Chapter 436: A Different Purpose for Coming

Lu Qing was still sprawled on the sofa, munching from a bunch of grapes he was holding. His eyes were fixed in Xu Xuan’s direction, as if he was watching a very interesting show.

It was obvious that he had been expecting this to happen.

Xu Xuan took a deep breath and shot him a pleading look. She was very close to weeping. “Why are you doing this? Did I offend you in any way?”

A dark cloud pa.s.sed over Lu Qing’s face at her words, but it was gone in an instant.

He grinned at her and said, “Offend me? Do you think you’re in any position to do so?”

His question evoked a number of ugly thoughts in Xu Xuan’s head—

She was nothing more than an ant to him, worthless and easily squashed. Just because he couldn’t lay a finger on Yao Tang, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t touchXu Xuan.

He was a rich young master, after all, and was free to act on his whims according to his fancy.

Enraged, Xu Xuanpushed against the men like a madwoman and dashed toward the bathroom. Her mind was clouded; she was no longer thinking straight.

All she knew was that she needed to save her grandmother.

She retrieved the medicine bottle and hurried back to the old woman. With shaking fingers, she took out a pill and popped it into Grandma Xu’s mouth.

At this point, the old woman had already pa.s.sed out and was incapable of something so simple as swallowing.

She couldn’t ingest the pill.

A desperate sob broke past Xu Xuan’s lips.

All of a sudden, a fair hand appeared in front of her. It reached for Grandma Xu and pressed down on an acupuncture point in the old lady’s palm.

Before Xu Xuancould even make sense of the action, she realized that her grandmother had already swallowed the pill.

“Go and get some water,” a voice came from somewhere above her.

Xu Xuan was about to jump back inside and get a gla.s.s of water when it was magically handed over to her.

She wasted no time and helped her grandmother take a few sips, rubbing the old lady’s back as she did.

She watched as Grandma Xu’s breathing gradually returned to normal.

Only then did Xu Xua.n.a.llow herself to breathe a sigh of relief. She finally looked up to see who their savior was, only to findYao Tangstanding before her.

“Thank you,” Xu Xuanrasped, her voice solemn and grateful.

“Hey, whoever you are in there! What were you trying to do, huh?” Qin Jingput her hands on her waist and glared at Lu Qin, her dainty brows knitted in anger.

She and Yao Tang had followed Xu Xuan the entire time. They had even overheard the girl’s conversation with the manager earlier.

Initially, when they heard that Xu Xuanwas here for the bracelet, they decided to leave her to her business and eat some snacks instead.

But when their server brought their snacks over just now, Yao Tangcaught sight of the commotions and immediately strode over.

Qin Jing followed close behind, of course, and they were met with the scene ofXu Xuanand her grandmother on the floor.

Qin Jing herself had no idea what had transpired, but her instincts told her that everything had to do with the man in the private room.

In response to her challenge, Lu Qin smirked at her and raised his wine gla.s.s in a mock toast.

“I was just planning to do a good deed today. I happened to find this young lady’s lost bracelet, so I purposely came to give it back to her. Well? Am I not kind?”

Then his eyes drifted over to Yao Tang, and his expression darkened. “MissYao Tang, it seems that we are really fated to run into each other every time we are out and about.”

Yao Tang glanced at him coldly and said, “It seems to me that you are itching to be taught yet another lesson.”

Lu Qing instantly paled and shuddered. “Ha! I must say, MissYao Tang, after what you did the last time we met, I’ve grown rather interested in you.”

He thought back to his promising career back when he had first come to City A, and how it all crumbled down when the project cooperation was unceremoniously terminated. The memory left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Because of that incident, his brother had chewed him out mercilessly.

It was also because of that incident that he had returned to City Aand asked forXu Xuan. He had even sent someone to bring over this old lady as an added collateral.

This time, he had a different purpose for coming. He was here to vent his rage and tie loose ends.

Lu Qing was so caught up with his plans that he failed to notice the wayYao Tang’s eyes narrowed as she caught sight of the bracelet still between his fingers.

Qin Jing, on the other hand, was fighting the urge to storm into the private room and slap Lu Qingfor being so shameless.

“If you really want to return the bracelet, then why is it still with you?” she demanded.
