Capítulo 1592: Chapter 1585: Beijing—No Choice But to Go
More than half an hour later, the taxi steadily stopped at the gate of the Bai Family Ancestral House.
Looking at the familiar building in front of him, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, suppressed his thoughts, and directly pushed the door open to walk in.
Just as he walked into the living room, Lu Tianxing’s expression paused slightly, and his heart trembled suddenly. The atmosphere in the living room seed a bit off. Could sothing have happened before he returned?
At this mont, Bai Qiao Mountain was sitting on the sofa with a heavy expression, not saying a word, silently smoking. Next to Bai Qiao Mountain, Bai Zhiqing, Bai Weiwei, and Mandala were like mice seeing a cat, not daring to breathe loudly, sitting there cautiously. Their eyes occasionally glanced at Bai Qiao Mountain and then quickly retracted as if they were afraid of being noticed, like children who had done sothing wrong.
When the sound of the door opening was heard, Bai Qiao Mountain looked up at Lu Tianxing, and his face instantly beca sowhat unpleasant. This made the ominous premonition in Lu Tianxing’s heart grow stronger, guessing about where he might have recently offended the old man.
“Grandpa, I’m back.”
Lu Tianxing cautiously called out.
“Grandpa? You still dare to call grandpa? Get yourself to the study right away. I’ll be waiting for you there, and be quick about it.”
As he finished speaking, Bai Qiao Mountain stood up from the sofa imdiately, not giving Lu Tianxing any chance to speak. With his hands clasped behind his back, he strode towards the study.
Lu Tianxing stood where he was, looking at the old man in astonishnt, with a bitter smile on his face. What’s up with this old man? Why is he speaking as if he’s eaten gunpowder? It seems like I haven’t offended him! Why is he so angry? Could it be because Zhiqing hasn’t had any news from her belly, so he’s blaming for not working hard?
Just as Lu Tianxing was speculating about the reason, Mandala and Bai Weiwei tiptoed up from the sofa. They first glanced towards the study and, once they saw that Bai Qiao Mountain hadn’t appeared, imdiately walked towards Lu Tianxing, circling around him several tis.
“Brother, you better confess honestly, what exactly did you do outside today to make grandpa so angry? I’ve never seen him this furious before!”
“Exactly, brother-in-law, tell honestly, did grandpa catch you cheating behind my sister’s back? Is that why he’s so angry?”
Listening to Mandala and Bai Weiwei’s words, Lu Tianxing rolled his eyes, ignoring their remarks. He took a deep breath and, looking at Bai Zhiqing, asked, “Wife, what on earth happened to make grandpa this angry all of a sudden?”
“I… I called to ask you to co back, and just as grandpa ca out, he casually asked if you were planning to go to Beijing soon. I didn’t think much of it and told him. But who knew grandpa would suddenly fly into a rage after hearing it? Tianxing, I’m sorry…”
At this point, Bai Zhiqing raised her head to look at Lu Tianxing, her face showing a strong sense of guilt. She hadn’t expected her grandpa to react so violently upon hearing Lu Tianxing was going to Beijing, becoming so furious.
Seeing Bai Zhiqing’s guilty expression, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, walked over to her, and sat down, gently wrapping his arm around her waist. He said softly, “Wife, it’s okay, you don’t have to bla yourself. It’s impossible to keep the trip to Beijing a secret. I’ll explain it to grandpa later. Don’t worry too much, I’ll convince him.”
“Okay.”
Bai Zhiqing nodded lightly, resting her head on Lu Tianxing’s shoulder.
“Ah.”
Just then, there was a frantic voice from the side. Bai Weiwei and Mandala stood there looking unhappy.
“Brother, I know you and Sister Zhiqing are very much in love, but could you showcase your affection in a more suitable place? Can’t you see we’re standing right here? Look at my arm, I’ve got goosebumps. Showing off affection can lead to a quick downfall, you know?”
“Exactly, Manman is right. Brother-in-law, we’re already pitiful enough as single dogs, and you and sister keep feeding us dog food all day long. I’m telling you, be careful, or Manman and I might turn into the FFF squad and burn you heteros alive.” Bai Weiwei nodded along as she spoke.
“Serves you right. I don’t know who said their man would co riding on colorful clouds to marry them. It was Houzi who rode those clouds, and since you like Houzi so much, you deserve to be single. It’s none of my business. Plus, you can’t control being close with my wife. If you don’t like it, don’t look.”
Lu Tianxing glanced at Bai Weiwei and Mandala, then, under their murderous gaze, proudly kissed Bai Zhiqing on the cheek, then provocatively looked at Bai Weiwei and Mandala, saying disdainfully, “A couple of single dogs.”
“You…”
After hearing Lu Tianxing, Bai Weiwei and Mandala imdiately went mad, jumping in anger, and pounced on Lu Tianxing. This was unbearable; they wanted to burn this bastard Lu Tianxing.
It seed Lu Tianxing was already aware of their intentions. His figure flickered and disappeared from the sofa, reappearing at the corner of the first floor: “Girls, you think you can take on? You’re still too inexperienced. Just obediently be single dogs! Or eat the dog food quietly, unless you find soone to marry soon!”
As the words fell, Lu Tianxing quickly left the spot and headed towards the study.
Bai Weiwei and Mandala looked angrily in the direction Lu Tianxing had disappeared, stomping their feet, but their black and white eyes were darting around, soon settling on Bai Zhiqing.
“Sis, look, brother-in-law is actually mocking us. You must teach him a lesson, or else he’ll be uncontrollable in the future.” Bai Weiwei said with a pitiful expression.
“Exactly, Sister Zhiqing, look at my brother, he’s really too much, actually mocking us. I strongly suggest you let him sleep on the sofa tonight to give him an unforgettable lesson.” Mandala chid in.
“That’s right.”
Bai Weiwei looked gravely at Bai Zhiqing and said, “Sister Zhiqing, brother-in-law is getting more and more daring, he must be taught a lesson. Besides, I read online that n mustn’t be given too much face, or they’ll definitely walk all over you, and you won’t be able to control him in the future. Tonight, I strongly suggest letting brother-in-law sleep on the sofa.”
Luckily, Lu Tianxing didn’t know that after he left, Bai Weiwei and Mandala were talking behind his back and plotting against him, or he might be furious enough to spit blood. This was what it ant to be set up, and these two girls were really setting him up for death.
anwhile, in the study on the first floor, Bai Qiao Mountain sat on a Taishi Chair, a pipe in his mouth, sitting there with a serious expression, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The entire study was filled with a hint of smoke, but the old man seed oblivious to it.
“Knock knock!”
Just then, the door of the study was knocked, and then Lu Tianxing pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing the sowhat cold expression on Bai Qiao Mountain’s face, he slowly exhaled a breath.
“Grandpa.” Lu Tianxing addressed Bai Qiao Mountain.
Since Lu Tianxing entered the room, Bai Qiao Mountain hadn’t moved, continuing to smoke, as if he hadn’t seen Lu Tianxing enter at all.
After Lu Tianxing spoke again, Bai Qiao Mountain tapped the pipe on the desk: “So you’re here.”
The voice seed sowhat oppressive, giving people a feeling of being unable to breathe.
Lu Tianxing could see that Bai Qiao Mountain was already in a rage; one wrong move, and Lu Tianxing had no doubt that Bai Qiao Mountain would take out a gun and fire at his head.
“Grandpa, you’re getting old, you should smoke less, it’s better for your health.”
“Do you even know how to care about ?” Bai Qiao Mountain said calmly.
“Uh!”
Lu Tianxing imdiately had a wry smile, not knowing what to say. He knew very well that Bai Qiao Mountain was so angry probably because he wanted to go to Beijing, and probably knew sothing about it, that’s why he was like this.
“If you really cared about , you wouldn’t be going to Beijing. Do you know the consequences of going to Beijing, do you really think you’re invincible?”
Bai Qiao Mountain took a deep puff of smoke, his voice tinged with barely concealed anger. Although he was old, it didn’t an he was senile. When Bai Zhiqing told him Lu Tianxing was about to go to Beijing, he specifically called an old friend to ask about it, only to learn that if Lu Tianxing dared to go to Beijing this ti, it would truly be a one-way trip. The Holy Daughter of the Holy See was in Beijing waiting for Lu Tianxing to fall into the trap himself; this trip to Beijing was no different from a death wish.
Upon hearing Bai Qiao Mountain’s words, Lu Tianxing had a wry smile on his face: “Grandpa, I…”
Before Lu Tianxing could finish speaking, he was unceremoniously interrupted by Bai Qiao Mountain, who said, “What are you saying? Are you trying to say you are the Third Young Master of Lu Family, and no one dares to do anything to you? That’s nonsense! If the other side wants to kill you, being the Third Young Master of Lu Family won’t help you at all. Even Lu Tiankuang doesn’t dare to go to Beijing, and if you go to Beijing now, it is no different from sending yourself to death, do you understand?”
Bai Qiao Mountain’s tone was not at all polite, yet it made Lu Tianxing’s body tremble uncontrollably; he could hear the concern in Bai Qiao Mountain’s words.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Tianxing slowly opened his mouth and said, “Grandpa, I know what you want to say, but this trip to Beijing, I must go.”
The last four words were spoken with unusual determination, representing his unshakable resolve to go to Beijing.
