Chapter 1970 - 1943: Lingling’s Grievance
The moment she thought about it, those crystalline tears couldn’t be controlled as they slid down her small cheeks, her aggrieved expression evoking a wave of heartache.
Seeing Lingling like this, Lu Tianxing immediately bent down and picked her up, gently wiping the tears from her little face with his hand, and softly asked, "Lingling, what exactly happened?"
"Daddy, it’s all Lingling’s fault."
Speaking, Lingling lowered her head with a face full of grievance, "I accidentally lost my balance while washing my hands and bumped into the big sister next to me, wetting her clothes, and the big sister got very angry..."
"But Lingling apologized to her, yet she wouldn’t accept it and made Lingling kneel on the ground to apologize."
The tears on Lingling’s face slipped down her cheeks like broken beads, evoking heartache, "Then Mommy came, and Mommy said we could compensate her, but the big sister said Mom can’t afford it and wouldn’t accept it. And as Mom was taking me away, the big sister stopped her, and then Mom started arguing with her..."
Upon hearing Lingling’s explanation, Lu Tianxing gradually understood what had happened and softly asked, "Where’s your mom?"
"Still arguing with the big sister over there."
"Lingling, don’t be afraid. Daddy is here! Good girl, don’t cry, Daddy will stand up for you."
Lu Tianxing raised his finger and gently wiped the tears from Lingling’s face, his eyes narrowing slightly, flashing a cold glint. His loved ones couldn’t be bullied by just anyone, if the person really continued relentlessly, then he couldn’t be blamed for being rude.
Speaking, Lu Tianxing directly carried Lingling and walked outside.
"Mr. Lu..."
Qiu Tianrui, seeing Lu Tianxing’s actions, instinctively wanted to say something.
But before Qiu Tianrui could finish speaking, Lu Tianxing interrupted him and said, "Young Master Qiu, Lingling is my daughter, and now my daughter has been bullied. Do you think I should not stand up for her?"
As the words fell, Lu Tianxing didn’t give Qiu Tianrui a chance to speak again, directly walking out of the private room.
Seeing this scene, Qiu Tianrui had no hesitation and stood up from his seat immediately, following closely behind Lu Tianxing, his face also somewhat unpleasant. He wanted to see exactly who had the audacity to make his niece kneel down to apologize. Did they think the Qiu Family was easy to bully?
With Lingling in his arms, guided by her, Lu Tianxing walked all the way toward the restroom. Even before getting close, he already heard the sounds of intense arguing, some people were standing at the restroom door pointing inside but didn’t go in.
Hearing the continuous sounds of arguing, Lu Tianxing’s eyebrows raised slightly, and his face darkened a bit. He could tell Qiu Yingrong at this moment was extremely angry.
Although Lu Tianxing hadn’t interacted much with Qiu Yingrong, he didn’t really understand her either, but he could see Qiu Yingrong’s personality was intellectual and graceful; she would rarely get angry unless extremely provoked and would not argue in public.
Listening to another woman’s angry curses, Lu Tianxing’s face became more unpleasant, his entire being emitting a cold aura. After all, he had close encounters with Qiu Yingrong, strictly speaking, Qiu Yingrong was his woman. Now that his woman was being bullied, if he remained indifferent, he wouldn’t be a man.
Qiu Tianrui’s face also turned somber at this moment. Qiu Yingrong was his sister, he had never seen her this angry in his life, so his heart could imagine how furious she must be inside.
"Mr. Lu, what do we do next?"
Upon reaching the restroom, Qiu Tianrui immediately hesitated. It was the women’s restroom, and if he and Lu Tianxing rushed in, they might be gossiped about.
"Let’s go check it out first."
Lu Tianxing glanced at Qiu Tianrui and walked forward.
A few steps to the restroom entrance, after glancing inside, he saw Qiu Yingrong standing there, face ashen, with tightly clenched fists, her figure trembled slightly, clearly repressing her inner anger with all her might. Opposite her, a woman acted like a shrew, arms akimbo, endlessly cursing.
"Shut up."
Listening to the increasingly unpleasant voice of the woman, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but speak, his voice rather deep, tinged with anger.
"Who are you?"
The woman instinctively turned her head, asking. Seeing Lu Tianxing holding Lingling, her face instantly showed a mocking expression, "I was wondering who came! So the lover has come, what, don’t think I fear you just because you’re many, I tell you, if you don’t give me an explanation today, be careful that you won’t be able to bear the consequences..."
"You should be grateful you’re a woman, otherwise, do you believe I could slap you to death?"
Lu Tianxing squinted his eyes and glanced at the woman.
Under Lu Tianxing’s gaze, the woman couldn’t help but shiver, an unprecedented chill surged in her heart, instinctively retreating a few steps, with an unspeakable look of fear on her face.
Lu Tianxing glanced once at the woman, then directed his gaze to Qiu Yingrong, speaking indifferently, "Miss Qiu, let’s go! Getting angry at such people isn’t worth it."
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Qiu Yingrong took a deep breath, slightly nodded, and then walked toward Lu Tianxing.
As Qiu Yingrong turned to leave, the woman immediately reached out, grabbing Qiu Yingrong’s arm and shouted loudly, "What’s wrong, you want to run? Dirty my clothes, and you want to run?"
Qiu Yingrong’s eyebrows furrowed immediately, her anger resurfaced, intending to speak.
But before Qiu Yingrong could speak, a voice filled with anger sounded by her ear, "Let go, or I won’t mind crippling your hand, believe me?"
As he spoke, Lu Tianxing’s figure appeared beside Qiu Yingrong, his gaze fixed on the woman.
Seeing Lu Tianxing’s calm eyes, the woman’s face couldn’t help but show a frightened expression, her body uncontrollably shivering, instinctively releasing her hand.
"What you really want is compensation, right? Tell me, how much is your outfit, name a price, I’ll give it to you." Lu Tianxing said coldly.
