Chapter 190: 193 Return to Anlin

"What?"

Lu Ziqing exclaimed in surprise.

Song Lili chuckled, "What’s surprising? It’s good to be ambitious, what if it comes true?"

Lu Ziqing took a deep breath. Although Song Lili’s stepmother’s ambition was indeed grand, he found it more draining than amusing.

The Lu Family was also a major household in Anlin, and he himself had come from Anlin City. What was Anlin like, this bustling capital with its beautiful façade, hiding how much political strife, business strife, and struggles among the elite?

Just hearing Song Lili say this, Lu Ziqing already had a bad premonition...

"What kind of person is your stepmother, really?"

"Outwardly a virtuous wife and good mother, inwardly treacherous and complicated."

Song Lili spoke indifferently and casually.

"Living with such a person, you..."

"Brother Lu, don’t worry, right now they wouldn’t dare do anything to me."

"Right now they don’t dare, but what about later?"

"Later, they’ll be even less likely to dare."

Song Lili’s gaze was firm.

In that moment, Lu Ziqing seemed to understand why she had traveled all the way to Xilin to apply to Xilin Military Academy.

"We’re home, Brother Lu, I’ll go up first."

"Alright. Ah, I’ll drive you to the airport tomorrow!"

"No need, it will be more convenient for me to take a taxi myself."

Song Lili declined.

Lu Ziqing did not insist further, but he nagged once more,

"Once you’re back in Anlin, send a message to let us know you’re safe."

"Alright."

Song Lili waved at Lu Ziqing before turning to go upstairs.

Lu Ziqing sat in the driver’s seat of the jeep, lost in thought for a long time.

He hadn’t dealt with the Miu surname in a long time, and in his memory, wherever that surname appeared, there wasn’t much peace or comfort.

The country’s powerful families were becoming fewer, and more were like the Miu Family, turning to politics after gaining vast capital from business, their desire for money satisfied, they began to crave more power and status.

As for what Song Lili mentioned, the Miu Family’s influence in the military was indeed not to be underestimated; if people from the Miu Family became barriers to Song Lili achieving something, it would indeed be difficult for her to overcome.

Her stepmother harbored ambitions of being the President’s mother-in-law...

The more Lu Ziqing thought about it, the more troubled he felt, and that uneasy feeling associated with the Miu surname intensified!

He suddenly very much wanted to refuse Song Lili’s vacation, not letting her return to Anlin, that place full of hidden dangers!

...

Song Lili arrived back in Anlin at seven in the evening.

She hadn’t asked her father to pick her up, but he came anyway, and from a distance at the exit, Song Lili saw their family driver and spotted her father sitting in the back of the private car.

He was wearing a mask, occasionally coughing.

After Song Lili got into the car, Song Jiayu seemed a bit uneasy, "Was the journey rough? Would you like some milk tea?"

"Huh?"

"Aren’t you fond of milk tea? There’s a shop just past the overpass; I saw it on the way here... cough, cough..."

Song Jiayu coughed once then hurriedly stifled it.

Song Lili gently patted his back,

"Have you seen a doctor, what did the doctor say?"

"I went, there’s a lot of the seasonal viral flu going around, it’s not just me. I didn’t expect Xiangqiao to call you, to have you come all this way..."

Song Jiayu rushed to explain.

"Dad... between you and me... will our conversations always be like this from now on?"

"What?"

"Like strangers, like outsiders."
