"Young master, Madam doesn't want to see you right now. It's best if you don't stay here, in case her condition worsens."
Xu Jiamu moved his lips. "Auntie Yun, help me take good care of her. I'll come back to see her another day when her emotions have stabilized."
Xu Jiamu walked out of the hospital, but he wasn't in a hurry to get into the car. He leaned against the car door and lit a cigarette. He lifted his head and glanced over at Han Ruchu's room.
It was early spring in Beijing, and the wind was still cold. When it blew past, it was bone-chilling.
By the time Xu Jiamu finished his cigarette, his hands had already turned icy cold.
He threw the cigarette butt into the bin beside him and rubbed his hands. Just as he was about to open the car door, the phone in his pocket rang.
Xu Jiamu paused and pulled out his phone. When he saw the name on the screen, he was instantly stunned.
The phone vibrated in his palm for a long while before Xu Jiamu picked it up. He held his breath and raised the phone to his ear. He licked his lips and asked, "What's up?"
There was a moment of silence, then Lu Jinnian's voice came through. "Are you free at six in the afternoon?"
"Yes."
"Then, let's have dinner together?"
"Sure," Xu Jiamu replied, then asked, "Same place?"
"Yea," Lu Jinnian replied softly.
The two of them instantly fell silent. After a while, Xu Jiamu heard a knock on the door, followed by his assistant's reminder. "Mr. Lu, the meeting is about to start."
"Are you busy?" Xu Jiamu asked, then lifted his leg to kick the tire. "Let's talk when we meet tonight, you're busy."
"Alright," Lu Jinnian replied. After a while, he hung up.
Xu Jiamu put his phone away and stood beside the car for a while. In the end, he pulled the car door open, got in, and drove off.
Lu Jinnian was absent-minded the entire afternoon of the meeting. Every now and then, the love letter would appear in his mind. When it was his turn to speak, he would stumble a few times because of his absent-mindedness.
The meeting ended at five, so Lu Jinnian told his assistant to get off work first. He returned to his office and gave Qiao Anhao a call to report his schedule. Then, he entered the office break room and changed into a set of sports attire. He grabbed his car keys and headed downstairs.
They had agreed to meet at six, so Lu Jinnian arrived at the place they had agreed to meet at five fifty.
It was a private restaurant near the National Stadium. The lady boss was very friendly. There weren't many customers, but they were all repeat customers. The reason why he knew about this place was because Xu Jiamu had brought it to him.
Lu Jinnian parked the car and pushed open the door. It was empty inside, without a single customer. Standing at the counter at the entrance, the lady boss immediately put down the abacus in her hands. She raised her head and smiled. "Mr. Lu, you're here? Mr. Xu is already here. He's been waiting for you at the seat you liked to sit in for a while. "
Lu Jinnian nodded.
"Mr. Lu, it's been a long time since you've eaten here. Mr. Xu comes often, but he's always alone. I even asked him why you weren't here, but he said you were busy." Lu Jinnian walked around the counter and led him in, saying, "Mr. Lu, you haven't eaten here in a long time.
Lu Jinnian replied with a "Mmh", his gaze falling on Xu Jiamu, who was sitting not too far away. He had probably been here for a while, since there were two empty wine bottles in front of him.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Lu is here." Following the lady boss's words, Lu Jinnian elegantly removed his thick jacket. He pulled out the chair in front of Xu Jiamu and sat down.
