Chapter 814: Fight Against Crime
??
Qiao Xi said indifferently, “I did slap Lu Kang twice to vent my anger, but the person who beat him up is Gu Zheng. I’m just a weak girl, so how could I be so fierce?”
“Mr. Lu Kang is also unlucky. When he entered the lounge, he happened to meet Gu Zheng and was taken down as soon as he entered! Young Master Lu, I heard that this person has evil intentions. He’s committed crimes in Lu Corporation and harmed many young ladies. We beat him up to fight against crime. What do you think?”
When Lu Kang heard this, he was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. He roared with a ferocious expression and struggled violently. Then, he lost his balance and fell to the floor. The blood on his body seeped out as he struggled, dripping onto the floor. At this moment, he was like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered.
The socialites had never seen such a bloody scene before. They all covered their noses and took a few steps back. They did not expect Gu Zheng, who usually looked very gentlemanly, to be so vicious.
If they had not barged in to catch them in the act, Lu Kang might have been beaten to death by Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng’s expression was indifferent as he blocked Qiao Xi behind him. His eyes were filled with icy-cold killing intent, causing everyone present to lower their heads in fear. No one dared to make a sound.
After a moment of silence, the man’s thin lips parted slightly. “This is just a warning. Whoever dares to bully Mrs. Gu again will definitely suffer a worse outcome than this man.”
With that, Gu Zheng’s gaze landed on Lu Yan and Xia Mengyan. Xia Mengyan was so scared that her entire body trembled as she hurriedly lowered her head.
At this moment, Lu Kang was extremely weak. The wounds all over his body were aching. He lay on the floor and barely managed to breathe, but no one dared to untie him.
Gu Zheng glanced at Lu Kang, whose eyes were filled with coldness. He instructed, “Clean this up. Let’s go.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Qiao Xi along and was about to leave, but Qiao Xi had an unwilling expression. “I still want the Lu family to apologize to me! They clearly know that I’m a perfume designer, so they got someone to frame me. I’m not satisfied that we only managed to deal with Lu Kang this time.”
Lu Yan looked at the man who was breathing weakly on the floor. The veins on his forehead twitched. ‘You’re still not satisfied? What else do you want?’
Lu Kang was filled with resentment. He had clearly seen the note and came to have an affair with Qiao Xi. As soon as he entered, he was inexplicably beaten up. Hence, when Gu Zheng’s subordinates entered and lifted him up, he used all his strength to break free and crawl toward Xia Mengyan. “Miss Xia, save me!”
Lu Yan’s eyes darkened as he raised his leg and kicked Lu Kang’s chest.
This kick made everyone even more puzzled. They all looked at Lu Yan and Xia Mengyan suspiciously.
Xia Mengyan’s face was pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat. Lu Kang, that piece of trash, did not sleep with Qiao Xi but dragged her down with him. He was really an idiot!
Qiao Xi sneered. “Miss Xia, can you explain why Mr. Lu Kang asked you for help? Could it be that you two are very close? Or did you give him the note?”
The corners of Xia Mengyan’s mouth twitched slightly, then her eyes turned red. She said aggrievedly, “Xi Xi, I don’t know why he asked me for help. We’re just colleagues. We’ve exchanged a few words in the company before, but we’re not even friends.”
At this moment, Lu Kang was completely sober. He shouted unwillingly, “I found the note on the coffee table as soon as you left. Who else could it be?”
Xia Mengyan gasped, and her voice trembled slightly. “Mr. Lu Kang, are you saying that I left you the note? Xi Xi is my cousin. I wouldn’t do such a thing. Moreover, how could I be sure that Xi Xi would definitely go to Room 109?”
Qiao Xi sneered in her heart. Xia Mengyan was quite calm. It was a pity that she was not an actress.
Xia Mengyan frowned and said thoughtfully, “Xi Xi, I heard that Tang Lingyun splashed a glass of wine on you. That’s why you went to 109 to change. If you want to suspect someone, you should suspect her! She led you to the lounge and left a note for Lu Kang to frame you.
“Moreover, she even flared up at me just now. Could it be that she deliberately set up a trap to take revenge on us sisters? No matter what, this has nothing to do with me. Don’t listen to Lu Kang’s one-sided story.”
“Miss Xia, you’re right!” Qiao Xi said with a smile, “In that case, I’ll leave Lu Kang to you, Young Master Lu. If the results are unsatisfactory, then I’ll have reason to suspect the Lu family.”
“Although Tang Lingyun and I have a grudge, how could she be sure that I’d come to 109? Perhaps only the Lu family can explain this clearly.”
