章 999: Husband?

Lu Tingxiao stared at her with a darkened expression. "What do other people's lives have to do with you?"

Ning Xi cleared her throat. "Hey, that's your cousin! It's not very nice for you to say that."

"Even if it was me, I don't allow to do such things!"

"That's nothing...I've dabbled in way more dangerous things than this back then. What happened today was a totally small case. I wouldn't do things I'm unsure of..."

She had explained till her mouth went dry, yet Lu Tingxiao remained stiff as a rod. Ning Xi could not help but cry on the inside. She had gotten the upper hand and made Lu Xinyan apologize, but now it was her turn to be in the pits.

Ning Xi persisted in rubbing her hand against the man's chest and said, "Don't be angry, okay? Next time, I'll really be good and stay beside you. I won't just run off!"

Lu Tingxiao indicated that he did not trust her at all.
