Madam Lu glanced at Lu Shiyan coldly. “You can’t see the good woman in front of you, but you want to marry a lousy woman instead. Lu Shiyan, after what happened tonight, your father and I will never allow you to marry Qin Youyou! Also, it’s getting late. Send Miaomiao and Xiaoshu back first.”

Madam Lu had a sense of propriety. If she insisted on keeping Qin Miaomiao here, she would only make Qin Miaomiao unhappy.

Lu Shiyan frowned for a moment before letting go. After the Lu couple left, Qin Miaomiao said in a cold voice, “There’s no need for you to send me off. Sign the annulment. We won’t have anything to do with each other in the future. Xiaoshu, let’s go to the hall.” After saying that, Qin Miaomiao pulled Qin Xiaoshu and prepared to go to the private room to sign the annulment. However, just as she raised her foot, her left heel clicked.

Qin Miaomiao’s expression changed slightly. Could it be that she had kicked the drunkard too hard previously and broke her heel? Caught off guard, her body fell forward. Before Qin Miaomiao could stabilize herself, Lu Shiyan came over and grabbed her in time. Qin Miaomiao’s body fell into Lu Shiyan’s arms, and the two of them were pressed tightly together. The familiar fragrance made Lu Shiyan feel flustered again. Could there be such a coincidence in this world? The smell on her body was the same as the scent he smelled that night, including…

Lu Shiyan glanced at Qin Xiaoshu. This child’s appearance was similar to his… Before Lu Shiyan could think further, Qin Miaomiao pushed him away and stared at him for a while before looking away. “Xiaoshu, let’s go.”

Lu Shiyan asked sharply, “Miss Qin, why did your heel break? What happened just now?”

“This has nothing to do with Mr. Lu.” Qin Miaomiao frowned. Just as she was about to bend down and walk out barefooted, Lu Shiyan leaned over again. Without giving Qin Miaomiao any time to react, he carried her out.

After freezing for a moment, Qin Miaomiao punched Lu Shiyan’s shoulder. “Put me down! I can walk by myself. Put me down!” Qin Miaomiao’s tone was very reproachful. Her voice… sounded like the one from that night five years ago.

Lu Shiyan closed his eyes. He suspected that he was hallucinating. He found Qin Youyou with the token, but now, he was having delusions about Qin Miaomiao, the little girl the Lu family needed to repay kindness to.

“Your heel is already red. Can’t you feel any pain?” Lu Shiyan asked.

Qin Miaomiao was speechless.

Qin Xiaoshu followed behind the two of them and observed this scene carefully. His mommy was usually very rational in front of him, but now that she was in his father’s arms, she looked so cute and lovable. As he secretly held the strand of hair, he thought that if Lu Shiyan was really his biological father, he would be very happy! As long as the misunderstanding between his parents was resolved, the family of three could live together happily!

When they reached the hotel lobby, Lu Shiyan placed Qin Miaomiao on the sofa. As soon as she touched the sofa, Qin Miaomiao moved as far away as she could from Lu Shiyan.

Her resistance made Lu Shiyan misunderstand. Was Qin Miaomiao so resistant to men… because she had been hurt before? Was it because of the man overseas who made her pregnant out of wedlock? At the thought of this, a cold look flashed across Lu Shiyan’s eyes. “I’ll get someone to bring a pair of comfortable shoes over. I’ll send you and the child home later.”

Qin Miaomiao replied, “No need, but thank you for your kind intentions, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Shiyan said, “Qin Miaomiao, be obedient, okay?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Miaomiao was stunned. Did she mishear him? Meeting Lu Shiyan’s helpless gaze, Qin Miaomiao said coldly, “Mr. Lu, the person you should be concerned about isn’t me.”

“Back then, the Lu and Qin families had a good relationship. Your mother even wanted to acknowledge me as her godson. No matter what, whether the engagement is annulled or not, I’ll take care of you like a younger sister. Whether you treat it as repaying the kindness or making up for it, I have to take care of you for the rest of my life,” Lu Shiyan said.

“Didn’t I also say that I don’t need your family to repay the kindness or take care of me?” Qin Miaomiao’s expression turned cold.

As he spoke, Lu Shiyan had already taken the ointment and cotton batons from the hotel staff. He squatted down and held Qin Miaomiao’s ankle to personally apply it for her. The unexpected pain made Qin Miaomiao gasp. Qin Xiaoshu went forward and held her hand. “Sir, my mommy is very sensitive to pain. Can you be gentler?”
