The matter of the herbal medicine shop was temporarily resolved, and at lunchtime, Xia Lanying specifically asked the kitchen to add more dishes.
After lunch, Xu Jinnan still felt uneasy and decided to personally order the medicinal herbs to avoid any further mistakes.
It was truly remarkable that the Xu family was able to overcome this difficulty; they can only be more cautious in their future business operations.
Before leaving, Xu Jinnan was not entirely at ease leaving Ru Bao at home.
“Abao, Grandpa has left and probably won’t be back for at least half a month. Be careful while I’m away. Also, keep this card. If Grandma gives you a hard time, just eat out and come back less often.”
She grew up in the Xu family, and there were some things he couldn't do for her. Lan Ying never liked him adopting Ru Bao.
He knew that she would occasionally harass him, but Ru Bao never said a word about it to him.
Xu Rubao looked at the card and shook his head. The Xu family needed money right now.
Although the Lu family did not file a lawsuit, such a large batch of medicinal herbs would require a considerable amount of money to repurchase.
"Grandpa, no need. I still have money. I rarely use the pocket money you give me. Besides, there are experiments at school recently, so I spend most of my time at school. I'll be fine, so don't worry about me. But Grandpa, you must take care of yourself while you're out there."
Xu Jinnan looked at Ru Bao and realized that she was growing up and knew how to take care of herself, which made him feel a little relieved.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief when her grandfather went to buy the medicinal herbs.
She hadn't forgotten what Lu Jingheng had told her before, that she should wait for him the night after tomorrow.
He didn't know how he would enslave her, but for his grandfather's sake, even though he didn't want to see him a hundred times over, he still had to go.
The next day, she went back to school. She hadn't attended any classes the day before, so she had to borrow some notes from a classmate to catch up on what she had missed.
Xu Rubao felt that time flew by during her time at school.
Friday arrived in the blink of an eye. Xu Rubao had just finished class when her phone rang with a message: "At the south gate of the school within five minutes!"
Xu Rubao looked at the unfamiliar number, which ended with three eights.
She took a deep breath; what was bound to happen would happen eventually.
She quickly packed up her textbooks, slung her schoolbag over her shoulder, and ran towards the south gate.
When she ran breathlessly to the south gate, a white Bugatti Laszlo was parked in front of the school.
It's peak time for students to leave school, so many students can't help but glance at the luxury car as they come out of the school gate.
Xu Rubao saw the car lights flash twice, clearly indicating that they were calling her to get in the car.
She hesitated for a moment, but simply didn't have the courage to walk over and get into the Bugatti.
She took out her phone and dialed that number.
Lu Jingheng was getting impatient. She had already walked to the school gate, but she still hadn't come over.
Just as he was about to get off the bus and hand the person over, his phone rang.
He saw that it was a wildcat calling and thought to himself, "Isn't this wildcat incredibly stupid? His car is right in front of her, can't she even see that?"
"Hey, why aren't you coming over yet? Do I have to get out of the car and ask you to come?"
"No...no, Mr. Lu, please don't come out. Could you please drive the car to the back alley?"
Even Lu Jingheng's most astute brain couldn't guess why she made him drive the car into the back alley.
"Why?"
Even over the phone, Xu Rubao could hear the displeasure in his tone.
"Mr. Lu, I'm begging you, I'm begging you."
