Chapter 72 I'll Come and Pick You Up
Mu Nanyan was about to get angry as she spoke, and Lu Yiran didn't want their rare harmonious moment to be broken, so he could only change the subject:
"Are you close to that Yutong?"
"Yes, she and I are college classmates. She is the first friend I made after entering college, and now she is my best friend."
"Um."
Lu Yiran didn't ask any more questions, and the room fell into silence again, with only the sound of two people eating.
After a day of getting along, the relationship between Mu Nanyan and Lu Yiran eased a little. Even though neither of them spoke, it didn't feel awkward, but rather a bit warm.
After the two of them finished their meal, Lu Yiran asked someone to come in and pack up their things before going to the next room to rest. Mu Nanyan was the only one left in the ward.
She glanced at the time and it was already past nine o'clock. She played games with Tang Yutong for a while before putting down her phone and preparing to rest.
Mu Nanyan stayed in the hospital for three days. She didn't see Lu Yiran in the next two days, but he asked the housekeeper to bring her some delicious food. Mu Nanyan lived quite comfortably during these days, and Mrs. Lu would come and chat with her when she had time.
After Mu Nanyan's injuries were almost healed, she was ready to be discharged from the hospital. She got up early in the morning and was packing her things when Lu Yiran suddenly appeared at the door of the ward.
"Have you packed your things?"
Mu Nanyan was startled when she heard the voice. She turned around and saw Lu Yiran leaning against the door of the ward, looking at her quietly. Mu Nanyan said in disbelief:
"Why are you here?"
"Grandma said you were discharged from the hospital today and asked me to come pick you up."
In fact, it was Lu Yiran who wanted to come, but he was too embarrassed to admit it, so he could only use his grandmother as an excuse.
"So that's how it is. Actually, I don't need anyone to pick me up. My injuries are almost healed, and it's no problem for me to go back by myself."
"I'm here now, let me take you back."
"All right."
Mu Nanyan packed up her things and Lu Yiran helped her carry them. After Mu Nanyan went downstairs to complete the discharge procedures, she left the hospital with Lu Yiran.
The two went to the underground parking lot together, and Mu Nanyan followed behind Lu Yiran. They didn't say a word on the way. When they walked to the Rolls-Royce, Lu Yiran opened the trunk door and put the things in. Mu Nanyan went directly to the back seat and prepared to open the door to get in.
After Lu Yiran closed the trunk door, he stood there, looking at Mu Nanyan motionlessly. Seeing that he didn't get in the car but kept staring at her, Mu Nanyan asked in confusion:
"What are you doing there instead of going to the station?"
"Are you planning to use me as your driver?"
Mu Nanyan didn't quite understand what he meant. She looked at her hand holding the rear door handle, then looked at the driver's seat. Then she realized that there was no driver today, so Lu Yiran was driving himself. If she sat in the back, wouldn't she be treating Lu Yiran as the driver?
She looked at Lu Yiran awkwardly, not knowing what to say. Now she didn't know what to do. She had never sat in the passenger seat of Lu Yiran's car before. She didn't know whether Lu Yiran meant to let her sit in the passenger seat or to let her, a patient who had just been discharged from the hospital, drive him.
Seeing Mu Nanyan standing there motionless, Lu Yiran didn't know what to say. Wasn't the meaning of his words obvious? Was this woman's ability to understand so poorly?
Lu Yiran finally explained:
"Sit in the passenger seat. I don't want to be your driver."
"oh."
Mu Nanyan released the handle of the rear door and went to the front passenger seat. She opened the door and got in directly.
"Luckily, Lu Yiran still had some humanity and didn't ask me to drive for him. Otherwise, I really don't know who would pick up who from the hospital today."
Lu Yiran also walked to the front, sat in the driver's seat, started the car, left the hospital, and drove towards Yujing Tiancheng.
The two sat in the car without saying a word. The atmosphere in the car was weird. Lu Yiran looked straight ahead, concentrating on driving. He had a stern face, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking at the moment. Mu Nanyan glanced at him from the corner of her eyes from time to time. Fortunately, the relationship between the two had eased a little before, otherwise Mu Nanyan was afraid that Lu Yiran would drive and hurt him.
Yujing Tiancheng
The Rolls-Royce stopped at the door of the mansion, and the butler hurried out to greet them. Mu Nanyan and Lu Yiran got out of the car, and the butler hurried forward to greet them:
"Young Master, Young Madam."
"Um."
Lu Yiran responded lightly. Mu Nanyan didn't say anything, but just nodded to the housekeeper.
Lu Yiran went to the trunk to take out Mu Nanyan's things, and the two of them went to the living room together. The housekeeper was watching from behind. He felt that the relationship between the two seemed to have improved a lot. They no longer quarreled as soon as they met like before. The housekeeper felt a lot more relieved.
Mu Nanyan and Lu Yiran entered the living room together. Mu Nanyan said to Lu Yiran:
"Give me the stuff, I'll take it up and clean it up."
Lu Yiran handed the bag to Mu Nanyan, who took it and turned around to go upstairs and back to her room.
She had been away for a few days, and the room was still the same as before, without any changes. She put the bag on the table, took the dirty clothes in it to the bathroom to wash, and then put the clean clothes in the closet. It was already noon when everything was packed up. When Mu Nanyan came downstairs, Lu Yiran had already gone to work at the company. In the living room, apart from the servants who were cleaning, only the housekeeper was waiting downstairs. When he saw Mu Nanyan coming down, he greeted her and said:
"Madam, do you want to have lunch now? They have already prepared lunch."
"Okay, thank you for the trouble, butler."
"No, this is what I should do."
After the housekeeper finished speaking, he went to the kitchen and asked someone to prepare the dishes. After the dishes were served, Mu Nanyan asked, "Housekeeper, where is Lu Yiran? There are so many dishes today. Is he eating at home too?"
The housekeeper replied respectfully, "The eldest young master was called away by phone after you went upstairs. He seemed very anxious and must be busy with work, but he said he would be back for dinner in the evening."
Mu Nanyan didn't expect Lu Yiran to go to the company again, so he must be very busy at the company today. He actually took the time to pick her up. Mu Nanyan couldn't describe the feeling in her heart. The housekeeper glanced at Mu Nanyan before continuing:
"The eldest young master specifically asked the kitchen to make these dishes. He said you were discharged from the hospital today, so he asked the kitchen to make a few more dishes. Madam, the eldest young master is very good to you. He never noticed these things before, but after being with you, he started to care about others."
Mu Nanyan looked at the dishes on the table. These were the dishes that she ate most of on the day Lu Yiran accompanied her. Mu Nanyan didn't expect that Lu Yiran would even notice these. This was really different from the Lu Yiran she knew before.
