I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

Chapter 699: Chapter 699: Coordination

"Don’t worry, I’m not as fragile as you imagine. Isn’t it just a minor issue? I didn’t take it to heart, and you don’t need to be like this, making it seem as if everyone is picking on you. Don’t forget who handled this matter.

You still look like this, making it seem as if you were the one who caused the problem while I just stood by and watched the drama unfold, feeling sorry for you. Ok, I got it; I won’t take such risks again, alright?"

Lin Qi said with a smile, not expecting Shen Dong to react this way. At this moment, Shen Dong remembered that he couldn’t stay in the bar any longer since the issue had been resolved. He needed to hurry home because someone sick was waiting for him, and had just sent a message saying they had a stomach ache.

If he delayed any further, he didn’t know how his girlfriend would be. As for the immediate tasks at hand, they would have to wait. After checking the time on his phone, he avoided the topic Lin Qi had brought up and continued, "You really handled this matter quite well. Think about what you want.

I’ll fulfill this wish for you later. I need to go home now, so you should head back to your dormitory. Keep this knife with you, and one day I’ll craft a new one for you, something better suited for self-defense. Go back to your dorm and rest; don’t tire yourself out. You really had a tough day today.

Also, stop worrying about the money—you’ll pay back what you owe me soon, alright? Look at how much you earned tonight, all those tips from those rich kids, it was wave after wave. I was truly shocked; I never expected you to have such great ability. This was indeed beyond my expectations."

As Shen Dong spoke with a teasing tone, Lin Qi finally felt reassured and playfully groaned, then said, "I know my earning capability has always been strong. I just didn’t want to earn money before. Those people really thought I was incapable of making money, but they didn’t know that I was just hiding it.

If I wanted to make money, I could make a lot in a minute, just like now. When I start making even more money for you later, then you’ll truly understand my worth. I’ll prove that your decision to invest so much in me was the right one. Go ahead with your work; don’t worry about me."

After saying this, Lin Qi turned her head and left. She didn’t want to make Shen Dong uncomfortable or have him escort her home. She could naturally get back to her dormitory with her own legs. However, returning to the dormitory might be a bit troublesome since everyone there probably had heard about the incident and might cluster around asking questions.

Girls are indeed great, but there’s one downside: their curiosity is just too strong. Like now, everyone would be really curious about what exactly happened at the scene, many of whom didn’t attend, so they would have to rely on the scant information from their phones to find out what went on.

What happened afterward, being the involved party, she would definitely be thoroughly questioned when she got back, leaving no time for rest. Thinking this, she quickened her pace as Shen Dong watched her leave with a sigh.

He realized he had discovered a real treasure. He hadn’t realized before that this woman had so many capabilities. Now it seemed that his intuition was sometimes really accurate. At that time, his gut had told him that this woman would be tremendously useful and must be signed at any cost. Therefore, after he had left, he turned back to get a card for her, otherwise, they might still not have reconnected by now. Lin Qi might have been driven by financial need to somewhere else.

Their lives would probably have no intersection at all, and such a situation might never have occurred. Now the bar might become a target for criminals. So, it was as if fate had destined it all; sometimes, you simply have to follow your instincts—whatever they suggest.

Well, now it’s time to check on his girlfriend. He turned on his phone to see if his girlfriend had messaged him. There were just a few more messages asking when he would be back and if everything was alright; it seemed like that was the situation. Thinking of her waiting, he immediately headed home.

It’s better to explain things in person than over the phone as it gets too complicated. Thinking this, he put away his phone and drove toward home.

Unfortunately, neither of them had received the latest updates, so they were very anxious and scared something had happened at the bar, particularly Kang Le, who was visibly in a state of panic.

Tang Yuchan checked the messages and finally found a detailed account. She hurriedly showed it to Kang Yue, relieved to confirm it was good news. "Don’t worry, don’t worry, your boyfriend is fine, and so is the bar. This woman really took charge and caught the criminal herself. He was quite audacious to even attempt that."

Reassuring her, after saying this, Kang Yue finally calmed down. After taking her phone, she wondered why the woman in the messages looked so familiar. Delighted, she mused how well they teamed up, and on closer inspection, she realized it was indeed that woman, who had now apparently started working at the bar.

"This woman is indeed impressive, able to react so promptly during such a critical moment. If it were me there, I doubt I would have responded as quickly. This woman really has some skills. I don’t know where Shen Dong found her, but well done; he has good judgment," Tang Yuchan commented, unaware that Kang Yue’s face was growing increasingly grim. If she had seen her expression, she probably would have immediately stopped talking. Such topics aren’t for everyone, but unfortunately, she hadn’t noticed it yet.
