Li Bingbing"s heart melted. She has always hated men who cheated on their lovers and Lu Xian Yu was like that back then, after all, he was a known Casanova.
That was one of the reasons why she couldn"t trust him completely and why she was so mean to him. But as she looked at him this time, for some reason, there was something inside her that told her that it was okay to trust him.
He was not the same man she knew back then.
She showed him her hand, "What are you waiting for? Give me my ring!"
Lu Xian Yu was happy to see the smile on her lips. Her eyes were s.h.i.+ning bright and he could see his own reflection in them... She was finally looking at him.
"Before that..." He paused. "Give me your wedding ring."
Li Bingbing blinked a few times.
"You can"t wear two rings, right?"
"Oh..." She looked at the ring that was around her finger... it was the ring that Xia Sinian gave to her.
Was she willing to finally let go of it?
She was hesitant about removing it. It was a precious thing for her, she always wanted it to be close to her.
Lu Xian Yu held her hand, he was about to remove it but Li Bingbing stopped him by holding his hand. "Wait."
He knew how important the ring was to her. The gentle smile on his face didn"t disappear as he said, "It"s alright, Bibi. Trust me."
She clenched his hand for a short while before she finally let go of it, allowing him to take the ring off.
He replaced it with the ring he prepared for her. He slowly slipped it around her ring finger.
After the ring was in place, he leaned down and kissed the ring he gave her.
"What are you going to do about that?" Li Bingbing couldn"t help but ask, looking at the other ring.
"This..." He looked at the old ring that was on his palm before he took something from his coat, it was a gold necklace.
She was surprised to see it. Was he planning on making the ring a necklace?
She watched him slipped the end of the golden lace in the ring before he looked at her, "Face me your back."
She obediently followed him, without a question. She arranged her long curly hair and raised it up, showing her neck to him.
Lu Xian Yu placed the necklace around her neck and after locking it, he rested his hands on her waist, "Is this okay?"
Li Bingbing held the ring that was hanging on the necklace. She actually felt touched by the sweet thing that Lu Xian Yu did. She was glad that he didn"t take the ring away from her, instead, he placed it close to her heart.
"Mm, thank you, Xian Yu."
Mengmeng: "Uwa! This is so pretty!"
Qinqing: "Are those fairies?!"
Little Spring: "Xiao Xing! Quick! Look! It"s so pretty!"
The children arrived at the place and were mesmerized by the fireflies that were flying around.
When Mengmeng saw her parents, she grinned at them, "Mama and daddy are here!"
She ran toward them, she hugged her mother"s legs. "Found you!"
Qinqing followed behind, "We were looking for you. Mama and dada suddenly disappeared."
Lu Xian Yu chuckled lightly, he patted the child"s head, "We were just having our alone time."
Qinqing pouted cutely, "Dada should have invited us! We want alone time with mama and dada too!"
Little Melon walked toward them, "Uncle Xian Yu, Mamie Jing Yue is looking for you."
Lu Xian Yu and Li Bingbing were shown to their own rooms while the children were together in one room.
They spent their weekend in the Lu family household before they went back to their own places.
In the middle of a cla.s.sroom activity, Qinqing"s friends were busy drawing, sharing ideas to each other.
It was then when one of his friends realized something when he turned to look at Qinqing"s name on the paper.
"Qinqing, why do you have a different family name than Mengmeng?"
"Yeah! Are you adopted?"
Qinqing who was busy coloring his work suddenly came into a pause. He was quiet for a while before he continued to color, "That"s because I am carrying papa"s name."
His friends tilted their heads in confusion, "But your papa has the same surname as Mengmeng."
"No, Papa is different from dada." He calmly answered without looking at them.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"I don"t get it."
"Me too!"
Qinqing sighed. He paused from doing his work before he finally looked at his friends, "You"re too young to understand."
"Oh..." They trailed off.
"Ah! Wait! Aren"t we the same age?"
"Yeah! Yeah!"
Qinqing turned away from them and continue to color, "I have a bigger brain than all of you."
"Oh..."
"Wait! Are you telling that we"re idiots?!" One of the boys remarked.
Qinqing gave them a blank look, "That"s what you said."
His friends pouted at his answer. They couldn"t blame him since he didn"t say that they were one.
"By the way, Qinqing, can you help me befriend your sister Mengmeng?"
"Yeah! Me too! I want to be her friend."
Qinqing"s brow twitched a bit. "My Jiejie only make friends with girls. You aren"t girls, so you can"t be her friend."
"Eh... how sad..."
Qinqing decided to ignore his friends. He went down from his seat and took the paper he was working on.
He left his friend and went to his teacher. A bright and adorable smile appeared in his expressionless face, "Teacher Mo! Look, Qinqing is done! Qinqing drew you!
Mo Lihua turned to look at Qinqing"s work and smiled gently at him, "Aww, how sweet of you." She patted his head, "Thank you, Qinqing."
Meanwhile, on Mengmeng"s side...
Everyone was busy doing an art activity as well. Qiang Wei, on the other hand, was watching a movie on his phone since the kids were busy.
After painting a flower, Mengmeng went to her teacher. Despite being a person with a high martial arts skill, for some reason, Qiang Wei wasn"t able to feel Mengmeng"s presence when she approached him.
She peeked and looked at the movie he was watching. It was currently a scene where the actor was doing CPR to a girl.
"Why is he doing that to her chest then kissing her?" She asked out of curiosity.
Qiang Wei was surprised to hear her beside him. "H-How... how were you able to get here?"
Mengmeng blinked a few times, "I walked."
Qiang Wei: "..."
Well... that was an obvious answer but that wasn"t what he meant. Could it be that she inherited this skill from his boss? That could be possible, right?
"Anyway, teacher Wei, you didn"t answer my question."
"O-oh... he was saving her life."
A deep frown appeared on Mengmeng"s face. "I"d rather die than to have a man touch my chest and kiss me, yuck."
Qiang Wei: "..."
Mengmeng placed her work on his desk before she walked towards the door.
"Where are you going?"
"I need to go to cr, teacher Wei." Mengmeng showed her hand to him. "Five minutes."
It became a routine to them, whenever Mengmeng was going to the restroom, she would always tell him how many minutes she"ll be out since she came to an agreement with him.
Qiang Wei gave her a nod in acknowledgment before he turned back to his phone and continued watching the movie.
