The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 227 - 129: Don’t Regret It If She Divorces You Later
Chapter 227: Chapter 129: Don’t Regret It If She Divorces You Later
At this moment, Zuo Yuqing’s agent Xu Hong just returned from the bathroom, and seeing the scene in front of her, she was momentarily stunned. Her gaze landed on Song Qiao, who was surrounded by people not far away, but she quickly withdrew her gaze and ran towards Zuo Yuqing and Lu Jingchen. She started speaking anxiously, "What happened here? Yuqing, what happened to you? Young Master Lu!"
When Lu Jingchen picked up Zuo Yuqing, the color had already drained from her face. She felt herself being held in a broad embrace, and her nostrils filled with a strong masculine scent, which made her nose tingle uncontrollably. She looked up at his exceptionally handsome face, and subconsciously glanced at Song Qiao, who had been pushed to the ground not far away, before she looked away and her lips moved stiffly, "Jingchen, why are you here?"
Lu Jingchen’s lips were tightly pursed as he looked down at Zuo Yuqing in his arms, whose complexion had turned bloodless. He responded naturally, his jaw tense, "I happened to be passing by, let me take you to the hospital."
He then turned to look at Chen Hong, speaking indifferently, "Call the hospital first, I’m taking her there immediately."
He hadn’t clearly seen what exactly had happened, only knowing that Zuo Yuqing had been knocked to the ground by someone.
Subconsciously, he glanced in the direction of the person who had pushed him aside earlier, but his brow furrowed; the crowd had gathered around the person, obscuring the view.
Upon hearing Lu Jingchen’s words, Xu Hong immediately panicked and started dialing 120 on her phone.
When Qin Zhe and An Ke came out, Lu Jingchen was just carrying Zuo Yuqing out of the Hua Yi building towards the hospital. Seeing Song Qiao lying on the ground unconscious, both were instantly scared and frantically dialed 120, not daring to move him because they weren’t sure where he had been injured.
They vaguely heard from the people around that it was about the popular actress Zuo Yuqing, and also heard that it was CK Group’s CEO Lu Jingchen who had pushed Song Qiao aside.
An Ke was almost scared to tears, and even Qin Zhe’s complexion didn’t look good.
In the city’s People’s Hospital, Lu Jingchen stood inside the ward looking at Zuo Yuqing lying on the bed, his expression indifferent, "Since you’re alright, I’ll be going now."
Zuo Yuqing hadn’t actually been hurt that badly, only having possibly twisted her wrist when she fell and landed on her hands.
Hearing that Lu Jingchen was leaving, Zuo Yuqing’s expression changed. From the time he had brought her to the hospital, he had stayed with her for more than half an hour. She couldn’t help but ask directly, "Jingchen, are you very busy with work?"
Lu Jingchen, at this moment, didn’t know why, but he felt very irritable, almost as if something was urging to burst out from inside. His brow furrowed slightly, and he responded naturally in a subdued tone, "Yes."
Since the examination showed that apart from her wrist being sprained, she hadn’t been injured elsewhere, the color returned to Zuo Yuqing’s face. Knowing she couldn’t persuade Lu Jingchen to stay if he wished to leave, she smiled and said, "Okay, you can go ahead if you have things to do. Thanks for taking me to the hospital when we were at Hua Yi."
The man picked up the jacket he had set aside, his lips parting slightly, his response calm and unastonished, "It’s nothing, you rest well. When you need to check out, just complete the formalities and go home."
"Alright!"
...
As Lu Jingchen sat in the car, he still felt very irritable, so he didn’t start the car immediately but instead took out a cigarette from the car’s drawer, lit it, and took a drag between his fingers.
Somehow, he felt as if he had overlooked something, as if he had missed something important.
But at the moment, he couldn’t quite understand where this feeling came from.
He reached for his phone left aside, flipped through the contact book, and finally, when his gaze landed on Song Qiao’s phone number, he realized what he had neglected.
He had originally gone to Hua Yi for Song Qiao, wanting to surprise her, but seeing Zuo Yuqing injured had made him forget his initial intention.
The black Bentley Mulsanne was parked in the hospital parking lot, Lu Jingchen’s lips tightly pursed. He directly dialed Song Qiao’s number and held it to his ear, but the phone rang for a long time without answer.
The man’s expression grew even darker as he watched the call being automatically disconnected. With no hesitation, he dialed again, yet there was still no answer.
A surge of anger suddenly rose in his heart, as if about to explode. Just as he was about to start the car, his gaze caught sight of a figure hurriedly running out from the hospital. His eyes narrowed, looking over and directly lowered the car window. He saw the figure rush to a taxi that had just stopped, and a woman got out of the taxi.
Lu Jingchen narrowed his eyes as he watched Lu An’an, who had just gotten out of the car, and An Ke running out from the hospital. He was puzzled why An’an appeared here at the hospital, and wasn’t that young girl an artist under Song Qiao’s management?
Knowing that Song Qiao and Lu An’an have a good relationship, and having dined with them before where he learned about Qin Zhe and An Ke’s situation, Lu An’an also took care of them at times.
Although An Ke had the company’s phone number, when Song Qiao was pushed into the operating room, she immediately called Lu An’an.
Once Lu An’an received the call from An Ke, she hurried to the hospital, and upon getting out of the car, she saw An Ke coming towards her with slightly red eyes. Startled, she quickly approached and asked, "How is Qiaoqiao?"
An Ke, who had clearly been crying, shook her head, "Sister An’an, Sister Qiao might have injured her waist. She just came out of the operating room, and I couldn’t understand what the doctor said. Qin Zhe is taking care of Sister Qiao now!"
Lu An’an frowned and walked into the hospital wearing her high heels, her voice somewhat cold, "How could she get injured for no reason? What exactly happened?"
"We don’t know, at that time Qin Zhe and I were at an audition. Sister Qiao was waiting outside for us. When we came out after the audition, we saw Sister Qiao lying unconscious on the ground. However, when we came out, some people mentioned that it might have something to do with the famous actress Zuo Yuqing..." An Ke continued with what they had heard when they came out, about Zuo Yuqing and about Lu Jingchen. After finishing, she immediately teared up and said, "Sister An’an, I’m sorry, we didn’t protect Sister Qiao well!"
"This is not your fault." Knowing that An Ke and Qin Zhe were auditioning at that time and it definitely had nothing to do with them, Lu An’an’s expression worsened as An Ke mentioned Zuo Yuqing, most likely it involved that woman. After a thought, she directly took out her phone and only when they reached the door of the hospital room did Lu An’an say to An Ke, "Don’t tell others about this for now, go in and take care of your Sister Qiao. I’m going to make some calls and ask the doctor."
"Okay!" An Ke didn’t ask further and obediently entered the ward.
Dialing a familiar phone number on her mobile phone, Lu An’an’s expression looked uneasy. Once the call connected, without waiting for the other person to speak, she immediately asked, "Jingchen, where are you now?"
Who would have thought, Lu An’an is Lu Jingchen’s sister, only they have different mothers.
Right now, Lu Jingchen sat tightly furrowed in his car in the hospital parking lot, even feeling a bit of a headache, which made him faintly state after a long while, "An’an, what’s wrong? Is there something urgent?"
Lu An’an tried to control her temper, almost gritting her teeth as she asked, "Are you still at the hospital now?"
Lighting another cigarette, Lu Jingchen took a drag on it, his expression tired as he hummed an acknowledgment.
Hearing that Lu Jingchen was still at the hospital, Lu An’an assumed he was accompanying that woman Zuo Yuqing, and she immediately lost her temper, "Brother, Qiaoqiao is your wife, yet for Zuo Yuqing, that little bitch, you did this to Qiaoqiao. Are you planning to be with that little bitch Zuo Yuqing?"
Upon hearing Lu An’an’s words, Lu Jingchen’s face darkened, his voice dropping a few notches, the lowered tone indicating his mood wasn’t good, "An’an, what are you talking about?"
Thinking of Zuo Yuqing stirring trouble again, she preferred Song Qiao over Zuo Yuqing and has always treated Song Qiao like a close sister. Knowing Song Qiao married her brother, she couldn’t be happier.
But now, before she could even fully rejoice, Song Qiao was hospitalized because of Zuo Yuqing and her brother.
At this moment, her mood was even worse than Lu Jingchen’s. Gritting her teeth, she said, "You are still defending Zuo Yuqing. Brother, Qiaoqiao is in the hospital because of you, right? If Qiaoqiao wakes up and knows about this, if she divorces you, don’t regret it. If need be, I can introduce some talented young men to Qiaoqiao later..."
Hearing Lu An’an’s words, Lu Jingchen’s expression changed, he quickly caught the key point in her words, his voice stressed, "An’an, are you saying Qiaoqiao is in the hospital now?"
Lu An’an was stunned, involuntarily humming, then paused before asking, "Brother, isn’t Qiaoqiao hospitalized because of you?"
The man’s jaw clenched tightly, his eyes dark and unclear, his hand crushing the cigarette he was holding with force, his voice tense, "Which ward is she in now?"
Lu An’an hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to obediently tell Lu Jingchen which ward Song Qiao was in.
After hanging up the phone, Lu An’an couldn’t help but furrow her brows, the words she had heard from Lu Jingchen made her feel that this matter was very fishy, according to An Ke, it should have been her brother who sidelined Qiaoqiao.
Could it be that An Ke misheard?
