CHAPTER 489: CHAPTER 489: ARE LOBSTERS DELICIOUS?

Yo!

Throughout the ordeal, Lu Jing remained utterly composed, finding these threats laughable to the extreme.

Then, he casually pointed towards the ceiling in the corner of the wall:

"See that? Surveillance!"

Hiss!

Upon hearing this, the agent’s face turned ashen.

They had actually checked the room earlier and didn’t see any cameras.

But who could have known that the hotel was equipped with the latest hidden cameras which, unless you specifically searched for them, were nearly impossible to find.

After all, who knows what people might do once the private room doors are shut?

If there were any illegal activities, the owner would surely be in trouble.

And the reason why Lu Jing knew so well was because this hotel was owned by the Jiang Family.

One tends to know a thing or two about their own family business, after all.

Otherwise, just going straight to a meeting with someone, what if the other party had some sneaky tricks?

Two young girls would stand no chance at all.

Fortunately, Miss Qu chose a place that wasn’t somebody else’s turf.

Pfft~

Once again, thank you to the major financial contributor to our family business’s GDP.

"Miss Qu, couldn’t you have fancied something else? Why fixate on someone else’s partner so brazenly? Is this the kind of upbringing the Qu Family provides?"

Hiss, how could Qu Zhi tolerate such an affront?

She had never been treated this way before and her proud ego was severely bruised.

"Bitch, I’m going to fight you!"

The next second, if Lu Jing hadn’t dodged quickly, he would have actually been scratched across the face.

Given those long, polished nails, a scar would have been inevitable.

How malicious can someone’s heart be?

Purposefully aiming to disfigure others, such a viperous woman.

"Damn it, dare to lay hands on my sister, are you tired of living or what?"

Miss Dai was unable to contain herself any longer and was about to engage.

But she was stopped by Lu Jing:

"Awan, don’t be impulsive."

If they retaliated, the nature of the incident would change, and it would be defined as mutual assault by the police.

However, if they did not retaliate, the Lu Group’s lawyers would have all kinds of ways to send the girl in for a sobering reflection.

Even if it might be just 15 days, Lu Jing was more than happy with that.

However, at this moment, someone violently kicked open the door of the private room.

The noise startled everyone inside.

Lu Jing turned his head to look and his expression instantly changed.

Why was this person here?

And why so timely?

Cough cough.

Who else could it be storming in but Captain Jiang himself?

No one else would have caused Lu Jing to react so strongly.

Jiang Ye didn’t say much but directed a sharp gaze at the woman hiding behind her friend:

Good, she knows fear.

The next instant, he shifted his gaze to Qu Zhi, and his eyes filled with an intimidating murderous intent.

Qu Zhi’s mouth opened and closed several times, but she failed to utter a sound.

At that moment, the hotel manager rushed over:

"Young Master Jiang, Young Madam."

"Where’s the police you were supposed to call?"

"They’ve been called, they’ll be here any moment."

Hearing that the police were indeed on their way, Qu Zhi panicked, and her agent and assistant were even more distressed.

After all, Qu Zhi had the Qu Family backing her, while they were just ordinary employees with no such support, fearful of getting implicated.

But with the current frozen atmosphere, no one even attempted to speak.

Finally, it was Jiang Ye who took steps towards Lu Jing.

Lu Jing was abruptly pushed by her friend, directly into the man’s arms.

Oh.

"Was the lobster good?"

Cough cough cough.

"It was... alright, I guess."

"Just alright? You seemed to be enjoying it quite a lot."
