"… Master."
"Don't talk … Go out first and let me be alone."
Lu Shiyun waved his hand. The butler's lips moved and he wanted to say something, but Lu Shiyun had already sat down on the stool and closed his eyes. His heart was in turmoil.
There were too many things now that were beyond his control. What should he do?
It was fine if he couldn't control Leng Xinyu, but if he let Leng Xinyu go to Qin Fangang's side, this son whom he couldn't control from the beginning … Would things evolve to a point of no return?
Lu Shiyun closed his eyes and reached out to press his throbbing temples. This thought kept repeating in his mind.
The butler next to him wanted to say something but hesitated. Should he tell Master at this time?
Someone from the hospital had already sent word that Lan Ruoran was suddenly not in the room. They didn't know where she went, but the hospital's surveillance system had already been checked. Madam had been to the hospital before …
"… Master, the doctor …"
"I said, don't disturb me now. I want to be alone for a while. You go out first."
The butler finally swallowed his words and obediently left the meeting room.
Xin Yu was waiting in the office restlessly when her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the caller ID and saw the three words "Lu Yihan" on the screen. She hesitated for a moment but still picked it up.
"… You looked for me?"
Lu Yihan's voice sounded a little tired. Xin Yu listened to his deep and hoarse voice and softened her voice. "… Yes, I called you, but your phone was turned off."
"Xin Yu, I'm in France."
Xin Yu was stunned. She didn't expect him to go abroad. No wonder she hadn't heard from him these few days. But did he go abroad for business?
As this thought flashed through her mind, Lu Yihan gave her the answer. "I have a few projects on hand. I came over for business, but I didn't expect you to call me. Did you miss me?"
"…"
Xin Yu coughed and said seriously, "Lu Yihan, I'm calling to talk about a divorce …"
"Don't say it."
The man's voice on the other end of the phone deepened, as though he was suppressing some kind of inexplicable emotion. "… Let's not talk about it anymore, Xinyu. I've been here for a few days and I've been in meetings from morning till night. Every meeting lasted for a few hours. Just now, my phone was on silent mode and now it's a break in the middle of the meeting. I only have 20 minutes. When I saw your missed calls, I was really happy. This kind of excitement could sweep away all my negative emotions. So even if you really want to say something, don't say it now. Just chat with me for a while, okay?"
Xin Yu: "…"
"Have you eaten?" Afraid that she would suddenly hang up, Lu Yihan did not wait for her response and immediately continued, "It seems like it's time to get off work in D City. Where are you?"
"…"
Xin Yu really did not know how to continue the conversation, but the word "divorce" was stuck in her throat. She did not seem to be in the mood to say it out loud. She did not know how to describe this feeling. She felt that Lu Yihan was like a stranger to her, but she also could not bear to be ruthless.
They clearly had no feelings for each other. Why did they have to make things so complicated now?
"… Is it so hard to just say a few words to me? My question doesn't seem that hard to answer, right? "
Xin Yu's heart thumped, but in the end, she said indifferently, "… No, I'm not off work yet."
"It's almost time to get off work. I'll be back in two days." Lu Yihan's voice seemed to be gentler. Actually, he was also an outstanding man with a sexy voice. Now that he deliberately lowered his voice over the phone, it sounded especially gentle.
Xin Yu furrowed her brows. She was a little against Lu Yihan's attitude, but just like the saying, "Don't hit a smiling person." When he spoke to you in such a tone, you could not be sarcastic.
She resisted the desire to sigh and finally just replied with an "Mhmm".
Lu Yihan did not seem to mind her indifference at all. He even excitedly told her some things about himself in France. In the past, he did not do proper work and rarely managed the company's affairs. Now, he had slowly matured. The long meetings made him feel very tired, but he also said that he would feel very fulfilled after a while.
"… Xin Yu, come with me next time. Isn't this the city of romance?"
Xin Yu was speechless.
Fortunately, at this moment, someone on the other end of the phone called Lu Yihan. Someone probably asked him to go to a meeting. Xin Yu let out a sigh of relief. Actually, it was only about ten minutes or so, but she felt uncomfortable holding the phone. She hurriedly said, "… Did he ask you to go to a meeting? Go do your work. I'm off work. "
"Okay, I'll call you tomorrow, okay?"
"… No need. I'll talk to you when you come back." Xin Yu did not wait for Lu Yihan to say anything and directly hung up.
Looking at the black screen of the phone, she let out a soft sigh of relief. However, her brows were still tightly knitted.
From beginning to end, Lu Yihan did not mention a word about their fifth wedding anniversary. Xin Yu did not know what he was thinking about, but when he was talking to her, she wanted to bring up this topic a few times, but in the end, she swallowed it back down. After thinking it over, she felt that it was better to wait until he came back. Actually, those things could not be explained clearly over the phone.
What's more, Lu Shiyun's side was already in a semi-transparent state. When Lu Yihan came back, she definitely had to settle the divorce.
Xin Yu's mind was set on getting a divorce. However, she did not know that far away in France, Lu Yihan's handsome face was dyed with a hint of happiness because of her phone call. When the female colleagues in the French branch of the Lu Clan saw this, their eyes lit up with a hint of amorous feelings. They all whispered in each other's ears. So, the young master of the Lu Clan also knows how to smile. And he looks so good when he smiles. Asian men are really too sexy and too charming.
…
Xin Yu hung up the phone and looked at the time. It was already late. She walked out of the office and realized that the lights in the conference room were off. Did that mean that Lu Shiyun had already left?
Xin Yu turned around to grab her jacket and bag. Just as she was about to go to Qin Fangang's office to look for him, she turned around and realized that he was already standing at the elevator door. When he saw her, he smiled and waved at her.
Xin Yu looked around. At this time, there was no one around on the 28th floor of the Lu Clan, so she confidently jogged over to him. Qin Fangang grabbed her wrist and reached out to press the elevator button. As soon as the double doors opened, he pulled her inside.
Xin Yu could not wait to know what he had just said to Lu Shiyun.
"You really want to know?"
Qin Fangang raised his eyebrows. He seemed to be in a good mood. When the elevator reached the parking lot of B2, he pulled Xinyu and found the car. He got into the car and helped her fasten her seatbelt. However, he didn't say anything else after he started talking.
Xin Yu waited for a long time. The car was already halfway there, but Qin Fangang still did not say a word. She couldn't help but reach out to hold his wrist. Her actions unconsciously revealed a sense of intimacy. "Fan Gang, what exactly did you say to dad?"
Qin Fangang frowned. "You can call him by his name in front of me. I prefer it when you call him that."
"…"
"What are you worried about? No matter what I said to him, it's not the most important thing. What's important is that you have to remember not to let go of my hand. Got it? "
Xin Yu was indeed a little worried. Although she told herself that in her heart, things like emotions were not so easy to control. She couldn't help but ask, "… Does he know?"
"You think he didn't know all this time?" Qin Fangang asked in return without batting an eyelid.
Xin Yu froze for a moment. It was impossible for her not to understand the deeper meaning in Qin Fangang's words. But in the end, she was still surprised. Even though this thought had flashed through her mind, hearing it from someone else's mouth was a different matter.
"… You're saying that he knew all this time?"
Qin Fangang looked at her shocked expression and secretly sighed in his heart. He did not intend to continue this topic at this time, so he reached out and pinched her cheeks, gently saying: "Silly girl, don't think so much. I already said, these things should be left to me. Also, just now, what you said to him, I heard it all."
The change in topic was a little too fast. Xin Yu didn't react for a moment, so she blankly opened her mouth.
Qin Fangang parked the car in the parking lot below the apartment building. He turned off the engine and unbuckled his seatbelt. Finally, he reached out to hold the back of her head and kissed her deeply.
"…"
Xin Yu didn't expect him to kiss her all of a sudden. She made a sound of surprise and instinctively struggled. Qin Fangang directly hugged her waist. His slender fingers nimbly unbuckled her seatbelt. He lifted her whole body, spread her legs, and let her sit on his lap.
As soon as Xin Yu moved, she realized her back was against the steering wheel, and it was right in the middle. Even though Qin Fangang turned off the engine, he didn't pull out the key, so she pressed it hard. The horn blared, and it was especially ear-piercing in this spacious parking lot.
"… Um … Fan Gang, d-don't do it here … Someone, someone, will see …"
"The car windows are darker. The people outside can't see."
Qin Fangang loved this side of her the most. This side of her would only appear when she was in his arms and panting from his kisses. Those affectionate words passed through her ears and into her heart.
Xin Yu heard it very clearly. He said, "Baby, thank you for doing this for me. I definitely won't let you down."
In that instant, Xin Yu's heart ached. However, it wasn't because she felt wronged, but because she was moved.
In fact, she also wanted to say, "Thank you for doing so much for me." Leng Xinyu, who was bravely moving forward for love, was because behind her, there was Qin Fangang, who had always been pushing her forward.
