Chapter 408 Favoritism



Qiao Min looked at Zhao Lanxi scrutinizingly, "If what you said is true, then why did you come to me? What do you want to help me with?"

When Qiao Min was young, she was able to get Lu Yuanming to marry her, so she was certainly not a fool.

"Of course, it's to help you make money."

Seeing Qiao Min's expression, Zhao Lanxi knew that she had fallen for him and was beginning to believe in him.

"If you still don't believe me, I can take you to see my master right now. Also, I have a few stocks that are doing well, and I can transfer them to you."

Qiao Min's eyes lit up when she heard the word "stocks".

Although she had already lost a lot of money in the stock market, Qiao Min felt that it was just bad luck, and that she would definitely be able to make money if given a few more chances.

but……

Qiao Min still didn't fully trust Zhao Lanxi. "I don't even know you. The moment we meet, you want to transfer your profitable stocks to me. What exactly is your purpose?"

There's no such thing as a free lunch. This person is helping me like this, they must have something to gain.

Zhao Lanxi smiled gently upon hearing this, "Sister, you are so smart. I like dealing with smart people. I certainly didn't help you for nothing."

I'm helping you this way because I also want you to help me.

Because I have a grudge against Jiang Yue, I want you to join forces with me to deal with Jiang Yue..."

...

Achoo!

As soon as she got home, Jiang Yue sneezed without warning.

Lu Jingnian looked at her sharply, his face full of worry, "Are you cold?"

"No, my nose just suddenly feels a little itchy."

Jiang Yue looked at Lu Jingnian's tense expression and replied with a wry smile.

She just sneezed, and this man got so nervous.

Pushing Lu Jingnian back to the room, Jiang Yue began packing her things.

The visas have all been processed, and they will be leaving in two days. During this time, Jiang Yue has already handed over all the company's affairs.

I plan to tidy up my things at home for the next couple of days.

Although Song Gang said that everything was already prepared overseas and there was no need to prepare anything else, Jiang Yue still brought everything she could think of that might be useful.

After packing all morning, Jiang Yue had filled all her suitcases.

Ping An ran in from outside and plopped down on the suitcase. "Mom, Grandma said you and Dad are going abroad. Can you take Ping An with you?"

Ping An also wants to travel abroad.

Ping An's mind is now filled with nothing but playing. I don't know who the little girl takes after; she's always teasing cats and dogs and is so mischievous it's a headache.

The dog that Lu's father keeps at home is so scared that Ping An keeps playing with it that he's now afraid to go home.

Jiang Yue smiled and pinched her nose. "Mom really wants to take Ping An with her, but Mom has to pull the suitcase and take care of Dad, so she can't take care of Ping An!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ping'an immediately lay down on the suitcase. "It's okay, Mom will put Ping'an in this suitcase and just pull Ping'an along!"

"Hahaha!"

Jiang Yue was amused by the little girl.

“There’s no air in the box. Ping’an won’t be able to breathe if she goes in.” As she spoke, she picked up her daughter and put her in Lu Jingnian’s arms. “Mom is accompanying Dad abroad to get treatment for his leg. I really can’t take care of Ping’an. Ping’an, please stay at home with Grandpa and Grandma, okay?”

"Once Daddy's leg is healed, Mommy and Daddy will take Ping An and his brother abroad for a trip, okay?"

Ping An looked up at Lu Jingnian and asked, "Dad, now that your leg is better, can you stand up and carry me out to play?"

Lu Jingnian looked at his daughter in his arms and nodded gently with a smile, "Yes, once Daddy's leg is healed, I can stand up and take Ping An to many places she wants to go."

"Then Daddy, you need to get your leg healed quickly. Ping An will be good."

Ping An is still young and doesn't know what's wrong with her father's legs or why he always sits in a wheelchair. But she really hopes that her father can be like other fathers, able to stand up and run with her, play with her, and carry her around to play.

"Dad, when are you and Mom coming back?" Ping An asked. "If you don't come back for a long time, Ping An and my brother will miss you."

"That's my brother!"

Jiang Yue reminded her.

"younger brother!"

Ping An just wants to be the older sister.

"Yes, little brother!"

Lu Jingnian stood firmly on his daughter's side without any reservations, saying, "Our Ping An is the older sister."

Jiang Yue: "..."

This man is truly something else; his doting on his daughter is outrageous.

Lu Jingnian smiled indifferently at Jiang Yue's disapproving gaze, "Our Ping An is very smart, she understands these things."

His daughter just wanted to get the upper hand verbally; it wasn't a big deal.

Jiang Yue rolled her eyes speechlessly, not wanting to say anything more to the father and daughter.

Although Ping An is a bit mischievous, she is very perceptive. She realized that her mother was not satisfied with her father's answer, so she immediately got out of Lu Jingnian's arms and ran outside.

"Mom and Dad, I'll go and tell my little brother to stay home and wait for you to come back."

Watching Ping An run like a gust of wind, Jiang Yue sighed helplessly.

"If only I could return with half the liveliness of peace."

I don't know if it's because their personalities complement each other or what.

Ping An is usually too lively; sometimes it's like he has ADHD.

Gui Lai was unusually quiet, spending his time either reading or playing chess with Grandpa Chen. He didn't live like a child at all, but rather like a little old man.

Jiang Yue felt a little worried when she thought of her son.

“Gui Lai’s personality is very similar to mine when I was a child.” Lu Jingnian stood up from his wheelchair, walked to Jiang Yue’s side, hugged her from behind, and wrapped his arms around her waist. “You don’t need to worry. I think Gui Lai is just fine as he is. He’s mature beyond his years, has his own opinions, and knows how to take care of his younger sister. That’s good.”

"Lu Jingnian, wasn't your last sentence the key point?"

Jiang Yue pulled his hand away, turned around and looked at him unhappily, "You're just biased. You dote on Ping An so much, but you're very serious about Gui Lai."

Although Gui Lai isn't as prone to crying and tantrums as Ping An, no matter how mature and steady he is beyond his years, he's still just a child the same age as Ping An.

"Aren't you worried that if you stay away for too long, people will think you're favoring your sister when you come back, and that you'll feel sad?"

Normally, Lu Jingnian dotes on Ping An, so Jiang Yue pays more attention to Gui Lai, fearing that her son might feel unbalanced.

"Won't!"

Lu Jingnian and Jiang Yue had completely different ideas.

“Gui Lai is different from other children. Don’t look at Gui Lai with the same eyes you would look at an ordinary child. His mental resilience is not as weak as you think.”

“Ping’an is a girl, and girls should be pampered. I don’t think my approach is wrong.”

Jiang Yue rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on, because of the differing opinions.

"No matter what, I don't think you should be so serious about returning."
