831 How Cheap Is Your Life? (I)

Tang Jue actually woke up.

He obviously didn't wake up completely. He stood upstairs holding the white jade railing and looked down at her, with a natural charm in his eyes, "Did you sleep well last night?"

Qi Qi really couldn't chat with him calmly like him.

He just stood there with his head down. That casual fascination and temptation was probably the style that countless women were crazy about.

She was getting more and more afraid to get along with him.

She couldn't refuse any of the two kisses last night. That was a sign of losing control of the body, which made her panic.

She looked away, pursed her lips, and whispered: "I don't want to live here."

"Don't like it here? It's okay if you don't like it. I'll take you to see another house in two days. If you don't like it, we'll change. Or, if you like a property, just tell Jian Qing directly, and Jian Qing will solve it."

"..."Qi Qi didn't know what to say. Tang Jue was so smart, how could he not hear the meaning of her words? It was obvious that he was just misinterpreting her words.

She decided not to say anything more and just said, "I'm going to work now."

"Have breakfast."

"Or not..."

"Qiqi." Tang Jue's two words have a kind of irresistible deterrent power.

She is a little confused now, because of their current mess. She doesn't want to provoke Tang Jue, she just wants to live a peaceful life. Even more, she doesn't want to take out the heavy hatred in her heart again and put it in front of each other.

A few years before her father's death, she hated Tang Jue to the bone, and almost every day she thought about how to kill him and how to get revenge. At that time, she was shrouded in hatred, as if the world was only dark and ugly. It's terrible to hate a person's life. She lived like a rat in a stinky sewer, dark, depressed, and she was no longer like herself. She forgot the sunshine, ignored the beauty, lost her dreams, and lived like a walking corpse...

Until later, she became blind and met a man who made her suddenly enlightened in the hospital. She let go of or buried the hatred. Later, after she regained her sight, the man disappeared, as if she had just had a beautiful dream. Then, she spent some time to let go of that man.

She learned to start a new life abroad. Let herself return to her original heart and let the sunshine penetrate her life again.

She didn't want to live a life shrouded in hatred anymore.

Those dark days were very painful every day, so now she had to stay as far away from him as possible...

She couldn't be bewitched by him.

After thinking it over, she followed the housekeeper into the restaurant.

It was her first time to eat at the Tang family. The breakfast served by the servants made her stunned.

Fried eggs, seven-tenths cooked, not a cent more or less. Sugar was placed beside the light white porridge instead of salt. The coffee was also ready, and two and a half sugar cubes were placed on the delicate plate.

Everything was her old habit.

There was no deviation at all.

She didn't think it was a coincidence in the kitchen. So, was it Tang Jue's explanation?

But this man... really appeared in her world for less than half a month. In fact, in this half month, they only met three or four times. How did he know about her private preferences that couldn't be more private?

Qiqi was getting more and more confused about Tang Jue's thoughts. If he was just playing around, he would be too thoughtful. Or... has he always been like this? Is he like this for every toy he wants to play with?

——————

After breakfast, Qiqi returned to the magazine.

She was a little dazed all day. She searched the Internet for Tang Jue's information, but he was a very mysterious person. After searching for a long time, she didn't find any information worth reading. It was nothing more than some gossip about him, but those news were not even sure whether they were true or false.

"Qiqi, are you checking Tang Jue?"

Behind her, Ruan Mengmeng's voice came, Qiqi felt guilty for a moment and wanted to close his webpage.

"What are you closing? I saw it all."

Qiqi had to stop.

"Do you really think that knowing yourself and the enemy can win every battle?" Ruan Mengmeng pulled a chair over and sat next to her.

Qiqi knew that she thought she was worried about the lawsuit, so she didn't explain and just asked: "Mengmeng, don't you like these gossips? Are the rumors about Tang Jue in the news true?"

"Who can know this? You also know that the young master of the Tang Clan is very mysterious. But..." Mengmeng said: "I know that he and the Jade Lady Sect Leader Wen Xin were really in love for a while. This was revealed by Wen Xin herself when I interviewed her last time. It's a pity that I didn't dare to publish the article about the young master of the Tang Clan. Otherwise, it would be another explosive news."

Qiqi has also seen Wen Xin. She has shot a cover for her before. She is a very pure-looking star. Recently, her career is booming and she can often be seen in movies.

"Then - did she talk about other things about her and Tang Jue, such as how Tang Jue treated her?"

"According to her, Tang Jue has always been very generous to women. Moreover, a man like him, if you think about it, you will know how to manipulate a woman's heart. Wen Xin said that he is very considerate, will remember all her preferences, and is also romantic and will give her surprises..."

Qi Qi listened and nodded silently.

It turned out that this was his usual method.

It was not just for her.

So, he wasn't serious - no, it was serious, but he was just using his usual tricks to seriously subdue his new prey. Those so-called lifetime talks were probably just something Tang Jue said to coax her!

Qiqi felt relieved. That way, at least she still had a chance to escape. As long as she didn't respond and didn't provoke him, he would naturally lose interest in her in a few days.

Since she couldn't take revenge, it would be better... to make the two worlds as far apart as possible, without even a little intersection.

"But why are you asking these questions? Qiqi, is this related to your case?"

"... Well, it's a little related." Qiqi replied vaguely.

"By the way, you haven't told me what happened when you went to see him yesterday."

The result...

Qiqi shook her head, "It was terrible."

However, Tang Jue should keep his promise and withdraw the lawsuit. She could see that he didn't really mean to embarrass her. I think the reason why he sued me this time was just to give her and the entire entertainment media a warning to be more cautious in dealing with Tang Sect. Now that the warning has worked, I think he won't continue.

"Oh, by the way, I remember I have some gossip about the young master of Tang Sect. I also heard it from Wen Xin. But I think it's fake."

"What gossip?"

"I heard that he almost wanted to donate his cornea to a girl before, and the operation was already arranged. But I heard that the girl got a donation from someone else, so he was saved from blindness."
