Chapter 602 - I’ll Call You Mother (1/2)
Jinde wasn't happy with his stepson's behavior either. ”Qiu Ling! What are you doing here? Don't tell me you ran over from the dragon realm this fast! Could it be you just wanted to lure my husband away from here and were lying in ambush?!”
Qiu Ling stopped clamoring. Shit! He had completely forgotten that the old geezer was also here! He hurriedly looked around and finally pushed Fu Min away. ”You go and make sure that no spy comes close!” Then he pushed the door open and hurried in, slamming it shut behind him.
”Old geezer, I'm sorry! I forgot about you!”
Jinde's brows twitched and he hurled the comb Leng Jin Yu had just used to do his hair at Qiu Ling. ”Stop calling me old already! I'm your stepfather!”
Qiu Ling caught the comb, hurried to Jinde's side and gently placed it down again, nodding as earnestly as he could. ”I know, I know. If you want, I'll even call you mother!”
”Who wants to be your mother?” Jinde kicked the child away and looked at his husband, demanding an explanation. ”Just what is going on here?”
Leng Jin Yu rubbed his brow. ”I'd like to know that as well.” But this certainly wasn't just a courtesy call of his previous life's son. ”Longjun, why don't you sit down and tell us slowly what happened?” He motioned at a chair and sat down next to Jinde himself, gently taking his hand to make sure he wouldn't get angry. Ah, this wasn't how he had imagined this day at all.
Qiu Ling didn't need to be told twice. He sat down and looked at the two of them with sparkling eyes. ”I need your help!”
”I figured.”
Qiu Ling ignored the ill-tempered person and focused on his father instead. Don't kid him. The old geezer obviously didn't even want to listen to him anymore now that he had his father back. Being his stepfather or what not was just empty talk. In fact, he just wanted to look good in front of his father.
But since that was the case, why shouldn't he make use of it? His old man still owed him from his previous life anyway! He should better listen attentively and help him out.
”It's really very important. You know that the demon king kidnapped my Jing He, don't you?”
Leng Jin Yu did him the favor and nodded.
”I tried to get him back but that despicable bastard used Jing He to threaten me. And it's even worse! He didn't pay enough attention and there's a fallen god in his palace and now my beloved got kidnapped again!”
Leng Jin Yu furrowed his brow. ”You want to say … the Son of Heaven is currently in the hand of a fallen god?”
Qiu Ling nodded. ”Yes! So you have to help me free him!”
