The assistant received the news, and immediately reported to her immediate superior: “President Lu, Miss Qiao is here.”
Lu Lingche offered an insipid nod, showing no response on his face.
He already knew she would surely come.
This was all part of the trap that he had set just to make her come.
As for what he would do after she arrived, whether he would scold her to tears, or strangle her to death, he had not yet decided.
Having not seen her for half a month, he found himself somewhat eager to meet her.
He was indeed getting more and more abnormal.
Soon, the door to his office was pushed open.
Qiao Yin walked in.
“Lu Lingche!”
She had only said these three words, when she became dazed.
Because in his office, there was one more person apart from him and his assistant – Qiao Lainan.
Qiao Lainan was still wearing a pink dress and white canvas shoes today, exuding a gentle youthful aura.
She was brewing tea. Seeing Qiao Yin enter, she gently smiled, “Cousin, you’re here.”
Qiao Yin never expected that Qiao Lainan would be in Lu Lingche’s office and that she seemed to have won Lu Lingche’s favor, or else he wouldn’t have let her make him tea.
In the past, he never allowed anyone else in his office, not even Lan Yuyi.
No matter when she came, it was always only him and his assistant, never any other woman.
Why did she feel like she had been hit by a surprise blow?
She had secretly imitated Lan Yuyi for a long time, but Lu Lingche had never liked her.
But Qiao Lainan had only imitated for a few days, and now he liked her?
Didn’t he only like Lan Yuyi?
So, why did he quickly develop an interest in Qiao Lainan?
Seeing Qiao Yin standing there in a daze, Qiao Lainan felt a sense of superiority.
She offered a cup of tea, handing it to Qiao Yin, “Cousin, you don’t look so good. Have some tea. This is something my brother-in-law, oh no, President Lu just bought. Try it, cousin.”
Qiao Yin was in a state of turmoil, her mind hadn’t caught up with everything, but her hand automatically took the cup of tea.
Seeing her accept the tea, Qiao Lainan deliberately pinched her wrist.
Qiao Yin’s wrist hadn’t fully healed from a fracture. A squeeze brought an instant groan of pain.
The scalding tea immediately spilled onto her hand.
Her hand turned red in an instant.
The pain drained all the color from Qiao Yin’s face, also allowing her chaotic mind to quickly clear.
She immediately lifted herself out of her stunned state, her voice clear but cold, “Lu Lingche, what’s the meaning of this? Did you instruct her to throw me off balance?”
Lu Lingche frowned at her scalded red hand and calmly replied, “That wasn’t my intention.”
Qiao Lainan hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry, cousin, it wasn’t intentional, don’t be angry! I just wanted to offer you tea, I didn’t know it would burn you, it’s all my fault!”
Qiao Yin tugged at the corner of her mouth, feeling an eerie sense of deja vu, “You’re really worthy of resembling Lan Yuyi so closely. Even in the way you speak, you’re similar. Hypocrites like you, harming others, use the same pattern, don’t you?”
Qiao Lainan was on the verge of tears, “Cousin, what are you talking about? I don’t understand?”
Qiao Yin didn’t want to get bogged down with her, her target today was Lu Lingche.
“Lu Lingche, why did you stop my father from selling herbs? You have warned every pharmaceutical company not to purchase my father’s herbs, you’re utterly despicable!”
Lu Lingche got up, with proportionate strides he walked up to Qiao Yin and coldly stated, “You are in no position to call me despicable! You are the most despicable, taking a bribe of five million to kill my child. You are not human!”
His imposing demeanor was too imposing and his proximity too close, forcing Qiao Yin to step back.
Her voice full of sarcasm, “Lu Lingche, aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning for saying that? Wasn’t it you who asked me to abort the child? How come it’s suddenly me who killed your baby? There should be a limit to your distortions!”
