Chapter 63: A Collusive Agreement



The next day, Zhou Qian arrived at the agreed location on time. It was a nice tea restaurant and she booked a private room.

Half an hour later, Lu Qianqian and Lin Chenyi arrived late.

"Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road." Lu Qianqian sat down opposite Zhou Qian.

Zhou Qian didn't care whether she was stuck in traffic or was intentionally leaving her out in the cold. She got straight to the point and asked, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Eat something first and then we can talk slowly." Lu Qianqian called the waiter over and ordered a bunch of expensive dishes.

The intention was very clear. While annoyed Zhou Qian, he also showed off his wealth.

After all, it would be strange if the boyfriend and his fiancée across the street could eat it.

Zhou Qian saw Lu Qianqian's intention, but didn't say anything. He waited for the dishes to come and started eating without any hesitation.

It looked like he was in a hurry to finish his meal and leave.

While cutting the steak, Lu Qianqian looked at Zhou Qian's full mouth, frowned, and a look of disgust appeared in her eyes.

She said with a half-smile, "Miss Zhou, you have to eat the food slowly to appreciate its flavor. You are really ruining this delicious food by wolfing it down like this."

Zhou Qian looked up at her and said, "Taste it slowly. Can what you pull out turn into gold bars?"

"..." Lu Qianqian's mouth twitched, and she lost her appetite for the steak that was brought to her mouth. She frowned and put the steak back.

She shouldn't have eaten with such an uncultured person like Zhou Qian. It was disgusting.

Zhou Qian was not affected at all. After eating and drinking, he wiped his mouth and sat down to wait for them to eat.

Lin Chenyi had no appetite and put down his chopsticks not long after Zhou Qian finished eating.

When Lu Qianqian put down her chopsticks, Zhou Qian spoke again, "Can you tell me now?"

"You seem anxious?"

Lu Qianqian couldn't help but feel suspicious. She sent a message to Zhou Qian two days ago, but she didn't even reply. She also said she needed to think about it when she called yesterday. Why was she suddenly so anxious today?

As the saying goes, when things are out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong.

Is Zhou Qian up to some trick?

Zhou Qian simply said, "Since this is a win-win situation, of course I want to see the results as soon as possible."

Lu Qianqian looked at her, her eyes seemed to see into Zhou Qian's heart, but Zhou Qian's eyes were too calm, so she withdrew her gaze and lit a ladies' cigarette.

"I'm curious, why did you suddenly choose to cooperate with us?"

"I haven't agreed to cooperate with you yet. I came here today just to hear whether the temptation you offer is enough to impress me."

Lu Qianqian sneered, looking at Zhou Qian with disdain, "People like you just want money."

Zhou Qian shrugged nonchalantly, "It's just the same for everyone."

Lu Qianqian dealt with Lu Jing because she was afraid that Lu Jing would compete with her for the family property.

Now that it has come to this, Lu Qianqian doesn't want to waste time, "Okay, after you help me get this done, I'll give you one million."

As expected of a rich family's daughter, she casually speaks of millions.

Although the million was very tempting, Zhou Qian remained calm and said, "Then tell me about your million."

"Has Lu Jing been with you these days?"

When Lu Qianqian asked this question, Lin Chenyi stared at Zhou Qian.

Zhou Qian ignored Lin Chenyi's gaze and said, "Sorry, I can't tell you about personal matters."

"What if I tell you that what I want you to do is to deal with Lu Jing?"

Zhou Qian and Lu Qianqian looked at each other and said calmly and clearly, "For me, it doesn't matter who I deal with."

Lu Qianqian narrowed her eyes, "Don't you like Lu Jing? You know, he didn't hesitate to turn against me in order to save you."

Zhou Qian laughed, "You think too much. Lu Jing saved me because I owed him some money, and he didn't want it to go to waste."

"Why do you owe him money?"

"My father owed a loan shark and was being hunted. It was Lu Jing who paid the money to redeem him."

"Then why did he save your father?" It was not surprising for Lu Jing to kill and set fire to Lu Qianqian, but she absolutely did not believe in the act of showing mercy and saving people.

"Then you have to ask your fiancé." Zhou Qian glanced at Lin Chenyi.

Lu Qianqian turned to look at Lin Chenyi, "What's the problem between you and Lu Jing?"

This is also what Zhou Qian wants to know. It depends on whether he can get some clues from Lu Qianqian.

"What grudge could there be between him and me? He probably just feels unconvinced when he sees us working together."

Lin Chenyi certainly knew that Lu Jing was pestering Zhou Qian to disgust him, but there was no way he could tell him what happened back then.

Lu Qianqian glanced at Lin Chenyi, knowing that he was not telling the truth, and did not continue to ask. However, she figured out one thing: Lu Jing and Lin Chenyi had a conflict, so he deliberately got together with Zhou Qian to annoy Lin Chenyi.

Zhou Qian knew that he was Lu Jing's tool, so he decided to cooperate with them.

If things are sorted out this way, there is nothing to question about Zhou Qian's behavior.

"Zhou Qian, aren't you afraid that if Lu Jing finds out, he won't let you go?"

"I owe him so much money, and he had no intention of letting me go. Besides, who would like to have a million incense?"

"Very good, I like realistic women." Lu Qianqian smiled with satisfaction. She knew that no one from a poor background like Zhou Qian could withstand the temptation of money.

"You find a way to get Lu Jing to eat this. After you're done, you can take the money and leave." Lu Qianqian pushed a small transparent bag containing pills in front of Zhou Qian.

Zhou Qian picked it up and took a look. "What is this?"

"You don't need to know what it is, just do what I say."

Zhou Qian threw the bag onto the table. "No, that won't do. What if it's poison? I'll be charged with murder."

Lu Qianqian laughed and said, "Don't worry, this thing won't kill anyone. At most, it will make him addicted."

Addicted...

It's not hard to imagine what it is.

"Are you sure no one will die?"

"Lu Jing made me notorious, and it was too easy for him to die so easily." There was murderous intent and cruelty in Lu Qianqian's sinister eyes.

Zhou Qian's pupils shrank and a chill ran down her spine. This was the first time she witnessed the horror of human nature.

It was hard for her to imagine what kind of deep hatred could drive two people of the same blood to the point of life and death.

For a wealthy family like the Lu family, even if they don't fight or compete, the personal wealth they earn is enough to live a comfortable life. Why would they break the law for money?

When Zhou Qian got off work, he received a message from Lu Jing.

[Beef, chicken wings, potatoes, eggplant, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, fish, soft tofu, fatty pork, cilantro, eggs.]

By the end, Zhou Qian’s two delicate eyebrows were about to be twisted together. After buying so many vegetables, was he planning to open a restaurant in her house?

Zhou Qian held his phone and replied to the message, [Are you addicted to eating free meals? ]

【Three million is enough for me to live on till I die.】

【If you continue to eat like this, you will only live to fifty.】

【Fifty is not enough?】

Then another message came, [I don’t know how many people didn’t even live to be 49.]

【……】

So, if you can get a free meal and eat something ready-made, you should be grateful.

That seems to be the case.
