Chapter 1620: Chapter 1620: You Really Are Careless

Lu Yichen had been busy for a whole week before he finally got some time to rest. Luo Qiao felt a bit sorry for him. Although she had been bringing him food every day, he was still burning the midnight oil every night.

Luo Qiao knew he was resting today, so she also took the day off.

After breakfast, she busied herself with cooking, making lamb bone soup, his favorite sauerkraut fish, fried meatballs, and a clay pot dish with cured meat. She also prepared dry-fried green beans, crispy tofu, and finally a mixed cold dish, making sure everything was just right.

When the children came back from school, Lu Yichen had just woken up, led by the aroma of the food.

He spent a moment affectionately with the kids, just as the dishes were being set on the table.

Lu Yichen took a large sip of the lamb soup and exclaimed, "In the middle of winter, this really hits the spot."

Rong Daniang laughed and said, "If you like it, we can make it often. But the taste of my cooking is truly not as good as what Qiaoqiao makes."

Xiao Ye chuckled, "Grandma Rong’s food is also delicious."

Rong Daniang looked at Xiao Ye, "Oh my, Xiao Ye, your little mouth sure knows how to flatter people."

Xiao Ye looked up, "I’m not flattering; it really is delicious."

Rong Daniang was all smiles, "Good, good, good, as long as you enjoy it."

Luo Qiao served lamb soup to everyone at the table, "Have a bit of lamb soup first to ward off the cold, then eat the dishes."

Finally, she served herself a bowl, took a small sip, and then said, "Brother Chen, in the afternoon, you continue resting at home. I’m going to check on Xiao Fengfeng."

"I’ll go with you."

"No way, you haven’t had a good rest in a week. Since you can rest today, take the time to catch up on sleep."

"It’s fine. I’ve already slept all morning. I’ll go with you for a walk, and we can rest early in the evening."

Luo Qiao didn’t hide the situation with Xiao Fengfeng from the family. Because of Lu Yichen’s profession, it’s inevitable that he would make enemies. So, she used this incident to give the kids a good lesson.

After hearing about Xiao Fengfeng, the kids were silent for a moment. Yueyue spoke up, "Wasn’t Xiao Fengfeng scared?"

As Luo Qiao tidied the dishes, she replied, "Your aunt said there wasn’t a big issue, but the day before yesterday he woke up crying from a dream, so he might have been a little frightened."

Xiao Rui, with a stern face, said, "Those people are truly obnoxious; they should be severely punished."

Yanyan nodded in agreement, "Xiao Rui is right, they are really selfish and inhumane."

Seeing the children’s righteous indignation, Luo Qiao said, "That’s why, no matter when, you shouldn’t easily trust any strangers. Especially given your father’s line of work, it’s easy to make enemies, so you must stay alert."

The kids all promised earnestly.

After helping Rong Daniang clean up, just as it was time for the kids to go to school, Luo Qiao insisted that Lu Yichen not accompany them. After he went to rest in the bedroom, she finally left with the children, dropping them off on the way to school.

She bought a set of toy cars at the nearest department store, and then picked a few cream cakes from a cake shop before heading to Stone’s house.

When she arrived with the items, she saw a lot of people gathered at the door, so she asked, "What are you all looking at?"

The person in front didn’t even turn around, "Someone’s here to plead again. How do they have the nerve to come and beg?"

Luo Qiao said, "Excuse me, please let me through."

She finally squeezed her way in, lucky that she had lifted the cake up to avoid squashing it.

Tou Yuqi sighed with relief when he saw Luo Qiao come in, "Sis, you’re here?"

Luo Qiao asked knowingly, "What are these people doing here?"

Guan Yuqi explained their purpose, and Luo Qiao’s face turned cold, "Even if you trouble her, it’s useless. Wrongdoings must be paid for, whether he truly didn’t know or pretended not to, he was involved in it after all.

Without his helpful assistance, Sun Yu wouldn’t have been able to bring the child into the factory so easily. If the child hadn’t been rescued in time, had you thought about what the consequences might have been?"

A petite woman said, "But my husband didn’t know Sun Yu would do something illegal. He was just being kind and gave her a lift because it was on the way."

Luo Qiao looked the woman up and down, "On the way, kind, hmm, you sure are carefree. How about you ask your husband in the detention center how he kindly gave her a ride?"
