Crossing Worlds Provocation - Chapter 50

Chapter 50: Cannot Hold It In Anymore!

After she finished her sentence, even the air became quiet.

She looked at him with a wide grin. Her smile was bright and dazzling as though she was not at all embarrassed by what she had said previously.

Lu Xiao straightened his body in a stiff manner and he tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

But his face could not help but turn slightly away as he looked out of the window.

Initially, when she started to speak, almost every single word that she said would make his body stiffen.

The more she spoke, the more obvious that it was not something he expected.

Responsible, capable, impartial and upright – Even if he did not want to admit that she was exactly describing him, her last sentence —

It was impossible for him to not understand who she was exactly talking about…!

Because he was more clear than anyone who was the one who, in the middle of the night, wore an eye-catching red dress and knocked on his room door…!

Lu Xiao looked out of the window. His curled up fist loosened and tightened, then relaxed eventually.

After repeating a few times, he turned to look in front. With a relaxed and cold tone, he said, “You’re undoubtedly a huge celebrity with much experience, any joke that you make is like a series of pretense.”

When he said this, he stopped for a moment, then turned to stare at her.

“But you should be clear that I am not someone you can toy with. Your teasing might work on another man, but it’s useless towards me.”

After he said that, his voice became even colder, “I have bandaged your hand for you. Go down, I shall buy clothes for you as repayment. After repaying you, I have to leave immediately, I still have a lot of important work to settle afterwards.”

His tone was so calm, as though the words that she said to him had no impact at all, and he even seemed to want to part with her as soon as possible.

Wenxian was speechless, “…”

She stared at him, as though what he said was within her expectations but also out of her expectations.

But this time, it was difficult to tell whether she was disappointed. Her lips moved slightly and she laughed softly, “Captain Lu is really interesting. Alright, it was me who has been bothering you.”

Then she pushed open the car door and got off.

One of her hands was injured and had just been bandaged. After bleeding so much, it should have been painful when applying the alcohol, but other than groaning softly, she did not complain at all.

Lu Xiao, “…”

He thought that she would be so delicate and pretend to be fragile, but she did not.

He thought that she would use the excuse of her injured hand to refuse to get off the car but she did not.

He thought that after he said, she would explain that she was not teasing him and not joking, but she did not.

She did not do anything…!

Lu Xiao watched her leaving back view, as she walked to find her car without turning back at all—

Hah…!

He scoffed and his lips curled into a smile of ridicule.

It was unknown whether he was mocking her or himself.

Lu Xiao took out a cigarette and lighter from the card holder beside his clutch.

With a switch, a flame appeared. He bit into the cigarette and tilted sideways to light it.

No one could tell what he was thinking.

He was smoking furiously – he sniffed the smoke in one puff, allowed it to move around in his lungs before he released it through his nose.

His eyes reflected the furiously moving flame. His fingertip heated up because of the metal on the lighter but he still did not let go.

Until—

There was a sound of a jeep’s engine turning on. His wide and sharp eyes looked over and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

One, two seconds passed.

He slowly lowered the cigarette bud and extinguished it in the ashtray in the car, allowing the ashes to become crushed to bits.

The next second.

He immediately turned off the engine, got off the car, walked hurriedly towards that jeep—!
