Chapter 325 Absolute Neutrality
When Cheng Yi heard Rex's words, his brows furrowed and his face immediately darkened.
He stood in front of Lu Qian, a murderous aura surging from his body, "No, she can't gamble with you."
Rex put his hands behind his back and smiled at Cheng Yi, his tone extremely frivolous: "Do you still have a chance to negotiate with me? Don't forget, the effect of the medicine in your body is about to take effect."
When Lu Qian heard this, alarm bells immediately rang in his mind.
"The effect of the medicine?" She pulled Cheng Yi aside and looked at his face in horror. "What effect?!"
Cheng Yi had a cold expression on his face. He stroked Lu Qian's hair and said in the softest tone possible, "Nothing."
"How can it be nothing?!" Lu Qian yelled.
This medicine must be related to Charité Hospital and Louis, and it is specifically used to deal with Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi pursed his lips and remained silent.
“Hahahahahahahaha——”
Suddenly, a loud laugh erupted from Rex's direction.
"Eden, you're really willing to make yourself like this for such a woman, tsk tsk tsk."
He shook his head, looking very disappointed in himself.
"But having her around really saves me a lot of trouble."
"I'll tell you something in secret," he glanced at Cheng Yi, took a few steps forward, and walked in front of Lu Qian, "He volunteered to be injected with nerve poison so that I could bring him to you."
"In less than an hour... your beloved man will be paralyzed~"
In Lu Qian's eyes, that smiling baby face was now a murderous devil's minion.
She looked up at Cheng Yi in shock, her face suddenly pale and her eyes red, "Is what he said true...?"
“???”
"Master—"
"Boss!!"
…
Suddenly, there were bursts of anxious shouts from the stands, and everyone was about to run towards the center.
They obviously didn't know that Cheng Yi was actually injected with this dangerous drug under the threat of Rex.
"Don't come over here!" Cheng Yi roared towards the stage.
Their weapons were taken away by Rex. If they rushed up rashly, they would only seek death.
"Boss!" Qi Huang and Ling Shuo were obviously not prepared to obey orders. Facing countless gunshots, they were about to fall from the stands.
"Back off!" Cheng Yi ordered coldly.
"Be careful, if you get your boss excited, the medicine will work faster." Rex said with a smile.
"..." Qi Huang suddenly froze in place, his brows tightly locked, his fists clenched until veins popped out, and his eyes began to turn slightly red.
On this side, as soon as Rex finished speaking, Lu Qian clearly felt that the weight on her shoulders suddenly increased, and the weight of the man who was hugging her was pressing down uncontrollably.
He couldn't even stand...
She looked up and saw that the whites of Cheng Yi's eyes were already showing signs of turning golden.
Lu Qian's already pale face suddenly turned even paler, and panic and fear surged into his heart.
She stared blankly at his eyes which were gradually losing focus, biting her lower lip tightly, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
The scene in front of Cheng Yi's eyes became increasingly blurred. He simply relied on his muscle memory to gently stroke Lu Qian's cheek.
"Don't cry, I don't like you crying for me," he said in a low voice, obviously weak, but very soft and gentle, "When you cry, my heart seems to be grasped by something and I can't breathe."
"I didn't cry." Lu Qian rubbed his eyes hard, trying his best to keep his voice calm.
Cheng Yi chuckled softly: "When did you learn to lie?"
"I didn't cry." As if to prove it to him, Lu Qian said it again in a sonorous and powerful voice.
Cheng Yi raised his hand and rubbed the two obvious tear marks on her face, "Little liar."
He couldn't see it, but he felt it clearly.
"I can't stand anymore, hold me up." He leaned on Lu Qian's shoulder like a naughty boy, smiling gently with a malicious look, just like how he used to tease her.
"If only I could see you one last time," he said, gently caressing Lu Qian's eyebrows with trembling hands. He could hardly see anything in front of him, and could only caress over and over again, trying to restore the face he loved so much. "You are clearly in my mind, so why do you still want to see it with your own eyes?"
His voice was very soft, yet still so low and sexy.
Lu Qian frowned fiercely. Although there were no tears in his eyes, his whole body was shaking violently.
She pulled Cheng Yi's hand down and placed it in front of her body, her frail body almost bearing all the man's weight.
"I will." Lu Qian spoke softly, his voice extremely gentle, yet extremely certain.
"We still have many, many years to come, and you'll have to watch me grow old and ugly for the rest of my life.
Watch me run towards you at the wedding, watch our children grow up, and then die in each other's arms.
We sleep together in life and study together in death."
The gentle words drifted into Cheng Yi's ears and vibrated deep into his soul.
His five senses were gradually fading, but his golden-brown eyes were flashing with light like glass stars.
It seems that Lu Qian's gentle words are really the fuse of hope.
"Old rules," Lu Qian smiled, looking up at Cheng Yi with eyes as gentle as water, "If we die here, I will give you a passionate kiss."
"If we get out of this alive, I'm going to hear you say those three words."
When Cheng Yi heard these familiar words, his eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.
The corners of his mouth curled up subtly, that gentle yet malicious smile, as always, "You actually found out. I really wanted you to die with me.
No other man can lay a finger on you."
When Lu Qian heard this, he laughed out loud: "Oh, I knew you were such a bad person."
"Ha—" Rex yawned impatiently, fiddling with the cards in his hand, "Is the separation of life and death complete?"
Lu Qian frowned, helped Cheng Yi to the chair, and gently kissed him on the forehead, "Wait for me."
She took two steps forward, raised her face, and looked at Rex with a pair of cold eyes, without losing any momentum.
"I'll bet you."
The tone and momentum did not reveal the tenderness of parting with Cheng Yi just now.
Lu Qian raised his eyes and scanned the people in front of him, "But I have a condition."
Rex casually threw a card in front of Lu Qian, "Go ahead."
"Let me appoint the dealer."
As soon as Lu Qian finished speaking, everyone in the room fell silent.
"Oh, let you designate?" Rex sneered, full of contempt.
He thought that Lu Qian might make a similar request, but did she think he could agree?
Lu Qianhuan blinked twice, a relaxed smile playing on the corner of his mouth, "Don't worry, I'll appoint a dealer, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Her tone was frivolous and teasing, and she was really trying her best to reassure Rex.
"Mr. Rocky." Lu Qian spoke, but his eyes were still on Rex.
She turned her head, looked at the elegant old man standing next to Rex, and called out softly.
"Would you like to be the dealer for this game?"
When these words were spoken, everyone present, including Rocky, was visibly stunned.
On the stands.
"That's the butler of the L family! Why did Lu Qian choose him?" Ling Shuo grabbed Qi Huang's arm and shook it.
"I...I...how would I know!" Qi Huang started to stutter.
"She, she, she..." Huang Li said "she" for a long time without saying a word.
Jiang Luan pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose, his brows furrowed tightly, and he couldn't say anything.
"I believe...Boss." Lei Ya leaned in Qingli's arms, covering her injured shoulder, and squeezed out these words from between her teeth.
“…”
The rest of the people were speechless.
Indeed, at this moment they had no choice but to trust Lu Qian.
After a moment of digestion, Rocky smiled slightly and tilted his head in confusion, "Miss, I am also the master's man."
What he meant was that he would not show any favoritism towards Lu Qian, and he was only loyal to the head of the family.
As for the position of the head of the family, it doesn’t matter who holds it.
"I trust you."
Lu Qian's eyes were extremely firm, as if Rocky was an old friend she had known for many years, and now she was placing all her hopes on Rocky.
Without waiting for Rocky's agreement, Lu Qian looked at him and continued, "Mr. Rocky, I just need you to remain neutral."
"Let this game, let everywhere you look, remain neutral."
Lu Qian picked up a card in front of him and held it in front of Rocky.
"With the wishes of all the living and the dead, like the goddess Themis..."
Rocky listened to Lu Qian's words, looked at the cards in front of him, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
The card clearly said: BOOM!
And Lu Qian's voice, along with this BOOM, came into my ears:
——"Absolute neutrality."
