Chapter 412: Chapter 412: He Sent Someone to Pick Us Up
Dabao wailed, "Mommy, I don’t want to go to this supermarket anymore."
"...I was talking about the big supermarket outside the neighborhood."
"Yay!"
"Alright."
So, the two little ones changed their clothes and happily prepared to go out.
However, just as the three of them stepped out of the house without even closing the door, Xiao Qing led them back inside.
Xiao Qing’s phone had been on charge since she returned home yesterday, and because of the incidents that occurred later, she forgot to check her phone. Now looking at it, she cursed inwardly, there were numerous missed calls all from her brother.
It’s over.
Yesterday, she asked Yang Qiao to inform him to come to the police station to pick her up, and yet she had been fetched by someone else. She had no idea how Xiao Anze managed afterwards.
Just as she was pondering, her phone rang, it was Xiao Anze calling, frightening Xiao Qing so much she nearly dropped her phone.
She picked up the phone trembling, with a lack of confidence she said: "Brother, were you looking for me yesterday?"
Xiao Anze immediately laughed out of irritation, "Wasn’t it you who asked me to come to the police station to pick you up yesterday? What happened?"
"Well, I ran into a friend, and he took me away."
"Xiao Qing! Every time you lie, you speak without confidence, and you’re still playing games with me!"
Xiao Qing, having been exposed, felt even more guilt,"Brother, actually it was... it was Lu Jinyang, do you know him? He arranged for someone to come fetch us."
"What?!!!"
It felt like a thunderclap out of a clear sky for Xiao Anze on the other end of the phone.
He was feeling terrible, terribly bad, extremely awful.
It was Lu Jinyang who went to pick up his younger sister yesterday?
How did they get in touch? Why didn’t he know anything about it?
Xiao Anze took a deep, deep breath several times, slowly saying, "Stay at home right now; I’ll come over immediately."
"Oh."
After hanging up, Xiao Qing helplessly told the two little ones, "Uncle said not to go out, he will come over in a bit."
Dear brother, just bear the burden once more for your sister’s sake.
Dabao and Xiaobao unhappily returned to sit on the couch.
Xiao Qing didn’t want to do this to them either, but in the end, it was all Lu Jinyang’s fault. If it weren’t for him, their lives wouldn’t have experienced so many unexpected events, leaving her feeling helpless.
Suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Dabao, Xiaobao, do you plan to tell Uncle your names later?"
As she expected, the two babies nodded at the same time.
Xiao Qing held her forehead, "Could you not say it was your daddy who named you? Can you say it was mommy who named you?"
"Why?" Dabao asked.
"Because..." Facing such precocious children, Xiao Qing ultimately decided to tell them the truth.
"Lu Jincheng, you should know it was your daddy who picked us up yesterday, but before your daddy came to pick us up, I had Aunt Yang Qiao ask Uncle to come pick us up. If you tell Uncle now that it was daddy who picked us up, he will definitely be very sad. Do you want to see him upset?"
Ultimately Dabao was still a child, after listening to Xiao Qing he stopped speaking.
Xiao Qing struck while the iron was hot, "If uncle is unhappy, then he will have issues with daddy, and if you see daddy and uncle both unhappy, you will be unhappy too."
Xiaobao, taking the hint seriously, nodded, "Brother, let’s just say it was mommy who named us."
"Okay."
Xiao Qing wiped a fictitious sweat; though the air conditioning was on at home, she felt her back was already wet. Truly, lying was not suitable for her.
"By the way, Dabao, did you find anything about the issue mommy asked you to check?"
