Chapter 676 Dabao Asking An Important Question Qiao Zhan initially wanted to pick Nan Xing up at the airport but got stuck in a traffic jam. Hence, Nan Xing took the airport bus and arrived before he did.
âMr. Xing, youâre here. Iâll ask someone to prepare your meal,â Qiao Zhan said. âWhere are the kids?
Are they taking a nap?â Nan Xing asked.
âYes, they are taking a nap. They were tired after playing too much and will sleep longer today.â âThen donât wake them up. Prepare me some food, though. Iâm starving.â
Nan Xing didnât ask about Lu Jingyuan for he was scolded after flirting with her. Feeling embarrassed, he didnât mention her to Qiao Zhan. As he didnât mention anything, Qiao Zhan dared not ask any questions.
Ms. Lu was furious and called him a âpervert.â Something mustâve happened. Nevertheless, Qiao Zhan couldnât ask what Nan Xing did to infuriate Lu Jingyuan.
Moreover, there was a strange wet stain on Nan Xingâs white suit. That further proved that something had happened. Did Master Xing pounce on Ms. Lu when no one was around? Thatâs not acceptable! If thatâs the case, Ms. Lu has every right to be mad at him!
Qiao Zhan regarded Lu Jingyuan as his goddess, so if Nan Xing did try to force himself on her, Qiao Zhan would definitely side with Lu Jingyuan. Thus, he didnât ask questions and pretended he didnât see anything.
After lunch, Nan Xing took a short nap. The kids were still asleep when he woke up. Getting bored, he got the car keys from Qiao Zhan and went out for a drive.
Meanwhile, Lu Jingyuan went back to her house. She couldnât help feeling that something was off. I got mad and left, but my children are still at the inn. Will the pervert vent his anger on them after I offended him?
Realizing that she had made a wrong decision, she drove back to Mountview Inn. A few minutes after Nan Xing left, Lu Jingyuan arrived at the inn. They missed each other and avoided another conflict.
This time, Lu Jingyuan woke her daughters so they could go home together. The girls were in a daze and didnât know what happened, but since their mother insisted that they return home with her, they had no choice but to obey.
Dabao and Erbao were still asleep when Lu Jingyuan brought Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunbing away. Qiao Zhan saw them out and asked, âMs. Lu, what happened?â
âIâm fine. Some people wanted to bully me and my kids because weâre alone and helpless, but I wonât let him succeed!â Lu Jingyuan huffed angrily.
Qiao Zhan offered a placating smile. âYouâre not alone or helpless. Please donât put yourself down.
Who offended you? Was it our young master?â
âI donât want to mention him. Heâs disgusting!â Lu Jingyuan helped her kids put on their seatbelts and drove away. Qiao Zhan watched as her car disappeared into the distance, utterly baffled.
Did our young master do something to Ms. Lu? Sheâs usually gentle, but look how furious she was earlier. Mr. Xing isnât as capable as Mr. Chen, but heâs a gentleman. How could he force himself on Ms.
Lu? Has he gone crazy?
Qiao Zhan returned to the inn to discover that Erbao had woken up. The little girl was usually sensible, but after taking a longer-than-usual nap, she woke up groggy and grumpy.
Realizing that Lu Yunbing and Lu Yunxue werenât around, she got upset and demanded to know why her friends were gone. âTheir mommy brought them home. I had nothing to do with this,â Qiao Zhan replied innocently.
âBut Ms. Lu promised to keep us company all day. She promised Mommy that sheâll take care of us.
Why did she leave suddenly? Did you make her angry?â Erbao demanded furiously.
Qian Zhan protested, âI dare not make Ms. Lu angry. I didnât do anything!â âThen why did Ms. Lu leave suddenly?â Erbao refused to buy his explanation.
âWell, I have no idea.â Qiao Zhan surmised that Nan Xing and Lu Jingyuan had a fight, but it was just a guess. He dared not reveal his thoughts without any evidence to support him.
Erbao might be a child, but if he were to reveal anything to her, she would betray him any minute.
âThereâs no way you know nothing,â Dabao stated icily as he came out to give Qiao Zhan a doubtful stare.
The weak-willed Qiao Zhan immediately felt guilty when he met Dabaoâs solemn gaze. A chill ran down his spine as he found Dabaoâs glare eerily similar to Nan Chenâs.
âIâ¦â Qiao Zhan was at a loss for words. âMan, up and spill the truth. Why are you stuttering?â Dabao demanded. Qiao Zhan got even more perplexed. It was challenging enough to handle one kid, but there were two kids before him now.
âI guess something cropped up, and she left. You were sleeping, so she didnât want to disturb you and left without telling you. I think that was what happened,â he mustered a reply.
âReally?â Dabao didnât believe him. âYes.â Qiao Zhan forced himself to stay calm. âAll right. You donât want to spill the truth, right? Iâll call Ms. Lu and find out what happened. If you offended her, Iâll tell Daddy what you did,â Dabao warned.
âDidnât I tell you I dare not offend Ms. Lu? I wasnât the one who offended her!â Qiao Zhan insisted.
âOh, I know what happened!â Erbao yelled without warning.
Dabao asked sternly, âWhat do you know?â
He had always disliked his sisterâs habit of yelling out loud without warning.
Erbao inched nearer to him and whispered something into his ear.
Dabaoâs eyes widened after he heard her words and stared at Qiao Zhan.
Deep down, Qiao Zhan was startled. What did she say? It seems that she was talking about me.
âUncle Qiao, I think I need to talk to you,â Dabao said with a steely expression.
Qiao Zhanâs panic grew. Erbao mustâve told him something about me! I wonder what she said.
Dabao walked to a corner, so Qiao Zhan had to follow him.
Erbao wanted to tag along but was stopped by Dabao.
Left without a choice, she had to halt in her tracks and watch pitifully as Qiao Zhan and Dabao had a talk.
âUncle Qiao, weâre both men and can confide in each other, right?â Dabao asked solemnly.
âLittle Master, what do you want to talk about? What did Little Miss say about me?â
Dabao returned, âHow did you know she was talking about you?â
âIsnât that obvious? Of course she was talking about me. Otherwise, why would you want to talk to me in private?â Qiao Zhan asked with a bitter expression.
âDid you do it?â Dabao questioned.
âHuh? Do what?â Qiao Zhan didnât understand his question.
Dabao demanded, âDonât you know what you did? Or are you putting up an act?â
Qiao Zhan grew increasingly nervous. âWhat did I do? I didnât do anything.â
âBut I think Erbaoâs words make sense,â Dabao told him.
âWhat did Little Miss say? Did she speak ill of me?â
âErbao said youâre in love with Ms. Lu and did something to her since no one was around today. That was why she left angrily. Was that the case?â
Qiao Zhan was frightened. âLittle Master, youâre wrong! Please donât make baseless accusations. I didnât do anything to her! Even if someone did violate her, it should be your Uncle Xing, not me!â
Forced into a corner, Qiao Zhan had no choice but to reveal what was on his mind.
