Su Bei was surprised. âSuch a thing happened?â
âIf the matter hadnât blown up, I wouldnât have come to find you,â Han Qingwan said. âHetingâs actions have already caused a huge conflict. If I donât interfere, Iâm afraid something will happen.â
Su Bei said, âI believe he has his own reasons for doing all this. Even if we canât figure it out at the moment, thereâs no need to doubt him.â
Han Qingwan said, âItâs a good thing that you believe him. But arenât you worried at all? Donât you want to know what Tian Xin said?â
âIf he wanted to tell me, he would have told me himself. He didnât tell me, so he didnât think it was necessary.â Su Bei smiled.
Han Qingwan could tell that Su Bei didnât intend to meddle in this matter, nor would she help ask Lu Heting about it.
Han Qingwan sighed. This might be the main reason why she and Su Bei were unable to be as close as mother and daughter.
âIf something really happens, donât regret it.â With that, Han Qingwan took her bag and left.
Su Bei thought for a moment and said, âI wonât regret it.â
It was because Lu Heting would never do anything that would make her regret it. In this world, she trusted this man the most. He had said that he would protect her and the two munchkins for the rest of his life, so he would definitely not let anything bad happen.
He promised.
And she believed him.
There was no doubt.
......
After returning home, Su Bei saw that Lu Hetingâs expression was normal. It was the kind of normal expression that was not fake.
She reached out her arms and hugged him gently. âAre you tired?â she asked simply.
âNo.â Lu Heting buried his head in her shoulder.
Even so, Su Bei still massaged his shoulders.
Lu Hetingâs dry and warm palm covered the back of her hand. âYouâre tired too. Thereâs no need.â
âIâve only been to one event in the last few days, thatâs all,â Su Bei said with a smile. âI even had Aunt Chen pick up some groceries for me. Iâll cook something nice for you later. Close your eyes.â
Lu Heting closed his eyes obediently, but the smile on his lips remained.
As the matter between Lu Heting and Lu Bei had been exposed on the internet, when Su Bei was free to go out and play, she would go out with Lu Heting while dressed in a male outfit. It was great to be open about things. Even if she was photographed, there was no need to explain further.
In that case, no one would ever think of her.
It seemed that being exposed wasnât entirely a bad thing.
Moreover, the paparazzi and reporters were sometimes quite strange. When the truth was exposed, their desire to capture them on camera was not as strong. Perhaps the next time their strong desire to follow them would be ignited was when Lu Heting broke up with Lu Bei or when Lu Heting was with someone else.
Su Bei was wearing menâs clothes and a baseball cap. After buying a bottle of Coke, she happily got into Lu Hetingâs car.
âIâm thirsty too,â Lu Heting said.
Su Bei unscrewed the cap and gave it to him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lu Heting drank half of it in one go. Su Bei watched as the Coke entered his mouth. His Adamâs apple bobbed, and his perfect Adamâs apple gulped the Coke bit by bit.
Boo-hoo, she was only allowed to buy one bottle each time. After buying it, he said that he was thirsty. Su Bei knew that he didnât want her to drink too much, but she was still worried that he was really thirsty and couldnât bear to not let him drink it.
He was really too much!
