Shi Qingyue quickly cupped her hand over his mouth.

In Bai Rui!s eyes, this behavior meant tacit agreement.

Bai Rui held her wffist and smiled. “So you admit it? Is that child…”

Before he could finish, Shi Qingyue pulled her hand back and glared at him. “That has nothing to do with you. Stop spouting nonsense here!”

As soon as she finished speaking, a car drove by a moderate distance away. The car seemed to slow down, and Shi Qingyue was so frightened that she stepped back.

Fortunately, the car quickly drove past.

Shi Qingyue looked up at Bai Rui and placed her hand on the doorknob. “Bai Rui, I have nothing to do with you anymore. This is something we agreed on more than ten years ago; the matters of the people around me have nothing to do with you. Don’t come here and disturb the peace I finally have, don’t ruin my life. I beg you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Bai Rui with teary eyes and said softly, “Please, leave.”

With that, she closed the door without hesitation.

Bai Rui looked at the closed door, propped his hat, and grinned.

He was not in a hurry. At least, based on Shi Qingyue’s reaction, things were just as he had guessed.

Even after more than ten years, he still knew Shi Qingyue very well.

Shi Qingyue’s expressions and actions were easy to understand, so he did not need to think too much about it.

He suddenly peered upwards, towards a camera in the Lù family’s villa.

He took off his hat and face mask, and arrogantly smiled in the direction of the camera.

Even though he was already middle-aged, Bai Rui was still very handsome, and his appearance was very well-maintained. His mature and sharp features could make many young ladies go crazy.

In the end, he did not do anything else. After putting on his hat, he turned around and left.

However, Shi Qingyue was pressed against the back door, afraid that Bai Rui would push the door open and force his way in again.

Her chest was heaving up and down. She was a little agitated—but more than that, she was afraid.

She was afraid that Bai Rui would rush in, afraid that Lù Chuan and the Old Master would see him. She was so afraid…

Fortunately, Bai Rui did not do so. Shi Qingyue heaved a sigh of relief when she heard his footsteps from outside.

She leaned against the back door and waited quietly for a while before slowly turning around. She stood in front of the door, then turned the handle slowly.

There was no one outside.

Shi Qingyue immediately sighed in relief. Her legs felt weak as she held onto the door frame.

She did not expect Bai Rui to come. She did not expect him to find her. Everything was flawless, so how did he find out?!

Shi Qingyue could not figure it out. Many complicated emotions intertwined in her heart, tightening her chest.

Then, she heard a voice behind her.

“Mommy, what happened to you?”

Lù Yue’an’s voice came from behind, and Shi Qingyue was startled.

Lù Yue’an came over to support Shi Qingyue.

Shi Qingyue looked at her and immediately held her hand nervously, then quickly shut the door.

She did not know if Bai Rui had gone far or if he had really left. In any case, she could not let him see Lù Yue’an.

Lù Yue’an was a little frightened when she saw Shi Qingyue’s appearance,

“Mommy, what happened to you?”

Shi Qingyue grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the house.

Lù Yue’an was so frightened by Shi Qingyue’s appearance that she did not dare to speak. She simply looked at her back.

Shi Qingyue tightened her grip, turning her wrist red where she held her. Shi Qingyue did not stop even after she entered the house.. She glanced around the living room…
