Chapter 166 - 166: Why Should I Be Polite to Her?
Qiao Yin’s eyes turned red uncontrollably, “Lu Lingche, I get that you care about her, but you have no right to demand that I tolerate her unconditionally!”
“At the very least, you shouldn’t keep provoking her! You know what she’s going through right now, can you bear the responsibility if she miscarries because of your provocations?”
Qiao Yin was forced to take two steps back under his intense pressure.
She clenched her hands tightly together, “I’ve said it before, keep her in check and stop annoying me. I’m not a clay doll to be messed with. If she’s looking for trouble, I won’t spare her!”
“She is pregnant! What’s wrong in being nice to her?”
“So what if she’s pregnant? Is it such a great and honorable thing for her to be pregnant with your child? Does being pregnant give her the right to disgust me? Why should I be nice to her?”
“What about my mother then? What have you done to her?”
“She hit me once, I pricked her twice with my needles, it’s a fair exchange. She’s fine, just dealing with a bit of itchiness and refusing to get up from the floor, she just wants to victimize me. But I want you all to understand, I am not someone you can take advantage of, think about the consequences if you want to bully me!”
Qiao Yin stood against them all without backing down, a mocking smile on her lips, “Or do you all think I deserve to be mistreated, that I should bear your insults and beatings without a word, is that what fits your narrative?”
Lu Lingche didn’t respond this time, as he recalled the bloody image of Qiao Yin being whipped by his mother.
If what Qiao Yin said was true, then this would be the third time his mother had hit her.
It was only normal for her to lose her temper.
Seeing him silent, Qiao Yin finally reined in her emotions and turned to leave.
But she barely took a step before Lu Lingche grabbed her wrist.
She turned to look at him coldly, “What else do you want?”
“Remove the needles from my mother’s hand.”
“And if I don’t?”
“Then I won’t let you leave.”
Qiao Yin shook off his hand, walked over to Madam Lu and removed the two long silver needles from her arm.
Madam Lu’s arm instantly stopped itching, but she continued to scratch it frantically.
Qiao Yin glanced at her, then strode out of the room.
Lu Lingche didn’t stop her this time.
Once she left, Lu Lingche’s icy gaze fell upon Lan Yuyi, “The ambulance is here, why aren’t you going to the hospital?”
Lan Yuyi sobbed, “I wanted to wait for you. I feel scared without you.”
“I’m not a doctor, me being here won’t be of any real help. Also, if it’s not serious next time, don’t have the bodyguards pass on a message that you’re in a critical condition, that’s a very serious claim.”
Lan Yuyi shrank back, realizing she had irritated him again.
Lu Lingche addressed then medical personnel, “Take her to the hospital for a thorough check-up.”
The medical personnel immediately loaded her into the ambulance.
Lan Yuyi extended her hand towards Lu Lingche in a pitiful manner, “Lingche, can you come with me? I’m not feeling well and I’m scared.”
“I’ll come with you, but the ambulance can’t fit too many people, so I’ll follow in the car.”
Lan Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of how furious he was, he still cared about her and wanted to accompany her.
As long as she could protect the child in her belly, she could control him.
Lu Lingche instructed his bodyguards, “Help my mother into the ambulance as well, have her thoroughly checked.”
Madam Lu’s face was deathly pale, she was almost tormented to death by Qiao Yin’s needles, and now, she found herself so weak that she could hardly utter a word to rebuke him for letting Qiao Yin go so easily.
The hatred for Qiao Yin in her heart had reached its peak, she wished she could tear Qiao Yin to pieces..
