Chapter 976: Chapter 976
“I want to take a look at this watch,” Qianqian requested .
“Okay . ” The salesperson unlocked the display case as he tried to contain his excitement .
But Lu Yan suddenly spoke up . “There’s no need . ”
Lu Yan rejected her .
Qianqian was stunned . “Da Shan, don’t you like this watch?”
“I don’t like it . ”
After saying that, Lu Yan turned around and left .
…
Lu Yan went outside the mall, slumping against the car while he waited outside .
Delia walked over, patting his shoulder . “Why did you reject Qianqian when she wanted to buy you a watch? As long as you are full, who cares if you’re depending on a woman?”
Lu Yan revealed a wry smile . “I’d rather stay hungry than depend on a woman . ”
“You have a backbone! I like it . ” Delia complimented him before taking out two stacks of notes . “This is your salary for the month . Take it . ”
Lu Yan counted out forty from the stack of cash . There was some extra in the stack and he returned it to Delia . “4000 dollars, that’s all I’ll take . ”
He didn’t want to take the extra money .
Delia raised his brows, taking the notes back . “What are you going to buy with your first paycheck?”
“I’m not sure yet . ”
Lu Yan really had no idea . He used to be the overlord of the Capital and was so wealthy, he didn’t even have to bring cash out with him .
He had spent the past three years in the mountains with the children, though he wasn’t that well off, he could survive since he was living alone . As time passed, he didn’t even know where and how to spend his money .
It was really his first time receiving a paycheck .
“If you have a woman you fancy, go buy her some jewelry and accessories . All women love it . ” Delia gave him an idea .
Really?
The corners of his lips kicked up with an inexplicable gentleness .
…
In the mall .
The salesperson was having a conversation with his colleague . “I just had a poor customer, a beauty wanted to gift him with a limited edition watch and he pretended he didn’t want it . What a poser . ”
Right after he said that, he heard some sounds . Knock knock .
The salesperson turned behind to look . Lu Yan had returned with one hand in his pocket, the other was knocking on the display glass . He lifted his eyes, giving the salesperson an impassive glance with those deep-set eyes .
The salesperson’s face blanched, that one glance almost made his hair stand on end .
“Mi-Mister, what are you looking for?” the salesperson stammered .
Lu Yan averted his eyes, his gaze landing attracted by a certain lipstick .
It was a bright red color that stood out .
“How much is this?” he asked .
“Mister, this lipstick’s case is made of 18K pure gold, with the lipstick being handmade . The retail price is 3999 . ”
He had just received his paycheck of 4000 dollars .
“Okay, I’ll get this . Wrap it up for me . ”
“Yes, Mister . ”
…
In the luxury car, Lu Yan drove the car while Delia had some stuff to handle and had left first . There was only An’an and Qianqian left in the car with him .
An’an sat in the back seat while Qianqian sat in the passenger’s seat .
“Da Shan, my brother told me you just received your paycheck of 4000 dollars . Why don’t you treat me to supper?”
Lu Yan had both hands on the steering wheel, he didn’t even look at Qianqian while he replied, “I only have a dollar left in my pocket . ”
“How is that possible? I don’t believe you . ” Qianqian thought that he was just making excuses .
Lu Yan wasn’t lying at all . He had just spent 3999 dollars and was only left with a dollar in his pocket .
“Da Shan, what’s that thing around your neck? It’s so sparkly . ” Qianqian had noticed the string around his neck with a sparkling diamond ring hanging on it .
Qianqian instantly stretched her hand out, wanting to touch the string around his neck .
Once An’an saw her doing that, her hands were balled into two fists .
No one else should touch the diamond ring .
She didn’t want Qianqian to touch his diamond ring .
Lu Yan stretched his arm out, blocking Qianqian away and she didn’t manage to touch it . “Sit still, don’t distract me while I’m driving . ”
Qianqian was displeased . She sat properly in the passenger seat and said, “Da Shan, take Miss Gu home first, then you can take me back to my hotel room . ”
She emphasized the word ‘hotel room’, making it sound scandalous .
“Miss Qianqian, maybe he should send you back to your hotel first,” An’an said .
The car was completely silent but the tension between the two women grew .
“Da Shan, who are you going to send home first?”
Lu Yan lifted his eyes, looking at An’an through the rearview mirror . An’an was looking at him too, her lustrous eyes watery .
He averted his eyes before saying, “Let’s take Miss Gu home first . ”
Qianqian was delighted once she heard that .
An’an’s face blanched . Lowering her head disappointedly, she clenched her fists tightly .
…
The car parked downstairs of the apartment and An’an didn’t even lift her head, she just opened the door and took her purse with her to leave .
Lu Yan watched as she disappeared before he stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away .
“Blood Eagle, what’s your relationship with that Gu An’an?”
Qianqian tore away her latex mask, revealing a charming face under the mask .
Lu Yan held onto the steering wheel, replying, “My woman . ”
“What?” Qianqian’s face changed, but she quickly regained her composure . “Blood Eagle, I’m going to give you some time to break up with Gu An’an as soon as possible . My father is going to step down soon . As long as you marry me, you’ll be the next General . ”
Lu Yan had a poker face on, he didn’t speak .
“Blood Eagle, your family background is tainted . Your father is a thief, no matter your achievements in the army, no matter how legendary you are, you can never wear your uniform . The only way for you to become a soldier is for you to marry me . Only after you marry me, can you come out from the darkness . Being a General, such a high position you can only achieve in the armed forces . Do you even know how many people can only yearn for this position?”
Lu Yan revealed a wry smile . “That’s enough, stop trying to brainwash me . A thief’s son is not compatible with the General’s daughter . I can’t eat this bowl of soft rice[1] .
“…”
Soft rice?
He knew that she wasn’t intending for him to eat soft rice . So many eminent youths had wooed her but she only had eyes for him . But he hadn’t reciprocated at all, treating her coldly, and not even sparing her a single glance .
She had put away her dignity and tried to please him .
“Blood Eagle, which part of me are you not pleased with? Tell me, I can change it . ” Qianqian’s voice softened as she pleaded .
Lu Yan didn’t have any expression on his face . “You may be great, but what does that have to do with me?”
…
In the apartment .
An’an took a hot shower and her mind was filled with scenes of Lu Yan and Qianqian together . She was so pissed off she didn’t even eat dinner .
A melodious ringtone sounded, she had an incoming phone call .
It was Lu Yan .
She looked at her phone, wanting to pick up the call but after a moment, she threw the phone on the sofa .
She wasn’t going to pick up .
Ding! She received a text message—-I’m outside your apartment, open the door .
