Chapter 216

But facing Lu Qiaoge's clear, downward-looking gaze.

For some reason, the words of exposure were forcibly swallowed back.

If he said Lu Qiaoge tripped him, would Lu Qiaoge turn around and complain?

She would!

Her eyes were full of threats.

Heavens, Qin Hengzhi, big nephew, do you know you're dating a snake-hearted woman?

It's just that he wasn't very familiar with Qin Hengzhi, and he had been disciplined by him for his sharp tongue.

Bai Lao walked over slowly, and at this moment, Lu Yaqin also came out of the kitchen upon hearing the sound.

Seeing her son lying on the ground, she was startled and instinctively looked toward Qin Hengzhi.

Did Qin Hengzhi hit her son?

Lu Yaqin clenched her hands hanging by her sides.

Bai Lao felt a headache; he was already sixteen, yet he was still as troublesome as a naughty child.

Qin Hengzhi asked again: "Do you want to call an ambulance?"

Bai Xiaoze gritted his teeth, climbed up from the ground, and looked angrily at Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge standing in front of him.

Especially Lu Qiaoge.

Was this girl really that bold?

After he said those things, he thought her reaction should be shame and anger but unable to speak, and the worst situation would be her crying and complaining to Qin Hengzhi.

But so what?

He would bite to death and not admit it; who could do anything to him?

But who would have thought that things didn't develop as he had thought.

Qin Hengzhi intuitively felt that this kid had said something inappropriate and had been disciplined by Lu Qiaoge.

He placed his hand on Bai Xiaoze's shoulder and then patted it lightly.

He said in a strange tone: "It's good that you're okay."

Bai Lao's eyes dimmed, but he didn't speak.

Bai Jinxin glanced at the dejected Bai Xiaoze. Was this because he had offended Lu Qiaoge and then been disciplined by her?

She was really curious about how Lu Qiaoge had disciplined Bai Xiaoze.

Lu Qiaoge wasn't a simple girl.

Only such a girl could be worthy of her peerless big nephew.

She said to Qin Hengzhi with a smile: "If you don't take Qiao Ge out for a walk, I'll take Qiao Ge out for a walk."

Qin Hengzhi glanced at Lu Qiaoge. If you want to stay, stay; if you don't want to stay, I'll take you away.

Lu Qiaoge smiled at him.

She knew what Qin Hengzhi meant, but she didn't know if Qin Hengzhi understood her thoughts.

The next moment, Qin Hengzhi said: "Qiao Ge, there's a small park over there. I'll take you for a walk."

Bai Lao immediately said: "Go, go. The scenery over there is quite good."

Lu Qiaoge was taken out to play by Qin Hengzhi.

Bai Jinxin's face darkened. She wanted to say something, but thinking of Bai Xiaoze's habit of getting more and more energetic the more he talked, she dismissed the idea.

The living room fell into a strange silence. Bai Lao sighed silently.

Many things couldn't be done or said; they could only be left to time.

Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge walked by the lake. It was very quiet here. Qin Hengzhi asked Lu Qiaoge: "Did Bai Xiaoze offend you?"

Lu Qiaoge just naturally told Qin Hengzhi what had happened just now.

And then she had tripped Bai Xiaoze.

Lu Qiaoge said with a grin: "Your grandfather's eyes are very sharp; he probably guessed it, but I think he didn't say anything."

Qin Hengzhi gave a light "hmm" and then said: "Lu Yaqin was originally a nanny in the family. A year after my grandmother passed away, my grandfather married her... you know, this identity is still very sensitive. My grandfather didn't tell his children or the organization the reason, nor did he say how much he liked her; he just submitted the marriage report according to regulations. I was young and didn't understand then, but later when I was older, I should have roughly understood."

Lu Qiaoge wasn't surprised.

But in fact, weren't there such things?

The world is full of wonders.

It couldn't be called shocking, it was just that the original children didn't accept it.

Similarly, there wouldn't be any sister-brother or brotherly feelings toward Bai Xiaoze either.

But everyone was a decent person, and no one would tear their faces apart.

Qin Hengzhi continued: "Bai Xiaoze grew up in the compound. There are some people who don't hope for others to do well. Thus, under the guidance of those with ulterior motives, Bai Xiaoze was often ridiculed. Perhaps in his view, it would be better to be a farmer's son, because he felt my grandfather hadn't brought him anything."

Qin Hengzhi curled his lips indifferently when he said this.

He then continued: "He doesn't have a very good relationship with his mother either. But it might also be the rebellious phase."

Maybe so; a teenager at this age was just in a posture of not obeying anyone.

"I actually rarely come here, and grandfather is busy too. Even if I come, I might not be able to see him. Today he stayed at home on purpose."

But before Lu Qiaoge could speak, a girl ran over from afar.

Qin Hengzhi narrowed his eyes; it was actually An Leilei.

Was she looking for Lu Qiaoge?

An Leilei quickly ran to Brother Lu Qiao. Qin Hengzhi said: "I'll go ahead and wait for you."

An Leilei watched Qin Hengzhi leave, her breathing evened out, and then she smiled: "Didn't disturb you two, did I?"

Lu Qiaoge chose to tell the truth: "No, you did."

An Leilei chuckled, then said: "Brother Qiao, I like all the clothes you helped me buy. Thank you, Brother Qiao."

During the trade fair, An Leilei went out of town to perform with the troupe and missed the trade fair.

Lu Qiaoge called Lu Min's unit. She knew Lu Min knew An Leilei, so she asked Lu Min to find her. She paid the money first and chose more than 300 yuan worth of things for An Leilei.

It wasn't too much or too little, just about right.

Then Lu Min took them to the provincial family compound for An Leilei.

Lu Min naturally hoped to be on good terms with An Leilei, so she agreed very readily.

And Lu Qiaoge also helped her choose a few pieces along the way.

An Leilei returned the night before last.

She was so happy with the new clothes that she originally wanted to go to 516 to find Lu Qiaoge and pay her back today, but she heard that Bai Lao's grandson, Qin Hengzhi, had brought his partner for a visit.

She also heard that Bai Lao was very serious about this and had even pushed back several meetings.

She handed the 358 yuan to Lu Qiaoge, her voice soft: "Qiao Ge, you're so good, thank you."

Immediately after, she added: "I won't disturb you and Qin Hengzhi anymore. When there's a chance, I'll treat you to a meal."

Meanwhile, Lu Yaqin was in the kitchen, her eyes unconsciously watching the winter melon and pork rib soup in the casserole, while her two hands were tightly clenched together.

A trace of envy surged in her heart, but in fact, it was more jealousy.

They were both from small, humble households, so why was it that when she married Bai Lao, everyone was saying she was climbing a high branch and cursing her for being shameless?

She even implicated her son in being excluded by children of the same age in this compound.

Not to mention Bai Jinxin and her two brothers, who had never put her in their eyes.

But was this her fault?

She just wanted to make her own life a little better.

Ask yourself, what woman doesn't want to marry a good man?

If you have the opportunity, why not seize it?

Was Lu Qiaoge's dating Qin Hengzhi very simple?

Wasn't she trying to use Qin Hengzhi to enter this circle?

What ability could she possibly have?

That woman Bai Jinxin, in order to add gold to her face, closed her eyes and praised her against her conscience.
