Even though they tried their best to keep it under wraps, news still leaked out.
Xu Wanli had found out about the accident in "Heavenly Sword" when he was having a meal with an investor in the entertainment industry.
At first, Xu Wanli didn't know that Qiao Anhao was the one who got into trouble, so he took it as gossip. Towards the end, the investor tilted his head and whispered into his ear, "I think the person who got into trouble is your daughter-in-law. The production crew was afraid that the family would cause trouble, so they purposely kept it under wraps."
Xu Wanli didn't know if it was true, but when he got home, he still told Han Ruchu about it. Han Ruchu then called Qiao Anxia's mother, who then called Qiao Anhao, but no one picked up. Worried, she called Qiao Anxia.
Even though Qiao Anxia repeatedly said that Qiao Anhao was fine, that she was with Qiao Anhao, and that Xu Jiamu was looking after her, the next morning, Han Ruchu and Qiao Anxia's mother still took an early flight over.
It was evening again. His assistant opened the car door with the takeaway and got in.
Lu Jinnian sat in the front passenger seat, holding the phone that his assistant had bought at the electronics store in the afternoon. He was browsing through the emails from the company, and beside him was his barely touched lunch.
The assistant furrowed his brows, placing the takeaway in the car. Then, he took the lunch and threw it into the rubbish bin beside him. Sitting in the car, he said to Lu Jinnian, who was typing on the phone, "Mr. Lu, you haven't eaten for the whole day, why don't you eat now?"
"I'm not hungry." Lu Jinnian didn't even raise his head, replying with two simple words before continuing to type on the phone.
The assistant added, "Mr. Lu, Miss Qiao has someone taking care of her, she'll definitely be fine."
Lu Jinnian acted as though he hadn't heard what his assistant had said. He brought the phone to his lips and said faintly, "There's a problem with the contract, I've already marked out the parts that need to be changed. I've just emailed it to you, take a look and accept it."
The assistant, who had been ignored, raised his hand to rub his nose. Through the car window, he glanced at one of the windows on the second floor of the building. He couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart. When Miss Qiao was sick, Mr. Lu was the one who wanted to stay by her side the most, but unfortunately, Miss Qiao's fiance, Mr. Xu, was there, so Mr. Lu could only watch from the side. Who knew that Mr. Xu's mother would come over early in the morning, so he could only stay in the car. When it was finally noon, he found out that Miss Qiao was awake, so he excitedly ran over to tell Mr. Lu that he wanted him to rest in the hotel, but who knew that Mr. Lu would continue to stay in the car.
The assistant didn't say anything to disturb Lu Jinnian, and the entire car was silent. Occasionally, Lu Jinnian would speak a few words to the higher-ups of the company.
Night fell, and when the sky was completely dark, Lu Jinnian finally finished the work that had piled up over the past few days. Only then did he place his phone to the side and lean against the car seat. He raised his hand to rub his temples, and then through the rearview mirror, he saw his assistant sitting beside him. He stopped and said, "Go back to the hotel first."
