Meanwhile, in the master bedroom, Ji Qingqing had finally finished bathing. She glanced at the phone at the head of her bed. The call history indicated five unanswered calls from Lu Lixing. While she wiped her hair dry, she called him back. Then feeling a little thirsty, she went to the living room to pour herself a glass of water.
Lu Lixing and her convenient little brother were in the living room. One of them was sitting down and the other was standing up. Her gaze slightly froze. “Why have you come?” she asked, surprised.
Lu Lixing turned his gaze towards Ji Qingqing. “You said you went home so Grandpa told me to check on you and see if you need me to help you with anything.”
“There’s no need. I was just casually tidying up.” Ji Qingqing’s gaze moved from Lu Lixing to her convenient little brother who was still a little angry. “The both of you haven’t introduced yourselves, right? This is my little brother, Ji Chengxi.” Then, she turned to Ji Chengxi. “This is my boyfriend, Lu Lixing.”
“Little brother?” Li Lixing’s eyes narrowed. “Just a few moments ago, he was arrogantly claiming that he was your husband.”

Ji Chengxi hurriedly replied, “Sis… no, I didn’t… didn’t mean that. I was just casually joking.”
Ji Qingqing stepped forward, wanting to strike him. “Joking? You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting?! This is how you crack your jokes?”
Ji Chengxi got intimidated and he stumbled back a few steps.
“Don’t bother about him.” Ji Qingqing wasn’t really thinking about hitting him. She just wanted to scare him a little.
Lu Lixing nodded his head. “I didn’t. Had I guessed earlier that he was your little brother, then I wouldn’t have let him be this impudent. But regarding the wedding, he says that he doesn’t agree with it.”
“Right!” When that matter was mentioned, Ji Chengxi became serious. “Sis, you’ve only been together with him for how long? During that two months time, you also went to the filming studio to film. You’ve only been together for less than a month. How could you marry a man that you’ve just known for less than a month?”
Ji Qingqing was astonished. Is Ji Chengxi not scared of getting hit for saying such things? And Lu Lixing to her surprise was unfazed by his words.
“Ji Chengxi, that’s my personal affair. Also, saying that in front of him, are you not scared of getting hit?”
Like a warrior who would break his wrist decisively, Ji Chengxi exclaimed, “I’m not scared! Though honest advice is unpleasant to hear, Sis, you’re now blinded by love. As a person involved, you are befuddled, not thinking straight. But me, this onlooker must definitely make you come round!”
“If that’s what you think, then do you still want to resolve the Internet loan matter?”
“Sis, I’m doing this for your own good! You can’t use that to threaten me. You promised that you would help me resolve the Internet loan matter.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Lixing asked, “What Internet loan?”
Ji Qingqing explained, “He went online to borrow some money and after a couple of months of compound interest, it ended up snowballing into more than 3 million yuan. The people from the Internet loan company went to find him so he had no choice but to ask for my help to resolve it.”
“More than three million yuan? Report to the police.”
“He has reported. But as those people at the Internet loan company have in their possession nude photos of him, he’s worried those photos will spread.” To be honest, Ji Qingqing found this matter of the nude photo difficult to handle. Solving Ji Chengxi’s debt problem for him would be rather easy, but getting the nude photos—that would take a lot of trouble.
However, if Lu Lixing was willing to help, only half the effort would be required.
Lu Lixing asked, “What kind of nude photo?”
Ji Chengxi, who was at the side listening to them talking about his nude photos, really felt uncomfortable. During this period of time, he was on tenterhooks. And
whenever he had the time, he would secretly go to porn sites and check, fearing that he would see his nude photos uploaded there.
