Chapter 1813: Chapter 1806: Qiu Tianrui’s Suspicion

Although the three women, Bai Zhiqing, were full of astonishment, no one dared to step forward and chat because Qiu Tianrui stood nearby talking to Jiang Tianbao. Moreover, the people invited to this evening’s ball were not ordinary folk. They clearly knew the identities of Jiang Tianbao and Qiu Tianrui, and they saw Jiang Tianbao and Qiu Tianrui’s respectful attitude toward Bai Zhiqing and Lin Qianru after entering. For Jiang Tianbao and Qiu Tianrui to be so deferential, Bai Zhiqing and Lin Qianru’s identities were naturally extraordinary.

While everyone loves beautiful women, it doesn’t mean they are willing to risk their lives for them. The saying ”Death under the peony flower makes a romantic ghost” is nothing but idle talk.

Some women who accompanied male partners quickly turned their gazes away after glancing at the three women, Bai Zhiqing. It wasn’t that they didn’t like looking at them, but rather, they were afraid of feeling inadequate.

Whether it was Bai Zhiqing, Lin Qianru, or Qiu Yingrong, they were all top-notch beauties, exuding remarkable charisma. Some were coldly elegant, some as gentle as water, some radiating a dominant aura; and more importantly, with perfect curves and angelic faces paired with devilish figures, they had qualities any woman would dream of. Yet now, these advantages were all concentrated in one person, inciting envy and jealousy.

Upon entering from outside, Lu Tianxing immediately noticed Bai Zhiqing and the three women seated on the sofa. Though he had seen many charming appearances of the three, at this moment, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but be slightly dazed by their sight.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Tianxing’s face showed a faint smile, as he made his way briskly toward the three women, Bai Zhiqing.

Lingling was nibbling on a large red apple when she suddenly seemed to sense something. She looked up abruptly and, upon seeing Lu Tianxing approaching, happily shouted, ”Daddy, I’m here, I’m here.”

As she spoke, Lingling continuously waved her arm at Lu Tianxing as if afraid he wouldn’t see her.

Upon hearing Lingling’s voice, people gathered in small groups around the hall couldn’t help displaying puzzled expressions, unaware and unclear about what had just transpired on the deck. Thus, upon hearing Lingling’s address to Lu Tianxing, each person had a look of confusion on their face. How come they were unaware that Qiu Yingrong had remarried?

Lu Tianxing’s face instantly lit up with a brilliant smile upon hearing Lingling call him daddy. Like Lingling’s attitude toward him, he didn’t know why, but despite the brief duration spent with Lingling, he found himself already fond of this quirky little girl. He gladly accepted Lingling’s choice of address for him.

Noticing Lingling constantly waving her arms toward him, as if afraid he’d miss her, Lu Tianxing approached with a radiant smile and lifted Lingling up. Listening to Lingling’s voice, reminiscent of tinkling bells, Lu Tianxing began to laugh.

At this time, Bai Zhiqing and the three women stopped their conversation, watching Lu Tianxing and Lingling frolic together, their faces revealing smiles they couldn’t suppress.

Only Qiu Yingrong, although she sported a faint smile on her face, had a complex expression deeply in her eyes. Simultaneously, her mind couldn’t help but recall the lingering memories with Lu Tianxing at Jingxin Tea House.

Regarding those memories, Qiu Yingrong tried hard to refrain from thinking about them. Yet, whenever night fell silent, her mind involuntarily conjured up the scene of Lu Tianxing’s fierce advances, and the unprecedented fluttering in her heart made her yearn to be conquered again, wanting to experience Lu Tianxing’s stormy advances once more. She couldn’t forget the sense of floating on clouds.

Qiu Yingrong was at a loss as to what happened with herself. Why, after so many years, after an unexpected close encounter with Lu Tianxing, did she become so uncontrollable?

Perhaps Bai Zhiqing didn’t notice the complex expression in Qiu Yingrong’s eyes, but Lu Tianxing certainly did. Every time he met Qiu Yingrong, he was unsure of how to face her. Yet sometimes, he had no choice but to confront it.

”Good evening, Miss Qiu.” Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions, and greeted Qiu Yingrong.

”Good evening, Mr. Lu. Lingling is a bit mischievous, so I hope you can be understanding.” Qiu Yingrong was slightly surprised that Lu Tianxing took the initiative to greet her, and her body trembled slightly before revealing a smile. However, the smile carried a complexity that few could perceive.

Qiu Yingrong was unsure how to face Lu Tianxing, whether she should be grateful or harbor resentment toward him. She didn’t know how to choose.

”Miss Qiu, you jest. Lingling is so lively and cute; I’m more than happy to like her!” Lu Tianxing responded with a smile.

As Lu Tianxing and Qiu Yingrong conversed, the surrounding gazes all focused on Lu Tianxing, each speculating about his identity. Who exactly was Lu Tianxing that Qiu Yingrong’s daughter called him father, and seemingly Qiu Yingrong didn’t object? Could it be that Lu Tianxing was Qiu Yingrong’s new husband?

Meanwhile, Qiu Tianrui, although continuously talking with Jiang Tianbao not far away, had his eyes constantly watching over Bai Zhiqing to prevent anyone ignorant from harassing them. Upon Lu Tianxing’s arrival, he clearly noticed the fleeting complex look on Qiu Yingrong’s face, and a sense of doubt arose in his heart.

What exactly is going on? Why did his sister’s eyes reveal such complex emotions? Could it be that his sister has fallen in love with Lu Tianxing?

As this thought flashed through his mind, Qiu Tianrui became increasingly certain.

He was Qiu Yingrong’s younger brother and knew his sister’s character too well. Since her husband passed away in an accident, he had never seen his sister get too close to any man, not even Zhang Zefeng, who had pursued her for four years. Qiu Yingrong’s attitude toward him was only slightly better than toward a stranger. However, her attitude toward Lu Tianxing was entirely different. That complex look also carried a barely perceptible hint of grievance, an emotion that only appears when facing a lover, not a stranger.
