Chapter 212 I Know, Mom
He remained motionless, only glancing at her out of the corner of his eye.

Her scent and light breath filled my nostrils.

His gaze could finally fall on her openly and legitimately.

Kuang Xu glanced at the rearview mirror and found it completely unbearable to look at.

He took out his phone and snapped a picture of it in the rearview mirror.

Hearing the noise, Shen Yanci met his gaze.

Kuang Xu compared a number: 100,000.

"..."

We've arrived at the hotel.

So fast.

Shen Yanci adopted a nonchalant expression again.

Lin Shi touched his mouth: "Have we arrived?"

Qin Zhao hummed in response, briefly lifted his eyelids, and then leaned back in.

It took her a while to regain her senses. When she looked up, she met a pair of dark eyes.

The creases on his eyelids deepened, and his sleepy eyes slowly regained their clarity.

She glanced out the window, swallowed hard, and got out of the car.

The weight on my shoulders disappeared, leaving me with a sense of loss.

Shen Yanci got off the car.

As Kuang Xu and Lin Shi were talking, his eyes met Qin Zhao's, and she immediately turned her gaze away.

Before Qin Zhao could even hug Qin Qiong, Lin Shi preemptively complained, "Qin Zhao just fought a robber for a camera on the street!"

"A robber?" Qin Qiong exclaimed in surprise, pulling her aside to check her over. "Are you hurt?"

Qin Zhao was annoyed with Lin Shi. She said, "No, someone tried to steal my camera, and I protected it."

"I'm not hurt." Qin Zhao hugged Qin Qiong and complained, "My brother scolded me, he scolded me in the street in front of many people."

They even joined others in cursing me.

"Was I insulting you?" Lin Shi choked back tears. "You deserve to be insulted! The camera was perfectly fine with Shen Yanci. If it got snatched, he would have been the one protecting it. Why did you rush in?"

Qin Zhao opened his mouth: "That's my camera, of course I'll protect it."

"What if he has a knife? The camera is more important than you!"

Qin Zhao was intimidated by his imposing presence. Lin Shi scoffed, "Fool."

"..."

Lin Shi scolded her for being a fool, and Qin Zhao almost laughed out of anger.

Qin Qiong: "How dare you speak like that?"

Lin Shi snorted.

Qin Qiong checked him over again: "Are you alright?"

"How could I be injured?" Lin Shi said. "I almost caught that robber."

Qin Zhao: "You're not afraid of him having a knife now."

"Can you compare to me?"

Why can't I compare to you?

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Qin Qiong said, "Stop!"

The two of them snorted at each other, neither of them looking at the other.

"First and foremost, safety comes first; nothing else matters." Qin Qiong pointed at the two of them. "Both of you. Did you hear me?"

Qin Zhao: "I heard you."

Lin Shi: "I heard you."

"The older brother knows how to protect his younger sister and is worried about her safety. He even told his mother when he got home, which is very good."

Lin Shi raised his chin slightly.

Qin Qiong changed the subject:
"But you can't scold your sister in front of so many people." Qin Qiong sighed. "Can't you express your concern properly?"

"Zhao Zhao has just been through danger and is very emotional. Your tone is so harsh that even your concern will sound wrong to her."

Qin Zhao glanced at Lin Shi.

“Zhaozhao, you can’t do such dangerous things next time. Your brother is right, what if the other person had a knife?” Qin Qiong’s eyes flashed with lingering fear. “What would I do?”

Qin Zhao couldn't stand Qin Qiong's gaze, so she hugged him and rubbed against him, saying, "I'm fine."

"Thankfully, nothing's wrong."

"I know mom."

"Being coquettish won't work." Qin Qiong pursed her lips, her voice serious. "Will you do it again next time?"
