Chapter 488 - 486: It Seems Like Assistant Leng is Somewhat Afraid of His Wife~
Xiao Qing had barely finished speaking when the door to the hospital room opened and a tall figure strode in. The moment he saw her, she could clearly see the tension in his demeanor relax.
"Did someone come by just now?" Lu Jinyang asked.
"Yes, he called me sister-in-law, said he was your cousin."
Upon hearing this, the temperature around the man dropped several degrees instantly.
Seeing this, Qin Huaixin frowned slightly, "Did Lu Xiao do something?"
"Yeah. He had someone tail me, making sure that I took longer on the road."
Lu Jinyang had not been out of the kindergarten long before he realized he was being followed. To maximize the time he spent on the road, those people tried every trick in the book, yet they still couldn’t hold him back for long.
However, Lu Xiao would probably find out about his regained sight soon.
Qin Huaixin was a bit surprised; Lu Jinyang had left before her but arrived later than she did. She had thought he was delayed due to some urgent matter, but she hadn’t expected it to be something like this.
"It’s Lu Xiao again! He’s like a bad penny! I heard he only came back last night, and he’s already got wind of Xiao Qing being hospitalized today. He must have someone in the country keeping an eye on you around the clock."
Lu Jinyang nodded in agreement.
With Lu Xiao returning this time, he had laid out such a grand scheme; it’s clear he wasn’t planning on holding back any longer.
It seems it was time to strengthen security measures.
Things were different now than they were a few years ago, with Xiao Qing and two children involved, Lu Jinyang had to reconsider his security arrangements...
Seeing Lu Jinyang deep in thought and silent, Xiao Qing cleared her throat and said, "Lu Jinyang, he left an invitation card; it’s on the table next to you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinyang looked over, picked up the invitation card and opened it. When he saw only Xiao Qing’s name written in the guest column, his dark eyes instantly narrowed.
Just her name alone!
What exactly is he trying to do?
At that moment, Lu Jinyang’s phone rang. He quickly glanced at the caller ID and answered the call.
"President Lu, Lu Xiao sent over an invitation card," Leng Yixing said on the other end of the phone.
"Mm, bring it to the hospital. Also, bring any documents that need my review."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jinyang sat down on the sofa to rest with his eyes closed.
The two women chatted intermittently.
After an indeterminable period, the door opened again, and Leng Yixing walked in carrying a briefcase, heading towards the man on the sofa without a sideways glance.
"I’ve brought everything, including the invitation card."
Lu Jinyang took the invitation card from Leng Yixing’s hand, opened it, paused at the guest column, saw his own name, then closed it and tossed it aside.
"You can go back now. And take your wife with you."
What?
Only then did Leng Yixing glance aside and noticed that Qin Huaixin was standing at the front of the bed, looking at him with a grievous expression. His eyes flickered; when he came in, he had only noticed the man on the sofa and hadn’t paid attention to the rest of the room, so naturally, he didn’t see Qin Huaixin.
Approaching her, he took Qin Huaixin’s hand and said to Xiao Qing, "Sister-in-law, we’ll be going now. We’ll come to visit you after you’re discharged from the hospital."
Without waiting for Qin Huaixin to reply, Leng Yixing led her away.
Xiao Qing couldn’t help but laugh, "Lu Jinyang, I’ve noticed that Assistant Leng seems a bit henpecked~"
Lu Jinyang glanced at her, offering no comment.
Downstairs
After getting into the car, Qin Huaixin felt a bit unhappy, "Qingqing and I still had so much to talk about, and you just dragged me away like that..."
