Ji Niandong grabbed her bag like it was a lifeline and quickly pulled out her phone to answer the call.
"Hello?" Her voice was slightly trembling.
But from the other side ca a sobbing voice: "Sister Tongtong, save ! Please co and save !"
"Lingling? What happened? What’s going on?" Ji Niandong stood up from her seat abruptly, her whole body ready for battle, incredibly sharp.
"Yesterday I returned from the hospital and had a fight with my brother, blaming him for not giving money for uncle’s dical treatnt. My brother was angry and locked in the room! Later, he ca back very late, seed to have been beaten up by soone, stord into my room, and told to call you. I refused, and he slapped ! My brother has never hit before!" Shen Congling cried out loudly, "He not only hit but also didn’t give food. I’m now both hungry and thirsty, and can you hear the noise? Linda and he are fighting fiercely, throwing things around. I’m so scared! Sister Tongtong, can you co and take away? I never want to see them again!"
She was crying so hard she was gasping for breath. Ji Niandong grabbed her bag and headed outside: "Sorry, I really have an ergency!"
She leapt toward the restaurant exit, limping, and Lu Beichen quickly caught up, grabbing her arm: "I’ll go with you! Tongtong, we are husband and wife now!"
Lu Beichen emphasized that she was no longer alone, and Ji Niandong nodded: "I need to go to New City Garden!"
Lu Beichen waved over Li Yi, who had been waiting outside for a while, quickly driving the car to them. Lu Beichen opened the car door, shielding the top with his hand, and said, "Get in!"
The car sped away, Ji Niandong kept her head down the whole ti. Today was supposed to be their happy wedding day, not only did she ruin it at the crucial mont, but she had to go to her ex-boyfriend’s house.
Ji Niandong thought for a mont and explained, "It was Shen Congjun’s sister Shen Congling who called , the three of us grew up in the sa neighborhood, Lingling is like my own little sister. She sounded urgent, and I don’t know what happened, I must go see!"
Lu Beichen’s face showed no unusual expression, he just nodded slightly, pulled her hand into his palm, and gently patted it a few tis.
He was telling her not to worry, and Ji Niandong understood his aning instantly, feeling even more guilty.
Li Yi, who was driving, couldn’t help but interject: "I’ve already warned that kid not to bother the lady anymore, but instead of doing it himself, he got his sister to call!"
Lu Beichen furrowed his brows and asked, "What did you do?"
Li Yi glanced back at him, "Boss, I just couldn’t stand it yesterday, so I sent soone to rough up that guy a bit. Luckily, we controlled ourselves and didn’t break any bones or limbs; I warned him not to disturb the lady ever again. Yesterday, the lady was crying at Beiyuan, I just couldn’t..."
"It’s fine!" Lu Beichen interrupted him, he hadn’t had the chance to deal with this underling, warning him with a beating couldn’t settle the matter of making Ji Niandong cry?
Li Yi instantly understood Lu Beichen’s aning; it seed there would be a good show when they got there!
"Li Yi has been with for so many years, he’s acting in my best interest, you shouldn’t mind, right?" Lu Beichen suddenly asked Ji Niandong beside him.
Ji Niandong shook her head, "I have nothing to do with him anymore, nor do I want him to bother !"
Having successfully delivered her into Lu Beichen’s arms, he had stopped interfering, so he was warned by Li Yi. She once viewed him as family, yet he was sending her to another man’s bed!
