“It’s getting late, Grandma. How about having the driver pick you up to go home and get some rest? Sleeping too late is not good.”
“Alright, I’ll give Old Zhang a call.”

After the call, the Old Lady said to Qiao Xu, “It’s hard to find a taxi at this hour. You’re a beautiful girl in a dress, I wouldn’t feel comfortable letting you go out alone this late at night. When Old Zhang arrives, let him give you a lift on his way back.”
Qiao Xu thought for a moment and figured that the Lu and Qiao families lived on the same route anyway, so there was no point in refusing. Moreover, she didn’t feel comfortable leaving the Old Lady alone waiting for the driver either.
Soon, a black Maybach stopped outside the Cafe’s parking lot.
Seeing the person coming down from the Maybach, Qiao Xu, who was supporting the Old Lady, instantly froze in her tracks, her expression swiftly turning ugly.
Lu Moqing hadn’t expected to see the Old Lady and Qiao Xu together at this hour. Previously, the Old Lady had tried to create opportunities for him and Qiao Xu by doing similar things.
So, when he saw Qiao Xu with her, his first thought was that they had teamed up to deceive him again.
At that moment, there was a trace of happiness in his heart until he saw the coldness on Qiao Xu’s face the moment she saw him, he then realized that the Old Lady must have acted on her own accord.
Qiao Xu had no idea he would come, and the way she looked at him was so cold that it made him feel stifled.
Walking up to them, Lu Moqing glanced at the cold and silent Qiao Xu before turning to the Old Lady and saying, “Grandma, Old Zhang couldn’t make it due to some issue at home, and I happened to be free, so I came over.”
As if deliberately explaining himself, just when he wanted to say something to Qiao Xu, she had already let go of the Old Lady’s hand and said, “Grandma, I’ll go first.”
Without even glancing at Lu Moqing, she began walking towards the roadside.
Her footsteps were accompanied by sharp high-heeled shoes, wearing nothing but a thin evening dress in the early autumn night, she looked cold, but she felt nothing at all.
Seeing Qiao Xu walking away, Lu Moqing didn’t care about the Old Lady, calling out, “Qiao Xu!”
Qiao Xu stopped and looked back at him, “What’s the matter, President Lu?”
Lu Moqing quickly approached her, removing his suit jacket and placing it over her, saying, “How do you plan on going back dressed like this?”
Qiao Xu looked at him with a silent expression, like a stranger. As soon as his jacket touched her shoulders, she took it off and said, “No need for President Lu to bother.”
Returning the jacket to Lu Moqing, she turned around and continued walking towards the roadside.
After only two steps, her wrist was grabbed by Lu Moqing. Qiao Xu looked back at him, then at her restrained wrist, her gaze still cold.
“Is President Lu planning on getting handsy?”, she said.
Seeing her nonchalant appearance and thinking about her flaunting herself while dressed like this, an inexplicable rage flared up in Lu Moqing’s heart.
Using force on her wrist, he pulled Qiao Xu into his embrace, meeting her cold eyes filled with simmering anger, he smirked, “You’re still my wife, is it a crime for me to get handsy with you?”
Qiao Xu didn’t want to argue with Lu Moqing about their impending divorce, she tried to break free several times but couldn’t escape his grasp.
She looked coldly at Lu Moqing and said indifferently, “Lu Moqing, after all, we were once husband and wife, let’s not make our issues any uglier than necessary.”
