Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 487 - 485 Where is Lu Jinyang?

"Isn’t it said that menstrual pain eases after having a child? Why has it gotten even worse?"

Qin Huaixin didn’t give it much thought and immediately returned to her car, driving straight to the hospital.

-

When Qin Huaixin arrived at Xiao Qing’s ward, Lu Jinyang hadn’t arrived yet.

However, there was another man standing in the ward, the long-unseen Lu Xiao.

Qin Huaixin maintained her composure as she walked over, nodding at Lu Xiao when he looked her way, then she stopped by the bedside.

"How are you feeling?" she asked.

Xiao Qing’s face was somewhat pale, and she nodded, "Why did you come over?"

"I heard from your husband that you were here, so I came to check on you." Qin Huaixin glanced at Lu Xiao from the corner of her eye and noticed his keen interest in watching the two of them.

She flared up inexplicably, "Lu Xiao, with the man of the house not around, what are your intentions coming to his wife’s ward alone?"

Lu Xiao turned around, gently laughing, "Oh, I’d almost forgotten; back in the day, we were in a relationship with marriage in mind."

At the mention of the past, Qin Huaixin’s face fell. If it weren’t for his interference, would she have needed to flee? And all the troubles that followed...

Seeing Qin Huaixin’s unpleasant expression, Lu Xiao’s smile widened. He clicked his tongue twice, then turned to Xiao Qing and said, "Sister-in-law, it’s great that you can come back. After you’re discharged, you must hold a party to tell all those covetous women in the Empire that you are Lu’s true partner."

"Lu Xiao, are you suffering from amnesia? If I remember correctly, you are getting married in a few days. Why not announce this at your wedding?"

"Ah—right! Look at my memory," he said as he handed over an invitation, "Sister-in-law, this is the invitation I rushed out for you last night. You must honor us with your presence on the wedding day!"

Xiao Qing, expressionless, replied: "Just put it on that table over there."

Lu Xiao indeed placed the invitation on the table and mentioned that he had to leave due to other commitments.

As soon as he left, Qin Huaixin couldn’t hold back and asked Xiao Qing, "That man is scheming, Leng Yixing told me to stay away from him. Moreover, even if you are his sister-in-law, you shouldn’t be alone with him."

Xiao Qing looked at her amusedly, but deep down she strongly agreed with her words.

From the moment that man entered the ward, she inexplicably disliked him, and therefore mostly kept quiet while he spoke.

"I understand. By the way, how are the children?"

At the mention of the children, Qin Huaixin couldn’t help but smile.

"Your little princess is totally a fan of her sister, Shuang’er; although she’s only younger by two months. Yet she loves acting like a big sister and taking care of Shuang’er."

"Really?" Xiao Qing was a bit surprised, that was quite different from what she anticipated for a ’first day at school’ performance."

"Absolutely true! It’s just your menstrual pain, otherwise, you could have seen how adorable Xiao Bao is."

Xiao Qing’s smile froze on her face, "My menstrual pain?"

"Yes, Xiao Bao said your stomach hurt so you couldn’t take them to school, are you feeling better now? But really, to lay in bed all day with menstrual pain..."

"It’s acute appendicitis!" Xiao Qing interrupted her, "Although I am indeed on my period, I had surgery and I didn’t want to worry Xiao Bao by telling him."

Qin Huaixin suddenly realized, no wonder Lu Jinyang looked at her so strangely when she told him.

"But how did you get this illness? I’ve heard it’s incredibly painful."

"I don’t know, I passed out at that time."

Qin Huaixin: "..."

"By the way, where is Lu Jinyang?"
