"Sorry, Mr. Lu. My wife has some mental issues. She has a mental illness and can't control herself from swearing. Please don't take it to heart!"
Lu Chuanbai's face remained as cold as ice. Wang Qinglei, seeing the red light flashing, even sounded like he was about to cry by the end.
Mrs. Wang touched her rapidly swelling cheek, which burned with pain. She let out a shrill scream and reached out to scratch at Wang Qinglei's face.
"How dare you hit me!"
This time, Wang Qinglei didn't indulge his wife anymore. He directly pushed her to the ground.
"Enough! Do you want to ruin the entire Wang family? This is Mr. Lu!"
This was Lu Chuanbai, their golden ticket!
"Mr. Lu? You're Mr. Lu..."
Mrs. Wang landed on her butt with a thud. She looked at Lu Chuanbai's face in disbelief.
How could the president of the prestigious Lu Group be mixed up with a low - class woman like Xu Qingqing...
Mrs. Wang then remembered how her husband had been singing Lu Chuanbai's praises in her ear all day about how important he was to their company. Only then did she belatedly get up to apologize.
"Mr. Lu, Qingqing, you adults should not bear grudges against a villain. Please don't hold it against me. I have a mental illness. Don't be angry..." Mrs. Wang forced out a smile that looked worse than crying.
"Mom, Dad, how can you apologize to the bad guys!"
Wang Yu had thought her parents were coming to support her, but instead, they were the ones apologizing.
She pointed at Lu Chuanbai dissatisfiedly. "You're a big bad guy. You should be locked up in prison for life!"
Slap! Slap!
Wang Qinglei slapped his own children across the face. The two spoiled kids had never been hit before. They immediately covered their faces and cried.
"Apologize to Yiyi and An'an right now!" Wang Qinglei roared and pretended to raise his hand to hit the kids again. "If you don't apologize, I'll hit you again!"
As he said this, Wang Qinglei showed a fierce expression. The two kids were so scared that they cried even louder. They had never seen such a rough - looking father before.
Lu Chuanbai watched with a cold face, showing no sympathy at all. Instead, he thought this was the consequence of bullying his precious kids.
Xu Qingqing, as a mother, seeing the two kids crying so hard that they couldn't speak, tried to smooth things over. "Okay, stop hitting the kids."
"Uncle, don't hit Wang Yu and Wang Jin!"
Xu An'an, seeing the swollen cheeks of the two kids, quickly came out to plead.
"As long as they don't bully me and my brother anymore and return our toys, I'll forgive them."
Xu An'an was both beautiful and kind - hearted. Even after being wronged for so many days, she only asked for the damaged toys to be returned.
Xu Qingqing couldn't help but give her daughter a mental thumbs - up. Her daughter was really too kind.
In Lu Chuanbai's eyes, Xu An'an seemed to have grown a pair of little angel wings and was surrounded by pink bubbles. He really wanted to pick her up and kiss her.
"Uncle will definitely buy you new toys!"
Wang Qinglei wiped the sweat off his face and promised.
Xu Qingqing didn't want the two kids to be exposed to the world of fame and fortune any longer. She grabbed Xu Yiyi and Xu An'an's hands. "Let's go home. Leave the rest to Uncle Lu!"
Lu Chuanbai watched the three of them leave. He really enjoyed the feeling of Xu Qingqing leaving everything to him.
After they disappeared from his sight, he turned around. The tenderness on his face disappeared, leaving only the coldness and dignity of a superior.
"Wang Qinglei, your kids are really something. They're so good at bullying others."
The judgment finally came. Drops of cold sweat rolled down Wang Qinglei's face. He forced out a trembling smile. "Sorry, it's all my fault for not teaching them well. It will never happen again..."
"Do you still want there to be a next time?" Lu Chuanbai asked and answered himself. "Your family lives so close to my two kids. I don't know if you'll take revenge on my kids when I'm not around."
A heavy stone seemed to press down on Wang Qinglei. Drops of cold sweat kept coming out. "We'll move right away. I'll take the two kids to study in a neighboring city. We'll never come back!"
"Okay then." Lu Chuanbai nodded slightly. Although he didn't say anything substantial, it gave Wang Qinglei a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.
Wang Qinglei tentatively asked, "Mr. Lu, the matter between the kids won't affect the cooperation between our two companies, right..."
"You mean this..." A malicious and teasing smile appeared on Lu Chuanbai's face. "But I really don't like the red suit President Wang is wearing. I think it's better if we stop the cooperation."
After saying that, Lu Chuanbai turned around and left.
Mrs. Wang, who had been pretending to be crazy and stupid on the side, couldn't help but protest. "He's so unreasonable. We've already made concessions and are moving away. Why won't he cooperate with us anymore!"
"Shut up!" Wang Qinglei roared. "It's already good that Mr. Lu didn't cause trouble for our company. If you say one more word, I'll hit you again!"
After saying that, Wang Qinglei kicked each of the kids on the butt and said irritably, "Stop crying! You good - for - nothings. Go home and pack your luggage!"
Dark clouds were rolling, and thunder was rumbling. A heavy rain was about to come.
When Lu Chuanbai arrived at the Xu family's door, the door was tightly closed.
Lu Chuanbai frowned slightly, then casually rang the doorbell.
Ding - dong. No one answered the first time, so he rang it a second time. Still no answer, so he rang it a third time... Finally, Xu Qingqing in the living room got annoyed.
Xu Qingqing slammed the table.
What was Lu Chuanbai doing!
Not opening the door meant she didn't welcome him. Was it necessary to ring the doorbell so many times!
Xu Yiyi, who was watching cartoons on the side, said, "Mommy, let me go and open the door for Uncle Lu. He protected us today."
Xu Qingqing quickly stopped him and casually made an excuse. "You stay at home. Your wound can't be exposed to the wind."
"Okay." Xu Yiyi obediently sat back down.
Xu Qingqing reluctantly opened the door. Looking at the smiling man, she lowered her voice. "What on earth do you want?"
"I'm here to deliver medicine!" Lu Chuanbai said and then lifted the plastic bag in his hand, which contained iodine and band - aids. "Remember to clean his wound every two days."
"Thank you." Although Xu Qingqing didn't want to see Lu Chuanbai, she wouldn't joke about the kids' health. She snatched the plastic bag from Lu Chuanbai's hand and then issued an order to leave.
"Okay, you can go now!"
"So heartless. It's going to rain, and you're still kicking me out." Lu Chuanbai said with a melancholy tone, but his eyes kept looking inside the door. "Has Tang Li left? Why didn't I see him come out today?"
Xu Qingqing said angrily, "He's left!"
"I thought he'd stay here all the time." The smile on Lu Chuanbai's face widened.
It was good that he had left.
Xu Qingqing got angry when she saw the smile on his face. That smile made it seem as if he was bound to win her and the kids.
Xu Qingqing slammed the door shut, locking Lu Chuanbai outside.
Boom! A loud thunder roared outside, and the downpour came suddenly.
Xu An'an covered her ears and asked Xu Qingqing, "Mom, has Uncle Lu left?"
