Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: Anger

Lu Ningzhou left, and Lu Yichen also went out with his wife and daughter. Luo Qiao didn’t ask about the people from yesterday, and neither did Lu Yichen. He was only thinking about taking them out for a good time today.

The weather was nice today, and the family first went to the park. Yanyan clamored for a boat ride, so Lu Yichen bought tickets and lined up, repeatedly cautioning them not to move around on the boat because it could easily tip over and they might fall into the lake.

Once on the boat, the two children were obedient, but they kept wanting to touch the water in the lake. Unfortunately, their arms were too short, so they had to rely on the adults’ help. The two sisters even sang songs they had learned at kindergarten, filling the boat with laughter and songs.

When they were nearing Lake Heart Island, Yanyan curiously asked, "Mom, can we go up there to play?"

Luo Qiao pointed to the sign next to them, "It’s under repair now, no visitors are allowed. Next time we’ll have the chance, Daddy and Mommy will bring you over to play."

Yueyue also looked at it with curiosity, and Luo Qiao said with a smile, "There’s a temple up there, we’ll take you to see it next time."

The two little ones were somewhat disappointed, but they quickly adjusted. Luo Qiao took plenty of photos of them, and noticing it was getting late, mainly because it was too sunny, she said, "Brother Chen, let’s row back."

Luo Qiao turned to her two daughters, "We’re going to row back now, and take you to eat something delicious for lunch."

Overjoyed, Yanyan and Yueyue forgot they were on a boat and jumped up, causing the boat to suddenly wobble. Luo Qiao quickly hugged Yanyan close, "My little ancestors, this is a boat; keep this up and all four of us will have to take a bath."

The whole family laughed.

A few meters away from the shore, a piercing scream shattered the family’s cheerful laughter.

"Ah, help, save me, save my child!"

Lu Yichen didn’t think twice, turned his head to Luo Qiao, and said, "Take care of the children."

He then stood up and dove into the water. The small boat rocked violently, almost tipping Yueyue into the water, who wasn’t on her guard.

Luo Qiao quickly reached out her hand, pulling the frightened Yueyue into her embrace, and drawing Yanyan into her other arm, squeezing them tight with her legs to prevent them from falling into the lake, her hands gripping the side of the boat.

She was somewhat angry at this moment. Couldn’t he wait for her to get hold of the children? Wasn’t he afraid that with such a jump, the children sitting next to him would be thrown into the lake?

This was the first time Luo Qiao was angry with Lu Yichen. He had disregarded his own daughter’s safety for someone else’s. Call her melodramatic or say she was being unreasonable, she just felt upset.

Since they were not far from the shore, Luo Qiao, after the boat stabilized, told the children to sit still, rowed back to the shore, and returned the boat.

From a distance, she saw Lu Yichen had already rescued the child, saw him turning around in the water, and then swimming towards the shore.

Luo Qiao, her two daughters recovering from the shock, started walking outward. She wasn’t against saving lives, but not at the expense of their own children’s safety. Although the incident had a reason today, she couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

Yanyan looked up at her mother, whose face had lost its smile, "Mommy, aren’t we waiting for Daddy?"

Luo Qiao forced a smile, "We’ll go have lunch first, Daddy will find us after doing his good deed."

Yueyue, with a frown on her little forehead, said, "Mommy, Daddy’s clothes are all wet."

Luo Qiao patted her little daughter’s head, "It’s alright, Daddy is an adult and will figure something out."

Yanyan was still worried about Daddy, "Mommy, can we wait here for Daddy, please?"

Looking at her daughter’s concerned expression, Luo Qiao softened, but still said, "We’ll go to the restaurant and order our food. He’ll come to find us after he’s finished. If we go late, there won’t be any seats left, and we won’t get to eat something tasty."

Yanyan was conflicted, her little face showing a range of emotions, which eased Luo Qiao’s anger considerably. In the end, Luo Qiao made the decision for her and led her away.

Luo Qiao took her two children straight to Old Mo’s, ordered a salad, some bread, and grilled sausages to be served first.

Then she ordered a tin of stewed beef, cream-roasted mix, red-stewed lamb intestines, two steaks, and because the weather was nice, broke the rule and ordered a serving of ice cream for everyone.

After all, they were just kids, and the two little ones had already pushed thoughts of their dad to the back of their minds.
