The butler’s voice was loud, and Bai Qian could hear everything.
She quickly ran to Lu Rong’s side and asked him, “What’s wrong with Ran-Ran? What does Qi Yue want to do to Ran Ran?”
“Nothing,” Lu Rong looked at the anxious Bai Qian and asked suspiciously, “Why are you more anxious than me?”
“Of course, because I’m her maid. Won’t I lose my job if anything happens to her?” Fortunately, Bai Qian came up with an excuse quick enough. She almost exposed her identity.
In the car back to Lu Garden, Bai Qian was restless. She stuck her head out and asked the driver, “How much longer until we reach Lu Garden?”
The driver replied, “Soon.”
Ten minutes later, she couldn’t help but ask again, “How much longer will it take for us to reach now?”
The driver replied again, “Soon.”
Bai Qian was speechless.
It worried Bai Ran when the thoughts of Qi Yue, who was a b*tch bullying her young daughter.
What if Qi Yue did something to Ran Ran? Bai Qian was so anxious that she was about to die.
Compared to Bai Qian, Lu Rong, who sat beside her, was calm. He squinted his eyes as he looked at Bai Qian, “Aren’t you being too anxious?”
Being overly anxious was a little like putting on an act.
Bai Qian rolled her eyes at him. She had no mood to explain.
It was the first time Bai Ran had been away from her for so long. She was the weakest of the three children.
When Bai Ran was born, her voice was as soft as a kitten’s, weak and intermittent.
Bai Qian had been on tenterhooks for a few days. Only when Bai Qian had checked everything and made sure her child was alright did she finally relax.
