Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Married woman? Steal it.
After watching Lin Mo walk out of the conference room, Lu Yanxiao turned around and saw a terrifyingly cold expression on his face. His eyes were filled with gloom as he stared directly at Yu Ke and said something that was enough to scare him to death.
"If you can't even control the machine you designed, should I consider investing with someone else?"
Yu Ke's heart skipped a beat. Master Lu had lost his temper before, but he had never said such harsh words. He was throwing away all the friendship we had shared for so long! Yu Ke regretted his impulsiveness and raised his left hand to smack the back of his right hand twice.
"Boss Xiao, I was wrong, I was wrong. I really didn't pay attention and made a mistake. I promise there won't be a next time."
Lu Yanxiao sneered and walked out with his assistant Wang Qianli.
When passing by Dr. Zheng, he glanced at him and said, "And you, take care of your patients."
"Me? What's wrong with me?" Zheng Shize felt wronged and unconvinced, touching Yu Ke's arm. "I didn't offend him. What happened to you just now? Why did you make him so angry?"
Yu Ke lowered his head to pack up the data cable he brought with him and replied casually, "I did it on purpose."
"You did it on purpose. What's wrong with you?" Zheng Shize hooked Yu Ke's neck, wanting to beat him up.
"Confirm one thing."
"What's up?"
Yu Ke deliberately kept it a secret: "The girl's name is Lin Mo."
"What happened to Lin Mo? What does this have to do with Lin Mo?" Zheng Shize helped Yu Ke put the tablet into his bag. He was really curious.
Yu Ke rolled his eyes at him and let him figure it out for himself.
Who among these friends who are close to Lu Yanxiao doesn’t know “LM”?
Zheng Shize gradually came to his senses. "Lin Mo, that airplane model pendant, LM? No wonder you winked at me when Lin Mo said she was working in airplane design. I thought there was something wrong with you."
"Get lost, you're the one with the problem."
Zheng Shize still found it hard to believe. In fact, compared to Yu Ke, he and Lu Yanxiao were not that close. When he heard about such a person a long time ago, he once thought it was nonsense. After all, few people had actually seen the airplane model. How could it be found suddenly?
"Is it really her?"
"How could this be true? He lent her his regular phone. He was originally scheduled to come to the hospital for a meeting next week, but it was suddenly moved up to today. He also has to make rounds at the hospital for the next three days. Aren't these three days the same time Lin Mo is hospitalized? And think about it, when it comes to projects, he usually just takes the brunt of the work. When has he ever been so hands-on?"
After hearing what Yu Ke said, Zheng Shize believed it.
But he suddenly realized something very bad: "However, from what I understand, the girl has a fiancé and is about to get married. I heard from the nurse that she was seen looking at photos of wedding dresses and suits in the ward."
Yu Ke almost jumped up in astonishment: "And she's a married woman!"
"Lu Yanxiao doesn't know?"
"With his skills, how could he not know? He must have known it last night."
"Knowing this, why would he do this?"
"You don't understand Master Lu's personality yet. What can you do by robbing him?"
After thinking about it carefully, they realized that Lu Yanxiao was really capable of doing such a thing. They both shuddered at the same time, and suddenly felt a crazy and terrifying feeling as if a storm was about to come.

In the hospital parking lot, the luxurious Rolls-Royce has been parked for a long time. Although the sun is shining outside, the atmosphere inside the car has fallen into an icy cave.
Wang Qian handed the tablet to Lu Yanxiao: "Boss, I've sorted out the information about Miss Lin's fiancé. His name is Xu Tingzhou. He currently works at Kongying Technology as a project manager in the marketing department."
"When's the wedding date?"
"Eighteen days later, the fourth day of the first lunar month."
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da…
Lu Yanxiao tapped his fingertips lightly on the screen, staring at Xu Tingzhou's photo thoughtfully. Eighteen days, there's still time.
"Boss, there's one more thing." Wang Qian carefully chose his words and continued, "Miss Lin's fiancé seems to be very close to Kong Ying's daughter. Last week, the two of them went on a trip to Bali together."
"What did you say?" Lu Yanxiao raised his eyebrows slightly and sat up straight suddenly.
Wang Qian's heart trembled, and he carefully opened another file on his phone: "This is the record of their hotel stay."
Lu Yanxiao glanced at the contents of the document and then shifted his gaze to the window.
He suddenly remembered the girl's demeanor when she spoke to him in the hospital conference room. Her soft and gentle voice was like a warm spring breeze. Beneath her gentleness, her thoughts were extremely clear. Every word and every sentence hit the key points accurately. From time to time, her eyelashes twitched slightly in excitement when her guess was confirmed.
The girl in his memory became richer and fuller at that moment. Such a bright and dazzling person finally appeared in front of him in reality, even better than he remembered.
How could any bastard treat her like this?
Lu Yanxiao unconsciously tightened his grip on the phone. After a moment, he slowly asked Wang Qian, "Does she know?"
Wang Qian shook his head: "Ms. Lin probably doesn't know that the wedding dress, formal wear, and wedding photos are all proceeding as normal."

She was in the hospital for three days. On the morning of the fourth day, after a series of follow-up examinations, she was successfully discharged from the hospital with the doctor's consent. The kind-hearted person who found the phone also contacted her, asked for her address, and said that he would "deliver" the phone to her immediately.
Lin Mo was filled with the feeling of freedom and happiness, and couldn't wait to run back home.
Because of this business trip and hospitalization, I haven't been back to my home in the city for more than ten days. As soon as I opened the door, the feeling of filthiness that had been enclosed for a long time hit me in the face, and even the leaves of the green plants were covered with a thick layer of dust.
Lin Mo reached out and fanned her nose. It smelled so bad that she couldn't stand it for even a second.
She immediately put down the box, opened all the windows, rolled up her sleeves, and spent over an hour thoroughly cleaning the house. Afterwards, she took a shower and lay down on the sofa in the living room to rest. Not long after, the courier delivered the phone to her door.
After getting the phone, Lin Mo charged it immediately.
The first thing he did after turning on his phone was log in to WeChat and send a message to Lu Yanxiao: [Mr. Lu, I'm home from the hospital and have my phone back. Thank you for lending me your phone these past few days. Please give me your address and I'll return it to you.]
Then, Lin Mo took out the receipts that had been printed in advance at the hospital from her bag, and transferred the money that Lu Yanxiao had advanced for her according to the total amount on it.
Lu Yanxiao didn't take the money immediately, but only replied: "I'm busy now, I'll give you the address later."
Lin Mo: [Okay, I'll wait for your news.]
"The other party is typing" appeared at the top of the screen. Lin Mo thought Lu Yanxiao had something else to say to her, but after waiting for a long time until the "typing" sign disappeared, nothing came from the other end.
But still no money was collected.
Lin Mo reminded him: [Mr. Lu, don’t forget to accept the money.]
Lu Yanxiao: [OK]
After watching Lu Yanxiao receive the transfer, Lin Mo exited WeChat and checked the missed calls and unread text messages on her phone.
Nowadays, with the Internet, the frequency of phone calls is extremely low. The missed calls are basically from advertisements or communication platform numbers. There are a few unread text messages, and without exception, they are all wishing her a happy wedding.
Lin Mo jumped up from the sofa, she realized that she had forgotten something very important.
Although she had never lived with Xu Tingzhou, they had been dating for a year after all, and some of the garbage was left in her house, such as umbrellas, cups, scarves, books and other small items. She didn't want to see these unlucky things again by accident.
After searching carefully at home for a few times, Lin Mo threw all the things related to Xu Tingzhou into a cardboard box, packed them all and sent them to him.
From then on, let this person completely disappear from her world!
As for the invitations that have already been sent out and the wedding date that has already been announced...
Lin Mo was overwhelmed.
She lowered her eyes and sighed.
Grandpa is in poor health, and his only wish now is to see her get married and have a happy family.
Lin Mo didn't want to upset the old man, so during the days he was in the hospital, she hadn't announced or told anyone about the wedding cancellation. She planned to tell her grandfather about her breakup with Xu Tingzhou in person after he was discharged, in a way he could accept. This would give him time to come to terms with it, and she would then tell everyone else once he was settled.
Lu Yanxiao told her to return the phone later, and since it might take some time, Lin Mo drove to the nursing home where her grandfather was.
The sanatorium is built in the south of the city, nestled against the mountains and beside the water, with pleasant scenery.
Lin Mo told her grandfather about her visit on WeChat before she came. When she arrived, the staff were pushing him in the yard to bask in the sun. The old man had a thick blanket covering his legs and kept looking towards the gate with anticipation in his eyes.
"Here I come."
The nurse patted Lin Jingwen's shoulder and waved to Lin Mo, "Miss Lin, you are finally here. The old man has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Nonsense, I just came out to bask in the sun because the weather is nice today." Lin Jingwen was unconvinced and pretended to take the bag from Lin Mo's hand, "Qingqing, come here, let grandpa hold it for you."
Qingqing?
Why did Grandpa call her Qingqing? They were fine when they contacted each other on WeChat before, so why is he confused again now?
Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat and she exchanged glances with the nurse. The nurse frowned and nodded at her.
When she was very young, a fortune teller told her that her five elements lacked water, and that a name containing water would bring her good fortune. Grandma, seized with fear, consulted the dictionary and nicknamed her "Qingqing." My parents and grandpa didn't believe it, jokingly calling her "feudal," but she ignored them, always calling her "Qingqing, Qingqing."
But it was only used for more than a year. After my grandmother passed away, this nickname disappeared like the wind and no one mentioned it again.
Three years ago, Grandpa suddenly suffered a stroke and his health was much worse than before. He was confused from time to time. When he was in a state of confusion, he always called her "Qingqing". I don't know if he was thinking of Grandma or herself back then. This became one of the signals for her to judge Grandpa's physical condition.
It seems that grandpa is not in good condition these days.
Lin Mo forced a smile, put the lightest bag on Lin Jingwen's legs, and deliberately joked with him: "Oh, old man, you are in good health. Thank you!"
"It's just a small gift." Lin Jingwen held the bag tightly with pride, glanced at the nurse, and said, "Oh, right, clothes! The new clothes Qingqing bought for me have arrived."
The nurse smiled and said "Hey", and while pushing the old man into the room, she said to Lin Mo, "It's the dress you wore to your wedding. It was delivered two days ago. He was reluctant to try it on and insisted on waiting for you to come. He said his granddaughter has good taste. We don't understand."
Lin Mo smiled weakly.
Watching the old man happily trying on clothes, the words on the tip of my tongue just wouldn't come out.
"How is it?" Lin Jingwen asked.
Lin Mo nodded vigorously and gave a thumbs up: "Beautiful!"
"Of course, my granddaughter's taste can't be bad." Lin Jingwen was in high spirits. He looked in the mirror again and again. Slowly, his eyes seemed to become clearer. He looked around and asked, "Hey, Lin Mo, didn't Tingzhou come with you?"
"No, he's been busy with work these days."
Lin Mo made up an excuse and still didn't have the courage to tell him about the breakup. She said, "Let's wait a little longer. Usually, a minor confusion like that of Grandpa will pass in two or three days. It's not too late to tell him then."
In the evening, the sunset glowed the sky red and the sanatorium became quiet and peaceful.
The elderly gradually returned to their rooms. Lin Mo said goodbye to Lin Jingwen and left the nursing home. She got back into the car, but before she could fasten her seatbelt, her phone vibrated. She glanced down and saw a message from Lu Yanxiao.
Lu Yanxiao: [Mobile phone sent here]
Attached to the back is an address location, which is L Hotel in the southeast area of Shaofeng City.
Lu Yanxiao: [Top Floor Club]
Lin Mo: [Okay, I'll be right there]
After replying to Lu Yanxiao, Lin Mo started the car.
