The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 887 - 305: Song Qiao’s Bad Temper

Li Man didn’t wait for Lu Jingchen to answer and continued, "My mom is still waiting for me at home. I came here to have breakfast and pick up some documents that she forgot yesterday. I took a taxi here, but it’s rush hour now, and cabs are hard to find. So could you give me a ride?"

Lu Jingchen looked at Li Man in front of him, slightly furrowing his brows, but he didn’t say much, nor did he refuse. He just nodded in agreement.

Li Man grew up in a single-parent family. Her father cheated and divorced her mother over a decade ago, taking his new lover and Li Man abroad, leaving her mother behind to run this breakfast shop.

Lu Jingchen’s adoptive parents weren’t wealthy, just ordinary people. When Lu Jingchen was young and hadn’t returned to the Lu Family, and was living with Murong Rui, Li Man’s mother treated them well, often bringing him to the shop for free meals.

Having known Li Man’s mother for nearly twenty years, Lu Jingchen could say they’ve been acquaintances for a long time.

As for Li Man, she returned to An City a few years ago, to be by her mother’s side. By then, Lu Jingchen was back with the Lu Family, but since Li Man and Murong Rui became close friends, they’ve met a few times. However, Lu Jingchen felt nothing special for Li Man.

Now that Li Man directly mentioned her mother, Lu Jingchen naturally found it hard to refuse.

Seeing Lu Jingchen nod, the discomfort Li Man felt in the shop quickly melted away. Her voice was sweet and tender, yet not annoying, "Thank you, Jingchen Ge." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Lu Jingchen said nothing and turned towards the driver’s seat, still holding the bag of freshly packed breakfast, his deep, dark eyes showing no emotion.

Li Man saw Lu Jingchen turn and get in the car, hurriedly following suit. But she didn’t open the rear door; instead, she chose the front passenger seat.

Lu Jingchen noticed Li Man sitting in the front passenger seat, furrowing his brows, but said nothing. He glanced back at Song Qiao, who was resting with her eyes closed, and tightened his lips, his jaw visibly tense.

Due to her pregnancy, Song Qiao was becoming more drowsy. She planned to rest her eyes for a moment, but unwittingly drifted into sleep. Just as she fell asleep, she heard the excited conversation from Li Man in the front passenger seat with Lu Jingchen, making her inexplicably irritated.

Her beautiful eyes suddenly opened, landing on Li Man’s profile, and she spoke coldly, "Can you be quiet? If you keep talking, get out of the car!"

As soon as she got in, Li Man kept talking nonstop. Lu Jingchen occasionally responded but paid little attention. Who would have thought this woman could happily chat away by herself?

Unbelievable!

After getting pregnant, her temper naturally became more volatile, a common trait among pregnant women. So Song Qiao’s tone with Li Man wasn’t very pleasant.

Li Man heard Song Qiao’s cold reprimand and was momentarily stunned. When she turned to look at the woman in the back seat, she was met with icy, angry eyes, making her throat tighten, unsure of how to respond.

The car stopped at a red light, and it was only then that Li Man realized what happened, instinctively looking at Lu Jingchen beside her. After hesitating for a long time, she finally asked, "Jingchen Ge, did I do something wrong? Is that why your wife hates me so much?"

Her eyes suddenly reddened, appearing pitiful as she looked at Lu Jingchen.

Song Qiao almost wanted to laugh when she saw her expression, especially after hearing what she said.

Damn, it sounds like she was bullied... But this seemingly frail and pitiful look isn’t it the easiest to evoke sympathy from men?

Thinking of this, Song Qiao subtly raised an eyebrow, looking at Lu Jingchen, curious to see if he would blame her because of this woman.

If he were to do that, she would immediately open the door, hail a cab to the film set, and not stay in this car any longer.
