Seeing that Xiao Jiu was so eager, Lingâer did not find it strange. She felt at ease after figuring it out.
Any child who knew that their mommy was here would be eager to find their mommy.
âOK, weâll go find her now.â
Lingâer stood up with a smile. She held Xiao Jiuâs hand and walked to the hotel near the Presidentâs manor.
It was a long distance from the Presidentâs manor. It would be fast to drive there but very time-consuming to walk there.
Although Lingâer had always been indoors, she practiced martial arts every day. Although walking was bearable, walking for a long distance would require rest.
She was worried about Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu was too young. If he walked for too long, it would not be good for his legs. It might even affect his growth.
She reminded him, âXiao Jiu, if you canât walk anymore, tell Grandma, and Grandma will carry you. Do you understand?â
âI understand, Grandma.â Xiao Jiu raised his little head. When he smiled, he revealed two small canine teeth. They were so white that they shone in the night.
When Qin Shu knew there was no danger, she did not waste her energy struggling. Under her persistence, she moved her cuffed hands from her back to her front. Then, she lay on the bed and slept.
/
She did not sleep well nor soundly.
Her cuffed hands made it really uncomfortable for her, especially for a light sleeper like her. She did not sleep well as her arms felt numb and sore.
When Jin Cheng returned, he went to the room next door and stood tall in front of the bed. He lowered his eyes and looked at the man sleeping soundly on the bed, not knowing whether to laugh or be angry.
How could he fall asleep under such circumstances?
Who on earth sent this idiot?
Qin Shu had signs of waking up because she was feeling uncomfortable. In her sleep, she felt a pair of eyes sizing her up. She suddenly woke up and opened her eyes. She saw a person standing in front of the bed. When she looked up, she saw the man who had ambushed her.
She was stunned for a moment. The man before her looked very familiar.
When she was ambushed in the wee hours, she still felt a little dizzy. All she knew was that the man was rather handsome. Of course, he was still a little lacking compared to Master.
When she thought of Master, she suddenly realized why the man before her looked so familiar.
He should be Jin Cheng, whom Mommy had mentioned.
Master had disguised himself as him to get close to Mommy back then.
However, there was too much of a difference in their aura.
Master could indeed carry off being any handsome man with his cold and aloof aura.
When Jin Cheng saw that he had woken up, his eyes suddenly turned cold. âWho sent you here? I can spare your life if you are honest. I wonât be gracious if you continue to spout nonsense.â
Qin Shu frowned upon hearing that, and she slowly sat up. As her hands were cuffed, she lifted both hands together to rub her slightly aching temples. She said casually, âDidnât I say it in the early morning? Why are you still asking?â
After rubbing her temples, she rubbed her aching arms again and looked down at the handcuffs on her wrists. If Broken Moon were with her, Broken Moon would have no trouble slicing this thing.
Jin Cheng looked at the man on the bed. From the moment he opened his eyes to the moment he sat up, he seemed to treat this place as his own home. His demeanor was laid back, and he did not seem to know how dangerous his current situation was. He looked as if he was very innocent.
He chuckled. This manâs acting skills were pretty good.
âThen tell me, how did you get here? Donât tell me that Brother Jiu was drugged and gave birth to you after he accidentally had sex with your mom.â
Qin Shu lifted her head lazily and looked at Jin Cheng with raised eyebrows. Thatâs right. She was already sure that the man before her was Jin Cheng.
âWas there a need for my mom to even drug him? I can guarantee that he would be in a worse state than being drugged at the sight of my mom.â
She said it with absolute certainty. No matter how cold and abstinent a man was, it was really difficult to restrain himself in front of the woman he liked, especially when he was in love.
Fu Tingyu was a classic example of abstinence. He could maintain his composure in front of other women no matter how much the other party flirted with him.
No matter what, Master was still a man. Like men always said, if a man did not have that kind of impulse toward the woman he liked, he did not like her.
Upon hearing this, Jin Cheng could not help but laugh out loud because he recalled when Brother Jiu and Lingâer were together. He thought of the scene that he accidentally bumped into more than twenty years ago.
His image of Brother Jiu being cold and ascetic had changed since then.
Back then, he bumped into Brother Jiu and Lingâer kissing. Most importantly, Brother Jiu did not keep his hands to himself as he took advantage of Lingâer.
Qianhui was also there at that time. They were still very young back then.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing Jin Chengâs low laughter, Qin Shu said, âWhatâs so funny about that? If men donât feel that way in front of the woman they like, their feelings are discounted.â
Jin Cheng nodded and did not deny what he said. âI donât deny what you said either. Then, do you know that Brother Jiu has only ever fallen in love with one woman?â
âI know. My mommy, isnât it?â Qin Shuâs tone was very sure. Masterâs stubborn personality was exactly the same as Fu Tingyuâs.
âYour mom?â Jin Cheng looked as if he had heard a big joke. This time, he could not hold it in anymore and laugh aloud. He even laughed a few times. âEven if youâre lying, you should lie about something more possible. Youâll die a miserable death if you continue to spout nonsense like this and ruin my sister-in-lawâs reputation.â
Jin Chengâs voice turned cold at the end of his sentence, which meant that he was angry.
âOf course itâs my mom. If itâs not, then it means that Feng Jiuxiao has betrayed my mom. Thatâs perfect. Iâll bring my mom home. As for whether heâs my dad, I donât want to find out either.â
Qin Shu said with a smile, her tone very relaxed. However, at the end of her sentence, her tone was solemn, and her smile disappeared, even her eyes turned colder.
Jin Cheng looked at him. He felt that he was not lying, especially with that sentence just now. âBringing your mom home? Your mom is here?â
Qin Shu nodded and admitted, âYes, I came here to look for my mommy. He abducted my mommy, making it difficult for me to even see her, so I had to sneak in.â
There was a hint of doubt in Jin Chengâs eyes. Lingâer was the only woman for Brother Jiu. Could this man, who was in his early twenties, be Lingâerâs son?
He asked, âWhatâs your momâs name?â
Qin Shu raised her eyebrows and looked at him. Instead of answering, she asked, âYouâre Jin Cheng, right?â
Jin Cheng asked in puzzlement, âHow did you know that my name is Jin Cheng? I donât think I told you my name.â
Qin Shu said, âI heard my mom mention it once. As for your appearance, youâll have to ask your Brother Jiu.â
Jin Cheng suddenly grabbed his wrist and asked, âWho exactly are you?â
Qin Shuâs hand was already uncomfortable, and being grabbed like this made it even more uncomfortable. She frowned and said, âBring me to see my mom, Long Ziling. Iâll tell you how Feng Jiuxiao and I met and how I know your appearance.â
Hearing the name Long Ziling, Jin Cheng was shocked again. Only he and Brother Jiu knew Lingâerâs full name in the entire country of Feng Yi.
