7 Big Bun Wants To Pay With His Body

Lu Tingxiao carefully sized up the woman on the hospital bed, scrutinizing her expression to see if it was truly real or fake.

After a long time, he finally believed that she had not known about Little Treasure's identity and circumstances. Only then did he calmly say, "State your request."

"Ah, what request?" Ning Xi did not understand at all what he meant by those three words.

"What my brother is saying is that he's extremely grateful to you for saving Little Treasure, so he's asking if you have any requests!" Lu Jingli looked at her as though to say, you've hit the jackpot.

Ning Xi's brain started to turn, and she said seriously, "Actually, you don't have to thank me. I saved Little Treasure, and in turn, he also saved me. If it wasn't for Little Treasure going out to find someone, I would have still been trapped inside, this in itself, is enough payment."

Although she had indeed saved the young master, how could she dare ask for a reward? The more money one had, the more likely they would become deluded into thinking others were out to get them, especially since this was the Lu family, one of the wealthiest and most prominent families around. It would be good enough they didn't think she had planned all this. Look at how wary Lu Tingxiao was when he was constantly watching her.

To avoid potential problems, it was best to end all relations with them here.

Ning Xi thought her reply was faultless, but Lu Tingxiao still looked dissatisfied. Seeing this, she felt fearful.

Did she say something wrong? Why was this person's face so scary?

"Brother, your expression is so scary, if I didn't know you were trying to repay her kindness, I would have thought you were here for revenge!" Lu Jingli couldn't bear to see a beauty so frightened and couldn't help himself from turning to Ning Xi to say, "My brother doesn't like to owe favors, so please just ask for something! Don't be so courteous!"

Were there people who would actually force requests out of others?

Ning Xi curled her lips. "I'm not being courteous, but really, there's no need. I've only said the truth, if you don't believe me, you can check…"

"No need," Lu Tingxiao said succinctly as his expression already began looking quite impatient.

Lu Jingli opened his mouth. "We've already checked the security camera in the bar storeroom. Little Treasure ran in there himself, and as for you, the manager has already admitted to locking you in there, so don't worry. We don't suspect you of anything, and you did save Little Treasure, so just request something!"

Amazing, now we're back to where we started!

Finally, Ning Xi ran out of ideas, and under Lu Tingxiao's chilling gaze, she gave in and said, "How about… you give me money?"

Don't all rich people like to solve problems immediately with money?

Lu Tingxiao should also be the type to think the same way!

If she didn't want the money, he might even think she had other intentions. If she didn't want money, does she want him?

Right when she believed she had made the right request, Lu Tingxiao's expression turned even uglier.

Ning Xi was about to cry. Why did he have to be so taciturn? Can't you just say what you want to say? Would a few words kill you?

Lu Jingli brushed his nose and translated it. "My brother thinks that it might be a little too insulting to be giving money."

Ning Xi cried in her heart. It's fine, just use the money to insult me!!

The Lu family was too unique, she really couldn't think of a reasonable request at the moment. It was at this point in their stalemate that Lu Tingxiao opened his mouth —

"Marry me."

Ning Xi froze for a second, then began coughing heavily, almost choking herself to death on her own saliva. "Cough cough cough… wha-what did you say?"

After finally succeeding in stopping her coughs, she immediately looked at Lu Jingli.

Second Master, please translate!!!

But this time, it was not just Ning Xi who was stumped; even Lu Jingli was also dazed. "Brother, what did you mean?"
