Chapter 1152: Chapter 1145: Rainbow Bar
“Do you regret it?”
Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words unexpectedly, Lu Tianxing slowed down the car, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it for himself, and then slowly began to speak, “I’ve never regretted it. They were my brothers, charging for the country, even in death, leaving behind neither nas, nor records, not even a complete body.”
“If they died at the hands of the enemy, then they’d have died gloriously for the country, and there’d be nothing more to say. But they didn’t die in battle, they died due to the machinations of a group of despicable people, such a suffocating death. So I must take revenge, no matter what, those who hard them must die. I want to honor my brothers with the blood of their killers, even if it costs my future….”
Lu Tianxing’s voice took on a somber tone, laced with a hint of a grim killing intent: “I’ve never regretted anything I’ve done. Even if given another chance, I wouldn’t regret it. Anyone who dares to plot against my brothers must die, no matter who they are.”
Seeing Lu Tianxing’s sowhat ferocious expression, Bai Zhiqing felt a pang in her heart. Had she known it would be like this, she wouldn’t have asked him these questions.
“Lu Tianxing, I’m sorry, I…”
Bai Zhiqing opened her mouth to say sothing, but before she could finish, Lu Tianxing interrupted her: “Honey, you have nothing to apologize to for. We are husband and wife, there’s nothing we can’t say. From now on, don’t say sorry to , because between husband and wife, there’s nothing to be sorry about. And the one who should be apologizing is ; you give everything to , yet I can’t give you a whole heart, I….”
“Lu Tianxing, stop talking.”
Lu Tianxing’s words were cut off by Bai Zhiqing: “Lu Tianxing, didn’t you just tell ? We are husband and wife, there’s no need to say sorry. Moreover, I have never regretted being with you; you’re the man of my life.”
Lu Tianxing was moved, just as he wanted to say sothing, his phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Without hesitation, Lu Tianxing took out his phone. Seeing the caller ID, he frowned slightly, thought for a mont, and then answered the call in front of Bai Zhiqing.
“Miss Mu, do you need sothing?” Lu Tianxing imdiately said upon answering the call.
The call was from Mu Qingxue. Truth be told, he really didn’t want to have too many entanglents with Mu Qingxue. Precisely because he felt much guilt towards her, he wished to avoid too many entanglents, for the deeper the involvent, the deeper Mu Qingxue would be hurt in the end.
Sitting beside him, Bai Zhiqing’s expression was slightly startled when she heard Lu Tianxing’s words. She took a deep breath but said nothing, just sat quietly as if she didn’t hear Lu Tianxing’s conversation with Mu Qingxue.
“Are you free? I’d like to invite you out for a drink.”
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Mu Qingxue’s just-gathered courage deflated like a burst balloon. If Lu Tianxing’s hearing weren’t sharp, he might not have caught what Mu Qingxue was saying.
Upon hearing Mu Qingxue’s words, Lu Tianxing frowned, his gaze instinctively landing on Bai Zhiqing beside him. Just as he was about to refuse, Mu Qingxue’s heavenly voice once again echoed from the receiver.
“My brother is taking back to Beijing tomorrow. I’m inviting you out today just to say goodbye, is that okay?”
Listening to Mu Qingxue’s sowhat pleading tone, Lu Tianxing eventually sighed lightly, “Where are you? I’ll co over in a bit.”
“I’ll be waiting at the Rainbow Bar on Fenghua Road for you.”
“Alright, I’ll be over soon.”
With those words, Lu Tianxing hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and with a bitter smile, said to Bai Zhiqing, “Honey, I….”
“Lu Tianxing, if you have sothing to do, just go ahead! I’ll take a taxi ho by myself.” Bai Zhiqing didn’t ask where Lu Tianxing was going, nor did she question his relationship with Mu Qingxue. She just said softly.
“Honey, I don’t feel secure with you going back alone, let drive you ho!”
“Okay!”
Lu Tianxing said no more, just drove the car down the road. After about twenty minutes, the car stopped at the entrance of the Garden Hotel.
Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing got out of the car.
As they reached the hotel entrance, Bai Zhiqing suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Tianxing, “Lu Tianxing, I don’t care about your relationship with Mu Qingxue, but you must co back to tonight. If you don’t, be prepared to lose a piece of yourself.”
Before she finished speaking, Bai Zhiqing didn’t wait for Lu Tianxing to respond and directly turned to walk into the hotel.
Watching Bai Zhiqing’s back, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but smile wryly. He took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and turned to walk out of the hotel.
Just as he reached the driver’s seat and was about to get in the car, Lu Tianxing seed to rember sothing. Speaking into the empty air, he said nonchalantly, “I have to leave for a while. Protect the Young Mistress well. If any stranger gets close with harmful intentions towards the Young Mistress, kill without rcy. If anything happens, I’ll take full responsibility.”
If soone were nearby to hear Lu Tianxing’s words, they’d probably think he was crazy, talking to thin air in an empty surrounding. What else could he be but a fool?
However, following Lu Tianxing’s words, a voice drifted through the air, “Yes, Third Young Master.”
This voice belonged to the Lu Family Guards, a force under the command of the Head of the Lu Family. Since Mu Qingxue had been kidnapped by Liang Shidao, Old Sir Lu had specifically dispatched the Lu Family Guards to secretly protect Bai Zhiqing.
After hearing this response, Lu Tianxing said nothing more, got into the car, and left the Garden Hotel, heading towards the Rainbow Bar that Mu Qingxue had ntioned.
Rainbow Bar is one of the more renowned bars on Fenghua Road, but unlike other bars, Rainbow Bar does not blast eardrum-piercing music or invite a crowd of pretty won to dance lasciviously on stage, drawing shouts and cries from nurous n.
Instead, it goes against the norm. Calling it a bar is less accurate than calling it a high-end restaurant cloaked as a bar. It’s very quiet inside, barely any noise, with only gentle music floating through the bar, carrying a touch of poetic elegance.
Moreover, those who co to Rainbow Bar aren’t your typical flashy n and won, but true elites—white-collar workers, dressed in suits, sitting around in threes and fours, leisurely sipping on drinks. Naturally, there are more won than n, for many won do not like the raucousness of typical bars, and so this bar has naturally beco their primary destination.
