With only this precious son, Luo Qiao’s love for Luo Yingbai needed no explanation. Luo Yingbai had been away for nearly two semesters, and though he had run away, Luo Qiao clearly knew where the kid was wandering. Fortunately, he was studying, which was better than overthinking at home.
He was busy treating his wife and investigating the culprit, so he let Luo Yingbai stay outside until Luo Yingbai called him after meeting Xia Xianning. Luo Qiao immediately started arranging his trip, returning home at the fastest speed with his wife.
Luo Yingbai heard the braking sound and broke out in a sweat. He could hear his heart pounding like a drum.
He wanted to rush over and hug his parents but was oddly shy near home. His hand pressed against the car door trembled, unable to push it open. To others, he was a child returning home after studying away for less than a year, but only he knew what this reunion truly represented.
Xia Xianning paused, neither moving nor urging, just sitting with him.
They didn’t move, but Luo Qiao recognized Xia Xianning’s car.
Without complex emotions, he pushed open his car door and roared before even getting out: “Luo Yingbai!”
Luo Yingbai trembled and decisively pushed the car door open, quickly ran to Luo Qiao and stood at attention, chest out: “Respectfully welcoming Father and Mother!”
Xia Xianning parked the car and was about to walk over when he watched Luo Qiao kick Luo Yingbai away.
Luo Qiao cursed: “What nonsense, go move the boxes. I’ll deal with you when we get home!”
He then shouted at the driver about to help: “Old Zhou, you can go. Let him move everything!”
Luo Yingbai rubbed his nose, not daring to speak, running to the trunk to carry luggage. Xia Xianning glanced at him and then turned to say: “Teacher, you’re back.”
“Mm, Xianning, come in,” Luo Qiao was much gentler with his disciple than with his son. He carried the unconscious Jiang Yujia from the car to a special wheelchair, casually handing Xia Xianning a piece of chocolate.
The chocolate wasn’t sealed, wrapped in a patterned foil. Xia Xianning knew the flight Luo Qiao took was a famous gourmet flight, with world-renowned in-flight meals, especially handmade desserts.
Luo Qiao surely found it rare and brought a piece for Xia Xianning.
