Just as he entered the villa, Lu Yaozong saw Ruan Qingwan and An Qingruo seated on the sofa, talking and laughing intimately.
Lu Yaozong looked at Ruan Qingwan with that doting smile on his face, and his footsteps paused.
Before he could think about anything else, An Qingruo saw Lu Yaozong, who had just returned. An Qingruo smiled at him: "Dad, you're back."
When Lu Yaozong saw An Qingruo's innocent smile, what appeared in her mind was the expression on An Qingruo's face when she told Yu Huimin about the fake goods in the private room of the bland restaurant.
Previously, when Lu Yaozong looked at An Qingruo and laughed, he only thought that An Qingruo was simple and cute. But now, when Lu Yaozong looked at the smile on his face, he felt that An Qingruo was so hypocritical that he hated it!
Now was not the time to expose An Qingruo! He had to endure!
Ruan Qingwan heard An Qingruo and looked at her.
Lu Yaozong looked at the smile on Ruan Qingwan's face, gritted his teeth and forcefully suppressed the complex emotions in his heart, then walked towards Ruan Qingwan and An Qingruo.
Ruan Qingwan and Lu Yaozong had been husband and wife for more than ten years, so they understood each other very well.
Even though Lu Yaozong hid his emotions extremely well on the surface, Ruan Qingwan was still able to tell that Lu Yaozong's mood today was a little off. It was as if he was hiding something from her.
Thinking about that, Ruan Qingwan couldn't help but ask Lu Yaozong: "What happened? What happened? "
Hearing Ruan Qingwan say that, Lu Yaozong's lips moved, the words just reached his mouth, but he could not help but recall the time when Ruan Qingwan was seated together with An Qingruo, they were talking and laughing in her mind.
Lu Yaozong clearly saw that ever since he had recognized An Qingruo, Ruan Qingwan had had had some doubts regarding An Qingruo's background. He had pampered An Qingruo to the very ends of his heart and brought all the good things to An Qingruo for the sake of making up for the deficiencies of these past twenty odd years.
If she were to suddenly tell Ruan Qingwan that An Qingruo was fake, she would definitely not be his daughter, and in order to earn money, An Qingruo would even become the Lu Family's daughter, the daughter that was supposed to be the daughter of a young miss.
Ruan Qingwan had done so much for An Qingruo, paid so much, and the moment she found out the truth, it could be imagined just how huge of a blow this would be to Ruan Qingwan!
Moreover, Ruan Qingwan's health had never been good …
At this moment, Lu Yaozong, who had already made his decision previously, hesitated when he saw the smile on Ruan Qingwan's face.
"Why aren't you speaking again? What exactly happened? " Ruan Qingwan saw that Lu Yaozong was only staring at her, and did not make a sound for a long time, and started to panic, but subconsciously grabbed onto Lu Yaozong's sleeves: "Hubby, is there something you're hiding from me!"
Ruan Qingwan's voice pulled Lu Yaozong back from his thoughts. Lu Yaozong's eyes remained calm and collected as he lowered himself and held Ruan Qingwan's hand, with a face that barely squeezed out a touch of Xiao Ronglai, he smiled at Ruan Qingwan: "Nothing much, I was probably too tired these few days."
Lu Yaozong changed his mind. He was afraid that if he suddenly told Ruan Qingwan the truth, Ruan Qingwan's emotions would collapse because he could not take it anymore.
After all, things had not been clarified yet. Lu Yaozong wanted to slowly tell Ruan Qingwan the truth after he was certain that An Xingchen was their daughter.
Hearing Lu Yaozong's words, Ruan Qingwan's face was filled with heartache as she hurriedly said, "Then sit down and rest for a while."
After saying that, Ruan Qingwan quickly pulled Lu Yaozong to the sofa and sat him down: "Do you want some tea? I'll make some tea for you. "
Lu Yaozong rubbed his forehead, then pulled Ruan Qingwan's hand: "If you don't want to drink tea, then stop busying yourself, you can just sit with me for a while."
After Ruan Qingwan heard this, she sat down next to Lu Yaozong.
After sitting down, Ruan Qingwan noticed that Lu Yaozong was still holding onto a Kraft paper bag. Ruan Qingwan couldn't help but curiously ask: "Hubby, what is this Kraft paper bag you're holding inside?"
As he said that, Ruan Qingwan subconsciously reached out her hand to take it.
Ruan Qingwan and Lu Yaozong had never kept anything secret, in just a second, Ruan Qingwan's hands had just touched the Kraft paper bag, and Lu Yaozong had already moved the Kraft paper bag away without batting an eyelid.
Ruan Qingwan was startled, her hands stiffened on the spot, and could not help but look at Lu Yaozong with suspicion.
Lu Yaozong held Ruan Qingwan's hand and explained: "The inside only contains a contract with the company, it's nothing much to watch."
Lu Yaozong then looked at An Qingruo who was on his phone and changed the topic: "Yuan Yuan, go and go to the kitchen and bring some fruits over."
An Qingruo was startled when she heard Lu Yaozong's voice, she raised her eyes and looked away from the phone, then looked at Lu Yaozong who subconsciously nodded his head and stood up: "Okay, I will go get it now."
With that, An Qingruo walked towards the kitchen. She did not know if it was because of her imagination, but when An Qingruo met her gaze just now, why did she feel that Lu Yaozong was looking at her coldly? It seemed a little different from before …
But when he thought about it carefully, An Qingruo felt that she might have been overthinking it …
The emotion in Lu Yaozong's eyes just now was too fast, even An Qingruo himself was not sure if what he saw was real.
Maybe he really was seeing things wrongly, An Qingruo thought to herself, and dispelled the doubt in her heart.
Lu Yaozong accompanied Ruan Qingwan for a while, then without batting an eyelid, Lu Yaozong found an excuse and took the Kraft paper bag to the study room upstairs.
Just to be safe, Lu Yaozong locked the thing inside the Kraft paper bag into the study room's safe.
Ruan Qingwan rarely entered the study room, even if he did do so occasionally, he would only look for books and rarely opened his safe to look through anything.
When Lu Shijia returned home in the evening, the few of them sat together for dinner.
Ruan Qingwan had already made this plan in her heart, after hearing Lu Yaozong's suggestion, she immediately nodded her head: "Alright, I was thinking the same, I'll call Ling Qian and the rest later."
