Chapter 993 Truthfully, My Love for You Is Not Deep Enough
At the President’s Office of Lu Enterprises, Lu Boyan was handling an important document when he suddenly received a call from Mu Sijue.
If he remembered correctly, Mu Sijue was dealing with Xu Youning’s matter. There was probably bad news if he suddenly contacted him.
Lu Boyan picked up the phone. Before he spoke, Mu Sijue had told him everything that Xu Youning was hiding.
Xu Youning was surprisingly sick, but in order to save Tang Yulan and prevent Mu Sijue from taking the risk, she lied to Mu Sijue and returned to Kang Ruicheng at the greatest risk.
Even Lu Boyan, who was always calm, could not accept such unexpected news for a while. He stopped signing the document, and the ink on the tip of the pen fell on the blank space of the paper and spread out, dyeing the white paper black, just like their misunderstanding of Xu Youning.
During their stay at the top of the mountain for half a month, none of them noticed Xu Youning’s abnormality.
After a long while, Lu Boyan came to his senses and asked Mu Sijue on the other end of the phone, “Where are you now?”
“On the way to you,” Mu Sijue said.
At first listen, Mu Sijue’s voice was calm.
However, if one listened carefully, it was not difficult to tell that his calmness was maintained forcefully.
Lu Boyan could totally understand how Mu Sijue was feeling now.
Not long after he married Su Jian’an, he had trouble with her. Su Jian’an ran to City Z in a fit of anger and almost died.
While looking for Su Jian’an at the top of the mountain in the storm, Lu Boyan even thought that if something happened to Su Jian’an, he might not be going to leave the mountain.
Before long, Mu Sijue arrived at Lu Enterprises.
Lu Boyan got up, walked to the reception area and sat down. He looked at Mu Sijue coldly and said, “You come to me for finding a way to save Xu Youning?”
“That’s not the most important thing now.” Mu Sijue looked serious and cold as if he were facing a formidable enemy. “I need you to intercept a few people.”
Lu Boyan wore a look of confusion in his cold eyes. “Who?”
“I don’t know yet. I need you to check it out.” Mu Sijue spoke in a quick and concise manner. “Xu Youning lied to Kang Ruicheng and hid the fact that the child is still alive, but Kang Ruicheng knows that there are two blood clots in her brain and is ready to call a doctor for her.”
Something flashed across Lu Boyan’s eyes and he suddenly understood. “Are you afraid that the doctors invited by Kang Ruicheng will find that the child is still alive and Xu Youning will be in danger?”
“Yes.” Mu Sijue’s cold eyes slowly darkened, and his voice was full of killing intent. “I need you to help prevent these people from crossing the border.”
As long as the doctors Kang Jintian found could not cross the border, everything would be much easier.
It was a piece of cake for Lu Boyan to intercept several people, so he agreed without hesitation. “Leave it to me.”
Mu Sijue continued, “Now the problem is that we are not sure which doctors Kang Jintian will find.”
Lu Boyan raised the corner of his lips and said in a casual but firm tone, “I will make a follow-up survey. Not a single one will be left out.”
Mu Sijue breathed a sigh of relief and sat down. He relaxed his stiff shoulders a little. “Thank you.”
“Just remember that you owe me a favor,” Lu Boyan said, “and go and do your own business.”
Mu Sijue indeed did not have time to stay. He nodded and then left.
Lu Boyan put aside the unhandled documents on the desk and began to deal with Mu Sijue’s business first.
Mu Sijue’s happiness for the rest of his life was more important than the company’s business.
Lu Boyan made a few phone calls and made arrangements for it. In the end, he assigned tasks to a few of his men.
Next, they just needed to wait to see which doctors Kang Jintian would contact, and then would deal with them one by one.
As soon as Lu Boyan put down his mobile phone, the secretary knocked on the door and came in. Seeing that the unhandled documents were pilling up like a hill, she said, “Ah, Boss Lu, you may not be able to get off work on time today.”
Since the birth of the two babies, Lu Boyan’s aura of indifference to others had been much weakened, and the staff in the company occasionally dared to joke with him.
Lu Boyan did not say anything, but motioned for his secretary to put down the documents she brought in.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Lu Boyan finished the last document, put on his coat and left the office.
The secretary looked at Lu Boyan’s back and could only secretly sigh. “Boss Lu can actually get off work on time? He must be very handsome when he was reading documents seriously just now! Oh my God, my heart…”
Daisy rolled up a magazine and knocked on the secretary’s head. “Stop being a fangirl. Even if you’re a super fan, Boss Lu will not belong to us.”
The secretary got very disappointed. After a while, as if she had just realized something, she exclaimed in surprise, “Boss Lu has a wife, but his son doesn’t have a girlfriend yet!”
Daisy’s mouth twitched and she said, “Damn, Boss Lu’s son is less than three months old. It’s so cruel of you to rob the cradle.”
The secretary said solemnly, “You don’t understand what I mean. I just want to have a daughter and let my daughter date Boss Lu’s son.”
“You want a daughter?” Daisy raised her chin slightly and reminded her, “First of all, you need a boyfriend.”
“…” The single secretary was frustrated.
After leaving the company, Lu Boyan did not go home immediately. Instead, he contacted Su Yicheng first and made an appointment with the latter at a clubhouse.
It was inconvenient for him to do something in person.
However, it was convenient for Su Yicheng to do that.
After everything was done, Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng returned to Dingya Villas together.
Su Jian’an and Luo Xiaoxi were chatting in the living room, and the two babies were lying aside.
Xiyu was always quiet and cool, while Xiangyi seemed to feel that her father was back, kicking, waving, and babbling.
Lu Boyan did not even have time to take off his coat. He walked over and picked up Xiangyi. The little girl looked at him with her bright eyes for a moment and cried excitedly, “Ah!” Then she turned her head and buried her face in his arms.
Xiangyi laughed out loud as if she had found a harbor to rely on。
Lu Boyan had been busy all day and he came back with exhaustion. When his daughter smiled in his arms, he only felt that his tiredness was gone, leaving only a touch of softness at the bottom of his heart.
Su Yicheng came over and poked Xiangyi on her face. “Give me a hug?”
Xiangyi glanced at Su Yicheng, blinked her eyes, and hummed. Then she buried her face in Lu Boyan’s arms again and seemed to be afraid that Lu Boyan would leave, trying her best to hide in Lu Boyan’s arms.
Su Yicheng was so depressed. Was he inferior to Lu Boyan? Why didn’t Xiangyi want to get close to him as soon as she saw Lu Boyan?
Lu Boyan saw through Su Yicheng’s doubts at a glance and did not explain. He just said, “You’ll understand why as soon as you have your own daughter.”
Su Yicheng glanced at Luo Xiaoxi and raised his eyebrows. “Soon.”
He walked to Luo Xiaoxi. “It’s late. Let’s go back.”
It was rare for Luo Xiaoxi to obediently get up and leave with Su Yicheng.
After getting in the car, Luo Xiaoxi suddenly remembered something. She looked at Su Yicheng and asked, “Have you had dinner?”
Su Yicheng fastened the seat belt for Luo Xiaoxi and said, “I ate dinner when I was discussing with Boyan.”
“Were you talking about the matter between Boss Mu and Youning?” Luo Xiaoxi asked directly, “Are you sure to save Youning successfully?”
Su Yicheng wanted to give Luo Xiaoxi a positive answer so that she could feel at ease.
However, Xu Youning was in great danger now. Plus her illness… everything was unknown.
Su Yicheng patted Luo Xiaoxi’s head and said, “Don’t think too much. Boyan and I will find a way to deal with Youning’s matter. You just need to take care of yourself and your baby at ease.”
Luo Xiaoxi knew that if Su Yicheng did not answer her question directly, it meant that even they were not sure to save Youning successfully.
Was she really going to be received into the Church and pray for Boss Mu and Youning?
“Sit tight.” Su Yicheng turned to look at Luo Xiaoxi and reminded her gently, “We’re going home.”
Luo Xiaoxi nodded. Since the car started, she had been staring at Su Yicheng all the way.
Su Yicheng remembered that when Luo Xiaoxi started to pursue him, she also liked to stare at him like this. Even if she was caught gazing at him, she did not avoid it at all.
However, after marriage, Luo Xiaoxi seemed to have lost interest in him and rarely stared at him like this.
Su Yicheng had asked Luo Xiaoxi if her feelings for him were fading away day by day.
Luo Xiaoxi explained, “I’m not a pervert. I sleep with you at night and stare at you during the day. Even if you are rare and tasty food, I’ll still get tired of you…”
Su Yicheng deliberately twisted Luo Xiaoxi’s meaning and interpreted her words as that Luo Xiaoxi was already tired of him. In that evening, he adopted a few different postures and exhausted her. Luo Xiaoxi finally could not stand it anymore and begged for mercy, keeping saying that she would never get tired of him.
Even so, Luo Xiaoxi rarely stared at him after that.
Su Yicheng drove more slowly and turned to look at Luo Xiaoxi. “What’s wrong?”
Luo Xiaoxi supported her chin with one hand, with a casual look. She said with a sigh, “I think it’s so difficult for Boss Mu and Youning to be together, and we’re lucky. So, I’m thinking about whether I should love you more or not in the future…”
“…” Su Yicheng did not speak.
Luo Xiaoxi looked at Mu Sijue with interest and lifted his straight trousers with her tiptoes. “How about that? Are you tempted?”
Su Yicheng narrowed his eyes slightly. There was bottomless darkness in his deep eyes, and no one could read his look.
Luo Xiaoxi’s scalp tightened. She controlled her wording very well, but how did she offend Su Yicheng?
Su Yicheng gritted his teeth and asked word by word, “Xiaoxi, do you mean that you are still holding back your love for me?”
“…” Luo Xiaoxi was just focused on teasing Su Yicheng, and she never expected Su Yicheng to think that “her love for him is not enough” according to her words.
Damn, this kind of logic was against the rules in games!
Luo Xiaoxi coughed and organized her words in her mind, thinking about how to explain this matter.
Before Luo Xiaoxi came up with an idea, Su Yicheng had continued, “Luo Xiaoxi, you are dead meat tonight.”
Luo Xiaoxi hurriedly covered her belly and asked seriously, “Are you sure to threaten its mother in front of the child?”
Su Yicheng sneered and extinguished Luo Xiaoxi’s hope. “It’s useless.”
Luo Xiaoxi could not help mourning for herself. Tonight, she would not be able to escape.
