Chapter 638: Chapter 634 Lu Tianxing Who Feeds Poisonous Chicken Soup (1st Update)
Love, for ordinary people, might come very easily, even something they can casually compare, but for Mu Qingxue, it was a luxury.
Once you enter the doors of nobility, it’s as deep as the ocean, especially the most heartless imperial family.
She was not just a star, but also the little princess of the Mu Family; her every move could be said to represent the Mu Family, to represent the face of the Mu Family. The Mu Family would never allow her to casually pick a man to marry, let alone allow her to freely enjoy love.
To put it bluntly, for a great family like the Mu Family, women are at most seen as goods, as commodities that could be used to exchange benefits. Marriage and love were not under Mu Qingxue’s control at all. Maybe one day she would be promised to someone she had never met before in exchange for the benefits of the Mu Family.
Some people only see the limitless glory of the wealthy families but never the darkness behind it. Being born into a great family means that from the moment you are born, your marriage and future might already be determined. What you get is simply traded for with your happiness.
Mu Qingxue’s face turned somewhat gloomy. She might seem glorious on the surface, but in reality, she was walking on thin ice. One day, she might marry a man she had never met before, but she was not willing to give up like this. She wanted to chase her own happiness, not to become a tool for the exchange of benefits.
Bai Zhiqing looked at Mu Qingxue’s dim face and sighed softly. She understood Mu Qingxue’s pain. The imperial families were heartless indeed. For great families, their children might just be tools for exchanging benefits, not real family members. That’s why she was committed to developing Bai’s Group, to avoid becoming a sacrifice. Luckily, she eventually met Lu Tianxing.
"Qingxue, don’t be too pessimistic. There’s a saying, ’Where there’s a will, there’s a way.’ Maybe you’ll meet your true Prince Charming who will also be acknowledged by your family. I believe you will find him because beautiful girls are always lucky and the heavens won’t abandon you either."
"Zhiqing, is what you’re saying true?"
Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Mu Qingxue’s eyes brightened, and her gaze softly swept over Lu Tianxing, revealing an inexplicable meaning. Could he be the Prince who will help me break free from my shackles in the future?
"You definitely can. I believe that fate won’t just toy with you."
Bai Zhiqing nodded firmly, looking at Lu Tianxing, who had been keeping quiet like an ostrich, and said, "Lu Tianxing, that’s the reasoning, right?"
Lu Tianxing was momentarily stunned by Bai Zhiqing’s words, then chuckled bitterly and replied, "Wife, this kind of thing isn’t easy to say. Who knows if the heavens have opened their eyes or not, but anyhow, as the saying goes, life is like being fucked—if you can’t fight back, you might as well lie down and enjoy it... ahem, Miss Mu, don’t take offense. Though the saying is a bit crude, that’s really how life works."
"Lu Tianxing, what do you mean by that? That’s no way to comfort someone."
Bai Zhiqing looked at Lu Tianxing unfavorably. This idiot, didn’t he know how to comfort people at all? No wonder he had been single for so long; probably because he was too mouthy. This wasn’t comforting at all; it was like feeding her poison instead of chicken soup.
"No particular meaning, just sharing some life philosophies with Miss Mu. Fairy tales are always fairy tales, and chicken soup will never become reality. It’s better to be clear about the reality and then continue on your own path."
Bai Zhiqing glared at Lu Tianxing, ready to retort, but Mu Qingxue spoke first, "Yes, Mr. Lu, you’re right. Reality isn’t a fairy tale, and we can’t apply fairy tale logic to it. But there’s another saying that goes, ’Happiness is something you fight for.’ If you don’t even have the courage to fight for happiness, you will never be happy in your life. No matter how it turns out in the future, at least I will have tried. Isn’t that so, Mr. Lu? You have to fight to win; if you don’t, how will you know you’ll lose?"
Lu Tianxing smiled wryly upon hearing Mu Qingxue’s words. Although it seemed like she was rebutting what he just said, she was also telling him that she wouldn’t give up so easily; she was determined to fight for it.
Bai Zhiqing looked at Mu Qingxue with a bit of surprise, not expecting her to rebut Lu Tianxing in such a way.
Without paying attention to the turmoil in Lu Tianxing’s mind, Mu Qingxue’s face revealed a smile, and said, "Zhiqing, I want to take a tour inside your company to see how white-collar workers do their jobs. That way, if I ever get to act in a modern urban drama, I’ll know how to play the role of a modern urban white-collar worker. Can I?"
"Of course, no problem."
Bai Zhiqing nodded with a smile, but then her face showed a trace of difficulty and she apologized, "I’m sorry, Qingxue, I still have a document to deal with, so I’m afraid I can’t accompany you for the visit. But it’s okay. Lu Tianxing isn’t busy right now; I’ll let him accompany you around the company. He’s an old employee, just let him know where you want to go."
Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing’s face dripped with cold sweat. This girl, did she really not know, or was she pretending not to know? Having him accompany Mu Qingxue, wasn’t that like sending a lamb to a tiger’s den? Was she really taking him for a saint? If Mu Qingxue wanted to... reverse the roles... should he agree right away, or should he struggle a bit first?
"Wife, I have something to take care of..."
Lu Tianxing’s words were cut off by Bai Zhiqing, who said, "What could you possibly have to do? Playing games counts as being busy? You don’t know how many men wish for the chance to accompany Qingxue and don’t get it, so get up right now and show her around the company."
"Alright!"
Seeing Bai Zhiqing’s expression, Lu Tianxing could only laugh helplessly, nodding and agreeing to it.
"Thank you, Zhiqing. I’ll go visit Bai’s Group first, then come back later to talk to you about how to manage a company."
Mu Qingxue’s face showed a look of surprise as she stood up eagerly and headed for the door.
Lu Tianxing stood up and followed behind Mu Qingxue, ready to leave Bai Shan.
"Wait a minute."
After Mu Qingxue had left the office, Bai Zhiqing’s eyes flashed, and she stopped Lu Tianxing with a warning, "Lu Tianxing, you better behave yourself, understand? If you dare to spout nonsense like before, watch out, I won’t be polite. And don’t even think about getting touchy, or you might just lose your colorsome paws to someone’s knife."
Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s threatening words, Lu Tianxing could only smile wryly and shake his head. He didn’t want to do anything to Mu Qingxue; the key was that he feared what Mu Qingxue might do to him. What would he do then?
