Chapter 398: 398. Smiling with a hint of flirtatiousness

"Mo Qing, what brings you here?"

The old man, who was leaning on the bed reading a newspaper, took off his reading glasses and gave Lu Moqing a glance before casually asking.

Lu Moqing came and sat down in front of the old man, smiling brightly, "Grandpa, I came specially to thank you."

This enthusiasm seemed a bit excessive.

Qiao Xu was somewhat unaccustomed to the usually aloof Lu Moqing, who suddenly appeared like a busybody, and couldn’t bear to watch.

Not to mention Qiao Xu, even Old Master Qiao couldn’t stand Lu Moqing’s suddenly enthusiastic appearance. If it weren’t for his good health, he might have been scared to death by this behavior.

"What for?"

"Thank you for sharing half of the soup with me."

Qiao Xu: "..."

Qiao Chong’er: "..."

Old Master Qiao: "..."

The old man looked up, giving Lu Moqing a meaningful gaze, and couldn’t help but smack his lips.

What was with this kid acting like he had never had soup before?

"Hehe!"

He chuckled meaningfully, "I don’t know why our family’s usually stingy cook made soup for two people today. I couldn’t finish it, so I gave it to you."

Qiao Xu: "..."

Lu Moqing: "..."

Upon hearing Old Master Qiao’s words, Lu Moqing hesitated for a moment, then understood the meaning and became overjoyed.

He glanced at Qiao Xu, who was still standing by the door with a blank expression, and the smile in his eyes deepened a little more.

"Alright, you’ve thanked me, now go back and rest. You two should go too, I need to rest as well."

Old Master Qiao put down his newspaper and began to shoo people out.

Seeing that the old man was going to rest, everyone in the ward naturally left, one after another.

Qiao Xu walked alongside Qiao Chong’er, and Lu Moqing insisted on walking close to Qiao Xu. Qiao Xu’s gaze signaled for him to keep distance, but he pretended not to see it.

"Aunt, I have something to say to Xuxu, do you want to join us?"

Lu Moqing looked at "Qiao Light Bulb" with a smile, but the bottom of his eyes expressed his "unwelcome".

Qiao Chong’er saw the disdain in Lu Moqing’s eyes, and rolled her eyes at him before saying to Qiao Xu:

"I’ll wait for you downstairs."

After Qiao Chong’er left, Lu Moqing gazed at Qiao Xu with a smug smile on his face.

Looking at his coquettish smile, Qiao Xu couldn’t help but frown, "What do you want to say?"

Lu Moqing lowered his head, unable to suppress the upward curve at the corner of his lips, and whispered in her ear, "Thank you, Xuxu."

The man’s warm breath, like a soft feather, gently brushed Qiao Xu’s ear, sending a shiver down her spine.

Her ears turned red from the warm breath, and she dodged to the side to avoid Lu Moqing’s smiling eyes, pretending to be calm, "What?"

She heard Lu Moqing’s muted laughter and saw him standing in front of her, gazing at her with a deep frown, "For that bowl of soup."

Qiao Xu’s guilt intensified when he directly pointed out the origin of the soup.

"That soup was made by Chen Ma, and Grandpa shared it with you. Why are you thanking me?"

"Of course, you’re right."

Lu Moqing looked at her with a smile, and Qiao Xu became increasingly uneasy under his gaze.

"Aunt is waiting for me downstairs, I’ll go first."

With that, she turned and quickly walked toward the elevator entrance.

"Xuxu."

Lu Moqing wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.
