Chapter 4: That Was Close!
Chapter 4: That Was Close!
Li Zhenting was walking when his icy gaze suddenly caught sight of an adorable little figure approaching him with a cool and confident demeanor, reminiscent of his own style. A trace of doubt flickered in his eyes as he prepared to take a closer look.
"Daddy!" At that moment, a pretty little girl of about five years old, dressed in a pink princess dress, called out to him in a sweet and childish voice. She ran towards him, opening her arms with small, graceful steps.
"Lanlan." His eyes were immediately drawn to Lanlan. A rare tenderness appeared on his cold face as he walked toward her, opening his arms.
"Daddy, I missed you so much! Did you miss me?" Lanlan flew into Li Zhenting\'s embrace, hugging his neck and planting kisses on his face.
...
Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
That was close!
She quickly moved her hand to the side, pulling little Coco away and gently rubbing his head, pressing down the sun hat to cover half of his face.
They were safe, for now.
However, her heart surged like a turbulent wave, filled with turmoil.
The affectionate embrace between Li Zhenting and the little girl, with his face radiating gentleness, was too piercing for her eyes, causing them to ache. The image of her mother\'s swollen and pale face, filled with helplessness and sorrow in her final moments, flashed through her mind all at once. She clenched her fists, consumed by hatred.
"Zhenting." At that moment, a gentle female voice came from behind.
Shen Ning slightly turned her head and saw Shen Mei approaching Li Zhenting, dressed in a sexy sleeveless shirt and a dark green long skirt. She gazed at him affectionately.
"Mummy!" The little girl sweetly called out to her.
"Hmm." Shen Mei smiled and playfully ruffled her hair.
So, Li Zhenting had come to pick up his wife and daughter!
Such a loving family of three!
Bastards!
Shen Ning\'s eyes burned crimson, filled with anger.
That night six years ago, in the moment when she was forcefully pushed into the sea, her panicked eyes caught a glimpse of a devilish and malicious face, along with a pair of venomous eyes. Even if she died three times, she would never forget that face.
Shen Mei!
This wicked and shameless woman! Her heart was rotten to the core, yet she still lived such a glamorous life. Why hadn\'t the heavens struck her down with thunder?
"Mummy your highness, what\'s wrong with you?"
Just as Shen Ning was infuriated and on the verge of losing control, wanting to rush forward and kill that despicable woman, Coco tugged at her hand from the side. His innocent face was filled with concern.
Shen Ning instantly regained her senses! A chill ran down her spine!
How could she be so impulsive? She wasn\'t alone anymore; she had her adorable little toddlers with her!
In these six years, whenever she felt anger and pain, she thought about seeking revenge countless times. But every time she saw this pair of adorable little toddlers, the hatred in her heart would gradually dissipate.
After all, she had been reborn, she had come back to life, and her heart had long since died. She would never have an ounce of love for this heartless scumbag.
Forget the past, focus on earning money, and raising her children properly. That was the most important thing.
She quickly turned around, holding one child in each hand, and walked briskly ahead.
"Lanlan, let\'s go home." On the other side, Li Zhenting turned with little Lanlan in his arms and walked towards the exit of the high-speed railway station.
Just as he turned around, a beautiful figure flashed by in front of him.
Li Zhenting\'s body trembled.
That woman\'s figure looked familiar, very much like her!
"Zhenting, what\'s wrong with you?" Shen Mei held Li Zhenting\'s arm, puzzled.
Li Zhenting snapped back to reality, and when he looked ahead again, there was no trace of the woman.
"It\'s nothing."
He replied faintly, pulling his arm out of Shen Mei\'s embrace and heading towards his Rolls-Royce with Lanlan.
