Mu Fan said with a chuckle.
Wei Jun, holding onto his chair, said, "Are you sure you've made arrangements? Someone to pick up Wanyue and the others? Yunzhou repeatedly emphasized before he left that we must pick up his wife on time. In this temperature up north, if you stay outside for half an hour, you'll freeze to death."
Wei Jun was somewhat worried.
Lu Yunzhou was temporarily leading a mission, a mission that no one else could do.
Mu Fan patted his chest and said, "I sent my guard; he's one of my trusted men."
"Slow down, there's a car ahead." Wei Jun saw the jeep ahead.
Mu Fan couldn't stand seeing others ahead of him. The road was quite wide, and there weren't many cars on it. He stepped on the gas and intended to overtake. He was driving fast and quickly passed the jeep.
As a result, Wei Jun only glanced at it.
I saw a familiar figure through the window.
Who else could it be but Qiao Wanyue in the driver's seat?
Wei Jun: "Mu Fan, slow down, Wan Yue is driving."
Mu Fan was stunned. What did you say?
Wei Jun shouted, "Sister-in-law, where are the people who came to pick you up?"
It would have been better if he hadn't shouted, because as soon as he did, Qiao Wanyue stepped on the gas.
They were left far behind.
The car exhaust fumes hit me directly in the face.
With the window open, the fumes filled my face.
Wei Jun knew perfectly well that this was an act of treachery.
"Look what you've done," Wei Jun said disdainfully.
Mu Fan: "Where are my guards?"
Wei Jun snorted coldly.
Is that hard to guess?
But now is not the place to talk; I can only apologize after I see the person in person.
As for Qiao Wanyue, she drove directly to the family compound. There were guards at the gate. Qiao Wanyue explained her purpose. When the guard heard that she was looking for Lu Yunzhou, he asked, "Sister-in-law, no one picked you up. Why did you drive here by yourself?"
Lu Xingxing, who was always talking, got out of the car immediately upon hearing this. "Someone was supposed to pick us up, but they left us waiting for half an hour. Our child caught a cold from the cold. When we arrived, they wouldn't let us get in the car, saying they wanted to throw away the smelly stuff. My sister-in-law got angry and drove the car herself, making him drive back by himself."
If not now, when?
The guard's eyes widened. "Sister-in-law, Deputy Lu went on a mission yesterday and gave instructions to Commander Mu. Commander Mu was called to a meeting today, and he told his guards to wait two hours in advance." He was one of Lu Yunzhou's men, so naturally he had to explain for his superior, otherwise, what if there was a misunderstanding?
Qiao Wanyue's expression softened a bit. "Could you take me to the family compound first? My child is freezing."
The guards knew there was something fishy going on.
But now is not the time to talk about responsibility.
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements first. I'll take you there." He walked over, spoke to another guard, put down his gun, and led them away.
We parked in a clean little courtyard.
"Sister-in-law, you can just call me Xiao Li."
Qiao Wanyue said, "Thank you, Xiao Li."
The courtyard is square and clean, with a wall built around it. There are four rooms in total. Once inside, a wave of heat hits you, and there is a pleasant fragrance in the air.
"Sister-in-law, Vice Director Lu had already painted the walls before you arrived. He's been here these past few nights. The kang (heated brick bed) was heated yesterday. You've been working hard for a day and a night. Why don't you get some rest first? I'll get you some food."
Qiao Wanyue shook her head. "Is there a public bathhouse nearby?"
He thought for a moment, "Yes, you guys pack your things first. I have seven or eight bath tickets left. I'll go back and get them for you, and then I'll take you there together."
Qiao Wanyue gave Xiao Li an approving look, then took out thirty yuan from her pocket. "Xiao Li, could you please get us some food? We can exchange the rest for bath tickets." He didn't want Qiao Wanyue to force him to give it to him.
