Chapter 406 - Please Keep It a Secret (3)
"Oh, I assure you. It's been a struggle for all of us." It was also surprising how Feng Tianyi could keep up with their twins and how he was able to help the two burn those extra energies, making them calm and relaxed once she got home from work.
The empress agreed as they came to a stop and found the kids entering their classroom with the other children before their teacher entered shortly.
Once they were assured that the three children were in the safety of the room, Tang Moyu took a seat on a nearby bench in the hallway, followed by Luo Qingqing.
"I take it that your daughter informed you about the invitation from my twins?" Tang Moyu asked.
"Yeah, Yunyun did." Luo Qingqing laughed awkwardly. "What a small world, isn't it?"
She rubbed her nape in nervousness. Even though she had already met Tang Moyu several times, she still wasn't immune against this woman's charm. Don't know if it was her imagination, but Luo Qingqing thinks that even with the empress's cold facade, she was still able to garner attention from people around her.
Seeing and meeting Tang Moyu again, this was certainly not that a coincidence. After several encounters with the empress, Luo Qingqing believed that they were destined to meet in this lifetime. As to why and what kind of relationship or connection it was, she had no idea.
"Hmm… I didn't think you would live here in Shenzhen. Are you from here?" Tang Moyu questioned her. Because of her profession, Tang Moyu thought that Luo Qingqing was staying in Beijing or Shanghai, where the popular entertainment companies were located.
"No. We are moving constantly because of my work." Luo Qingqing answered her. "We came here because I need to spend a few months working here for a new project."
"I see." Tang Moyu pulled out her business card and passed it to Luo Qingqing, who nervously looked around them, trying so hard to hide her face from people coming their way.
"You know by doing something like that, you are only making yourself suspicious to them, right?" The empress couldn't help but voice out her observation.
Luo Qingqing stiffened at her words. Was she really that obvious?
"You can call the number printed there. I expect your daughter to arrive by nine in the morning. You can pick her up anytime in the afternoon." Tang Moyu said before turning to leave.
"Are you sure it's alright? I don't want my daughter to cause you trouble." Luo Qingqing immediately followed the empress, who was ready to leave the place. She could only hope that her daughter would behave once she was at the empress's place.
Ah, she should have known that this school also caters children from wealthy families here in Shenzhen. The amount she paid when she enrolled her daughter here cost her an arm and a leg, but she hoped in her heart it would be worth it.
Luo Qingqing could only blame herself for not choosing to enroll her daughter in a normal school instead of this place. However, it was too late as this was already the third day of Yunyun attending this school and she didn't have the heart to part her with her new friends. The girl hadn't had any for a long time before this.
"It's no problem. My hub…" Tang Moyu stopped and corrected herself. "……boyfriend is usually the one who looks after the children while I'm at work. He's better than me at babysitting."
The empress, now remembering Feng Tianyi's words to her the other day, paused for a moment to give it a thought. She was really lucky that she found a man who not only loved her, but was also very supportive not only of her career, but her personal life as well.
The man had been a great help to her ever since their paths crossed and Tang Moyu couldn't imagine how the past months would go on for her if she hadn't had Feng Tianyi by her side.
The empress shook her head in an attempt to clear her thoughts. Why was she having these kinds of thoughts anyway? Was she seriously considering taking the relationship between her and Feng Tianyi to another level?
No. She didn't want to be married just because she needed it for Tang Enterprise. Maybe her mind was being clouded by the problems arising one by one, but she knew that she hadn't hit the bottom line yet. No, she wasn't ready to surrender and admit defeat to her 'mother', and especially not to that idiot, Feng Tianhua.
Sighing to herself, she adjusted her coat and looked over her shoulder to see Luo Qingqing looking around them, afraid that someone would recognize her and Tang Moyu. The best way not to garner attention was to act naturally, why did Luo Qingqing not know of this?
"I definitely think that you should stop acting suspicious. It's not helping us, to be perfectly honest." Tang Moyu commented.
"I'm sorry. I just couldn't help it." The actress muttered beside her. It was just her instinct, not allowing her to lower her guard whenever she and Yunyun were out in public.
"Is that so?" Tang Moyu took her car keys and unlocked her door, the beeping sound reaching their ears a moment later. "If you want to protect your daughter, you must prepare yourself for some possibilities and lower your losses."
"I'll keep it in mind. Thanks, Miss Tang." Luo Qingqing said.
Tang Moyu bid goodbye and answered her ringing phone as she slid inside her car and drove away. The actress could only watch the other woman leave. She sighed to herself and decided to also leave before she could attract any unwanted attention from others.
