YM778.TV Chapter 282: Forcing Him to Grow Up
Lu Lingche drove home.
Bodyguard Yu Fei reported to him, “President Lu, we’ve checked the City Hospital. The doctor in charge of receiving the young madam said that the young madam had indeed fainted due to low blood sugar.”
Lu Lingche frowned, “Just low blood sugar? There’s nothing else wrong?”
“Yes, the young madam’s health is very good.”
Lu Lingche found it strange.
If Qiao Yin only had low blood sugar, there would be no reason for Lan Yuyi to rush to City Hospital to see her.
The two of them weren’t exactly close friends.
But if Qiao Yin was really ill, it would be best for her grandmother to look after her than to go to any hospital.
So, was she really just suffering from low blood sugar?
“President Lu, should we continue the investigation?”
Lu Lingche shook his head, “Never mind, no need.”
He waved his hand to dismiss the bodyguard and went upstairs.
The absence of Qiao Yin gave the house the same neat and cold vibe when he was living alone before.
He used to enjoy this feeling, but now it gave him the impression of an unwelcome desolation.
When she was at home, he didn’t appreciate her. Now that she was gone, he realized her absence was out of his comfort zone.
He lit a cigarette and walked to the patio.
Suddenly, it began to rain outside, with lightning cutting through the sky and thunder booming loudly, brightening the dim house like daylight.
He felt a strange unease in his heart, as if something significant was about to happen, but he didn’t know what it would be.
The assistant came over, “President Lu, I’ve brought your dinner, do you want to eat on the first or second floor?”
Lu Lingche didn’t lookback, he exhaled a puff of smoke and said indifferently, “First floor.”
The assistant replied and couldn’t help but ask him, “President Lu, didn’t you quit smoking?”
“Hm.”
“Are you worried about the young madam? If you’re worried, why don’t you go and check on her!”
“I’ve already been there.”
“What did the young madam say, did she really get hospitalized just because of low blood sugar?”
“Hm.”
The assistant was puzzled, “Since the young madam is not seriously ill, why do you look so unhappy?”
Lu Lingche found it hard to explain his feelings.
He just sensed that she was drifting further away from him.
Though they hadn’t divorced yet, their marriage was dead.
Another bolt of lightning cut through the sky, followed by a booming thunder, intensifying the sense of unease in Lu Lingche’s heart.
He feared that he would have insomnia again tonight.
Previously, he never imagined that he would have to rely on sleeping pills for a mere night’s rest.
And the woman who could solve his sleep issues was merely a few kilometers away from him.
Yet, he couldn’t go to find her.
His mobile phone rang.
He looked down, Lan Yuyi was calling.
Despite his resistance, he forced himself to answer it, fearful of something happening to her, feeling guilty to his deceased brother.
“Yuyi, what’s the matter?”
“Lingche, there is thunder outside again, I am so scared …”
“Isn’t there anyone with you?”
“My mom got a concussion from Miss Qiao’s brother today, she’s also in the hospital, already asleep. I didn’t have the heart to wake her up. Could you come and accompany me? I feel terrible, I don’t even dare to close my eyes.”
“Alright, I’ll be there in a bit.”
Lu Lingche agreed.
He hung up the phone, extinguished the cigarette, and told his assistant, “Go to the Lu family house, pick up my mother, and we’ll go to the hospital together.”
“Yes, President Lu!”
The assistant quickly went downstairs to the car, thinking that the boss had mastered the art of dealing with Lan Yuyi. He was no longer willing to keep her company on his own. He had learned to bring Madam Lu along.
Lan Yuyi had really forced Lu Lingche to grow up!
He never knew how to use roundabout tactics before..
