Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Brother-in-law Teaches You a Lesson, You Don't Have Any Objections, Right?
Qin Youling's beautiful eyes widened, her chest heaving rapidly, clearly not expecting Qin Kai to have burned the marriage certificate.
In the crowd, Qin Shengbin's face showed a pleased smile.
Though impulsive, Kai was at least bold and decisive.
Among the younger generation of the Qin Family, he was definitely among the best.
The old man keeps thinking about handing over the Qin Family to Youling, when it would be better to leave it to me, and I can pass it on to my son later...
Lu Xiao had also snapped back to reality, genuinely dumbfounded by Qin Kai's move.
Burning the marriage certificate...
What was he trying to achieve?
And besides, even if you're going to burn it, aren't there two copies of the marriage certificate? Wouldn't it be better to gather them both before burning?
"So, without your marriage certificate, won't it be difficult to get a divorce in the future?" Lu Xiao poked Qin Youling's arm and asked.
We had agreed, once you take control of the Qin Family, we'd get divorced.
Now that the marriage certificate is gone, you're not planning on going back on your word, are you?
Qin Youling was on the verge of exploding. Was this the point? Lu Xiao, are you an idiot?
Qin Kai did this to drive you out of the Qin Family Old Mansion. Once outside, they have a hundred ways to kill you.
"I almost forgot about you. You've got another fake marriage certificate, right? Take it out and I'll help you light it up."
Seeing Qin Kai's renewed arrogance, Lu Xiao couldn't help but wonder if the guy had the memory of a goldfish.
You just took a big hit from me outside, and your face is still swollen. How can you not learn your lesson at all?
Seeing that Lu Xiao remained silent, Qin Kai was even more energized.
"Lu Xiao, how much money did my cousin give you for the sham marriage?"
"Tell you what, I'll transfer one million to you, and you leave the old mansion."
"I can assure you that I won't bother you ever again."
With that, Qin Kai took out his phone, opened the payment app.
Lu Xiao had mentioned earlier that he had just returned from the military.
An ex-soldier without money or power should be easily tempted by a million.
Once Lu Xiao takes the money and leaves, Qin Youling will probably become the laughingstock of all Hai City.
"One million isn't enough," Lu Xiao shrugged casually.
Is that all the money you're throwing around? Your cousin was more generous, promising a hundred million after the job.
Qin Kai was slightly startled, but then smiled again, since Lu Xiao said it wasn't enough, that meant there was room for negotiation.
"I'll add another two million for you."
"Still not enough!"
"Lu Xiao, don't push your luck!"
Lu Xiao curled his lip. How come it's me who's being greedy? Aren't you the one causing all the trouble here?
"A flat rate, five million. If that works for you, transfer the money now!" Qin Kai growled through clenched teeth.
Five million was all he had.
But, Qin Kai wasn't troubled, the money was just going to sit with Lu Xiao for a while.
Once this guy leaves the old mansion, whether it's money or lost face, he would get it all back! Get it back tenfold, a hundredfold!
"Well, okay then," Lu Xiao nodded. Seeing such sincerity in offering money, it would be impolite to refuse further.
"Good! Show me your payment code," Qin Kai was somewhat impatient, fearing Lu Xiao would change his mind.
Qin Youling did not stop him, but stared icily at Lu Xiao.
Five million bought you out?
So greedy and stupid.
Do you really think taking Qin Kai's money and leaving means everything is settled? Do you truly believe Qin Kai won't give you trouble later?
"The money has been transferred," Qin Kai announced a few seconds later, after completing the transaction.
Lu Xiao glanced at his balance. The string of digits from his master was so long, the extra five million seemed almost insignificant.
"Now, you can get lost," Qin Kai directed, pointing towards the gate, his face swelling with smugness.
The members of the Qin Family turned their gazes to Qin Youling, their eyes filled with mockery.
You couldn't even choose a decent fake, selling you out for just five million.
Qin Youling felt angry inside, and a bit disappointed too.
Despite the brief time with Lu Xiao, her impression of him wasn't all that bad; she had thought he was reliable. Seems she thought too highly of him.
Announcing a compensation of a hundred million for a fake marriage, yet also taking Qin Kai's five million.
Scumbag! Pah!
As for Lu Xiao, he put his phone back in his pocket, then sweetly smiled at Qin Kai to express his gratitude.
"Sure, I'll leave in a few days," Lu Xiao said.
Qin Kai was taken aback, his mind struggling to process.
Leaving in a few days?
What kind of nonsense are you talking about? By then the old man will have woken up.
Once he wakes and finds out you've registered the marriage with Qin Youling, he will likely hand over the entire Qin Family to her in a matter of minutes.
"Don't look at me like that. You only said to give me the money to get lost, you never specified when I should leave, right?" Lu Xiao shrugged, adding a comment.
It was that statement that sent Qin Kai into a complete fury.
Even if he was brain-dead, he could now see that Lu Xiao had been playing him all along!
"Motherfucker!" Qin Kai lunged at Lu Xiao, swinging a full-blown punch towards his head.
"Be careful!" Behind Lu Xiao, Qin Youling cried out in alarm.
In Lu Xiao's eyes, Qin Kai's movements were slow and feeble.
Not until the fist was almost upon him did Lu Xiao nonchalantly reach out to swat it away, followed by casually slapping Qin Kai across the face in return.
The sound of a crisp slap resonated.
At the gate, Lu Xiao had slapped Qin Kai's right cheek, this time it was the left.
As a result, despite Qin Kai's face swelling up like a pig's head, it was oddly symmetrical.
"You won't mind a lesson from your brother-in-law, will you?" Lu Xiao asked another question.
A heart-piercing blow.
Qin Kai's breath became rapidly erratic, his lifetime of pampering and arrogance completely unleashed.
"What are you idiots standing around for, get him!"
"Does the Qin family pay you to watch your master get beaten?"
"Kill Lu Xiao! Now, right now, immediately!"
Qin Kai roared at the surrounding bodyguards, his ferocious expression even frightened some of the children present into tears.
