Chapter 368: Chapter 366: The Exorbitant Hamburger (2nd Update)

At the moment, Lu Tianxing was blissfully unaware that he had caught the eye of the siren, Lin Yafei. Had he realized it, he probably wouldn’t have been sleeping so soundly and sweetly.

As the first rays of sunlight streamed in through the window in the early morning, Lu Tianxing opened his eyes. Not finding Bai Zhiqing beside him was still something he was getting used to.

Last night, Lu Tianxing hadn’t returned to Bai Zhiqing’s room to sleep but had made do in another guest room. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go back to bed, but rather, Bai Weiwei had taken over Bai Zhiqing’s room, claiming that the two sisters had some secret talks and then ruthlessly kicked him out.

"This little sister-in-law is always causing trouble. It seems I’ll have to find the time to teach her a lesson, then put her and Bai Zhiqing in the same bed, to sleep beneath the same big blanket. Let’s see if she dares to be so arrogant again."

Lu Tianxing got out of bed, stretching and hearing his joints pop like popping beans.

"Bang~" "Bang~"

Just then, someone knocked on the bedroom door.

"Who is it?"

"Brother-in-law, it’s me. Are you up yet? I’ve brought you the sweetest and most delicious breakfast. Open the door."

The crisp voice of Bai Weiwei, like that of a lark, came from outside.

"Coming, just a moment."

Lu Tianxing casually replied, freshened up a bit, changed into more casual clothes, and walked out.

Upon opening the door, Lu Tianxing immediately saw Bai Weiwei standing there with a sycophantic smile on her face, holding a hamburger and a cup of hot milk in her hands.

"Good morning, brother-in-law. Are you hungry? Here, this is the breakfast I prepared for you this morning, a fragrant hamburger and hot milk. See if you like it."

The moment Bai Weiwei saw Lu Tianxing come out, her face immediately broke into a flattering smile, the very picture of an obsequious toady.

"Weiwei, what are you up to?"

Seeing this, Lu Tianxing immediately became wary of Bai Weiwei. He knew that unsolicited generosity was either a trap or a steal, and he didn’t believe for a second that Bai Weiwei had kindly prepared breakfast for him. It wouldn’t surprise him if the milk had salt in it or the hamburger was filled with mustard. Bai Weiwei was entirely capable of such deeds.

"Brother-in-law, what is that look for? I am just trying to show some care for you. If you really feel bad about it, just give me some spending money, and that’s all. I don’t need as much as my sister, just give me ten million, no, one million will suffice. I’m easily contented. Brother-in-law, how about it? Considering the effort I made preparing your breakfast, can you give me some spending money, please?"

Bai Weiwei pouted displeasedly, then her eyes glimmered with anticipation as she stared at Lu Tianxing, as if she were looking at a shiny mountain of gold.

The night before, she had heard from her sister that Lu Tianxing had transferred one billion dollars of spending money to her. One billion dollars—and that’s just spending money! By that logic, this future brother-in-law must be loaded. Even a hair plucked from his leg would be enough for her to live on for a lifetime.

The Bai’s Group is wealthy, the Bai Family is wealthy, but that wealth isn’t hers. Bai Zhiqing kept tight control over her allowance; her monthly spending money was just ten thousand, which would disappear with the purchase of a single bag. Now that she had snared a wealthy brother-in-law, how could she let him go?

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Weiwei, who was full of longing, with a pained expression. Just as he thought—offer favors without a cause, and one must either be plotting or thieving. His little sister-in-law was actually setting her sights on him too.

"Brother-in-law, don’t you worry, I can assure you, I absolutely won’t misuse this one million, I won’t squander it around, I pledge on the reputation of Bai Weiwei."

Seeing that Lu Tianxing was silent, Bai Weiwei quickly assured him, almost to the point of swearing an oath.

Lu Tianxing let out a bitter laugh and said, "Weiwei, fawning over me is useless now. I’m broke, I don’t have a single penny left. It’s all been taken by your sister."

In the past, a million was nothing to him, but now, he was penniless. Forget about a million, he couldn’t even come up with ten thousand.

"Really? Brother-in-law, you’re not just making up excuses because you don’t want to give me money, are you?"

Bai Weiwei looked at Lu Tianxing with a face full of skepticism.

"What good would lying to you do me?"

"Fine then, just give me back my breakfast. If you’re broke, just say so. You’ve wasted my time. I’m going to see my sister. Goodbye."

Bai Weiwei stared at Lu Tianxing for a moment. Her smile vanished, and she made a contemptuous face before snatching the milk and burger from Lu Tianxing’s hands and scurried off toward Bai Zhiqing’s room.

"Aiyah, fuck, she flips faces quicker than flipping a book."

Lu Tianxing’s expression turned dark. He clenched his hand, where moments before he held a yet-to-be-warmed breakfast, now vanished, leaving a speechless look on his face. He suddenly realized that these two sisters, indeed borne from the same father, were cut from the same cloth—one used her ~charms~ to swindle him out of one billion dollars, while the other was about to sell a glass of milk and a burger at an astronomical price.

After breakfast, under the suggestive gazes of He Cailan and Bai Qiao Mountain, Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing finally left the house. As they walked out into the cool breeze, Lu Tianxing could feel the cold sweat soaking through his shirt at his back.

Bai Qiao Mountain and He Cailan were just too formidable, crazed with the desire to have a grandchild. Their daily question was always the same: "When do you two plan on having a child? We are longing to hold a grandchild. Is there any sign yet? Feeling nauseous? Do you like eating sour things?"

These words left Lu Tianxing speechless. He did want to have children, but it was Bai Zhiqing who disagreed. What could he do if she didn’t agree? He couldn’t have a baby by himself.

As they exited the house and headed for the garage, Bai Zhiqing, as usual, went to start the car while Lu Tianxing waited on the side. Now, Bai Zhiqing was guarding Lu Tianxing closely, strictly forbidding him to drive.

Once in the car, Bai Zhiqing started the engine and drove towards the exit of Ziyuan District.

"Eh, what is she doing here?"

As soon as they left Ziyuan District, Bai Zhiqing suddenly exclaimed with surprise and turned her attention to the road not far away.

On the side of the road nearby stood a very beautiful woman.

This woman was dressed in a fitted black business suit. The dark suit accentuated her curvaceous figure, and her neatly pinned-up hair gave her an aura of allure. Her eyes, as gentle as water, along with her pure visage, emitted a pitiable charm. Looking at her, it was as if you were seeing your first love again—simple yet unforgettable.

The woman was none other than Yue Tingting.

Seeing Yue Tingting standing on the side of the road, Lu Tianxing inwardly sighed.

Last night, after being goaded by Bai Zhiqing, Yue Tingting was determined to carve out her own career and become a successful businesswoman just like Bai Zhiqing, no amount of persuasion could dissuade her. He had no choice but to agree with her for the time being.

Then he told her that if she truly wanted to get some experience, she had to go to Bai’s Group and was not allowed to go to any other company. He couldn’t rest easy otherwise.

Lu Tianxing had originally thought that by setting these conditions, Yue Tingting would back down, but he never expected her to be so stubborn and actually appear at the entrance of Ziyuan District.
