After sending all the guests away, Zhu Wentao left with Zhou Ling, not wanting to say a word to Lin Qing.
Granny Zhu was sent back to the Zhus' residence halfway through the banquet because of her poor health. She had already managed to last well into the event.
During the ride back, Lin Qing remained silent, her face as dark as the bottom of a well.
Zhu Xiangxiang hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mom, I wanted to talk to Mr. Zhou..."
Lin Qing waved her hand dismissively: "Just let me have some peace."
Zhu Xiangxiang wore a worried expression on her face.
Upon arriving at the Zhus' residence, Lin Qing got out of the car first and quickly walked into the living room without waiting for the others.
"Ming Jing."
Ming Jing hesitated for a moment and looked back at her.
Zhu Xiangxiang walked up to her and asked softly, "Why did you help me?"
She looked up at Ming Jing, who was much taller than her. Even wearing high heels, Zhu Xiangxiang had to look up to her.
