Lin Yu stayed at the hospital for a while before leaving. On his way back to the hotel, he stopped by the market to buy some groceries.
Qi Wei had called him earlier, saying that after his wife woke up, she was fine and went to sign contracts with clients.
Lin Yu couldn't help but smile wryly; his wife was truly a warrior. The kind who would risk her life for her work.
Back at the hotel, he put on an apron and went to the kitchen to cook.
After working for more than an hour, the dishes were all ready, and finally the sound of high heels came from outside the door.
"Sister Qi, has the car been taken to the repair shop? By the way, don't tell my husband about the car accident today. I'm fine anyway, and I don't want him to worry!"
"Understood, Mr. Lu!"
The two beautiful women walked into the house while talking.
As soon as she walked in, she saw a table full of food and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Honey, why did you cook so much delicious food today!"
Lin Yu smiled slightly, "I wish you success in closing the deal, this is a reward for you!"
With his sharp hearing, he had clearly heard their conversation, but he didn't want to expose it at the moment.
He knew his wife didn't want him to worry, and he felt a warm glow inside.
Lu Xueqing chuckled, then took Qi Wei's hand and introduced her to Lin Yu, saying, "By the way, Lin Yu, let me introduce you. This is Sister Qi, my new assistant. You don't know, Sister Qi is amazing. She even knows martial arts. I've really struck gold this time!"
Qi Wei glanced at Lin Yu and said somewhat awkwardly, "Mr. Lin, hello, my name is Qi Wei!"
Lin Yu smiled slightly, "Hello, I hope you'll take good care of my wife in the future!"
"Of course, of course!" Qi Wei replied, feeling both humbled and apprehensive.
Lu Xueqing frowned, suddenly feeling something was off.
In her memory, Sister Qi was a very confident and proud woman, so why did she act so timid and submissive in front of Lin Yu?
"Well, Mr. Lu, since there's nothing else, I'll head back now. Just call me if you need anything!"
After Qi Wei finished speaking, she turned to leave, but Lu Xueqing stopped her. "Oh, since you're here, why don't you eat before you leave? Didn't you tell me you also live in Kailai? Come eat here after get off work from now on, my husband is a great cook!"
"Huh?" Qi Wei broke out in a cold sweat.
Should the young marshal cook for her?
How could she possibly afford to accept that!
Besides, this meal was awkward to eat; I might as well have gone back and eaten instant noodles!
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Sister Qi, since my wife has said so, then you can stay. It's no trouble at all; it's just an extra set of chopsticks and a bowl!"
"Uh, okay, alright..."
Since the young marshal had said so, she had no choice but to agree.
The three then sat down to eat.
After dinner, Lu Xueqing went to practice yoga, while Qi Wei went to the kitchen to help Lin Yu wash the dishes.
"Young Marshal, it's my fault for failing to protect Madam!" Qi Wei bit her lip and lowered her head to apologize softly.
Lin Yu paused in washing the dishes and said, "The opponents are five experts in internal energy. You've just entered the Grandmaster realm. It's already very good that you can handle them!"
Qi Wei's beautiful eyes trembled slightly. "Young Marshal, you don't blame me?"
She knew in her heart how much the young marshal loved his wife.
As a servant girl, she made such a big mistake. No matter how much her master punishes her, it is not excessive.
Lin Yu shook his head and said calmly, "No one in this world can guarantee they won't make mistakes! I, Lin Yu, have always believed in not using those I doubt, and not doubting those I use. Since I've asked you to be my wife's bodyguard, it means I trust you! I believe this was just an accident, and you'll be more careful in the future!"
"Furthermore, in my eyes, you are not some kind of servant! You and Feng Jiu are both my subordinates. Putting aside the superior-subordinate relationship, we are also friends!"
Hearing these words, Qi Wei felt a warmth in her heart.
As a maidservant, she was used to being summoned and dismissed at will from a young age. No one considered her a friend.
Whether the other person was sincere or not, she was deeply moved by their words.
Moreover, she had already witnessed Lin Yu's strength and skill.
Even if Lin Yu hadn't said these things, she would have done everything in her power to protect Lu Xueqing.
Just as the two were talking, a woman with a veil wrapped around her head, looking like an Arab returning from abroad, passed by outside.
The woman was none other than Zhang Ailan, who had just returned from playing mahjong outside.
When Zhang Ailan heard someone talking in the kitchen, she assumed it was Lin Yu talking to her daughter.
At first glance, it turned out to be a strange woman!
Goodness, could this guy have found some random woman outside?
She picked up the broom handle and was about to walk to the kitchen when she suddenly stopped.
Thinking that her old arms and legs might not be able to hold up, she went to the living room first and saw her daughter practicing yoga, so she quickly ran over.
"Daughter! How can you still be jumping around like that? That bastard Lin Yu actually found some wild woman to mess around with in the kitchen! You come with me right now and teach him a lesson!" Zhang Ailan cursed and grabbed her daughter, ready to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey, Mom!"
Lu Xueqing quickly shook off her arm, looking speechless, and said, "Mom, can't you be serious! Your daughter is still at home. How could Lin Yu possibly mess around? Besides, he's not that kind of person!"
Zhang Ailan paused for a moment, then frowned and said, "Then, that woman is..."
Lu Xueqing couldn't help but roll her eyes. "She's my new assistant, named Qi Wei. Mom, can you please stop being so suspicious!"
"Assistant!" Zhang Ailan exclaimed, then couldn't help but snort, "Was I being paranoid? I was just worried you'd get hurt! These days, what cat doesn't steal fish? Oh, by the way, I went to see your cousin Fangfang at the hospital today. Oh dear, she was so badly injured. That Chen Siming is a real scoundrel, a complete heartbreaker! Men these days are getting more and more unreliable. No wonder the divorce rate is so high. If you ask me, most young couples these days are just living together for convenience!"
