"No!"
Without any hesitation, without any delay, Du Ruoxin denied it.
Because she had knelt for too long, when she was suddenly pulled up, her brain briefly lacked oxygen, and she felt dizzy and almost fainted.
"Mmm—"
With a low groan of pain, Du Ruoxin held her head.
Christiano, with one arm around her waist, frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Grace chimed in, "Sister Xin didn't eat dinner. It's probably low blood sugar."
Christiano directly scooped her up and ran towards the cafeteria.
He didn't care whose order the freshly stir-fried dishes were, he snatched them and placed them in front of Du Ruoxin, saying, "Eat!"
The person whose food was snatched: "..."
He really wanted to curse, to curse his ancestors, what kind of manners!
But glancing at the several bodyguards standing in a row, who were not to be trifled with, he could only meekly accept his misfortune.
Du Ruoxin was very upset by her elder brother's hooligan behavior and turned away, ignoring him.
Grace poured a bowl of water and asked the kitchen staff for sugar, then brought it to Du Ruoxin, "Sister Xin, drink some sugar water."
Du Ruoxin took it and gulped it down.
The feeling of panic and discomfort gradually subsided.
Putting down the bowl, she sternly got up and said, "Grace, let's go."
Christiano, who had been completely ignored from beginning to end: "?"
"Oh." Grace followed, but she saw Christiano's expression becoming increasingly unpleasant and felt a little panicked.
Could Sister Xin ignore him like this?
Just as Grace was about to link arms with Du Ruoxin, what she feared happened.
Christiano strode forward, pulled Du Ruoxin over, and with a fierce look, asked, "Are you angry with me?"
Du Ruoxin winced from the pain as he squeezed her, and couldn't help but frown.
Christiano couldn't bear to see her uncomfortable, so he loosened his grip, but did not let go.
Du Ruoxin did not look at her elder brother, but tilted her head and said to Grace, "From today onwards, I will be vegetarian."
"Do three good deeds every day."
"Chant Buddhist scriptures for an hour."
Christiano: "..."
Grace looked deeply at the increasingly fierce man, fearing he wouldn't understand, and echoed Du Ruoxin, "Okay, I've noted it down."
"Sister Xin, do you want to pay homage to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva, or Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva?"
Du Ruoxin: "What's the difference?"
Grace: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva symbolizes great vows; Samantabhadra Bodhisattva symbolizes great practice; Manjushri Bodhisattva symbolizes great wisdom; Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva symbolizes great compassion."
Du Ruoxin said solemnly, "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, to accumulate virtue for the family!"
Christiano: "..."
Seeing the two women singing a duet, how could he not understand what Xin'er was angry about?
He chuckled and hooked her chin, "Still angry?"
Du Ruoxin turned her head away, "Hmph!"
Christiano: "Alright, I promise you, I won't kill anyone anymore."
Even if he killed, he absolutely couldn't let Xin'er see.
Christiano cupped her face, their eyes meeting, "I promise, okay?"
Du Ruoxin's expression was still sullen.
Christiano explained as he led her back to the restaurant, "Actually, I don't kill innocent people indiscriminately."
"Lei, through his influence in FL country, secretly trafficked drugs and abducted women and children."
"I just removed this tumor for FL country."
Is that so?
Du Ruoxin looked at her elder brother with a hint of disbelief.
Christiano smiled faintly, "Otherwise, why do you think I was able to get out of prison?"
This...
Du Ruoxin couldn't figure it out.
Her elder brother's methods had always been omnipotent; not to mention the prison in FL country, even the Pentagon in the United States was easily accessible to her elder brother.
"Did you guarantee it yourself?" Du Ruoxin stared at him intently, "Regardless of whether the other party deserved to die, you won't kill anymore?"
Christiano chuckled and flicked her forehead, "You are my only bottom line."
This meant that as long as Du Ruoxin was not harmed, he could be very gentle and gentlemanly.
Du Ruoxin: "—"
Why did she become the culprit? This logic...
Before she could retort, Christiano's tone suddenly deepened, "Did you see Rong Jingyang?"
Du Ruoxin's heart skipped a beat. Did Trevor tell her elder brother that she had been alone with Rong Jingyang for more than ten hours?
For some reason, a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.
Du Ruoxin shivered.
Christiano took in the woman's reaction, his blue eyes dimmed, a hint of殺戮 flashed.
But he didn't ask any more questions.
He simply pulled her to sit down, and then said in a voice that betrayed no emotion, "After dinner, I'll take you back to Country A."
Du Ruoxin had no appetite for food. She looked at Christiano, "Brother, his injury, was it caused by you?"
Christiano narrowed his eyes, revealing a hint of danger, "He deserved to die."
Du Ruoxin: "..."
He had just promised not to kill indiscriminately, and the lie was exposed so quickly!
Du Ruoxin also got angry, "So, you want Dou Dou to hate me? To say I'm the culprit who caused her daddy's death?"
"You also want the Rong family to resent me, so I can never return to Country A, and never be able to kowtow to my mother?"
No way.
He had never thought that way.
Christiano looked at Xin'er's serious and cold face and was momentarily speechless.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Rong Jingyang isn't dead, is he?"
Du Ruoxin: "..."
Forget it, let's eat.
What result could she expect from talking to her elder brother?
—
The plane landed in E City. Du Ruoxin got into Christiano's car and headed to the kindergarten to see her daughter.
Dou Dou hadn't finished school yet. She wondered if the little girl would be shy after not seeing her for a year.
With a heart full of apprehension, Du Ruoxin waited outside the door.
Because she didn't have an access card, the security guard wouldn't let her pick up her child and stopped her outside the red line.
How could Christiano allow the woman he held in his palm to suffer any grievance?
He gave a look.
Several bodyguards quickly stepped forward and subdued the security guard.
"Whoosh—"
The crowd became lively.
Christiano seemed not to notice, pulling Du Ruoxin forward.
Du Ruoxin wished she could find a hole to crawl into. He was too unreasonable, too barbaric.
She pulled him, stopping him, "Christiano, you can't do this, hurry up and tell them to stop."
What if the police came later, it would be bad.
At this moment, Feng Linwan, who was in the crowd, also noticed the commotion at the door.
Ruoxin?
Has the daughter-in-law returned?
Feng Linwan quickly ran forward, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, this is my daughter-in-law."
Feng Linwan was a celebrity in E City, known to almost everyone.
Upon seeing Mrs. Rong, the security guard and the surrounding crowd put down their phones and did not call the police.
Christiano also stopped his bodyguards at Du Ruoxin's request.
"Mommy!"
"Mommy!"
At this moment, Rong Doudou saw Du Ruoxin and jumped and squeezed forward.
The kindergarten teacher was scared to death by Christiano's actions. She thought someone was trying to snatch the child.
Only when Mrs. Rong stepped forward to resolve the situation did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Hey, Doudou—"
The kindergarten teacher couldn't hold back the little girl, and Rong Doudou, like a little rabbit, darted to Du Ruoxin.
"Doudou!"
Her daughter, her darling.
Du Ruoxin picked up the little person who rushed over and kissed her repeatedly.
"Giggle giggle..."
Rong Doudou giggled, her little arms tightly hugging Du Ruoxin, "Mommy, you're not leaving again, are you?"
"Doudou misses Mommy."
"Doudou doesn't want to be a child without a mommy."
