"Oh my god!"
Lu Tianxing's face was filled with exasperation. How could everything come down to having children? Clearly, there is no such thing as a free lunch, he thought; there is a price to pay. The old man must be obsessed with having a grandson, resorting to bribery since threats had failed.
"Grandpa, aren't we straying a bit too far from the topic? Weren't we talking about the ring?" Lu Tianxing said cautiously.
"Don't play coy with me. I am telling you, once I've decided on something, it won't change. There, I've explained the situation to you. Zhiqing's life is now in your hands. I can't be bothered with it anymore. If you like being pointed at and called a famous military knife, a supposed king of the underworld, a 'Useless Judge,' someone who can't even protect his own wife, that's up to you. Now, you can get lost."
Bai Qiao Mountain was unforgiving, not treating Lu Tianxing's status with any semblance of regard.
