This assistant was Lu Jinnan's number two assistant. Usually, he only helped to take care of Lu Jinnan's daily affairs …
He was asked to handle Hong Jinyun's matter because Lu Jinnan had left his personal assistant in the Kaide Corporation to help him handle some daily affairs.
Lu Jinnan had never understood his number two assistant's ability. Asking him to handle Hong Jinyun's matter was also a test and training. But if this was his ability, then Lu Jinnan was planning to replace him!
"Jinnan …" There was a pleading tone in Hong Jinyun's weak voice as she pretended to plead for the assistant. "Actually, this has nothing to do with your assistant. He didn't tell me about the hospital and even advised me not to come. It was me who couldn't get over it, so I wanted to bring my mother over to apologize!"
Hearing Hong Jinyun's words, the assistant understood what Hong Jinyun was up to.
He had stopped Hong Jinyun the last time, but this time, Hong Jinyun still couldn't hold it in and went to the hospital?
It seemed like without Mr. Lu's financial support, Hong Jinyun wasn't doing very well!
The assistant spoke slowly, not appreciating Hong Jinyun's kindness. He easily revealed what had happened back then. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu. On the night that Mrs. Lu and your father-in-law were hospitalized, I bumped into Miss Hong and her mother, Madam Li, who were going to apologize. I stopped the two of them at the elevator! I didn't tell you about this because I thought I'd already settled it!"
Hong Jinyun's palms were sweaty. She nodded at Lu Jinnan. "Mm, we were here! I brought my mother over to apologize on the night that the accident happened, but we were too anxious and it was too late, so we didn't disturb them and went back first!"
Hong Jinyun spoke very slowly with a hint of sincerity in her tone.
The assistant on the other end of the line almost laughed coldly. He had always thought that Hong Jinyun's mother was a liar, but he hadn't expected Hong Jinyun to be the same!
Since that was the case, the assistant didn't plan on saving Hong Jinyun any face. He directly said, "But Mr. Lu, I've already made it very clear to the two of them that the best way for them to express their apologies is to not appear in front of Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu's father. Otherwise, people will think that they have ulterior motives. They might think that they know that Mrs. Lu's child is fine and want to come over to anger Mrs. Lu and harbor ill intentions towards the child in Mrs. Lu's womb. I've already made it clear. If they still go over, Mr. Lu, you must consider the intentions of this Miss Hong and Miss Hong's mother!"
Hong Jinyun looked nervously at Lu Jinnan and shook her head. "No, Jinnan. I'm sincerely here to apologize to Mrs. Bai Xiaolu. I also want to personally see Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu's father safe and sound. Only then can I feel at ease! This is my mother's fault. This is indisputable!"
"Come and handle it right away!" Lu Jinnan said to his assistant on the other end of the line.
"Yes sir, I'll be right there."
Seeing Lu Jinnan hang up leisurely, Hong Jinyun's throat felt sore and choked up. "Jinnan, you know me! I really don't have ulterior motives like what your assistant said. I'm just here to see Mrs. Lu's father and Lu!"
"Miss Hong!" Lu Jinnan looked at Hong Jinyun, his expression so cold that it made one's heart turn cold. "You don't have to explain to me what kind of person you are. I'm not interested!"
Lu Jinnan then gently held Bai Xiaonian's hand. "You don't have to come to me to gain sympathy. I'm a cold-blooded person. Your mother made a scene at my father-in-law's place, causing him to be hospitalized. My wife was hurt. On account of the past, I'm only not sponsoring the two of you anymore. This is already a great favor to you!"
Lu Jinnan then took a step forward. Hong Jinyun was forced to take a step back by Lu Jinnan's sharp gaze, almost falling!
"That little bit of pity I have for you isn't enough to offset the anger in my heart. So, don't appear before me again, lest I lose control of my temper … and you can't even protect your mother!" Lu Jinnan's deep and cold eyes looked in Hong Jinyun's direction. "Do you understand?"
Hong Jinyun's throat choked. "In your heart, do you really think I'm that unbearable?"
"Let's go!" Lu Jinnan said gently to Bai Xiaonian. His gaze didn't linger on Hong Jinyun as he helped Bai Xiaonian up the stairs.
"Jinnan!" Hong Jinyun called Lu Jinnan's name.
Seeing that Lu Jinnan was really about to leave with Bai Xiaonian, Hong Jinyun's mother finally couldn't help but say, "Lu Jinnan, do you still have a conscience?"
Lu Jinnan looked over with a sharp gaze. "An ex-girlfriend who's been missing for eight years. I've sponsored her medical treatment, as well as an apartment and living expenses for her mother! Just like that, my ex-girlfriend's mother nearly caused my father-in-law's death and injured my pregnant wife! I'm already being extremely kind by not making you disappear from this world. Let me ask you in good conscience! If you say another word, I'll make you disappear from this world without you even knowing how you did it!"
Lu Jinnan was a straight man, so he didn't beat around the bush when he spoke. When he spoke his mind, it was like a sharp knife piercing through Hong Jinyun's heart.
Hong Jinyun's mother was also frightened into silence by Lu Jinnan's sharp voice. Lu Jinnan's eyes were as cold as thousand-year-old ice, causing the hair on Hong Jinyun's mother's back to stand on end. She was so afraid that she didn't dare to open her mouth again.
Bai Xiaonian saw that Hong Jinyun looked like she was on the verge of collapsing in disbelief. She smiled and said, "Miss Hong, didn't you come to apologize to me and to see if I'm safe? Now you've seen it!"
Hong Jinyun's lips quivered, and her eyes were filled with tears.
"Since you've seen it, please don't appear before me in the future. You're an eyesore!" Bai Xiaonian didn't pretend to be virtuous in front of Lu Jinnan. Instead, she said what she wanted to say. "To be honest, when I look at you, mother and daughter, I have the urge to hit you! I don't have a good temper, and I'm pregnant. Since I don't have any ulterior motives, I should avoid you!"
She then tugged at Lu Jinnan's hand. "Let's go!"
"Bai Xiaonian, you …"
Hong Jinyun's mother still wanted to say something, but she was stopped by her daughter.
"What do you want to say?" Lu Jinnan asked, his voice cold.
Hong Jinyun's mother seemed to have bitten her tongue. She pursed her lips and lowered her gaze, shaking her head after a long while.
"Watch your mouth!"
After Lu Jinnan warned Hong Jinyun's mother, he left. Hong Jinyun could only watch as Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan left hand in hand.
