Qiao Yin replied, “I just think it’s taking too long.”

Ever since he proposed divorce, every second of her love for him was agony.

“How long have you liked me? Don’t lie to me, tell the truth.”

Qiao Yin was silent for a long time before she finally managed to speak, “Five years, Lu Lingche, it’s been five years.”

Lu Lingche was stunned.

Five years…

That meant that she actually liked him since the moment they met.

Both pain and sweetness surged forth from the bottom of his heart, intertwining and giving him a taste of the indescribable flavor of love.

Unable to contain his feelings, he lowered his head and placed a kiss on her lips.

She in his arms struggled, resisting, even biting his lip in her haste, but he did not break the kiss.

Only when he had kissed her until she whimpered and cried, did he stop.

His voice was gentle, “How about from now on, I love you instead? You’ve liked me for five years, I will repay you ten times that, starting by liking you for fifty years, okay?”

Qiao Yin lay on him, unable to stop her tears.

Long held back grievances and pain could not find an outlet. She used not to cry for fear of losing his respect, for fear of his mockery. Now, she no longer cared about what he thought.

Only after crying her fill did she speak up, “I don’t need your love, nor do I need you to repay anything. From now on, you and I are enemies.”

“How did we become enemies again?”

“Your mother hired someone to kill me, I almost died, aren’t we enemies?”

“What if I told you that she’s not my mother?”

“What did you say?!”

Qiao Yin was so astonished that she forgot to wipe her tears, staring wide-eyed at Lu Lingche, “Are you so desperate to deceive me that you even deny your own mother? Are you going to obliterate the last bit of humanity in you?”

Lu Lingche lifted his hand to gently wipe her tears, “Over two months ago, Lan Ruikang’s lover died in a car accident, you should remember this, right?”

Of course, Qiao Yin remembered.

After all, the car accident of Lan Ruikang’s lover took place just one day before her own.

She was fortunate, with Director Song and Song Zhu by her side, she received immediate treatment and was quickly rushed to the hospital, thus saving her life.

But Lan Ruikang’s lover wasn’t as lucky, due to delayed rescue, she quickly died after being admitted to the hospital.

All of this was reported in the news at that time.

Qiao Yin furrowed her eyebrows, “What exactly are you trying to say? Weren’t we talking about your mother? How did Lan Ruikang’s lover come into this?”

“Lan Ruikang suspected that his lover’s car accident was not an accident at all, but man-made. So he asked me to help capture the hit-and-run driver to confirm his suspicion and find the real murderer who killed his lover.”

“And then? Did you help him?”

“Yes, I did, because he offered me an irresistible deal.”

“What deal?”

“He told me that he had a crucial secret about my eldest brother, and this secret was also very important to me. Regardless of whether what Lan Ruikang said was true or false, as long as it concerned my elder brother, there was no way I could ignore it, so I helped.”

Qiao Yin looked at him with a complicated expression, he cared about anything related to his elder brother, his care surpassed everything else, including himself.

She never really understood. Although his eldest brother was indeed kind to him, he didn’t seem to be so kind as to warrant Lu Lingche’s all-out efforts, did he?

However, Lu Shengqing was his vulnerability, so even if Qiao Yin had doubts, she never dared to ask.

“Finding that hit-and-run driver indeed cost me a lot of manpower and resources, but thankfully, Lan Ruikang didn’t lie to me, he indeed had a secret about my elder brother.”
