Chapter 23: About The Deal
I'm surprised you didn't know, **she continued ** After he made the deal with Emilo, Emilo was angry and kept a grudge so he decided to kill h...."
"Wait..wait, what deal? "
"Your deal, he made a deal with Emilo about you, he paid a huge amount of money... Emilo didn't even want to release you back then"
"I know he must have paid up the debt my dad owe Emilo, that's why I was able to leave with him, but what I didn't know is when he talked to Emilo " Qingxia said.
"I was there when he came that night"
"What night? " Qingxia asked.
"The night you first left the club, Tangxiao came to Emilo , I was there with Emilo when he came, he told Emilo that he came for you, at first Emilo thought he wanted you for the night and some other nights as well but then he made his intentions clear, Emilo was very angry he refused to listen but Tangxiao threatened to expose his business, so Emilo decided to make things difficult for him by telling him that the debt your father was oweing him is the sum 20 million dollars"
"WHAT!!, that's a big lie, my dad only owes him the sum of 5 million dollars, he said so himself" Qingxia exclaimed.
"I know, I think he wanted Tangxiao to change his mind, to make him wonder why he would waste that amount of money on a prostitute , but Tangxiao was unshaken, he only gave Emilo a blank cheque and walked away, Emilo's anger rose, he couldn't believe that he would agree to his request but he had no option"
"Oh God, I didn't know, I think that's why I woke up that morning and couldn't find him because he actually went to see Emilo, and to think that he paid that amount of money for me....but why did he have to kidnap him since the debt is cleared and when was that?
"Yesterday " Tang ning answered
"What.... was that why he came back with bruises?
"After he was abducted by Emilo, the police was able to find him, and when they went after Emilo he ran away but they shot him and that's how we are free"
"I didn't know he went through all that for me"
"I guess your beauty captivated him"
"Stop that"
"I'm serious .... I mean which man in his right senses would do that and for a girl they picked up at the club"
"He's an exception "
"He likes you, that's the only explanation "

"Why are you still up? " Lu Shan asked seeing Xinghe still awake.
"I told her to go and sleep but she was adamant?" Nanny Rong answered.
Lu Shan walked towards Xinghe, squatting in front of her he asked.
"Is something troubling you? "
She shook her head and he said
"Then what's wrong, why ain't you sleeping, it's already late? "
"I was waiting for you ..... Why were you late? "
"Little swan, you don't have to wait up for me anytime I'm running late, anyway I had alot of work to finish up that's why I'm home late"
She nodded to respond
"Let's go upstairs "
"Ain't you going to eat something ? " Nanny Rong asked him.
"No, it's already late, I will eat in the morning " he replied.
"Alright, good night sir" she turned to go to the guess room when he stopped her.
"Nanny, I'm sorry you are still here and can't go home"
"It's okay, you know how she is, besides I love keeping her company, and I have already called my husband he knows I will be spending the night here, it's a good thing he's understanding " she turned and walked away.
They both also went to their room, while Lu Shan went to the bathroom to take a quick shower but Xinghe just went straight to bed.
Coming out of the shower, Lu Shan saw her on the bed and wondered if she was already asleep.
"Are you already sleeping ?" he asked.
"No"
"Father called today, he said that we are to attend a charity event "
"When?" she asked.
"This weekend " he answered.
"Okay"
Seeing she didn't pull the quilt to cover herself up, he moved closer to her and helped lift the quilt over her to her shoulder.
"Goodnight " he said to her.
"Good night" she replied.

Tang xiao finished his work, then he closed his laptop and left the study to his room on his way he realised that Qingxia's room was quiet but the light was still on, so he opened the door slowly and found both the girls fast asleep, so he switched off the light , locked the door and went straight to his room.
And soon fell asleep.
