Chapter 367 - Lu Qi was Coming

Chapter 367 Lu Qi was ComingLu Qi felt it lucky to encounter Jiang Rui’s daughter.

“Hello, you can call me aunt Qiqi. What’s your name?” She didn’t pay attention to the real meaning of what the little girl said.

Tuan Zi lifted Hei Zi and went away without saying a word. Lu Qi thought she had become shy in front of strangers. She turned back and said to Lu Tao, “Brother, did you see how cute Jiang Rui’s daughter is?!”

Lu Tao shook his head. He knew well that his sister had been spoiled since birth and was so innocent that she didn’t get that the little girl was apparently hostile to her…

“Let’s go. I will send you up!” When the two were about to set off, a man went over hurriedly and cried, “Tuan Zi, wait for me!”

Tuan Zi asked in the elevator, “Uncle, don’t you see that pretty aunt over there?”

“Ah?” Ying Cheng turned back and found two persons were behind them, carrying luggage. He walked inside the elevator and asked, “Do you know them?”

“She’s the aunt who will move in!” Tuan Zi said ruefully on purpose, “Uncle, from tonight on, you are going to sleep in the study.”

I have been sleeping in the study all along… Ying Cheng stared at her deliberately and greeted Lu Qi with a gentle smile, “Hi, are you the person who will be protected by my brother?”

“You are…?” The brother and sister looked at each other, for they hadn’t heard that Jiang Rui had a brother!

Ying Cheng laughed. When the elevator reached its destination, he lifted Tuan Zi and said, “Come in!”

“I heard Jiang Rui was adopted by others and he got along quite well with his foster family. That man was the child of that family,” Lu Tao reminded Lu Qi while she didn’t care about it at all. “What kind of brother is he? Probably he just wants to take advantage of Jiang Rui.”

Seeing her behavior, Lu Tao couldn’t help to say harshly, “No matter who he is, you should avoid messing with him.”

“I know. I must leave a good impression on Jiang Rui!”

Chen Chen opened the door and saw Ying Cheng, seemingly waiting to watch the upcoming drama. Then her eyes rested on Lu Qi who stood in the back. As expected, she was a pretty woman, in a white dress in the cold winter, often eliciting a man’s desire to protect.

“Mrs. Jiang!” Lu Tao said politely right away, “We feel sorry to trouble officer Jiang!“ “Qiqi, say hello.”

Lu Qi said reluctantly, “Mrs… Mrs. Jiang.”

“Hello, come in!” Chen Chen asked them in, while at that time Tuan Zi and Ying Cheng went out for breakfast.

Lu Tao and Lu Qi went in and looked around, but they didn’t see Jiang Rui. So Lu Qi could not wait to ask, “Where’s Officer Jiang?”

“Well, he is cooking in the kitchen.” Chen Chen said casually because Tuan Zi saw an apple pie on TV the night before. So Jiang Rui was making it according to the recipe.

The brother and sister were taken aback.

“Don’t you cook?” Lu Qi thought it so incredible that Jiang Rui was cooking for his wife and child. Who would believe it?

Chen Chen saw nothing strange about it and she said after nodding. “He cooks well.” She then looked inside the kitchen but she found he was not intending to come out, so she said, “Come, let me show you to your room. You can unpack your luggage!”

Lu Qi would rather go to the kitchen to see Jiang Rui but Lu Tao pushed her and dragged her luggage to follow Chen Chen. When they passed the master bedroom, she asked discontentedly, “Isn’t the one opposite the guest room?”

“It’s Tuan Zi’s room.” Chen Chen glanced at it and continue, “the guest room further inside.”

“I can share the room with the little girl!” Lu Qi blurted out. However, Chen Chen didn’t expect such words from her, looking at her in surprise.

Lu Tao gave her a stare and said, “Nonsense!”

“I…” When Lu Qi seemed to have something else to say, Tuan Zi cried from behind, “Yu want to take my bed? Xiao Hei, bite her!”

A black shadow rushed at her. Lu Qi was almost bitten down below the apartment. Seeing the dog is coming at her, she screamed out of fear.

Not until Hei Zi had ripped off a piece of fabric from Lu Qi did Chen Chen begin to stop Hei Zi. “Hei Zi!”

Lu Qi felt an aching for her dress and was about to kick the little dog. At that moment, Tuan Zi screamed. She immediately covered her ear and wanted to call names. But she suddenly found a man standing behind, coldly looking at her.

“Officer… Officer Jiang!” Lu Qi’s eyes were turned red and the tears welled out. She then lowered her head delicately.

Tuan Zi held Hei Zi and rushed into Jiang Rui’s arms. “Dad, this aunt wants my bed and was going to kick Hei Zi!”

“Officer Jiang!” Lu Tao stepped forward right away. “Sorry, my sister is spoiled. If she doesn’t behave herself, speak directly to me. I’ll teach her a lesson.”

Lu Qi’s eyes were filled with tears. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that. I really like Tuan… Tuan Zi. I just want to be close to her.”

Chen Chen made a face to Jiang Rui gloatingly while the latter darted a look at her, then rested his eyes on Lu Tao. “Don’t mess up my personal life, or I will call off the mission.”

“I understand. I understand.” Lu Tao felt his back was soaked because Jiang Rui’s aura was so powerful.

Ying Cheng’s voice came from the living room. “Tuan Zi, come and have some apple pie!”

Tuan Zi replied yes happily! Jiang Rui turned to lift Tuanzi and said before he went over, “Chen Chen, come with us, or the pie will get cold.”

Chen Chen was nearly chocked by his words for she knew he said it on purpose.

“This is the guest room and the study is nearby. You’ve met Ying Cheng. He used to live there.” Chen Chen pushed open the door of the guest room. “Unpack first!”

Seeing Chen Chen leave angrily, Lu Qi didn’t feel uncomfortable. She noted that Jiang Rui totally ignored her which meant he had to be angry. She was all to blame for she showed too much of her anxiety…

“Remember what I say, Lu Qi. Jiang Rui is a cold man. He won’t put up with you just because you are a woman. Do you know what happened to Bai Weirong? I don’t wish for you to be in the hospital a few months.”

“Brother!” Lu Qi stamped her feet. “I am different from such silly women as Bai Weirong. Stop comparing me with her.”

Lu Tao patted her forehead and comforted, “Alright. I’ll leave. Behave yourself.”

After Lu Tao left, Lu Qi went to the dining room; she saw Chen Chen grabbing some apple pie from Tuan Zi and some food crumbs were sticking on her mouth. Lu Qi despised Chen Chen from the bottom of her heart. How could such a woman deserve the War God!

“Miss Lu, did you have breakfast?” Chen Chen noticed that she had changed her clothing; a dress, high with a tight waist. She had a pair of 36D breasts… Looking at those plump boobs, Chen Chen curled her lip.

At first Lu Qi prepared to answer no, but seeing Ying Cheng had just put the last piece of pie into his mouth, she said, “I’m not used to eat food with such high calories.”

“Dad!” Tuan Zi wiped her mouth. “I said it before. My mom is fabulous! She doesn’t even have to diet to keep a good figure, for she already has one. Don’t you think so?”

Chen Chen almost choked so she took a drink of juice and cast a glance at Tuan Zi in secrecy. Out of expectation, Jiang Rui, who would always attack her confidence, nodded to agree with Tuan Zi. “Well, I do think so!”

“Eh-hem!” Ying Cheng couldn’t hold to cough and exchanged looks with Chen Chen.

Ying Cheng went, “What happened to my brother?”

Chen Chen replied, “I don’t know. Something’s wrong with him!”

Lu Qi‘s eyes stayed fixed on Jiang Rui. “Officer Jiang, sorry to trouble you these days. Shall we eat out? My treat!”

“Now that you know you bring trouble, then don’t wander around. I don’t want to send people to protect you at the end of the year.” Jiang Rui said roughly as usual.

“I… I just want to express my gratitude…” Lu Qi was about to cry again for no one had talked to her like that.

Chen Chen chuckled and said, “Miss Lu, you’d better get used to his words, or you’ll have to cry every day!”

Lu Qi’s face darkened. “Was this woman mocking me?”

Actually she was mistaken about her. Chen Chen just felt pleased to see someone being dissed by Jiang Rui.

Tuan Zi knew her mother well and jumped into Chen Chen’s arms. “Mom, what did I say? My dad is only nice to you and totally indifferent to others!”

“Hah!” Chen Chen pinched her face. “Well. Go wash your hands. We will go shopping!”

Ying Cheng rose up and said, “I’ll go. I also want some new clothing.”

The three left Jiang Rui and ran back to their rooms to change clothes. When Lu Qi prepared to sit down, she saw Jiang Rui stand up.

“Officer Jiang…” She rose too but Jiang Rui walked away right away, leaving her alone standing there pounding her fist on the table. Later she rushed into her room to call Zhou He.

Zhou He was hesitating whether she should call her daughter for she cared about her so much, but at the same time she feared she would bother her.

“Mom!” Lu Qi cried.

“Qiqi? Did they bully you?” Zhou He became worried. “Where’s your brother?”

Lu Qi grumbled, “My brother left already.”

Hearing that, Zhou He began to criticize Lu Tao and then asked, “Did they bully you?”

“No!” Lu Qi wiped her tears. “I’m not used to living with other people.”

“Then come back!” Zhou He said pitifully, “That Jiang Rui is fierce. What if he beats you…?”

Lu Qi rebutted instantly, “No, he won’t.”

“Mom, don’t worry. Officer Jiang won’t beat me.”

Zhou He said, “Why you have to do this to yourself? You just moved in since you knew he’s married. Will his wife show you any kindness?”

Lu Qi was sick and tired of her mom talking. “Mom, I can handle it. Don’t worry.” She hung up as soon as she finished.

“Childish…” Zhou He sighed over the phone. But after deep thinking, she was still apprehensive, so she picked up the phone to dial a number.

At the moment, Lu Qi heard a sound from the door so she ran out to see the back of Ying Cheng. She paced around the living room, then went to check the study, and called Chen Chen’s name in front of the master room, only to find she had been left alone in the house.

Jiang Rui drove his car out of the residential area while Chen Chen said ostentatiously in the back seat, “Hey, you plan to leave that pretty girl alone at home?”

“You can stay with her then?” Jiang Rui went back to his normal self and began to diss Chen Chen. “You’d better think whether you have locked your computer.”

Chen Chen curled her lip and said, “It seemed you didn’t lock the study, either.”

“Mom!” Tuan Zi said seriously, “That aunt will look through your things.”

“How do you know it?”

Tuan Zi was almost speechless, as if her mom was incurable. “Mom, she’s here to steal dad from you. Can’t you see it?”

“Huh, then go ahead!” Chen Chen said indifferently.

“Do you want her to be my stepmother?” Tuan Zi was upset with her. “Do you want me to be tortured?”
