Chapter 17: Lu Jingqing's Two Faces

Bang—!

The abandoned factory's gate suddenly emitted a violent impact sound.

Boss Qian and the underling were startled.

Outside the factory, Lu Jingqing had gone and then returned.

Boss Qian hurried forward with an apologetic smile: 'Boss, how... ah!'

Before Boss Qian could finish speaking, Lu Jingqing had already kicked him in the chest.

Boss Qian's face changed, his expression turning flustered: 'Boss... boss, how...'

In the night, a glint of cold light flashed in Lu Jingqing's eyes: 'Who gave you the guts to touch my people?'

'Your, your people? I don't dare... I don't dare! How could I dare to touch your people?'

'Where is Su Yun Jiao!'

Upon hearing that name, Boss Qian realized that the Su Yun Jiao he had captured was actually under Lu Jingqing's protection.

'The person, the person is inside...'

Boss Qian, frightened, wet his pants.

Afraid that Lu Jingqing would shoot him dead.

Lu Jingqing glanced at Secretary Li beside him and said, 'Watch the person.'

'Yes, Boss Lu.'

Lu Jingqing strode inside.

Only to see Su Yun Jiao collapsed on the ground, with Lu Chi beside her, both unconscious.

'Jiao Jiao?'

Lu Jingqing held Su Yun Jiao completely in his arms.

Upon realizing Su Yun Jiao's forehead had been injured, Lu Jingqing's face instantly darkened: 'Who did this?'

'Not me! Not me! It was him!'

Boss Sun immediately pointed to the underling beside him.

The underling also hurriedly waved his hands: 'No, no, no, it's not me—I just thought that woman was too noisy, so I...'

Before the underling could finish, a crisp slap landed on his face.

The underling instantly dared not speak.

Secretary Li asked: 'Boss Lu, what should we do with Young Master Lu?'

'Throw him at the Lu family's gate.'

'Yes.'

Lu Jingqing lifted Su Yun Jiao from the ground, then coldly glanced at the two people lying on the ground.

'Settled.'

'Yes, Boss Lu.'

'Boss, spare my life! Spare my life, boss!'

Boss Sun's face was grim.

If he had known that Su Yun Jiao belonged to Lu Jingqing, even if given a hundred courages, he would not dare lay a hand on her.

Lu Jingqing didn't even glance at the other party before turning and getting into the car.

Inside the hospital.

Su Yun Jiao blinked open her eyes in a daze.

She only felt a severe headache, as if something had struck her heavily.

Before losing consciousness, she seemed to have heard Lu Jingqing's voice.

'Jiao Jiao.'

Beside her, Lu Jingqing's voice pulled her thoughts back.

Su Yun Jiao immediately saw Lu Jingqing beside the hospital bed.

In an instant, Su Yun Jiao instinctively stepped back.

She still remembered that voice she had heard before losing consciousness.

The man's voice was cruel and bloodthirsty, devoid of any emotion.

How could it possibly be the refined Lu Jingqing before her?

She must have misheard.

'What's wrong?'

Lu Jingqing frowned: 'Does anything else hurt?'

Looking at the refined gentleman before her, Su Yun Jiao cautiously probed: 'Brother Jingqing, how did I end up here? How did you find me?'

'Of course, it's the tracking.'

Lu Jingqing took out his phone, which clearly displayed Su Yun Jiao's location information.

'You haven't forgotten, have you? It was you who insisted on setting up the tracking on my phone.'

At that time, Su Yun Jiao said she feared being alone in danger, so she specially linked the tracking system with him.

Upon hearing this, Su Yun Jiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately it wasn't Lu Jingqing.

She had said it before—Lu Jingqing is such an honest, upright businessman; how could he possibly do that kind of murderous scheme?

This time, luckily she had been far-sighted, having pre-linked the tracking system with Lu Jingqing, which avoided the consequence of being kidnapped for ransom.

'Have the kidnappers' identities been cleared up? Who are they?'

Lu Jingqing said: "It's just that someone is eyeing the property your father left you; I'll handle this matter, so you don't need to worry."

Su Yun Jiao nodded: "All right, thank you, Brother Jingqing."

"Rest and recover well; I'll go handle your discharge procedures."

"Okay."

Su Yun Jiao obediently nodded.

When Lu Jingqing turned and left, Su Yun Jiao caught a glimpse of his back in her peripheral vision.

In that instant, Su Yun Jiao felt her blood throughout her body congeal.

It was him.

She would never mistake him.

Same leather shoes, same back view.

Lu Jingqing, he's exactly the boss the kidnappers mentioned!

After Lu Jingqing returned, he saw Su Yun Jiao's deathly pale face.

"What's wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?"

Just as Lu Jingqing was about to touch Su Yun Jiao's wound, she instinctively dodged.

Lu Jingqing's hand froze mid-air.

Su Yun Jiao barely steadied her mind and said: "Yes, it's a bit painful; better not touch it for now."

Upon hearing that, Lu Jingqing withdrew his hand: "All right, the procedures are done; I'll have Xiao Li send you back to Jingyuan."

"...... Okay."

Bullshit!

Su Yun Jiao's complexion was grim.

She had literally gone from the tiger's den into the wolf's lair.

After all this, Lu Jingqing also wants the Su family's property.

As expected, not a single good person in the Lu family.

Su Yun Jiao unconsciously bit her nails.

She needs to think of a plan.

Leave Jingyuan.

But if she leaves Jingyuan, where can she go?

In another month, it will be her coming-of-age ceremony.

She must find a backer who can guarantee her safety for this month.

She also needs the ability to oppose the Lu family; most importantly, she needs connections to invite all the prominent figures of Hai Cheng.

After such screening,

the only candidate left is Lu Jingqing.

"Since just now, what have you been scheming in that little head of yours?"

Lu Jingqing's voice sounded from beside her.

Su Yun Jiao instinctively said: "No, nothing at all; my head's been knocked silly, what could I be scheming? No!"

Su Yun Jiao spoke with firm conviction.

Damn it.

How did Lu Jingqing's brain grow like that?

Can Lu Jingqing see through her even when she doesn't speak?

Indeed, Lu Jingqing is not as simple as he appears.

Meanwhile, inside the Lu household.

"Su Yun Jiao!"

Lu Chi jerked his eyes open.

This frightened Lu Mu standing nearby.

Lu Mu hurried forward and said: "Son, what's wrong with you? Did you get your brain knocked out? Let me take a look quickly!"

"Mom?"

Lu Chi stared blankly.

He hadn't just been knocked out, had he?

How could he be at home?

"Silly son, what's going on? Mom opened the door and saw you lying at the doorway; did you get into another fight?"

Upon mentioning his lying at the doorway, Lu Chi immediately thought of Su Yun Jiao; he grabbed Lu Mu's arm and said: "Mom, Su Yun Jiao has been kidnapped! Call the police right away!"

Upon hearing that, Lu Mu's face darkened: "Kidnapped? Who kidnapped Su Yun Jiao?"

Lu Chi, face pale: "I don't know; I didn't even get a clear look before I was knocked out."

He clearly remembers that Su Yun Jiao was kidnapped once when they were children.

That time, the kidnappers not only demanded money but also threatened to kill her.

"No, we can't call the police."
