Chapter 379 Mr. Lu, Nanxia is back!
Last night she lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Early this morning, Zhouzhou and Qiaoqiao came over to ask her about it...
Mrs. Song, who had been resting on the sofa for two hours, was awakened by the ringing of the phone. She picked up the phone, glanced at it, and answered. Xia Xia's anxious voice came from the other end:
"Auntie, has Shen Shaohui said anything?"
“He was going to speak last night, but he suddenly fainted and hasn’t woken up yet,” Madam Song said, turning to look at the old man who had been lying on the floor all night.
"Where are you now, Auntie?" Nan Xia asked again. Was that old man pretending to faint? She wanted to go and check on him.
"He's at Shen Shaohui's villa. He should wake up today, and then we'll know where Yanzhi is. Don't worry." Madam Song was delighted to see how worried she was about her son.
"I'll go take a look then." She hung up the phone after saying that, and Zhouzhou, who was standing next to her, suddenly said, "Mommy, we want to go too."
"You two stay here. I'll call you if I get any news. You won't be able to sleep at night if you see those bloody scenes, so listen to me," Nan Xia said, patting her son's head.
“…Okay.” Zhouzhou wasn’t afraid, but she was afraid of scaring her younger sister, who was timid.
"Let's go have breakfast." She took her daughter's hand and walked to the dining room. Just as she was pulling out a chair, her elbow suddenly knocked over the whole pot of porridge that the maid was carrying. It fell to the ground with a thud, splattering seafood porridge everywhere and covering her skirt with a layer of porridge.
"Miss Nan, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to bump into you. Are you hurt?" The old maid was startled and quickly apologized to her. This was the young mistress of the Song family.
Nanxia got some splattered on her calves, and it burned a little, but she didn't blame the maid. "It's my fault too. I didn't see you behind me. I'll go wash it off. It's okay. You can clean up the floor."
"Do you need my help?" the maid asked with guilty concern.
"No need." Nan Xia went to the washroom on the first floor and rinsed her calves with cold water for a while, which eased the pain. Her skin was only a little red, but there were no blisters, so it wasn't serious.
Even after washing, there's still a layer of oil stuck to the hem of the skirt, making it damp and clinging to my legs.
The two kids ran over and asked, "Mommy, is your leg okay?"
"It's nothing, it's just a little red. Let's go have breakfast."
Nanxia led her concerned son and daughter outside, and the maid immediately brought her burn ointment and carefully applied it to her.
About half an hour later, after having breakfast with her two children, she got into the car with her two bodyguards and asked them to take her back to her apartment.
At this moment, Lu Qinghe was still embracing his assistant, lying naked on her bed.
Perhaps it was lying on Nanxia's bed that made the man uneasy, worried that she might return at any moment. Lu Qinghe woke up first. He glanced at the woman still fast asleep on his chest, nudged her, and called out:
"Get up."
"It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?" Duan Xue slowly opened her eyes, then closed them again, wanting to hold him like this forever, and one hand teasingly slid down to his lower abdomen.
"Stop fooling around, what if Nanxia comes back? Get up quickly." Lu Qing and Shen Sheng said, removing her hand, but Duan Xue deliberately touched it again, acting coquettishly:
"She must be worried sick about that guy surnamed Song right now. Why did he suddenly come back?"
"Didn't you hear what Shen Shaohui said last night? His wife was captured by Nanxia, right? They must have found Song Yanzhi by now. Get up quickly." He threw away the woman's hand, lifted the covers, got out of bed, and went to wash up.
Duan Xue reluctantly got out of bed. Suddenly, she heard the sound of someone entering a password outside. She was instantly startled and instinctively covered her chest with both hands. She was completely naked, and although Nan Xia was a woman too, being seen like this was still very embarrassing.
"President Lu, Nan Xia is back!"
She ran frantically to the bathroom door and called out. Hearing her words, Lu Qinghe's heart leaped into his throat. He glanced at the naked woman and angrily shouted at her:
"Then why don't you hide? What are you still standing here for? You're so stupid."
He suddenly remembered the messy bed, and cold sweat broke out all over his body. He immediately called out to her:
"Wait a minute, go and make the bed, and pick up the clothes on the floor before you take them! I'll go and hold the door open temporarily, hurry up!!"
Lu Qinghe spoke coldly, not caring that he was only wearing a short white bath towel, and immediately walked quickly to the door. Just as the door was about to be pushed open, he braced himself against it with one hand!
Nanxia entered the password, slid the doorknob down, and pushed the door, only to find that the door wouldn't open. What was going on?
broken?
She pushed harder, but still couldn't move it.
Lu Qinghe nervously braced himself against the door while glancing towards the master bedroom, wondering if the woman had finished hiding.
After pushing a few more times, Nan Xia turned to the bodyguards behind her and said, "Come here and push it for me. It's strange, why can't the door be opened suddenly?"
"Yes, Miss Nan." The two bodyguards responded respectfully, walked over, and gathered their strength... Suddenly they rammed into the door, but at that moment, Lu Qinghe abruptly opened it!
The two bodyguards rushed in without being able to stop and almost fell!
Nanxia suddenly noticed the man standing at the door wearing only a bath towel. She frowned and awkwardly looked away... Why wasn't he dressed properly?
She went inside and asked, "Don't you wear clothes in the morning?"
"Excuse me, I just got up. I heard a noise at the door and came over. By the way, is there any news about Attorney Song? Has he been found?" Lu Qinghe asked with great concern.
"We haven't found him yet, there's no news for now..."
Nanxia's gaze swept over his loose bath towel, but she didn't explain in detail. She glanced around the living room, where the sofa cushions were crooked and a faint perfume scent wafted in the air. It wasn't her usual woody fragrance, but a sweet floral and fruity one.
Did this man wear perfume?
He never used to wear perfume.
"Don't worry too much. The Song family is so powerful, they'll definitely find him soon," Lu Qinghe reassured him.
"Okay." She nodded and walked straight towards her bedroom. "I'm going to change my clothes. You go ahead and do your thing."
Lu Qinghe glanced at the two bodyguards standing inside the room and dismissed them, saying, "Why don't you two wait outside for a moment?"
The two bodyguards gave him a cold look, then left, closing the door behind them.
Nanxia walked into her bedroom, glanced around, and felt that there was a strange smell mixed with the same floral and fruity fragrance as in the living room.
The bed was made the same way as yesterday, but it didn't seem as neat and tidy as it had been yesterday. Had someone slept in this room?
Duan Xue knelt in the shadows, her legs numb as if a million ants were biting them, her heart pounding in her chest, praying that the woman would leave quickly.
Nan Xia suddenly bent down and looked under the bed... Lu Qinghe, who had just followed her to the door, saw her action and his heart jumped into his throat!
She noticed something was amiss?
Was Duan Xue hiding under the bed?
Nan Xia sat up straight, not seeing anyone under the bed. Lu Qinghe suppressed his nervousness and asked calmly, "What are you looking at?"
