Chapter 83 When do you and Miss Jiang plan to get engaged?

Lu Yan looked at her calmly, but he already had a bad feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, the next second, Jiang Xueyao revealed her trump card: "Lu Yan, it's fine for you to have a mistress, I've always turned a blind eye to it, but now you're actually willing to jump into the sea for a woman?"

Jiang Xueyao took out her cell phone, opened the photo she had just received at the dinner party, and held it in front of Lu Yan. It was a photo of Lu Yan jumping into the sea without hesitation to save Li Qingqing.

"If my grandfather knew about this, what would he do to your little lover?"

Jiang Xueyao's smile didn't reach her eyes. "Being deeply in love is a heinous crime in a business marriage. You're dying for a woman. That's not right."

"Do you know what's the biggest fear in a business marriage? That's right, it's something like [love] that's hard to control. If this unstable factor appears in a business marriage, what do you think will happen if my grandfather finds out?"

Lu Yan looked at her coldly: "Jiang Xueyao, are you threatening me?"

Jiang Xueyao smiled and said, "Didn't you threaten me first?"

She laughed even more wantonly, "Lu Yan, just be engaged to me."

Although it felt very uncomfortable to be threatened, Lu Yan knew that Jiang Xueyao was right. He knew the Jiang family's methods. Now the only way to protect Li Qingqing was to get engaged to Jiang Xueyao.

"Don't touch her, I'll get engaged to you."

He finally compromised.

Jiang Xueyao didn't say anything, gave Lu Yan a victorious smile, and walked away swayingly.

Lu Yan stood there, silently lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath into his lungs.

Jiang Xueyao's words kept echoing in his mind, giving him a splitting headache.

He couldn't let anything happen to Li Qingqing, absolutely not.

That night, Lu Yan returned to Wanhua very late. Li Qingqing heard the door open and ran over to hug him.

"Why are you back so late today?"

The sweet scent of the girl lingered around him, making him feel briefly at ease. He held her little face in his hands and kissed her without saying a word.

He was especially gentle tonight. He kissed her over and over again, as if nothing was enough.

Li Qingqing cooperated with him with all her strength and never called for a stop from beginning to end, even though she could hardly bear it anymore.

…

After that, Li Qingqing played with his fingers and told him that she would go to Country F to participate in the International Dessert Competition in two months.

"Are you going alone?" Lu Yan was a little worried. He hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her neck.

"Go with my boss." Li Qingqing told him truthfully.

Lu Yan felt a little unhappy, but didn't say much.

"What's the exact time?"

Li Qingqing counted on his fingers, "The competition date is December 5th. We have to go there three days in advance to prepare and come back after the competition."

Just in time to avoid his engagement date.

"That's great. Will your net worth double after you come back?" Lu Yan pinched her waist.

"It's not certain whether I can win the award." Li Qingqing shyly peeled away his restless hands.

Lu Yan stopped talking and quietly enjoyed the sweet talk in bed at this moment.

…

For the next two months, the two of them spent rare sweet moments together, until the day before Li Qingqing was going abroad, when Lu Yan suddenly said mysteriously that he wanted to give her a gift.

Li Qingqing followed him to a prime residential area in the city center. As the car drove past, Li Qingqing discovered that this was a fairly high-end residential area, even more high-end than Wanhua.

She was a little stunned for a moment, not knowing what the gift Lu Yan mentioned had to do with this place.

Lu Yan drove the car into the underground parking garage, then took her hand and entered the elevator. The elevator was very new and quiet, without any small advertisements, not even on the display screen.

The elevator door opened to a residential door, just like Wanhua's.

The two stood at the door, and Lu Yan suddenly looked at her mysteriously, "Do you want to guess the door lock code?"

Li Qingqing smiled awkwardly: "How can I guess that?"

Lu Yan didn't say anything, but just looked at her with a smile, his smiling eyes slowly turning into an affectionate gaze. Li Qingqing seemed to sense something, and her happy mood of waiting to receive the gift suddenly became gloomy.

She looked at him as she reached out and peeled off the cover of the combination lock.

"Try it."

Lu Yan tapped his chin lightly towards the door lock, his eyes still fixed on her with deep affection.

Under his gaze, Li Qingqing entered her birthday without any hesitation.

"drop--"

The door lock opened.

In an instant, she seemed to understand something, and her eyes suddenly became sore, but she still hid her emotions and pretended to be surprised.

"You're not going to give me a house, are you?"

She looked at him in disbelief.

Lu Yan did not deny it, but held her hand tightly and led her into the living room.

At first glance, this house is much larger than the one in Wanhua. The furniture is fully furnished and the overall design is much softer than that of Wanhua.

The living room has huge floor-to-ceiling windows, which allow plenty of sunlight to shine in every day, so you won’t feel lonely even if you live alone.

The kitchen is very large and is fully equipped with all kinds of tableware and kitchen utensils, so making a full banquet is no problem.

Bedroom, guest room, dressing room, study... everything you need is there, even the soft furnishings are arranged.

Lu Yan took her to see the layout of the entire flat.

"Don't you always say my bedding is very comfortable? It's a Norwegian brand. I prepared ten sets for you. It should be enough for you to use for a long time."

"I bought all the clothes and shoes according to your size. I didn't buy too many because I was afraid they would be out of season."

"besides……"

Before Lu Yan could finish his words, Li Qingqing hugged him from behind. She hugged him very tightly. It was the first time that Lu Yan knew that a girl could be so strong.

His nose suddenly felt sore, but he quickly adjusted his mood.

"Do you like this house?"

He didn't look back and stood still in her arms.

Li Qingqing didn't say anything, but just hugged him until Lu Yan felt his back was wet.

He turned around, held her shoulders, and wiped her tears with heartache.

"Okay, why are you crying? If you don't like this house, I'll buy you another one, or ten and you can choose from them."

His tone was extremely gentle when he said this, and Li Qingqing cried even harder after hearing it.

Lu Yan knew why she was crying, but he had no choice. He lowered his head to kiss her tears, which tasted salty and bitter...

Li Qingqing kissed him on the lips, held his face and kissed him for a long time until the sobbing stopped, then she separated from him.

"Are you feeling better?"

Lu Yan wiped away her tears and asked her softly.

Li Qingqing nodded and then forced a smile.

"I don't like this house. Let's go back." She took his hand and walked out the door.

Lu Yan held her, his eyes full of tenderness.

He pulled her to sit on the sofa and handed her a bank card.

"There's 100 million in this card, which isn't a lot. If you don't like this set, you can use the money to buy another one you like. The remaining money should be enough for you to spend."

He pushed the property title in front of her again and said, "All the formalities for this house have been completed. It can be transferred to your name at any time. After the transfer, you can sell it or do whatever you want with it."

Li Qingqing didn't hear a word he said. She stared at him blankly, feeling extremely sad inside.

After a while, she finally woke up from her dream and said, "When are you and Miss Jiang going to get engaged?"
