CHAPTER 21: CHAPTER 21: NO MATTER HOW TOUGH IT GETS, I WON’T ASK FOR YOUR HELP

Seeing Lu Xiao’s frivolous actions, Qin Youling’s faint budding fondness instantly evaporated.

This bastard, was he a pervert in a past life?

Can’t you act a bit more gentlemanly, can’t you first work on raising my favorability?

If I had a higher impression of you, maybe I would gradually start to like you, although it’s a long shot, but can’t you at least try?

If it succeeded, you could do whatever you wanted with me!

"You’re not planning to cheat again, are you?"

"If you keep this up, we really can’t cooperate anymore." Seeing Qin Youling’s displeased face, Lu Xiao also started feeling annoyed.

Then just don’t agree.

If you agree but don’t follow through, aren’t you just toying with me?

"I didn’t say I would cheat!"

"Can’t it wait a few days? Do you really need to rush this moment?"

"Can you give me some time to prepare and mentally brace myself?" Qin Youling also glared, what else can you do besides using non-cooperation to threaten me?

"No! Who knows if you’ll deny it after a few days."

"We should at least be honest."

"I want it now." Lu Xiao spoke resolutely.

Waiting a few days, isn’t that just messing with me? By then, I would have huffed and puffed to solve all the troubles for Qin Real Estate, and you could deny everything without evidence. Who would I go to?

"Do you really not trust me that much?"

"I don’t." Lu Xiao shook his head, you do have a history.

Previously, you even said to let me get my fill, and yet I didn’t see a single thing.

Qin Youling clenched her fists tightly from frustration caused by Lu Xiao.

"Fine fine fine, touch touch touch, happy now?"

"Touch now."

"Come on then!" Saying so, Qin Youling fiercely grabbed Lu Xiao’s wrist and pressed it against her body.

Lu Xiao’s eyes widened, his brain overheating, happiness came too suddenly.

Just as Lu Xiao was about to savor the moment, Qin Youling had already pulled back.

"What we agreed earlier, a quick touch, that should do, right?" Qin Youling arched an eyebrow, her tone slightly triumphant.

This move was all about catching him off guard.

If you let Lu Xiao do it himself, who knows what bad intentions he might hide.

Lu Xiao opened his mouth but couldn’t say a word.

Did I touch? It felt like I did... but maybe not.

"Got careless, huh." Lu Xiao sighed heavily, reluctantly retracting his arm.

Seeing Lu Xiao embarrassed, Qin Youling actually started to feel happy.

Even the shameful feeling she had just experienced began to dissipate.

"Alright then, let’s continue talking."

"My demands are not high, I help you take over Qin Real Estate and Qin Department Store, and you let me do it myself, hands-on for at least a minute." Lu Xiao’s lips curved slightly.

Playing tricks with me, what good can come out of it.

You can avoid the first, but not the fifteenth, I must catch this wave of happiness.

"Thanks, but no thanks, I’ll fight for it myself." Qin Youling cut him off, rejecting him decisively and neatly.

I agreed earlier because I had no choice, I had to ensure my and Grandpa’s safety first.

As for now, dream on.

Besides, you, Lu Xiao, are just a recently discharged soldier, without either money or connections, there’s no way you could take over Qin Real Estate and Qin Department Store.

Lu Xiao glanced indifferently at Qin Youling, the silly girl was overconfident again, planning to fight on her own, as if you have the skills, fighting over nothing.

Although your three uncles don’t have much skill, they at least have the experience.

Against them, you, little lamb, would be devoured in a minute.

"Alright, alright, do it yourself."

"Wishing you success!"

"Make sure to do your best!" Lu Xiao waved his arms earnestly to cheer for Qin Youling.

Qin Youling snorted, this jerk is being sarcastic again.

"Rest assured, I Qin Youling, no matter how hard or tough in the future, will never seek your help again."

Lu Xiao rolled his eyes, you sure are good at making promises.

"Alright, then we’ll wait for the great news from Eldest Miss Qin."

"When you control Qin Family, notify me to collect the money and get a divorce, see ya." Lu Xiao waved his hand and turned to leave.

Qin Youling was about to remind Lu Xiao not to leave the Qin Family Old Mansion, but remembering how this guy single-handedly took down more than twenty people, she swallowed her words.

With Lu Xiao’s fighting skills, Qin Kai probably couldn’t handle him.

Yet, for some reason, as she watched Lu Xiao’s figure get farther away, she suddenly felt a bit down.

...

After leaving the Qin Family Old Mansion, Lu Xiao found a nearby restaurant.

The small restaurant was next to a university town, and it just so happened to be dinner time, so it was pretty crowded.

Lu Xiao waited ten minutes just to get a seat, and it was an outdoor spot.

But he didn’t mind these details, and after sitting down, he started ordering food — six dishes, one soup, three servings of rice, completing the order by scanning a QR code.

"Stop looking and come over." After putting away his phone, Lu Xiao waved in a certain direction.

Soon enough, Chen Fei and Chen Han, the siblings, sat opposite Lu Xiao, looking tense.
