Chapter 0007: The Big Bun Offers Itself

My brother means to thank you for saving Xiaobao and is asking you to make a request! Lu Jingli had an expression as if you had struck it rich.

"Brother, don't make such a scary expression. Those who know will think you are here to repay a favor, while those who don't will assume you are seeking revenge!" Lu Jingli, unable to bear seeing the beauty frightened, couldn't help but intervene, and then said to Ning Xi, "My brother doesn't like to owe favors to others, so you might as well make a request! Don't be shy!"

Did she say anything wrong? What does such a terrible expression mean?

Ning Xi's lips twitched slightly, "It's not that I'm being polite; it's just that it's truly unnecessary. What I say is all the truth. If you don't believe me, you can check..."

In the end, Ning Xi had no choice but to brace herself and speak under Lu Tingxiao's increasingly pressing gaze, "Otherwise... will you give me money?"

"No need." Lu Tingxiao spoke concisely, his expression showing a hint of impatience

Although she was incredibly lucky this time to save the young prince, she dared not take credit for it. The wealthier one is, the more severe the paranoia of being harmed becomes, especially for a top-tier family like the Lu family. It would be surprising if they did not suspect her of having ulterior motives. Did you not see how Lu Tingxiao had been looking at her with a suspicious gaze just now

Ning Xi was stunned for a second, then began to cough violently, nearly choking on her own saliva. "Cough cough cough... What did you say?"

Lu Tingxiao scrutinized the woman on the hospital bed, seemingly assessing whether the unexpected expression on her face was genuine or not

Don't wealthy individuals all prefer this straightforward and direct way of reciprocation

Second Young Master

After a while, it seemed that she finally believed that she had no prior knowledge of Xiaobao's identity, and thus spoke coldly, "Your request"

Hearing this, Ning Xi's mind raced, and she cautiously replied, "Actually, you don't need to thank me. While it is true that I saved Xiao Bao, he also saved me. If Xiao Bao hadn't gone out to call for help first, I would definitely still be locked inside right now, so we are even."

Lu Tingxiao nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "It can be said that way"

Alright, we have gone in circles again

Ning Xi was on the verge of tears, wondering why one had to be so reticent with words. Can we not express ourselves properly? Is it really so exhausting to say a few words?

At this moment, Ning Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and trembled as she said, "Is it because I saved your son that you have decided to pledge yourself to me?"

However, this time not only Ning Xi, but also Lu Jingli was bewildered, "Bro, what do you mean? I can't translate this time!"

Uh, what requirements? Ning Xi does not understand what these four words without beginning or end mean

Marry me

Lu Jingli's translation device touched its nose and said, "My brother thinks that giving money is too insulting."

Ning Xi roared in her heart: It's alright, come and insult me!!

Just when Ning Xi was certain that this was the most appropriate request, Lu Tingxiao's expression became even more unpleasant

Lu Jia's identity is too special; she truly did not know what request would be appropriate. Just as the situation fell into a stalemate, Lu Tingxiao spoke up.

Given Lu Tingxiao's personality, he would likely prefer to use money to solve problems

If she doesn't want money, one might even think she has ulterior motives. If not for money, could it be for the person instead

Ning Xi believed that there was nothing wrong with this answer, yet Lu Tingxiao's expression was grim, which left her feeling alarmed and apprehensive

Is there still a need to force others to make requests

To avoid endless troubles in the future, it is better to sever ties with them.

Lu Jingli spoke, "The bar's storage room has surveillance cameras; I have checked them. Xiaobao entered on his own. As for you, the bar manager has admitted that it was she who locked you inside, so you need not worry. We do not suspect you; it was indeed you who saved Xiaobao. You might as well make a request!"

Having finally managed to stop her cough, she immediately looked over at Lu Jingli with great urgency
