"You know the Lu family values ​​their reputation, so you deliberately threatened to run away from home to blackmail us, trying to take advantage of the Lu family and get more things, right?"

"You tricked my second and fourth sisters, but I won't! Come on, let's go downstairs!"

Lu Yi remained unmoved, shaking off her hand. "A scheme? What kind of scheme?"

Every word he uttered was cold and hard as iron, like pebbles hitting someone's eardrum, instantly sobering Lu Baoqi up considerably.

She stared blankly at the handsome, aloof face beneath the disheveled hair.

This seemed to be the first time she had been alone with Lu Yi.

This guy, whom the whole family hates, turns out isn't bad-looking at all!

She couldn't answer Lu Yi's questions, because these were all things Lu Han had been repeating over and over the past few days, and she was just parroting what he had said.

Ignoring her strange gaze, Lu Yi pointed to the door and said, "Get out of here yourself, or I'll help you choose quickly!"

They came to provoke him time and time again, and Lu Yi's patience was running out.

Don't treat other people's bottom lines like rubber bands.

When they bounce back, they'll only hurt themselves.

He shoved Lu Baoqi with one hand and led her straight to the hallway outside, his eyes as dark as the deep sea. "Don't push your luck!"

Lu Baoqi steadied herself by leaning against the wall and took Lu Yi's arm, which was in a cast.

"Wait a minute, you didn't go to work at Honey Sweet Sweets for no reason, did you?"

"You can refuse to come back with me, but don't blame me when that shop changes hands!"

Lu Yi stared into her eyes and pried her fingers apart one by one.

There's no doubt how important that shop was to Lin Xiaoya!

If Lu Baoqi tries to sabotage things, all of her efforts will be in vain.

Only when Lu Baoqi's last finger left her cast-covered arm did Lu Yi's eyes flicker slightly, and his tightly pursed lips part slightly.

"If you don't want to die too soon, I advise you not to even think about making a move on her!"

Lu Baoqi shuddered. "It's all your fault for forcing me to do this. If you had just agreed..."

Lu Yi's expression hardened, and with just one look, she obediently swallowed the rest of her words.

"I'll go with you!"
