After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies
Chapter 1112: Moving into the Xiao Family
After saying that, Xiao Jincheng instructed his men to arrange accommodations for the two of them, seemingly taking it very seriously.
Seeing Xiao Jincheng's attitude, Lin Yuqing looked at Xiao Mingyang, who gave her a reassuring look, and Lin Yuqing's tense heart slowly calmed down.
Lin Yuqing's relieved expression made Zhang Kaifeng frown.
What is Xiao Mingyang doing?! Doesn't he know Xiao Jincheng's murderous intent towards Yuqing?! He even arranged for her to live in the Xiao family home; he's practically asking for too much peace and quiet from Yuqing!!
With his hands clenched into fists, Zhang Kaifeng glanced deeply at Xiao Mingyang, his thoughts beginning to stir.
Si Wen, on the other side, didn't say a word from beginning to end. He just watched the situation unfold silently, a playful smile playing on his lips.
Perhaps Xiao Jincheng already knew of his existence when he chose Lilith as an ally, but he didn't stop her, indicating that he had long wanted Lilith to fend for herself. Strangely, Xiao Jincheng hasn't taken action against me yet; presumably, he needs me to keep these people in check.
Xiao Jincheng, that old fox, managed to make these people fight each other without firing a single shot, so he could reap the benefits. He really has a brilliant scheme!
Why did Xiao Mingyang allow Lin Yuqing to wade back into this mess? Xiao Mingyang is such a shrewd man, he shouldn't let his woman be in danger, so what was his purpose in doing this?
Just as Si Wen was trying to figure out everyone's intentions, Xiao Jincheng coughed twice and said in a hoarse voice, "Since everyone has the chance to gather at our Xiao family, let's all stay for dinner. Let this old man do his best to be a good host."
But as soon as Xiao Jincheng finished speaking, Xiao Mingyang put his arm around Lin Yuqing's shoulder, looking completely indifferent, and said, "I'm sorry, Grandpa, Yuqing and I are tired, so we won't be going downstairs for dinner tonight. Thank you for your kindness."
After saying that, Xiao Mingyang turned to look at Zhang Kaifeng and said, "Thank you for your help these past few days. I'll treat you to a meal another time when I have time."
A seemingly innocuous remark seemed to ignite Zhang Kaifeng's powder keg. He glared angrily at Xiao Mingyang and his wife, saying, "I thought you two had strong principles, but it turns out you're just opportunists. If I had known this, why would I have gone through fire and water for you? It's such a waste of my time!"
This was the first time Lin Yuqing had seen Zhang Kaifeng lose his temper. She was at a loss and was about to say something when Zhang Kaifeng turned around and left the Xiao family. His back was resolute, leaving no room for turning back.
Watching Zhang Kaifeng's retreating figure with bated breath, Lin Yuqing was about to take a step to chase after him when Xiao Mingyang grabbed her wrist and said in a deep voice, "Don't pay any attention to him. Does he think he can show off in front of me just because he helped me with a little thing? How ridiculous!"
"but……"
"Alright, Yuqing, let's go back to our rooms and rest. We can talk about the rest tomorrow."
After saying that, Xiao Mingyang didn't even glance at Xiao Jincheng, and took Lin Yuqing's hand as they walked up the stairs.
As he watched the people around him leave one by one, Si Wen put his hands in his pockets, smiled, and said, "Looks like the show's over, and I should leave too."
Xiao Jincheng asked someone to turn his wheelchair around and said meaningfully, "Whenever you have some free time, you can come and take a look. There might even be an encore scene, who knows!"
With a cold smile on his lips, Si Wen said in a wicked voice, "Thank you for the reminder, Master Xiao!"
……
Lin Yuqing never dreamed that one day she would be living in the Xiao family home. This place had once been her nightmare, where the people she cared about and cherished were imprisoned and suffering, while she could only yearn for them from the other side of the ocean.
Now that she has moved into the Xiao family home, she finds it is not as gloomy and terrifying as she had imagined. It is similar to an ordinary wealthy family home, except that the house is a bit bigger and there are more servants.
The only thing that made Lin Yuqing happy here was that she could see Xuan'er anytime. Even though Lin Yuqing couldn't interfere with Xuan'er's studies, at least she could take care of his daily life and watch him grow up day by day.
With his parents by his side, Xuan'er was naturally happy, but he also knew what kind of person Xiao Jincheng was. He hated his mother so much, yet he agreed to let her stay, so he must be plotting something he couldn't tell anyone.
To ensure Mommy's safety, she must leave the Xiao family. If Mommy were alone, he might be able to find a way to get her away. But now, even Daddy is on her side, making it much harder.
But strangely, even though Dad knew that Grandpa would harm Mom, why did he still encourage Mom to stay?
What is Xuan'er thinking about?
Just as Xuan'er was daydreaming, Lin Yuqing had already brought lunch to his room and said with a smile.
Xuan'er's gaze fell on the wontons in front of her. She glanced deeply at Lin Yuqing, then slowly picked up the spoon and gently stirred the wontons in the bowl.
Seeing that Xuan'er didn't seem to have much of an appetite, Lin Yuqing quickly asked, "What's wrong? Don't you have any appetite?"
Xuan'er shook her head, then asked, "Mommy, aren't you and Daddy bored here?"
"No, Mommy also has to take care of Xuan'er, so her days are very fulfilling."
"What about Dad? What can he do here? He can't just play chess with Great-Grandpa to pass the time, can he?"
Lin Yuqing knew what Xuan'er wanted to ask, so she reached out and touched Xuan'er's hair, and said with a smile, "Although Dad doesn't like playing chess with Great-Grandpa, there's still Da Zhong here. You should know Da Zhong; he's like a ray of sunshine. When you're with him, you'll find that all your worries disappear without you even realizing it."
Lin Yuqing's words made a lot of sense, but when the clock was mentioned, Xuan'er's brows furrowed even more.
After a few moments of disillusionment, Xuan'er looked up again with a bright smile on her face and asked, "Mommy, when Daddy has time, can I play with him for a while?"
"Of course."
Lin Yuqing couldn't be happier with Xuan'er's request. However, she wanted Xiao Mingyang to mention to Xiao Jincheng that it was too cruel for a six-year-old child to study from morning till night without any rest.
When Lin Yuqing conveyed Xuan'er's little wish to Xiao Mingyang, he knew that Xuan'er had something to say to him.
In fact, even without asking Xuan'er, Xiao Mingyang knew what he wanted to say: he wanted Xuan'er to persuade Lin Yuqing to leave the Xiao family as soon as possible and go to a safe place.
The conversation that followed their meeting confirmed what Xiao Mingyang had in mind.
Xuan'er looked at Xiao Mingyang with a serious expression, her demeanor more mature than Xiao Mingyang's.
"Dad, you must have heard what Great-Grandpa did to Mommy that day at the Xiao family's house, right? Why didn't you take Mommy away from the Xiao family's house? It's dangerous here!"
