Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Jewelry Worth Tens of Millions, Just Take It CasualHe took the chain and put it around her ankle, the thin golden chain making her foot appear exceptionally delicate and fair.

His fingers deliberately brushed across the top of her foot. Her back tingled, and her face instantly flushed crimson. She wished she could kick him in the face and call him a rogue!

However... She dared not.

He finished putting her shoes on, his expression distant and stern, as if the person who had just held her foot wasn’t him at all.

"Where are we going? Mr. Lu, please explain clearly so I can prepare."

"Mr. Lu?"

Lu Qing furrowed his brows slightly, clearly displeased with the formality of the title.

Qin Miaomiao glanced at him and tentatively asked:

"Then... Mr. Lu Qing?"

His razor-sharp gaze swept across her, making her heart tremble. She quickly corrected herself:

"Then... Lu Qing?"

"Whatever."

He strode forward with long steps. Qin Miaomiao rolled her eyes and followed after him.

Once in the car, she had just settled into her seat when he seemed to abruptly remember something. He casually tossed her a square box.

She opened it and found a diamond necklace inside! Tiny diamonds were scattered along the design, with a large pink diamond prominently featured at its center. It was extremely exquisite!

Of course, it was undoubtedly very expensive.

"What’s this...?"

"As my wife, how can you not wear any jewelry?"

True, she was now Mrs. Lu, representing the face of Lu Qing. However, up until now, he had never taken Qin Miaomiao to any public events.

Qin Miaomiao’s fingertips brushed over the diamond necklace. Her eyes showed no trace of greed, treating it as though it were a perfectly ordinary object. Not a hint of fluctuation crossed her gaze.

"Thank you."

She said, taking it out of the box. The clasp was intricately designed and hard to fasten.

She fumbled with it for about ten minutes, her hands tired, but still couldn’t manage to clasp it.

Lu Qing was right in front of her, yet she stubbornly refused to ask him for help.

In the end, it was Lu Qing who spoke up:

"Let me."

He took the necklace, gently sweeping her hair aside to expose her slender swan-like neck.

Fair and tender, Lu Qing’s gaze slowly traveled over her neck before landing on her petite earlobe.

On her earlobe, there was even a small red mole.

Lu Qing, feigning indifference, calmly fastened the necklace for her.

Qin Miaomiao felt a tingling numbness, her body stiffening completely!

She wanted to move away but found herself unable to, realizing that her body had already been encircled by him, effectively trapped.

The posture was undeniably suggestive. After all, she was a woman, and his heated, masculine aura was spilling against her neck.

Gradually, her earlobes turned red, yet he seemed to be deliberately toying with her.

Flustered, she asked hurriedly:

"Are we done yet?"

He replied with a faint "Mm-hmm," finally releasing her. Qin Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly shifted to the side, desperate to draw a clear boundary between them!

This man was simply too dangerous!

The banquet venue was held at an arts gallery, where various media outlets had long been waiting, cameras snapping incessantly.

Attendees were comprised of high society elites alongside famous actresses, each one fervently competing for attention. The atmosphere was lively and extravagant.

This was a charity gala.

Some reporters gossiped in private: "I heard that this time, Young Master Lu will be attending."

"Really? Young Master Lu hasn’t made a public appearance in ages. That little tabloid magazine captured a glimpse of his back last time, and their sales skyrocketed!"

"Everyone knows about Young Master Lu’s status now. Just having some minor connection to him is enough to become famous. Do you remember that model named Bai Wei? She claimed to be Young Master Lu’s confidante, and now she’s wildly popular. It’s possible she’ll be coming with him this time."

"If she really shows up with Young Master Lu, her position in the entertainment industry will be solidified."

"Can’t believe her luck, catching the eye of Young Master Lu."
