After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 188 - Mr. Song, when do you plan to claim your prize?
Chapter 188 -188 Mr. Song, when do you plan to claim your prize?
“I guess even Xia Wenyan doesn’t know about this.”
“Do I need to remind Xia Wenyan?” Song Sinian said quietly when he noticed Lu Zhaozhao lost in thought.
Lu Zhaozhao shook her head, “No need.”
If in the previous life, everything truly was orchestrated by Xia Wenjin, then she would definitely make a move.
It was Xia Wenyan who first encountered trouble among their several brothers.
Lu Zhaozhao thought for a moment, then raised her eyes slightly, looked at Song Sinian, and said, “Mr. Song, I also want to participate in this variety show.”
Xia Wenyan is too straightforward. Judging by his previous defense of Xia Wenjin, she was worried that he would be calculated by Xia Wenjin.
Song Sinian’s fingertips lightly tapped on the table and said indifferently, “There’s really no problem in joining the show…”
But the thought of Lu Zhaozhao’s time, which was originally all his, being divided again, made him inexplicably annoyed.
During the time Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian had been together, she had clearly understood his way of thinking.
She immediately moved closer to Song Sinian and gave him a peck on the cheek, “This is a bonus, and there will be a big reward after the success.”
As she spoke, Lu Zhaozhao also playfully winked at Song Sinian.
She had always been worried that Song Sinian, who had been accumulating rewards, would pull a big move on her.
So every time she asked Song Sinian for a favor, she was on tenterhooks.
But ever since she told Song Sinian about the things she had been suppressing in her heart, Lu Zhaozhao had just given up on worrying.
Song Sinian had already accumulated quite a few rewards; another one or two wouldn’t make a difference.
Lu Zhaozhao’s words were obviously very effective with Song Sinian; his dark eyes narrowed and he decisively nodded in agreement.
“Mr. Song, when do you plan to claim your reward?” As Lu Zhaozhao spoke, she leaned on the chair next to him and stretched out her small hand to gently tug at the tie on his collar.
Song Sinian was pulled forward slightly by her small hand, bringing him much closer to her.
His dark eyes gleamed faintly, his gaze falling on her mischievous little hands, “I think… I’ll redeem after this task is completed.”
Lu Zhaozhao’s hand, which was tugging at Song Sinian’s tie, stiffened, her eyebrows lifting slightly, “Are you sure?”
Song Sinian gently pulled his tie back, his lips lightly landing a kiss on the back of her hand, “Yes, I’m very sure.”
Lu Zhaozhao’s small hand suddenly trembled; the thing she had been anxious about was going to happen so soon, and she actually felt a bit nervous.

Lu Zhaozhao took a deep breath and then clenched her little fist seriously, “Don’t worry, Mr. Song, I’ll do my best!”
“…”
The Xia Family found out the next day that Lu Zhaozhao wasn’t upset about their status.
They originally wanted to invite Lu Zhaozhao to the Xia Family to have a good talk but were refused by Song Sinian.
The Xia Family felt that it was with Song Sinian’s help that they were able to stabilize Lu Zhaozhao, so they didn’t dare to make too much fuss.
In the end, they could only choose a representative to interact with Lu Zhaozhao and explain the whole story.
As Lu Zhaozhao looked at Wen Qingyu sitting in the café’s private room waiting for her, she suddenly became nervous.
Even more nervous than the first time she visited the Xia Family.
When Wen Qingyu saw Lu Zhaozhao standing at the door, she waved at her and said, “Zhaozhao, come sit down. I’ve ordered your favorite little cakes, would you like to try some?”
Lu Zhaozhao sat across from Wen Qingyu, looking at the table filled with desserts, and tugged at the corner of her mouth, “Isn’t this, isn’t this a bit too much?”
Wen Qingyu gently shook her head, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lu Zhaozhao, smiling warmly, “Not at all, not at all, we might chat for a very long time.”
They had always been worried about telling Lu Zhaozhao the truth, fearing that their daughter might disappear completely, so she had also been very uneasy.
Now that Lu Zhaozhao knew everything, she felt much more relaxed.
Only…
Wen Qingyu’s gaze traveled over Lu Zhaozhao in front of her, clearly noticing her restraint.
Indeed… Zhaozhao must still hold some resentment in her heart…
Wen Qingyu’s lips pressed together, and just as she thought about how to start the conversation, Lu Zhaozhao’s voice reached her first.
“Um, Mom, I’m really sorry, but the painting you gave me last time got ruined when I took it to school.”
She had been puzzled at the time as to why she was so lucky to get a Luna painting, only to find out it was a gift from her own mother.
Although Lu Zhaozhao was surprised, she still found the gesture warm.
But… the painting was now destroyed.
She had only thought that someone might tamper with it, not that they would outright destroy her painting.
As Lu Zhaozhao thought this, she felt very self-reproachful.
“Uh…” Wen Qingyu’s eyes suddenly widened a lot.
She had just assumed that Lu Zhaozhao was uneasy because she had yet to adapt to the identity of the Xia family, but it turned out to be because of this.
Wen Qingyu suddenly let out a light laugh, resting her chin in her hands and tenderly looking at Lu Zhaozhao, “It’s just a painting. If there’s nothing else, our house has plenty of paintings. If you don’t like the previous ones, Mom can paint for you every day.”
Lu Zhaozhao waved her hands repeatedly, smiled shyly, and said, “No need, no need, just… maybe you could sign another one for me in the future?”
“Of course, of course, whatever our Zhaozhao says goes,” Wen Qingyu replied, reaching out a gentle hand to ruffle Lu Zhaozhao’s hair.
She had missed her daughter’s childhood and wasn’t there for her when she needed maternal love the most, so the more sensible Lu Zhaozhao was, the more it pained her.
Wen Qingyu looked at Lu Zhaozhao with affection, her tone even softer than before, “Zhaozhao, you can also try to act spoiled with Mom; you don’t have to be so sensible, being a bit capricious is fine too.”
Something seemed to poke Lu Zhaozhao’s heart, and a warm feeling immediately rose within her.
In her previous life, she was surrounded by insincere people; she never expected that one day she would feel the affection of her family.
Lu Zhaozhao lowered her eyes slightly, revealing a graceful smile, “Okay! I’ll try to be a bit more capricious in the future, hopefully I won’t scare you and Dad away…”
Wen Qingyu laughed at Lu Zhaozhao’s words, and just as she was about to say something more, the door to the private room was suddenly flung open violently.
“Yo, there’s quite a feast here!” A sarcastic voice rang out in the room.
Five or six ruffian-looking men barged in, surrounding Lu Zhaozhao and Wen Qingyu.
The person closest to the door then closed it again from the inside.
Their ill-intended gaze swept over the two individuals in the room, and their smiles grew even sleazier.
Wen Qingyu’s expression instantly darkened as she said sharply, “You’ve walked into the wrong room, haven’t you? Please leave now!”
The bald leader rubbed his head, laughing lecherously, “Hahahaha… I haven’t got the wrong room, I was looking for you! Didn’t expect to find a big one and get a little bonus, what a pleasant surprise!”
As he spoke, he directly pulled something out of his chest and slammed it onto the table—
