Chapter 134: My Chest Hurts, Help Me Rub It
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Okay, I promise you. But you must bring this rift between our family and the
Taos to a beautiful close so no one can hold it against you.” Old Patriarch Lu compromised.
“No problem.” Lu Zhi agreed readily.
Old Master Lu glared at him and said, “You used to be so pure of heart and free from desires. You didn’t take any woman seriously, but you fell so hopelessly for this girl?”
In the old man’s eyes, Jiang Yining was indeed different from other girls.
She was quite attractive.
But not to the extent of being unparalleled or being “the one” for him.
Why did Ah Zhi fall for her?
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Great-grandpa wouldn’t understand.” Lu Zhi said calmly.
Old Patriarch Lu was speechless.
Jiang Yining waited and waited in the living room, but Lu Zhi hadn’t appeared. She deeply suspected that Old Patriarch Lu had asked someone to detain him. Just as she couldn’t take it anymore and got up to go to the study and check, footsteps suddenly rang out from the stairs.
Jiang Yining quickly put down her tea and pretended to be calm as she looked in the direction of the stairs.
Sure enough, in the next second, Old Patriarch Lu and Lu Zhi appeared in her field of vision.
Although the two of them still did not look happy, at least they didn’t look as scary as before.
Old Madam Lu was even more anxious than Jiang Yining. She hurried up to them and said, “Dad, please reconsider your decision. Ah Zhi has done so much for the Lus. Can you…”
Before she could finish, Old Patriarch Lu said, “I’ve already decided to keep All
Zhi in the Lu family. However, as a punishment, he must clean up the mess with the Tao family.”
Old Patriarch Lu’s voice was dignified, like he was granting amnesty.
Old Madam Lu heaved a sigh of relief, but she quickly remembered Jiang
Yining. “And there’s no punishment for her?”
“All Zhi has already suffered on her behalf. I gave him 30 lashes.” Old Patriarch Lu then warned coldly, “You are a daughter-in-law of the Lu family.
Remember to behave yourself. Don’t be as reckless as you were, because I won’t let you off so easily next time!”
Jiang Yining was stunned.
That was it?
Old Patriarch Lu did not give everyone time to react and strode away.
After a long while, Old Madam Lu recovered from her shock and felt that something was amiss.
After going around in circles, nothing happened to Jiang Yining? Not even a little punishment?
“Dad!” Old Madam Lu chased after Old Patriarch Lu.
Jiang Yining walked up to Lu Zhi and asked worriedly, “Did Great-grandpa really give you thirty lashes?”
“Yes.” Lu Zhi nodded.
“Where? Does it hurt?” Jiang Yining felt guilty.
Lu Zhi could have stayed out of this matter, but he had to go against his family and even got punished for her.
“Here.” Lu Zhi grabbed her hand and rubbed his chest with it.
Through a thin veil that was his shirt, Jiang Yining could feel his heart pounding.
She was stunned for a long time before she abruptly retracted her hand and bit her lower lip.
“Rascal, how could Great-grandpa hit you there?”
“He didn’t hit me here, but it hurts here.” Lu Zhi replied coldly with a serious face.
However, his pitch-black eyes seemed to be on fire, threatening to melt people into ashes.
Jiang Yining spat, “You can die of pain for all I care!”
She then turned and ran away.
Lu Zhi looked at her fleeing figure and a faint smile spread in his low and hoarse voice.
The next day was the weekend. Jiang Yining woke up and pestered Lu Zhi to ask him what he had to do to make Old Patriarch Lu compromise.
She wanted to do her part.
After all, he was dragged into this because of her.
However, no matter if how she acted cute, coaxed him, or threatened him, he wouldn’t reveal a thing. He just told her to wait and watch the drama unfold.
Jiang Yining had no choice but to give up.
Soon, another day passed.
Jiang Yining had been invited to Xiao Yeyu’s tea party.
She didn’t want to go at first, but Xiao Yeyu kept calling her phone to say that Ye Xiaoxi had already arrived and they were both waiting for her.
Jiang Yining had no choice but to turn up.
Lu Zhi waited for her to hang up before he asked, “Whose house are you going to?”
“Xiao Yeyu, your business partner.”
Lu Zhi took a while to recall her name. He then said coldly, “Ah, her. 1 didn’t expect you to be so close to her.”
He worked with at least a thousand partners like the Xiao family every year.
He paid no attention to them except during partnership discussion and contract negotiation.
However, if she liked it, he would let her be.
“Alright, I’m going to pack my things and get ready for the party.”
“I’ll go with you.” Lu Zhi threw the newspaper aside and stood up.
“Aren’t you busy?”
She just saw Ah Man carry a large pile of documents into his study.
“How can work be more important than spending time with my wife?”
What provoked this guy recently that every other sentence he uttered sounded like he was flirting?
Jiang Yining looked at him strangely.
Lu Zhi didn’t seem to mind at all. He grabbed her hand and pulled her along domineeringly.
After a quick preparation, Jiang Yining walked out of her room and saw the housekeeper standing beside Lu Zhi with a pile of gifts.
The two of them were obviously waiting for her.
“Why did you get all these?”
“Presents for you to give away.” Lu Zhi replied calmly. “All socialites like to compare themselves. When Kexin attended similar functions in the past, she was mocked for not knowing the rules.”
He saw with his own eyes that Kexin’s eyes were red and swollen from crying because she didn’t prepare gifts.
Therefore, he remembered it very clearly.
He didn’t want her to have the same bad experience.
Jiang Yining didn’t expect the socialites in China to be so vain. It was just that a few women sitting together for a tea party, but they had to compare themselves by giving gifts.
“Thank you for being so considerate.”
“Aren’t you jealous?” Lu Zhi asked.
Jiang Yining looked at him in confusion. Why would she be jealous?
Lu Zhi looked at her dumbfounded expression and patted her head. “Let’s go.”
It was really hard to guess what this man was thinking when he said words that came out of nowhere.
The two of them arrived at the Xiao residence by car.
When their car stopped, they saw many luxury cars parked along the Xiao residence driveway.
Several socialites arrived at the same time as them.
When they saw Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining, they whispered to each other.
They seemed to be discussing how Xiao Yeyu was so capable that she managed to get Lu Zhi to come.
Both Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi ignored them.
They walked into the Xiao family villa.
They had just walked in when Xiao Yeyu, who was wearing a red tube dress, welcomed them warmly.
She had fair skin and a good figure. Her outfit made her look charming, sexy and elegant.
She was stunning.
Many of the men present had their eyes firmly fixed on her. Even Jiang Yining could not help but reveal a surprised expression when she saw her.
“Yining, you’re finally here!” Xiao Yeyu hugged Jiang Yining and said affectionately.
She then let go of her and greeted Lu Zhi gracefully, “Mr. Lu, I didn’t expect to meet you again so soon..”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
