Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 124 - 272: This - Is Free

Han Xiao glanced at his awkward self, wearing only briefs, and grabbed the blanket from Lu Qi’s hands, wrapping it around his lower body. Facing Gu Xiaoqing half-naked was truly indecent. If Fang Shaohan had seen this, wouldn’t he be doomed?

"Why are you so angry? I haven’t provoked you."

Han Xiao innocently put on his most pitiful look, desperately trying to win sympathy.

Gu Xiaoqing’s demeanor today was not like her usual joking manner; she looked ferocious, as if she meant business.

"Lu Qi, aren’t you taking him away? Otherwise, it might be another case of ’feigned retreat for the sake of seizing an advantage.’ Hurry up, I need to clean up here, moving in, you know it’s inappropriate for unmarried men and women to live together, right? If you don’t, I don’t mind calling Fang Shaohan to teach you."

Gu Xiaoqing was determined a hundred times over.

This can’t go on. I’m not afraid of being misunderstood, but if it involves my family, then it’s a big deal.

It’s unnecessary.

Gu Xiaoqing protects her family more intensely than anything else. Anyone who dares to harm her family or shows even a hint of adverse influence, she will not let them off.

Han Xiao, lifted out by Lu Qi, argued with extreme dissatisfaction: "Gu Xiaoqing, you’re so unreasonable. I’ve helped you quite a bit, and this is how you treat your benefactor, kicking me out. Unbelievable that you’d think of this. You’re my sister-in-law, and this is how you treat Fang Shaohan’s friend." He was eager to take a bite out of Gu Xiaoqing.

In his view, Gu Xiaoqing was trying to burn the bridge after crossing it.

Gu Xiaoqing pointed at the door and said mercilessly, "You have the nerve to speak? Because of you, I’ve been labeled a vixen. Can this ’benefactor’ rhetoric wipe that out? Before expecting anyone to repay you, consider whether your demands will cause trouble for them. I don’t want to risk everything, Young Master Han, I’m not playing with you anymore. If you have leisure time, go play with those brothers of yours. They are powerful and wealthy and have no worries about how they play.

I’m just a woman from an insignificant family, not that capable. Your family could crush us with a flick of a finger. I beg you, please, have mercy and leave me alone."

Lu Qi dragged Han Xiao out the door, and Gu Xiaoqing slammed it shut with a bang.

Lu Qi and Han Xiao stared at the tightly closed door, and Han Xiao tightly wrapped the blanket around himself, feeling it was damaging to his renowned Young Master Han’s reputation.

But who in there is Gu Xiaoqing? No matter how temperamental Han Xiao was, he knew Gu Xiaoqing was someone he couldn’t mess with. If he didn’t want to be dealt with by the boss, it was best to behave himself.

"What’s up with Gu Xiaoqing going crazy?"

Being pulled off the bed out of nowhere, and embarrassingly standing outside the door, it hadn’t even been five minutes. His mind was in a haze, unclear about how he got kicked out by Gu Xiaoqing.

Lu Qi bent down to pick up the suitcase on the ground, glanced at the door, "You don’t understand, how would I know? Not leaving? Do you want to showcase your muscles to those upstairs and downstairs?"

Lu Qi carried the suitcase downstairs, and Han Xiao quickly chased after him, utterly at a loss.

Once inside the car, Han Xiao changed into clothes and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Qi started the car and asked Han Xiao, "Where are you going?"

Han Xiao frowned and complained irritably, "Where else can I go? Of course to your place. Are you thinking of ditching me too? Gu Xiaoqing, just wait and see. You’re burning bridges too soon. Gu Xiaoqing hasn’t kicked me out for so long, why turn against me so ruthlessly today?

Something’s definitely up!"

Han Xiao’s mind finally started working normally, returning to a rational thought process.

Lu Qi pursed his lips and scoffed, "Do I even need to say? Your mom surely came to visit. With her formidable prowess and the way your Han Family does things, it must have started with a pile of cash tossed to kill. If that doesn’t do it, then some harsh words that could destroy someone’s family.

Gu Xiaoqing was likely intimidated by your mom, so she willingly let you, this guy even a prince among men, go, allowing you to leave gracefully without a trace."

That he couldn’t figure this out, Lu Qi was truly amazed by Han Xiao’s brain.

The car started moving.

Han Xiao turned his head sharply, looking at Lu Qi, "No wonder Gu Xiaoqing was as fierce as if she had swallowed a bomb today. She’s blatantly taking out her anger. Besides, what’s she afraid of? As long as I’m here, my mom won’t just easily get her hands on this place."

"Gu Xiaoqing is not you. Your mom loves you dearly, but when it comes to a vixen seemingly luring her son away from his responsibilities, she’s not going to show mercy, might even go all out to make trouble for her. Gu Xiaoqing has a bit of sense, kicking out you, a pest. Otherwise, she’d just be waiting for big trouble at home."

Lu Qi said sympathetically.

Han Xiao confusedly pursued, "Hey, hey, whose side are you on? A while ago, you were full of sarcastic doubts about our relationship, never believing it, and now you’re siding with Gu Xiaoqing and speaking up for her. Your change of heart is puzzling."

Lu Qi snorted coldly, "You think I’m an idiot like you? I’ve known for a while Gu Xiaoqing wouldn’t fancy you. You’re not her type at all. Unfortunately, the boss instructed that all men around Gu Xiaoqing be cleared, so I did what I had to. But as to the thickness of your skin, I’ve witnessed it abundantly.

After all my speeches, it’s still Auntie who made a swift victory, demonstrating the might of the seasoned."

"Ah, did you go tell my mom tales about me, prompting her to mobilize and show up here? You’re ruthless. But you don’t understand my mom well. Originally, this wasn’t a big deal, but your words would’ve convinced her. If she really takes action against Gu Xiaoqing’s family business, just you wait for Fang Shaohan to beat you up."

Han Xiao looked at Lu Qi mournfully.

The car abruptly braked to a stop.

Lu Qi pondered for three seconds, then hit the gas, the car speeding off.

"Hey, hey, my head, is this murder or driving? Who drives like this?"

Han Xiao’s nagging never stopped during the ride.

Along with Han Xiao’s voice came Lu Qi’s helpless pleas.

"When we see Auntie later, you better explain that there’s truly nothing between you and Gu Xiaoqing. I don’t want to be beaten to death by Fang Shaohan. You know how ruthless he can be. If we’re brothers, you have to help me out. Otherwise, I’ll have to tell the boss how you were parading around in shorts in front of Gu Xiaoqing. Let’s see what the boss does then."

That’s not a plea, it’s both a threat and intimidation!
