Chapter 449 Chips
The housekeeper evaded Xin Lu with a few words and asked her to go back temporarily. She was so thirsty from talking so hard, but she couldn't even enter the Mao family's door. She couldn't help feeling a little angry.
But seeing that the housekeeper was still smiling, Xin Lu was too embarrassed to get angry. Who told her that she didn't have such a background? She also understood what the housekeeper meant, so she handed a letter to the housekeeper as Lin Ge said.
After Xin Lu left, the housekeeper did not dare to stop and hurried to find Mao Hongqing. He told Mao Hongqing everything Xin Lu had said today.
The more Mao Hongqing listened, the more frightened he became.
"Sir, I think this woman must be here to deceive you. She said she knows where your three children are. Sir, where do you have three children? Didn't you say that the two children died with the late wife?"
Listening to the housekeeper's words, Mao Hongqing frowned. As for whether the two children were dead or not, he really had no way to make a conclusion. After all, he hadn't even seen Ling Zhuoyi again.
He admitted that he felt guilty towards her, but she shouldn't have thought of trapping him with their son. He should have had a better future than he has now.
"Where is that woman now?" Mao Hongqing's expression suddenly became serious. The person who knew all of his past must be someone who was very familiar with him.
"I have sent her away, but she gave me this before she left." The butler handed the envelope to Mao Hongqing.
It records everything that happened in the past ten years, from how he went from a poor boy to climb up step by step, until he went abroad and inherited the Mao family's property after returning. It tells every detail.
Even Mao Hongqing had forgotten some of the processes, but this letter, like a brand, deeply hurt his heart.
"This contains the address of this lady. Invite her to your home after some time. Remember, don't be disrespectful to your guests, okay?"
The housekeeper didn't expect that Mao Hongqing was really affected by the letter given by the other party. In his opinion, that woman was arrogant. Why should the gentleman be nice to such a person?
"Sir, I think we should examine her carefully first. We can't let anyone lead us by the nose. What if this woman is..."
Before he could even utter the word "liar", Mao Hongqing stopped him.
"Just do as I say." Mao Hongqing also wanted to know what the other party was up to. He couldn't possibly come and tell him that he was a scumbag and give him a slap in the face.
On the other hand, if someone asked him for something, he would also like to know how much leverage the other party could give him.
For example, what is the current whereabouts of his son and daughter?
When this man got old, he loved to go over old grudges and wanted to make up to those he owed in the past. Otherwise, he wouldn't be pouring all his affection on Kevin now, making Kevin so spoiled.
Soon, the housekeeper found the address Xin Lu listed, but the person he saw was not Xin Lu alone, but also a woman in a wheelchair. The housekeeper could tell at a glance that the person behind was the woman in the wheelchair, not Xin Lu.
"Ladies, our husband said that our boss will be waiting for you at the manor next Tuesday. You are welcome to come for the appointment."
The housekeeper left politely, and Lin Ge curled his lips at Xin Lu: "Look, the fish has taken the bait, hasn't it?"
"You still have a solution." Xin Lu gave Lin Ge a thumbs up.
Lin Ge had known for a long time that Mao Hongqing would not easily meet someone he didn't know, but this letter was different. Even if the housekeeper didn't know what the content of the letter was, he would definitely show it to Mao Hongqing.
In the end, the initiative will return to their hands again. "So what should we do next? I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go on a date like this?"
"Of course I won't go to the appointment just like that. When the time comes, we'll do this."
Lin Ge hooked her finger and asked Xin Lu to lean close to her ear and whispered a few words. Xin Lu's face instantly showed joy: "I'll do it right away."
Lin Ge narrowed his eyes and said, "Li Luo, Li Luo, even if you want to protect the child, what does it matter if you don't tell Mao Hongqing the truth? Can you, by yourself, stop everyone from talking?"
Soon, the day of the appointment arrived. Lin Ge and Xin Lu were both dressed in their best and were picked up by the butler. When the butler's car drove to the family compound, those people were still wondering, who could sit in such a high-end car?
Amidst everyone's shocked gazes, Lin Ge and Xin Lu got into the car without looking away.
Even Qi Shutong was puzzled. He didn't even know the man named Mao, so how did Lin Ge get in touch with him?
Moreover, Lin Ge never told them that she would be involved with the Mao family. How frustrating it would be for Qi Liancheng for a woman to go on a date and have dinner with a man like this?
But Qi Liancheng can't care about these now.
"Brother Liancheng, what should I do? I'm pregnant with your child now..." Cheng Lu was still holding Qi Liancheng and Lin Ge's child in her arms, but her eyes were full of worry.
"How could this be? Didn't we take measures on a daily basis?" Qi Liancheng couldn't make up his mind. Having one child now was enough to give him a headache, let alone another one.
Ever since Lin Ge discovered what was going on between him and Cheng Lu, not only did they not restrain themselves, but they became even more open about it. Whenever Cheng Lu and Qi Liancheng were wronged, the two of them would use this as an opportunity to comfort each other.
I didn't expect that after this comfort, something unexpected would happen again.
"Give birth to the child. I will raise him." Qi Liancheng said seriously.
"But...but you still have sister Xiaoge." Cheng Lu bit her lips, her eyes filled with tears that seemed about to fall.
"You know, there is no love between her and me anymore. If it wasn't for my responsibility that caused her to become like that, I wouldn't be as miserable as I am now. I almost lost my job because of him."
"And Nana is too disobedient. If she had listened to me and married Xiao Xiao, I would have no problem consolidating my position. But now, I've been in the company for so long, but my salary is not even as high as that of a new intern."
"My leaders no longer value me."
"Brother Liancheng, relax. Others are prejudiced against you, but I can see your shining points. Brother Liancheng, Cheng Cheng will always be by your side."
Looking at Cheng Lu, who was as eloquent as a flower, Qi Liancheng's heart softened. Fortunately, he and Cheng Lu had expressed their true feelings to each other at the beginning, otherwise, he would definitely be driven crazy by Lin Ge now...
"You still remember to come back?" Qi Shutong was furious when he saw Qi Liancheng: "Do you know what the neighbors are saying about our family now?"
"You can't even control your own wife and let her have dinner with other men. What will others think of you?"
