Chapter 8 Proposal
◎Would you like to get engaged to me◎
"Did you do something wrong?" Although Qin Yue's scolding was useless, at this moment, Qin's mother still opened her hands to block Qin Yue, trying to protect Qin Yue behind her.
"Even if it was murder, it was Qin Shu who almost killed me. She wanted to strangle me to death in front of everyone. Can't you see the mark on my neck?" Qin Yue's throat still hurt until now. She thought that Qin Shu's fingerprints must have been left there, so she stretched her neck and pointed to the place where Qin Shu had pinched her just now.
However, right after she did this, everyone's expressions changed. Even Qin's mother, who was standing in front of her, was stunned after looking back at her neck. All this made Qin Yue have a very bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next second, Qin Yue heard her mother speak hesitantly: "Xiao Yue... there is no mark on your neck."
"What? This is impossible!" My neck is still hurting, how could there be no trace at all?
Qin Yue refused to give up and continued to make a fuss. Qin Shu, who was standing beside her, turned on the camera on her terminal and pointed it at her: "Well, Miss Qin is indeed an actress. Her acting skills are not bad."
In the image captured by the terminal, Qin Yue's neck was white and smooth, without any deep pinch marks or even a red mark.
"This is impossible! You saw how she grabbed my neck just now! She really wanted to kill me! I understand, it's internal injuries, it must be internal injuries, I want to get an injury assessment!" Qin Yue kept shouting while violently waving away Qin Shu's hand holding the phone.
"I saw it, but you..." Mother Lu couldn't be sure for a moment. After all, the mark on the neck couldn't be faked. The only thing that could be faked was -
Mother Lu remembered Qin Yue's identity as an actor and shut up, although she had no idea what the point of Qin Yue acting out this act was. After all, it was Qin Yue who was suffering from the whole process.
"Let's go." The Star Alliance police couldn't stand it anymore. They thought that Qin Yue was just throwing tantrums and throwing dirty water on others because he heard that his deeds were exposed in order to avoid legal sanctions.
No matter how Qin's father and Qin Yue struggled, both of them were put on special electronic handcuffs. However, in order to protect their dignity, the police set the handcuffs to transparent mode. Now, apart from being able to see that the movements of their hands were slightly unnatural, no one could see the handcuffs on their hands.
"Wait a minute!" Seeing her husband and daughter about to be taken away, Mother Qin hurried to the door. She knew the situation was hopeless and that she shouldn't continue to argue. Instead, she should immediately return to Sigma 13 to seek help from other senior executives and lawyers at the Qin Corporation. However, it was impossible for her to let Qin Shu go. "Capture Qin Shu too. She just choked Xiaoyue. Everyone present saw it. Even if there were no injuries, it was still attempted murder!"
The police glanced at Qin Shu after hearing this. Qin Shu sighed helplessly and took a step forward consciously: "I am willing to cooperate with the investigation."
Zhou Yin became anxious upon seeing this, but she was not someone who would lie to protect her own people. In the end, she could only look to Xu Wen for help. After all, Xu Wen was the one who was fully responsible for Qin Shu.
But Xu Wen was very quiet and did not stop Qin Shu. There was even a look of evaluation in his eyes.
"Then you can come with us."
"Okay." Qin Shu nodded calmly, then said hello to Xu Wen and Zhou Yin, telling them not to worry about her.
Seeing that Qin Shu was about to leave, Lu Yishen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up, strode forward, and grabbed Qin Shu's wrist: "Please wait a moment."
"Mr. Lu, please do not interfere with our law enforcement." The police of the Interstellar Federation obviously knew the celebrity Lu Yishen.
"Sorry, I just wanted to talk to her for a minute."
"What do you want to tell me?" Qin Shu was a little curious. She and Lu Yishen didn't have much in common, did they? Could it be that he knew she had asked the Interstellar Federation to protect him?
Lu Yi took a deep breath, his handsome face showing an unprecedented seriousness and solemnity: "Let's get engaged."
"Ah?" Qin Shu guessed a lot about what Lu Yishen wanted to say to her, but she could never have guessed that Lu Yishen would say such words, so Qin Shu was stunned and wondered if she was hallucinating.
Not to mention Qin Shu, even the other people in the box were all stunned by Lu Yishen's earth-shattering words.
Is Mr. Lu proposing to the infamous Qin Shu?!
"!!!" The paparazzi hadn't dared to dream of such a shocking piece of news, and the real person had suddenly revealed it to them? Because the news was so honest, it immediately overwhelmed everyone, so everyone seemed to have lost their language system and could only express their shock with pupils shaking.
"I don't agree! I'm the one who wants to get engaged to you!" Qin Yue had been quiet for a while when she saw Qin Shu being taken away, but when she heard what Lu Yishen said, she immediately jumped up and down again, trying desperately to squeeze in between Lu Yishen and Qin Shu, but she was restrained and couldn't move forward at all. In the end, she could only object loudly and unwillingly.
But Lu Yishen didn't even look at her. He just looked deeply into Qin Shu's eyes and said, "Your parents may not have had the time to tell you that your father and my adoptive father are close friends. When we were young, our two families made a marriage contract. If we are both willing, it would be a beautiful story for our two families to become one."
"No, no! Didn't our two families agree on this? I am the real eldest daughter of the Qin family, and I am the one who should fulfill the marriage contract with you!" Qin Yue insisted. She may not like Lu Yishen, but Lu Yishen must belong to her!
"No, the engagement between her adoptive father and Qin Shu's father has nothing to do with your Qin family and Lu family." Zhou Yin couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when she heard this. Although she probably guessed that the Lu family must have despised Qin Shu for being an orphan and down-and-out, so they wanted to change the engagement to Qin Yue.
But obviously, Lu Yishen was unwilling.
Moreover, even if Lu Yishen is a member of the Lu family, this marriage contract was arranged by his adoptive father and is only related to Lu Yishen as a person, not to the Lu family as a whole.
Lu Yishen still didn't take his eyes off Qin Shu. His expression was still serious, but his tone was slow and gentle: "I don't recognize this engagement with anyone except you. Now - I am willing to fulfill this engagement, are you willing?"
Until this moment, Qin Shu's brain, which had just crashed, finally reacted. She looked into Lu Yishen's eyes, and saw that those eyes were full of sincerity.
Lu Yishen was serious, and Qin Shu quickly understood.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" But Qin Shu still couldn't figure it out. Her behavior just now would have scared anyone, right? Why could this person still look at her like that and say such words to her?
"Well... do you need me to be scared?" After a moment of hesitation, Lu Yishen asked Qin Shu for her opinion.
"Pfft." Qin Shu was amused by Lu Yishen's serious question about whether he should be afraid of her. "Okay, I'm willing to fulfill this engagement."
What could be better to protect Lu Yishen and ensure his safety than keeping him under one's own nose?
When Lu Yishen heard Qin Shu's reply, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Move your face closer." Unexpectedly, at this moment, Qin Shu suddenly spoke.
Lu Yishen was stunned when he heard that, but he still lowered his head slightly and bent over, moving towards Qin Shu. He acted very naturally. If it weren't for his slightly red ears betraying him, Qin Shu would have thought he was very calm.
Qin Shu rummaged through her pockets and pulled out a Band-Aid. It was a gift from the doctor yesterday when she was changing her dressing because he saw that she liked it. In fact, Band-Aids are of very little use in today's interstellar society. After all, if it is a minor wound, you don't even need a treatment chamber. You can just use a portable treatment device to quickly repair the wound. This kind of Band-Aid is only used by those people in the lower areas who cannot afford a portable treatment device.
Qin Shu didn't expect that she didn't use this thing herself, but gave it to Lu Yishen instead.
Qin Shu tore off the Band-Aid bit by bit, and then put the Band-Aid on the wound that Lu Yishen had just been scratched by Lu's mother.
"Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt now." The flesh-brown Band-Aid on his face looked a little funny, but because of Lu Yishen's good looks, it actually looked a little more fragile and rebellious, which was quite seductive.
"Give me your hand." Qin Shu nodded when she heard that.
"Ah? Oh, okay." Lu Yishen was confused, but he still handed over his left hand. As a result, he saw Qin Shu took out another Band-Aid, "Well, my hand is not injured."
"Yeah, I know." Qin Shu responded softly, but still took off the Band-Aid, then reached out and took Lu Yishen's slender fingertips, and carefully wrapped the Band-Aid around Lu Yishen's left ring finger.
"!" Looking at his circled ring finger, Lu Yishen raised his head in surprise.
Qin Shu also raised her head and smiled brightly, saying, "I don't have a ring, so you can just make do with it. I'll reserve this spot."
If Lu Yishen's ears were just a little red just now, now his whole face was red.
Even if Lu Yishen didn't look in the mirror, just by feeling the heat on his face he knew that his face must be so red that he couldn't face anyone.
But after Qin Shu finished speaking, she took his left hand and placed a light kiss on the Band-Aid.
"Then please give me more guidance in the future, fiancé."
"!!!" In an instant, Lu Yishen felt as if his heart was hit. It kept beating wildly in his chest, boom, boom, faster and faster, so fast that Lu Yishen subconsciously raised his hand and pressed his chest, as if someone would hear his heartbeat if he didn't do so.
"Let's go." But Qin Shu was nonchalant. She had no idea how moved the person in front of her was by her action. She just waved her hand and followed the policeman away cooperatively.
Only after Qin Shu completely disappeared from the corridor did Lu Yishen suddenly squat down and bury his head in his arms, revealing only a pair of ears that were as red as if dripping blood. No one heard him mutter softly, "Isn't this too unfair?"
