Chapter 515: 515 Lu Qingyi: Around seven or eight years_1
Wait, she just left?
Realization dawned upon Gu Ke. She recalled Lu Qingyi who just left, and it hit her.
She jumped up, eyes wide open in disbelief as she looked at Tang Yaxin, "Was that the famous Professor Lu from Hardrick University?"
Gu Ke’s widened eyes were full of dismay, as if she couldn’t believe what she had discovered.
"Yes, that’s right."
Tang Yaxin shrugged, her tone was relaxed.
Wow, she only reacted now? How slow. The woman had already left.
"You...you just called her Qingyi. Isn’t she your friend? I could never have expected her to be Professor Lu."
Gu Ke looked mournful as she looked at Tang Yaxin, her face a picture of despair.
Mama mia! Who could have expected Hardrick University’s most renowned Professor Lu to be so young and attractive?
Shortly after Lu Qingyi joined Hardrick University, rumors spread that the university’s most renowned Professor Lu was a young and attractive female.
But she thought ’young’ would mean around thirty years old! A woman that age with such accomplishments was remarkable.
No one could have expected her to be so incredibly young.
"Indeed, she is my friend as well as Hardrick’s most renowned Professor Lu."
Tang Yaxin’s words held a hint of concealed pride.
Her first impression of Lu Qingyi was very positive, and she also liked Lu Qingyi’s personality. The only reason she wasn’t warm to her at first was because of Xu Boyan. Therefore, she saw whatever Lu Qingyi did as unpleasant.
Now that she had let go of Xu Boyan, Lu Qingyi was perfect in her eyes.
"Damn, Yaxin, I’m really envious of you. You’re actually friends with Professor Lu. What sort of luck is that?"
Gu Ke’s eyes widened in envy as she looked at Tang Yaxin.
Tang Yaxin: "Dumb luck."
Indeed, it was dumb luck. Who knew that after everything that had happened, Lu Qingyi would still choose to be friends with her.
She, Tang Yaxin, had stepped in dog shit. She was damn lucky.

Lu Qingyi had not actually left Guxiang Residence, she had merely moved into another room.
In the private room sat a middle-aged man, brimming with vitality. The man had his back to the room entrance, with the table spread out with dishes.
Lu Qingyi pushed open the door to the room, and upon seeing her, the man revealed a smile.
"Qingyi, you are here. Come in, sit."
The man stood to pull out a chair for Lu Qingyi. His voice was gentle, without any hint of the pride often assumed by older people.
"Okay."
Lu Qingyi was not shy with the man in front of her. She sat down, swung her leg over her knee, and slouched in her chair.
"How are your considerations coming along?"
Lu Ping asked, his eyes full of expectation.
"I regret."
Lu Qingyi’s fingers rhythmically drummed on her chair, her voice somewhat cold.
"Why? Is the price not high enough?"
Lu Ping seemed taken aback. He looked at Lu Qingyi, seeking an answer.
"No."
Lu Qingyi slightly lifted the corners of her lips in the hint of a smile, shaking her head in response.
"It’s just investigating someone. We won’t require anything from you apart from a photo. And a hundred million commission should be enough. Why not take the job?"
Lu Ping looked at Lu Qingyi, perplexity painted on his face.
"You didn’t mainly come here for this task, did you?"
Lu Qingyi didn’t answer Lu Ping’s question. She kept her head down, her voice somewhat cold. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Although the task was simple and the reward was high, Lu Ping coming to find her was definitely not without a reason.
It was only a task. Getting all worked up over it seemed rather excessive.
"Alas, let’s just talk about the task first."
Lu Ping rubbed his nose, opening the conversation with a touch of embarrassment.
"I’m not interested in checking."
Lu Qingyi’s tone was rather lazy, suggesting she had no interest in this at all.
Lu Ping: "It’s just a flick of the wrist."
"Humph, doing it with a photo won’t cut it."
Lu Qingyi straightened up. She looked at Lu Ping and spoke.
"??? Why not?"
Lu Ping appeared somewhat baffled by Lu Qingyi.
Fixing a photo was a matter of minutes for Lu Qingyi and she’d be compensated handsomely for it. Why was she unwilling?
Lu Qingyi wasn’t someone to disdain an easy profit, which was quite strange.
"Why should I let others appreciate a photo of my man?"
Lu Qingyi raised en eyebrow as she propped her chin on her right hand, staring back at Lu Ping.
The investigation was about Xu Boyan, the President of Xu Corporation. The requester only required a photo and didn’t want any more information.
All of Xu Boyan’s photos and information were classified. Usually, one would not be able to find them, which is why someone had hired Black Union to look for them.The reward was very high.
"??? My man? What the hell?"
Lu Ping didn’t quite grasp Lu Qingyi’s meaning and was rather confused.
"Qingyi, can you please be clearer?"
"Hmm, Xu Boyan, the whole of Xu Corporation, it’s all mine. I won’t investigate or betray my own people. I’m sorry."
Lu Qingyi settled into a more comfortable position, slowly speaking her piece.
The words clearly reached Lu Ping’s ears, leaving him stunned.
Lu Qingyi and Xu Boyan??
This??
It can’t be, right?
"What... what’s your relationship?"
Lu Ping’s mouth twitched slightly.
"What do you think?"
Lu Qingyi asked cryptically.
"Alright, I understand now."
Lu Ping nodded.
"When will you start managing the Hacker League seriously?"
Lu Ping asked, as Lu Qingyi was the most prominent member of the Hacker League, she was essentially the leader.
She just left it to others to manage in name, and she had never tended to it.
"Let’s discuss that later, I don’t have the time."
Lu Qingyi shrugged off in a nonchalant manner.
"... You have the time."
It seemed like Lu Qingyi wasn’t busy right now, so how could she not have time?
Anyway, Lu Ping didn’t buy into her excuses.
"In the future, I’ll definitely have to have a child, that’ll take about a year. I can’t trust anyone else to look after the child, so obviously I’ll have to take care of the child myself. Children only start to understand things around five or six years old, so isn’t that about seven or eight years?"
Lu Qingyi held up her fingers, appearing thoughtful as she spoke her piece.
She even made it sound so reasonable. It wasn’t urgent to have children, it was merely an excuse to shirk her responsibilities.
All high and mighty.
If anyone ever asked, she could just say she hadn’t conceived yet.
"... What the hell?"
Lu Ping’s eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Lu Qingyi. It was as though he was seeing some sort of freak, his expression a strange mix of horror, fear, and confusion.
"Lu Qingyi, you don’t have a fever, do you?"
Lu Ping moved to feel Lu Qingyi’s forehead, but stopped himself. He looked at Lu Qingyi and asked.
