Chapter 170 Return
Wang Hua looked at the full bowl of hot and sour noodles, feeling very puzzled.
Why did Qi Heng bring this thing to him?
"This is your boss's favorite. Take your time to enjoy it." Qi Heng patted his shoulder and said meaningfully, "Remember this taste. Your future promotion and salary increase will depend on this."
Wang Hua was confused and just smiled.
"I just saw Su Jiaojiao bringing back two servings of this hot and sour noodles. Are they from the same family?" When Qin Xiuming and Wang Hua were having dinner in the restaurant on the first floor, they saw Su Jiaojiao and Chen Guilan coming in. Su Jiaojiao was carrying this hot and sour noodles, and even the boxes were exactly the same.
"Let me try it, it must be delicious." Wang Hua understood. He opened the box and tasted it. "Not bad, it tastes very good."
Qin Shuang also likes to eat hot and sour noodles, and Qin Xiuming has eaten it before.
After arriving in the imperial capital, Mr. and Mrs. Lu ate a light diet and never ate these snacks, so he stopped eating them too.
Qi Heng still had something to not understand, so he suppressed his laughter and returned to his room. He said to Lu Jingyou, "I didn't expect you to be so concerned about love over friendship. You're full, but I haven't eaten yet!"
"The restaurant on the first floor provides hot water and hot meals 24 hours a day. Can't you just go and eat there yourself?" Lu Jingyou said without looking up from wiping his briefcase. "What does this have to do with valuing love over friendship?"
"She loves hot and sour noodles, but you don't, so you're practicing eating them to make her think you share a common hobby, right?" Qi Heng looked at her with disdain. "You're too cunning. If you don't like it, then you don't like it. Why did you lie to the girl?"
"People's tastes change with the environment. Someone as boring as you will never understand." Lu Jingyou wiped his bag, hung it on the wall, and went to the bathroom to wash his hands. "I'm going out for a while, you can rest!"
"Mr. Lu, her mother is here too. It's not good for you to flirt with her so late at night, right?" Qi Heng knew at once that he was going to find Su Jiaojiao.
"Watch your words. Not everyone is as filthy as you." Lu Jingyou walked out without looking back and knocked on the door next door. It was Su Jiaojiao who opened the door. "Mr. Lu is back. Come in and sit down."
Lu Jingyou walked in and greeted Chen Guilan politely: "Auntie is here too."
"Yes, I'm here." Chen Guilan was sitting on the balcony drinking tea. Lu Jingyou said to Su Jiaojiao, "I just called the doctor. He said that Director Qin is now in a stable mood and can be visited, but the visit cannot be too long. I want to take you to see her."
"Really? That's great." Chen Guilan was overjoyed. "Then let's go now!"
On the way, Lu Jingyou briefly explained Qin Shuang's situation to the mother and daughter: "Director Qin will be transferred to the general ward in a week. Wang Hua and I are staying here not because Director Qin's condition is serious, but because we have other business to attend to at Qingyuan, so we're staying here for the time being. Don't worry."
Now it is Qin Xiuming who is here to accompany Qin Shuang.
They come over occasionally.
Compared with the previous few days, Qin Shuang's mental state was much better. She knew they were coming and made preparations early.
When Chen Guilan saw her, she couldn't help but shed tears. She couldn't accept that such a lively and beautiful person had become like this. She had lost a lot of weight, her face was pale, and there was gauze wrapped around her head.
Qin Shuang, on the other hand, comforted her: "Sister Guilan, don't be sad, at least I am still a complete person."
"Aunt Qin is much better than she was a few days ago." Su Jiaojiao saw that she was in good spirits, and Qin Shuang smiled. "When you came a few days ago, I was still in a daze. It wasn't until today that I finally woke up."
"Take good care of yourself and don't think about anything." When Chen Guilan came, she felt that she had a lot to say to Qin Shuang, but when she saw her, she couldn't say a word.
"How's Ju Peijun?" Qin Shuang looked at Su Jiaojiao, who hurriedly said, "He's much better and can walk now. The doctor said there won't be any sequelae."
"That's good." Qin Shuang finally felt relieved and said to Chen Guilan, "When I get better, let's go to his house for barbecue. We can be considered friends for life and death."
"Okay, we'll go together then." Chen Guilan agreed.
"How's the pajamas order going?" Qin Shuang was still thinking about it.
Chen Guilan then told her that Huang Jiajia had come today. "Boss Yu was not satisfied after inspecting the Jiali Garment Factory. Qimei Garment Factory is also vying for this order, but they haven't decided yet."
"I thought it had already been put into production!" Qin Shuang sighed slightly and was silent for a while before saying, "Which link went wrong?"
"It seems to be the fabric link..." Chen Guilan overheard what Huang Jiajia said, but she didn't know the details.
Looking at Qin Shuang again, she had fallen asleep.
"The patient has talked too much and is tired. You should all leave!" the nurse whispered. "She is not yet ready for such long conversations."
The two of them then left the ward.
Lu Jingyou was sitting on a chair near the door, waiting for them. "Is Director Qin in good spirits?"
"Yes, it's much better than I thought." Chen Guilan felt a little relieved. "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for making it easier for us."
"It's okay. The main thing is that Director Qin's condition has improved quickly. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to get in." Lu Jingyou said to Su Jiaojiao, "School is about to start for you, so you don't have to run here. Once you're transferred to a regular ward, I'll hire a nurse."
"Come over when we're free." Su Jiaojiao met his gaze and smiled.
"Thanks to you, otherwise Xiuming wouldn't be able to handle it alone." Chen Guilan was very moved to see so many people guarding Qin Shuang. The Lu family is still affectionate and loyal.
"Director Qin is Xiuming's mother, and her affairs are also our family's affairs. My grandfather has always wanted to take her to the imperial capital, but Director Qin refused to go." Lu Jingyou's eyes also smiled, and he answered Chen Guilan seriously, "I want to respect the patient's wishes and help her recovery."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu is right." Chen Guilan understood Qin Shuang's feelings very well. If she were in his shoes, she wouldn't want to go to the imperial capital either. "Since she doesn't want to go, then don't go."
Before Qin Shuang got into trouble, she told Chen Guilan during a casual chat that she would never set foot in the imperial capital in her lifetime.
For Qin Shuang, what happened between her and Lu Jiaping was already a thing of the past, and she didn't want to get entangled with it anymore.
There is a road outside the window of the hospital hotel.
It was midnight, and car lights were still flashing past the window. Chen Guilan couldn't sleep, so she asked Su Jiaojiao, "Is Xiuming going to start school too?"
"Well, they start school later, probably around September 7th or 8th!" Su Jiaojiao answered dazedly. Chen Guilan added, "After Xiuming leaves, I'll come over and take care of your Aunt Qin for a few days!"
"Didn't Mr. Lu say to hire a nurse?" Su Jiaojiao meant that after Qin Shuang was transferred to the general ward, they would come to see her when they were free.
"If they need to hire a nurse, then they can. I'll take care of her." Chen Guilan had her own ideas. "Look, at first, she won't be familiar with the nurses. I'll come and take care of her for ten days or half a month. Once they're familiar with each other, I'll go back."
Qin Shuang had a child out of wedlock. Except for her parents who eventually forgave her and helped her take care of Qin Xiuming, almost all of her brothers and sisters stopped associating with her, as they thought she had ruined the family's reputation.
Now that Qin Shuang's parents are gone, other relatives will definitely not show up. Qin Xiuming still has to go to school. Even if there is a caregiver with her, she is still alone.
Qin Shuang had helped her and Su Jiaojiao so much before. If she didn't help now, when would she help?
"Okay, then let's wait until Aunt Qin is transferred to the general ward!" Su Jiaojiao knew what Chen Guilan was thinking. If others were kind to her, she would repay them tenfold.
