My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me
Chapter 1166 - Chapter 1166 Chapter 1168 Threat (6)

Chapter 1166: Chapter 1168: Threat (6) Chapter 1166: Chapter 1168: Threat (6) This meeting was their first since the incident occurred. Qin Zhigu sneaked a glance at Lu Weixi, whose expression was calm, nothing like someone who had been cyber-bullied to the point of death threats. Although Paul was a bit odd, he knew about Qin Zhigu’s situation and now purposefully said with a laugh, “I must thank Miss Lu. Simon mentioned that you were very professional at your job, and I was a bit skeptical. But during this period of collaboration, Miss Lu indeed arrived very early and left late, conscientious and responsible in her work, and our arguments were also very hearty. I hope we can work again in the future.”

Lu Weixi knew he was teasing and just smiled, “I would rather not cooperate with you again. I’ve had to consume several more bags of throat lozenges because of working with you this past month.”

Hearing their conversation, Qin Zhigu breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to argue with Paul and still completing the work on time was a relief. He knew Paul was extremely serious about his work and never made judgments lightly. If he could say that working with Lu Weixi was pleasant, then it truly must have been, with no fluff added.

Perhaps this time, Lu Weixi wasn’t much affected after all.

Normally, at the end of a project, a farewell dinner is arranged, and today was no exception. Lu Weixi knew that people from the museum were generally agreeable, but now with Qin Zhigu around, and having been recently informed about their mutual grievances, there were people looking their way.

Because of this, Lu Weixi acted even more calmly. Right now, she didn’t want to interact with anyone from the entire Qin family, let alone Qin Zhigu and Qin Zhiyou. Recently, her lawyer had messaged her, notifying her that the divorce had been filed in court and advising her to wait at home for the hearing date. After the divorce, she would completely sever ties with the Qin family, and they would not be able to drag her into any messy situations.

But while she was calm, Qin Zhigu might not have been. Especially as they were preparing to go eat, Lu Weixi received a phone call from her caregiver, “Miss Lu, you better come quickly. There are a lot of reporters outside the hospital room!”

It didn’t take a genius to figure out that this was the Cai Family’s doing!

Recently, Lu Weixi had been busy with the divorce, moving her belongings, her mother’s hospital discharge, and work, without taking any initiative to expose the Cai Family. Now, they had brought trouble to her doorstep!

Lu Weixi didn’t care much about her own circumstances, but when her mother was involved, it was an extremely serious matter; she immediately rolled up her sleeves and was ready to dash over. Qin Zhigu hesitated for barely a second before saying, “I’ll go with you.”

Lu Weixi didn’t agree, but knowing there was a dinner where she might have had a few drinks since she hadn’t driven, Qin Zhigu offered, “I drove here, take my car.”

Without much thought, and with reporters at the hospital and her mother never having faced the media before, time was of the essence, she couldn’t afford to hesitate.

So, she nodded, got into Qin Zhigu’s car, and they swiftly reached the hospital.

At the hospital, the situation was even more chaotic than she had imagined, with not only reporters but Dr. Zhao maintaining order at the door. Seeing Qin Zhigu accompany her, Zhao Zihuan was momentarily stunned, but soon, other reporters also spotted the two rushing over and swarmed them like flies.

“Miss Lu, why are you with Qin Zhigu today?”

“Miss Lu, were the rumors of you and Qin Zhigu still being entangled true?”

Lu Weixi had no interest in addressing these gossips; she needed to ensure her mother was alright. Qin Zhigu was also not adept at handling gossip; his only response was silence.

At the height of the commotion, suddenly someone shouted, “Qin Zhiyou is here!”
