"It's the company I keep."
What does she mean the company she keeps? She was obviously accusing him and his brother falsely.
He looked at her as if she were an alien from space. "Sister-in-law, you can't be like this. Do you really want me dead? What kind of grudge did we have in our past lifetime?"
Both choices were terribly wrong for him. If he helped his sister-in-law do something behind his brother's back, he might have a fall out with his brother. But if she was really serious about telling on him to Xu Liaowen, although he no longer had feelings for Mrs. Xu, it would destroy all those years of friendship and make things extremely awkward among the three of them.
"So, what do you think? You have ten minutes to decide."
Lu Shaoting looked at her in disdain. "Thanks but no thanks, I don't need them. I'll help you but you must not get hurt. If anything happened to you, I would be burried with you."
