The death of Lu Hao was a criminal case, and in such cases, Luo Xiaoqian was bound to appear in court to testify. The thought of her having to recall the events of that night was tantamount to reopening her wounds.
Moreover, with her special identity and the fact that she was pregnant, Leng Zimo didn’t want her to be bombarded by the media.
His decision was one that he had contemplated for an entire afternoon before making.
Leng Lin took a drag on his cigarette, "Xiao Qian, does she agree?!"
Leng Zimo’s tone carried a hint of helplessness, "You still don’t understand her personality? At noon today, she was still persuading me not to target Xu Pei so hastily, just because she was worried you’d be unhappy."
"She is a good girl, you must cherish her properly," Leng Lin said.
Leng Zimo looked at his father but didn’t say a word.
Are such things even necessary to be discussed?!
"Ruo Ruo is getting married soon, you two should also be more diligent."
"I know."
"Know?!" Leng Lin gave him a look, "Do you want her to wear a wedding dress with a big belly?!"
Leng Zimo, helpless, could only tell him the truth, "I have already arranged everything, once these few matters are settled, we will get married."
"That’s more like it." Leng Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Now, I don’t have any other desires, I just hope that before I go to see your mother, I can see both of you married with children, so that I can peacefully meet your mother too."
Leng Zimo’s gaze darkened as he said, displeased, "What nonsense are you talking about."
"Is that how you speak to your father!" Leng Lin retorted sharply.
Although both of their tones were sharp and incisive, they both understood the real emotions in each other’s hearts.
In the time that followed, neither father nor son spoke, simply standing side by side on the balcony.
Their tall silhouettes, strikingly similar.
Tong Ya just rolled her eyes at the two of them, "Not me, Xiao Qian."
"Is that so?" Huangfu Ao also showed a smile, "Uncle Leng, Zimo, Xiao Qian, congratulations."
"Thank you," Luo Xiaoqian said politely in thanks.
"Why don’t you congratulate me?" Leng Zirui pretended to be upset.
"What does it have to do with you?" Shen Yizhou joked from the side.
"How is it not related? That’s my great-nephew, you know?" Leng Zirui mimicked shooting a gun, "The third-generation General of the Leng Family is about to be born, and you say it has nothing to do with me?!"
"May I ask," Tong Ya inquired deliberately, "who is the second-generation General of the Leng Family?"
Leng Zirui sat up straight and coughed lightly, "Far on the horizon, yet close in sight!"
Immediately, Shen Yizhou extended his hand to Huangfu Ao, "Huangfu Ao, congratulations on your promotion again." ...
