Chapter 1670: A New Beginning (10)

Qiao Yiyi’s pupils shrank back at once and, lowering her head, she quickly said, “No, no, it’s ok. I’m fine. I’m as healthy as an ox!”

Lu Nanze: …

She was comparing her frail figure with an ox?

Was that a deliberate insult to the ox?!

Lu Nanze replied with a frosty look, “It’s been decided. Now go back upstairs.”

She wanted to retort, but ended up staying silent, as though remembering something. She immediately turned around and went upstairs.

Before she could take another step, he called her again, “Hang on!”

Qiao Yiyi: …

She halted again, feeling thoroughly exasperated.

Hang on, hang on, my ass!

My time is precious, dude!

But not only could she not go upstairs, she now had to keep pretending to be nervous. She turned around to look at the man, waiting for this big businessman to give instructions.

Yet unexpectedly, he said, “Thank you for today.”

Qiao Yiyi: …

She widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief.

She recovered from her shock after a moment and nodded at once. Turning around again, she ran upstairs.

Even though she had been worried in the beginning about not being able to hold back her laughter and make him suspicious, she had had to run away now from shyness.

Looking at her back, the man sighed and walked away.

–

Qiao Yiyi went upstairs and entered her bedroom.

She was staying in a separate room from Lu Nanze.

She removed her coat, revealing the black bodysuit beneath.

She took off the bodysuit and folded it up till it was a tiny bundle the size of her thumb. Then she stuffed it into an unnoticeable corner.

Following this, she lay down on the bed and raised her hand.

In it was the bracelet she had stolen from Lu Nanze today.

At Qiao Lian’s wedding, he had asked her to give this bracelet to Qiao Lian. She had figured that this inexpensive bracelet must have been quite important to Lu Nanze.

When the man had shoved her aside today, she had been determined to take revenge, that was why she had stolen it.

But he… actually just thanked her?

Lu Nanze was a well-known leader in the underworld and always had to have the last word. Because he was so powerful, no one dared to offend him. Yet a person like him had thanked her?

Qiao Yiyi shuddered and tossed the bracelet aside. Then she tucked her hands under the back of her head and stared at the ceiling.

Shortly after, her cell phone rang.

She looked down and picked up the phone. She looked at the screen and frowned.

After a while, she took the call and said timidly, “Hello, Dad.”

“Yiyi, it’s your dad calling. Why did it take you so long to answer?”

“Dad, I didn’t hear the phone.”

“I’m calling because I heard that Mr. Lu is back. Do you think I should visit him tomorrow?”

The girl rolled her eyes.

Ever since their wedding, her father had been hoping to visit Lu Nanze. But the man had not been staying at home lately, so there hadn’t been a chance for them to meet. So now that he had heard Lu Nanze was back, was he trying to come and get welfare in person?

The girl replied at once, “Dad, I guess it would be fine, but Mr. Lu seems… to be in a bad mood. He met Best Actor Shen and his wife at the wedding, and he looked unhappy.”
