Lu Lingche couldn’t help but frown, “Mrs. Lan isn’t there taking care of you?”
“No, my dad had a stomachache today, so mum had to go home to take care of him.”
Just as she was saying that, a sudden thunder crackle outside made Lan Yuyi scream in fear.
Fearing she might be in danger, Lu Lingche quickly announced, “I’m coming right away.”
Half an hour later, he arrived at the living room of his elder brother’s villa.
Lan Yuyi used to live here with his elder brother. Even after his death, Lan Yuyi didn’t leave.
Madam Lu had seen her fondness for this place, so she transferred the entire villa, truly worth two hundred million, to Lan Yuyi’s name a couple of days ago. It became her personal property.
Seeing him, Lan Yuyi ran over and threw herself at him, sobbing, “Why did you only come now? I was so scared. The thunder was so loud, I felt like I was going to be struck down.”
Lu Lingche felt like every cell in his body was screaming to push her on the ground!
Yet the remnants of his sanity told him she was pregnant. He couldn’t do such a thing. Otherwise, it would be a double tragedy. His elder brother would never forgive him.
Perhaps his rejection was too obvious, Lan Yuyi awkwardly let him go.
Looking up at him, she found Lu Lingche’s face was chillingly cold.
She wrapped herself with her arms shivering, “Lingche, I’m so cold.”
Lu Lingche remained unmoved, standing as if he hadn’t heard her.
Lan Yuyi grabbed his hand, “Try it, my hands are freezing.”
Lu Lingche took a step back to avoid her hand.
He went to the sofa, took a blanket, and draped it over her, “You’re not wearing enough. Make sure to wear more next time.”
Lan Yuyi was only wearing a thin dress. It was loose around her waist to hide her belly, but its plunging neckline was utterly seductive, revealing a great deal of skin.
Yet, Lu Lingche was like a blind man, his gaze showing no sign of lingering.
Frustrated, Lan Yuyi wrapped herself tightly in the blanket and changed the subject.
“Lingche, have you talked to Miss Qiao? Has she agreed to transfer the secret formula to me?”
Only then did Lu Lingche remember. He had been occupied with arguing with Qiao Yin all day that he forgot about the secret formula.
He couldn’t be blamed, though. Qiao Yin’s words were harsh, and he didn’t want to waste any more words with her.
“She refused to transfer it. You can buy someone else’s. Don’t fall for her tricks. Her formula can’t be that good.”
However, Lan Yuyi shook her head, her voice pleading, “No, I want her formula. I’ve set my mind on it. I don’t want any others. Lingche, please go and negotiate with her again for me!”
For some reason, Lu Lingche’s mind begins to replay Qiao Yin’s words from earlier in the day.
“Does she love to steal my things so much?”
He glanced at Lan Yuyi, and asked in a flat voice, “Do you like the formula, or do you like Qiao Yin’s formula?”
Lan Yuyi appeared perplexed, her voice full of innocence, “What’s the difference? I don’t mean anything else, Lingche. Actually, I’m trying to help Miss Qiao. Seems like her family owes a lot of money outside.”
Of course, she wanted to snatch away Qiao Yin’s belongings, and also involve Lu Lingche in it.
This way, Qiao Yin would give up and quickly divorce Lu Lingche.
Her belly was growing bigger day by day; no one could imagine her internal panic. If they didn’t divorce soon, she wouldn’t be able to hide her pregnancy!
But when Lu Lingche remembered Qiao Yin’s words about how he was treated like a toy by someone else, he became icy cold, “She’s not a good person. You don’t have to be kind to her. Buy from anyone else but not from her. It’s better to pity a dog than to pity her.”
“It’s fine. I also don’t lack money. Consider it a charitable act. Besides, even if I don’t buy her formula, someone else will. She’s going to sell it anyway. It’s better if she sells it to me. I’ll give her a good price.”
Lu Lingche’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, “Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to warn her. I’ll make sure no one dares to buy it. Let her secret formula rot with her..”
