Fu Jingshu frowned slightly, "I didn't lie to you."
Shen Qingqing didn't believe him at all, and even felt he had no sincerity in explaining. "Since you don't want to say it, then don't. The deed is done, and you've already let her go. Saying anything now is useless."
"Although she's out, she's learned her lesson and promised me she won't make a move against you again..."
Before Fu Jingshu could finish, Shen Qingqing let out a light laugh. He immediately stopped talking. "What are you laughing at?"
"When did you become so naive?"
It was the first time Fu Jingshu had been called naive, and his expression immediately turned grim.
"You believe her just because she said she wouldn't," Shen Qingqing thought about how he had delayed Xingyao's birthday because of Lin Minglan and let her go without discussion. She was full of unvented anger and found him irritating. "You can go. I don't want to see you."
She turned to leave the kitchen, but Fu Jingshu appeared in front of her in a flash.
"Are you jealous?"
Shen Qingqing was amused by his words, "Get out of the way."
Her tone was too cold and dismissive. Fu Jingshu stiffened and moved aside. She immediately left the kitchen and walked upstairs without stopping.
"Can you stop making a scene?" Fu Jingshu's slightly tired voice sounded from behind her.
Shen Qingqing stopped and looked back at him, her eyes filled with unprecedented coldness and disappointment. "Is that what you think? You think I'm making a scene."
"If it's because I'm late, I apologize. If it's because of Lin Minglan, I can explain," Fu Jingshu said with what he thought was the utmost patience. However, her expression didn't change at all after he spoke.
She even seemed annoyed.
He didn't understand and felt a wave of frustration. "Then what do you want me to do?"
Shen Qingqing's anger dissipated like a deflated balloon, leaving only disappointment. "Do whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me."
Fu Jingshu's face also turned cold. "Are you determined to pick a fight with me?"
"Think whatever you want."
Shen Qingqing's attitude was too harsh. Fu Jingshu looked at her deeply, picked up his phone from the table and his coat from the chair, and turned to walk towards the door.
"Wait a moment."
Shen Qingqing's voice came from behind him.
He stopped, his heart stirring.
"Don't forget to bring the children back to me." This sentence made his heart sink to the bottom. He left without looking back after saying only this.
"I never go back on my word."
That evening, a car stopped in front of the villa. Shen Qingqing heard the sound and opened the window. She saw Shen Jinxi and Chenchen getting out of the car.
She understood and turned to go downstairs.
When they saw her, the two children immediately ran towards her excitedly, threw themselves into her arms, and called out in unison.
"Mommy!"
Shen Qingqing responded, quickly crouching down to check on the two children. Only when she confirmed they were not injured did she feel relieved. "It's all Mommy's fault. It was Mommy's negligence that caused you to be taken away."
"It's not Mommy's fault!" Shen Jinxi shook his head vigorously, his slightly curly hair swaying. "It's because we weren't smart or capable enough that we were captured, causing Mommy to worry."
Chenchen nodded in agreement, his face full of guilt.
Shen Qingqing was touched by their understanding and heartbroken by how sensible they were. She said gently, "Alright, then Mommy and you will improve together from now on. You'll never leave Mommy, okay?"
"Okay!"
The two children were unusually well-behaved.
The driver behind them looked on in amazement. These two young masters were not like this at home. Chenchen was silent, always lost in his own world.
The other one would respond, but his words were like knives, always making it difficult for people to respond. No one at home could handle him.
But here, these two little devils were as obedient as ordinary children in front of her.
It was truly strange!
Shen Qingqing glanced at the car. Seeing only the driver, her expression darkened slightly. "Thank you for bringing the children back. You've worked hard."
The driver quickly waved his hands, "It's nothing. Actually, Mr. wanted to bring them himself, but..."
"It's late. You should go back early."
The driver was choked, and seeing her smiling face, it seemed as if she didn't think interrupting someone was impolite, unless... she did it intentionally.
Had Miss Shen and Mr. had a falling out?
The driver didn't dare to ask more. "Then I'll be going. If you need anything, call Mr."
Shen Qingqing smiled without a word.
Calling him was impossible, absolutely impossible!
Having not seen the two children for several days, Shen Qingqing decided to sleep with them that night. As soon as she returned to her room, she received a call from Lu Junze.
"There's an international design competition tomorrow. I got you an invitation. Do you want to go?"
Given Shen Qingqing's talent and love for design, she would likely go.
But now she was busy with her relationship...
Lu Junze was actually unsure.
"I'll go."
Lu Junze was a little surprised but didn't ask further. "Okay, then I'll book your flight."
Less than half an hour after hanging up, he sent her the boarding time.
Coincidentally, the three children were still awake. The last time they parted, Xingyao had been injured, and the two children were worried about her. This time, they finally met and had a lot to talk about.
Shen Qingqing asked, "Since you're not sleepy, how about Mommy take you abroad today?"
"Why are we going abroad?" Shen Jinxi asked curiously. He thought Mommy had brought them home, meaning they weren't leaving.
"Mommy is going abroad to participate in a competition and take you out to play," Shen Qingqing petted his small face. As for the other reason...
There was no need to say it.
Shen Jinxi volunteered to help pack clothes. With his help, Shen Qingqing quickly packed her luggage and took the children on a plane overnight.
In the early morning, Shen Qingqing and the children got off the plane. Meanwhile, Fu Jingshu was about to go to the company when he received news from Lin Mo.
"Miss Shen has gone abroad, and the two young masters have been taken with her."
Fu Jingshu's hand, which was holding his phone, tightened.
She actually left!
Lin Mo, on the other end of the phone, didn't dare to breathe. After much hesitation, he was about to speak when a secretary rushed in, her face full of panic.
"It's bad, Assistant Lin! Miss Lin is about to jump from the building!"
Lin Mo's eyes widened. "Lin Minglan? Is this woman crazy? She's just been released and is causing trouble again. Does she want to go back to the police station?!"
After saying that, he remembered he was still on the phone with Master Fu. He subconsciously looked at his phone. His lips moved, but before he could speak, a cold voice came from the phone.
"I know. I'll be there immediately."
Lin Mo sighed inwardly. It's over!
Master Fu is already in a bad mood, and Lin Minglan has come to the company to cause trouble. She's tired of living!
Despite his thoughts, he hurried to the company's top floor.
He had to quell the situation before it escalated!
