Chapter 534 - 530: I Don’t Dare (10th Update)
Hearing Lu Tianxing say this, Yue Tingting’s parents sighed and said, "Ah, then there’s no other choice, Tianxing, we really troubled you this time. How much money will the treatment cost? Just let me know, even if I have to sell everything I have, I will pay for it."
"Uncle, don’t worry about it, Tingting is my sister, and it’s my duty to help her. Rest assured, our company will cover all the expenses for Tingting’s treatment this time, you don’t have to worry about it."
Lu Tianxing comforted them, "Uncle and Auntie, it’s getting late, I should head back now. When Tingting is about to leave Modu, give me a call, and I’ll come to see her off."
"Okay, please thank your company’s boss for me; we’ve really inconvenienced them."
Yue Tingting’s father nodded and said earnestly to Lu Tianxing, "Tianxing, we’ve troubled you a lot with Tingting’s matter. If one day we get old and can’t take care of her, Tingting will be in your hands. Please take good care of her. She had a tough time following us around when she was young; you must not let her down."
Lu Tianxing, feeling a mix of amusement and helplessness, didn’t know what to do but simply nodded with an earnest smile. At this point, any explanation would seem superfluous and might only lead to more trouble.
After saying goodbye to the elderly couple who saw him as a son-in-law, Lu Tianxing could not help but bitterly smile again and again. If they knew he was already married and still planning to "hook up" with their daughter, they probably wouldn’t hesitate to go home, grab a kitchen knife, and chop him up to feed to the dogs.
When Lu Tianxing returned to the Ziyuan District, it was already past nine in the evening, yet the lights were still on in Bai Zhiqing’s villa.
Lu Tianxing walked up the stairs, gently opened the door, and found Bai Zhiqing wearing a bathrobe, sitting on the couch, her eyes fixed on the television.
