23: Chapter 22 Little Apple 23: Chapter 22 Little Apple The two were intimate for a while longer, and by now, the sun was high in the sky, shining through the curtains into the room.
Lu Tianxing looked at the ti and didn’t stay any longer, quickly getting up and putting on his clothes and pants.
If he rembered correctly, today was supposed to be his first day at work.
Rose had wanted to get up and help, but just as she moved, a tearing pain made her frown and she reproached, “It’s all your fault, how am I supposed to manage today?”
“Oh!”
Lu Tianxing touched his nose awkwardly and said with annoyance, “What do you an manage?
You should just rest well, of course.
Do you plan on wandering around outside or sothing?”
“You know what’s good for you.”
Rose gave Lu Tianxing a glance and suddenly asked, “You’re planning to leave now?
Are you worried about your wife alone at ho, can’t bear to leave her?”
“Wife?
Forget it, she’s like a living Buddha, always with a cold face, as if everyone owes her a fortune.
It’d be easier for heaven to drop pies than for her to worry about .
I’m going to work at Bai’s Group,” Lu Tianxing said helplessly.
“Bai’s Group.”
Rose’s beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Lu Tianxing with a resentful gaze, “Now I see why you’re in such a hurry to leave!
It turns out you’re headed to Bai’s Group, a place teeming with beauties, and even the chairman is a top-class beauty.
You heartless wretch, I bet you plan to love ’em and leave ’em without a word.”
After saying that, Rose swept her alluring eyes over Lu Tianxing with a hint of charm.
“You siren.”
Lu Tianxing’s mind trembled, and he nearly made a rash move.
After getting dressed, Lu Tianxing instructed Rose to rest well, then went straight out of the room.
Rose, lying on the bed, watched the door close and let out a deep sigh, but a drunken smile surfaced on her pretty face as she seed to reminisce about last night.
After leaving the Zero Point Bar, Lu Tianxing turned on the car’s navigation and headed towards Bai’s Group.
His thoughts involuntarily went back to Xue Man and Bai Zhiqing’s faces, and a radiant smile appeared on his face.
This was the life he wanted, without having to worry about a bomb dropping on his head while sleeping.
No sooner had the car left the bustling streets and entered a quieter road with less traffic, Lu Tianxing heard a piercing roar of an engine from behind.
A yellow Ferrari rushed past, roaring closely by his car.
Lu Tianxing watched the speeding Ferrari with a frown but said nothing.
Little did he know, the yellow Ferrari he saw speed away had already stopped at the side of the road.
As Lu Tianxing’s car approached, the Ferrari’s engine revved loudly, the sound piercing and full of provocation.
Lu Tianxing chuckled bitterly, realizing that even driving an SUV didn’t save him from soone idle enough to challenge him to a race.
Shaking his head, Lu Tianxing turned the steering wheel, intending to leave by the side.
Just as he switched lanes, the Ferrari followed him and blocked his path.
No matter how Lu Tianxing moved, the Ferrari blocked his way from start to finish, making it impossible for him to proceed.
After several attempts, Lu Tianxing simply stopped the car, opened the door, got out, and walked towards the Ferrari with furrowed brows.
The owner of the Ferrari also got out, and to Lu Tianxing’s surprise, the owner was a pretty girl.
However, the girl was dressed quite alternatively, with flashy yellow hair, a white T-shirt, and denim hot pants.
She wore a large silver necklace around her neck, and had skull rings on her fingers.
Her face was innocent and beautiful, enough to drive those uncles who liked Lolitas crazy.
Only the heavy smoky makeup made her look sowhat out of place, but the greenness in her eyes betrayed her youth; she looked to be in her junior or senior year of high school.
The girl blinked her panda-like beautiful eyes, looked at Lu Tianxing as he approached, and revealed a triumphant smile, saying crisply, “Let introduce myself, I’m Qiaoqiao.
Nice to et you, uncle.
I wonder if you’re interested in racing .”
Lu Tianxing glanced at Qiaoqiao and spoke irritably, “I’m not interested in racing you.
Move your car; you’re blocking my way.”
Clearly stunned by Lu Tianxing’s attitude, Qiaoqiao burst into giggles soon after, revealing her mischievousness as she slyly said, “Uncle, do you have to be so old-fashioned?
If you beat , I’ll agree to any one condition you na, anything at all.
How about it, uncle?
Do you want to race?”
“I don’t want to race, and besides, I have no love for ‘Little Apple.’ Move your car now, or else don’t bla for being rude.”
Lu Tianxing gave Qiaoqiao a sidelong glance, uninterested in this pushy girl.
“Uncle, who are you calling ‘Little Apple’?
You’re the ‘Little Apple,’ your whole family is made of ‘Little Apples!’ I’ll tell you this, if you don’t race today, you can forget about getting past this road.”
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Qiaoqiao’s face imdiately turned discontent, she puffed out her chest with effort to no effect.
Lu Tianxing shook his head, lanting the state of the world, and no longer felt like saying anything more.
He walked straight toward the Ferrari, planning to move it himself.
“Uncle, you can’t go.
If you don’t race today, you’re not allowed to leave.
And if you don’t race with , I’ll call the police right now and say you sexually harassed .”
Seeing Lu Tianxing walking towards her car, Qiaoqiao beca dissatisfied.
She stretched out her arms to block his path, pouting and looking very displeased.
“Sexually harass you?”
Lu Tianxing glanced at Qiaoqiao with her smoky makeup and scoffed, “Do you think the police would believe that?
Please, next ti you co up with a reason, try to make it credible; and little girl, stop saying ‘****’ all day.
Go play by yourself; I’m not interested in playing with kids.”
Lu Tianxing was in a bad mood, it was his first ti seeing soone slander with such audacity, so his tone was naturally quite hostile.
“You…”
Qiaoqiao, fuming with anger from Lu Tianxing’s words, had a very bad day and just wanted to vent her frustration on soone.
She couldn’t believe this ugly uncle wouldn’t give her the ti of day.
Who did he think he was?
Did he really think she wanted to race him because she was into him?
She, Qiaoqiao, a youthful and beautiful girl, attracted attention wherever she went.
This uncle dared to ignore her so blatantly, as if he didn’t see her at all.
It was too much; she was totally overlooked, and she swore she would make Lu Tianxing pay a ‘severe’ price.
