Chapter 307 Qiao Luo, can't you really forgive me?
Lu Tingnian: "..."
It's obvious they didn't intend to keep him!
However, Lu Tingnian was in no hurry to say anything, after all, he had plenty of ways to do things.
So he put his luggage in the yard and then walked towards the study.
Qiao Luo followed.
The two arrived at the study one after the other.
After Lu Tingnian arrived at the study, he did not rush to search immediately. Instead, he looked around until he caught sight of Qiao Luo standing at the door. Only then did he pretend to search.
"What? Still haven't found it?"
Seeing that he had searched for a long time without finding it, Qiao Luo had no choice but to ask.
Hearing her ask about the pattern, Lu Tingnian couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Maybe I remembered it wrong, let me think about it again."
He said this while making a gesture as if he was trying hard to recall.
Qiao Luo was speechless. Did he think he couldn't see through his clumsy acting?
That's enough, are you addicted to lying to her?
Qiao Luo grew angrier the more she thought about it and was about to explode.
"I remember now, it's here."
As he spoke, he pulled a file folder from the corner of the bookshelf and held it in his hand.
Qiao Luo had no choice but to suppress her anger.
"Now that we've found it, let's hurry up and go."
She was eager to urge the customers to leave.
Lu Tingnian was speechless.
Is there really such a rush?
Because of the look in Qiao Luo's eyes, he had no choice but to compromise.
"It is indeed too late, I'll leave right away."
As he spoke, he took the document bag and walked towards the door, but as soon as he reached the door, he slumped against the wall.
"Ouch..."
Seeing that he looked like he was in great pain, Qiao Luo stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
Her tone was neither warm nor cold, and Lu Tingnian quickly let out another painful groan.
"Stomach hurts."
Looking at his pained expression, Qiao Luo didn't know if it was real or not. In any case, ever since she discovered that he had lied to her, she had stopped believing anything he said.
"Seeing how much pain you're in, I'll call an ambulance for you."
She was about to pick up her phone to make a call when Lu Tingnian stopped her.
"No need, I'm just hungry. I'll be fine after eating something."
Seeing the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, which didn't seem to be faking, Qiao Luo softened and helped him up, saying, "Let's go sit in the living room for a while, I'll go find you something to eat."
As she spoke, she helped Lu Tingnian to lie down on the sofa in the living room before turning to go to the kitchen. However, after searching for a long time, she couldn't find anything that could immediately fill his stomach, so she had to return and say, "I'll cook you a bowl of noodles."
After saying that, she turned and went back to the kitchen, without glancing at Lu Tingnian once.
Lu Tingnian saw it all. Although he felt a little disappointed, he knew very well that it was what he deserved, since he had deceived her.
Qiao Luo busied herself in the kitchen for a while before cooking the noodles and serving them.
She placed the bowl of noodles on the coffee table in front of Lu Tingnian and helped him up.
"Eat it while it's hot."
Lu Tingnian didn't go to eat right away, but stared at the steaming bowl of noodles, somewhat lost in thought.
Once upon a time, when he needed help the most, someone brought him a bowl of hot noodles, and it was that bowl of noodles that made him feel the warmth of this world.
A sudden pang of sadness welled up inside him, and he couldn't help but slowly look up at Qiao Luo standing to the side.
"Qiao Luo, can't you really forgive me?"
Hearing his question, Qiao Luo did not answer, but instead looked down at her feet.
"Didn't we already agree to get a divorce?"
Her voice was choked up.
Lu Tingnian was a little agitated. He stood up, took her hand, and said, "You can go back on your word."
He looked at her earnestly.
Qiao Luo's hand was being held by him like that, and she felt the warmth from his palm. She was slightly dazed, but only for a moment before she came to her senses and shook him off.
"You can go back on your promises, and you can lie to me without batting an eye, but I can't. I will never take back what I say. That's my principle."
Her eyes were bloodshot, with a few drops of water welling up inside. She quickly tilted her head back to stop the tears from falling.
Lu Tingnian didn't say anything, he just stared at her.
When Qiao Luo said he had lied to her, her eyes were filled with intense hatred.
Yes, he saw it clearly; it was hatred. She hated him.
Is it just because he lied to her?
For some reason, Lu Tingnian felt a pang of pain in his heart. He held his breath and exhaled after a long while with his eyes closed.
As if he had figured something out, he slowly opened his eyes and said to Qiao Luo,
"Okay, thank you for the noodles. My stomach suddenly doesn't hurt anymore."
As he spoke, he turned to leave, but then remembered something and turned back to her, saying, "Tomorrow I'll have Han Jian go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to queue up. I'll let you know when it's your turn."
After saying that, he turned and walked outside.
Qiao Luo wanted to call out to him, after all, it was so late and he was carrying his luggage alone, she was a little worried, but then she thought, how could he be alone?
After all, he also has his assistant, Han Jian, right?
Thinking of this, Qiao Luo felt ridiculous. She took back what she wanted to say and slowly sat down on the sofa.
He had just sat there; the warmth still lingered—his warmth.
However, she felt unusually cold, from her heart to her body, so cold that she shivered repeatedly.
She couldn't help but hug herself tightly.
When Lu Tingnian arrived at the gate, Han Jian's car was already waiting there.
"Mr. Lu, didn't you say you were going to stay here tonight?"
