Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Qing stopped the car and called out to Huo Jinyan.
“Why are you here?”
Huo Jinyan turned to look at him. “I was sending someone.”
Lu Qing frowned. “You only just sent Jingzhi back now?”
He seemed to realize something.
Lu Qing could not help but mutter, “Could it be that Dad and Mom called me because they were looking for Jingzhi?” He glanced at Huo Jinyan.
“I’ll settle the score with you later!”
Then, he turned around and quickly walked into the alley.
Huo Jinyan also heard Lu Qings muttering just now. He was stunned for a moment and seemed to understand why Lu Ning was in such a bad mood when she came.
So that’s the reason.
Huo Jinyan was rooted to the ground in frustration.
Lu Ning and Lu Jingzhi heard Lu Qings voice while they were halfway home.
Lu Qing ran over and caught up with the two of them.
Because of what happened in the morning, Lu Jingzhi did not want to talk to Lu Qing. He looked at Lu Qing and did not say anything.
Lu Ning looked at him and gave Lu Jingzhi to him. “Take Jingzhi home first. I’ll go back later.”
Although he was not very willing, Lu Jingzhi did not say anything when he saw his sister’s expression. He took the initiative to hold Lu Qings hand.
Lu Qing looked at Lu Nine. “Where are you going?”
Lu Ning did not answer this and only replied, “I’ll be back soon.”
Then, she turned around and left.
After Lu Ning turned around the corner and disappeared, Lu Jingzhi pulled his hand back.
Lu Qing: ???
Lu Jingzhi rolled his eyes at Lu Qing and walked into the neighborhood alone.
Lu Qing: ???
When Lu Ning walked forward alone, she could hear her heart pounding. It had not gone down since she started panicking. Even though Lu Jingzhi had been by her side just now and was holding her hand, she was still afraid.
When she reached the entranceway, Huo Jinyan had not yet left. He was leaning against the car under a street lamp, smoking, and looking a little lonely.
Lu Ning held her breath and quickly stepped forward. She knocked the cigarette out of his hand, stomped on it, and turned around to glare at him.
Huo Jinyan was stunned for a moment. He did not expect her to suddenly come out.
Lu Ning looked at him and punched Huo Jinyan in the chest.
Right on the heels of that, she continued to throw punch after punch.
“Why didn’t you say anything when you brought him away?! Can’t you just tell me?! Will you die if you call me?! Don’t you know that my whole family’s very anxious because we couldn’t find him?!”
With every word, she landed a punch on Huo Jinyan.
The more she spoke, the redder her eyes became, and the tears in them glistened, making Huo Jinyan’s heart ache.
“Why are you like this!?”
Lu Nings voice trembled with grievance. Huo Jinyan caught the punch and held her hand.
Lu Ning looked up at him, and tears fell from her eyes.
Seeing her cry, Huo Jinyan felt suffocated. He stepped forward and gently pulled her into his arms.
“Stop hitting me. You’re injured. I’ll let you hit me when you’re better, okay?”
His gentle voice entered Lu Nings ears. Lu Ning felt aggrieved and cried even harder.
Initially, she was just sobbing quietly, but after Huo Jinyan finished speaking, she started to wail.
Huo Jinyan was a little fl.u.s.tered. He raised his hand and patted her head to
comfort her. He wanted to wipe her tears when he heard her crying so miserably, but Lu Ning’s forehead was pressed against his chest, so he could not see her face at all.
As soon as he tried to move, Lu Ning grabbed his clothes to stop him from moving.. He could only stay where he was, touching the back of her neck again and again, his heart aching…
