Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 1023 - 1920: Leng Shuangshuang, You Must Be Crazy!

(The Chapter number in this section was wrong; it should be Chapter 1020. The content is correct though. Oh, I’ll fix it next week~~~)

"But..."

"Stop hesitating, big brother. Let’s not get involved in this womanly business. It’s not worth hiding for a lifetime for this amount of money."

Leng Shuangshuang was close to them, so she heard everything clearly, but she didn’t dare let down her guard.

Han Shiwen noticed the two men were speaking quietly and had a bad feeling. She shouted, "Why are you two not acting yet? Someone will be here soon, hurry up!"

However, the two men didn’t move.

Big Beard said to Han Shiwen, "Miss Han, forget the money. Find someone else."

"You...!" Han Shiwen was furious and shouted, "Don’t forget you two are under my thumb!"

The atmosphere, which had just eased, sank back into a stalemate with her words.

Leng Shuangshuang made up her mind and suddenly sneered, "If you trust her, don’t blame me for not warning you. I have the Lu Family’s grandchild in me. If anything happens to me..."

She didn’t finish, the implication was clear.

"What? You’re carrying Lu Jincheng’s child? Hahaha...Leng Shuangshuang, you must be mad! Everybody in the Empire knows Lu Jincheng doesn’t keep women around, let alone let them get close. Aren’t you afraid of biting your tongue with such claims?"

Despite Han Shiwen’s words, her eyes involuntarily glanced at Shuang’er’s stomach. Perhaps it was an illusion, but Han Shiwen did feel that Shuang’er’s belly looked a bit puffed.

Leng Shuangshuang had studied psychology, and seeing Han Shiwen’s gaze, she guessed her thoughts. She said to the two big men, "You better go. Lu Jincheng will be here soon. If he sees you with Miss Han, all three of you won’t have a good time."

The two men looked at Shuang’er, then at Han Shiwen, finally the tall man cursed under his breath, saying, "Let’s go! Damn it, never taking jobs from women again!"

"Hey~ hey~ don’t go!"

No matter how Han Shiwen shouted behind them, the two men didn’t stop and quickly ran out of sight.

Only Han Shiwen and Leng Shuangshuang were left in the alley.

Shuang’er glanced at the sky, knowing there would be more people in the alley at this time. She said to Han Shiwen, "Miss Han, I regret that you didn’t succeed in getting engaged to Lu Jincheng, but you should be looking for him, not me."

Han Shiwen almost laughed; if she could go find Lu Jincheng to vent, would she even appear here?

She looked at the increasingly crowded alley entrance and walked toward Shuang’er.

Seeing this, Shuang’er also retreated towards the alley entrance; for every step Han Shiwen took, she would step back.

Because she was walking backward and kept staring at Han Shiwen, just as she was nearing the alley entrance, she stumbled over something, lost her balance, and fell straight to the ground.

The sharp pain in her hip made Shuang’er’s head buzz, and then she saw Han Shiwen standing in front of her, looking down.

"Leng Shuangshuang, I’ve had the cameras here dealt with. Even if I kill you now, I can get away with it!" As she spoke, she laughed sinisterly.

Fearing Han Shiwen might indeed do something to her, Shuang’er forced herself to stand, despite feeling dizzy. She barely stood straight when she suddenly swayed, ready to fall again.
