After spending another night in the hospital, Jiang Yue was discharged the next morning.
After leaving the hospital, Jiang Yue sat in the car, looking at the wound on her forehead in a small mirror. Her brows furrowed deeply. Although the wound on her forehead was not deep and she no longer needed to wrap it with gauze today, it was still a deep bruise because she had bumped it quite hard.
"The injury on my forehead looks quite serious, so I'd better not go home for the next couple of days, otherwise my parents will definitely worry."
Lu's father's health has never been very good, and Jiang Yue was really afraid that he would worry.
Lu Jingnian thought for a moment and nodded.
"Then I won't go back to the villa for the next couple of days."
He has other houses here, so you can stay there for a couple of days first.
"Song Gang went to Lanshan."
Lu Jingnian said to Song Gang, who was driving in front.
"Okay, boss."
Song Gang immediately adjusted the route and drove towards Lanshan, without asking why Lu Jingnian suddenly changed his mind and wanted to go to Lanshan.
Soon, the car stopped in the residential area next to Blue Mountain.
There are also several villas here, at the foot of the mountain. The environment is even more secluded than where they lived before. The only downside is that it's not close to the city center, making it inconvenient to buy things.
This villa has an almost identical decoration style to the villas in the villa area, and the stairs on the second floor have been replaced with an elevator to make it easier for Lu Jingnian to go up and down the stairs.
The room is fully equipped with daily necessities.
Jiang Yue pushed Lu Jingnian to stand in the living room and looked him over for a while before asking him, "Have you been living here all this time?"
Judging from the appearance of this place, it seems that people have always lived here.
"Um."
Lu Jingnian glanced at Jiang Yue, seemingly lost in thought, and quickly nodded obediently. "This place is closer to the hospital. Before you came, I lived here."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue understood. "So you've been here all these years while you weren't home?"
Lu Jingnian nodded, afraid that Jiang Yue would hold a grudge against him, and quickly admitted his mistake.
"Yueyue, I was confused before. I promise I will never have such a stupid idea again."
From the moment he entered the door, he was afraid that Jiang Yue would bring up past grievances with him.
"I already said I won't be angry with you until your leg is healed. We'll settle the score when your leg is better."
Jiang Yue reached out and pinched Lu Jingnian's chin, then pushed him to the bedroom on the second floor.
After giving Lu Jingnian a bath, Jiang Yue told him to go to bed and sleep quietly.
Lu Jingnian hasn't had a proper rest in the hospital these past two days. He only managed to sleep on a small bed last night, barely getting any sleep.
Where are you going?
Seeing that Jiang Yue was about to leave, Lu Jingnian grabbed her wrist and asked her.
"I'll call Hua Hua and then make something to eat," Jiang Yue said.
There was no nanny in the villa, so she was the only one who could cook.
After coming downstairs, Jiang Yue went to the living room, first called Yao Hua to ask about the company's situation, and then called Pei Huai.
Pei Yuan was somewhat surprised to receive Jiang Yue's call.
Upon hearing Jiang Yue's voice, he immediately asked, "Have you been discharged from the hospital?"
He knew about Jiang Yue's car accident and injury on the day of the accident. He went to the hospital to see Jiang Yue, but she was resting at the time and he didn't want to disturb her. He only said a few words to Lu Jingnian and then left.
"Um."
Jiang Yue smiled and said, "The injury wasn't serious to begin with, and I'm fine now. Thank you for your hard work at the company these past two days."
"It's not hard work at all. This is what I should do. Just focus on recovering. I'll take care of things at the company. There won't be any problems."
Pei Huai's voice sounded natural and relaxed, but only he knew how bitter he was inside.
After Lu Jingnian returned, he knew that he had no chance at all.
Although I've decided to move on, I'm starting to learn to let go of this unrequited love that was never going to work out anyway.
"Thank you, Pei Huai."
Even though Pei Huai said that, Jiang Yue was still very grateful to him because he had really helped her a lot.
"Once I'm fully recovered, Lu Jingnian and I will treat you to a meal."
Jiang Yue continued.
Hearing this, Pei Huai on the other end of the phone smiled helplessly. Whether in the past or now, she was always like this, always keeping her distance from the opposite sex. She really didn't even give the other person a chance to deliberately approach her or have some ambiguous misunderstanding with her.
She really loves Lu Jingnian.
Pei Huai really, really envied Lu Jingnian.
"Sure."
He smiled and agreed, "However, I'll be returning to Kyoto in a couple of days. If you two want to treat me to a meal, you'll have to wait until you're back in Kyoto."
"Are you going back to Kyoto?"
Jiang Yue was somewhat surprised, but she quickly understood.
All the projects here have been secured, and the important work has been mostly done. The rest can be handed over to the subordinates.
"Yes, the work here is almost finished," Pei Huai said.
Jiang Yue thought for a moment and asked Pei Huai, "Do you have time tomorrow? I have some things I want to discuss with you, and I'd also like to ask you for a favor."
I can't return to Kyoto for the time being. I plan to go abroad with Lu Jingnian to accompany him to get treatment for his leg.
Hearing that Jiang Yue was going abroad, Pei Huai was a little surprised, but readily agreed, "Okay, see you tomorrow then."
It would be nice to see her one last time before I leave.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yue went to the kitchen.
Just as she was about to boil water, Song Gang opened the villa door from the outside and walked in with a woman in her forties.
"Sister-in-law, my brother asked me to find a nanny a couple of days ago, and I've brought her to you."
As Song Gang spoke, he pointed to the older woman beside him, "This is Sister Chen. She's been a nanny for many years, and I think she's pretty good. Sister-in-law, why don't you let her give it a try first?"
Jiang Yue had no intention of hiring a nanny. She and Lu Jingnian were only staying here for a few days, and she would leave once she recovered. There was no need for such trouble.
She was about to refuse when Lu Jingnian, who was supposed to be sleeping upstairs, suddenly came down.
"Let's let this lady stay and give it a try first."
Lu Jingnian wheeled himself over and looked at Jiang Yue, saying...
“We’ll stay here for a few days, so we don’t need to hire a housekeeper. I can cook for you,” Jiang Yue said.
"Your head injury hasn't healed yet, so you can't overexert yourself."
Lu Jingnian disagreed and directly asked Sister Chen to stay.
Sister Chen was very happy, even though she would only work there for a few days, because they said they would pay her a month's salary.
Seeing that Lu Jingnian insisted on keeping the person, Jiang Yue had no choice but to agree.
With Sister Chen around, Jiang Yue no longer needed to stay in the kitchen. She instructed Sister Chen to boil some water first, and then make some light lunch. After that, Jiang Yue, Lu Jingnian, and Song Gang went to the study.
While bringing Sister Chen over, Song Gang also wanted to talk to Lu Jingnian about going abroad.
He has almost finished arranging things. He wonders if Lu Jingnian has any other instructions for him to take care of.
