"An'an and Yi-Yi are very worried about you," Lu Chuanbai said proactively as he sat beside her.
Mentioning the two children, Xu Qingqing finally regained her senses. She tightly grabbed Lu Chuanbai's arm and asked nervously, "What's wrong with An'an and Yi-Yi? What did you tell them?"
The two children had been smart since childhood. Now that she hadn't returned for so long, they must have guessed something.
Lu Chuanbai lowered his eyes slightly. "Your two children are very smart, and you know that. They guessed that something had happened to you, and we couldn't hide it from them."
Hearing this, Xu Qingqing panicked completely.
"Why are you all so useless? You can't even deceive two kids."
She was extremely anxious and eager to see An'an and Yi-Yi.
"Quick, give me your phone. I need to call them."
Xu Qingqing panicked and asked Lu Chuanbai for his phone.
After the call was connected, the voices of An'an and Yi-Yi came through.
"Uncle Lu, have you found Mommy?"
The voices of the two children were a bit hoarse. Apparently, they had been crying for the past two days.
"Mommy's back. Don't worry, babies," Xu Qingqing quickly said.
"Mommy, you scared us to death!"
The two children started crying loudly, and Xu Qingqing's tears also welled up and fell.
Lu Chuanbai's hand unconsciously reached out and pulled Xu Qingqing back into his arms.
"I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I didn't protect you well."
Xu Qingqing didn't say a word but didn't struggle out of his embrace either.
Then Xu Qingqing slowly fell asleep. She only got out of the car when it reached the Xu family's house.
Xu's father, Xu's mother, and Xu Yan had already heard the news and were anxiously waiting at the door.
Seeing Xu Qingqing get out of the car safely, Xu's father and Xu's mother couldn't hold back their tears.
"My poor daughter. You're finally back. How could you be so unlucky to be kidnapped? Did they do anything to you?"
The two old people sized Xu Qingqing up and down. Xu's father couldn't help saying, "Good girl, you've lost weight."
"Quickly go back and take a shower and freshen up. Mom will cook delicious food for you," Xu's mother said.
Xu An'an and Xu Yi-Yi, the two little guys, also ran out quickly. They hugged Xu Qingqing's legs from the left and right and cried there.
"Mommy, you're finally back."
"Mommy, we were so scared when you weren't here."
"Mommy, don't scare us anymore."
Xu Qingqing wished she could pick up both children.
Surrounded by them, she returned to the living room. Xu Qingqing took a shower and drank some soup. Only then did she feel warm again.
At this time, Xu's father and Xu's mother surrounded Lu Chuanbai and thanked him.
"We're really grateful to you, Mr. Lu. If it weren't for you, our Qingqing wouldn't have been found so quickly."
Lu Chuanbai always behaved very politely. "Miss Xu went to my elder brother's shop to help because of me. I'm also responsible for this matter."
Saying this, he glanced at Xu Qingqing. "Well, from now on, I'll pick up and drop off Miss Xu every day to prevent her from being persecuted by others again."
Hearing his words, Xu's father and Xu's mother were very happy. Xu's mother even directly asked, "Won't this cause you any trouble?"
The implication was that they had already agreed.
"No. It doesn't matter where I work," Lu Chuanbai said.
"Great. That's wonderful," Xu's father and Xu's mother said happily.
They were very happy about this situation.
Not long after, an unexpected guest came.
Xu's father and Xu's mother opened the door, and it turned out to be Lu Fenglin.
After seeing Lu Fenglin, Lu Chuanbai's face immediately turned cold.
"Why are you here? How did you find this place?"
Lu Chuanbai's whole body showed resistance, and his body also tensed up.
Xu's father and Xu's mother were a bit confused.
"Who is this gentleman?"
Lu Fenglin greeted them on his own. "Hello, Uncle and Aunt. I'm Lu Fenglin, a friend of Miss Xu. Lu Chuanbai is my elder brother."
After hearing Lu Fenglin's introduction, Xu's father and Xu's mother showed expressions of understanding.
"So you're the younger brother of Young Master Lu. You two brothers really deserve the name. You're both very handsome."
Hearing the praise from Xu's father and Xu's mother, Lu Chuanbai's face remained unchanged, while Lu Fenglin smiled.
"Thank you, Uncle and Aunt, for your praise."
Lu Chuanbai grabbed Lu Fenglin's arm and said in a low voice, "Come with me."
Outside the door, Lu Chuanbai glared angrily at Lu Fenglin. "What are you doing here?"
Lu Fenglin had already put away his smile just now and instead showed a sinister smile.
"Brother, since she's the girl you like, how could I, your younger brother, not come to pay attention?"
"Brother, let's see who can win Miss Xu's heart. It depends on our own abilities."
Lu Chuanbai frowned. "What are you talking nonsense about? I warn you not to have any thoughts about Miss Xu, or I will never let you go."
Hearing this, Lu Fenglin immediately laughed. "Brother, how could you think of me like this? I'm your dearest younger brother. Back then, when your legs were disabled, I specially found a woman for you to continue the family line."
"But you were so ungrateful, you drove her away sadly, and finally she was burned to death in a fire."
"Brother, how could you be so cruel?"
Lu Chuanbai, who had been quite calm just now, immediately punched Lu Fenglin after hearing this.
"You bastard. If you say one more word, do you believe I'll kill you?"
Lu Fenglin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and still wore a smile. "Brother, you're angry. It seems that you really care about Miss Xu."
"In the past, no matter what I said, you never showed any emotional changes, let alone beat me like this."
"You crazy person. You're a complete lunatic!"
Lu Chuanbai roared in a low voice.
"I warn you to stay away from Miss Xu. She doesn't need you. You're a devil!"
Hearing this, Lu Fenglin's expression became ferocious. "You say I'm a devil. What right do you have to say that about me?"
"If it weren't for your mother back then, how could my mother and I have lived such a life? I watched helplessly as they trampled on our dignity under their feet. My mother knelt down to others every day and served them. It was all your mother's fault."
"Now that the poisonous woman is dead, of course, I'll take all my hatred out on you."
Seeing Lu Fenglin start to insult his mother, Lu Chuanbai finally couldn't hold back and punched him directly.
The two of them started fighting, and Xu's father and Xu's mother were a bit panicked when they heard the commotion.
