Chapter 78
"If you are not qualified for this position, leave as soon as possible."
After Lu Jingchi said this, he hung up the phone and turned his head to look at Jiang Lan.
He didn't speak, his dark pupils stared at her silently, waiting for her to speak.
Jiang Lan struggled a few times, raised his hand and gestured: Can Grandma Zhang stay?
"Is this why you came to me?"
Jiang Lan lowered her head, her expression covered by her loose hair.
She continued to sign: Don't you remember her?
Lu Jingchi's eyes did not waver, and he said quietly: "What if you remember it, but what if you don't remember it? Do I have to provide for all the servants of the Lu family to provide for them until they die?"
His ruthless words pierced Jiang Lan's heart.
She slowly raised her head and met the man's cold eyes. For the first time, Jiang Lan suspected that this man was heartless.
Lu Jingchi came to her slowly and leaned closer to her, "It's okay if you want her to stay, as long as you cut off contact with Si Ning."
Jiang Lan was slightly startled.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was an endless coldness in his eyes, "She or Si Ning, you choose one."
No wonder he was so quiet along the way and didn't get angry. It turned out that he was waiting here.
He threw her an unsolvable problem, and she couldn't make the right choice no matter what.
Lu Jingchi stared into her clear eyes, quietly waiting for her to make a choice.
The two looked at each other silently, and time passed slowly in silence.
Jiang Lan raised her finger and asked him one stroke at a time: Would you do the same to Xia Yan?
His eyes fell on her fingers, darkened a bit, and then looked at her face again.
"Are you questioning me?"
Jiang Lan pursed her lips, and there was a rare hint of stubbornness on her fair and clear face.
Jiang Lan: I have never asked you for anything, just this once, not even once?
Lu Jingchi held her gesturing fingers and stopped her movement. He whispered two words: "No."
At the end, he added, "Only this time it won't work."
Jiang Lan tugged at the corners of her dry mouth. Only this time, she wanted to do it just once.
"You can't be too greedy." He clamped her hands and didn't give her a chance to communicate. His voice was as low as before, "Since it's so difficult for you to choose, why don't I help you choose."
Jiang Lan opened her eyes wide and tried to break away from Lu Jingchi.
But her struggle only caused the man to pull her tighter, and her wrists were pinched painfully.
In Jiang Lan's desperation, she opened her mouth and tried to make a sound, but she couldn't pronounce a single syllable.
Lu Jingchi's eyes turned cold. He grabbed her hands and pressed her to the edge of the desk.
The edge of the table pressed against her waist, and she straightened her body, feeling a familiar pain in her lower abdomen again.
Her only option at the moment was to open her mouth and bite him.
But the next second, he grabbed Jiang Lan's chin and pinned her down on the table.
He held her wrists with one hand and lifted her legs with the other. He leaned over and put all his weight on her.
"Don't let me touch you?" The two of them were so close that the man's breath hit them.
Jiang Lan felt cramps in his lower abdomen, as if his internal organs were stretched straight and might be torn apart at any time.
Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her lips were opened and closed silently.
She said: No...
