Su Bei was surprised. “Such a thing happened?”

“If the matter hadn’t blown up, I wouldn’t have come to find you,” Han Qingwan said. “Heting’s actions have already caused a huge conflict. If I don’t interfere, I’m afraid something will happen.”

Su Bei said, “I believe he has his own reasons for doing all this. Even if we can’t figure it out at the moment, there’s no need to doubt him.”

Han Qingwan said, “It’s a good thing that you believe him. But aren’t you worried at all? Don’t you want to know what Tian Xin said?”

“If he wanted to tell me, he would have told me himself. He didn’t tell me, so he didn’t think it was necessary.” Su Bei smiled.

Han Qingwan could tell that Su Bei didn’t intend to meddle in this matter, nor would she help ask Lu Heting about it.

Han Qingwan sighed. This might be the main reason why she and Su Bei were unable to be as close as mother and daughter.

“If something really happens, don’t regret it.” With that, Han Qingwan took her bag and left.

Su Bei thought for a moment and said, “I won’t regret it.”

It was because Lu Heting would never do anything that would make her regret it. In this world, she trusted this man the most. He had said that he would protect her and the two munchkins for the rest of his life, so he would definitely not let anything bad happen.

He promised.

And she believed him.

There was no doubt.

After returning home, Su Bei saw that Lu Heting’s expression was normal. It was the kind of normal expression that was not fake.

She reached out her arms and hugged him gently. “Are you tired?” she asked simply.

“No.” Lu Heting buried his head in her shoulder.

Even so, Su Bei still massaged his shoulders.

Lu Heting’s dry and warm palm covered the back of her hand. “You’re tired too. There’s no need.”

“I’ve only been to one event in the last few days, that’s all,” Su Bei said with a smile. “I even had Aunt Chen pick up some groceries for me. I’ll cook something nice for you later. Close your eyes.”

Lu Heting closed his eyes obediently, but the smile on his lips remained.

As the matter between Lu Heting and Lu Bei had been exposed on the internet, when Su Bei was free to go out and play, she would go out with Lu Heting while dressed in a male outfit. It was great to be open about things. Even if she was photographed, there was no need to explain further.

In that case, no one would ever think of her.

It seemed that being exposed wasn’t entirely a bad thing.

Moreover, the paparazzi and reporters were sometimes quite strange. When the truth was exposed, their desire to capture them on camera was not as strong. Perhaps the next time their strong desire to follow them would be ignited was when Lu Heting broke up with Lu Bei or when Lu Heting was with someone else.

Su Bei was wearing men’s clothes and a baseball cap. After buying a bottle of Coke, she happily got into Lu Heting’s car.

“I’m thirsty too,” Lu Heting said.

Su Bei unscrewed the cap and gave it to him.

Lu Heting drank half of it in one go. Su Bei watched as the Coke entered his mouth. His Adam’s apple bobbed, and his perfect Adam’s apple gulped the Coke bit by bit.

Boo-hoo, she was only allowed to buy one bottle each time. After buying it, he said that he was thirsty. Su Bei knew that he didn’t want her to drink too much, but she was still worried that he was really thirsty and couldn’t bear to not let him drink it.

He was really too much!
