“Mommy, Yuejia will be very sad if Yuejia doesn’t see Mommy. Also, if Mommy doesn’t want anyone to know about Mommy and Daddy’s relationship, Yuejia can call you Sis Le Tian.” Ding Yuejia blinked his huge eyes at his mother.
Sis?
Ding Junqi’s lips twitched. Was this his son’s attempt at rebelling?
“I’m Yuejia’s tutor. How do you explain the fact that I suddenly became your assistant?” Le Tian relented. However, she still felt that something was off even though she could not pinpoint what it was.
Ding Junqi seemed to be a little frustrated too. In the end, he pushed the matter to Yu Dong. “Yu Dong should know a way. Don’t worry.”
“Oh, yay! I can be with Mommy every day from now on. I’m so happy!”
All of Le Tian’s suspicions vanished when she saw Ding Yue’s excited expression. Whatever. She would do anything as long as he was happy.
Le Tian was about to say something when her phone that she left outside suddenly rang. Le Tian wheeled herself around and picked up the phone outside, missing the high-five between the father and the son.
“Daddy, remember to give me the latest Transformers model I want,” Ding Yuejia reminded him.
“Got it.” Ding Junqi tapped his son’s little head. Ding Yuejia might throw a temper tantrum after waking up, but he was not so disobedient as to wail.
He did that to soften Le Tian’s heart.
After interacting with her for the past few days, Ding Junqi understood that Le Tian was a woman with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. As long as he tricked her using the ruse of inflicting injuries on himself, his plan would definitely work.
“Hello—” Le Tian answered the call. The person on the other end did not speak. Le Tian called out a few times, but no one spoke.
Le Tian looked at her phone curiously. “That’s weird.”
“Who is it?” Ding Junqi asked as he came out with Ding Yuejia.
“Mommy, hug me—”
Beep beep—
Le Tian, “…”
Le Tian put down her phone and took Ding Yuejia. “You’re nearly six years old. You can’t always ask to be carried. I can’t keep carrying you forever.”
Ding Yuejia hugged Le Tian’s neck and kept kissing her on the cheek, acting coquettishly with his mother.
Ding Junqi lowered his head and glanced at the screen that had yet to dim down. He memorized the series of numbers on the screen.
“Oh, right. By the way, Lin Xuan has been arrested. You can tell your mother to stop liking her.” Ding Junqi went to the kitchen and brought some milk for Ding Yuejia to drink.
Le Tian placed Ding Yuejia on the sofa. “Lin Xuan’s arrested? Why?”
“Qian Yikun discovered a murder case a few days ago. The recording that Lin Xuan wanted to frame me yesterday was sent to the email of the deceased. The deceased was the one who revealed that you were my lover,” Ding Junqi explained.
Le Tian, “…”
So complicated.
In the police station, everyone was still waiting for Lin Xuan to be escorted back.
Mo Fei came to the police station early in the morning and was told that Captain Qian had not rested the whole night and was currently resting in his office.
Mo Fei raised an eyebrow. So, did Qian Yikun lie when he said that he was going home to rest last night?
She went up to the third floor and entered Qian Yikun’s office. He was leaning against the door with his back. He looked like he was really resting.
“Is she here? I’ll go over now,” Qian Yikun said. He turned around and saw Mo Fei standing at the door. Qian Yikun collapsed into his chair again. “Why are you here?”
Mo Fei closed the door and went over. “Just to check if my man has died from fatigue.” She leaned on the table and lifted Qian Yikun’s chin with one hand as she spoke.
My man?
Hmm~
These two words sounded pretty good.
Qian Yikun reached out and held Mo Fei’s hand. “The cocktail party is about to start. Aren’t you supposed to be preparing for that?”
