After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him Chapter 62: Isn't Calling Anyone the Same?

Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Isn’t Calling Anyone the Sa?

Thankfully, she needed him too.

He gently touched Lu Zhaozhao’s little head, and the soft sensation made his mood lighten up slightly, “I’ll go deal with so things on my end, wait for to co back.”

“Okay.” Lu Zhaozhao lay on the bed, imdiately giving Song Sinian feedback.

Only then did he stand up and leave the bedroom.

Lu Zhaozhao reached out for the mobile phone on the bedside table, lying on the pillow and struggling to send out a ssage.

[Mom Xia, I’ve got sothing urgent this Sunday and can’t make it over, I’m sorry.]

Soon, she received a reply from the other side of the computer.

[Take care of whatever you need to, Mom’s always here waiting for you to co back ho.]

Looking at the warm words on the screen, Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes instantly narrowed into crescents, and then she sent another ssage.

[Thank you, Mom Xia.]

“Ding—”

The short ssage tone rang out in the room, and Wen Qingyu imdiately picked up her mobile phone; upon seeing the ssage, she couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

“What’s wrong, Mom?” Xia Wenjue, who was picking dishes, saw that Wen Qingyu’s face didn’t look too good and couldn’t help but ask.

The only thing that could possibly concern his mom this much was probably Lu Zhaozhao. Could it be that sothing had happened to her?

Xia Wenjue’s dark eyes narrowed slightly. Had Cao i and the others moved so quickly?

If that were the case, the bodyguard he had assigned to protect Lu Zhaozhao would have reported to him by now.

While he was thinking, his phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated, and Xia Wenjue’s heart skipped a beat.

“Zhaozhao says she won’t be coming over for dinner on Sunday; I don’t know if sothing happened.” Wen Qingyu sighed lightly, suddenly losing her appetite for lunch.

Xia Wenqing sneakily glanced at Xia Wenjue and, seeing that the latter’s face wasn’t looking right, gently nudged him with his arm and whispered, “Big brother, is everything okay on your end?”

Wei Wenjue had inford him of the incident involving Lu Zhaozhao being secretly photographed yesterday, so upon hearing Wen Qingyu say Lu Zhaozhao couldn’t make it, he too was a bit worried.

Xia Wenjue didn’t say anything but took out his phone from his pocket and saw the ssage about Lu Zhaozhao’s injury from climbing.

He frowned and sent a ssage back, then leaned slightly toward Xia Wenqing, saying, “She had an accident while climbing and got injured.”

As for whether it was really an accident, that would have to wait for the results of a further investigation.

Upon hearing this, Xia Wenqing’s expression didn’t look any better.

Seeing the atmosphere at the dining table turn somber in an instant because of Lu Zhaozhao’s ssage, Xia Wenyan’s brows imdiately knotted.

“If you guys are free this weekend, I can call Wen Jin over; she’s a sister too, does it matter who we invite?”

“…”

“…”

“…”

Now the entire dining room fell silent.

Xia Wenyan looked straight at the three of them, blinking cluelessly, “Did I, did I say sothing wrong?”

Wen Qingyu glanced at Xia Wenyan, took his bowl, and called out to Kaka who was lying on one side, “Lao Si, co, let Mom add a chicken leg for you.”

With that, she picked up a chicken leg and placed it in the bowl in front of Kaka.

Xia Wenyan: “???”

“Wen Qingyu continued, “Lao Si, when your sister arrives, don’t be like so ungrateful wretch, okay? Get along with your sister, you hear?” As he spoke, he even patted Kaka’s head.

The corners of Xia Wenyan’s mouth twitched, and his gaze shifted toward his oldest and second brothers sitting opposite him.

Yet he saw them each hand a chicken wing with their chopsticks, stuffing two more into Kaka’s bowl.

“Co on, Lao Si, eat up.”

“Lao Si, have another chicken wing.”

“???”

Xia Wenyan watched the childish trio in front of him, so infuriated he almost had to pinch himself to calm down.

Suddenly, his phone on the dining table vibrated.

Xia Wenyan glanced at it and discovered it was a text ssage from the principal of Yuqing University.

“Xia Wenjin skipped school on Friday without taking leave. I hope nothing’s wrong?”

Xia Wenyan’s frown deepened, and he imdiately dialed Xia Wenjin.

At the ti Xia Wenjin was admitted to the university, he had specially asked the principal to look out for her and even left an ergency contact for convenience.

His mom wasn’t adept at handling these matters, his dad was often traveling with his mom, his oldest brother was too busy, his second and third brothers didn’t like Xia Wenjin, so all the responsibilities fell on his shoulders.

“Doo doo doo…”

The phone rang for ages before Xia Wenjin finally picked up.

“Hello? Wen Jin, where did you go last Friday? Why didn’t you go to class? Did sothing happen?”

There was a brief pause on the other end of the phone, then ca a voice full of grievance, “Did Lu Zhaozhao tell you? Didn’t she tell you how she bullied that day?”

An eerie silence fell over the dining table, Xia Wenjin’s voice ringing clear in everyone’s ears.

The atmosphere in the dining room visibly dropped.

Xia Wenyan hurriedly explained, “It wasn’t her. The principal saw you skipped class and sent a ssage. Did sothing happen to you?”

By now, everyone in their family was cherishing Lu Zhaozhao, and Xia Wenjin’s words didn’t help her case. At this rate, he couldn’t hold them back much longer.

But Xia Wenjin completely missed Xia Wenyan’s hint and continued to sling mud at Lu Zhaozhao, “What else could happen to except being bullied by Lu Zhaozhao? Mrs. Lu was kind enough to suggest we get along, to let her stay at the Lu residence for a few days, but she not only declined but also insulted !”

“Uh… That does seem a bit much,” said Xia Wenyan, and as soon as the words ca out, two sharp gazes fixed on him.

Xia Wenjue and Xia Wenqing both knew that Lu Zhaozhao refrained from returning to the Lu Family for fear of her privacy being invaded. Xia Wenjin, fully aware of the truth, had deliberately tried to lure Lu Zhaozhao back, which was downright malicious!

When Xia Wenjin heard Xia Wenyan seem to take her side, she quickly added, “Fourth brother, can’t you persuade Lu Zhaozhao to stay at the Lu residence for a few days? I really do want to get along with her…”

“This…” Xia Wenyan clearly hesitated.

As far as his relationship with Lu Zhaozhao went, far from persuading her, he wouldn’t have exchanged a word with her if she hadn’t co over for dinner on weekends.

Seeing that he was slow to agree, Xia Wenjin complained, “I heard Lu Zhaozhao goes to our house every week. She must have bad-mouthed a lot, even mom and big brother have been colder to . If even you, fourth brother, believe her, then there’s no one to help …”

Xia Wenyan, rembering the tis Lu Zhaozhao had visited their ho, pursed his lips and couldn’t help defending her, “Lu Zhaozhao does co every weekend, but she has never bad-mouthed you.”

“I knew it, fourth brother, you’ve changed too! You’re siding with Lu Zhaozhao! I don’t want to talk to you anymore!” Having said that, Xia Wenjin hung up the phone.

Leaving Xia Wenyan completely baffled.

The phone call to Xia Wenjin was not ant to be about Lu Zhaozhao, was it?

As he was still bemused, Xia Wenjue ca over, patted his shoulder with a significant gesture, and solemnly began—
