<strong>Capítulo 1215: Chapter 1208: If the Light Dies, I Die</strong>


    “Of course I’m back. Secretary Lan, did you miss me? I missed you a lot. How about giving me a passionate kiss after such a long separation?”


    Lu Tianxing flirted shamelessly with Lan Xin, his eyes wandering over her. He suddenly noticed that it seemed like Lan Xin’s chest was a bit bigger than before, and she wasn’t using padding.


    This girl wouldn’t be doing it herself at home every day, would she?


    Lu Tianxing touched his chin, maliciously specting in his heart.


    “Miss you, my foot! I’d rather miss a pig than miss you.”


    Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Lan Xin rolled her eyes. Indeed, this bastard was still as annoying as ever.


    Lu Tianxing’s face fell, and he looked at Lan Xin with a pitiful expression, saying, “Secretary Lan, your words are too hurtful. We’re colleagues, and I was once your boyfriend. How can you be so heartless? I…”


    “You…you shut up.”


    Lan Xin interrupted Lu Tianxing before he could finish, with a face full of frustration, “How dare you bring this up? Do you know my mom has been pushing me to go on blind dates because of you? It’s all your fault. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be getting scolded by my mom. Lu Tianxing, I’m telling you, if you bring this up again, I’ll drag you down with me.”


    “Secretary Lan, can you have some decency? You were the one crying and begging for me to be your boyfriend back then. You’ve turned your back on me faster than flipping a page. Besides, I was saving your face, or else you might have married that guy who thinks money can buy love. Maybe you’d be a resentful wife now, suffering from your mother-inw’s torment,” Lu Tianxing said, looking displeased at Lan Xin.


    “In any case, this is all your fault.”


    Lan Xin gave Lu Tianxing a sidelong nce, her big, dark eyes scanning him as if he were some rare animal.


    Lu Tianxing was startled by Lan Xin’s gaze, instinctively stepping back a few steps, saying warily, “Secretary Lan, don’t even think about targeting me again. I’m telling you, I’d rather die than be your boyfriend again. Go find someone else!”


    “Tsk, who wants you to be their boyfriend? With your looks, you could be found on the street for five hundred bucks. Only Mr. Bai would be blind enough to hire someone as unremarkable as you.”


    Lan Xin looked at Lu Tianxing with disdain, then curiously asked, “Lu Tianxing, I heard you’ve been making waves in Jiangnantely and have be the third young master of the Lu Family?”<fn1769> Discover more novels at F?nd-Novel</fn1769>


    “You know about this?”


    “Of course, I do. Don’t forget what my dad does. Is it strange for me to know such things?”


    Lan Xin nced at Lu Tianxing, sizing him up, “It’s surprising that you’re from the Lu Family. I can’t imagine how the Lu Family could have a young master like you. I suddenly feel relieved for the beauties in Jiangnan that you weren’t a young master before marriage.”


    “What do you mean by that?”


    “I mean I’m d those women didn’t suffer under your harassment. Think about it, you were already a big lecher when you had no power or influence, flirting everywhere. If you had been a Lu Family young master then, you’d have gone overboard, maybe even drugged someone, harming a lot of girls. With your family background, covering it up would be easy. Luckily, Mr. Bai keeps you in line now, or you’d be causing a ruckus, even nning a grand ‘Tianxing Feast.’


    Lu Tianxing looked at Lan Xin with a nk expression, thinking, “Does she think I’m Sun Monkey or something?”


    “Secretary Lan, I haven’t offended you these days, have I? How am I a lecher? How did I harass you? This is purely nder. I’m going to sue you for defamation.”


    “Hmph, I don’t need to exin to you. You’re aplete lecher. Also, get as far away as you can and stop interrupting my work. Not everyone can be as idle as you, marrying a rich woman.”


    Lan Xin rolled her eyes and ignored Lu Tianxing, going back to herputer work.


    Lu Tianxing looked at Lan Xin, his gaze lingering on her impressive figure. She was getting bolder. It seemed necessary to find a time to teach this girl a lesson, or else she’d keep showing him attitude.


    After ncing at Lan Xin, Lu Tianxing didn’t stay and directly turned to walk to the office. As he opened the door and stepped inside, he heard Bai Zhiqing’s somewhat cold voice.


    “Had enough fun with your Lin Aifei?”


    “No…”


    Lu Tianxing was about to deny it when he realized and quickly changed his tune, “Wife, there’s nothing scandalous. I just went to see an old friend and picked up something.”


    “Really? Picking up something? I didn’t know you had things at someone else’s ce.”


    Bai Zhiqing twirled a pen in her hand, her eyes fixed on Lu Tianxing, trying to discern the truth from him.


    Feeling the hint of murderous intent in Bai Zhiqing’s eyes, Lu Tianxing hurriedly said, “Wife, I swear on a light bulb, I definitely went to pick something up. If not, let the light go out with me.”


    “Click!”


    In the next moment, the office lights, which were just on, suddenly went out, leaving Lu Tianxing stunned. “Damn, could it be this urate?”


    Was Heaven nning to use Bai Zhiqing’s hand to get rid of him because he wasn’t pleasing to the eye?


    Lu Tianxing didn’t notice that Bai Zhiqing’s hand, hidden behind the folder, had somehow acquired a remote control. Just as he swore, Bai Zhiqing had quietly pressed the button, turning off the decorative lights.


    “Lu Tianxing, how are you going to exin this?” Bai Zhiqing looked at Lu Tianxing with a mockingly sarcastic expression, her tone full of yful teasing.


    Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing rubbed his nose, embarrassedly saying, “Wife, it’s a misunderstanding. It must be a power outage, a coincidence, yes, a coincidence.”


    “Oh? A power outage?”


    Bai Zhiqing’s yful sarcasm grew even more pronounced as she pressed the remote again, and the lights that had gone out came back on, “Lu Tianxing, do you still think it was a power outage?”


    Darn!


    Lu Tianxing felt a wave of ck lines over his face. Suddenly, he realized today was undoubtedly his unlucky day. He had just intended to get some satisfying interactions with Lin Qianru, but Bai Zhiqing interrupted him, leaving him with unresolved tension. Now, even the light was against him. Could his luck get any worse?


    But in the next moment, Lu Tianxing raised his head suspiciously at Bai Zhiqing, flicked his finger, and a wisp of True Qi swept the folder covering Bai Zhiqing’s delicate hand aside, revealing the remote she held in her palm.
