PLTRSC Chapter 28

This time it was Lu Yinghuai’s turn to be grateful. If Jiang Tang disagreed, he was ready to beg him to accept his care.

After a while, Fang Mu opened the door and came in, holding a stack of exquisite lunch boxes in one hand and holding the plush bear that Jiang Tang bought in the other arm.

Assistant Fang was well-known for his efficiency. This time he asked someone to wash and dry the bear, then bought some food and brought it back.

“Give it to me.” Lu Yinghuai freed one hand to take the bear and placed it beside him.

Jiang Tang bit his lower lip unconsciously, staring at the bear. The cute pink teddy bear didn’t match the black, white and gray villa at all, and it looked even more out of place next to Lu Yinghuai.

“Don’t bite,” Lu Yinghuai pinched Jiang Tang’s cheek, thinking that this kid really didn’t feel any pain, “It’s bleeding.”

He looks very cute, but his little fangs were quite pointy.

He changed his posture, and in front of Fang Mu, who was like a huge light bulb, he lowered his head and kissed the blood off Jiang Tang’s lips.

Lu Yinghuai had never loved anyone since he was a child. Most of the people he rescued were omegas and children who had not yet differentiated. Sometimes they were covered with scars, but Lu Yinghuai completely turned a blind eye to them.

Shi Feicheng once asked him, “You saved so many people, and there were so many beautiful omegas among them, but didn’t you feel sorry for any of them?”

When some omegas were injured, they looked so fragile and pitiful that any stranger would feel sorry for them.

How did Lu Yinghuai respond? He said, “They are no different from you in my opinion.”

What it meant was that he had no interest and no feelings, and it made no difference to him whether he got hurt or not.

He had been thinking about how to love his little Omega these days. He was more than just interested in and had feelings for Jiang Tang. He not only felt sorry for him but also wanted to act like a hooligan towards him.

Lu Yinghuai held Jiang Tang in his arms while carrying the lunch box. He stirred the porridge with a spoon and asked, “Has the gift been delivered to the Jiang family?”

“I have sent someone to deliver it.” Fang Mu replied.

Jiang Tang wanted to ask, but then he thought that he was not qualified.

Of course Lu Yinghuai could see it, and he was so distressed that even if Jiang Tang didn’t want to know, he would rush to report it: “I asked someone to give Jiang Zhitao a gift.”

“I can give her another gift myself, Mr. Lu doesn’t have to spend any money.”

Lu Yinghuai blew on the porridge and brought it to Jiang Tang’s lips. Looking at the little one’s surprised expression, he said, “Drink the porridge.”

“I can do it myself…”

The spoon was placed at his lips, and Lu Yinghuai was ready to hold it until he drank it: “Be good, since it’s inconvenient for you now, I’ll take it as a thank you gift for giving me the gift.”

“But that’s not…”

“Tang Tang doesn’t want to give it to me?” He knew that Jiang Tang didn’t mean that, but he still looked like he would make a fuss if Jiang Tang dared to say no.

“No, that one is too cheap.”

It was less than three hundred yuan, and Jiang Tang felt that something of this price was not worthy of Lu Yinghuai.

He was thinking about the watch, but this injury would mean he wouldn’t be able to make money for several days.

But then he thought again and felt better because Mr. Lu said he would take care of him every step of the way for the next few days.

“Everything Tang Tang gave me is priceless.” Lu Yinghuai looked into Jiang Tang’s eyes and said seriously, “I like it very much.”

On the night Jiang Tang passed away in his previous life, Lu Yinghuai realized that Jiang Tang had actually given him many gifts, which were mixed in with the gifts given to him by others. He didn’t know about it, and Jiang Tang had never mentioned it.

At that time, was Jiang Tang looking forward to him finding the gift he had sent, and was he waiting for his response?

He definitely was.

That night, Lu Yinghuai found a status on Jiang Tang’s phone that read, “A birthday gift for Mr. L. He said he liked it very much.”

He thought Jiang Tang hated him and never thought about receiving his gift. The child offered his sincere heart with both hands but couldn’t wait for his response, so he made up a dream to deceive himself.

Lu Yinghuai had never known the taste of sorrow, and that night he burst into tears for the first time in his life.

After watching Jiang Tang finish the porridge, he continued, “It’s not a big deal. It’s not something valuable. By the way, what did you give me as a gift?”

“…a set of kindergarten-primary school transition test papers for ten yuan.”

When he said it didn’t cost any money, he really wasn’t being polite to Jiang Tang.

Lu Yinghuai frowned unsatisfiedly: “You can just buy something worth two or three dollars from a roadside stall and fool around. How can such a little brat be worth ten dollars?”

Jiang Tang: “…”

Jiang Zhitao was Jiang Tang’s sister. If today’s incident had not happened, Lu Yinghuai would have definitely given her a valuable gift, but now he hated all members of the Jiang family equally except Jiang Tang.

The phone that was placed aside rang again. Lu Yinghuai put his arm around Jiang Tang, glanced at the caller ID, and said in a deep voice, “President.”

Jiang Tang glanced at the name on it and saw it was Gu Jingmo. He intuitively felt that it was an omega.

“What are you busy with? You should know the rules of the alliance. As the captain, you can’t lose contact at will.” The young man’s cold voice came, “The pheromone entity hurt someone, and they complained to the alliance.”

Lu Yinghuai used his other hand to warm Jiang Tang’s fingertips, and said nonchalantly: “Someone died? I accept the punishment.”

“Don’t you have anything to explain?” Gu Jingmo’s voice was flat. He didn’t seem to care about the matter and was just asking out of obligation.

“No.”

“You don’t hurt people for no reason.”

“They hurt my Omega.”

Gu Jingmo’s voice finally showed some emotion: “Omega? Yours? The people under you said that you left the mission midway, was it also because of this Omega?”

“Yes.”

“The Jiang family’s child has just escaped danger. They demand that you give an explanation for this matter no matter what.”

“Okay, I’ll give them a written review tomorrow,” Lu Yinghuai’s voice also turned cold, “Is that okay?”

“You are not the kind of person who would conflict with others for an Omega, Lu Yinghuai…”

“I am.” Lu Yinghuai interrupted him impatiently.

“What?”

“I said I am. I will hurt people for my Omega,” Lu Yinghuai closed his eyes and hugged Jiang Tang tightly, “If necessary, I will make them disappear.”

“You!”

“I accept the punishment, I will review it, and I will give them the explanation they want.” Lu Yinghuai felt Jiang Tang’s gaze, lowered his eyes and looked at him soothingly, holding his right hand and patting his arm gently, “It’s late, we need to rest.”

He hung up the phone right after he said that.

“Mr. Lu…” Jiang Tang couldn’t fail to hear what happened, no matter how slow he was. He frowned, “My brother…”

“Is he worthy of being your brother?”

Lu Yinghuai’s tone softened: “Are you sleepy? Can I carry you to sleep?”

It was as if the phone call just now was just an unimportant episode.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Lu. I’ve caused you trouble.”

Jiang Tang felt that he was simply a troublemaker.

Lu Yinghuai touched Jiang Tang’s face with pity. If he hadn’t arrived, Jiang Tang would at most tell him that he was injured accidentally after being bullied. It was obviously because he didn’t keep a close eye on her that Jiang Tang got injured.

Lu Yinghuai pinched Jiang Tang’s chin and looked at him: “Jiang Zi Ang’s injury is not that serious. If he was really dying, his parents would not have the energy to complain to the alliance. I won’t really bear any punishment. If there is a fuss, it is well known that my pheromones are not under my control. They should pay for the consequences if they rush to get involved.”
