CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce -
Chapter 1156. Longevity Lock
Chapter 1156: 1156. Longevity Lock
Lu Moqing didn’t know what she was planning to do, but he didn’t stop her either.
Seeing her go to the kitchen, moments later, she came out with two cups of coffee, placing one in front of Lu Moqing, saying:
"Have a cup of coffee and let’s talk slowly."
Looking at the cup of coffee, Lu Moqing thought of the banquet in the presidential residence nine years ago, when Rong Ying drugged his wine, his eyebrows furrowed, and he didn’t intend to touch the coffee.
Rong Ying noticed that he didn’t move, seemingly guessing his concern, and smiled self-mockingly, saying:
"Don’t worry, I didn’t add anything to it."
She pointed her eyes at the outside of the house, saying:
"There must be quite a few of your people out there, even if I added something, could I escape?"
Lu Moqing didn’t say anything, but his eyebrows and eyes relaxed slightly.
Rong Ying didn’t insist on him drinking the coffee, she picked up the coffee in front of her and took a small sip, saying:
"Moqing, after this, we probably won’t be able to have coffee together like this again."
There was a tinge of disappointment in Rong Ying’s voice.
Lu Moqing glanced at her and responded heavily.
No matter what feelings he held for Rong Ying, the matter of her masterminding his father’s death back then couldn’t be overlooked.
From now on, Rong Ying’s remaining years could only be spent in prison.
He looked at Rong Ying, this intelligent, and knowledgeable woman, her eyes filled with sadness and vicissitudes in an instant.
Lu Moqing pondered for a moment before reaching for the coffee and taking it to his mouth.
Rong Ying’s voice continued to come from his left side——
"For all these years, every time you came to ask me about your father’s accident, I was always on edge, afraid that you’d trace it to me."
Lu Moqing’s gaze slowly lifted and looked at her.
"I’m not afraid of prison, nor the death penalty. What I fear most is that the child, whom I’ve treated like my own since childhood, will end up hating me."
She looked at Lu Moqing with complicated emotions.
This child, though he looked more like Qin Shuyi, had an expression in his eyebrows and eyes that resembled his father, Lu Jun.
She loved and hated Lu Jun, and so did this child.
She truly loved this child, but also hated him. This complex and contradictory feeling tortured her for over twenty years.
Lu Moqing’s hand, holding the coffee cup, tightened imperceptibly.
He saw the faint tears in Rong Ying’s eyes, though light, they stirred up waves in his heart.
His throat was choked up, as if blocked by a stone, unable to go up or down.
"By the way."
Rong Ying once again stood up from the sofa and quickly went upstairs.
A moment later, she came down from upstairs with a redwood box in her hands.
She sat down next to Lu Moqing and opened the box.
Inside was a palm-sized golden longevity lock, saying:
"This is for your unborn child."
Lu Moqing was stunned, only to hear Rong Ying say:
"That day, when I went to the Lu family, Qiao Xu said that when the child was born, he would call me ’grandma’. So, I thought, since he’s going to call me grandma, I should at least prepare a gift for him, right?"
She stuffed the box into Lu Moqing’s hand, saying:
"I won’t have a chance to put it on the child myself, can you help me take it back?"
Lu Moqing held the redwood box, feeling a little heavy.
He really wanted to ask her why, knowing this, she still planned for him to personally destroy the child back then, didn’t she know what that meant?
