Chapter 882: Transaction, Conspiracy
Lilith was startled and quickly stopped Zhang Kaifeng, saying, "Wait a minute, I was just talking."
"So you agree to let me send someone to follow you?"
Lilith pursed her lips tightly. She hated the feeling of being controlled. But she was powerless to resist this man. This feeling of powerlessness made her hate Lin Yuqing even more. She didn't understand why these outstanding men were always around her!
However, even if Zhang Kaifeng sent someone to follow me, would there be no way to take action against that child? Humph, that's underestimating me, Lilith!
With a fierce look in her eyes, Lilith whispered, "When will you hand the person over to me?"
"Of course the sooner the better. I want to resolve this matter as soon as possible. I don't want Yuqing to think about Xiao Mingyang anymore."
"Then it will be fine after a week. I'll make a phone call and ask the Xiao family to prepare to welcome this young master."
After taking another sip of coffee, Zhang Kaifeng stood up and said, "I'll call you once I've made the arrangements. Just wait for the notification."
After saying that, Zhang Kaifeng didn't look at Lilith again, turned around and walked out of the coffee shop.
Looking at Zhang Kaifeng's tall figure, Lilith's eyes were hazy.
His back really resembled Xiao Mingyang. But that man had been in a coma for a long time, and it had been a long time since she had seen his deep eyes.
Grandpa treated Xiao Mingyang as a pawn, ready to be discarded at any time. But Lilith couldn't bear to see Xiao Mingyang die, so she worked hard to maneuver between the various parties.
The situation is different now. As long as I can bring Xuan'er back, Grandpa will definitely be very happy. After all, a child is much easier to control than an adult. With a new chess piece, Grandpa will let Xiao Mingyang go. This man can belong to me completely!
Lilith couldn't help but laugh out loud when she thought that her long-cherished dream was finally coming true.

After taking the two children from the teacher, Lin Yuqing said goodbye to the teacher with a smile, then took Zhenzhen and Xuaner's hands and slowly walked home along the path beside the street.
"Mommy, the teacher praised me today!"
"Really?" Lin Yuqing looked at Zhenzhen with a smile and asked, "How did the teacher praise you?"
With a happy smile, Zhenzhen said, "The teacher said my math was great and I got an A+."
"Wow, Zhenzhen is so amazing." Lin Yuqing leaned over to Zhenzhen and gave her a kiss.
Turning to look at Xuan'er, Lin Yuqing asked again: "How was Xuan'er's score this time? It must be an A+ too."
Math problems in kindergarten were a piece of cake for Xuan'er, so Lin Yuqing didn't think much about it and felt that she would definitely get full marks this time.
But Zhenzhen pulled Lin Yuqing's hand and said, "Mommy, brother handed in a blank paper this time and got zero points! The teacher was also very surprised."
Zero points! ?
Lin Yuqing looked at Xuan'er in surprise and asked, "Did Xuan'er not take the exam?"
"No," Xuan'er said, lowering his head while picking up a stone from the road. "I think the exam is boring. The questions are too easy. I'm too lazy to do them."
Suddenly stopping, Lin Yuqing squatted down in front of Xuan'er, frowning and saying, "Your attitude is wrong. This is disrespectful to the teacher and the children! What did Mommy teach you?"
Seeing Lin Yuqing's serious expression, Zhenzhen's eyes suddenly turned red. She quietly tugged at Lin Yuqing's sleeve and begged, "Mommy, please don't criticize your brother, okay?"
Seeing Zhenzhen was a little scared, Lin Yuqing patted her little face with some heartache and said, "Mommy didn't criticize brother, she just let him know where he was wrong."
Turning to look at Xuan'er, Lin Yuqing said again: "Look, you scared your sister to tears. You are a good child. Mommy doesn't want to criticize you. I hope you can figure this out on your own."
Xuan'er looked up at Lin Yuqing, and lowered his head again in the face of Lin Yuqing's encouraging gaze.
Seeing Xuan'er's depressed mood, Lin Yuqing didn't say anything else.
After arriving home, Xuaner went back to his room to do his homework and didn't leave the room until dinner time.
How can a kindergarten child have so much homework?
Looking at the closed room, Lin Yuqing called Zhenzhen, who was eating ice cream, and asked, "What happened in the kindergarten recently?"
Zhenzhen licked her ice cream and shook her head, saying, "No, everything is good."
"If everything is fine, why is Xuan'er so depressed?"
Zhenzhen thought about it carefully and said, "If there must be something, it's that Xuan'er refused the teacher's recommendation and didn't participate in the speech contest."
"Recommendation?" Lin Yuqing heard it for the first time and asked, "What competition? Why hasn't Mommy heard of it?"
Zhenzhen tilted her forehead and said, "Because Xuan'er told me not to tell you. Mommy, am I keeping my word?"
Covering her forehead helplessly, Lin Yuqing thought to herself, Zhenzhen is really a real child...
When she looked up again, Lin Yuqing put on a smile and said, "Since we are really good children who can keep secrets, can we help mommy hide one too?"
Hearing this, Zhenzhen nodded excitedly and said, "Of course! Mommy, what do you want to tell Zhenzhen?"
Sitting next to Zhenzhen, Lin Yuqing whispered, "If you want to know Mommy's secret, shouldn't you exchange it with another secret? That would be fairer, right?"
Zhenzhen thought about it carefully, then nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, but Zhenzhen doesn't have any secrets."
"You don't have it, but Xuan'er has it, right? You can use his as an exchange."
Looking at Zhenzhen's innocent eyes, Lin Yuqing felt guilty, but she was also worried about Xuaner, so she could only bite the bullet and smile at Zhenzhen.
Xuan'er was a very smart child, and if he wasn't educated well, his talent would be wasted. Therefore, Lin Yuqing felt a lot of pressure, always worried that she wasn't doing enough.
Zhenzhen felt that Lin Yuqing's words made sense, and without thinking, she said, "Okay, then Zhenzhen will only tell Mommy."
Lin Yuqing nodded cautiously and looked at Zhenzhen seriously.
"Teacher Kevin thought Xuan'er was very eloquent and would be perfect for a speech contest, so he wanted to sign him up for the Future Star Children's Speech Contest. But Xuan'er refused, saying he didn't like standing on the stage. The teacher felt it was a pity and wanted you to help persuade Xuan'er. But he said Mommy hasn't been feeling well lately and needs to rest well, so the teacher didn't call you."
After hearing Zhenzhen's words, Lin Yuqing thought about it carefully and asked, "Then according to Zhenzhen, is it true that Xuan'er didn't participate in the competition because of Mommy?"
"No, if Xuan'er is really interested in something, he'll pay more attention to it. But he's never paid attention to speech competitions. I guess he really doesn't like it."
Lin Yuqing had never thought that Zhenzhen would give any useful advice, but after hearing Zhenzhen's words, she suddenly felt that her little daughter also had a sensitive heart.
