"Shut up. I don't want to hear you talk." Tong Qiao walked towards the villa after saying that. She stopped in her tracks when she thought of something. "Let's go back to the Lu family after lunch. My mom took care of An 'an last night and caught a cold. I don't want her to be too tired."
During lunch, Xia Daiyun didn't notice anything amiss. Lu Jinshen had always been the one taking care of Tong Qiao. Tong Qiao had always been carefree and didn't care about anything. Thus, when she gave Lu Jinshen the cold shoulder, Xia Daiyun didn't notice it.
After lunch, the two of them went back.
When they got home, Tong Qiao went into her room, turned on her computer, and started looking for a job. She had thought it through. An 'an was too young for her to take care of. When the child was older, she would take the child and leave the Lu family. To hell with Lu Jinshen and Sheng Yufei.
In the afternoon, Sheng Yufei came. The moment she entered the house, she apologized to Tong Qiao. "I'm sorry. I didn't know that you and Jin Shen registered your marriage at the Civil Affairs Bureau. Otherwise, I wouldn't have called Jin Shen even if I was betrayed by those people."
Tong Qiao said impatiently, "Stop pretending. It's boring."
Sheng Yufei glanced at Lu Jinshen, then looked at Tong Qiao. "I'm telling the truth. Please forgive me this once. You and Jin Shen have a good life. I promise I won't disturb your life in the future."
"Act on your own. Don't drag me into such shows in the future." Tong Qiao got up and went upstairs after saying that.
"Qiao 'er …"
Tong Qiao turned around and glanced at Lu Jinshen coldly. "Don't talk. The moment you speak, I'll think that you're in cahoots with each other."
After that, Sheng Yufei never came to the Lu family again.
Tong Qiao found a job online as a game programmer. Not only could she earn money, but she could also stay by An 'an's side.
Lu Jinshen was very busy with work. Just like before, he would occasionally go out to carry out missions.
As the days passed, Tong Qiao and Lu Jinshen's relationship was still very warm.
Lu Jinshen treated Tong Qiao well as usual, but Tong Qiao was still brooding over Sheng Yufei's matter.....
................. Tong Qiao....... Tong Qiao once......................
. After that... Lu Jinshen knew that it would be hard for him to get over Sheng Yufei's confinement with Tong Qiao. However, he couldn't just leave Sheng Yufei and her son alone. He owed them. His life was saved by them. He couldn't be so ungrateful.
Lu Jinshen didn't get close to Tong Qiao again. However, he took good care of her and An 'an...
......... Tong Qiao and Lu Jinshen came back from Shuxin and Huo Yanqing's wedding. On the way back to the capital from Fancheng, Tong Qiao asked, "Lu Jinshen, shall we go our separate ways?"
Lu Jinshen was driving when he heard Tong Qiao's words. He stopped the car by the roadside and turned to look at the backseat. "Why did you say that?"
"I want to plan out my life properly."
Lu Jinshen frowned slightly. "How do you plan out your life?"
Tong Qiao looked out of the window. Her mind was still filled with the image of Shuxin and Huo Yanqing kissing blissfully when they exchanged rings. At that time, she touched the meaningless ring on her finger and made up her mind. She also wanted to find her own happiness. She couldn't waste her time like this.
Tong Qiao looked away and looked at her daughter, who was sleeping soundly in her arms. "I'll take An 'an and leave the Lu family to find my own happiness."
Lu Jinshen's eyes instantly darkened. "I won't allow it."
Tong Qiao looked up at Lu Jinshen for a moment. Then she smiled faintly. She lowered her head to look at the child in her arms and didn't say anything else.
Lu Jinshen stared at Tong Qiao and said in a low and domineering voice, "I won't let you and An 'an leave."
Tong Qiao didn't look at Lu Jinshen again. She pursed her red lips and obviously didn't want to say anything else.
Lu Jinshen could tell that Tong Qiao seemed to have made up her mind to leave this time. He panicked and didn't know what to do. Since she was ignoring him, there was nothing he could do. In his frustration, Lu Jinshen slammed the steering wheel hard.
Beep …
The car suddenly let out a long series of beeps.
The child in Tong Qiao's arms was startled awake.
An 'an struggled in Tong Qiao's arms. Then she closed her eyes and started bawling.
"Lu Jinshen, you're crazy!" Tong Qiao glared at Lu Jinshen and hugged An 'an tighter. Then she rubbed her face against An' an's little face and coaxed gently, "An 'an, don't cry. Don't be afraid. Mommy is here. Be good, don't cry. Go to sleep …"
After coaxing her for a long time, An 'an finally fell asleep.
Tong Qiao wanted to give Lu Jinshen a good scolding, but she didn't want to frighten the child that she had painstakingly coaxed. She suppressed the anger in her heart and turned to look out the window without saying a word.
Lu Ziqian, who had been sitting beside Tong Qiao, poked Tong Qiao's arm gently. "Tong Qiao, are you really going to leave with your little sister?"
Tong Qiao turned to look at Lu Ziqian. After a few seconds of silence, she nodded and said, "Yes."
Lu Ziqian pursed his little lips and looked at Tong Qiao with a fawning expression. "I'll take good care of my little sister in the future. Can you not take her with you?"
Tong Qiao actually couldn't bear to part with Lu Ziqian. Otherwise, she wouldn't have delayed this matter for so long. However, all good things must come to an end. With Lu Jinshen and Auntie Lin taking care of Lu Ziqian, he would definitely live a good life. "If there's a chance, I'll take my little sister to visit you."
Lu Ziqian's little face darkened. He lowered his little head and said softly, "I'll let you watch the TV in the living room. I won't steal your favorite food, and I won't talk back to you. Can you and my little sister stay with me?"
Tong Qiao felt a surge of heat in her heart, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. She gently bumped Lu Ziqian's small arm with the hand that was holding An 'an. "Don't tell me you can't bear to part with me?"
Lu Ziqian muttered softly, "I can't bear to part with you."
"That's good." Tong Qiao looked at Lu Ziqian with longing and affection in her eyes. However, she said, "I hate you so much. If you can't bear to part with me, then there must be something wrong with your brain."
"You're the one who has something wrong with your brain. I hate you too. If you leave, don't come back." Lu Ziqian looked up at Tong Qiao. His grape-like eyes were filled with sparkling and translucent tears.
However, this child kept holding back and stubbornly refused to let his tears fall. It was as if this could prove that he was telling the truth.
Tong Qiao smiled. "Okay."
"Hmph!" Lu Ziqian snorted and turned his little head to look out of the window. However, the moment he turned his head, tears fell from his eyes. He was afraid that Tong Qiao would notice, so he held back his tears and did not dare to wipe them away.
Lu Jinshen had started the car at some point. From time to time, he would look at the situation in the backseat through the rearview mirror. Seeing that his son had failed to intervene, his face became increasingly gloomy. His thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and his jawline was tense. He exuded a terrifying aura of hostility.
When the car arrived at the Lu residence, Tong Qiao carried An 'an into the villa.
Lu Jinshen parked the car and went upstairs. Tong Qiao had already placed An 'an, who was sound asleep, on the bed. She was stuffing clothes into her open suitcase.
