CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 240. Mother-in-law

At this moment, Lin Jingshu saw Lu Moqing, and the always gentle face showed a hint of coldness, thinking that Lu Moqing appeared here to take Qiao Yi away.

Qiao Xu had told her about losing the child custody lawsuit shortly after it ended.

Even over the phone, she could hear the loss and sadness in her daughter’s voice, but the child was always so strong-willed, not allowing anyone to see her vulnerability, and she, as a mother, could only pretend not to know.

"Didn’t you already divorce Xuxu? President Lu, I can’t bear the weight of being called mom."

Her voice was soft, still gentle and graceful, but there was a hint of resentment in her tone.

Lu Moqing made a bitter smile in his heart, pursed his lips, and did not refute Lin Jingshu’s words.

"Are you in such a hurry to take Qiao Yi away?"

Lin Jingshu looked at Lu Moqing with sarcasm, her voice much colder than before.

Lu Moqing heard from Lin Jingshu’s words that she must have misunderstood, and this time he didn’t remain silent but explained somewhat urgently:

"Mom, you misunderstood. I’m not here to take Qiao Yi away."

"No? Then why are you here?"

Lin Jingshu’s eyes were full of disbelief.

Looking at the undisguised distrust in Lin Jingshu’s eyes, Lu Moqing’s heart made another bitter smile.

"There are some matters in the branch company that need me to handle."

It wasn’t strange for Lu’s, such a large company, to have branch offices in City C, so when Lin Jingshu heard him say this, she didn’t suspect anything.

Moreover, with Lu Moqing’s arrogant and conceited personality, even if he had won the child custody lawsuit and took Qiao Yi back to the Lu family now, she had no right to say anything.

Lu Moqing didn’t even need to be so courteous and explain so much to her, his former mother-in-law.

Thinking this way, Lin Jingshu’s face looked much better.

Looking at the faces of her grandson and former son-in-law, both big and small, and seeing the undisguised greed in her grandson’s eyes for his father, she sighed in her heart.

"Then I’ll leave Qiao Yi to you. I won’t go in."

"Alright, thank you, mom. Take care."

Seeing the once arrogant kid now so respectful in front of her, Lin Jingshu was a bit unaccustomed. She turned around and got into the car.

As the car drove away from the entrance of the community, the Old Lady, who was sitting in the car and hadn’t gotten out, recalled the scene just now and said:

"That kid Moqing seems to have changed somehow."

Hearing her own mother’s words, Lin Jingshu laughed along, "I couldn’t figure out what he was thinking, either. He calls me ’mom’ more often now than before the divorce."

She knew her daughter best, and if anyone said she could really let go of Lu Moqing completely, she would never believe it.

Her daughter was decisive, efficient, and shrewd in other matters, but when it came to Lu Moqing, she was completely trapped, and it wasn’t easy for her to climb out of such a quagmire.

Not long after the Lin family’s car had left, Qiao Xu returned.

After parking the car and walking to the hallway, she saw Lu Moqing hugging Qiao Yi, standing at the elevator waiting for the elevator, and her face turned a little pale.

Just like Lin Jingshu, she also thought that Lu Moqing came to take Qiao Yi away.

She just didn’t expect Lu Moqing to pick up Qiao Yi in person, so when she saw him on the same flight to City C in the morning, she didn’t think it was for this reason.

When Lu Moqing saw her, his eyebrows twitched slightly. Since he didn’t plan to take Qiao Yi away right now, he thought Qiao Xu’s somewhat unpleasant expression was because of the company matters.
