Chapter 722: The Young Lady of The Lu Family

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fu Qingli and the boy were still making eye contact as they engaged in a staring contest. Tension rose to an all-time high.

Shen Xi watched the scene unfold. The facts were right in front of them. Even if someone were to tell her that Fu Qingli and the boy were not father and son, she would find it hard to believe as they were a spitting image of each other!

Seeing that those in the car were unresponsive to the knocking, the men in black picked up weapons to smash the car while yelling abuse with their fingers against the window.

Shen Xi carried the boy and went ahead to shove him into Fu Qingli’s embrace. She then opened the door and got out of the car.

Furrowing his brows, the boy pushed Fu Qingli away with his eyes – even though dark and bright – deadpan and ruthless like a wolf. He pulled away from Fu Qingli’s arms.

He had yet to say a word the whole time, but his attitude said it all. The boy rejected Fu Qingli’s existence.

In the backseat, Ruan Sisi was anxious to watch Shen Xi get down the car to face these people alone. However, since she had a kid in her arms to protect, she tured to seek help from Fu Qingli.

Fu Qingli had hopped out of the car.

Shen Xi looked at the men in black. “Who are you people?”

Lust flashed by his eyes as the heavy-jowl leader sized her up. “You better hand them over and stay out of our business.”

Shen Xi scoffed coldly. “What if I don’t?”

The heavy-jowl leader snorted. “Consider yourself down on your luck.”

His gang then charged toward Shen Xi at the wave of his hand.

Shen Xi had already braced herself for a fight, but before she could pull a punch, Fu Qingli jumped out of nowhere to come in between the fight.

It did not take long for the dozen-odd bodyguards to prostrate on the floor in a scatter. The men whined and groaned in pain.

Fu Qingli looked down on the leader with cold and murderous eyes. With his anger reaching boiling point, his voice sent chills down their spine. “Who are these children? Why are you after them?”

He could be certain that the children were his!

Did the woman from five years ago get pregnant? Did she give birth to the kids herself? She was a lunatic!

“They-they’re that b*… our young lady’s children.” The man changed the cuss word for something less offensive.

This man was identical to the little b*stard. Judging by the man’s terrifying and commanding presence, he was no ordinary person.

The old madam at home said that the b*tch gave birth to two little b*stards with no information on the biological father. Who was this man then?

The old madam ordered them to watch over these little sh*ts, but they lost these gremlins. There was no doubt that the old madam would skin them alive during their return.

Fu Qingli darted at him with a chilling stare.

The man broke out in cold sweat. “We’re the bodyguards of the Lu family. Those kids belong to our young lady of the house, Lu Li. The old madam asked us to watch them, but the children refused to listen and ran off, so we chased them here. They’re our young lady’s kids. We won’t harm them.”

Since traffic was picking up ahead, the cars behind were honking non-stop. Drivers craned their heads out of their cars and urged them to hurry up.

With a frown, Fu Qingli turned his attention away from the bodyguards and onto Shen Xi. “Are you getting in the car or taking the subway?”

Shen Xi replied, “I’m taking the subway. You and Sisi should leave together with the kids.”

Fu Qingli nodded as a wave of emotions hit him. Although two younglings in the car took up his thoughts, Fu Qingli remained calm and level-headed as usual. He urged her, “Be safe. Call me when you get there.”

“Okay.” As he was ready to take off, Shen Xi blurted, “Um… Be gentle with the kids.”

That stank look on his would scare the kids.

Stopping in his tracks, Fu Qingli responded favorably and got into the car.

Shen Xi gave the car another look before making her way to the subway station. She asked in the international class group chat if anyone knew about the Lu family.

She remembered every word said by the head bodyguard. The kids were Lu Li’s, the young lady of the Lu family’s children. However, the bodyguards did not look like they were protecting the children. It was more like they were menacingly hunting them down.

Chu Ying was the first to reply. (Chu Ying: The Lu family? I know! I know! My family does business with them. They’re an insignificant family, mainly in the property and jewelry trade, but I have to say, that family has no integrity.”

[Shen Xi: Do you know the young lady of the Lu family, Lu Li?)

[Chu Ying: The young lady of the Lu family? I only know that there’s only one young lady but her name’s Lu Rou, I think. I’l ask around for you.]

Lin Ge chimed in. [Lin Ge: I think I had heard about Lu Li before. After her dad died, she was left in a rural village to survive. Why do you want to know?]

Chu Ying soon returned with an answer. [Chu Ying: Lu Li’s dad died when she was five. She never came back ever since her grandmother abandoned her in a village. My friend hasn’t caught wind of her return.]

A family of no account like the Lu family was not worth their time if Xixi had not brought them up.

[Shen Xi: Got it.]

Lu Li was a poor soul who was unfavored by her family and left to her own devices in the village.

Judging by the look on Fu Qingli’s face, the children’s appearance clearly caught him unaware.

This meant that it was possibly a case of pregnancy after a one-night stand. Lu Li must be pregnant after a one-time thing with Fu Qingli. She gave birth to the children without the intention of letting the father know.

Otherwise, she would not raise the kids without looking for the father all this time.

While on the way, Shen Xi wondered what kind of woman Lu Li was. She only managed to gather her thoughts once she reached Yu Qiubai’s residence.

Yu Qiubai’s mother had passed out after he gave her a dose of sedative.

Shen Xi checked her pulse for a thorough examination. There did not seem to be much of a problem other than violent mood swings. Something seemed to strike a nerve in her. Shen Xi performed acupuncture and changed the medication accordingly. “Tl come by tomorrow. Keep an eye on your mother.

Call me if she doesn’t get better.”

She had planned to stay the night if things were not looking good.

Nevertheless, the matter concerning Fu Qingli and the two children got Shen Xi itching with curiosity. She had to retum to get to the bottom of the situation.

Shen Xi heard from Qingye that Fu Qingli kept away from women. The latter never had a girlfriend before, nor was there anything remotely female found around him. Out of the blue, Fu Qingli found himself with grown children. It was jaw-dropping.

“Thank you.” Yu Qiubai walked her to the door, only to find she had not driven here. “Tl drive you home.”

Shen Xi extended her palm out. “Give me your car keys. I’ll drive myself back. You should stay to keep your mother company. She needs you..”
