“That… that wasn’t what I meant. But people gossip a lot about widows, and it wouldn’t hurt to be careful about things. Don’t you think so?”

Leng Yejin did not answer her question. But that unchanging expression of his was unbearably oppressive and threatening.

He rose all of a sudden and walked over to Tong Lu. She took a step backward without being aware of it, but he grabbed her arm. She tried to withdraw her arm, but failed to do so because of how domineering the man’s grip was. Tong Lu felt dizzy. Right now, all she wanted to do was flee!

“Leng… Brother-in-law, let go of me!”

“Why are you so nervous? Are you fantasizing about dirty things?”

Tong Lu’s heart was beating rapidly. “No, I’m not.”

“Really?” Leng Yejin sneered and stuffed the credit card into her hand. His gaze was tremendously cold. “That’s great, then. Truth be told, I’m not interested in you at all. So there’s no need for you to worry!

“I’m only taking care of you guys because I have promised my older brother that I’ll be responsible for the both of you after he leaves the world. So, the two of you must stay here from now onwards. I won’t take no for an answer!”

His voice was very soft, but it was very domineering. His words were like a slap to the face. It was as if he was telling her that the fact that she felt awkward and uncomfortable meant nothing to him, and the fact that they had sex earlier meant nothing too.

Tong Lu took a deep breath. She was extremely embarrassed.

It was true. There must be many women going after a man like him. Why would he care that he had sex with a woman once to save her?

He definitely found it hilarious that she was so troubled about it.

But was it really appropriate for her to stay with her brother-in-law?

Leng Yejin did not give her more room for discussion. “Your room is next door. You can bring Shanshan there now. I’m going to rest.”

Tong Lu immediately brought Shanshan to her room. She stared at the credit card in a daze as she sat on the bed.

Shanshan climbed onto her lap and pleaded. “Mum, can we stay together with dad?”

She wanted a happy family too.

She was extremely captivated by the father she had just met.

Tong Lu tried to talk Shanshan out of this, but even after a few days, Shanshan was not swayed at all. Leng Yejin had arranged for Shanshan to attend a top elite school, and she was tremendously happy about it. It was true that her brother-in-law could afford to provide Shanshan with the type of good life she would never be able to provide for her daughter.

It seemed like she had no choice but to stay here for her daughter’s sake.

But the Leng family was rich and powerful, and they were also involved in politics. She was worried that her life would no longer be as peaceful as it used to be.

She had been staying in the Leng family’s manor for a month, and no one cared about her existence at all. But ever since she moved to her brother-in-law’s mansion, a lot of people had asked to meet her including Elder Leng’s widow, her father-in-law and other members of the Leng family. They tried to suck up to her...

Tong Lu knew very well that if it were not for the fact that Leng Yejin was the head of the household right now, those people would pay no heed to her at all.

In the Leng family, Leng Yejin was probably the only one who sincerely thought of her and Shanshan as his family members.

But would people really not gossip about the fact that she was staying with her brother-in-law? She was especially worried about this because she had sex with Leng Yejin before.

But Leng Yejin was a very busy man, and she could hardly catch a glimpse of him. It seemed like she had really been worried about nothing.

She was actually very busy too, as she had registered to become a volunteer for the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting earlier. Now that the meeting had begun, she was extremely busy even though she only played a small role. She had to leave home at 4:30am.

The maid who had been promoted to work in Leng Yejin’s mansion courtesy of her laughed at her. “Miss Tong, you’re only responsible for serving water and tea, but you look as troubled as the president.”

Tong Lu did not find it to be a problem. “The president personally organized this meeting, and it’s attended by leaders from many countries. Security is tight across the whole city, with all the residents having a few days off work so that policemen and soldiers can patrol the street. The importance of this meeting is self-evident. Moreover, the president is Leng Yejin’s second uncle, so I should do my best to make sure that this meeting is a success. I might even catch a glimpse of the president from afar.”

The maid, who was standing behind her, muttered, “What’s the point in looking at him from afar? If you want to meet the president, just ask for Young Master Jin’s help. He meets the president for tea every now and then.”
