Chapter 760: 760. Heart, chilled

The role of a mother and the role of a father, when compared, are still somewhat different.

With that in mind, she moved her dry lips, hoarsely saying, "I’m sorry, I should have consulted you first..."

Your opinion...

Before she could finish the second half of the sentence, Lu Moqing interrupted her with, "Do you even care about me at all?"

Hearing the anger suppressed in his tone, Qiao Xu’s heart couldn’t help but feel a tinge of bitterness.

So, it was because of Qin Shuyi?

Therefore, she shouldn’t have sought revenge on Qin Shuyi for drugging and ruining her?

But at that time, her subconscious believed that no matter what she did, Lu Moqing would always stand by her side.

She lowered her gaze, not making a sound for a long time, and after quite a while, she finally opened her mouth with a hint of resentment:

"I’m sorry."

"I’m sorry?"

Lu Moqing sneered, "If you’re so capable, you don’t need to apologize to me."

As he spoke, he walked past Qiao Xu and out of the bathroom, leaving her with his sarcastic and unpleasant tone, making her frown involuntarily.

She turned and watched the man walk towards the study room with his back to her, her gaze dimming slightly.

She didn’t speak again and stood in place for a while, her heart gradually growing colder.

But the next second, just after entering the study, Lu Moqing opened the door and walked out, his face serious, and approached her with an irritated yet helpless expression, saying:

"Do you have any idea how dangerous tonight was?"

Qiao Xu was taken aback and didn’t understand Lu Moqing’s meaning before hearing him say:

"If the waiter who sought you out deliberately told you about Qin Shuyi and her mother’s plan, would you still have drunk that glass of wine?"

At this moment, Lu Moqing felt somewhat relieved about the island’s strict recruitment system, which involved thorough background checks of the staff’s family to prevent internal threats, ensuring that people on the island would not be easily bought off.

However, humans are unpredictable, and even with the best preparations, accidents can still occur.

Just like the men who broke into the island tonight to kill him.

Even with top-notch security measures on the island, they still managed to break in, didn’t they?

Now, when he thinks about this woman facing that woman Qin Shuyi single-handedly, he could not help but feel a surge of fear.

If... if they had succeeded...

Lu Moqing didn’t even dare to imagine. Just thinking about it made him want to tear that old woman to pieces.

After hearing Lu Moqing’s words, Qiao Xu realized what he was angry about after a long pause.

A faint glimmer appeared in her previously downcast eyes.

"Were you worried about me?"

Upon hearing her question, Lu Moqing narrowed his slightly angry eyes.

"What else do you think?"

Qiao Xu pursed her lips, and her previously low mood instantly improved.

She knew her Island Master couldn’t blame her for Qin Shuyi’s actions.

At first, she hadn’t thought too much about it. After all, if that person really wanted to calculate her, he could have just not told her, and she would have likely fallen for it.

There was no need for him to take that risk, as it could have very likely raised her suspicions.

So, at the time, she chose to believe that waiter. After all, this island belonged to Lu Moqing, and if he helped Qin Shuyi successfully plot against her, not only would he lose his job, but there would also be a worse fate waiting for him.
