Mr. Liang put down the teapot, his face becoming more serious. "I don't care if you're short of money or not, you're not allowed to bully Xiao Qian."
"She..." Lu Jing snorted softly, "She's not that easy to bully."
"I have a good impression of this girl. She looks like a good girl."
Lu Jing didn't respond. He just divided the black and white pieces and started the game.
Mr. Liang held the chess piece in his hand, thinking about the chessboard. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something. "Oh, right, I heard you were looking for a little girl. After all these years, do you have any clues?"
"Yeah." Lu Jing replied lightly, holding the teacup.
Elder Liang put down the chess piece in his hand and looked up in surprise, "Found it?"
"I found it a long time ago."
Compared to Mr. Liang's caution, Lu Jing casually placed a black chess piece.
"Why haven't I heard you mention it?"
Lu Jing's eyes dimmed, and he said without interest, "There's nothing much to say."
Elder Liang saw through his emotions and speculated, "Is the little girl married?"
"No."
"So you have a boyfriend?"
Lu Jing fell silent, placed another chess piece, and then spoke lazily, "I was cheated by a scumbag."
Elder Liang frowned and sighed, "It proves that the little girl has a simple mind."
"It's stupid."
"Why don't you get him back? Be careful not to get cheated again."
"It's boring."
Mr. Liang placed a chess piece down and said earnestly, "If you can't let go of that knot from back then, go find the person and ask them clearly. If you don't have any feelings towards them, just let it go."
"Put it down?" Lu Jing's tone became much colder, and he dropped a piece. "Impossible!"
"Perhaps they were forced to do so back then, or perhaps there was some misunderstanding."
Lu Jing fell silent, looking at the chess game on the table, his mind filled with confusion, resentment and hatred that had been entangled for so many years.
…
On the way back from Mr. Liang, Lu Jing met Zhou Qian who came to look for him.
Because the conversation with Mr. Liang just now affected his mood, Lu Jing didn't give her a good look when he saw her and changed direction.
"Lu Jing, I have something to ask you." Zhou Qian jogged to catch up with him.
Lu Jing stopped there with his hands in his pockets, "What do you want from a piece of trash like me?"
"..." Zhou Qian choked, "Let me ask you, was my presence at your place last night related to what happened with Zhang Ning and Liu Sisi?"
"What else can I do?"
Zhou Qian's eyes flashed, "They want to mess with me?"
First of all, her relationship with Liu Sisi and Zhang Ning was not good enough for them to go out to look for her in the middle of the night. Secondly, when Liu Sisi led people to the backyard, she was very sure that the person inside was her, which means that she knew it in advance.
"They didn't get you, but I got you instead. How are you going to repay me?" Lu Jing curled his lips, but there was no trace of smile in his dark eyes.
Zhou Qian didn't listen to what he said next. She was only certain that Zhang Ning and the others really wanted to get rid of her, and they were using such shameless and vicious means.
Zhou Qian clenched his hands hanging at his sides. This matter couldn't be let go like this.
She turned around and left, determined to settle the score with Zhang Ning and Liu Sisi.
"Where are you going?" Lu Jing grabbed her.
"Let go!" Zhou Qian looked fierce.
"There was no surveillance footage of them drugging you. Even if there was a surveillance camera on the way to the backyard, it was so late at night that nothing could be seen clearly. They wouldn't admit it."
So... she was also drugged?
"You said they drugged me? What drug?"
"Need I ask?"
Zhou Qian was stunned for a moment, then he had the answer in his mind, "I can go to the hospital for a test. There must be some residual drug in my body after a few hours."
"And then?" Lu Jing's face turned serious. "Let everyone know that you were drugged and slept in my bed last night?"
“…” Zhou Qian was speechless.
But she couldn't understand why they used such vicious means against her since she had no grudges against Zhang Ning and Liu Sisi?
Thinking of this, Zhou Qian felt scared and couldn't imagine what he would be like now if it weren't for Lu Jing.
She clenched her fists tighter and tighter, still holding her breath in her heart, "Even if I can't do anything to them, I'm going to slap them twice."
Lu Jing sneered, "Being gang-raped doesn't make you feel better than being slapped in the face?"
Zhou Qian looked at him and didn't comment.
At this point, she roughly understood what was going on. Zhang Ning and Liu Sisi wanted to get rid of her, but were discovered by Lu Jing.
Lu Jing rescued her and found out that she had been drugged, so they had sex yesterday, and he retaliated by punishing Zhang Ning.
Thinking back to the morning, she suspected that Lu Jing had knocked her out and had bad intentions towards her. She really wronged him.
That's why he told her to watch her mouth in the morning, otherwise she would cry and kneel down to lick him, just because he saved her.
Lu Jing added, "Mr. Liang has suppressed this matter. Zhang Ning and Liu Sisi shouldn't cause you any trouble."
"Just because I didn't go and settle accounts with them doesn't mean this matter is over. If they dare to come and find me, I will kill them."
Zhou Qian's ferocious eyes were filled with anger, hatred and murderous intent.
Lu Jing looked at her coldly, "Are you still trying to say that since you only have one worthless life, it's worth it to drag two rich young ladies down with you?"
“…” How did he know what she was thinking?
Lu Jing snorted coldly, "Throwing an egg against a stone isn't stupid, it's ridiculous."
Zhou Qian understood what he meant; it was simply that she was overestimating her own abilities. However, since he had saved her, she didn't argue with him.
"Instead of thinking about useless things, you should think carefully about what you should say to me now."
Zhou Qian felt guilty for scolding him that morning, so he thanked him in a muffled voice, "Thank you for yesterday."
Lu Jing scratched his ears and leaned towards her. "What did you say? I didn't hear you."
"..." Zhou Qian looked at his nagging look and wanted to kick him. Then he shouted into his ear, "Thank you for last night."
Lu Jing took a step away and rubbed his ears, "Are you so easily fooled by a piece of trash like me?"
“…” Wow, he’s good at picking out words.
Zhou Qian would not change his opinion of his character just because he saved her, and of course he would not apologize.
He just said, "Then tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."
Lu Jing's worst intention was to let him sleep.
"That's quite sincere." Lu Jing curled his lips, "But I haven't thought about it yet. I'll keep it for now and talk about it when I think of it."
“…” And bring something like this?
Zhou Qian rolled his eyes speechlessly in his heart and shouted at his back, "When will you give me the things you promised to fix for me?"
Lu Jing paused, turned around and looked at her playfully, "Come and knock on the door tonight, and I'll tell you."
“Go to hell!”
