Chapter 38 Taking Him Home
Turn around?
That's impossible.
Lu Jingxiao stepped forward and picked her up in his arms, his eyes unusually firm. He glanced at Luo Zhiwei indifferently and said, "To the hospital."
Luo Zhiwei was quietly held in someone's arms, the train of her white wedding dress scattered on the ground. She carefully picked it up, her face showing some resistance: "Mr. Lu, no need, I think I just hurt myself. I'll disinfect it with iodine."
This is such a small matter that it doesn't warrant going to the hospital.
Lu Jingxiao frowned slightly. Sometimes, he really wanted to shut Luo Zhiwei up.
Is it really that infuriating?
"Luo Zhiwei, if you call me 'President Lu' again, I'll take you to court right here."
They had done everything before, except for the final step.
He doesn't mind realizing his dream right now.
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
She lay quietly in Lu Jingxiao's arms like a quail, without saying a word, and let Lu Jingxiao carry her into the car.
Lu Jingxiao didn't say anything more and drove away from the Luo family villa, during which time he wished he could have a good talk with her.
"Next time something like this happens, call for help. Even if I'm not there, there are other people. You can call Gu Youran if you want."
She's quite strong in combat.
With Gu Youran by Weiwei's side, Weiwei won't suffer any losses.
Luo Zhiwei glanced indifferently at the wedding dress she was holding, as if talking to herself, or perhaps to Lu Jingxiao: "You already have a fiancée, my affairs... have nothing to do with you."
"What?"
"nothing."
Luo Zhiwei looked up again and gazed ahead.
Lu Jingxiao, you already have a fiancée. Don't be so nice to me, or I won't be able to control myself.
I don't want to be a despicable mistress.
My mother was driven to her death by a mistress.
Can you please stop provoking me?
Luo Zhiwei pondered in her heart that she really needed to make a change. If she continued with her current job, when would she be able to pay back the 60 million yuan she owed Lu Jingxiao?
I only have 8 million yuan on hand right now, which is still far from enough.
She needs to acquire the shares of the Luo family as soon as possible so that she will have the money to repay Lu Jingxiao.
He has a fiancée, so he shouldn't be entangled with his ex.
They should keep their distance.
But... to inherit shares in the Luo family, you have to get married, and the marriage has to last for more than six months before you can officially inherit them.
Now that she has her ID card, getting married is just a matter of a word.
Lu Jingxiao focused on driving, glancing at Luo Zhiwei every now and then. He seemed to be mentally preparing himself: "Weiwei, I'm sorry."
"What?"
Luo Zhiwei turned her head to look at him blankly.
Why did you apologize all of a sudden?
"I...I'm sorry, I didn't know Aunt Luo had passed away back then. I...I was abroad, I didn't..."
Lu Jingxiao had been regretting his actions lately. He had investigated the matter of Aunt Luo's death, and whenever he thought of Weiwei facing that pack of wolves and tigers alone, his heart felt like it was being punched hard, suffocating him.
Luo Zhiwei's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes lost all their luster.
She suddenly realized that she was still in the abyss.
"It's okay. I was the one who broke up with you. You don't need to worry about it."
Now that we've broken up, it's his freedom to do whatever he wants.
Moreover, her abrupt breakup, with hundreds of phone calls over three days, demonstrated Lu Jingxiao's determination. It was she who was ruthless, ruthlessly using emotional abuse.
The last text message shattered all his hopes.
Therefore, she had no right to question or comment on what Lu Jingxiao did or where he went.
Seeing her indifferent attitude, Lu Jingxiao's anger flared up instantly. He couldn't bear to say anything to Luo Zhiwei, so he could only angrily step on the gas pedal.
Luo Zhiwei quickly sensed that something was wrong with him.
"President Lu... Lu Jingxiao, why are you driving so fast so late at night?"
Her eyes revealed surprise and a hint of panic.
Lu Jingxiao sensed this very keenly, and thus slowly slowed down.
He was really driven crazy by Luo Zhiwei.
Has he not been serious enough lately?
Can't you see what he means?
"Luo Zhiwei...I.."
Ring ring—
The ringing of his phone interrupted him, and Lu Jingxiao answered it irritably: "Hello."
"Okay, I understand."
"Hang up."
Luo Zhiwei vaguely heard a woman's voice on the other end of the phone and guessed it was Miss Bai.
Indeed, as his fiancée, it's understandable that she should be worried since Lu Jingxiao hasn't returned home this late.
"Weiwei, I was just about to say..."
"Lu Jingxiao, this is not the way to the hospital."
She was familiar with the nearby hospital.
"Didn't you say you weren't going to the hospital? I wasn't planning on going."
Ready to take him home!
Luo Zhiwei nodded knowingly: "Then take me to a place near the company. I live near the company."
Lu Jingxiao's face instantly darkened.
The thought of Luo Zhiwei and Gu Beixiao being alone together in a room made him lose his temper.
It wasn't that she was worried about Weiwei and Gu Beixiao getting involved; she was just simply uncomfortable.
His woman, his rose, how could he keep her in someone else's home?
However, the steering wheel was in Lu Jingxiao's hands; he could drive wherever he wanted to go!
**
Luo Zhiwei kept nagging all the way, but Lu Jingxiao didn't drive to the vicinity of the company until the car entered a community and stopped in front of a villa.
Lu Jingxiao got out of the car quickly, closed the driver's side door, and strode to Luo Zhiwei's side. She wanted to get out of the car, but Lu Jingxiao stopped her.
He held the person in his arms, then deliberately loosened his grip, joking, "Hold onto my neck, or... I might drop you."
Luo Zhiwei was so frightened that she draped one arm around his neck. Lu Jingxiao looked at her startled expression and felt a little smug.
"Hold the wedding dress tight."
I'm holding you.
"Lu Jingxiao, this is inappropriate. Your fiancée is at home. Are you trying to make me a mistress?"
Luo Zhiwei was very resistant.
If she guessed correctly, this should be his and Bai Yuxin's home. If she were to be carried in so openly, people would probably misunderstand and even think she was a mistress, which she couldn't accept.
Bai Yuxin is a good girl.
She couldn't do anything to betray Bai Yuxin.
"It's my home, what business is it of anyone else's?" Lu Jingxiao explained with rare cheerfulness, "Don't worry, there's only Wang Ma at home who takes care of my daily life, no one else."
Luo Zhiwei was somewhat incredulous; how could this be...?
Rumors circulate online that Lu Jingxiao and his fiancée have a very good relationship, often seen entering and leaving the Lu family's old mansion together, suggesting they are living together.
Why isn't Bai Yuxin here?
Lu Jingxiao saw the confusion in her eyes and said through gritted teeth, "You're happy that I'm living with another girl, aren't you?"
"I...I didn't say that."
Her stubborn reaction was something Lu Jingxiao could already sense; Luo Zhiwei tightened the grip on his neck.
Soon, Lu Jingxiao carried her home. He stood by the sofa and said, "Leave the wedding dress here. Tomorrow morning, have Wang Ma find a mannequin to hang it up. I'll take you upstairs to change and check on your knee injury..."
