Chapter 626: You Will Get It Tonight

Florence echoes, "That's right, brother. Help me this time, okay?"

Amelia and Florence stare at him waiting for his consent, while he slowly crosses his legs and says
sternly, "If I give you a postgraduate recommendation, do you know how unfair it is to others?"

Everything he has, Rex has fought for it. He managed to be sent abroad to study at government
expenses and get his full scholarship by striving to be the best. Otherwise, Han Yu Law Firm would not
be what it is today.

He doesn't come from money. He is a self-made man.

He is wavering and doesn't want to seem ruthless. However, he knows Florence hasn't worked for this
at all. If she has tried her best but still can't reach the standard, he would help her.

He has been helping her through difficulties since she is young. She could use her young age as an
excuse, but now she is a college student, and Rex can't watch her goofing off like this anymore.

Hearing him say that, Amelia realizes he probably won't help Florence, asking anxiously, "Rex! Just this
once, help your sister! She is your blood. Please."

Rex frowns harder. It looks like Amelia is desperate and doesn't give him room for disagreement.

She is using the kinship card, and he can't fight that.

The living room falls into an unbearable silence. Florence is the most anxious one. She has bragged
about getting a postgraduate recommendation to her classmates. If that is toasted, she will be
humiliated.

"One last time." In the end, Rex agrees. "You are 24 and no longer a child. I won't help you in your
living expenses or any other matters. One has to earn others' respect on his own, understand?"



Florence finally relaxes, but her face has turned red lectured by him. Although unconvinced, she still
nods and says, "Got it, brother."

Amelia heaves a sigh of relief. She picks up the teacup on the table and takes a sip, saying, "I'm so
happy. You are siblings, so you should help each other. Florence, Rex is your role model."

Florence reluctantly replies, "I know."

Amelia looks towards the kitchen and says, "Dinner is still not ready?"

Coincidentally, just as she says that, Lily comes out of the kitchen. Looking at the three people sitting
quietly in the living room, she senses some embarrassment in the air. Then she walks over and pats
Rex's shoulder gently. "Dinner is almost ready. Go and wash your hands."

With her soft hand on his shoulder, Rex cheers up a little. He stands up and walks towards the
bathroom without saying a word.

"There's another tap in the dining hall. Amelia, Florence, you can wash your hands there," Lily says
politely. Then she goes to find Rex in the bathroom.

She opens the door and finds that he isn't washing his hands but standing in front of the sink with a
cold face. Lily sighs helplessly and closes the door. She walks to him and says, "Did you quarrel with
your mother?"

"No." For him, it is not an altercation, but a slight disagreement.

Lily laughs and shakes her head. "You just wouldn't admit it. How can it not be a quarrel when you look
so unhappy?"

Rex looks down at her bright little face. Ever since she received the treatment, she has been in a good
mood. Although she has been in agony because of it, she weathers the storm and becomes more



optimistic.

Just like how she is trying to comfort him, while she used to hide herself in a cocoon.

Rex thinks for a moment and comes to a conclusion, "It's not."

"For what?" After asking that, she fears she might annoy him, so she quickly says, "It's okay if you don't
want to mention it."

"It's Florence," Rex says without hesitation, "She wants me to get her a postgraduate
recommendation."

Lily nods and says, "I see. Then why are you unhappy?"

Rex is slightly surprised to hear her ask that, raising his eyebrows. "You think I shouldn't be?"

She thinks for a moment and says, "Well, she's your sister. So, I don't see a problem with her asking for
your help."

"She won't have a problem, but someone else will." Rex expresses his concerns calmly, "If I help her, it
would be unfair to others, and I am not a fan of taking shortcuts."

Lily finally understands why he is angry, not knowing what to say. Should she praise him for being
selfless and unbiased? But that would sound like a mockery now.

Nevertheless, she finds him upright beyond her imagination. Although he looks nonchalant, he is
impartial as they make it.

"You're right. But that's your sister. She is family, and you should help her when she needs you. You
can't turn her down, right? Just give her a lecture or two. Don't be mad." Lily comforts him softly, "Wash
your hands and join us at the table. We've been here for some time."



Amelia and Florence might wonder what they are doing there.

Rex looks at Lily's charming smile. In fact, he stopped being mad the moment she started to comfort
him. However, he pretends to be displeased and frowns, saying, "I am still pissed. And I lost my
appetite."

Lily asks quickly without thinking, "Then how can you feel better?"

Evidently, Rex is waiting for her to say that. Just as she finishes speaking, he leans over and hugs her
into his arms, biting her lips. Then she can't say anything.

The sudden kiss tenses Lily up. When she remembers his mother and sister are waiting in the living
room, she feels it is a bad time for making out.

This is the bathroom. He, he actually...?

Rex loses himself in this fiery kiss, taking the sweetness in her mouth. Noticing that it looks like she is
trying hard to take his might, he wants to kiss her even harder.

He desires to swallow her whole, but the timing is not right, so he can only quench his thirst.

Lily is afraid that he might act recklessly and freezes for a moment. Luckily, he stops and lets her off.
Then he leans closer and whispers in her ear, "You will get it tonight."

Lily feels there were a rabbit in her chest, her heart racing wildly. Out of breath, she manages to say,
"Don't take it out on me."

Rex gazes at her rosy face and laughs despite himself. "You dummy. You are even goofier than a
Barbie doll."



Lily points at her face and blinks. She watches as the man cleans and wipes his hands before walking
out. Feeling wronged, she murmurs to herself, "Why did I bother to do that?"
