Ni Xuexue was stunned, "Mr. Lu, I..."
"Miss Ni!" Lu Yinchu interrupted her with a thin smile, "You just said you believed Han Qing’s words? But, if I rember correctly, weren’t you and Han Qing best friends?"
Ni Xuexue’s face changed, and at this ti, the car had already stopped!
"Mr. Lu, let explain, actually..."
"No need, you don’t need to explain anything to about you and Han Qing. I have no interest in it!"
Lu Yinchu lightly brushed his shirt cuff, and continued indifferently, "Thank you Miss Ni for coming to tell all these. I have sothing urgent to deal with. I’m afraid it’s out of my way. Miss Ni, please get out of the car!"
Ni Xuexue bit her lip and defiantly pushed the door to get out of the car!
As the car door closed again, Ni Xuexue stood there watching the black Land Rover gradually drive away, so furious it hurt!
She hadn’t expected Lu Yinchu to be so insensitive. Where did she fall short compared to Gu Nanxi? He hadn’t even looked at her directly from beginning to end!
Damn it!
But, she was not a pushover!
A smile curved at the corner of her vibrant red lips: Lu Yinchu, Gu Nanxi, you wait!
...
When work ended in the afternoon, Lu Yinchu ca to pick up Nanxi as usual.
Having drunk too much at noon, he rested in the resting room for over two hours, so work was left unfinished, but that didn’t deter him from his desire to pick up Nanxi himself!
This ti, he parked his car at a more conspicuous spot. It was a white Phantom which he feared that Nanxi might have difficulty finding.
After all, compared to the black Land Rover, the white Phantom was much more difficult to recognize, at least for Nanxi.
He did not drive the black Land Rover because Ni Xuexue sat in it in the noon. As soon as he took the car to the company, he asked Mo Yan to take the Land Rover to the car wash. He felt it was dirty!
The driver was Mo Yan, who had drunk a lot at noon. Lu Yinchu always prioritized safety.
As Nanxi approached, she saw the car window slowly roll down and the door open from inside. Soaked in an air of unrestrained leisure, Lu Yinchu sat in the back seat crossed-legged. His figure emanated a mysterious attraction, captivating her gaze. All of sudden, he looked very eye-catching!
"What are you standing there for, get in the car!" His voice ca softly.
"Oh!" Nanxi returned to her senses and bent to get into the car.
Before going to the dinner, Lu Yinchu took her to a shoe store and bought her a pair of shoes.
Nanxi was a bit surprised and asked Lu Yinchu, "Why are you buying shoes?"
Lu Yinchu’s eyes softened as he looked at her, "I overheard at the company today that if a man buys shoes for a woman and puts them on for her, it ans ’walking together for a lifeti’. I think it’s a good sign!"
Nanxi was embarrassed, "Then sending nine hundred and ninety-nine roses also represents ’loving you forever’! We can’t count like this!"
Lu Yinchu smiled, "If you want, I can send it to you right now!"
Nanxi stuck out her tongue, "I don’t want it, it’s a waste of money! Moreover, what’s so good about roses? They are too ostentatious, I don’t like them!"
What she liked was sunflowers. Sunflowers symbolize sunshine, warmth, and a spirit of never giving up even in adversity!
These were words her father had told her, probably when she was very young. Anyway, from that mont, she had always liked sunflowers and had never changed since then.
...
Hospital.
Han Shaojing moved Han Qing to the VIP Area of the deluxe ward.
Han Qing was hesitant at first but Han Shaojing said, "You always like tranquility, and the environnt in the VIP area is better and suitable for recovery. I’m looking forward to you getting better and coming back to help at the company!"
An amused smile played on Han Qing’s lips but she remained silent.
Han Shaojing’s eyes flickered as he asked Han Qing, "What would you like for dinner? I can ask soone to order from Yipin Residence!"
Han Qing shook her head, "I don’t have any special cravings! Hospital canteen’s rice gruel is already good. I can’t quite stomach anything else..."
Han Shaojing’s fingers tightened in his trouser pocket, "Well, I’ll ask the special care nurse to bring it over!"
Han Qing just nodded, not saying anything more.
Han Shaojing ate dinner at the hospital with Han Qing. By the ti they parted, it had already turned dark outside. Han Qing saw him out!
Han Shaojing wanted to decline, but Han Qing said, "If I stay cooped up in the room any longer, I’m bound to get sick again, let’s consider it as going out for fresh air. Don’t worry, it’s okay!"
Han Shaojing decided not to argue further!
The hospital’s lights were sowhat dim, casting everyone’s features in a blurred haze, like looking at flowers through a fog, which made them seem hazy and dreamlike.
But this dreamy haze always ca with a sense of elusive weakness.
Just like Han Shaojing felt at this mont while looking at Han Qing!
Han Qing was wearing her hospital robe, with a coat thrown over it. Her long hair naturally blowing behind her head. Her complexion was slightly pale, but her expression was very gentle!
A breeze blew over, ssing up her long hair. Han Qing reached out to rearrange it, sighing, "The weather is starting to cool down. Ti flies. Unbeknownst to us, it’s already autumn!"
"Yes, I rember you once said that this is your favorite season!"
"Ha-ha, whether I like it or not is not important. What’s important is that whether it’s a season you like or not, it keeps passing regardless. In essence, there is no difference!"
Han Qing turned her head to look at him, "Right, we haven’t taken a walk together like this in a very long ti!"
"A long ti? Roughly, I guess!" Han Shaojing’s eyes twinkled.
"What do you an by ’roughly’? It has really been a long ti! It’s almost October now. The last ti was probably in April when the company signed a big deal. All departnt managers had dinner to celebrate. Everyone was quite drunk, so I accompanied you to sober up, and incidentally took a walk! Right, wasn’t there a departnt’s female manager confessing to you that ti? Such a morable mory, you should not have forgotten!"
Han Shaojing raised an eyebrow, "Is that so? But there have been so many won confessing to , how can I rember it all clearly!"
"Pshaw!" Han Qing scoffed, "Don’t make it sound so nice. Lots of won may have confessed to you, but I’ve yet to see you seriously date one for to see. Uncle Shiyi will be back soon, and he will definitely be urging you again..."
"If he wants to urge, let him urge! What does it have to do with ?" Han Shaojing retorted back, lit a cigar and started smoking.
"What does it have to do with you? You’re almost thirty-three now, and you ask what it has to do with you?" Han Qing exclaid, "Cousin, actually there are so things I’ve been wanting to ask you..."
The wind was quite cool at night, probably due to the weather. As Han Qing said this, she draped her coat closer around herself, resting her hands at her chest...
Looking like this, she seed to invoke protection!
But Han Shaojing knew, all this was just seeming so, because she decidedly did not need it!
