“Mom, little brother also wants to pinky swear with you.” Joy immediately noticed his little brother’s small actions and shouted with joy and pride.
Zhao Youlin was stunned for a moment and stretched out her hand to hook a finger with her little son.
The little brat was finally satisfied. He giggled, revealing his bright and clean teeth.
Joy proudly raised his head from the side, and that smug little look seemed to be saying, “See, see, I was right, my little brother is the smartest.”
Zhao Youlin could not help but laugh when she saw her eldest son’s expression. She reached out and rubbed Joy’s little head.
When she saw her two sons’ innocent smiles, the unease and uncertainty in Zhao Youlin’s heart mysteriously vanished.
So what if Lu Shu was out there to cause trouble? So what if it was Lu Xiangtian? She was now Zhao Youlin, the eldest lady of the Zhao family. She had parents who doted on her, a husband who doted on her, and two cute children. She was very happy now, and she would never allow anyone to ruin this happiness.
The facts proved that Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng’s guesses were not completely unfounded. Not long after, Lu Xiangtian found Zhao Youlin. However, this time, he was not waiting for Zhao Youlin to get off work at the gate of the Zhao Corporation. Instead, he was waiting for Zhao Youlin to go to work at the gate of the Zhao Corporation.
Zhao Youlin had just said goodbye to Mu Tingfeng and was about to enter the company when a car blocked her way with an absolutely domineering att.i.tude. Then, a familiar figure walked out of the car.
“Ms. Zhao, the master has invited you for a visit.”
Zhao Youlin was stunned. Soon, she saw the rear window of the car roll down, revealing Lu Xiangtian’s expressionless face.
Compared to the last time they met, Lu Xiangtian’s aura had become more unpredictable. The warm smile that he had shown to her earlier had faded, and his face had become cold and gloomy, striking fear into hearts.
Zhao Youlin’s heart skipped a beat, but she knew very well that this was the real Lu Xiangtian, and the previous one… was just a facade that this person had put on.
“Ms. Zhao, Ms. Zhao…” The middle-aged man who had approached her saw that Zhao Youlin did not respond for a long time. He knew all too well that Zhao Youlin was not willing to take their car like last time, so he could not help but call Zhao Youlin a few more times. He added in a pleading tone, “Ms. Zhao, please don’t make things difficult for us.”
Zhao Youlin felt as if she had just woken up from a dream. She met the middle-aged man’s fearful yet pleading gaze and quickly understood what he meant. She sighed and said, “Open the door.”
Some people were not easy to dissuade. It was better to get this over with, the sooner the better.
The man was stunned for a moment before he finally reacted. He was visibly overjoyed as he opened the car door for Zhao Youlin.
Zhao Youlin took the opportunity to sit in the back seat beside Lu Xiangtian.
“Ms. Zhao…” Lu Xiangtian immediately opened his mouth as soon as Zhao Youlin sat down.
Zhao Youlin quickly interrupted him and said coldly, “Mr. Lu, you turned up at the entrance of my company, making demands. And now, are we about to have a talk right where we are?”
Lu Xiangtian was stunned and quickly understood what Zhao Youlin meant. He glanced at the people coming and going, and from time to time, people looked at the Zhao family’s entrance with visible unease. Lu Xiangtian had to admit that this was indeed a little inappropriate.
“Head home.”
“Wait.” As soon as Lu Xiangtian said this, Zhao Youlin immediately interrupted him.
What a joke. She was not a fool to go to the Lu family at this time. Based on Lu Xiangtian’s current situation, who knew if he would not attempt to keep her captive?
“There is a good cafe nearby. The environment is beautiful. Most of the people are at work at this time, so I think it is relatively quiet. Mr. Lu, if you don’t mind, Let’s go there and talk.”
Lu Xiangtian thought about it and did not want to trouble Zhao Youlin any further at that moment. He nodded and agreed with Zhao Youlin’s suggestion.
After all, she was taken away in front of the Zhao family’s gate. Many people saw and recognized Zhao Youlin. Therefore, as soon as Zhao Youlin left with Lu Xiangtian, someone sent the news to Xiao Li.
When Xiao Li heard that her president was taken away by a few fierce men in a black car, she immediately had a bad feeling.
Xiao Li hesitated for a moment, but she still called Mu Tingfeng and told him what had happened at the entrance.
Mu Tingfeng heard Xiao Li’s description and immediately understood that Lu Xiangtian had come to look for Zhao Youlin. After giving Xiao Li a few simple words of precaution, he rushed out of the company without thinking. At the same time, he asked someone to find out Zhao Youlin’s exact location. At the same time, he called the Su Family to prepare for a rainy day.
The driver drove Zhao Youlin and Xiao Li to the coffee shop that Zhao Youlin had mentioned. Just as Zhao Youlin had expected, the coffee shop was basically empty at this time. The two of them found a quiet spot. There were a few tall and burly bodyguards guarding the side, scaring the customers inside the shop. Although they were very curious, no one dared to go forward. Instead, they ensured that the two of them had a quiet conversation.
“Ms. Zhao, I’m not going to beat around the bush with you. After I came to find you the other day, I went back to verify that Lu Shu was indeed not my biological daughter. I came here today to ask you who the owner of the necklace in your hand is.”
Zhao Youlin was not too surprised by Lu Xiangtian’s words. After all, she had witnessed the splendid show not long ago, and she had expected Lu Xiangtian to come to her.
“Mr. Lu, are you saying that you suspect my friend to be your long-lost biological daughter?”
Lu Xiangtian nodded with a solemn expression.
Zhao Youlin’s heart trembled. Although she had expected Lu Xiangtian to think in this direction, she could not help but be distracted when she heard Lu Xiangtian’s guess.
“Mr. Lu, are you thinking too much? My friend, she…” Zhao Youlin was just about to tell Lu Xiangtian that her so-called friend was once a rich kid with a happy family, and that she was not an orphan who did not know her parents, but Lu Xiangtian had already spoken before her.
“Ms. Zhao, before we go on, I have a small request.”
Zhao Youlin was stunned. “What request?”
Lu Xiangtian, who had been calm and composed since he appeared, finally showed a different expression of agitation and eagerness. “If I remember correctly, Ms. Zhao once said that there was a photo embedded in the necklace. The photo was that of your friend and her birth mother.”
Zhao Youlin was stunned for a moment and cursed in her heart. At that time, in order to increase the credibility of her words, she had revealed to Lu Xiangtian that there was a photo embedded in the necklace.
Now that Lu Xiangtian wanted to find someone, which path could not be more obvious? Zhao Youlin secretly cursed herself for being overwhelmed by shock and speaking without thinking. At the same time, she racked her brain to think of a reason to deceive Lu Xiangtian.
