"Is Mr. Qin breaking the rules of the program?"
Jiang Duoduo had just sat down in the car when a male voice came from outside the car window.
Lu Ming appeared, bending down and resting his hand on the edge of the car window, his eyes fixed on the two people inside the car.
Qin Jue couldn't hold back and left suddenly. Lu Ming felt that something was very wrong.
Sure enough, the old man wanted to take Duoduo away.
"Director He has already told me about Duoduo's accommodation arrangements for tonight," Lu Ming added, glancing at Jiang Duoduo and tilting his head. "Duoduo, get out of the car."
Before Jiang Duoduo could answer, Qin Jue gestured to Lu Ming, "Get in the car."
"Why should I get in your car?" Lu Ming asked suspiciously.
"I said I would allow Duoduo to stay at your house tonight."
If Qin Jue hadn't brought it up, Jiang Duoduo would have completely forgotten about it.
Now that she's been reminded, she swallowed hard, put her hand on the car door handle, and said, "I...I think I'll just go back to the dorm."
The origin of the venomous snake is still unknown, so Qin Jue wouldn't allow her to return to the dormitory. He whispered in her ear, "I'll take you back later."
"Tch!" Lu Ming saw Qin Jue whispering to Duo Duo and smirked. It was so sour, but he didn't lose his temper here.
Jiang Duoduo really didn't dare to go back to the dormitory. She got into Qin Jue's car and left the factory because she didn't want to stay overnight at the production site. She was lucky to have escaped from the clutches of the venomous snake.
She wouldn't dare go to Lu Ming's house to spend the night; both ways lead to death, the only difference being the manner of death.
The man's whisper in her ear made her think for a few seconds, "Then you can't lie to me."
"I'm not lying to you."
Qin Jue rolled down the car window and gestured to Lu Ming outside, "Get in the car."
Seeing that Duoduo was actually pleased by Qin Jue's few words, Lu Ming forced himself to open the car door.
A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle; let's get Duoduo home first and then deal with the rest.
Almost the instant Lu Ming opened the car door, Qin Jue frowned and said coldly, "There's no room for you here. Get in the passenger seat."
"Why can't I fit in?" Lu Ming insisted on squeezing next to Duo Duo, quickly slipping in as he said, "It's not crowded at all."
Seeing that Lu Ming was about to squeeze in, Jiang Duoduo immediately moved closer to Qin Jue. However, she had only moved slightly when the man next to her easily pulled her onto his lap, using her as a human cushion, and tightly hugged her slender waist with both hands.
So much so that as soon as Lu Ming sat down, he noticed the old man's scheming, "What do you mean by letting Duoduo sit on your lap?"
Qin Jue completely ignored his words and said to Chen Xin, "Drive."
...
On the way to Lu Ming's private villa.
Every second, Lu Ming wanted to pull Duoduo off Qin Jue's lap and onto his own, but he only had this thought and didn't dare to do it.
He gritted his teeth and endured the passing of time, just wanting to get home as soon as possible.
Jiang Duoduo, sitting on Qin Jue's lap, pretended to play on her phone to ease the awkwardness, but her face looked terrible.
Undeterred, she said to Qin Jue again, "I'd better sit in the passenger seat; I'm a little uncomfortable sitting here..."
Lu Ming chimed in, "Did you hear that? Sister Duoduo isn't feeling well!"
Qin Jue glanced at Lu Ming sideways, then breathed hot air onto the face of the little woman on his lap, "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Let me rub it for you?"
"...No, no, I'm not feeling unwell, you misheard me."
"Hmm, it seems I must have misheard."
Lu Ming never expected Qin Jue to be this kind of person. He really didn't see it coming. He was both timid and bold, and he cursed, "Shameless."
Throughout the journey, Qin Jue thought he had the upper hand. However, when Duo Duo's phone vibrated, the situation changed dramatically.
Qin Xue had just finished a 20-minute emergency meeting when she came back and saw so many messages from Duo Duo, and she started to panic.
Qin Xue: [Why shouldn't you be allowed to come out? There haven't been any new talents yet!]
Qin Xue: [Wait for me, I'll be right there.]
Upon learning that the security guards wouldn't let her leave the Xinxiu Factory, Jiang Duoduo didn't just stand idly at the security room door; instead, she sought Qin Xue's help.
This news is a bit awkward.
Jiang Duoduo: [No need... I'm out.]
Qin Xue: [Just come out, come to me quickly]
Jiang Duoduo: [I'm afraid I won't be able to go.]
Qin Xue: [What's wrong?]
Jiang Duoduo: [I'm on my way to Lu Ming's house now]
Just as Jiang Duoduo finished speaking, the little boy beside her, who was peeking at her, tentatively asked in a childish voice, "Duoduo, are you chatting with Sister Xue?"
"Um."
"That's strange. Why did Sister Xue keep scolding my cousin for not being a good person? What happened?" Lu Ming paused, "Oh dear! I didn't mean to peek at Sister Duoduo's phone."
The chat interface was mostly filled with Qin Xue cursing Qin Jue and advising Duo Duo to stay away from Qin Jue.
She never imagined that Lu Ming would... intentionally spy on her.
Turn off your phone screen immediately.
Jiang Duoduo had been holding her phone since she got on the bus, and Qin Jue hadn't paid attention to what she was doing. But when he heard Lu Ming's words, he paused for a moment, his gaze shifting from the window to the woman's phone screen in his arms.
Seeing her nervously turn off the screen, she stammered, "No! Nothing!"
"Okay!"
Jiang Duoduo was relieved that Lu Ming hadn't pressed for details, but little did she know that he was just breathing heavily and there was more to his story: "Then I'll just go ask Sister Xue directly."
Jiang Duoduo panicked, "She...she won't tell you."
"How could that be? Of the entire Qin family, Sister Xue is the only one who's compatible with me for this shoot." As Lu Ming spoke, he took out his phone from his pocket.
"..." Jiang Duoduo was sweating profusely with guilt. It was around that time that she learned that her family's bankruptcy was caused by Qin Jue. She cursed Qin Jue a lot at Qin Xue before stepping on his car.
If Qin Jue finds out about this chat history, will he think that bankrupting her family was a wise decision...?
After Lu Ming and Qin Xue started chatting, Lu Ming said, "Tsk! Cousin, how could you do something like that to Duo Duo's family?"
“Sister Duoduo, if I were you, I would definitely slap him.” Lu Ming glanced at Qin Jue with great understanding and added, “Sister Duoduo is so pitiful. She has to be used by her cousin to fill her stomach, and her family has been ruined by her cousin. Now she is being threatened by her cousin.”
Lu Ming stared at Duo Duo's expression and saw that she seemed to have been persuaded by him. He emphasized, "If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be sitting on my cousin's lap right now, letting him do whatever he wants to me."
If Qin Jue hadn't revealed the truth that had bankrupted her family, or if the reason for their bankruptcy wasn't that, Jiang Duoduo would have already slapped Qin Jue across the face.
But once she learned the ridiculous reason, her anger truly vanished.
Lu Ming calmly anticipated the scene of Duo Duo's resistance, but Duo Duo didn't react at all.
Qin Jue glanced at him and said, "If you were Duoduo, I would take you off the bus right now."
