"I've already signed the divorce agreement. I won't be attending our fifth wedding anniversary. I'll have to trouble you and Dad to …" When she wrote the word "Dad", Xin Yu felt that it was inappropriate, so she crossed it out and wrote again. "Uncle Lu said that there's no need to hold it anymore."
After she finished writing, she tidied up her things, took her bag, and prepared to leave.
However, when she reached the entrance and pulled on the bedroom door, her expression changed instantly —
She couldn't open it.
Xin Yu thought that she had accidentally locked the door. She twisted the doorknob again, but it still couldn't open. Someone had locked the door from the outside!
She quickly reached out to hit the door panel. Then, she opened the door and shouted, "… Is anyone home? Is anyone home? I want to go out … Who can open the door for me? "
…
After waiting for a long time, there was no movement outside. Xin Yu's heart couldn't help but beat faster. A terrifying thought flashed across her mind, but she still couldn't believe it. No, that's impossible. Lu Yihan wouldn't be so crazy as to put her under house arrest. Besides, what right did he have to put her under house arrest?
She quickly took out her phone. Because she had planned to come to the Lu residence to negotiate with them, she had specially turned it off. Now that she turned it on, there were two missed calls. Xin Yu only took a glance. One was from Qin Fangang, and the other was from Mu Chenchu. She didn't reply. Instead, she found Lu Yihan's number and dialed it.
While waiting for the call to connect, Xin Yu quickly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and happened to see Lu Yihan's car driving out of the garage. Her heart was in her throat. She reached out to open the window, but who knew that she would accidentally cut her finger again. She felt a sharp pain and hissed. Before she could open the window, the call was connected.
"Lu Yihan, did you lock the bedroom door from the inside?"
"You can't open it? If you can't open it, then that's it. "
Xin Yu was so angry that she was about to stomp her feet. She watched as the sapphire blue car drove further and further away. Soon, it disappeared in front of the iron gates. She said anxiously, "… What do you mean? Lu Yihan, are you putting me under house arrest? You have no right to put me under house arrest. Hurry up and get someone to open the door for me! "
"…"
The man on the other end didn't say anything and immediately hung up. Xin Yu's anger was still stuck in her throat. She didn't get a reply and only heard a short and cold beeping sound. She only felt like she had punched cotton. It was an indescribable feeling.
She tried to call Lu Yihan again, but he refused to pick up. Xin Yu wasn't the type to pester endlessly. She didn't know what Lu Yihan was planning to do by locking her in this bedroom and swaggering away. However, she knew very well that if Lu Yihan didn't open the door for her, no one in the Lu family would help her.
She had no choice but to call Qin Fangang. However, the moment she dialed the number, there was an endless wait on the other end. The call went through, but no one picked up.
…
Xin Yu was really anxious. She dialed a few more times, but there was still an endless wait. Her heart sank bit by bit. She never knew that waiting for the phone to go through for tens of seconds was so torturous.
Still, no one picked up. She didn't give up and dialed a few more times, but the result was the same.
Xin Yu was so angry that she threw the phone on the sofa. However, she was too impatient. After thinking about it, she still felt that it was wrong. She picked it up again and typed a message to Qin Fangang —
"Fan Gang, I'm at the Lu family. Something happened. Can you come over immediately? I've been locked in my room. "
After confirming that there were no problems, Xin Yu pressed the send button.
Her trust in Qin Fangang came from the bottom of her heart. In this situation, she also felt that only Qin Fangang could help her. She didn't want to waste her time here. The feeling of being locked in a room made her very uneasy, accompanied by an inexplicable fear and panic.
…
Qin Fangang … Qin Fangang … Where are you?
After Qin Fangang arrived at the airport, he realized that he didn't bring his phone.
Half an hour ago, he suddenly received a call from the UK saying that Qin Huimin was suddenly in a car accident and had been sent to the emergency room.
At the time, Qin Fangang had just returned to the apartment and called Xin Yu. Her phone was turned off. When he was about to call her again, he received a call. As soon as he heard the call, he rushed to the airport without stopping to rest. Only now did he realize that he didn't bring his phone.
He left in a hurry just now and left his phone charging in the living room. After receiving the call, he immediately contacted Ji Yang without even changing his clothes. He originally wanted to ask Ji Yang to send his passport over, but Ji Yang told him that his passport was with him, so he went back to his room to get it. After going back and forth, he even forgot to bring his phone when he went out.
Qin Fangang pressed his forehead with one hand. The staff at the airport had already informed him that boarding was starting. He didn't have time to go back to get his phone. He only wanted to fly from D City to the UK. If he took off now, it would take about seven hours under normal circumstances. He could only settle for the second best, which was to wait until he arrived in the UK to contact Xin Yu.
…
It was a seven-hour flight. Qin Fangang sat in the first class cabin. In fact, it was a very ordinary flight. He had taken D City to and fro from the UK many times, but it had never been like this, which made him feel uneasy.
On one hand, he was worried about his mother's injury in the UK. On the other hand, he was also worried about Xin Yu.
There was always a faint feeling of uneasiness, which made him feel uneasy. The boss of this airline had a good relationship with Qin Fangang in private, so he was able to get a ticket at the last minute today. Naturally, the stewardess here also knew him. During the flight, she came and went several times, asking him what he needed. According to his usual habit, she would also serve him specially prepared wine, but Qin Fangang didn't even touch it.
For a full seven hours, from the time the plane took off to the time when it landed, the most he did was frequently raise his wrist to check the time on the watch and pinch the bridge of his sore nose. His tightly knitted brows didn't loosen for a moment.
…
When the plane landed, it was already past two o 'clock in the morning in the UK. There was still a driver waiting for him at the entrance of the airport. He was wearing a suit jacket and a slightly wrinkled sky blue shirt. His handsome face was calm, but it didn't affect the calm and powerful aura around him at all.
He strode toward the entrance of the airport. When the automatic door opened, the driver immediately greeted him. "Young Master."
"How's my mother?" Qin Fangang reached out to pull at his collar. He felt very stuffy. It was rainy in London this season. It had probably just rained in the early part of the night, so the air was humid at this moment.
He frowned. He didn't like it very much.
There was still a hint of fear in the driver's voice. "… Madam is still in the hospital for observation, but she is out of danger. It's just that her right leg is a little fractured …"
"How did she get into an accident?"
Qin Fangang asked as he threw his jacket into the back seat of the car. He was a little absent-minded. Before the driver could reply, he immediately said, "Lend me your phone."
The driver was stunned for a moment. Qin Fangang explained, "I left my phone in City D. I have an important call to make."
Of course, the driver didn't hesitate. He quickly took out his phone, but when Qin Fangang was about to make the call, he scratched his head in embarrassment. "… Young Master, this … This number is local in the UK, but I don't have international roaming. I guess you can't call back to City D."
Qin Fangang was speechless. "…"
He returned the phone to the driver and went straight to the back seat. "Drive to the hospital first."
The driver put the phone away and quickly got into the car. As he restarted the engine, he answered Qin Fangang's question.
"… Madam was going to buy a birthday cake for Miss Situ this afternoon. I don't know what happened, but when she was crossing the road, she didn't see the red light and was hit by a car. At the time, everyone at home was scared. Madam fainted on the spot, so we informed you, Young Master."
Qin Fangang looked at the rapidly passing street outside the car window. He only felt frustrated. The driver intermittently told him about recent events. Qin Huimin had been very unhappy because they had already arrived at the door, but because of Xin Yu's incident, they suddenly had to turn back. His health wasn't particularly good, and he often suffered from insomnia at night.
Qin Fangang felt very guilty. When he was in the UK, at least he was with his mother every day and knew her well. But now, he was thousands of miles away, and he only came back two or three times a month. When something happened to her, he had to fly back …
— — Should he hurry up and carry out his plan?
He couldn't continue like this. His mother had undergone surgery, so her health wasn't as good as a normal person's. He had to stay by her side to feel at ease. But when he thought about Xin Yu … and the Lu family, so many things, he hesitated. Even if he forcefully took his mother back now, when they arrived in D City, more problems would definitely arise.
…
On the way back, this thought kept rolling around in his mind, but he couldn't grasp the main point.
It took about 20 minutes to get from the airport to the hospital. Qin Fangang thought that now that he was in the UK, he should solve the problem with his mother first. Moreover, what Lu Yihan had said previously was still a small knot in his heart. He had always respected his mother, but he didn't want Xin Yu to suffer in the slightest.
Maybe this time, he could let his mother know first.
He estimated that it should be noon in D City right now. If Xin Yu returned to the apartment, she should see his phone. If she asked Ji Yang, she should know that he had something to do in the UK at the last minute …
It shouldn't be too much of a problem to contact her later.
"… Young Master, Madam is in the ward on the sixth floor. I'll take you up."
