Chapter 393. Neither about hate nor about love

Chapter 393: 393. Neither about hate nor about love

He could have investigated that night’s incident further, even if those people were killed, he had a way to find out.

Then, he wouldn’t have to be separated from Xuxu, and he wouldn’t have missed Qiao Yi’s birth and growth.

Once he thought about it, Lu Moqing’s heart was once again pierced with thousands of knives.

Qiao Xu saw Lu Moqing’s gloomy face and his furrowed eyebrows, not knowing what he was thinking about.

As she was wondering about it, she suddenly felt her hand at her side being tightly gripped by a warm hand, with quite a bit of force.

She looked up at him abruptly and saw deeply ingrained self-blame and apology on his face. He spoke in a hoarse voice:

"I’m sorry."

This was not the first time Lu Moqing apologized to her, but at this moment, when she saw the strong self-blame in his deep black eyes, she felt a strange emotion.

She didn’t know how to respond to him.

To say it doesn’t matter? She’s not a saint, she can’t be that magnanimous.

To be cold or even sarcastic like before?

She found that she couldn’t do that either.

Now, she couldn’t even define the relationship between her and Lu Moqing.

They could only be considered acquaintances, at most.

There’s not hatred, nor love, simply getting along in such a plain way is more suitable.

Keeping a calm face, she slipped her hand out of Lu Moqing’s grasp, with an indifferent expression, "Don’t bring up the past anymore."

As she said this, she paused and suddenly narrowed her eyes, with a hint of warning in their depths, "But...if I find out that Su Rou set me up back then, even if she saved Lu Xintong’s life, I’ll still make her pay."

As she narrowed her eyes, a dangerous glint appeared in her beautiful pupils, "If your sister dares to come in front of me, I’ll teach her a lesson too, and you better not be heartbroken about it."

Lu Moqing looked at her, chuckled lightly, and said, "I won’t be heartbroken! She’s just a fool; you can knock some sense into her."

As he said that, he couldn’t help but raise his hand to stroke her soft long hair, with a warm smile in his eyes.

Qiao Xu: "..."

If Lu Xintong heard her brother say this, would her heart disease relapse?

However, Lu Moqing’s answer satisfied her to some extent, and the dangerous expression on her face gradually disappeared.

Seeing that Lu Moqing’s bowl in front of him was empty, she reached out to clean it up.

Seeing the nearly empty soup bowl in front of him, Lu Moqing felt a bit disappointed.

It finished so quickly, and it seemed...there was no reason for her to stay here any longer.

As Qiao Xu put the lid back on the thermos, Lu Moqing suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, "Is there more? I still want to drink."

Qiao Xu: "..."

Is Chen Ma’s cooking really that good?

Even someone as picky as him wants a second bowl?

Looking at the undisguised anticipation in Lu Moqing’s eyes, Qiao Xu glanced at the thermos in her hand and said, "There’s none left."

Lu Moqing’s gaze dimmed, and his face was instantly filled with disappointment, "Oh."

So, is she leaving now?

Can’t she stay and talk with him a bit longer?

Qiao Xu saw his disappointed expression, thinking that he must have really enjoyed Chen Ma’s soup.

She originally didn’t want to pay attention to him, but seeing his pale face, she felt a bit reluctant. After hesitating for a moment, she said:

"I’ll have Chen Ma make more tomorrow, and I’ll share some with you."

As soon as Lu Moqing heard this, his face immediately lit up, and the disappointment from before was instantly swept away.
