Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 788 - 785: Lu Jincheng Is Confused by the Fever

Qin Huaixin resignedly squatted down and said to Leng Shuangshuang, "Shuang’er, Big Bao’s father will come to pick him up soon. Mommy is tired, let’s find a place to sit down and wait for them, okay?"

Although she was reluctant, hearing her mother say she was tired prompted Leng Shuangshuang to nod her head considerately and follow Qin Huaixin.

Before leaving, Qin Huaixin cast a deep glance at the room on the second floor.

Unexpectedly, this evening’s mishap had led her to discover Big Bao’s hiding place, truly a surprising gain.

At this moment, just after Qin Huaixin had left, a head peeked out from that room, looking around.

Lu Jincheng sat on the big bed with a stern face, silently watching that man.

"Kid, you’d better not let me find out you have any ideas about running away, otherwise I’ll make your life a living hell," Song Zhiqing sat down at the end of the bed, "If your daddy does what I asked and send the person back tomorrow, then, this will be the end of it."

The end of it?

Lu Jincheng’s eyes rolled around several times, then he said, "I knew it, you were lying about starving me to death."

"Is that so? Your life is in Lu Jinyang’s hands; if he doesn’t show up, you’ll still die."

"You bastard, murder is against the law!" Lu Jincheng glared at him furiously.

Hearing this, Song Zhiqing laughed loudly, "Kid, come with me, I’ve got something to show you." Having said that, he got up first. When he reached the door and saw that the other person had not followed, he added, "Scared to look?"

After the words fell, Lu Jincheng’s small body instantly slid off the bed and walked towards him with large strides.

If he knew that the man was going to show him a murder video, Lu Jincheng would never have gone. Because this video was none other than the one he had stolen from this man. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

But, hadn’t he edited away this video? How did he still have a backup?

To make his reaction appear age-appropriate, Lu Jincheng pointed at the screen in utmost horror, "You... you murderer!"

Song Zhiqing smiled, "Right, I’ve already broken the law, so, if Lu Jinyang doesn’t show up, I can continue to act against you."

Frightened, Lu Jincheng ran back, surveying the layout of the place as he did. As soon as he got back to the room, he crawled into the bed. To outsiders, he appeared genuinely terrified, but in reality, that was not the case.

In that man’s study, Lu Jincheng suddenly thought about the item the man had taken from prison. He wondered if that item might be on him, or in his study?

If so...

The next day, the first thing Song Zhiqing did when he got up was to check on Lu Jincheng.

He opened the door, and Lu Jincheng lay on the bed. From his angle, everything seemed normal. However, just as he was about to close the door and leave, the little boy on the bed suddenly cried out in pain.

Song Zhiqing paused his steps, followed by another cry of pain, louder than the one before.

He walked over slowly, only then noticing the child’s face was unnaturally red, with his lips dry and cracked due to dehydration. He frowned, reaching his hand toward the child’s forehead, his brows knitting together.

"Perfectly fine one moment, why the fever now?"

Song Zhiqing wanted to understand the reason, but Lu Jincheng was burning up with fever and was too delirious to respond to him.

He pursed his lips, staring at Lu Jincheng for a moment, then turned and left.

After an undeterminable amount of time, noises from the front door downstairs reached him, and the bedridden, feverish Lu Jincheng suddenly opened his eyes. He shook his head in discomfort, got off the bed, and walked outside.
