Xiao Ye finished the puzzle, and replied earnestly, "Why didn’t you say? I’m most concerned about you."
Before Luo Qiao could respond, he continued, "Mom, next time you buy puzzles, buy some more challenging ones. These are too childish."
Luo Qiao didn’t tease her son this time, "Alright, next time I’ll take you along, you can choose yourself."
Xiao Ye was delighted upon hearing this, ran over and kissed Luo Qiao’s cheek, "Thank you, Mom."
Yanyan looked disdainfully and said, "Huang Hongye, you’re a boy."
Xiao Ye ignored his sister’s remark and boldly said, "What’s wrong with being a boy? I’m Mom’s son."
Lu Yichen’s face darkened, "Is this appropriate?"
Xiao Ye glanced sideways at Lu Yichen, unwilling to promise, "I’m Mom’s son."
Lu Yichen said seriously, "No one’s saying you’re not, but you’re a boy, you can’t kiss girls randomly, even Mom."
Xiao Ye became upset and his eyes reddened, "I’m Mom’s son, I can kiss Mom."
Lu Yichen insisted, "I said no, then no. You’re not a child anymore."
Xiao Ye defied him and looked towards Luo Qiao, "Mom, look at Dad."
Suddenly considering something, before Luo Qiao could speak, he asked Luo Qiao, "Which side are you on?"
Luo Qiao glared at Lu Yichen before forting her son, "Of course, Mom is on her son’s side."
Hearing this, Xiao Ye stopped being sad, glanced smugly at Lu Yichen, gave a loud ’hmph’, and buried his face into Luo Qiao’s embrace, "Dad is the bad guy."
Lu Yichen was both amused and exasperated, "You brat."
Rong Daniang spoke up, "Get ready, wash up, have dinner."
Just as they started eating, Luo Qiao’s phone rang.
The call was from Guan Yuqi, "Hello, sis, it’s me, Yuqi."
"Yuqi, calling for something?"
"Sis, something happened here, I don’t even know how to tell you."
"Just say what you need to."
"Sis, don’t get angry when you hear it, there’s definitely some misunderstanding."
"Alright, whatever it is, just say it directly."
"It’s like this, my family’s neighbor opposite has a daughter named Sun Yu."
Luo Qiao heard and said, "Just get to the point."
"Sun Yu was downstairs just now, got knocked down and bled by a kid from the family pound, I happened to be at home and she told me that the kid is your husband’s."
Luo Qiao sneered, "She really dares to say that, what nonsense, this matter has nothing to do with your brother-in-law, you don’t need to worry about it."
The two exchanged a few more words before hanging up.
Luo Qiao looked at Lu Yichen, "Handle this now or tomorrow?"
Lu Yichen checked the time, "What’s the rush? They haven’t e to find us, why should it concern us?"
After speaking, he called out to the kids, "Pack up, let’s go out for a walk."
The next day, early in the morning, Luo Qiao received a call, it was none other than Sun Yu’s mother.
Luo Qiao spoke firmly, "Sun Yu’s mom, I don’t know how you educated your daughter from a young age, but I trust my husband, he would never do anything to betray me, I warned her yesterday, if she insists, she’ll face the consequences herself."
After hanging up, she glanced at Lu Yichen.
Lu Yichen had called Shen Jianzhong last night, and early today received Sun Yu’s related information.
It included details of her incident at a colleague’s birthday party, and they also identified the person who had tarnished Sun Yu’s reputation.
Luo Qiao called the hospital to ask for leave, and went to the Valve Factory Staff Hospital with Lu Yichen.
The Sun family’s relatives were already waiting there, but they weren’t expecting just Lu Yichen and his wife, but also the police and Lu Yichen’s lawyer.
As soon as Lu Yichen arrived, he got straight to the point, "Sun Yu, I have a few questions to ask you, and you need to answer truthfully."
Sun Yu was a bit flustered but nodded bravely, "Okay."
Lu Yichen asked, "When and where did we meet?"
Sun Yu replied, "Over a month ago, at the landslide rescue site."
Lu Yichen continued to ask, "So we had no interaction before that, right?"
