Daddy, Here Is Mommy: Volume 5

By Yao XiaoXiao

On the night of the coming of age ceremony, she was framed by her loved ones and became pregnant accidentally.

Four years later, she came back from the fire, messing up the wedding of her former fiancé and sister, stirring up the storm of revenge.

Unexpectedly, a noble and domineering man confined her to his arms.

"Vengeance, I'll take revenge for you. You only need to be at ease to be my woman."

Following that, a little jade doll ran over and hugged her tightly …

CHAPTER 401 - IT SUDDENLY APPEARED

A thought flashed through Gong Nanling's mind, the veins on his forehead jumped.

Could Uncle be injured?

No wonder Little Aunt was the one who answered the phone a few days ago. Last time, there was even a personal seal on the document. Did father feel that something had happened to his uncle?

As expected …

Nanling, are you still suspicious?

Lu Hengyuan looked at him coldly, lifted his lips and sneered.

Doubt?

Gong Nanling calmed his breathing and calmed his emotions. He stood up unhurriedly, curled his lips, and said with a sneer.

He walked to Lu Hongzhan with light footsteps and placed his hands on the conference table beside him. Raising his head and raising his eyebrows, he looked at the shareholders participating in the meeting. The light in his eyes was somewhat deep.

Everyone, do you doubt me?

Young Director Gong, no one wants to see something like that happen. But …"

Yeah. The truth is right in front of us, we can't help but believe it.

Deputy Chairman, for the sake of the future of the 'Wu Steel' Group, it's better to select a new chairman as soon as possible and complete the next step.

Gong Nanling straightened his body and stood still. Ye Zichen squinted his eyes and said seriously.

You're right, my grandfather really does need rest, and the burden on his shoulders should be lifted. But I think my uncle is the most suitable candidate to take on the position. Be it in terms of ability or boldness, he is superior to my first uncle. So, I nominate Lu Yiyao."

Gong Nanling, you!

Lu Hongzhan was flustered and exasperated.

Young Director Gong, I didn't hear wrong, right? Director Lu, isn't he …"

Director Lu's whereabouts are unknown, how can he be nominated?

Who said his whereabouts are unknown? Have you called him?

Gong Nanling smiled coldly.

Gong Nanling, what the hell are you doing?

When Lu Hongzhan heard this, his face suddenly became quiet. He was so angry that he wanted to kick him out of the meeting room.

Lu Hengyuan's handsome face was also somewhat gloomy, with a scarlet tint at the bottom of his eyes.

He hated Lu Yiyao, very, very much.

Since Gong Nanling was defending Lu Yiyao in such a way, he and Gong Nanling also started to hate him.

In his and Wu's view, Gong Nanling's move was tantamount to turning his elbow towards the outside.

They were his closest family.

After all, Lu Hongzhan and Lu Yixun were siblings of the same mother.

In terms of family, no matter what, he should stand on their side.

But Gong Nanling had grown up with Lu Yiyao, and was closer to him.

What can I do? I'm just a small shareholder in the group.

Gong Nanling replied indifferently.

Lu Hongzhan looked at him and felt a bit uneasy.

Gong Nanling, go back to your seat.

Lu Hengyuan raised his eyes and glared at him as he said in a cold voice.

Cousin, I naturally want to return to my seat. But uncle, shouldn't you also …

Gong Nanling, shut up.

Lu Hongzhan could not stand it any longer and scolded angrily.

Eldest Uncle, you're really angry …

Gong Nanling withdrew his face and eyebrows without a trace of fear. The smile in his peach blossom eyes became deeper. The more they thought about it, the more perplexed they became. What was he trying to do?

He paused, then continued.

Then after this, will you get even angrier? Haha …

Gong Nanling, you!

Lu Hongzhan was so angry that his face turned ashen and a layer of frost appeared on his forehead.

…

Gong Nanling narrowed his eyes and grabbed the laser pen in his hand.

On the screen, the breathtaking images disappeared and a snowflake appeared.

Gong Nanling, what are you doing?

Lu Hongzhan could no longer control the anger in his heart and stood up.

Uncle, you're already too tired to sit down?

You …

Lu Hongzhan didn't expect him to be so 'disrespectful', with each sentence poking into his heart.

I'll call your parents right away …

Uncle, how old am I? You're still complaining to my parents?

Gong Nanling's eyes revealed a hint of ridicule as he ridiculed.

Crack.

Lu Hengyuan slapped the conference table in front of him heavily. His handsome face was dark and his eyes were scarlet. The veins on his forehead were popping non-stop.

Gong Nanling, shut up immediately.

Hengyuan.

Lin Zhiyan, who was sitting beside him, was afraid that something might have happened to him, so she quickly pulled him up.

Cousin, you are a shareholder, and I am a shareholder as well. Our shares are exactly the same, so what right do you have to tell me to shut up?

Gong Nanling shrugged with a look of disdain.

You …

Anger burned within Lu Hengyuan's internal organs, causing him to tremble slightly as his teeth chattered.

Hengyuan, don't bother with him. Nanling is younger than you.

Lin Zhiyan consoled him in a low voice.

The shareholders present looked at each other, watching them as if they were watching a play.

Wang Shijie drank his coffee leisurely with a gloomy face.

Let them fight amongst themselves so he can reap the rewards.

Gong Nanling looked at the time and saw that there were still 10 seconds left before the appointed time with his uncle.

Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Hongzhan.

Uncle, are you not going to sit down?

Just when Lu Hongzhan was about to reprimand him again, the screen full of snowflakes flashed a few times and then started to emit Zi Zi sounds.

Gong Nanling, what are you trying to do?

Lu Hongzhan reached out his hand, wanting to take away the laser pen in his hand. Gong Nanling slightly leaned to the side to avoid it. Looking at the time, she curled her lips and said.

Alright.

Gong Nanling threw the laser pen on the conference table in front of Lu Hongzhan, smiled and returned to his seat.

Lu Hongzhan reached out his hand to turn off the projection.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yiyao's cold face appeared on the screen.

Director Lu?

He isn't?

What's going on?

All the shareholders present were shocked. Once again, they looked at each other in dismay.

Lu Hongzhan seemed to not believe his eyes as he glared at Gong Nanling and said angrily.

Gong Nanling, what the hell are you doing? Why did you bring out a picture of your uncle for? "

Photographs?

Gong Nanling couldn't help but feel it was funny, even his rebellious eyebrows were laughing in a straight line.

Uncle, have you lost your sight? This is clearly a video link, yet you say it's a photo? I really admire you. "

You …

Lu Hongzhan was speechless.

Lu Yiyao looked at the computer screen in front of him and the corner of his lips twitched imperceptibly. Gong Nanling's words were clearly heard by Ye Zichen.

This kid, his way of retaliating against others is getting more and more powerful.

His expression became tense as his dark and narrow eyes narrowed. With a serious and strict expression, he said.

Everyone, good.

Director Lu, are you alright?

What? Are you expecting something from me?

Lu Yiyao said coldly as he lifted his cold lips.

Even though they were separated by the screen, they could feel the cold energy radiating from his body.

No no, how could we expect anything from you? But …"

Some of the shareholders began to explain carefully, waving their hands.

But what?

It's just that first uncle said that you had an accident at Li City and your whereabouts are unknown.

Gong Nanling said calmly. His pretty eyes were filled with bright ripples.

CHAPTER 402 - INVERSION AND INVERSION

Gong Nanling, shut up.

Lu Hongzhan, who was still in shock, came back to his senses and shouted at Gong Nanling.

Uncle, why should I shut up? Wasn't today the shareholders' meeting? I'm also a shareholder and have a say …"

Gong Nanling, you …

Lu Hongzhan growled and gnashed his teeth in hatred.

First uncle, it's useless even if you call me? I've warned you not to sit down so soon. If you don't listen, blame me!

Gong Nanling had a devilish look on his face as he shrugged his shoulders with a playful look.

Say one more word, do you believe that I won't slap you …

Lu Hongzhan was angry to the point that his liver hurt. His ashen face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Hit me? It's something my parents don't dare do, you dare? Haha …"

Gong Nanling turned the chair under him, glanced at him and said provocatively.

See if I dare …

Lu Hongzhan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

This kid was clearly trying to bicker with him today.

What he did was probably related to Lu Yiyao.

So it turned out that he and Lu Yiyao had been in contact all along. He was actually in the dark and didn't know anything.

It was all his fault, he trusted Gu Anhe too much.

He thought that Lu Yiyao would definitely die in that kind of situation.

Who knew …

Uncle, you're here. In front of all the shareholders, you came to hit me? "

Today, Gong Nanling's temper also exploded. He finally vented out all the anger and depression he had been holding in for the past few days.

He could not understand why his first uncle would do that to his youngest uncle.

Even though he had been constantly suppressed by his uncle all these years, his uncle had never done anything to hurt him.

However, he wanted to overturn the heavens while his uncle was not around.

He could not help but feel anger and a chill in his heart.

Brother, you have to teach Nanling a lesson and go home. This is the company, so don't let the shareholders see it as a joke.

Lu Yiyao's dark and deep eyes stared at the computer screen in front of him. His stern face was completely silent. The clear and cold voice was like an arrow made of refined ice, piercing through everyone's eardrums and causing them to feel a chill.

Gong Nanling, you …

Lu Hongzhan's heart was in turmoil as he slowly lowered his raised hand.

The first meeting room suddenly quieted down, even the sound of a pin drop could be heard.

Lu Hengyuan saw Lu Yiyao on the screen and was so angry that his whole body trembled. His crimson eyes widened.

In an instant, the light in his eyes changed as a ruthless light flowed out from the depths of his eyes. He felt incomparable rage in his heart.

Lu Yiyao, you're not dead?!

All right, shareholders. I know that my father, Mr. Lu Jinhui, is a little unwell, but he hasn't reached the point where he has to retire. Many of you are old people who walked over with him. For you all to propose a change in the selection at this time, are you trying to add insult to injury?

Lu Yiyao sat upright with a cold expression. Skeletal fingers lightly tapped the table made of pear wood, and the sounds of knocking echoed to the shareholders' ears.

It was like the beat of a drum, causing one's heart to be slightly flustered.

The few shareholders who had previously said that they would support him by slapping their chests towards Lu Hongzhan began to look away.

Lu Yiyao frowned and spoke again.

Everyone, the the Lu's group's corporate culture is: Obedience is above all else. But not a word. What thoughts do you all have? Speak up while we're in the middle of today's meeting."

'the Lu's' Group's surname is' Lu ', but it is a common property of everyone, I think. No matter what decision you make, you are responsible.

Lu Yiyao's unfathomable dark pupils were deep and sharp. His thick black eyebrows were filled with determination and determination.

The supernatural aura was something that no one dared to look directly at.

A few short sentences caused quite a stir.

Apart from the first sentence, saying that they were currently proposing to change their selection was like adding insult to injury. The last two sentences didn't mention anything about changing the choice.

His words, however, were insinuating and greatly intimidated shareholders.

Even Wang Shijie didn't expect such a situation to occur. The scheming and scheming Han Li still had a shady, impassive appearance. His gaze was like a poisonous snake spitting out a red letter, looking at Lu Hongzhan.

Lu Deputy Chairman, Director Lu is fine, why did you say that he had an accident and his whereabouts were unknown? What is the purpose of making our shareholders panic?"

This time, all the shareholders targeted Lu Hongzhan.

Yeah, Deputy Chairman. Why? Did I break out in cold sweat when I heard you say that? Say, how did 'the Lu's' leave Director Lu?"

Yes, yes, yes. Deputy Chairman, even if you want to 'scheme', you can't frame your own blood brother like this, right?"

He even intentionally created such a shocking scene that we almost believed him.

It's only Young Director Gong. He's smart. You can tell that it's fake the moment you hear him.

Within the meeting room, the wind quietly changed. Shareholders denounced Lu Hongzhan.

Have you guys said enough!

Lu Hengyuan slapped the table in front of him hard, while veins popped out on the back of his hand.

Cousin, what are you doing? Uncle already told us to speak freely …

Gong Nanling crossed his legs again and lazily sat on his seat. He calmly looked at the furious Lu Hengyuan, and a trace of disdain appeared on the face of the demon.

Bang.

Before he finished, Lu Hengyuan grabbed the coffee cup in front of him and threw it towards him.

Unexpectedly, Gong Nanling didn't manage to avoid it in time. His silver-grey shirt suddenly spilled a lot of coffee stains. The other director sitting beside him was also covered in blood.

The cold coffee soaked his flesh through his thin shirt, and the greasy feeling made Gong Nanling angry.

Lu Hengyuan, are you sick!?

he blurted out. In the end, he added.

That's right, you are indeed sick.

Gong Nanling, you're too much.

Lin Zhiyan said fiercely to Gong Nanling when she saw his' presumptuous' and red cheekbones.

Gong Nanling curled his lips, twitched his mouth, and ignored her. He just took a tissue and wiped himself.

Lu Hengyuan was so angry that his breathing quickened. His handsome face gradually turned ferocious. His already blood-red eyes became even more terrifying.

Seeing him in such a state, Lin Zhiyan was afraid that something was wrong with his mental state. She quickly got up and tried to pull him up.

Hengyuan, let's go.

However, Lu Hengyuan was at the edge of insanity, and his entire body was surrounded by a vicious aura. His fists were clenched on the conference table in front of him, and his knuckles were white.

Master …

Lin Zhiyan had no choice but to 'ask' Lu Hongzhan for help.

At this moment, Lu Hongzhan was getting annoyed about how to explain things to the shareholders and where to get the mood to care about them.

Lin Zhiyan couldn't help but feel a bit annoyed when she saw him ignore her.

He couldn't wait to curse at him, but in the end, he forced himself to hold it in.

Nanling, didn't you see that your cousin is not feeling well? Send him to the hospital immediately. "

CHAPTER 403 - VEXATION

Lu Yiyao had been looking at the computer screen on the desk with a cold expression. He had been sitting straight for almost half an hour now, and he felt the pain from his wound getting worse and worse, as if thousands of needles were stabbing into his skin.

He forced himself to hold on, so that the people in the Yunjing conference room wouldn't see anything strange.

Through the screen, he could see that Lu Hengyuan was most likely going to get sick. However, Lu Hongzhan ignored him and hurriedly ordered Gong Nanling.

Yes, uncle.

Gong Nanling answered and quickly stood up to walk to Lu Hengyuan's side.

Cousin, let's go. I'll walk you down.

Get out of my way!

Lu Hengyuan stretched out his hand and fiercely pushed him away.

Hengyuan …

Lin Zhiyan was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.

Gong Nanling was also infuriated, and his devilish face sank. He walked over once again and pulled Lu Hengyuan's hand tightly as he spoke furiously.

Do you think I want to care about you!? Let's go!

Hengyuan, listen to mom, let's go take a rest first …

Lin Zhiyan said in a trembling voice as she looked at Lu Hongzhan.

In front of Lu Yiyao and all the shareholders, Lu Hongzhan finally couldn't stand it anymore and stood up.

Hengyuan, let's go and rest.

…

Lu Hengyuan bit his lips. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Lu Yiyao on the screen. The corner of his mouth twitched, but he could not utter a single word.

Gong Nanling and Lu Hongzhan each grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the meeting room.

Tang Yi rushed over as soon as he received the notice. First, he gave him an injection and then took him to the hospital.

Lin Zhiyan accompanied him.

Lu Hongzhan and Gong Nanling returned to Conference Room 1.

After entering, Lu Hongzhan did not sit at the head seat. Instead, he sat at Deputy Chairman's seat.

Lu Yiyao stared at him coldly as the corner of his mouth twitched imperceptibly.

This time, Gu Anhe had made him tumble. If he still doesn't remember, then don't blame him for being heartless.

Lu Yiyao and Qing Han continued to preside over the following meeting.

Outside the office.

Lin Ange felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles. Her charming face was tense all the time. Her hands were entwined as she rubbed them back and forth.

Almost an hour had passed.

No matter how strong Lu Yiyao's self-control was, his injuries …

If the wound was torn again, it would be much more troublesome to recover.

But she couldn't force her way in to disturb him, so she could only wait outside anxiously.

...

Yunjing.

Qingning Hospital.

Lu Jinhui leaned on the small table before him. There was an IPAD on the table. Inside, the live broadcast was showing the 'the Lu's' group's shareholders' meeting.

His face was still silent, some of his dark lips pressed together, his gray eyebrows drawn together.

He had warned Lu Hongzhan to be more obedient. However, the other party didn't listen to him at all. Instead, he turned even more serious, directly wanting to 'remove' him.

Such a son had truly disappointed him.

As long as he had half of Lu Yiyao's ability, how could he give the corporation to Lu Yiyao?

Today's' seizing power 'battle had made him even more determined.

From then on, Lu Hongzhan and Lu Hengyuan no longer had the right to be the successor of Lu Family.

He specifically pulled Gong Hantian to watch it with him.

Gong Hantian said worriedly when he saw Gong Nanling supporting Lu Hengyuan out of the meeting room.

Dad, it's all because Xun'er and I doted on Nanling so much that he was so arrogant …

Presumptuous?

Lu Jinhui narrowed his eyes. The light in his eyes was a little dim.

Hantian, Nanling is only 22 years old. In the future, he will definitely become a great person.

Dad, you …

Gong Nanling saw Lu Jinhui not only did not reprimand Gong Nanling, but also praised him. He could not believe it. Sitting on the chair beside the sickbed, his face revealed a hint of surprise.

This child, I think highly of him.

Lu Jinhui's frown loosened a little and a hint of approval appeared in his eyes.

Dad, thank you for your love for Nanling. But I think, wait until he follows Third Brother to train for a while, then we'll let him return to the 'Gong'.

Gong Hantian did not want Gong Nanling to be involved in the battle of Lu Family.

Today at the shareholders' general meeting, Gong Nanling had fought against Lu Hongzhan like that. Perhaps, Lu Hongzhan already felt hatred in Gong Nanling's heart. What would happen to him in the future?

Hehe, Hantian, you don't need to be so hasty with your opinions.

Lu Jinhui smiled and then looked at him with his hands crossed in front of his chest.

Dad, Nanling is my child, I know his worth …

Gong Hantian smiled and said respectfully.

Close it.

Lu Jinhui saw the meeting because of Lu Yiyao's sudden appearance, there was a reversal. He was relieved and did not want to look anymore.

Alright.

Gong Hantian then closed the IPAD, put down the small table, and helped Lu Jinhui lie down.

Oh right, Hantian. I think Nanling's engagement ceremony will be held at Yunjing, what do you think?

Right here?

Gong Hantian was stunned for a moment and revealed a slightly surprised expression.

Gong Family and Ning Family were both big shots of Chenghai, even if they did not return to the [M] Country, they should do it in Chenghai.

What is it? I want to give my grandson a grand engagement party, can't I?

Seeing that he didn't immediately agree, Lu Jinhui's gaze tightened and his expression turned cold.

Dad, I didn't mean that. It's his blessing that you're hosting the engagement banquet for Nanling. Xun'er and I have no reason to disagree."

Gong Hantian knew that as his father-in-law, he was adamant on what he said and made a decision that others couldn't change even if they wanted to.

Except Lu Yiyao.

No one else would dare to resist him.

You and Ning Family set a date first. Leave the rest to me.

Lu Jinhui ordered coldly.

Alright.

Gong Hantian smiled and agreed, but his heart was full of doubts.

[Why does the Old Master have to arrange a wedding for Nanling in Yunjing? He wouldn't see Nanling as a candidate for the successor, right?]

If it were anyone else, they would have been too happy.

However, he was not excited at all. Instead, his heart was filled with worry.

The internal conflict within the Wealthy Class was extremely tragic.

He didn't want his son involved.

Dad, take a good rest, I'm going out first.

Gong Hantian covered Lu Jinhui with the quilt, said softly and walked out slowly.

Lu Yixun was sitting on the sofa in the outer room, reading a book.

Brother Tian, is dad okay?

It's fine, he's already asleep.

Gong Hantian sat beside her and embraced her.

Brother Tian …

Lu Yixun snuggled up to him and gently called out to him.

Xun'er, Daddy just said that I would help Nanling and Qianyu arrange their wedding in Yunjing …

Right here? Then what about the Gong Family s?

Lu Yixun raised her head slightly, a trace of worry in her eyes.

Although Gong Hantian was only the adopted son of Gong Family. But Gong Family were good to him, there was no difference between him and his own son.

As the grandson of Gong Family, Gong Nanling's engagement in a wedding such a big thing, without Gong Family, is a bit unreasonable?

CHAPTER 404 - SEVERE WARNING

…

Gong Hantian pursed his lips and smiled, while a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.

Brother Tian, how about, I find a chance to talk to dad?

Lu Yixun knew that he was in a difficult position. Since he couldn't reject Lu Jinhui's' good intentions', he was worried that the Gong Family Elders might not agree.

Dad also did it out of good intentions. I'll explain it to dad and mom when I get back to Chenghai. I think they can understand.

Gong Hantian loved his wife dearly and did not want her to suffer any grievances. Since Lu Jinhui had already made such a decision, how could he easily change it?

How about, I let Third Brother talk to dad?

Lu Yixun thought for a moment and said gently.

Don't bother Third Brother with something like this? Is he so busy at work?"

Gong Hantian held her hand and stopped her with a warm voice.

But …

Alright. Xun'er, stop thinking about it. Leave it to me, I'll take care of it.

Gong Hantian said confidently.

…

Lu Yixun leaned into his arms and nodded, not saying anything else.

Gong Nanling still didn't know that the marriage between him and Ning Qianyu, the palace, and the Ning Family were already in full swing. He only knew that he had just discovered his own heart and knew who he liked.

At the end of the meeting, he was a little distracted. Gu Mengmeng's flushed face appeared in his mind from time to time.

I wonder how she's doing right now?

He sat in a comfortable position, holding his cell phone, and secretly sent her a message under the conference table.

Gu Mengmeng, shall we have dinner tonight? I have something to tell you.]

After that, he placed the phone back onto the conference table in front of him.

After waiting for two minutes, he turned the screen over and saw that it was still clean.

Black screen.

He pressed it.

He repeated this process for more than a dozen times, but Gu Mengmeng still hadn't given him a reply.

What is this girl doing? Why didn't you reply? Is it that busy?

Lu Yiyao's unfathomable eyes could clearly see his small movements. He observed them carefully without batting an eyelid.

Two minutes later.

Gong Nanling slowly loosened his legs, dragged the chair and sat upright. His gaze tightened as he looked at the screen of Lu Yiyao.

Everyone, take advantage of this opportunity, let me say one more word. The the Lu's Group is the property of my father, Lu Jinhui, and many of you are old men who built it with him. I hope that you will not forget your original intention and not forget the root of your problem. Don't covet your own interests and get used by someone who has ulterior motives.

The 'Wu Steel' Group is currently operating well, and its revenue and profits are steadily rising. The Wuhan Iron and Steel Group would never need the help of external capital. Here, I repeat. If any of you wish to withdraw from the board of directors, hand over the shares in your hands. Then I, Lu Yiyao, will accept it all, and it will be 20% above the market price. "

But if any of you secretly transfer or resell your shares to other foreign capital, don't blame me for being rude.

The shareholders immediately understood what he meant.

It was rumored that the owner of Li City, 'the Gu's', Gu Anhe, extremely wished to take over, 'Sun Steel.' Lu Hongzhan, the group's first target, was currently on the move.

Although this matter had yet to be confirmed, Lu Yiyao's words from before undoubtedly responded to this matter.

Director Lu, don't worry. We will definitely follow the corporation.

Yes, yes. We will never be villains who go back on their word.

Yeah, the corporation brings us so much profit every year, how could we be willing to resell it?

Director Lu, even if someone offered a sky-high price, we would never sell the shares in our hands.

Shareholders took sides. They were of the same calibre and would never sell out their shares.

Lu Hongzhan's face was ashen, while the veins on his forehead were popping.

This time, the stealing was a failure. Not only did he not succeed in seizing the position, he had even lost all his face.

Not to mention how Lu Yiyao would deal with him, even Lu Jinhui wouldn't let him off easily.

All of this was Gu Anhe's fault.

Lu Yiyao's eyes darkened slightly. His stern face was calm and without any wind or rain. He quietly looked at the computer screen in front of him.

The stabbing pain in his left abdomen slowly penetrated deep into his limbs and bones, and every cell in his body tensed up.

The veins on his forehead throbbed. His hands, which were placed on the desk, were clenched into fists. His nails dug into his palms and his knuckles gradually turned white.

He straightened his back, still sitting upright.

None of the people in the Yunjing meeting room noticed anything amiss.

Even someone as vicious as Wang Shijie couldn't tell what was going on.

Outside the office.

Lin Ange raised her wrist to check the time. The meeting had been going on for an hour and a half.

Unable to sit still any longer, she stood up. He rubbed his hands together and took a few steps back and forth.

No.

It can't go on.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Lu Yiyao.

[Well? Are you alright?]

Beep.

Lu Yiyao's phone on his desk rang. He picked it up and took a look.

Her dark eyes narrowed, and her grave face softened as a layer of warmth spread across her brows.

[Don't worry, I'm fine.]

The slender fingers quickly typed and replied.

Separated by a door, the two of them relied on wireless communication.

Buzz.

Lin Ange's palm went numb as she quickly bit her lips to look around.

Her uneasy heart relaxed a little, but it was still beating fast. She couldn't stop worrying.

Even if he said it was all right, she wouldn't dare to let her guard down.

He was someone who could only lie down. After sitting properly for such a long time, how could he not be worried?

[How about, you quit early?]

Lin Ange suggested with an anxious expression.

[I'm fine. Wait for me.]

Lin Ange's eyes began to ache as she saw his reply. Her eyelashes trembled as she felt a twinge of heartache.

Just as she was about to continue persuading him, Ye Qinghuan's phone call came in.

Her heart tightened as she quickly walked to the corridor.

Aunt Huan …

An Ge, what are you doing?

Ye Qinghuan whispered as she sat on the balcony, looking out at the endless night.

Lu Yiyao is having a video conference, I'm waiting for him …

Lin Ange had already confirmed the relationship between Ye Qinghuan and Lu Yiyao, so she didn't hide it from him.

Meeting?

Ye Qinghuan loosened her hands and the beans in her bosom took the opportunity to jump down. She was stunned for a moment before speaking in a hurry.

He's like this, why is he still holding conferences?

It's a very important meeting. There's no way not to appear, so …

Lin Ange lowered her head to explain. Mist curled out of her eyes as she spoke with a helpless tone.

…

Ye Qinghuan stared straight ahead, looking at the endless night in the distance. He felt a lump in his throat and a deep love appeared in his eyes.

Aunt Huan, don't worry. He's in good health and his wounds are recovering well. Doctors say he's different from normal people …"

Lin Ange wiped her eyes, feigning a relaxed expression.

Their hearts were linked, how could Ye Qinghuan not worry?

We can't just let him do that.

Ye Qinghuan slowly said as she suppressed her emotions with great difficulty.

CHAPTER 405 - ACCIDENTAL REGENERATION

Yes, I know, Aunt Huan. I'll take good care of him.

Lin Ange's long eyelashes blinked and her eyebrows raised slightly.

Aunt Huan, you called me. Is something the matter?

Oh, I just wanted to ask. Do you know why Yun Xiao is rushing back to the city tonight?

Gu Yunxiao?

Lin Ange thought for a while and said.

He told me that tonight was Auntie Du's coming of age ceremony for her friend's daughter.

A friend of Zhiwei? surname Dean?

Ye Qinghuan was startled and frowned. She tried hard to figure out who it was.

The night wind blew gently, bringing with it a slight warmth.

He looks like Yuwen or something …

Lin Ange thought hard and said with uncertainty.

Yuwen?

Ye Qinghuan suddenly realized who she was talking about.

Bai Zhi Wei did indeed have a good friend who was married to Yuwen Family, her name was Du Kou.

However, this Du Kou had followed her husband to the Kingdom of F many years ago, so there was very little contact between them.

Who would've thought that she would return?

When did this happen?

Logically speaking, she should have known.

Could it be that he had been so focused on Lu Yiyao these past few days that he didn't pay attention to anything else.

Oh, I see. An Ge, are you busy?

Mm, okay. Aunt Huan, I'll hang up first then."

Lin Ange was worried about Lu Yiyao, so she didn't continue chatting with her.

An Ge, you have to take care of your own rest as well. Don't get tired.

A hint of concern appeared in Ye Qinghuan's eyes as she said lovingly.

She truly liked Lin Ange from the bottom of her heart and almost doted on her as her own daughter.

Okay, Aunt Huan, you have to take good care of yourself too, don't worry. Rest early."

Mm. Alright.

After Ye Qinghuan finished speaking, the two hung up the phone.

In the starry sky.

It was so dark that not even a lonely remnant of a star could be seen.

The air was stifling and heavy.

Ye Qinghuan's heart suddenly felt as though it was being pricked by needles. Her temples throbbed twice as a slight pain appeared on her forehead.

She had a faint bad feeling that something was going to happen tonight.

He got up, went back to his room and took two sips of warm water.

Lying on the bed, he read a Bible.

The chaotic thoughts quieted down a little, but his uneasy heart was unable to calm down completely.

Tomorrow, I'll still go to the Phoenix Stage to take a look personally.

Ye Qinghuan muttered to herself.

After Lin Ange hung up the phone, she quickly walked towards the office's door. Seeing that the door to the office was still closed, he became even more anxious.

It had been nearly two hours.

Why isn't Lu Yiyao coming out yet?

Her tight little face was covered with anxiety, and she was pacing back and forth in the doorway, her hands clasped together.

From time to time, he would stop and lift his wrist to look at his watch.

Drip, drip, drip.

She had never felt the passage of time so slow that even the second hand seemed to stop moving.

Every cell in his body tensed, and his heart hung high in his chest. It was as if a ball of fire was burning in his heart, burning with anxiety.

At this moment, she wished that the one injured was herself.

Time passed minute by minute, second by second, Lin Ange's back was so tight that it felt stiff. Beads of perspiration covered her forehead.

It's been so long, why isn't he coming out yet?

No, I have to send him another message.

Lin Ange stopped pacing back and forth and stood still. He took out his cell phone and typed out a single word. Then, the office door quickly opened.

Lu Yiyao …

Madam, quick, send the CEO to the ward.

Before she could see Lu Yiyao's situation clearly, she heard Ding Mo's hurried and slightly frantic voice.

Alright.

She agreed without thinking. Lowering his eyes, he looked down.

Only now did he realize that Lu Yiyao, who was leaning on the wheelchair, had his eyes slightly closed. His face was pale, and his cold lips had lost their color, almost reaching his skin color.

His left hand was tightly clutching the wound on his left abdomen, and his heart was heaving slightly.

His breathing was weak.

Lu Yiyao …

Lin Ange grabbed the armrest of the wheelchair and ran to the ward.

Her clear eyes quickly condensed into a large ball of mist, wrapping around those black and bright pupils. Her beautiful face was covered with endless love and nervousness.

Lu Yiyao, hold on a little longer, we're almost to the ward.

As she walked, she would turn her head to Lu Yiyao from time to time.

Suddenly, a slender hand was placed on the back of her hand which was holding the armrest of the wheelchair. His palm was as cold as water and as cold as ice.

Little girl, it's fine.

Lin Ange's heart trembled as she heard a low and cold voice piercing her ears. He bent over, lowered his head, and watched him as he walked.

He pulled at his heavy eyelids with great difficulty. His dark, narrow eyes were half-closed. His sharp lips were slightly pursed, and even the tip of his eyebrows had a curve to them.

He smiled.

There was a hint of desolation in the smile.

Lin Ange's heart ached even more. The mist in her eyes condensed into a pearl and dripped onto the back of his hand, where veins were popping out.

The warm tears fell on the back of his hand and on his heart. He pursed his lips and spoke again, his voice more husky than before.

Little girl, don't cry. I'm fine."

Yes.

Lin Ange bit her lips and endured the endless love in her heart. She tried her best to return a faint smile to him.

Lu Yiyao, don't worry. No matter what happens, I will always be by your side.

Alright.

Lu Yiyao pursed his lips and closed his eyes again. The thick, pitch-black eyelashes covered the unfathomable depths of his black pupils, casting a deep shadow upon them.

A hint of loneliness could be seen on his grave face.

Gu Nianshi and Lu Yi were already waiting in the ward.

Lu Yiyao was carried to the bed, where Lin Ange helped him take off his black suit jacket.

He pulled open his hand that was covering the wound. The palm of his hand was blood-red.

Lin Ange's eyes were strongly stimulated by the fiendish red, and her tense body unknowingly swayed a few times. He felt nauseous.

She forced herself to hold on.

The wound bled again, which was not a good sign.

An Ge, wait for us on the side first. We'll deal with it immediately.

Gu Nianshi quickly gave the order.

Alright.

Ding Mo immediately answered and turned his head towards the pale Lin Ange.

Madam, let's go over there and wait.

…

The tip of Lin Ange's nose reddened. Looking at the bloodstains on Lu Yiyao's shirt, her heart ached and the nausea in her stomach rose up one after another. His legs were as heavy as lead and he couldn't move his feet no matter how hard he tried.

Madam …

Ding Mo reminded him in a low voice again.

Let's go over there and wait. Don't stop Doctor Gu.

Lin Ange then wiped the corner of her eyes, pursed her lips, and walked towards the sofa in the ward with a pale face.

Gu Nianshi directly cut open Lu Yiyao's shirt with his scissors. The white bandage was already completely dyed red with blood, and blood was still constantly seeping out.

He didn't even need to remove the bandage to know that the wound had already been torn open.

Junior Martial Uncle …

When his assistant, Lu Yi, saw this situation, he could not help but become nervous. Ye Zichen turned around and said worriedly to Gu Nianshi.
