Chapter 403: Chapter 403: Won’t You Invite Me In to Sit?
"Comrade, that’s not how you should be talking. That person directly contacted our superiors, we have no choice but to release him."
Xiao Anze was about to say something else when suddenly a disdainful female voice sounded nearby.
"Hmpf~ Such a flirtatious woman, just living off her looks, who knows how many high officials she has slept with."
Xiao Anze’s eyes narrowed dangerously as he turned to look at the woman who spoke, "Tan Biyang?"
Tan Biyang was startled, "You know me?"
"Hmpf~ Just a scandal-ridden actress. Most people who know you do so because of your scandals."
Xiao Anze’s gaze was filled with undisguised disgust. He had seen far too many women like her in his lifetime, either stepping on others to climb up the ranks or using their bodies to do so. Whichever it was, they were all beneath his contempt.
Tan Biyang’s face turned from pale to flushed, as anyone would feel uncomfortable being spoken to like that. Instead of responding, she quietly awaited her lawyer’s negotiations with the police.
Seeing Xiao Qing wasn’t there, he left the police station and called her only to get no response.
He couldn’t figure out who had picked them up.
-
Back in Jinxiu Garden, Xiao Qing returned home with Dabao and Xiaobao. Lu Jinyang did not follow, which inexplicably relieved her.
Ever since she found out this man was very likely Dabao and Xiaobao’s biological father, she had been fearful of interacting with him, an inexplicable feeling.
However, as she opened the door and was about to close it, the man’s figure suddenly appeared outside the door, staring deeply at her, which nearly made her scream.
"Why are you here without saying anything?"
"What should I say?"
"Are you here for something?"
The look in Lu Jinyang’s eyes turned into one of longing as he glanced inside, "Aren’t you inviting me in for a sit?"
"Sorry, I’m about to cook, I’m afraid..."
"Perfect, I’m hungry too." With that, he bypassed Xiao Qing and walked straight to the two children on the sofa.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Qing quietly went to the kitchen to start cooking. She glanced at the time; it was already one-thirty in the afternoon. If she finished cooking, it should be around two-thirty.
After thinking a bit, she took out tomatoes, eggs, and noodles which were always available in the refrigerator and decided to make tomato and egg noodles.
In the living room, Xiaobao nestled on Lu Jinyang’s body, quietly eating something, while Dabao focused on playing a game.
Lu Jinyang watched for a while, then suddenly pointed at a character on the screen and said, "Go left~"
Dabao, interrupted, looked displeased at Lu Jinyang, "Why are you disturbing my game?"
"Going left will save a lot of time."
Dabao was annoyed, "Going right works just the same."
Facing Dabao’s anger, Lu Jinyang said nothing, took his iPad, and started a new round of the game.
After a minute, Dabao’s expression changed from disdain to shock, then to admiration...
After a while, Lu Jinyang handed back the iPad to him and asked, "Did you see it clearly?"
Dabao nodded earnestly, his look at Lu Jinyang completely transformed.
He tried playing the game again using Lu Jinyang’s method and found this approach much more practical than what he had been doing initially, making his admiration for Lu Jinyang grow.
Lu Jinyang watched the content Dabao with a slight upturn of his lips.
"Dabao, Xiaobao, it’s time to wash hands and eat."
Xiaobao suddenly threw the snacks in her hand and looked toward the kitchen with surprise and delight, "Wow, brother, Mommy made tomato and egg noodles."
Dabao glanced at her sideways, "I smell it too, let’s wash hands first."
