Chapter 1297

Qiao Mu met Yu Yiduo’s worried gaze and explained, “”Mom, I’m fine.”

How could Yu Yiduo believe that Qiao Mu would be fine? She wanted to go up and comfort her, but Li Zheng pulled her upstairs with the excuse that he wanted to rest.

She was a little dissatisfied and shouted as soon as she entered the room,”My daughter-in-law is unhappy. I haven’t comforted her. Why did you pull me back to my room?”@@novelbin@@

” She has a man and doesn’t need your comfort. She’s our son’s woman, not yours. Don’t be a busybody. ” Li Zheng said indifferently.

Yu Yiduo snorted. Although it sounded reasonable, she was still worried.

Only Li Yan and Qiao Mu were left downstairs.

...

Just as Qiao Mu was about to speak, the man in front of her walked over and pulled her into his embrace.

She was stunned and raised her head from his embrace. ” Uncle, you knew that Shu Xinyu kidnapped me? ”

“Yes.” The man’s voice was low. ” I thought that you wouldn’t know if I didn’t tell you. It’s better to let you think that Ning Tongtong kidnapped you than to let you know the truth, but this matter was still exposed. ”

Qiao Mu’s heart warmed. This man was always thinking about her, and he had always used his own methods to protect her.

She knew about this matter now, but there were still many things that he had handled well without her knowing.

She hugged his waist tightly. ” Uncle, thank you. ”

A word of thanks was not enough to express her feelings for him, but she still wanted to thank him.

Thank you for being so good to her, thank you for protecting her in his hands and sheltering her from the wind and rain.

Thank you for appearing in her life and giving her warmth that she had never had in her life.

He looked down at her and raised his hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. ” Silly girl, you don’t have to pretend to be indifferent at a time like this. ”

She looked up at him and said softly,Actually, I’ve known about this for a long time, perhaps even earlier than you. ”

Li Yan narrowed his eyes. ” How did you know? Why didn’t you tell me?”

” I accidentally discovered a scratch on Shu Xinyu’s shoulder. It was the same as the scratch I left on the man in black when I was kidnapped. At that time, I was indeed very sad and shocked, but I didn’t want you to worry, so I didn’t mention it. But now, it’s fine. ”

Li Yan didn’t get up. ” Qiao Mu, compared to me worrying, I don’t want you to be sad alone. You have me, and you’re no longer alone. You can rely on me for everything. You’re not allowed to shoulder such things alone in the future. ”

Qiao Mu pouted. ” This isn’t fair. You can shoulder it alone, so why can’t I? “You’re hiding it from me because you don’t want me to be sad. It’s the same as me hiding it from you because I don’t want you to worry about me. Li Yan, you’re my support. I can be your support too. I don’t want to be wrapped up by you all the time. I’m no longer a child.”

Qiao Mu’s eyes were extremely serious as she stared at Li Yan. Her expression made Li Yan’s heart flutter.

He knew that she was very strong. It was precisely because of this that he wanted to protect her so that she did not need to be strong in front of him.

However, this little woman was not willing to be treated differently. She wanted to be on equal footing with him and become his support.

It sounded funny, but her eyes were filled with determination and seriousness.

Yes, she was no longer a child, but she had always been a child in his eyes.

He only hoped that she would always be like a child, innocent and happy.
