Chapter 065: Captain Lu's lack of mental fortitude

Su Mianmian asked to wash up, and Li Mingzhe told her to hurry up. Su Mianmian wanted to see if she could find a tool to contact Lu Xiangdong.

But in a short amount of time, she realized that the father and son were really smart. They had removed all the communication tools in the room. She searched for a long time but couldn't find a pen, paper, or phone.

"What are you looking for? A phone?" Li Mingzhe suddenly appeared at her door. He crossed his arms over his chest and held a phone in his hands. He squinted at her.

Su Mianmian quickly crawled out from under the counter and tidied up the messy corner of her clothes. She glanced at the phone in his hand and shook her head "No, my hairpin fell down. I went down to pick it up. Here, take a look if you don't believe me." She was really holding a butterfly hairpin in her hand.

Li Mingzhe walked over to her, took the hairpin from her hand, and threw it out of the window.

"Are you lying? I warned you long ago not to contact the outside world. Don't take what I say for granted." He flew into a rage. The veins on his forehead faintly appeared. He grabbed her wrist and threw her against the wall.

Su Mianmian held her wrist in pain and glared at him.

"Since you don't have the heart to wash up, there's no need to wash up." He grabbed her arm, pulled the door open, and forcefully dragged her away.

"Let go of me! I can leave on my own!"

Li Hong, who was drinking tea on the living room sofa, put down his teacup and asked, "What are you doing? Why are you making such a racket?"

Li Mingzhe shook off her hand and said respectfully to Li Hong, "Dad, everything is ready. You can leave for the mainland immediately."

Li Hong walked in front of Su Mianmian. He lowered his head and played with an emerald ring on his thumb. His gazed sinisterly as he sized her up from head to toe. Then, he raised his head and gave her a meaningful smile. "Chengwu Su, you're also a smart person. You should know which side is more advantageous to you. Lu Wenzhong wants to get rid of you, but I'm different. Not only will I not kill you, I'll use you more."

Su Mianmian looked at him. He was going to use her? As the saying goes, you can't judge a book by its cover. This man was obviously hiding a knife in that smile of his. She would not be stupid enough to fall for his trick.

"If you have a grudge with Lu Wenzhong, so you can settle it with him. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with me."

He shock a finger. "You're wrong. You're his son's woman, yet he's still ruthless. He's cold-blooded and heartless. Why do you have to care about who he is? It's definitely not wrong for you to follow me. Am I right?"

"To be honest, I admire your investigative ability. However, you keep slandering others." Su Mianmian said unhappily.

Li Mingzhe interrupted, "Su Mianmian, pay attention to your tone and attitude."

She had always been very direct.

"You guys saved me. I should be grateful to you guys, but if you want me to do something outrageous, the heavens won't stand for it. So, please do me a favor and let me go."

Li Mingzhe curled his lips into a snarl. Li Hong waved his hand and said with a smile, "Since you have no intention to help us, we won't force you. You can go."

Su Mianmian looked at him in disbelief. "You're really letting me go? You're not lying to me?"

"I am not the kind of person to go back on his words. Let's go." Li Hong revealed a strange smile. Su Mianmian knew that if she walked out now, she would definitely be killed by his people.

Su Mianmian licked her lips and smiled. "I'm not leaving. I haven't repaid my great kindness, so how could I leave just like that? Tell me about your plan, your goal."

Li Mingzhe and Li Hong looked at each other, seemingly communicating in a way that only they could understand.

Su Mianmian felt that they were definitely not good people. She knew it would be best to wait until they boarded the plane before thinking of a way to escape.

She did not know if they had other intentions. The return flight they took was an NEPC International Airlines flight. This was undoubtedly a great opportunity for Su Mianmian to escape.

The two men sandwiched her, with one sitting to the left of her and the other to the right. They were afraid that she would escape.

Su Mianmian looked for someone in the crowd who could help her escape. Suddenly, Xu Mengting and Tang Wenyun walked over in front of her in their uniforms. Xu Mengting was helping the passengers check their seatbelts. Tang Wenyun walked towards her row and saw her. She covered her mouth in surprise. Just as she was about to call her name, Su Mianmian stretched out a foot from under the seat and kicked Tang Wenyun across Li Mingzhe's leg.

Tang Wenyun felt the pain. She looked down and saw that it was Su Mianmian's foot. Then, she looked up at her. She did not understand why she was sitting here when she had not been at work in the past two days.

Su Mianmian gave her a look that said, 'don't make a sound.'

Tang Wenyun noticed how Su Mianmian was acting strangely. She glanced at the two men sitting to her left and right. She quickly responded with a smile and bent down to ask, "Excuse me, passenger, how can I help you?"

"Stewardess, I need a phone. Please give me an emergency phone."

The two men beside her froze for a moment, they could not help but look at her with disbelief.

Su Mianmian explained, "I'm behind on my phone bill. I need to send a text message to ask my friend to pay for my phone bill."

Tang Wenyun quickly gave her a phone. Su Mianmian smiled and thanked her. "Stewardess, please wait for a moment. I'll return it to you after I send the text message. Don't leave yet."

With Tang Wenyun standing there, the two men beside her would not dare to do anything shocking.

Li Mingzhe wanted to snatch the phone, but they were on a plane and he could not make too much noise.

Li Hong gave him a look, signaling him not to act rashly.

After sending the text, Su Mianmian handed the phone back to Tang Wenyun and thanked her. "Thank you for your phone, stewardess. My friend has received my text message. My phone will be charged soon."

Tang Wenyun was stunned. She did not understand what she was doing.

When she reached the resting area, she let Xu Mengting read the text message. "You sent me a text message? What is this?"

Tang Wenyun understood everything immediately after reading the message.

"Sister Su is in trouble. We have to think of a way to get the two men next to her away."

Xu Mengting was confused. "What trouble?"

"Don't ask so many questions. Think of a way to get the two men away first."

"Okay!"

Xu Mengting and Tang Wenyun tidied up their clothes and pushed their beverage carts out.

Su Mianmian looked at them hopefully. Whether she could escape successfully would depend on the two of them.

The beverage cart stopped besides Su Mianmian. Xu Mengting picked up an open bottle and said politely, "Sir, let me fill up your bottle."

Li Mingzhe was about to refuse, but Xu Mengting aimed the bottle at his pants and splashed it over his crotch.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose. I'm really sorry!" Xu Mengting quickly used a wet cloth to wipe him down. Li Mingzhe grabbed her wrist and threw her hand aside. "Get lost!"

He had seen through the obvious prank. Fortunately, his father was still sitting beside him when he went to the bathroom to wash his pants.

Su Mianmian held back her smile and threw a grateful look at Xu Mengting.

Xu Mengting secretly gestured with her hands behind her back.

However, Su Mianmian couldn't escape now because the dark man was still sitting beside her. She had to get rid of him.

She didn't know what their plan was.

Tang Wenyun had already planned everything. She walked down the aisle and pointed at Li Hong. She smiled and said, "Sir, you have been selected by the NEPC International Airlines to be our lucky customer. Please come with me to receive the award."

Li Hong looked at her with disdain. "I'm not interested. No thanks."

"Even if you don't want it, you still have to sign for it. That's the airline's rule. Please cooperate, sir," Tang Wenyun said patiently.

Li Hong was not stupid. He would not leave until his son returned.

"Go and get it before we get off the plane."

"Sir, are you afraid that no one will look after your things? Don't worry. We will arrange for someone to look after you while you are away. Please come with me to sign the award."

Su Mianmian broke out with a cold sweat. What kind of award were they going to give him?

Li Hong was annoyed by her. He instructed her, "Take good care of my daughter-in-law. If she's missing, I'll settle the score with you!"

"Yes, sir. Please follow me." Tang Wenyun led Li Hong away. She turned around to gesture a thumbs up to Su Mianmian.

Su Mianmian was so scared that she broke out into a cold sweat. She quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and fled from her seat.

* * * * * * * * * *

Lu Xiangdong was worried that he would never find Su Mianmian. He sat on a flight to the mainland.

A meeting was being held in The NEPC International Airlines conference room.

"Captain Lu, you can't just barge in. The chairman is meeting with a guest right now." No matter how the assistant tried to stop him, Lu Xiangdong continued forward. Ignoring the assistant's presence, he insisted on barging into the conference room.

"Captain Lu, you can't go in!" Before the assistant could finish speaking, Lu Xiangdong had already pushed open the conference room door.

Lu Wenzhong looked up at him, then said apologetically to the guest, "I'm really sorry. I have some private matters to deal with. Regarding the contract, I'll contact my assistant to deal with it later."

"Alright then. I won't disturb your private time," he smiled and said to his assistant, "Let's go."

When the guest and his assistant had left, Lu Xiangdong walked into the conference room and punched the conference table.

"Where did you hide Su Mianmian?"

Lu Wenzhong motioned for his assistant to close the conference room door. After the assistant closed the door for them, he left.

"Have a cup of tea first. I have something to say to you." Lu Wenzhong motioned for him to sit down and listen to him.

Lu Xiangdong did not have the time to listen to his nonsense. All he wanted was to know where Su Mianmian was and if she was safe.

"What do you have to say today?"

Lu Wenzhong put out his cigarette in an ashtray. His gaze fell outside the meeting room window.

"Xiangdong, I know that you have always held a grudge against me because of what happened to your mother. I'm not trying to clear my name for the crime I've committed. I just want you to know that The NEPC International Airlines isn't just mine. It's also your mother's hard work. If you're still unwilling to accept it, it means that you're unfilial." Lu Wenzhong triggered the deepest sorrow in Lu Xiangdong's heart. How could he ignore that he was the one who caused his mother's death?

He raised his head and let out a sorrowful laugh. He turned his head to look at Lu Wenzhong and shouted at the top of his lungs, "What right do you have to mention her? You're not worthy at all."

Lu Wenzhong clenched his fists tightly. His old face flushed red as he knocked over the ashtray.

The ashtray fell onto the marble floor, causing a shattering sound to erupt.

Lu Xiangdong stared at him, and Lu Wenzhong stared right back. The two of them were in a stalemate.

Lu Wenzhong suddenly smiled, straightened up, and patted him on the shoulder.

Lu Xiangdong felt sorrowful.

"You're right. I'm not good enough for your mother. If I had been more concerned about her back then, it wouldn't have resulted in the tragedy that followed. You should hate me."

Lu Xiangdong was silent. He had heard this countless times since he was young. Other than feeling grief, he felt mostly numb.

"I'm not here today to listen to your confession. I want to know where Su Mianmian is," he shouted at Lu Wenzhong.

"She's very safe now. You don't have to worry."

"Do you even believe this? There's nothing trustworthy about you. Do you think I'll believe you again? Chairman Lu!" He suddenly stood up, his handsome face flushed.

Lu Wenzhong clutched his chest as Lu Xiangdong yelled. He was so uncomfortable that he broke out in a cold sweat. He could not stand it, he was having a heart attack! This had been one of the reasons why he had been urging his son to take over.

"Stop pretending in front of me. Do you think that I will agree to your request just because you're pretending to be sick?" Lu Xiangdong said with obvious worry plastered on his face.

"I-" He grabbed the table and slowly took a breath. Suddenly, the door of the meeting room was knocked open. He clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Chairman Lu, how have you been? It's been decades since we last saw each other. You look in good health!"

The sight of Li Hong and Li Mingzhe made Lu Wenzhong tremble.

Lu Xiangdong noticed Lu Wenzhong's strange behavior. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are they?"

Li Hong looked at Lu Xiangdong and suddenly laughed. "He's Wenpei's son? Lu Wenzhong, you really won't have a life to enjoy. Your son is already so old, yet he still needs you to guard the company every day. If you were to step down, would this company have no successors?"

He gestured to the size of the office space and then pushed Li Mingzhe in front of Lu Wenzhong. "However, I've already thought of a way for you to let my son inherit the Lu's family business. You and your son can go back to enjoy the northwest wind."

Li Mingzhe smiled and called out, "Uncle Lu."

Lu Wenzhong angrily glared at him.

Lu Xiangdong looked at the two unfamiliar men in front of him, then looked at Lu Wenzhong and pursed his lips.

Lu Wenzhong grabbed Lu Xiangdong's arm and shouted with some difficulty, "Li Hong, it was a waste for me to take you in back then. This is how you repay the Lu family? You heartless dog. I'm not dead yet, and even if I die, my son will inherit the Lu's family business. It's not up to you. Get lost!"

"Your voice is as loud as a bell, yet I see that you're on the verge of collapse? Are you feeling unwell?" Li Hong gloated.

Although Lu Xiangdong did not know the father and son, he concluded from their conversation that they were related to the Lu family, and that they wanted to take over the Lu's family business for themselves.

He looked at Li Hong expressionlessly until Li Hong walked over. It appeared that he wanted to push Lu Wenzhong down. However, Lu Xiangdong saw through his evil scheme.

Lu Xiangdong grabbed Li Hong's hand and roared, "Get lost! If you don't get lost, wait for the security guards to kick you out."

He did not feel sorry for Lu Wenzhong, but he did not want others to spy on The NEPC International Airlines either. No matter how annoying Lu Wenzhong was, he was still his father, and the company was the only thing he had left of his mother. He could not let the company fall into the hands of outsiders.

"Are you trying to intimidate us? Even if you get back together, we have nothing to fear. I've waited for decades! Finally, I can enter The NEPC. This proves that I'm fully prepared!" Li Hong raised his head and laughed loudly. His laughter sounded disgusting.

Li Mingzhe laughed, "Uncle Lu, you'd better take care of your health. You aren't capable of managing this company anymore, so leave it to us juniors. People don't live for fame and fortune, they live to be happy. You're already so old, it's time for you to enjoy your life."

Lu Wenzhong's hands were trembling. "Animals! You two animals, get lost!"

Lu Xiangdong had never seen Lu Wenzhong so angry. It was clear the two had a strong history.

He did not waste time with them. He picked up an earpiece on the desk and ordered, "Tell the security guards to come to the conference room immediately."

Li Hong and his son saw that the situation was no longer in their favor, so they could only leave. Before leaving, they mocked Lu Wenzhong again. "Chairman Lu, think about the wicked things you have done. Do you think you can hide it from your son for the rest of your life?"

"Are you still not leaving? Are you waiting for the security guards to send you to the police station?" Lu Xiangdong spat out.

Li Hong dragged his son and left unwillingly.

Finally, Lu Xiangdong and Lu Wenzhong were left in the conference room alone.

Lu Wenzhong looked like he had aged years in an instant. He seemed to have lost his mind. He put his hands on his thighs and lowered his head.

Lu Xiangdong wanted to know what Lu Wenzhong was hiding from him.

"Chairman Lu, do you have something to tell me? There are a lot of things you are hiding from me," he said through gritted teeth.

He raised his head and looked at Lu Xiangdong. He reached out to touch his cigarette but could not find it.

He looked at Lu Xiangdong without focus, and opened his mouth to speak.

"Xiangdong, now you know why I was forcing you into the company. The Li's want to take over the company. If you care at all, then please take over the company and help me out," he spoke with difficulty.

Lu Xiangdong looked at him unmoved. He crossed his arms and stared at him as though he was a stranger.

"You don't believe me? I promise you that if I say a lie today, I should be struck by lightning!" he raised his hand to swear to the heavens, "Xiangdong, for the company, for your mother. Do you have the heart to let the company fall into the hands of outsiders? Li is not a good man. When your grandfather was alive, he treated him like a son. After he kicked off, he tried everything to divide up the Lu family's property. Your grandmother was still around, and so she kicked him out of the family. The day Li Hong left, he swore that he would come back. Now that he's really back, I'm afraid he's really going to take the company away from me."

Lu Wenzhong pounded at his chest. He gave a sad look.

Lu Xiangdong didn't mind running the company, but his true ambition was not management. He wanted to fly. He would feel constrained if he had to give up flying to become a manager of the company.

"Is there no other way but to let me in?"

He shook his head.

"What do you want me to do?"

Lu Wenzhong looked up at him. "What did you say? You want to join the company? You promise to join the company?"

Lu Xiangdong nodded with difficulty.

"That's great, that's really great." Lu Wenzhong was so happy that he cried. His wish had finally come true.

"I have a request. I hope that you can keep it for me." Lu Xiangdong struggled like he never had before.

Lu Wenzhong nodded. "Tell me, what is your request?''

"I want to divorce Su Mianmian and marry Qi Chuyan. Don't ask about anything. Don't make things difficult for Su Mianmian." This was his only request. Since he had accepted the conditions to enter the company, he would definitely face many difficulties and obstacles in the future. If Su Mianmian followed him, not only would she be unhappy, she would also be in danger. He could not selfishly keep her by his side.

If he married a woman he did not like, he would not care have to care about her safety. Qi Chuyan was his best choice at the moment. Keeping Qi Chuyan by his side to deal with the Li family would be better than letting that Su Mianmian take the risks.

He would have to make this decision. It was the best choice for him and Su Mianmian. He had never touched Su Mianmian, so she still had a chance to meet an outstanding man. Nobody had known they were married.

This was more difficult for him than anyone else. No one could know the pain he felt in his heart.

Lu Wenzhong knew that this was hard for his son. It was hard for him to give up his dreams and become a manager of the company.

He patted Lu Xiangdong on the shoulder. He sighed and said, "You can manage the company peacefully. I won't ask about your personal matters anymore. You can marry whoever you want. Even if you want to be together with Su Mianmian, I won't object anymore."

Lu Xiangdong pursed his thin lips. Did he still have a choice?

* * * * * *

Su Mianmian, who had successfully escaped from the plane, was rushing towards the villa. She was not sure if Lu Xiangdong had returned home, but she had to find a cell phone to call him.

Panting heavily, she opened the door and found that the house was empty. He did not seem to have returned.

She ran to the sofa, grabbed the landline phone, and called his number. The call went through, but no one picked up. She bit her lips, anxiously waiting.

Why wouldn't he pick up?

"Hello, Su Mianmian?"

His deep voice came from the receiver. Before she could speak, a very soft female voice came from beside him. Although the voice was very soft, she could hear it clearly.

There was a woman beside him?

Her nose felt sore, and she felt tears flow freely from her eyes. She had run back desperately to look for him, but he had been looking for another woman. She almost dropped the phone.

"Where are you? I've already come back from the Philippines." She did not know why she said this to him. Perhaps it was because she had been thinking about him, but now she suddenly realized that her worries were unnecessary.

"It's good that you're back. Wait for me at home later. I have something for you." He sounded a little hoarse, but his tone was no different from usual. Su Mianmian felt dazed for a moment.

What exactly did he want to give her?

After hanging up the phone, Su Mianmian sat on the sofa. She wrapped her arms around her legs and pressed her head to her knees. She felt completely depressed.

At seven o'clock in the evening, he arrived home. When he entered the house, he was holding a document in his hand.

Su Mianmian, who was sitting on the living room sofa, raised her head to glance at him. He walked straight towards her and stood in front of her.

She blinked her eyes, confused, and asked, "What do you want to give me?"

Lu Xiangdong took out a document from the yellow folder and gave it to her. "Divorce agreement. You sign it, and this villa will belong to you from now on."

Divorce Agreement? Su Mianmian's face instantly turned pale, and her eyes widened in surprise. Did she hear him correctly? He wanted to divorce her? Why?

"What's the reason?" Even though she was sad, she pretended not to care.

"I'm going to marry Qi Chuyan. This reason should be enough, right?" He saw the sadness in her eyes, but reminded himself that he was doing this for her own good. He did not want her to suffer with him, but this was something that she could never know. He didn't plan to tell her.

"Marry Qi Chuyan! You're really fast!" She smiled insincerely, it didn't reach her eyes.

The divorce that she had hoped for was right in front of her eyes. She only needed to pick up a pen and write her name on it, and everything would be over. But she felt too dazed.

"I didn't touch you. You're still intact. After the divorce, there will still be many men who will marry you." His face dimmed. The divorce agreement seemed to weigh thousands of pounds. His pursed his lips.

Su Mianmian stood up from the sofa and took the divorce agreement. She tore it into pieces in front of him and threw it at his face.

"You want a divorce? Wait for two years! You want to be with Qi Chuyan? Don't even think that I'll let you two have your way. We'll both suffer and die together. Let's perish together."

Lu Xiangdong looked at her with a bitter smile. Why hadn't he expected her to react like this? He had thought that when she saw the divorce agreement, she would happily sign her name and then leave.

He seemed to have made a mistake.

"Su Mianmian, after the divorce, you'll have more choices. You can choose to marry an outstanding man."

But she did not want a divorce.

"Why do you care so much about me? Who I want to marry is none of your business. Mind your own business." She looked at him angrily.

Lu Xiangdong spread his hands. "You tore up the agreement. I have to make up another one."

Su Mianmian jumped down from the sofa and pushed him. "Don't you have ears? I already said that I won't get a divorce. If you want a divorce, you can. After the agreement between us is over. Or I can take the agreement and sue you until you go to jail."

Lu Xiangdong lowered his head and looked at her coldly. Without any warning, he pulled her into his arms. He pinched her chin and stared at her with a burning gaze. He wanted to melt her whole body.

"Are you in love with me? Is that why you don't want a divorce?"

Su Mianmian bit her lip. She raised her foot and stepped hard on his foot.

"I do like you. I like your money. You're the young master of The NEPC International Airlines. My family is rich, and I'm enjoying life with you. If I divorce you, I won't get anything. If it were any other woman, she wouldn't get a divorce, and I'm no exception!"

Lu Xiangdong snorted. He didn't think that she was short of money. Her salary as a Stewardess was enough to support herself. Moreover, she wasn't a vain woman. Her story was not reliable.

"I'm shocked to hear you lie."

"Everything I said is true."

He pondered for a moment, but he was still very determined.

"Su Mianmian, I have to divorce you. If you know what's good for you, you should sign that agreement. It's good for you and me."

If she didn't like him, she would definitely agree to divorce him. But the problem was that she liked him now. It was cause her a lot of pain to divorce him.

"Are you sure you want a divorce?"

"Yes." He thought the matter was over, but she suddenly made a request. She said that if he agreed, she would agree to divorce him.

"Have one last dinner with me. We'll officially divorce tomorrow." Her request wasn't too much.

Lu Xiangdong felt that he owed her, so he agreed to her request.

"I don't know how to cook. Wait for me for about ten minutes. I'll go out and buy lunch," she said as she walked out.

Lu Xiangdong wanted to stop her to ask for takeout instead, but she had already run out.

Su Mianmian ran without letting herself stop. She was worried that once she stopped, she would burst into tears. Her tears were already falling.

He didn't know what this last dinner meant, she had to bet everything on it. Regardless of whether there was a future with him, she did not think she would regret her decision today.

She packed two boxed lunches in the restaurant. On the way, she passed by a supermarket. She bought a bag of things and poured them into the boxed lunches.

Lu Xiangdong was sitting on the living room sofa watching TV when he heard the door open. She was back.

He saw Su Mianmian carrying a bag and changing into slippers at the door. He walked towards her.

"What did you buy?"

"Barbecued rice." She raised her head and smiled.

Lu Xiangdong followed her to the table. She opened the bag, took out the two boxes from inside, and passed him his box.

"It looks pretty good. Su Chengwu has improved. At least you didn't pack me hotpot or skewers!" Lu Xiangdong rarely joked with her. He was trying to liven up the atmosphere. He didn't want to divorce Su Mianmian, but the current situation was out of his control. If he didn't divorce her, Su Mianmian might get caught in his mess. He didn't want her to suffer with him.

Su Mianmian pouted. "This is your last benefit. Enjoy it."

Lu Xiangdong put down his spoon and looked up at her as if he had something to say to her. When she raised her head, he quickly grabbed his spoon again to eat.

"Do you have something to say to me? Are you reluctant to leave me?" Su Mianmian asked jokingly.

He forced a smile. "So much nonsense. Who would be reluctant to leave you? Eat your food."

Su Mianmian wanted to get something out of him, but his mouth was even tighter than a clam shell. She could not get anything out of him.

Lu Xiangdong took a bite of the rice. It tasted a little strange. "Do you think that the rice tastes a little strange?"

Su Mianmian looked at the boxed rice and shook her head. "No, it's probably because it's your first time eating it. I think that it tastes pretty good!" After saying that, she stuffed the rice into her mouth, hoping she wouldn't choke on it.

Lu Xiangdong felt that the taste was not authentic. After a few bites, he had to sip some mineral water.

"Take your time to eat. I can't eat anymore."

Su Mianmian pointed at his boxed lunch and shouted, "It's shameful to waste it. You can only leave after you've eaten all of it."

Lu Xiangdong felt that she was a little abnormal today.

"Why are you so agitated? Could it be that there's something wrong with the rice?" He suspiciously moved the bottle away from his mouth and looked at her.

Su Mianmian quickly covered her mouth and shook her head guiltily.

"No, there's nothing wrong with the rice."

Lu Xiangdong suddenly felt light-headed and his entire body became hot. He reached out to cover his forehead and shook his head again. He asked uncertainly, "Did you put something in this rice?"

Su Mianmian looked nervous. She observed his reaction. Had the drugs already taken effect? It couldn't happen this fast, right?

"Su Mianmian, what did you put in the rice? Why is my body suddenly hot?" Lu Xiangdong felt uncomfortable and he scratched his head. A wave of heat was rushing straight to his head. He felt his bottom half reacting, too.

Su Mianmian leaned towards him. She chuckled, "Captain Lu, do you feel like your mouth is dry and your tongue is parched? Your whole body is burning up like an ant is gnawing on it?"

Lu Xiangdong nodded. "How do you know? Damn it, what did you give me?"

"Just a little aphrodisiac." She made a gesture shamelessly.

Lu Xiangdong's face turned green- she had actually drugged him! Did she want to live?

"Su Mianmian, how could you use such a method to trick me into taking the bait. Aren't you afraid that I'll abandon you? After I take you, I'll throw you away like trash?"

Su Mianmian lowered her eyes. She had thought about the consequences. If she really was getting a divorce, she had to get some compensation from him. His figure was extremely good. If she gave him her first time, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage.

"Don't come to conclusions so quickly." Su Mianmian squatted in front of him. She saw him look at her in pain, and waited for him to pounce on her.

But Lu Xiangdong's will was strong. He endured it and didn't pounce on her.

Su Mianmian could not help but frown. He would rather endure than have her?

"Su Mianmian, get out of my way." Lu Xiangdong used his last shred of rationality to not touch her. If she did not leave now, he was really worried that he would not be able to endure this for much longer.

Su Mianmian knew that he was trying his best to endure. She smiled and took off her coat. Then, she pulled her skirt down and walked towards him slowly.

Lu Xiangdong's throat tightened and his blood vessels almost exploded. D*mn it, she was hooking him. She was luring him. No matter how strong his willpower was, the sight of her nakedness meant he couldn't stand the temptation. When she was close to him, he pulled her into his embrace and flipped her over, pressing her onto the ground.

Although it was a little painful, Su Mianmian smiled. "Captain Lu, your willpower isn't that strong either."

"This is the result of you provoking me. Su Mianmian, that time when you were drunk, I didn't want to take advantage of your situation, so I let you go. But today, you brought it on yourself."
