100% Love From The Boss zChapter 292 - Lock Him in the Basement

Standing in front of Sir Qiao and being scolded and questioned by him strictly, Ling Tianyi behaved modestly, but he was not afraid of them. Ling Tianyi said with dignity, “I can make any compensation except for marrying Anna.”

Although Ling Tianyi had made a mistake due to alcohol, he made up his mind to protect Xia Xiaoluo from being disappointed. He would not make his family business get into trouble because of his own mistake. In order to realize the goal, he had prepared for the worst. That was, to sacrifice himself to compensate.

“How disobedient you are! A De and A Cheng, tie this b.a.s.t.a.r.d up!” Sir Qiao was furious.

“Yes, sir!” Those two bodyguards of the Qiao family tied Ling Tianyi up at once. Ling Tianyi thought that he could beat them up, but he did not hit back.

“Dad, what are you going to do?” Qiao Anna’s father asked.

“Lock him in the bas.e.m.e.nt for three days without giving him any food! I’d like to see whether he will have the same dignity.” Sir Qiao really wanted to punish Ling Tianyi severely to vent his anger, but he couldn’t kill him for the sake of Qiao Anna and the unborn baby. He hoped that Ling Tianyi could change his mind and marry Qiao Anna.

“Dad, Ling Tianyi is the manager of Huasheng Group and we cooperated well with the Ling family. What’s more, even though he made a mistake, Anna was wrong as well. So…” For fear that it would go worse, Qiao Anna’s father wanted to plead for Ling Tianyi, not letting things got worse. They could threaten Ling Tianyi, but they could not lock him because it was illegal.

“Sorry, grandpa. It’s my fault! Now that Yi is reluctant to marry me, please don’t force him anymore.” Qiao Anna pretended to plead for Ling Tianyi, but she just wanted to leave Ling Tianyi a good impression.

“Shut up! You are pregnant now! Why are you so shameless, you dare to plead for him?” Although Sir Qiao cared about Qiao Anna very much, he still felt angry at her unmarried pregnancy.

“Anna, I’m sorry. It’s my fault, so don’t plead for me.” Ling Tianyi said.

Qiao Anna looked at Ling Tianyi with a grievance. Looking at Qiao Anna who was delicate and touching, Ling Tianyi thought that he would marry her if he hadn’t fallen in love with Xia Xiaoluo. He loved Xia Xiaoluo, so he could not love anyone else.

Qiao Anna’s father thought for a while, and then he said to Sir Qiao, “Dad, whether Ling Tianyi will marry Anna depends on his parents, not himself. It’s improper to lock him here. How about asking his parents to take him back and give us a satisfactory reply in three days? Ling Tianyi’s father was an experienced people, he won’t be so naive as Ling Tianyi. We had better keep a friendly relations.h.i.+p with them.”

Qiao Anna’s father planned to threaten Ling Tianyi at first. However, he was reluctant to bet his capital on it because it was risky and might cause destruction to both parties. On the worst occasion, it might destroy the business of the Qiao Family. He could threaten Ling Tianyi, but he couldn’t do it at the cost of the benefits of the Qiao family.

“No!” Sir Qiao pounded on the table and said, “Since he has made a mistake and dare to not be responsible to my precious granddaughter Anna, he must pay for it. Lock him up in the bas.e.m.e.nt right now!”

“Humph! If it could not be solved well, I will punish the Ling family at all costs!” Sir Qiao said. Qiao Anna’s father wouldn’t sacrifice the business of the Qiao family, but Sir Qiao would do anything for Qiao Anna, the apple of his eye.

“Sir Qiao, I’m not a good father. This b.a.s.t.a.r.d made such a big mistake and I feel shameful! You are a respectful senior in the business, so I respect you very much. You can punish him as you like! But please don’t kill him because he is the father of the unborn baby. I came here in a hurry, so I didn’t prepare for enough bride-price today. But in three days, I will come here to apologize with the formal bride-price and ask Anna to marry my son! I can promise you to hold a grand wedding for Anna in one month!” Ling Desheng said. What he wanted was Ling Tianyi’s life. Knowing that Sir Qiao was hot-tempered, so Ling Desheng planned to deal with it later, now that he couldn’t take Ling Tianyi away at that time.

“Well, your son is naive, but as his father, you are a reasonable man! I won’t kill him in the following days, at least in the following three days. But you’d better not let me down.” Sir Qiao said, he seemed to calm down.

Ling Desheng kept apologizing, while He Meishu and Qiao Anna’s aunts all stood on Qiao Anna’s side. They advised dealing with it by holding a wedding, which would disguise a major accident as a minor one. They believed it was OK if it could have a happy ending after such a thing happened.

Before long, Ling Desheng and He Meishu left.

“Why didn’t you take our son back home just now?” He Meishu said unhappily. Because she was worried about Ling Tianyi very much. Even though Ling Tianyi made a mistake, she would be anxious if her son was beaten up or suffered from hunger in the Qiao family.

“You know Sir Qiao, right? He is always merciless and strict, so he will only show mercy when we obey him.” Ling Desheng sighed.

“What do you mean? I don’t believe that he dares to kill my son! Even though he is powerful, the Ling family is more powerful than the Qiao family! It is a law-ruled society now, killing people is against the laws. I know he is a respectful senior in business in A City, but killing people is illegal!” He Meishu said unhappily because she was worried about Ling Tianyi very much when it related to her son’s life.

“You are so ignorant! Sir Qiao doesn’t need to kill a person on his own, but he can kill people without leaving any evidence! So n.o.body dares to blame him easily if they don’t have any evidence!” Ling Desheng said. And then he closed his eyes to think about the solutions because it was difficult to deal with it now.

Xia Xiaoluo finished her cla.s.ses for the whole day. Ouyang Ziqian appeared in front of Xia Xiaoluo when she finished the cla.s.s, “Are you tired after so many cla.s.ses?”

“Fang Ruichen kept talking and nagging me, almost making me crazy!” Xia Xiaoluo shook her head.

“I will invite you to have dinner as a relaxation!” Ouyang Ziqian said gently.

“I’m afraid that I can’t go with you. Fang Ruichen asked me to have dinner together just now, but I refused him, telling him that I was going to have a rest in my dormitory. He will say a lot if I have dinner with you.” Xia Xiaoluo shrugged her shoulders. She didn’t like Fang Ruichen’s nagging, just like Tang Sanzang in the Journey to the West.

“Xiaoluo, you can get rid of all the troubles here if you leave A City with me. You can start a new life in Y Country. Don’t worry about anything because I will always protect you.” Ouyang Ziqian asked Xia Xiaoluo to go abroad with him again.

Xia Xiaoluo didn’t know what to say after she heard Ouyang Ziqian’s words, so she just lowered her head and kept silent.

It was a little embarra.s.sing, so Ouyang Ziqian said, “Just think about it when you have time. You can tell me at any time if you are willing to leave with me. Now let’s eat the hot pot you love most together regardless of Fang Ruichen! I will deal with it if he knows it. I will always protect you no matter what happens.” Ouyang Ziqian said.

Finally, Xia Xiaoluo also refused Ouyang Ziqian to have dinner together, she went back to her dormitory. She cooked two dishes and had dinner with Luo Xixi. And then Xia Xiaoluo lied on her bed and started thinking about her messy affairs.

At midnight, Xia Xiaoluo got up to look at the night sky through the window, she felt lonely in her heart.

At the same time, Ling Tianyi was in the dark bas.e.m.e.nt, he was so hungry that his belly began to roar.

At this time, someone was knocking at the door of the bas.e.m.e.nt. Ling Tianyi walked to the door, “Who is that?”

“Yi, it’s me! Be quiet!” Qiao Anna entered the bas.e.m.e.nt, giving Ling Tianyi some bread and a bottle of milk, “You must be hungry, just eat something first!”

“Why are you here?” Ling Tianyi looked around, making sure that there was n.o.body else.

“Eat something quickly and I will tell you!” Qiao Anna said in a low voice.

“Thank you!” Ling Tianyi was hungry, so he started to eat at once.

“Yi, I come here to tell you two things. First, I want to tell you that I didn’t tell my family about the pregnancy, because I promised you to keep it as a secret. I’m a person who always keeps my words. Even though I want to tell someone, I would only tell my parents and my grandpa, but I don’t know why all my family members and relatives knew it. I found that someone sent the messages to them at the same time and I have written the number down. I hope that you can find the person for fear that he would go on framing you and me.” Qiao Anna said. She gave the slip of paper with the number to Ling Tianyi.

Ling Tianyi put the slip of paper in his pocket. Then Qiao Anna said continuously, “Second, it’s over one o’clock at midnight and my family all fell asleep, so I will let you go now. I don’t want to force you to marry me. Just escape first, thinking about the solutions later!”

“Anna, thank you!” Ling Tianyi sighed, but he didn’t want to leave.

“Don’t waste time! Follow me!” Qiao Anna said, wanting to take Ling Tianyi away.

“Anna, take it easy and listen to me first.” Ling Tianyi said, “First, I will find the owner of the number you tell me. Even though I stay here, I could also investigate it. Second, I can’t leave because I made a mistake. I can’t marry you, so I will accept all the punishments from your grandfather.”

“Please don’t, Yi. My grandpa is hot-tempered. You have to promise to marry me, even if it is a fake marriage. If you don’t want to do that, just follow me. You can leave with Xia Xiaoluo if you love her. You are capable, I believe that you can make your own business in another place.” Qiao Anna insisted.
