Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 282: Banning You is Just a Matter of My Word ( - s 281 and Combined)

Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Banning You is Just a Matter of My Word (Chapters 281 and 282 Combined)

But now was not the time to think about that. She gathered her emotions and said to the group of colleagues and friends standing at the door, "Everyone go back and rest."

The crowd gradually dispersed, with Lin Xiaoxiao being the last one to walk out of the door.

Once again, Lu Jinyang’s voice echoed in the room, "I need an answer tonight, and don’t play tricks in front of me. I heard that the Lin’s and the Lu Family have several new collaborative projects, if..."

Lin Xiaoxiao, pausing mid-step as she was walking out, suddenly turned around to look at Lu Jinyang, observing his handsome figure and his muscular chest, a flicker of sorrow passing through her eyes.

"Jinyang brother, is she... really that important to you?"

Lu Jinyang’s cold and emotionless face showed not a hint of fluctuation, "Lin Xiaoxiao, don’t think just because the Lin’s have ties with Lu Minghao through the Lu Family you can act recklessly. Just as my father can offer you benefits, I can also revert you back to your original state."

Lin Xiaoxiao had never seen such a cold side of Lu Jinyang before.

Every time she saw him before, he was neither cold nor hot, but never like now, completely devoid of any emotion.

She sniffled, "I understand, I will definitely give you an answer tonight."

Having said that, she left without turning back.

Lu Jinyang stared at the closed door, seemingly deep in thought.

Shortly after, a woman’s voice came from the bed, and he withdrew his gaze and strode over.

The quilt had been almost completely kicked off by the woman, and the towel that had been wrapped around her was gradually loosening with her movements, revealing a generous display of her figure.

Lu Jinyang’s dark eyes narrowed dangerously.

The long cold shower he gave her in the bathroom couldn’t diminish the drug’s effects; it seemed they had used a substantial dose.

Hmph!

For touching his woman, they need to know the consequences, or what if this never ends?

Suddenly, he bent over, his slender fingers pinching her chin neither too lightly nor too heavily, forcing her to look him in the eyes.

"Do you know who I am? Hmm?"

Even though he knew her consciousness was somewhat unclear, he still wanted to confirm whether she would mistake someone else for him after taking that drug, or rather, he wanted to see if she would resist the touch of another man.

Zhuang Shuqing found it very uncomfortable to have her chin pinched. Feeling the considerable strength from the other person, she instinctively wanted to break free. However, once she heard the familiar voice, she stopped moving.

In her haze, she heard the man ask who she was, and with narrowed eyes, she suddenly smiled foolishly, "Husband, you’re my husband~"

Upon hearing this, the man’s handsome brows and eyes seemed very pleased as they relaxed.

Zhuang Shuqing was not happy about this.

Just now, the man’s fingers felt cool, a comforting touch on her chin, and she instinctively wanted more.

She started kicking off the quilt, even more fiercely, and by the time Lu Jinyang looked at her again, she had also rubbed off the towel.

In the past, Zhuang Shuqing, out of fear of being overheard, would deliberately keep her voice down, but today her mind was somewhat muddled, and her urgent need in certain aspects made her completely forget about that.

...

Late at night, Lin Xiaoxiao returned to the doorway of room 909 once again.

She had made her decision; rather than sacrificing herself, it was better to hand over the person involved. To her, Fangfang was just a pawn, nothing more.

Lin Xiaoxiao straightened her clothes, putting on what she believed to be a perfect smile. She reached out, ready to knock on the door.

However, her hand hadn’t yet touched the door when the sounds from inside the room made her hand freeze mid-air.

She didn’t seem to believe what she had heard was real, so she pressed her ear against the door. The varying and moaning sounds from inside the room entered her ears clearly. Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly recoiled, staring at the door with reddened eyes.

This wasn’t a dream. As an adult, how could she not recognize those sounds?

For a moment, her heart felt like it was being sliced open, filled with persistent resentment.

Who said Lu Jinyang wasn’t drawn to women?

It was because those "women" didn’t catch his fancy.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn’t know how long she had stood at the door. She originally planned to wait for the sounds inside to stop before knocking, but her legs were growing sore and the sounds showed no sign of ceasing.

She gave the tightly shut door a difficult glance before finally walking away.

Jinyang, I fulfilled my promise to you, yet you never gave me a chance to speak.

Today will be her last day working at Mo Entertainment.

Tan Biyang followed Si Nanchen to the parking lot. Suddenly he stopped and stared at her with an ambiguous look.

Tan Biyang felt somewhat guilty under his gaze, so she tried to change the subject, "Nanchen, shall we buy some local products for your parents to take home?"

Si Nanchen sneered, "Tan Biyang, don’t call them so affectionately, they are my parents."

Upon hearing this, Tan Biyang stiffened, then dropped the act.

"Young Master Si, are you sure you want to talk about this in such a public place?"

Si Nanchen glanced at her and silently got into the car, while Tan Biyang also took her seat next to him in the passenger seat.

Seeing that he didn’t start the car, she knew he insisted on clarifying tonight’s events before they could leave.

"Young Master Si, just ask whatever you want to know."

"Hmm, at least you know what’s good for you. Did you ask me to go to Room 909 because you already knew Zhuang Shuqing was inside?"

Tan Biyang admitted, "Yes! So what, I delivered her right to your lips, and you let her slip away."

Si Nanchen didn’t respond.

Tan Biyang continued, "I don’t know how Lu Jinyang ended up there, but indeed, you lost a great opportunity. Such chances are rare."

"Besides you, who else is involved in this matter?"

Tan Biyang didn’t hear clearly.

Si Nanchen repeated what he just said, but his tone was colder than before.

Tan Biyang suddenly laughed, "You are really strange. We brought her to you on a silver platter, and you ask me this question, isn’t it superfluous?"

"Tan Biyang, banning you is just a matter of a word from me, are you sure you want to talk to me like that?"

"Of course not! Young Master Si, you’ve changed," she fell silent.

Before, Si Nanchen was a fearless rich heir, doing whatever he wanted without considering others’ feelings. Tan Biyang had heard about him being beaten up, but didn’t know who did it, and she never saw Si Nanchen file a report.

The day he came to her, asking if she was willing to enter a sham marriage with him, Tan Biyang saw the changes in him from that day up until now – evident signs of growth.

Without addressing what Tan Biyang said, he told her, "Don’t forget what our marriage is for. Now, I no longer need your help with what I have to do. Weigh your options carefully, or you will be left to perform this play by yourself."
