Chapter 948 - 952: A Family
While driving the car back outside the community, she immediately dialed the number Leng Lin had left her.
"Hello?!" On the other end, Leng Lin’s voice carried a hint of drowsiness.
"Dad, it’s me. I have an urgent matter and must see you immediately."
"Where are you?!"
"I’m on the road, heading into the city."
"There’s a Straw Man Teahouse by Jingshun Road. Wait for me there."
"Okay!"
An hour later, Luo Xiaoqian arrived at the Straw Man Teahouse. After parking the car, she carefully got out and pushed open the teahouse door.
Inside the teahouse, only a small lamp was lit on the counter. Leng Lin was sitting on a chair outside the counter. As soon as he saw her enter, he waved at her, "Come in, it’s perfectly safe here. Girl Qing, pour us two cups of tea."
"Okay." The young girl in a qipao standing behind the counter responded and turned to leave.
Luo Xiaoqian walked over and sat down across from him. By then, the young girl had already brought a pot of tea, poured them each a cup, and then silently retreated, disappearing from sight.
"What happened?" Leng Lin asked softly.
"It’s my fault. Zimo has a fracture. I went to the hospital to see him, and then accidentally ran into Seo Fei." Luo Xiaoqian frowned, "I pretended I was there for treatment and rushed to the emergency room. Later, she was taken away by a man."
Leng Lin slightly furrowed his eyebrows, about to say something, when Luo Xiaoqian’s phone rang.
Looking at the number on the screen, she hesitantly answered the call.
"Sister-in-law, it’s me, Zirui. Where are you? I have something urgent and must see you right away."
"Hold on." Luo Xiaoqian covered the mouthpiece and looked at Leng Lin, "It’s Zirui!"
"Let him come over. He knows this place," Leng Lin said.
"Okay." Luo Xiaoqian removed her hand, "Zirui, I’m with Dad at the Straw Man Teahouse. Come over directly."
Leng Zirui agreed and hung up the call.
Lowering her hand with the phone, Luo Xiaoqian picked up the tea from the table and took a small sip.
Sitting across the table, watching her calm expression, Leng Lin’s eyes showed a look of approval.
In such a situation, to still think of salvaging the situation as best as possible, compared to the innocent and pure young girl from five years ago, the Luo Xiaoqian in front of him had clearly matured.
These five years, this child has truly grown up.
"How is Mo Mo? Still safe?"
"With John accompanying him, and Zirui having installed the best security monitoring equipment at home, there’s no issue."
After the two finished their tea, a car stopped outside.
Seeing Luo Xiaoqian’s cautious expression, Leng Lin spoke softly, "No need to worry, it’s Zirui."
The door was pushed open, and a tall figure strode in. As expected, it was Leng Zirui.
"Qinger, add another cup for me!" Leng Zirui sat down at the table, "You both seem relaxed, still in the mood to have tea here?"
The girl Qinger came over, placed a blue and white porcelain cup in front of him, poured him a cup of tea herself, and then silently retreated into the darkness.
"Seo Fei saw me." Luo Xiaoqian’s tone carried a hint of helplessness.
"I know." Leng Zirui took out a recorder from his pocket, "That’s why I’m here for this matter!"
As he pressed the switch, voices of a conversation between Seo Fei and Tang Ming came from the recorder.
...
"I didn’t. I’m here for revenge."
"Revenge?! If you really wanted revenge, why did you delete those things of mine that could ruin him and leave him with nothing? Over the years, you haven’t forgotten him, have you?... Have you forgotten how he treated you five years ago? Have you forgotten the pain you’ve endured all these nights and days? Look in the mirror, look at yourself now. All of this is thanks to him!"
