed her brow slightly, noticing her high heels seemed a bit loose.
Of course, it wasnât about the quality of her shoes, even the best quality heels wouldnât withstand such high frequency tapping against the car roof without getting damaged.
"Remember, now, only fourteen days left." She regained her aloof demeanor, "Opportunity decreases with use, youâd better make time to come to the Capital City, let me break free quickly."
"Todayâs affair was out of pity, giving you a little benefit was intentional."
"Donât have any extra thoughts!"
With that, she headed inside dragging her suitcase.
Chen Xiao spoke lightly, "When youâre back in the Capital City, if anything happens, you can come to me."
These words suddenly halted Lu Rugao.
She turned back, sneered, "Are you sure?"
"A woman of mine, even if bullied, can only be bullied by me! No one else has the right!" Chen Xiaoâs voice was firm, carrying a sense of dominance.
"Whoâs your woman?" Lu Rugao countered coldly, "Stop being self-indulgent, though when I need you as a tool, I wonât hesitate!"
With that, she strode forward leaving.
But suddenly, Chen Xiao abruptly grabbed her, pulling her fiercely back!
"What are you..." Lu Rugao didnât finish her sentence, then saw two shining knives flashing past her eyes, had Chen Xiao not pulled her back just now, those knives would have stabbed right into her belly!
Thinking of this, she shivered all over.
The two Knife Men, seeing one strike failed, quickly rushed back, heading straight for Lu Rugao.
Lu Rugaoâs delicate face turned pale.
Chen Xiao decisively struck back, punching one Knife Man in the gut, knocking him over with eyes rolling and foaming, his dagger clattered as it fell to the ground.
The other Knife Manâs dagger slashed across Chen Xiaoâs arm, his clothes were torn and a streak of blood appeared... but just sliced the skin.
He held Lu Rugao in his arms, elegantly spun, and chopped the other Knife Man on the neck!
This Knife Man also fell straight down, unconscious.
Looking at the several centimeters long wound on his hand, Chen Xiao discreetly furrowed his brow, though he seemed to be in pain, he remained silent, lightly saying to Lu Rugao, "Itâs okay now, let me escort you onto the plane."
Lu Rugao looked at him worriedly, "Is your hand okay?"
Seeing the cut on Chen Xiaoâs arm, she hurriedly took out a bandage.
Chen Xiao waved a big hand, nonchalantly muttered, "No worries, just a scratch! Choose several flights to mislead, then take the high-speed rail. By the way, after youâre back in the Capital City, can those coming to pick you up ensure your safety?"
Lu Rugao said, "My grandfather sent trustworthy people, though my Lu Rugao has fallen, my grandfather still controls some real power in the Lu Family!"
Chen Xiao took her directly to the high-speed rail station.
Before departure.
He covertly exposed the wound on his hand, showing an expression of "Iâm not in any pain at all."
Lu Rugao tenderly looked at the cut on Chen Xiaoâs hand made by the knife, finally, bit her lip, stood on tiptoe, and gave him a peck on the cheek...
"During the Hundred Countries Military Battle, when youâre in the Capital City, itâs best you seek me out first, or Iâll consider that debt to clear automatically. After all, pay your debts off quickly, then Miss Lu can find another man, donât delay Miss Luâs chance to find a good match!"
After saying this, she turned without looking back and entered the station.
Chen Xiao triumphantly raised an eyebrow, smacked his lips, his ploy of playing the wounded worked quite well, it actually made this proud woman voluntarily kiss him.
This was the first time Lu Rugao kissed him voluntarily.
His arm trembled slightly, muscles twitched, and the tiny wound cut by the dagger slowly began to heal...
Soon, only a thin white line remained.
As Lu Rugao turned away, she couldnât help but mutter softly, "Wretched, if those Knife Men could hurt you, the sun would rise in the west, as if Miss Lu couldnât see through your little schemes?"
Though she complained like this, a graceful curve slowly formed at the corner of her mouth.
Chen Xiao thinks sheâs dumb, sheâll pretend to be dumb then, but she refuses to admit she already saw through Chen Xiaoâs little tricks.
This guy plays the pity card, she seized the chance to play dumb as if unaware he was feigning minor injury, showing a tender expression, as he craved some sign she played as if unaware, giving him a kiss.
An expert hunter often appears as prey...
She was pleased in her heart, this wretched, after all, fell under Lu Rugaoâs spell! What nonsense about a flirt among flowers, wasnât he still folded by the beautyâs pass?
