Chapter 811: Chapter 785 You are just a roadside stone
“She’s not getting naked, does it matter if her psychologist is male or female?” Xiao Qian was done arguing.
The public hospital hardly offered any lucrative benefits, Boss Qian was certainly not willing to go there.
“Do you even act like a doctor? Have you ever seen a doctor complaining about their patients? Why would they see you if they weren’t sick! With your cunning and crafty character, who do you think would willingly seek your consultation, aside from your own family’s Yu Gang (Egg)? Just go already!”
“Teacher, I too have my own life to live. I thought you had found a complex job, but it turned out to be this. I’d rather you send soone else, especially since you have so many apprentices. I want to tidy up the house. When Xiao Qiang cos back, I’m moving, now that I’m newly married…”
“Newly married my foot! You two have been sickeningly sweet for how long now, and you have the audacity to call yourself newlyweds? It’s been non-stop since a few years ago, what newlyweds!”
“Alright, alright, I’ll go. Stop nagging. Where?”
“The ntal Disorder Rehabilitation Center in Kaoshan County,” Professor Liu revealed the location she had prepared for Xiao Qian.
Kaoshan County is where Liu i’s foster parents live.
Bang!
Xiao Qian just managed to dodge a punch from Liao Fugui, only to have her teacher throw a kick right at her. It seed she had to go after all, as Boss Qian was once again cornered by her.
On Sunday, Xiao Qian got into the new car Fu Gui had bought. He actually bought a Cherokee as Liu i had wished, even though it was on loan.
As soon as she got in the car, she was hit by the nauseating whiff of love. Xiao Qian was so relieved that she had brought her eye mask and headphones along. The lovey-dovey couple in the front seat was particularly annoying, chatting incessantly. Sitting in the back seat with her eye mask and headphones, Xiao Qian pondered if it would be their turn to be all lovey-dovey if Xiao Qiang were at ho.
The journey to Kaoshan County from where Xiao Qian currently lived takes several hours. They set off before dawn, and Xiao Qian imdiately fell asleep. When she felt the car stop and removed her eye mask, she found that they hadn’t reached the destination, but had stopped on a mountain road before entering the county town.
“Soone ahead needs help,” Fu Gui noticed a few people on the roadside waving their hands incessantly.
“Could you give us a lift, mate? We’re headed to the mountain,” one of the n asked.
“What are you going there for?” Fu Gui would have agreed if there were no won in the car. Upon seeing several seemingly strong young n, he naturally needed to consider the safety of the two won.
“We’re not bad guys. We work in the nearby mining area,” one of them explained, pulling out his ID.
Fu Gui wasn’t sure if it was real or fake in the dark.
Once he checked it, it turned out to be genuine.
“What’s the matter?” Liu i got out of the car. The sky was not yet fully bright, making it hard to see people clearly. Her voice gave her away.
“Liu i?”
“Ma Lu?”
Xiao Qian in the car turned on the headlights, illuminating the scene clearly.
Ma Lu was standing there with two other n, looking quite haggard.
Ma Lu couldn’t believe he would run into Liu i here, especially after she had rejected him and was now with Fu Gui. Furthermore, Yu Minglang was the vice president of the Yu Clan, and his other identity was Chen Xiaoqian’s husband. All this information weighed heavily on Ma Lu.
“Ma Lu, what are you doing here?” Liu i asked in astonishnt.
Xiao Qian in the car propped up her chin, Oh my, this was getting interesting.
Ex-boyfriend ets current boyfriend, in such an unexpected scenario, it made her wonder what was happening…
As Liu i and Fu Gui expressed confusion over Ma Lu’s presence and fell into a silent exchange of looks, Xiao Qian had already begun analyzing in her mind why Ma Lu would be here.
Ma Lu had co to visit the Yu Clan. This county town was far from the Yu Clan but there were mountains, and considering that Ming Lang hadn’t been ho or called her for several days…
Oh, she gets it.
The Yu Clan must have a mine in the mountains, and Xiao Qiang must have led a team to inspect it.
Why would Ma Lu show up here…
The Yu Clan was probably recruiting workers, and that’s why Ma Lu was here.
But he just had to run into Liu i and Fu Gui.
The atmosphere beca awkward.
Fu Gui was the first to regain his composure.
“My car might not be able to accommodate all of you. If you need help, do you mind squeezing in the trunk?”
Ma Lu glanced at Fu Gui’s car, the brand-new Cherokee…
It felt as if he had been slapped in the face.
Looking at Fu Gui, he felt even more aggrieved. This man had “stolen” “his” woman and bought the car he had wanted to buy. It felt as if Fu Gui was deliberately stirring up trouble.
“I will not ride in your car, nor do I need your insincere sympathy.” Ma Lu turned his head away.
The other two exhausted n stared at Ma Lu in astonishnt. Was he crazy?
They had been lost in the mountains for the past two days while attending the recruitnt for technical staff. They were so hungry that they could hardly walk, and they were running out of ti. They had finally flagged down a car, only for Ma Lu to refuse to get in?
After Ma Lu said his piece, he was actually waiting in anticipation. He was accustod to being coddled by Liu i and expected her to coax him now.
“If you don’t want to ride, then don’t. No one’s forcing you. What about you two, do you want to ride?” Liu i had completely given up on Ma Lu; he now felt like a stranger to her.
“We-” the two young n exchanged glances, “We’ll take the ride!”
“Old Ma, let’s go!”
“I said I’m not riding!” Ma Lu was provoked by Liu i. How had she changed so much?
The two exchanged glances and decided not to insist. They were all tired from walking, and it was not easy to find a ride. It would be foolish to let this opportunity slip.
Liu i turned to get back in the car, and Fu Gui gave Ma Lu a sympathetic look.
Treating you well when dating you is good manners, but if we’re not dating, then you’re just a stone by the road. What’s there to be arrogant about?
“Liu i!” Ma Lu called to stop her.
Liu i turned around and looked at him calmly.
“Do you really have no regard for our past? Have you forgotten everything so quickly?”
Fu Gui couldn’t bear to listen any longer. Was he trying to guilt-trip Liu i? If people who didn’t know the situation heard him, they might think Liu i had cheated.
“I’ve forgotten,” Liu i replied bluntly.
Ma Lu was upset again. He couldn’t understand why won could be so fickle, as if they were two completely different people before and after.
