Chapter 514: Wedding Gift
Lu Lingche led Qiao Yin out of the car and took her into the living room.
Qiao Yin was reluctant to be dragged in, only to see servants bustling about in the villa. Some were wiping the furniture and accessories, while others were busy setting up dinner.
Qiao Yin was startled: “Lu Lingche, is this villa really yours?”
“It’s mine, what’s the matter?”
“Don’t you dislike having outsiders at home? What’s with these servants?”
“I’m not living here usually, it can’t go uncleaned, so I let the servants stay here. They only leave when I come.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a few servants came up and bowed, then silently retreated.
The assistant also left, leaving only Qiao Yin and Lu Lingche in the villa.
Qiao Yin was very hungry by now, she sat directly at the dining table, ignoring Lu Lingche, and began to eat with her chopsticks.
Lu Lingche sat down beside her, gave her a piece of chestnut cake, and said casually, “This villa is your wedding gift.”
Qiao Yin was eating shrimp, almost choking herself at his words: “Cough cough cough! Cough! What did you say?!”
“It was bought three months before we got married, I intended to give it to you when we got married, but it wasn’t well decorated then, so I never gave it.”
Qiao Yin looked at him incredulously: “Lu Lingche, stop fooling around. Don’t you think I know how stingy you are? You didn’t give me anything for our wedding, I even bought our wedding rings! Now you’re telling me that your gift to me is a seaside villa? Don’t you feel shameless saying this?”
“No, because I’m not lying to you.”
Lu Lingche took a sip of mushroom soup, saying calmly: “It’s just for you that there are servants cleaning inside. If it were mine, I wouldn’t let the servants live in.”
Qiao Yin still didn’t believe him, she thought that Lu Lingche would say anything just to deceive her.
The villa was slightly smaller than his, but its location was better, the environment was better, its value was definitely higher than his, not lower.
And his villa had cost 1.5 billion when he bought it.
She didn’t believe it, and Lu Lingche didn’t explain much further.
The villa was indeed bought for Qiao Yin, but the reason he didn’t give it was not just because of the decoration.
More so, because Qiao Haidong had asked him for a dowry of 20 million right before their wedding, and requested various types of gold, silver and jewels, even wanted shares of the Lu family. His greedy and ugly nature had disgusted Lu Lingche.
At that time, he had thought that Qiao Yin knew about Qiao Haidong’s request for a dowry, he thought she wanted those things as well, which chilled his feelings towards her, so naturally he didn’t give the villa.
He had never intended for Qiao Yin to know about this villa. He wouldn’t have brought her here if not for the fact that his home was occupied by Lan Yuyi today.
But now that they were here, he still told her that this was her gift.
The villa was decorated according to a girl’s taste, and at first glance, the style was totally different from his, which could easily cause her to misunderstand.
Qiao Yin had noticed that the decoration style of this villa was closer to a girl’s taste, but she didn’t misunderstand, because she now knew clearly that the only women for Lu Lingche were her and Lan Yuyi – there were no others.
Not just any woman could enter his life.
Unlike Dongfang Mu, although he was a young master of a wealthy family, he was extremely stingy. He never gifted anyone anything and certainly would not casually gift a girl a villa.
The only person who he could possibly gift a villa to was Lan Yuyi, but this villa’s style was not Lan Yuyi’s style either.
Lan Yuyi had a penchant for pink; she had even covered her car in pink, but this villa had no sign of pink, but was decorated in an orange color scheme.
Qiao Yin remembered that Lan Yuyi didn’t particularly like this color.
So, Lan Yuyi was ruled out as the owner of the villa.
