Chapter 1741: He Is Actually Rather Dashing (11)
Qiao Yiyi twitched her lips and turned to look out of the window, refusing to speak another word.
Lu Nanze threw a sidelong glance at her and found himself smiling.
He had no idea what her escape plan had been, but when he saw her scornful smile then, he had been dazed.
The confidence that she had carried herself with told him how certainly unnecessary his aid had been tonight.
Even though she was injured, escaping from that sort of complex trap was a small matter to her.
Furthermore…
She had chosen to turn up knowing that it was a trap. It was a slap to Bai Anan’s face and also a warning to the client, that she could hold her ground in the world of organized crime.
The woman awoke multiple emotions in him. He felt a subtle urge to take her into his embrace.
Those emotions came so abruptly that he could not help turning towards her. She was staring back at him with her large eyes, full of caution. “So what is it that you want me to do for you now?!”
Lu Nanze paused.
He recalled that the last time he had saved her, he had asked her to steal the 1000-year-old ginseng from the Xu family. And this time, did she think he was going to give her some other task?
However, seeing how anxious she seemed, he took the opportunity to tease her.
He coughed slightly and said, “Ummm, let me think about it.”
Qiao Yiyi: …
She almost exploded, “Argh! I, your older sister, could have gotten away without you! What is this? Now you want your older sister to do you a favor?!”
Lu Nanze: …
Your older sister. Who had taught her to speak like that?
He narrowed his eyes as he looked ahead. “What’s up with the attitude you have when talking to me?”
Qiao Yiyi: …
What sort of attitude did he expect?
To be treated like her client?
Qiao Yiyi put on a smile instantly and said, “Well then, esteemed client, may I know what you’d like me to do for you?”
Lu Nanze: …
He cleared his throat and kept looking ahead as he drove. He said, “Let me take some time to think about it.”
“Alright then, as long as it doesn’t harm others and doesn’t involve doing something evil, or any sexual favors, I will be able to deliver as you please.”
After punishing the client, Qiao Yiyi was in a good mood and had started to chatter.
The man smiled.
But just as the corners of his lips curved up, Traceless asked, “But you came especially to save me? Why?”
The man replied, “… I was only passing by.”
“Uh huh, passing by in an ordinary Volkswagen sedan.”
Lu Nanze: …
It seemed that Qiao Yiyi had seen right through the lie.
He suddenly looked a little embarrassed and coughed slightly once. Then he said, “Ah, I rescued you because if anything were to happen to you, you won’t be able to steal that 1000-year-old ginseng for me.”
Qiao Yiyi sighed and said, “I thought that the client had feelings for me. Turns out it’s all about work, what a pity.”
The man was instantly relieved upon hearing this.
However the moment he relaxed, Qiao Yiyi continued, “But why did you tell Liang Liang I was dead? Also, you’ve spread news about me dying from a heavy injury, after being shot in the shoulder by Bai Anan!”
Lu Nanze: …!!
Qiao Yiyi sneered, “So would you, the client, like to explain this?”
Lu Nanze: …!!
How did she even know about this? He had been very careful to do it in secret.
