By the time Lu Qing drove home, it was already the wee hours of the morning.

Normally when he returned home, other than the floor lamps in the yard still emitting some light, the entire villa was pitch black, and the surroundings were completely silent.

However, tonight, for the first time, his bedroom on the second floor was lit up with warm yellow light …

Needless to say, it should be her.

Inside the carriage, Lu Qing extinguished the flames and first picked up the cigarette case beside him. From within, he took out a cigarette and leisurely smoked it. In the small carriage, because there was no window, the smoke instantly filled up.

In the dense smoke, Lu Qing's face did not reveal any overly obvious expression. His entire body was very calm as he leaned his back against the car seat and focused on smoking the cigarette in his hand. This lazy posture, coupled with Lu Qing's originally well-defined face, actually gave off an indescribable temptation …

In next to no time, a cigarette had burned to the end. Only when the faint pain of being burnt by the smoke came from his fingertips did Lu Qing come back to his senses, snuffed out his cigarette, and then pushed open the door to get out of the car.

He opened the door and entered the room. The living room was still as dark as it used to be.

While loosening his tie with his hand, Lu Qing walked towards the bedroom upstairs. As he went upstairs, he naturally opened the bedroom door.

However, when he clearly saw the person sitting on the bed, Lu Qing's eyebrows knitted together in astonishment. His entire person seemed to have been nailed down, and he instantly didn't have any other reactions.

As if he couldn't believe it, Lu Qingjin just stood there in a daze, his hand still maintaining the motion of opening the door. However, his gaze never left the body of the person sitting on the bed, unwilling to leave even after a long time …

Only after a few seconds had passed did Lu Qingshen react. However, when he reacted to it, Lu Qingshen seemed to have transformed into a completely different person. His entire body emitted a cold aura, and even the voice that opened his mouth brought along icy shards.

"Why is it you?"

It was just two simple words, but it made Qiao Yifan's heart tremble even after hearing it. Even the hand holding the sheet tightened.

Actually, from the moment he heard the sound of Lu Qing's car turning off its engine, Qiao Yifan had already thought of the scene where he was going to meet Lu Qing face to face.

But thinking about it, when he really met Lu Qing, Qiao Yifan was so nervous that he was about to die.

Due to being overly nervous, beads of cold sweat appeared on his palms, causing the sheets in his hands to become slightly moist. The long fan-like eyelashes of Qiao Yifan, who was originally hanging his head, slightly trembled. Only then did he somewhat timidly raise his head and look at Lu Qingzhen, who was standing at the doorway.

For a moment, the two pairs of eyes met …

"I …"

Qiao Yifan wanted to explain something, but he didn't know where to start. She couldn't say it was because her sister was missing, so she had to come over stiffly on her behalf, could she?

Besides, there was another very important reason, but she couldn't say it out loud …

Seeing Qiao Yifan stutter for a long time without being able to explain himself, Lu Qingzhen clearly lost his patience. Without saying anything further, he strode forward with large strides, and like lifting a little chick, pulled Qiao Yifan who was sitting beside the bed, and dragged her by the arm towards the outside.

Ah!" Lu Qingjin, what are you doing? Let me go! "Lighten up, you're hurting me!" Qiao Yifan pushed Lu Qingshen's arm, trying to resist and not let Lu Qing drag him out, but no matter what he did, he couldn't stand up.

Previously, she had also thought that Lu Qing's reaction would be this way, but she hadn't expected that Lu Qing's reaction would be so intense.

Lu Qing grabbed her arm deeply, and his hand strength was so strong that it seemed as if he wanted to grab her wrist and break it. Qiao Yifan was in pain, so he had no choice but to make a sound to make Lu Qing soften his grip.

However, it was still as if Lu Qingzhen had just returned from the North Pole and the aura surrounding him was still frigid to the point of death. However, unknowingly, the strength of the hand which was grabbing Qiao Yifan had decreased by quite a bit.

The distance from the bed to the bedroom door was not very far, only ten steps, but because Lu Qing was dragging Qiao Yifan along, and because Qiao Yifan was not really willing to, the distance between the two of them, who were merely ten steps away, was like three minutes.

No matter how much Qiao Yifan tried to dawdle, the distance was still limited. In the end, he was dragged by Lu Qingzhen to the door of the bedroom. Lu Qing Chen threw Qiao Yifan out, and in the next second, he was about to slam the door shut.

When Qiao Yifan saw that Lu Qing was about to close the door, he reflexively blocked the door with his hand. Just as the door was about to close, Lu Qing suddenly grabbed the door, preventing Qiao Yifan's hand from entering the door.

With his strength just now when he slammed the door, even Lu Qing himself didn't dare to imagine what would happen if the door was really clamped onto Qiao Yifan's slender jade hand, as it continuously became half-crippled …

"Qiao Yifan! You're f * cking crazy! "Stop the door with your hands!"

Luckily, he moved quickly, so Qiao Yifan was fine. However, as he looked at Qiao Yifan, who was completely fine, Lu Qing thought back to Qiao Yifan blocking the door with his hand, and his entire body became red from anger. His mind was still in a state of shock, and he uncontrollably roared at Qiao Yifan.

"If I don't block the door... Why don't you... Did you block me from the door? " Amidst his rage, Qiao Yifan was still very afraid of Lu Qingzhu. Thus, he did not dare to raise his head to look at Lu Qingzhen from the start. Qiao Yifan replied in a noncommittal manner.

After Qiao Yimo's words, even Lu Qingzhen didn't know what to say for a moment. He could only gloomily stare at the top of Qiao Yifan's head.

That burning gaze was as if it wanted to pierce through Qiao Yifan's head to a frightening degree …

"Qiao Yimo, I really underestimated you!" Heh, I clearly remember when you were opposed to our marriage, your attitude was exceptionally resolute! "What, in less than a week's time, you're so impatient to come and seduce your brother-in-law?" Lu Qing looked deeply at Qiao Yifan and said with a sneer. His tone even contained endless ridicule.

"You … Don't you know why I'm here? Did Uncle Lu and Auntie Lu not tell you the reason? " Qiao Yifan slowly raised his head to look at Lu Qingzhen. His big, watery eyes flickered as he stared unblinkingly at Lu Qingzhen and asked innocently.

Although Qiao Yifan's heart felt like it was being gnawed on by ants after hearing Lu Qing's extremely harsh words, he was fortunate that he had already mentally prepared himself so that he wouldn't lose his composure in front of Lu Qing.

Qiao Yifan carefully deliberated for a moment, but still felt that the reason for his visit today was not something she could ask herself. Thus, she tossed the question to Lu Qingzhen.

Qiao Yifan's innocent expression, at this moment, actually had an indescribable cuteness in the depths of Lu Qing's eyes, causing his mind to be thrown into chaos.

However, even though everything was chaotic, Lu Qingzhen was still able to catch the important information in Qiao Yifan's words.

Did his parents tell him?

Hearing Qiao Yifan's words, Lu Qing's brows unconsciously furrowed. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and immediately took out the phone in his pocket. However, the phone actually went out of battery and shut down automatically.

Lu Qing turned around and entered the bedroom with a depressed expression.

Qiao Yifan, who was standing outside the bedroom, saw Lu Qingjin turn around and enter. He was about to lift his heel to enter, but just as Qiao Yifan's left foot was two centimeters from the ground, Lu Qingling's cold voice suddenly rang out beside his ear.

"Stand still, don't move!"

Hearing Lu Qing's words, Qiao Yifan seemed to have been struck by lightning. Like a conditioned reflex, he withdrew his foot that had just been lifted up. His entire being was like that of a primary school student, obediently standing at the door without moving an inch.

His phone was filled with electricity, and it was quickly turned on. Lu Qing looked at the screen, and sure enough, there was a text message from his parents.
