Elsewhere.
Lu Lingche had been waiting for a response from Godkiller for quite a while, but none came. He had already made up his mind that Godkiller was the one who repaired the video.
He mulled it over and sent another message to Godkiller, “As long as you’re willing to fix the video for me, I can fulfill my promise of one million US dollars.”
Then, he shut down his computer and left the office.
Once he left the office building and got in his car, Lu Lingche realized it was raining lightly again.
Usually, whenever it rained, Lan Yuyi would call him to accompany her, but today, there was no call.
Lu Lingche found this slightly odd but dismissed it.
Only when he returned home did he understand why Lan Yuyi hadn’t called him today.
Because she was already at his house.
“Lingche, you’re finally home. I was about to fall asleep waiting for you.”
Lan Yuyi’s voice was gentle. As she spoke, she stepped forward, intending to grasp Lu Lingche’s arm.
However, Lu Lingche took a step back, avoiding her hand, “Why are you here?”
With a flush of shyness, Lan Yuyi explained, “Aunt Yao said we’re going to get married on the 25th. I am going to be your wife and should not be living separately from you. In the future, we will live together.”
“I’m still not divorced from Qiao Yin, I can’t marry you yet.”
“I know you will divorce her. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, I will wait. Lingche, I want to give our child a complete family, a loving environment where the child can grow up happy.”
“I’ve told you before,” Lingche’s voice was indifferent, “I will not be a real husband to you. Love is out of the question.”
Lan Yuyi lowered her tear-filled eyes, “I know, I’m not asking for much. We can pretend to be in love for the sake of the child, to give him a happy childhood. Once he’s older, we can part ways.”
Lu Lingche looked at her teary-eyed face, feeling a headache coming on, “I promised my elder brother that I would take good care of you, and that will never change. But taking care of you doesn’t mean I have to marry you. We don’t need to waste our time by pretending to be a couple. The Lu Family will raise the child after it’s born. You are still young and can start over. I think that is what my elder brother would have wanted.”
Lan Yuyi turned chalk-white, “You…you want to kick me out? Want to separate me from my child? No! I will never allow myself to be separated from my child!”
“That’s not what I meant. You are always welcome to visit your child at the Lu residence. If you don’t want the Lu family to raise the child, you have the right to raise the child yourself.”
Tears slid down Lan Yuyi’s face, “Lingche, you have been lying to me all along, haven’t you? You never intended to divorce Qiao Yin. You are unwilling to take responsibility for me or the child. You see us as a burden, and you want to drive us away.”
Lu Lingche frowned deeply, “That’s not what I mean.”
“I have seen the news.”
“What news?”
“The news of you romantically embracing Qiao Yin by the seaside. You have been deceiving me all along. What you said about taking care of me was just polite talk. I was naive enough to take it seriously. Do you think this is what your elder brother would have wanted? You didn’t take his final words to heart!”
Lu Lingche had also seen that piece of news today. The public relations department had even asked him whether they should do anything about it, to which he said there was no need.
Because there was nothing romantic between him and Qiao Yin, she was more likely to kick him to death. His legs were still covered in bruises.
But just like he didn’t feel the need to explain his relationship with Lan Yuyi to Qiao Yin, he didn’t feel the need to explain his ‘thing’ with Qiao Yin to Lan Yuyi.
As for his elder brother—
This was his trigger point, one that nobody was allowed to touch!
Not even Lan Yuyi..
