Chapter 1112: Chapter 1112: Using Husband to Fend Off Taohua
Lu Yichen was unaware that his second uncle had made a note of him without any reason.
The four of them had already fetched their identity documents and were preparing to board the plane, wondering if the mission could proceed smoothly and hoping for an early completion to reunite with their families.
Perhaps some things were truly meant to be, for not long after he landed, a message that was uncertain whether to be good news or bad news reached them.
Currently, he was still sitting in his seat, oblivious to everything, gazing out the airplane window and thinking of his wife and daughter.

On this weekend day, Lisa was watching Luo Qiao pack her things: “Are you going out?”
“Yes, I have some errands to run.”
“Luo Qiao, it seems like you’re always busy with things?”
“Being busy is fulfilling, isn’t it?”
Lisa shrugged, “Okay, you always have a reason to convince me. Today, some classmates are going to visit the main campus, they want to tour the Charles River and also visit Massachusetts Institute of Technology, it’s a pity you won’t join.”
Luo Qiao gave a faint smile, patted her on the shoulder: “There will be plenty of time in the future, but I really have things to take care of today. Have fun, and remember to tell me all about it when you’re back, bye.”
Saying so, she dashed out, but just as she exited the apartment, a young man approached her with a bouquet of flowers: “Hi, hello.”
Luo Qiao was startled for a moment, “Hello, do you need help?”
Having been there for just over a month, she didn’t think the flowers were meant for her, prompting her response.
The young man smiled brightly, “Hello, I’m Andrew from the business school, can we be friends?”
Luo Qiao furrowed her brows, “What?”
Andrew, a little nervous, repeated himself, “Can we be friends?”
After Luo Qiao comprehended, she burst into laughter, “Sorry, I’m already married and I have two lovely daughters.”
Andrew was stunned. A Eurasian, he had a particularly strong admiration for East Asians since his mother was a very alluring Eastern woman; he had been deeply attracted to Luo Qiao the first time he saw her.
They had encountered each other a few times since and today he finally mustered the courage to make a friend, only to learn she was already married with kids. He stood frozen, unsure of what to do next.
Seeing him in this state, Luo Qiao politely offered a smile: “Goodbye.”
As she left, she heard laughter in the distance and specifically looked in that direction, guessing those were Andrew’s friends.
She had no interest in teasing others, so she thought it better to take her husband and kids out instead.
She had called yesterday; their visas had been approved, but they hadn’t secured tickets this week and had to wait until next week.
Luo Qiao was planning today to pick up some kitchen supplies. Everything else was already prepared, and Auntie Mary next door had just had her dog give birth to puppies, promising to give one to her a few days ago.
She had checked them out; they were native Boston Terrier puppies. To be honest, they were somewhat ugly, but she had heard that Boston Terriers were particularly intelligent, though she wasn’t sure if it was true.
She didn’t venture far today, just bought what she needed at the local grocery store, and the clerk helped deliver them to her home.
After cleaning all the kitchen supplies she had bought and arranging them properly, everything was ready, just awaiting their arrival.
Originally the garden fence was only waist-high, but Luo Qiao, accustomed to the domestic habits from her homeland, had it raised during a minor repair, and given she might still be residing in the college for a short time, she had added security measures on top of the garden wall.
After she finished tidying up, she locked up and left.
Today she had another important task, which was to scout the Jun Family Main Residence.
Recently, she had heard the Jun family was in complete disarray, and since she had gotten a phone, she kept receiving continuous updates about the Jun family’s affairs.
After heading out, she rented a bicycle and headed to the provided location, circled around the Jun family’s villa, and realized such a vast area was home to only five families, truly a display of luxury.
All this had been acquired over the tears and blood of the Huang family, and yet they still harbored thoughts of harming her and her children. Just wait—they would pay the price.
Familiar with the terrain, she pedaled away on her bicycle.
