Chapter 342 - 343: Wife Opens the Door (4)
Qin Zhiyou recently felt that his wife was somewhat cold towards him.
Such as during breakfast, he would cheerfully talk to her, only for her to ignore him and respond with a detached hum at most. When they got into the car together, he would take advantage of the turns to lean towards her, but she would silently shrink into the corner, not speaking at all despite him squishing close.
When they got into the bedroom at night, she didn’t reject his closeness but didn’t cooperate either. No matter how wild he acted, she was lazy and didn’t say anything. If he provoked her, she coldly brushed off his hand and retreated with a face of indifference.
Qin Zhiyou thought over it and realized it might be because of the excessive commotion in the cleaning room recently, provoking the “bad records” of his past. He had indeed behaved for a few days when coincidentally a national demonstration zone project was starting. Even with the assistance of senior managers, he was so busy that he didn’t go home for several days.
It was the same with Lu Weixi. Once she began working, she would overlook a lot of things. On top of that, the medical team from America had finally arrived in China, so Lu Weixi spent her free time accompanying them at the hospital.
Every time she went to the hospital, she would run into Zhao Zihao. Seeking consultations from American experts essentially amounted to distrusting his medical skills. Although Lu Weixi herself felt a bit awkward about it, Zhao Zihao didn’t show any signs of resentment and still spoke and laughed with her.
She knew well about her mother’s illness too. For a medium-stage cancer patient, being able to keep the cancer from spreading and the lesion from enlarging was already very good. A complete cure was almost impossible unless the medical field discovered a new method for curing cancer, no matter how many experts were consulted.
Today, after the acceptance of a business deal, Lu Weixi drove to the hospital on her way. She first chatted with her mother for a while. Lu Weixi tactfully didn’t mention Bai Changyou’s return.
But when she was about to leave, she saw a magazine on her mother’s bedside table, one she had subscribed to for her mother to pass time. On it were a few words “Rural paradise, Bai Family design”. Her complexion slightly changed, she picked up the magazine and turned it open according to the table of contents, and sure enough, there were introductions to the Bai Family and Bai Changyou.
No wonder when she came today, Zhao Zihao mentioned that her mother’s condition had fluctuated recently. It turns out she already knew.
Lu’s mother, however, was calm: “It’s okay. It’s been so many years, what else can’t I figure out? I just worry about you. As long as you are living well, I can let everything go.”
“Mom, don’t worry.” Lu Weixi, a bit choked up, talked about her recent work before leaving, about how well she was regarded, and only left after saying all the good things.
Lu’s mother shook her head, ‘If you were really doing well, why didn’t you mention anything about you and Qin Zhiyou.’ But if her daughter didn’t bring it up, she wouldn’t ask.
However, Lu Weixi’s work performance has been off lately. After leaving the hospital, during a red-light stop, she answered a call via Bluetooth hands-free. Xiaochen had been talking for a while on the other end, but she was feeling blank. It wasn’t until after the light turned green and the cars behind her had honked for a long time before she stepped on the gas and drove off.
Only when she stopped by the roadside did she connect to Xiaochen’s call. After discussing work, she suddenly realized, how did she end up parked under the Hanhai Group building!
At this moment, in the CEO’s office of Hanhai, Qin Zhiyou was facing a woman – Fang Rushuang.
