Yang Jingqiu looked her up and down and sat at the dining table. She said coldly, "you're finally willing to come back. "
Zhao Siqing lowered her head and ate the food in her bowl. She said slowly, "I'll move back here for a period of time. "
"As you wish, " Yang Jingqiu said coldly.
During the meal, the mother and daughter sat opposite each other, but they were exceptionally silent.
Zhao Siqing actually didn't have much of an appetite. After eating a little, she raised her head to look at the delicate-looking woman opposite her. After hesitating for a while, she said softly, "mom, how much do you know about the Lu family? "
Yang Jingqiu put down her bowl and chopsticks, looked up at her and said, "you know. "
"Yes, " Zhao Siqing said softly. She suddenly remembered that when she had just broken up with Lu Qian, Yang Jingqiu had mocked her intentionally.
However, at that time, she was already used to Yang Jingqiu's sarcastic remarks, so she did not think too much about it.
But she did not expect.. It turned out that it was huo Jingchen's scheme from the beginning.
Yang Jingqiu did not add insult to injury. She only said, "when I came back just now, I saw a car downstairs. "
Zhao Siqing was stunned for a few seconds and fell silent.
"Go upstairs and take a shower. Sleep early, " Yang Jingqiu glanced at her and said coldly.
After saying that, she stood up and put away the bowls and chopsticks. However, Zhao Siqing could not help but call out to her, "mom. "
Yang Jingqiu stopped and turned to look at her.
Zhao Siqing wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she did not speak.
She was used to relying on herself for everything. Even asking her mother for help seemed to have become particularly difficult.
However, Yang Jingqiu saw through her thoughts at a glance and said in a deep voice, "you want me to help Lu Qian. "
Zhao Siqing lowered her eyes and said softly, "I don't know how to help him. I just can't accept that the reason why the Lu family has become like this is because of me. "
Yang Jingqiu's gaze fell on her neck. After seeing the clear Hickeys, she frowned.
When she took a closer look, she found that Zhao Siqing's lips were a little swollen.
Yang Jingqiu didn't say anything about this. She only said, "I will find someone to arrange a job for him tomorrow. "
After saying that, without waiting for Zhao Siqing to say anything, Yang Jingqiu had already entered the kitchen.
Zhao Siqing looked at her back and sat downstairs for a while. Then, she turned around and went back to her bedroom.

On the other side, Huo Jingchen went to pick her up from work in the evening as usual.
He waited outside the door in silence. He didn't know if she was still angry or if she would still pay attention to him.
After waiting for more than an hour, he still didn't see Zhao Siqing.
It wasn't until Zhao Siqing's secretary, Xiao Mi, came out that Huo Jingchen stopped her. "where's Qingqing? "
Xiao Mi was stunned for a few seconds when she saw him. When she met his dark eyes, her heart tightened. "Dr. Zhao... Dr. Zhao hasn't come back since he left this morning. "
Huo Jingchen fell silent when he heard this. He turned around and got into the car and went straight back to Zhao Siqing's house.
It was dark when he opened the door. It was obvious that she hadn't come back at all.
Huo Jingchen sat in the house for a while and realized that the suitcase in the corner was gone. His eyes darkened.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Zhao Siqing called Zhao Siqing. As expected, she didn't pick up.
After a moment of silence, he asked Tang Qi to check her whereabouts. Then, he took a taxi to Yang Jingqiu's villa.
The car stopped on the road in front of the villa. Huo Jingchen was lost in thought as he looked at the room with the lights on.
She didn't want to see him, did she.
That was why she didn't even return home. She would rather hide at Yang Jingqiu's place.
Huo Jingchen lowered his eyes. When he thought of her words today, he couldn't control his emotions.
