In the shop opposite the Japanese restaurant, Long Sijue and Long Lin were sitting with their backs toward her direction. But it was impossible for her to mistake those two figures at all…
A woman wearing a black leather coat was sitting opposite the two of them. One side of the woman’s straight black hair was swept behind her ear. Her complexion was fair, and her facial features were delicate and beautiful. When Su Qianxun was staring at that woman, the woman was also staring back at her with an extraordinarily cold gaze.
Su Qianxun lowered her head awkwardly. The waiter handed out the Japanese menu. Gu Mian asked what she wanted to eat, and only discovered that she was actually looking restless and uneasy.
“Qianxun, are you alright?” Gu Mian asked nervously.
“Mian Mian, I suddenly remember that I know a Japanese restaurant that serves even more delicious food. Let’s go eat there!” Su Qianxun glanced at the waiter apologetically. She pulled Gu Mian up and grabbed her belongings before rushing out of the Japanese restaurant.
Long Sijue had already seen Su Qianxun. He only swept his indifferent gaze over her before lowering his head to help Lin’er in eating. Long Lin was currently struggling with the delicious food before him, so he did not notice her.
When Su Qianxun left, she could not help but to turn around and take another glance. She looked at the three people who were sitting and eating together. That beautiful woman was currently helped Long Lin with his meal, and her gaze was fixed on Lin’er face…
That scene seemed like a happy family of three. They appeared so warm and cozy together…
Su Qianxun felt an indescribable pain pierce through her heart. Gu Mian wanted to turn around to look at what Su Qianxun was staring at. Su Qianxun immediately stopped her and pulled her away from the scene.
Long Xiluo looked at Lin’er as she said expressionleslly, “Long Sijue, I really did not think that your taste in women has actually become this hardcore… You actually start to like young girls! Has that young woman reached the age of majority?”
Long Sijue faintly swept his gaze across her, “She’ll be twenty years old after her birthday. She’s already an adult.”
Long Xiluo heard what he said and with a great force, she suddenly slammed her chopsticks onto the table. Lin’er was startled by her reaction and he was staring at her with extremely wide eyes.
“Did you forget about the lesson from last time?! I would never allow you to have feelings for a girl of unknown origins, let alone let Lin’er have a stepmother who is still a child herself!” Long Xiluo said in a very serious tone.
“You’re thinking far too much. She’s only a tool to me. You don’t have to take it to heart.” Long Sijue’s expression was quite cold.
Long Xiluo snorted coldly upon hearing what he said, but she did not say anything further. She said to Lin’er, “Continue to eat.”
Lin’er was startled and he immediately lowered his head and quickly ate his food.
…
Su Qianxun and Gu Mian went back to their own places after they finished eating dinner.
Right now, Su Qianxun was already very certain that Long Sijue did not allow her to return to the apartment anymore because of that woman. That must be the place where that woman had lived before, right?
The clothes that were one size bigger than her were obviously that woman’s size.
Could she be Lin’er’s mother?
Long Sijue had told her something that day, that Lin’er was his son, but not his child…
Judging from the current situation, Lin’er must be his son and also his child. He just did not want to admit and bear the responsibility.
Su Qianxun felt an indescribable sadness in her heart when she thought of that. She returned home, cleaned up and then sat there. She was lost in her thoughts until someone opened the bedroom door, and the person she was currently thinking about walked in from the outside…
Long Sijue walked in and saw the young woman who was lost in her own thoughts, who was sitting on the couch with her arms around her legs. His brows slightly furrowed together as he asked, “Why you’re not asleep? It’s already very late… I’ll go and take a shower first. Be good, go to bed and wait for me there.”
