When his phone rang, Lu Jinnian's car was about to reach Third Ring Road. After the heavy rain, there were fewer cars on the streets, so he drove at a high speed. When he heard the ringtone, he didn't slow down at all. He turned his head to look at the caller ID. It was a call from Mian Xiu Garden villa.
Lu Jinnian hesitated for a moment, then exited Third Ring Road. He slowly stopped the car by the roadside and picked up his phone.
The cast and crew were on a three-day break. He knew that she would definitely return home, so he gave Madam Chen a call in advance to get her to prepare dinner. He also told her to give him a call when she reached home.
Madam Chen didn't know that Lu Jinnian was the one who sent Qiao Anhao home, so when he picked up the phone, she immediately said politely, "Mr. Lu, Madam is back, but she said that she had dinner outside, so she went upstairs without eating. She said that she was tired."
Lu Jinnian replied with a faint "Mmh". Just as he was about to hang up, he suddenly remembered that Qiao Anhao's hair and clothes were a little wet when she was waiting for a taxi by the roadside. He stopped himself from hanging up, and in a low voice, he instructed Madam Chen, "Go cook some ginger soup for Madam."
"Madam said that she wants to rest..."
"The ginger soup will be ready in a few minutes. If Madam is asleep, wake her up and get her to drink it before going back to sleep." Lu Jinnian didn't wait for Madam Chen to finish her sentence, cutting her off. He paused for a moment before adding, "Later, remember to raise the temperature of the central air conditioner. Madam was drenched in the rain today, in case she catches a cold."
"Got it, Mr. Lu."
Lu Jinnian thought for a moment, feeling that he didn't have anything else to say. After a few seconds of silence, he added, "Don't tell Madam that I asked you to prepare it."
Then he hung up.
After hanging up, Lu Jinnian was about to start the car when he suddenly remembered the question he wanted to ask the most.
Was Madam in a good mood? Was she crying?
He picked up his phone, wanting to call her back, but after hesitating for a moment, he placed it back into his pocket. He sat in the driver's seat, his hands casually resting on the steering wheel. Suddenly, the image of Qiao Anhao's tear-streaked face appeared in his mind. Honestly speaking, he had known her for more than ten years, and most of the time, she would either smile sweetly or silently hang her head. Occasionally, when she was unhappy, she would forcefully press her lips together. This was the first time she had cried like this.
As Lu Jinnian thought about it, he felt the pain in his palms, which had been soaked from her tears. The pain spread all the way to his heart, making him panic. He started the car and turned at the junction, driving back to Mian Xiu.
