Chapter 200: Not Saying Doesn't Mean No Heartbreak

will be fine.As long as he comes back, everything will be fine.At night, the community was quiet. Perhaps everyone had fallen asleep, until the streetlights outside the community automatically turned..."Joe Bao'er's jade pendant"

"What, a crescent-shaped blood jade… I really don't know, she never told me."

Zhu Xiaowei was asked something inexplicable.

"Looking at young Master Lu, he seems quite insistent. On second thought, I'll add that Qiao Bao'er told me she encountered a strange thing recently."

"Strange things"

Lu Qinan couldn't find out anything about the jade pendant, and he was a little disheartened. He had lost interest in any strange occurrences.

"This is how it went down, Qiao Baier said she'd received two text messages recently…"

One showed Junzhi Mu's phone number, saying to meet her at a Gordon Hotel party in the rain. The other was yesterday, showing Xia Chuxue's phone number, asking her to go to golden club...

Zhu Xiao Wei tried to be as detailed as possible.

She was very worried, especially about this out-of-the-blue delivery of food. While marrying into the Jun family was undoubtedly enviable, what if the price of entering a wealthy family meant risking her life What would Qiao Bao'er do then

"Did Xiaoxue ask her to go to the golden club"

Lu Qinan was a little confused, and immediately denied, "Impossible."

Zhu Xiaowei saw his expression and became a little anxious.

"You don't believe Qiao Baier, do you But she doesn't have to lie. Even if there's a misunderstanding, she should be believed first... Besides, Xia Chui Xue wouldn't always be so provocative if she wasn't always trying to stir up trouble..."

What did Xia Chuixue tell Qiao Bao'er in the dark

"I don't know."

Zhu Xiaowei mumbled three words, Qiao Baoer didn't follow up with her.

"Could Xia Chui Xue bully Qiao Bao'er with that fiery personality of hers" Lu Qin Nan scoffed.

Zhu Xiaowei suddenly became a little annoyed.

“Listen, don't think just because you guys are rich you know everything. While that Xia Miss didn't really physically harm her, her sharp words were like knives that could cut people deeply. You think just because Qiao Baoer doesn't speak up, nothing happened I know her well, she hasn't mentioned a word about her mother's suicide, being targeted by her stepmother, being ostracized by the Qiao family, or being ignored by Yi Sicheng for three years. She just isn't used to confiding in people, that stubborn personality of hers has gotten used to bearing it all alone. You really think she wouldn't be hurt just because she doesn't say anything”

Lu Qinnan was stunned by her scolding.

Raising an eyebrow, Yang Yang looked at Zhu classmate. She usually had a meek and soft personality, but she could actually deliver such profound words. It seemed that "you are close to vermilion, you are red; close to ink, you are black." She had been poisoned by Qiao Bao'er and didn't seem as harmless as she appeared.

The corridor of the hospital's inpatient department had inexplicably fallen silent.

Zhu Xiaowei's harsh words just now were also a moment of impulse. In her usual days, she wouldn't have the guts to yell at these "upper-class people" like that. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she turned her body away.

Regardless of the truth behind these messages and food deliveries, she was simply feeling sorry for Qiao Baier.

In their circle, they all distrusted her.

"When the shepherd returns, I will speak to him about these matters."

Lu Qinnan didn't mind being lectured, he cleared his throat, eased the atmosphere, and calmly replied.

"Oh... thank you."

Zhu Xiaowei was surprised to see that Young Master Lu was so easy to talk to.

The previous second she was worried he would be fierce and scare her, luckily... she swore it was just an impulse.

Fearing she might accidentally offend these important people, Zhu Xiaowei decided to leave. In a safe and polite manner, she said, “I’m going to check on Qiao Baor.” Then, she dashed back to the ward.

Maybe Qiao Bao'er didn't sleep well last night, and besides eating that takeout food that made her feel unwell, she was sleeping very soundly in bed.

Zhu Xiaowei didn't dare to wake her up. Bored, she walked around the ward, carefully pulling the curtains to block the slanting sun. Only then did she remember that she hadn't eaten lunch and her interview had also failed. What bad luck! She suddenly felt even hungrier.

Turning around, ready to go outside the hospital to find something to eat.

Just then, a nurse wheeled in a small cart with some intravenous fluids.

Zhu Xiaowei glanced at those IV drips. The English annotations were very small, and she couldn't make them out. However, she figured the hospital would use only legitimate drugs.

She brushed past the nurse, both giving each other a polite nod. She walked straight out of the ward.

"Let's go get some food together. There's a pretty good Chinese restaurant on the main road ahead..."

He just happened to meet Lu Qinan at the end of the corridor, who had just hung up his phone and shouted towards her.

Zhu Xiaowei's expression hesitated, not knowing whether to follow up.

She never intended to take advantage of anyone, especially those wealthy kids.

"What are you worried about"

Lu Qin'nan looked innocent. "Don't you think I have any ulterior motives Rest assured, Qiao Bao'er warned me eight hundred years ago not to make a move on you. I'm very pure."

That phrase, 'I'm so innocent,' made Zhu Xiaowei want to laugh a little.

With the other party saying so, Zhu Xiaowei didn't put on airs either. She followed his footsteps and entered the elevator together.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, Lu Qinan, ever the gentleman, offered the woman a seat and drove off in search of good food.

Zhu Xiaowei frowned, watching him drive further and further away. She spoke up, "Could you just grab something to eat nearby Qiao Baor is alone in the hospital, it's not good."

"You're really worried about her."

Lu Qinian couldn't help but complain about that woman named Qiao. Such a violent woman, how could she know this soft creature Maybe Qiao Bao'er had forced and oppressed her. Thinking about it, Zhu classmate was also quite pitiful.

The car drove away from the hospital, turning onto the road ahead.

"Don't worry about Qiao Baoer, she just has a stomachache. The doctor said to hang two bottles of saline and rest in bed, she'll be able to go home."

"Just two bottles of saline solution"

Zhu Xiaowei suddenly straightened up, turning to look at him with complicated eyes.

Lu Qinian was looked at by her inexplicably, and nodded, "Yes, when she was just brought over, wasn't she already given two bottles of saline Let Miss Qiao have a good sleep. Later, we can just pack up a bowl of porridge and drive to pick her up..."

Zhu Xiaowei's face slowly paled with fear, her words choked with anxiety, "Turn around—"

"What"

"Car, car turn around immediately, go back to the hospital—"

She frantically grabbed Lu Qinan's hand on the steering wheel, her voice tense and sharp, "Hurry back to the hospital—"

"What's wrong"

Lu Qinan's heart also began to race. Without asking the reason, he slammed on the steering wheel and, ignoring traffic violations, immediately turned the car around and sped towards the hospital.

The two hurried out of the car and strode quickly, both eager to run towards the hospital ward.

Footsteps pounded closer, Zhu Xiaowei frantically hammered at the elevator buttons, his heart pounding with anxiety.

"I'll just take the stairs..."

Looking at the numbers on the elevator display, she was so angry that she turned around and wanted to run to the left staircase. Lu Qinian reached out and grabbed her, "Qiao Bao'er is just resting from being tired, don't be too nervous..."

But, but I…when I just left Qiao Baoer’s ward, a nurse pushed a cart in with several IV bags... drunk last night and went to room 502 upstairs to have a wild time.She was complained about by the residents for being too noisy, and finally, the security guard of the community carried her back to...
