Chapter 505 News
That morning, the sisters-in-law in the family compound saw Lin Xia downstairs for the first time.
I had never seen her come downstairs to chat before, so seeing her sitting under the big tree, I couldn't help but feel curious.
Lin Xia wasn't so bored that she came down to chat about gossip. She just felt uneasy being alone at home, so she thought of going downstairs to take a look.
If Lu Yuxiu entered the staff quarters, she would be able to see him at a glance.
All the men in the family have returned, and the sisters-in-law in the family compound feel relaxed and no longer as tense as before. They start gossiping at the top of their voices.
Lin Xia was a natural topic of conversation when she was sitting downstairs. In the past, she was the topic of discussion whenever she passed by. Now that she seldom sat downstairs, everyone couldn't help but pull her aside to ask questions.
Lin Xia waited for the whole morning but no one came back. Not only Lu Yuxiu but also Wu Deye, who was more familiar to her, was nowhere to be seen. She comforted herself by thinking that everything should be fine, but she was still anxious when she didn't see anyone.
She was worried about something, so she gave perfunctory answers when people asked her questions.
After waiting for a whole morning without seeing anyone, Lin Xia went back home. As soon as she left, everyone couldn't help but say a few words about how she was aloof and difficult to get along with.
Some people remembered that Lin Xia questioned her husband last night, and then explained: "Captain Lu hasn't come back yet. She might be worried about her husband."
Everyone was still saying that she was difficult to get along with, but they immediately stopped talking after hearing this. They couldn't help but sigh, "It should be fine. Captain Lu and the others are leaders. They have a lot of things to do. They will be back later."
Knowing this was the reason, everyone stopped talking and changed the subject.
After waiting for another three days without seeing anyone, Lin Xia had no choice but to suppress her anxiety.
Another half a month passed. Lin Xia had just come back from buying groceries when she saw several figures entering the family compound. She couldn't help but run over excitedly.
"Lu Yuxiu!" Lin Xia saw the person in front of her walking very quickly and soon disappeared, so she immediately shouted loudly.
Seeing the figure in front of her stop, Lin Xia ran over happily, but stopped when she saw the person turned around.
After a moment of disappointment, I cheered up again.
"It's my sister-in-law." After being slightly surprised, Song Yu greeted Lin Xia.
Seeing that it was Song Yu, Lin Xia put away her disappointment and soon felt relieved again. His return home meant that they were all back, so she felt relieved.
Lin Xia smiled and said, "You guys are back? What took you so long?"
Just as he asked, he remembered that their mission was confidential, and immediately changed the topic: "It's okay, you are finally back, you are not hurt."
Song Yu paused, and put on a smile to hide the complexity in his eyes, "Sister-in-law, aren't you busy these days?"
"Lu Yuxiu is not at home, so I have to stay at home to look after the two children." Lin Xia explained. If Lu Yuxiu was at home on weekdays, he would come back at night to look after the children, so Lin Xia could go about her work with peace of mind.
Hearing this, Song Yu's expression froze for a moment, but Lin Xia didn't notice.
Then he thought that Han Wei might still be waiting for him at home, so he immediately said, "Go quickly, Han Wei might still be waiting for you, I have to go home too."
There was impatience in her tone and Lin Xia hurried home without waiting for Song Yu to say goodbye.
"Sister-in-law." Seeing Lin Xia rushing home, Song Yu couldn't help but call out to her.
Lin Xia stopped and looked puzzled: "Huh?"
"I mean, Lao Lu hasn't come back yet. He has something else to do, so he may be back late." Song Yu explained in a casual manner, trying to make his words seem not so serious.
Lin Xia, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt her heart tense again. She frowned slightly and was about to ask something, but a sense of uneasiness rose in her heart.
"Song Yu, can you tell me, is this really a mission?" Lin Xia had a feeling something was wrong. There had never been such a thing before, and of course she had never been out for so long.
Song Yu's heart was filled with alarm. He didn't expect Lin Xia to be so alert, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "Of course, you also know Lao Lu's ability."
"Will it be dangerous?" Lin Xia knew what to ask and what not to ask.
Song Yu hesitated for a few seconds, but when he saw Lin Xia's worried look, he said, "Don't worry."
Lin Xia stared at Song Yu for a while, and seeing that her expression showed nothing, she could only choose to believe him.
But having said that, Lin Xia's heart was not at ease at all, especially when she saw that Wu Deye and the others all came back the next day, except Lu Yuxiu.
But with Song Yu's words, Lin Xia had no choice but to suppress her worries and wait.
The two children at home saw that other fathers had returned, but Lu Yuxiu was the only one who didn't come back. They asked Lin Xia about it, and she could only tell the children what Song Yu had said.
Although the two children missed their dad after hearing this, they didn’t think much about it because they had exams to take.
Half a month passed, and there was no news from Lu Yuxiu. But Lin Xia couldn't leave the company's affairs unattended, so she went to Guangcheng midway.
Their company not only produces basic skin care products, but also some skin care products with special effects, such as creams for removing acne and scars.
This product with special effects was accidentally developed by Song Maoxue and his team. After all, in addition to the long-standing demand for this product, the herbal medicine base also grows some other Chinese medicines for trial.
Panax notoginseng and safflower are herbs with this effect. One has the effect of reducing inflammation and removing blood stasis, and the other has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing scars.
This kind of product is not suitable to be sold in cosmetics stores. Lin Xia thought of dermatology. No matter if it is due to injury or something else, anyone who has scars will go to a dermatologist.
Lin Xia then came up with the idea of cooperating with the hospital's dermatology department. After she told Song Huili about the idea, she prepared to return to the hospital.
She was worried because Lu Yuxiu hadn't come back, and she felt even more uneasy when he was not in the family quarters.
But she felt something was wrong as soon as she returned to the family compound. Everyone looked at her strangely, with sympathy mixed with pity.
Lin Xia's heart began to beat wildly, and she turned and walked towards the women's cadres' office. If there was any news, she would definitely know it there.
"Director Zhang!" Lin Xia remained calm and stood at the door, knocking and calling for help.
When Director Zhang saw Lin Xia coming, he felt a little bit sorry for her and knew that it was those people in the family compound who leaked the news.
"Comrade Lin, please come in and talk." Director Zhang knew that she couldn't escape, so he asked her to come in and talk.
Lin Xia felt extremely uneasy, but she still walked in calmly. However, she stumbled as she raised her foot because something was on her mind.
"Hey, be careful." Director Zhang couldn't bear it and there was a hint of sympathy in his eyes.
"Director Zhang, is it Lu Yuxiu..." Lin Xia didn't even realize that her voice was trembling.
Director Zhang looked at Lin Xia. She was always an eye-catcher in the family compound, but this time she looked a little dull, with an unconscious panic on her face.
It was the first time she saw her like this.
