Chapter 92: Thats Very Sensible of You!

Chapter 92 That’s Very Sensible of You!

On hearing Hong Ling’s harsh words, the woman brought there by Qi Lu looked as terrified as a scared quail.

To put it bluntly, the woman was just a gold digger who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Hong Ling immediately lost interest in her after seeing that the woman dared not to argue.

Qi Lu’s eyes lit up. He had dallied with many women, but none of them had a queen style.

Hong Ling’s aura suppressed the inexperienced model, but could not suppress Qi Lu, who was from a rich family.

“What a wonderful speech, Miss Hong Ling.” Qi Lu praised her, and then turned to look at the model and said with a frown, “Get lost quickly! You’re not qualified to compete with Miss Hong Ling for favors.”

The woman ran away in silence for she dared not to go against Qi Lu or she would lose her job as a model.

Hong Ling’s expression turned colder, and if it were not for the sake of the Qi Family, she would have slapped Qi Lu on the face. “Competing for favors? Are you kidding me, Young Master Qi?”

Qi Lu stared at Hong Ling closely with barely suppressed interest in her. He did not answer Hong Ling’s question but handed a wooden box that contained jade to her.

However, Hong Ling did not even look at the box, let alone take it.

Qi Lu smiled before replying, “These pieces of jade are useless to me. Since you’re interested in them, how about I sell them to you at one hundred yuan, Miss Hong Ling?”

Qian Duoduo was dumbfounded again. “You idiot! How could you sell what you bought with 80 million yuan at one hundred yuan?” Qian Duoduo yelled in secret, and at the moment, how he wished he could become Hong Ling and accept Qi Lu’s request.

Chu Xun’s eyes glittered as he looked at Qi Lu with interest. He realized that Qi Lu was not an ordinary playboy but a thoughtful man.

Hong Ling was slightly surprised but soon realized what was going on. She accepted the box elegantly, put it away, quickly wrote a check, and handed it to Qi Lu.

Qi Lu took the check and was surprised. He said with a smile, “Miss Hong Ling, you might have misunderstood me. I mean, you only needed to pay me one hundred yuan, not 80 million yuan.”

“Young Master Qi, you were born in a notable family, so I understand that you take 80 million yuan as one hundred. However, I was born in a poor family, and our cases are very different. In my eyes, one hundred yuan is as much as 80 million. So please take the check, though, in your eyes, it’s ‘one hundred yuan’, but in my eyes, it’s 80 million.”

Hong Ling uttered the words slowly, and what she meant was clear—Young Master Qi was nobler than her, and they were not from the same world. Everyone could tell that she was refusing him in a euphemistic way.

Qi Lu certainly understood her words as well, but the desire of getting her in his heart was much stronger than the frustration of being turned down.

It was hard to see a beauty as stunning as Hong Ling. Qi Lu thought if he could get her, it would become a memorable milestone in his life in terms of pursuing women.

Qi Lu pretended that he did not understand Hong Ling’s words, and when he finished organizing his words and was about to speak, his expression suddenly froze on his face.

He saw the handsome man who stood aside opened the box and took out one piece of jade to observe as if there were no one else.

The scene made Qi Lu very angry. The jade was a gift that he gave Hong Ling in person, so no man should touch it except him.

Chu Xun picked up one piece of jade, felt its aura, and nodded. It was indeed a piece of fine ancient jade full of spiritual energy, and was exactly what he needed.

After putting down the jade in his hands, he picked up another piece of jade to observe.

“Put it down!”

Qi Lu snapped.

He could put up with women in high key but hated pretentious men.

As Qi Lu saw it, Chu Xun appreciated the jade one piece after another deliberately to show his taste.

Chu Xun looked up at Qi Lu with an indifferent expression and asked flatly, “Why?”

“Because you don’t deserve touching these pieces of jade,” Qi Lu said with iron certainty.

That was because Chu Xun had not said a single word since he came in.

When a man with a woman had no right to speak, he was probably a bodyguard of the woman or was kept by the woman...

Pooh!

Qi Lu made a pooh sound in secret and felt he guessed the thing in a way as if he were cheated on.

“But I’ve touched it.” Chu Xun was speechless and did not know why Qi Lu targeted him.

He wondered if he was the type of person who could arise others’ hostility easily.

A vicious expression flashed across Qi Lu’s eyes. As a famous playboy in Gujiang City and influenced by his family, Qi Lu was absolutely not a softhearted man.

Just as one big shot once said, big families upheld jungle law and would spare no efforts to train their descendants so as to make like wolves.

Compared with other young men born in rich families, Qi Lu was shrewder because he had started to deal with his family business.

“You were able to touch these pieces of jade because of the good deeds your ancestors did, but don’t do it again.” Qi Lu looked at Chu Xun threateningly, signaling him to put the jade down.

“Young Master Qi, it’s none of your business, isn’t it?” Hong Ling was a little anxious. Different from other families, some members of the Qi Family were officials and overlords of some territories. Hong Ling was afraid that things would become troublesome if Chu Xun killed Qi Lu in anger.

Chu Xun narrowed his eyes and realized that Hong Ling would help Qi Lu must because Qi Lu had a powerful background.

Hong Ling said the words not only to remind Chu Xun of Qi Lu’s background but also to save Qi Lu indirectly. However, she did not expect her words to make Qi Lu even more irritated.

Qi Lu was an arrogant man because he could afford the price of being arrogant. His second uncle was the mayor of Gujiang City, and his eldest brother, whom he admired the most, was the commander of the special forces of the country and had a license to kill before reporting.

Qi Lu firmly believed that Hong Ling could not get out of his control.

Therefore, he did not allow any man to touch her, especially a man Hong Ling took initiative to defend.

“Miss Hong Ling, who is he?” Qi Lu asked with a grave expression as if he had caught Hong Ling cheating on him.

The words enraged Hong Ling very much. She hated being questioned like that.

“Young Master Qi, since we’ve paid for these four pieces of jade, we’ll take them away with us. Good bye!”

Chu Xun smiled at the moment. He closed the box and was about to leave.

“Stop!”

Qi Lu stepped forward and stood in Chu Xun’s way, saying with a cold smile, “Miss Hong Ling could leave, but you can’t.”

“Oh?” Chu Xun showed a meaningful expression. “You have a crush on Miss Hong Ling, but why you want me to stay here? Don’t you think that you fu*ked with the wrong person?”

As Chu Xun teased Qi Lu, other people in the room all had a strange expression.

Hong Ling looked at Chu Xun in astonishment.

Qian Duoduo tried hard not to laugh.

Qi Lu looked at Chu Xun with disgust in his eyes as if he wanted to swallow him alive.

Chu Xun was a little puzzled and did not know what was going on.

Among those who were present, only Chu Xun did not how erotic his last sentence was.

Seeing Chu Xun’s expression, Hong Ling knew that he said the words unintentionally. She didn’t think Chu Xun, a fairy man, was a veteran playboy.

“Let’s go, Mr. Chu!” said Hong Ling.

Chu Xun scratched his head, nodded, looked at Qi Lu, who stood in front of him, and said, “Could you please move away?”

“I’ve told you, Miss Hong Ling could leave, but you can’t,” Qi Lu said in a domineering way.

“Young Master Qi, what do you mean?” Hong Ling was both angry and worried. “You’re courting death. You have no idea how frightening this man can be.”

“Why did you try so hard to defend him, Miss Hong Ling?” Qi Lu asked Hong Ling, staring at her with a strong desire of getting her in his eyes.

“Because...” Hong Ling stuttered because she did not know what kind of a relationship she had with Chu Xun either.

“We’re friends,” Chu Xun chimed in, not because he wanted to explain it to Qi Lu but because he wanted to tell Hong Ling they were friends.

“Friends.” Hong Ling was surprised to hear the word. She knew, in Chu Xun’s eyes, Bai Renjie and Bai Renxiong, the Second and Third Young Masters of the Bai Family, were just like dogs.

When Hong Ling heard the word “friends”, she was a little dazed, and for the first time, she thought the word was the greatest blessing from God.

She had never expected that she could make friends with Chu Xun, and her beautiful face brightened as brightly as the sun.

Qi Lu stared at Hong Ling fixedly and shouted in silence that he must get her.

Besides, Qi Lu thought that Chu Xun’s action of saying he and Hong Ling were just friends before Hong Ling could answer was a compromise.

Thus, Qi Lu thought that Chu Xun was a coward.

Soon, Qi Lu patted Chu Xun on the shoulder with a bright smile and said, “Good, that’s very sensible of you. Come to me if you’re in trouble and leave Miss Hong Ling alone.”

Chu Xun was slightly surprised but soon realized Qi Lu misunderstood his words.

“Where should I go to find you?” asked Chu Xun.

His words surprised Hong Ling a little.

Chu Xun looked indifferent at the moment. If it were the past, he would have skinned Qi Lu and even killed him.

However, Chu Xun changed his mind now. During the time he went to Gujiang City from Yunyan City, he always had a strong desire to kill and was often in a brutal mood.

This was the sign of the devil appearing in his heart. If he could not make remediation in time, his cultivation base would be unstable, and it would even impact his cultivation in the future.

Therefore, he did not mind teasing Qi Lu to ease the morbid feeling in his heart.

Qi Lu was annoyed. He did not expect Chu Xun to take his thoughtless words seriously. He squinted at Chu Xun as if he were saying, “Look at yourself, do you really think that you’re qualified to see me? You do have no self-knowledge.”

Though he was annoyed and cursed Chu Xun in secret, he did not show any trace of his feeling on his face. “Listen, you can find me at the head shop of Qitian Jewelry on Beihua Street,” Qi Lu said in a loud and proud tone.

...

Qitian Jewelry was one of the most lucrative businesses of the Qi Family. Moreover, there were over 500 branches of Qitian Jewelry in the country, and its head shop was on Beihua Street and was under the charge of Qi Lu. From this, one could tell the Qi Family placed high hopes on Qi Lu.

“Haven’t you said that you want to buy a gem bracelet? Let’s have a look at Qitian Jewelry. With Young Master Qi, we may get a discount. What do you say?” Chu Xun said to Hong Ling while staring at her.

Hong Ling was dazed for a moment, but soon she reacted and nodded with a smile, saying, “Good idea, but I’m wondering if Young Master Qi would welcome us to go there.”

“Of course, I do...” Qi Lu was overjoyed. As long as Hong Ling went to Qitian Jewelry and learned his power, he would be closer from getting her onto his bed.

Hong Ling peeked at Chu Xun and found the latter expressionless.

Hong Ling sighed in secret that Qi Lu would be in trouble.

Meanwhile, she felt amused. Chu Xun was so aloof that even when he tried to plot against someone, he still bore an aura of a nobleman, and the aura would betray him.

If Chu Xun knew that Hong Ling was laughing at him for his poor acting skills, he would show bitter smiles. Though he was trying to integrate with city life, he found it hard to change his habits which he got during the 3,000 years when he was in the other world. Besides, when he was still the Immortal Emperor, about a hundred tribes and a thousand countries worshiped and surrendered to him. As a result, it was impossible for him to get rid of his aura as a ruler.

“Young Master Qi, it’s a deal. We’ll visit you tomorrow,” said Chu Xun.

Qi Lu frowned and was unhappy to hear the word “we”.

“How about we go there now? Qitian is open 24 hours a day, so there is no difference between us going there in the daytime or at night.” Qi Lu tried hard to persuade them.

He now was burning with sexual desire provoked by Hong Ling’s hot figure. Since he had driven away the woman he brought there, he must have someone else to replace her, or he would get sick if his desire could not be satisfied.

He had a plan in fact. When Chu Xun and Hong Ling went to Qitian Jewelry, which was under his control, they would be at the mercy of him.

Chu Xun raised the corner of his mouth and smiled coldly before saying, “I agree. Let’s go there now.”

Hong Ling pretended to be hesitant for a while and finally nodded her head reluctantly.

Qi Lu smiled brightly and almost burst into laughter. He led the way for them in a hurry.
