Qiao Xu was startled by the words Lu Moqin spoke while holding back his anger.
It would be a lie to say she wasn’t shocked.
But as shocked as she was, she still needed to make things clear, to avoid causing trouble in the future.
With that thought in mind, she took a deep breath and said, "That’s your decision, but you can’t force to do the sa. There are many people in this world, and I’m not limited to you. If one day I et soone I truly love, I won’t hesitate to leave you."
She avoided Lu Moqin’s stormy gaze as she cold-heartedly finished her words.
When she said, "I am not limited to you," Lu Moqin’s heart was fiercely stabbed, causing a bitter and painful sensation.
Yes, she was not limited to him.
As she had once told him, he had already worn away her attachnt to him during those three years.
So, on what grounds could he arrogantly assu that he would be the only one in her heart for the rest of her life?
He knew very well that the only reason she agreed to remarry him was for their son, to give him a complete family.
And the premise was that she hadn’t fallen in love with another man, so marrying Qiao Yi’s father would be the most appropriate choice.
Yes, it was just because it was suitable, and because he was Qiao Yi’s biological father, that she agreed to remarry him, regardless of emotions.
Lu Moqin’s heart was stabbed again and again, causing an unbearable pain.
Qiao Xu didn’t look into his eyes but simply looked down and said, "If you don’t agree, let’s forget about it to avoid unnecessary entanglents."
After saying this, she sighed softly and prepared to leave to find her son, but Lu Moqin grabbed her wrist.
With a low, hoarse voice filled with sadness and loss, Lu Moqin helplessly said, "Fine, I agree. I agree to everything, including..."
He pursed his lips, suppressing the surge of pain in his heart, and whispered, "If you fall in love with soone else, I... I will let you go."
"Promise !"
"Yes, I promise!"
Lu Moqin nodded with a sowhat forced smile on his face.
After reaching an agreent, Qiao Xu didn’t bring up any more requests. "Let’s find a ti to get the remarriage procedures done."
After saying this, she pulled her hand out of Lu Moqin’s palm and didn’t look at his gloomy expression again.
Watching Qiao Xu’s figure disappear at the entrance of the master bedroom, Lu Moqin stood still with a bitter smile on his face.
"So cruel."
Stabbing his heart again and again, causing him unbearable pain.
*****
There were many tasks at the Lu’s that required Lu Moqin’s personal attention. Even though he had a group of capable people under him, he couldn’t afford to slack off easily.
He had been away from City A for only two days, and there was already a pile of work waiting for him.
Qiao Xu saw Lu Moqin sitting in the living room downstairs, holding an international video conference when she ca out of the master bedroom with Qiao Yi.
With a mouthful of fluent and authentic Arican English, Qiao Yiyi was completely baffled. Although he had grown up in the United States until he was three, he could only speak at a conversational level, let alone understand his father’s professional terms used in the marketplace.
However, Qiao Xu understood.
There seed to be so issues with a project that Lu’s were working on with the local governnt in San Francisco, but it hadn’t been resolved.
