Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 127: Chapter 127 Lu Xiao

Who he was referring to, Leng Yixing understood.

In the military, there was only obedience to orders, even if contact was possible, he could not reach out. "I’ll try to handle it before he gets back, don’t worry about it."

But Zhuang Shuqing couldn’t help giving a bitter smile. She was not a fool; the expression on Leng Yixing’s face had already betrayed him. This incident appeared to be an ordinary traffic accident, but if one were to delve into the responsibility, it might well ruin someone’s life.

Leng Yixing went back to deal with the issue, and by the time Qin Huaixin returned, the person was already gone.

She thought about it and asked Qin Huaixin to go back as well, after all, she was a young lady from a wealthy family, and it didn’t seem right to have her stay in such a cramped and damp detention room.

At first, Qin Huaixin was reluctant, but in the end, after Zhuang Shuqing’s repeated insistence, she left with a mix of concern and helplessness...

Lying on the cold and hard small bed, Zhuang Shuqing reviewed the whole incident, down to the minute details, and only after confirming there were no mistakes did she breathe a sigh of relief.

That night, she had an uneasy sleep. In her dream, she saw Lu Jinyang rush out of the flames towards her; she tried hard to run toward him but found her feet as heavy as a thousand pounds, unable to move an inch no matter how hard she tried.

It was at this point she suddenly awoke, realizing then that she was drenched in sweat.

Zhuang Shuqing looked out the window. Through the glass, she could see the sky growing light, and she lost all desire to sleep.

Lu Jinyang, are you alright?

No.9 Mansion

When Leng Yixing and Gu Chen walked out of the VIP box, they bumped into a man.

At a glance, Leng Yixing felt a sense of displeasure.

This man had a face somewhat similar to Lu Jinyang’s, and although handsome, he wasn’t even one ten-thousandth as good-looking as Lu Jinyang.

Seeing them coming out, the man waiting by the door walked up to them in surprise, "Yo, if it isn’t A-Xing and my bro Chen, long time no see, you guys just keep getting more handsome."

Leng Yixing disdainfully eyed the sycophant, feeling a bit of revulsion. He ignored the man and continued walking past with Gu Chen without a sideways glance.

"Hey, wait up, A-Xing, bro Chen, wait for me."

However, Leng Yixing and Gu Chen quickened their pace, completely ignoring him.

Watching their backs, the man showed a sinister smile, "Leng Yixing, Gu Chen, with Lu Jinyang not around, let’s see how high you can jump."

Behind him, a young man looking like a lackey stepped forward, puzzled, "Bro Xiao, they ignored you, why are you still smiling so happily?"

"Cut the crap, which eye of yours sees me happy?"

"Right, right, you’re not happy, but you’re not upset either," the lackey retorted, clearly having come to block their way on purpose only to be coldly snubbed, yet here he was, still able to smile.

Lu Xiao cast an inscrutable glance at him and then started walking away, "It’s tough being broke. Just got back to the country and already spent so much money. Come on, let’s figure out a way to save some."

...

Leng Yixing and Gu Chen came together to see Zhuang Shuqing. Seeing her in better condition than yesterday, Leng Yixing let out a huge sigh of relief. No one noticed that from the moment he walked in, he began to look around, as if searching for something.

Seeing the two of them coming, Zhuang Shuqing was not surprised, and she said to Gu Chen, "President Gu, I am sorry, ever since I took this job, I never really showed up for work. Once this problem is resolved, I will definitely devote myself to my job."

Hearing this, Gu Chen smiled indifferently, "Madam Boss, it’s fine to call me President Gu, but if you don’t want to go to work, no one can force you to."

Zhuang Shuqing pulled a faint smile, not in the mood to joke at the moment.
