CHAPTER 620: CHAPTER 618: WISHING TO CRUSH NING QIAN TO DEATH IMMEDIATELY

Lu Jinyang chuckled with amusement, like he was dealing with a little animal that had bristled up, yet she was still in denial...

-

By the time the family of four came downstairs, Xiao Qing no longer saw Xiao Anze and Yang Qiao around. Only after asking the housemaid did she find out that they had left half an hour ago.

This meant they hadn’t stayed for breakfast. After pondering for a moment, Xiao Qing asked Lu Jinyang, "How about we go out for breakfast too?"

"Sure."

So, Xiao Qing had someone tell the kitchen and they left.

As for Grandpa Xiao, there was no particular need to inform him. He only asked that they join him for a meal on family dinner days; aside from that, everything else was flexible.

Xiao Qing had Lu Jinyang take them to the mall.

The refrigerator at home was nearly empty, with only enough snacks and fruits for Da Bao and Xiao Bao to eat today. Taking advantage of the free time today, they decided to shop for a week’s worth of groceries.

Da Bao and Xiao Bao each grabbed a shopping basket and started choosing their favorite items, while Lu Jinyang, with his hands in his pockets, followed behind the two children.

Xiao Qing looked at the silhouettes of the one adult and two children, feeling happiness overflowing from her lips.

Her gaze lingered on the tall figure of the man, his broad shoulders and narrow waist, and the fitted shirt that outlined his sturdy physique. His demeanor was the finest she had seen, every move radiating elegance.

Having been together for nearly three months, Xiao Qing had yet to find any physical flaw in Lu Jinyang, especially his irresistibly tempting body...

Realizing what she was thinking, Xiao Qing blushed slightly, surprised that she could be so infatuated with a man’s beauty.

She diverted her gaze and walked towards the fresh produce section. Halfway there, she heard a very familiar voice speaking Mandarin next to the shelves.

Xiao Qing couldn’t help but stop and glance sideways, only to see Ning Qian and Tan Biyang!

At the moment, the two seemed to be having a dispute.

Without thinking, Xiao Qing pushed her shopping cart to a shelf behind them, and carefully peaked through several bags of snacks.

"Tan Biyang, if you help someone, you should help them all the way. I still haven’t found a job. If you stop helping me, I’ll expose all those things you did back then!"

Tan Biyang, upon hearing this, wished she could strangle Ning Qian on the spot, but couldn’t react immediately.

Five years ago, the scandal that Zhuang Shuqing, now known as Xiao Qing, exposed about her took so much effort and sleeping with many people to minimize its impact.

Additionally, the incident that occurred during her engagement party with Lu Jinyang also took so much pleading to keep under wraps.

Of course, she had more than these two scandals, but these were the ones that had the biggest impact on her and which she couldn’t allow to be exposed again. Otherwise, her hard-earned position would crumble if someone decided to leak them again, and she would never be able to recover.

Thinking of this, Tan Biyang masked the coldness in her eyes, trying to keep her voice steady and unfluctuating.

"How much more do you want?"

Ning Qian smiled triumphantly and stretched out five fingers toward her.

Tan Biyang frowned, "Five hundred dollars? I don’t have that much."

"No, five thousand dollars!"

Hiding behind the shelf, Xiao Qing watched Ning Qian threaten Tan Biyang with such an entitled attitude, and her mood instantly soared. Thinking of something, Xiao Qing took out her phone, switched it to silent mode, then opened the camera and started recording them.

Tan Biyang stared at Ning Qian as if she had seen a ghost, "Are you dreaming? Where would I get that much money?"
