    Chapter 85 Conflict

    “Back off!”

    Seeing the middle-aged man’s arm waved, Xu Wen shouted anxiously.

    This sound instantly woke up Lu Qingrang.

    Lu Qing let his stiff body tremble suddenly, and subconsciously stepped back. The slap with the wind of the palm barely missed him and missed him.

    Xu Wen had already strode to his side, grabbed his tight arm, and shoved him behind him.

    The two of them were close to each other instantly.

    “Are you okay?” Xu Wen asked anxiously, his eyes locked on Lu Qingrang’s downcast face.

    Lu Qingrang slowly raised his eyes, his eyes a little distracted, and it took him a while to focus on Xu Wen’s face.He shook his head gently, his voice inaudible: “It’s okay.”

    This calm tone made Xu Wen angry. He suppressed his anger and turned his eyes to the two well-dressed middle-aged people opposite.

    Xia Guanshan was still looking at his failed hand, with a look of disbelief on his face.

    But the graceful and elegant woman still had tears in her eyes, as if she had endured great pain. She looked at Lu Qingrang sadly and couldn’t help but murmured: “Qingrang, do you really want to do this to your mother?”

    Xu Wen closed his eyes, and the system prompt sounded at the right time:

    [Qin Lanru, Xia Guanshan, Lu Qingrang’s adoptive parents]

    When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were already fierce.

    “Where are you two performing?”

    As he said this, he pulled Lu Qingrang back half a step to protect him even tighter.

    “Stand away, don’t you understand what keeping a distance means?”

    “Where did this bastard come from! He is also responsible for taking care of other people’s family affairs!” Xia Guanshan seemed to be completely angered, and his face was livid as his authority was challenged many times.

    “Family affairs? Are you worthy of mentioning the word family?”

    “How shameless are you?”

    Xu Wen completely tore off his politeness and choked coldly.

    He couldn’t forget the deep and shallow old wounds on Lu Qingrang’s body. Every time he saw them, it felt like fire was burning in his heart.

    He didn’t dare to think about the kind of indifference and callousness that would cause a child to have such marks all over it under the cover of clothes.

    At this moment, looking at the sanctimonious appearance of these two people, he only felt a wave of nausea.

    Qin Lanru seemed to be greatly stimulated when she saw Lu Qingrang just standing silently behind the strange young man, indifferent to his tearful pleas.

    Her tears fell more quickly, and her voice rose a little higher, pleading:

    “Qing Rang! You really want to force mom to death!”

    “Qingrang, please, mom, please, mom, please!”

    She repeated these words over and over again, becoming more and more emotional and crying more and more.

    Xu Wen looked coldly at these two well-dressed people, but they were like evil ghosts in their hearts.

    One kidnaps with tears, while the other suppresses them anytime and anywhere.

    How much mental persecution did Brother Lu endure in the past?

    In addition to Su Xia, the two seemingly decent lunatics in front of him were also the culprits who pushed him into the abyss.

    Seeing that Lu Qingrang still had no reaction, Qin Lanru used a move he was all too familiar with.

    Her knees weakened, and she pretended to kneel down in front of everyone.

    She had used this trick too many times, and Lu Qingrang was able to compromise every time.

    Xu Wen was shocked by this operation. Seeing that the woman’s knee was about to touch the ground, he stretched out his foot without thinking, and firmly pressed the upper of his shoe against the knee where she was kneeling.

    The scene suddenly fell into a strange stalemate.

    Qin Lanru was kneeling on the ground with one leg, but the other leg was barely supported by Xu Wen’s feet, and her whole body was hanging in an extremely embarrassing posture.

    “Hey, eldest sister, please forgive me for such a big gift.” Xu Wen sounded a little mocking.

    His kick abruptly stopped this painful drama.

    This place was originally a secluded corner, but due to some strange behaviors, it gradually attracted the attention of nearby office workers who went downstairs to buy food. Several curious eyes were cast on it, and some even slowed down.

    Qin Lanru couldn’t help but stand up in a hurry, wiping the tears on her face stiffly.

    Xia Guanshan’s anger had not subsided and was about to explode again, but Xu Wen keenly captured the panic flashing between the two people’s expressions.

    They were afraid of being embarrassed and afraid that the situation would get out of control, so they had no choice but to deal with Lu Qingrang behind closed doors.

    He immediately took out his mobile phone, unlocked it quickly, and pointed the camera lens at the two of them.

    “You two,” he held the phone steadily with his hand and said in a sarcastic tone, “please continue. Let me record it for you. You can’t just let me enjoy the performances of the two movie stars!”

    The two people’s movements froze instantly, and their arrogance dissipated instantly. They subconsciously turned their faces to the side, trying to avoid the camera.

    “Qing…” Qin Lanru just spoke, and Xu Wen directly thrust the phone in front of her face.

    She immediately became silent.

    “Why don’t you speak?”

    “Say it!”

    Xu Wen’s voice suddenly rose in pitch.

    He turned the camera to the livid Xia Guanshan: “What about you? Do you want to say a few words?”

    Xia Guanshan’s face turned green and white.He, a person who often appeared in financial news, felt that he had lost all face at this moment.

    “Go away or not”

    Xu Wen asked coldly.

    “You——!” Xia Guanshan glared at Xu Wen fiercely, couldn’t help but turn the finger back to Lu Qingrang, and shouted at a high volume: “Lu Qingrang! Are you mute? Do you want an outsider to scold me and your mother like this?!”

    He tried to use his past authority to persuade Lu Qingrang.

    Lu Qingrang, who had been silent, finally raised his eyes to look at them.

    “Get out.” He spat out one word.

    This word made both Xia Guanshan and Qin Lanru stunned.

    Xia Guanshan pointed at him with shaking hands: “You…you white-eyed wolf!”

    Qin Lanru also stared at him with an unprecedented disappointed look.

    “If you don’t get out,” Lu Qingrang continued, without any fluctuation in his tone, “I will contact someone to come over.”

    He paused and glanced at the stiff expressions of the two people.

    “Do you two want to stay and do a special interview?”

    This sentence completely broke through the two people’s strong-willed face.Xia Guanshan’s face turned pale and he could no longer speak. He grabbed Qin Lanru, almost dragging her, and rushed towards the black car on the roadside.

    The car drove away without any regret.

    Only then did the tense atmosphere finally relax.

    Lu Qingrang lowered his eyelashes and looked at Xu Wen’s hand that was still holding his wrist tightly.

    Just as he was about to speak, Xu Wen suddenly pulled him to his side with force and glared at him angrily: “Stop apologizing like that!”

    Before he finished speaking, the other hand reached into the pocket of his coat with familiarity and started rummaging angrily:

    “The guy named Wang doesn’t do anything for money, right? Look at me if I don’t call and scold him to death!”

    “” Lu Qingrang looked at his actions and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn’t stop him. He took out his mobile phone and handed it over obediently.

    Xu Wen took the phone and dialed the number directly.

    “Hey! You”

    Listening to Xu Wen’s sinister accusations on the other end of the phone, Lu Qingrang smiled in his eyes.He gently pinched the back of Xu Wen’s neck, then put his arm around his shoulders and led them towards the restaurant.

    Xu Wen was led forward by him while talking on the phone, reluctantly struggling.When he found that he couldn’t break away, he let him go.

    The phone hangs up.

    “They said they would send more people to patrol. Next time I buy food, I will go with you, do you hear me?” Xu Wen turned to look at Lu Qingrang, his tone was tough, but he couldn’t hide the concern in his words.

    “Okay.” Lu Qingrang nodded meekly.

    The two of them made a tacit agreement not to mention what happened just now, and walked forward side by side.

    After walking a few steps, Xu Wen’s eyes inadvertently glanced at the toes of Lu Qingrang’s shoes, where there was a trace of gray cream.

    He turned his head and looked at the corner where the dispute had just occurred. The torn cake was still lying on the ground.

    “What’s wrong?” Lu Qingrang noticed his pause.

    “It’s nothing.” Xu Wen looked away, stretched out his hand to gently hold Lu Qingrang’s arm, and led him to continue walking forward.
