“Okay, I understand…” Yue Zheng’s icy blue eyes lost their color for a moment, he lowered his eyes, concealed the emotions in his eyes and stood up.
The man looked down from above, and his handsome face was quickly covered by solid ice, like an ice peak barrier.
"Mom, Father... Since eldest brother's engagement party has been cancelled and Europe can't do without me, I'll go back first." Yue Zheng's face was extremely cold, and there was no emotion on that cold and handsome face.
He walked around the fallen chair behind him and headed out the living room door.
“Yue…” Xinluo wanted to call her son, but her left hand was held by Lu Yuchen again.
When Qiao Muer heard Yue Zheng's words, her almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly calmed down.
Her eyes fell on the table, and she looked more restrained and calm than ever.
Yue Zheng's pace was a little too slow, but when he didn't hear any attempt to persuade him to stay, he quickened his pace.
He walked out of the living room, his back did not show a trace of loneliness, but instead looked cool and upright.
Only Lu Yan, who was sitting near the door, noticed Yue Zheng's right hand, which was hanging by his side and clenched into a fist.
…
After Yue Zheng left, everything seemed to return to normal.
From beginning to end, Qiao Muer just lowered her head and listened to the adults talking without saying another word.
She didn't dare to speak, fearing that she would fail to express herself properly if she spoke, and she had a hard time holding back her tears.
Everyone else present could see that Qiao Muer seemed normal but was actually abnormal.
But they all knew that what Qiao Muer needed now was not face-to-face consolation, but a heart that could heal her slowly.
Although Qiao Mohan really wanted to catch Yue Zheng and make him take responsibility.
But he admired his daughter's pride.
My daughter is right. It’s not like the daughter of the Qiao family can’t afford to sleep with the boy from the Lu family.
So what if he is the son of his good friend Lu Yuchen? He still has to warm the bed for his baby.
Qiao Mohan and his family did not stay long and were busy saying goodbye. They had to go back and have a good talk with Mu'er.
Lu Yuchen and Yue Xinluo sent the three members of the Qiao family to the gate.
Qiao Muer followed her parents obediently, leaning against the door waiting for them to greet her, while she lowered her head and looked at her toes.
At this moment, a tall figure suddenly approached, almost blocking out the light from the street lamp under the door.
Qiao Muer saw the circle of light at her feet turned into a shadow. She looked up in surprise, only to see her godfather Lu Yuchen standing in front of her with a stern face.
He was looking at her with those deep, dark eyes.
Qiao Muer was startled.
Unlike the amiable godmother Xinluo, godfather Lu was always serious and stern, and Qiao Muer felt scared every time she saw him.
However, this time, it was beyond her expectations.
Seeing Qiao Muer looking up, Lu Yuchen, who had walked out the door, suddenly bent down and whispered something into Qiao Muer's ear.
"Huh?" Qiao Muer blinked her almond-shaped eyes hard, and then blinked again, suspecting that she had heard it wrong.
Lu Yuchen, who had stood up straight again, raised the corners of his cold lips slightly: "How about it, are you willing?"
Qiao Muer tried hard to digest Lu Yuchen's proposal. After thinking for a few seconds, she nodded firmly.
The curve of Lu Yuchen's lips deepened slightly, and his handsome face almost made people dazzled.
He reached out and rubbed the top of Qiao Muer's head.
If she wasn't a girl he had seen grow up with, and the daughter of Qiao Mohan, she would never have been treated like this by Master Lu.
Xinluo and Qiao Mohan were watching the interaction between the two with puzzled eyes, and had no idea what Master Lu had just said to Qiao Muer.
But inexplicably, I felt that Qiao Muer, who seemed a little unhappy just now, seemed to have fire in her eyes again.
