"Oh, I almost forgot about that. I'm still holding it warm. Hurry up and eat."
Seeing that the dishes were already laid out, Jiang Manyue leaned forward to smell the aroma of the food.
He looked completely satisfied and quickly picked up a spoon to drink.
Lu Fan breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Jiang Manyue drink the soup.
Then he noticed a footprint at the door and, sensing something was amiss, asked Jiang Manyue.
"Did nothing happen while I was away?"
Jiang Manyue sipped her soup and then placed the soup spoon in the bowl.
Then he took something out from under his pillow, placed it on the table, and said to Lu Fan.
"Um, nothing much, someone just came in, said a bunch of weird things, and then gave me this."
Hearing Jiang Manyue say that someone had come in, he picked up something from the table.
Lu Fan knew what it was, of course; it was for recording. He just couldn't understand why he would give it to his wife.
What's inside?
Lu Fan didn't listen to the contents immediately; he simply put the item into his pocket.
Feeling something was amiss, Lu Fan pressed Jiang Manyue for an explanation.
"Things? What else did he say?"
“He said this was very important and he would definitely come to me to get it back, and asked me to keep it safe for him. I’ve forgotten everything else.”
After finishing a sip of soup, Jiang Manyue thought carefully about what had just happened.
Most of them had been forgotten, but a few words were remembered and said to Lu Fan.
Lu Fan touched the recording pen in his pocket, then looked at Jiang Manyue with a serious expression and said...
"Honey, don't tell anyone about this."
"Don't worry about that. I knew this must be of great importance, otherwise he wouldn't have come to me and put it in my hands."
Jiang Manyue understood what Lu Fan meant.
When Jiang Manyue got her hands on this item, she knew things wouldn't be that simple.
Knock knock knock!
Who's here?
Jiang Manyue, who was eating the food Lu Fan brought back, heard someone knocking on the door and looked at Lu Fan to ask.
Faced with Jiang Manyue's question, Lu Fan shook his head and then called out to the door.
"I don't know either, please come in."
"Mr. Lu, this is Zhang He. I heard that your wife is also in this hospital, so I came here specifically to visit."
Hearing Lu Fan say that he could come in, Zhang He opened the door a crack and smiled at Lu Fan.
"You came empty-handed like this? You really have no manners."
Lu Fan recognized the person who came in at a glance.
He had seen him at a meeting at Shanggong Group, and then said to Zhang He in a deliberately joking manner.
"Well, Mr. Lu, I came in a bit of a hurry this time. I will definitely bring some tonics to visit your wife next time."
Zhang He was embarrassed by Lu Fan's words and couldn't save face.
He quickly said to Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue.
"Xiao Zhang, don't listen to Lu Fan. That guy is really bad."
Jiang Manyue rolled her eyes at Lu Fan, then smiled and said to Zhang He.
"Oh, sister-in-law, I have something I'd like to discuss with President Lu."
After hearing Jiang Manyue's words, Zhang He felt somewhat at ease.
Then he remembered the purpose of his visit and said to Jiang Manyue with a smile.
"Go find him."
Jiang Manyue knew Zhang He was there to see Lu Fan the moment he entered.
Hearing Zhang He's words, he also looked at Lu Fan and said.
"Just say what you have to say here. There's nothing my wife can't hear."
Seeing Jiang Manyue's gaze, Lu Fan turned to Zhang He and said.
"That's not what I meant. Actually, I came here to ask Mr. Lu why he was at the restaurant earlier."
After hearing Lu Fan's words, Zhang He looked awkwardly at Jiang Manyue lying on the bed.
Seeing that the other person's eyes were already showing some displeasure, he quickly waved his hands and explained to Jiang Manyue.
Jiang Manyue's previously cold gaze returned to normal.
Jiang Manyue continued to drink the soup in her bowl with a spoon. In fact, she also wanted to know why Lu Fan hadn't come back for so long.
What exactly did they do?
"How did you know I was at the restaurant? I went there to buy food for my wife, of course."
Upon hearing Zhang He's question, Lu Fan calmly answered Zhang He's question.
"Mr. Lu, do you know? I received news tonight that Gu Hai's younger brother, Gu He, would be there. I've been waiting there for a long time, but you showed up. And when Gu He appeared, he must have communicated with you, right?"
Zhang He looked at Lu Fan, who refused to admit it at all.
I had thought of this when I came back, and I didn't expect Lu Fan to tell the truth.
They were just trying to see if they could get any useful information out of Lu Fan.
"Hmph, so according to you, since you've already seen Gu He meet with me, why didn't you just grab him? What are you doing here looking for me?"
He was shocked to hear that Zhang He had seen him meet with Gu He.
But then he thought again and realized that there was a huge flaw in Zhang He's words, so he calmed down and retorted to Zhang He.
"Um, that's true. We didn't get a clear look at whether that person was Gu He or not, so I came here to ask President Lu, what did he look like when you were facing him?"
They originally wanted to provoke Lu Fan, but Lu Fan reacted immediately.
He froze, somewhat embarrassed, and said to Lu Fan.
"Hmph, what right do you have to ask me? If you want to ask, have your chairman call me."
Lu Fan angrily smashed the cup on the ground.
Then he walked up to Zhang He, pointed at Zhang He, and said.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, I'm sorry to bother you, I'll be leaving now."
Startled by Lu Fan's sudden smashing of the cup, Zhang He immediately realized he had made a mistake.
In his eagerness to capture Gu He, he forgot about Lu Fan's identity and quickly withdrew.
Jiang Manyue was not intimidated at all. After listening for a while, she realized that Zhang He was the kind of person who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
If we don't teach them a lesson, they'll definitely take advantage of us.
"A nobody like him dares to question me. Shanggong Group needs to be reformed, otherwise anyone will dare to cause me trouble."
Lu Fan was really angry at Zhang He's behavior just now, and then he turned his head to look outside and said.
"It's all because you don't show off, and these people might have forgotten about you."
The Lu Fan of today is no longer the one Jiang Manyue first met, and she said to Lu Fan with a hint of helplessness.
"Once the baby is born, I can finally relax and enjoy life."
"At that time, you can also be by my side and give me advice..."
