Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 186: Wait for Me to Return

It took her another half an hour to come downstairs after washing up and changing her clothes.

Ye Han came out of the kitchen with soup, seeing Zhuang Shuqing descending from upstairs, she smiled affectionately, "Shuqing, tired? Come have some soup."

Zhuang Shuqing’s entire face flushed red upon hearing this, as if her privacy had been invaded.

"What, didn’t sleep well?"

"Cough cough~" The butler couldn’t stand it any longer and came over to remind Ye Han, "Madam, the soup will cool down in a bit."

"Right, look at me, Shuqing, come over here."

Zhuang Shuqing braced herself and walked over, only to find that it was just the two of them in the dining room. She asked puzzledly, "Mom, where are Jinyang and... Dad?"

"In the study room, butler, please call them over."

While speaking, Ye Han pulled Zhuang Shuqing to sit down and lovingly served her a bowl of soup, "You’re too thin, you need to nourish yourself properly."

"Thank you."

Zhuang Shuqing didn’t dare drink first since Lu Jinyang and his dad had not yet come over.

Soon, Lu Jinyang and Lu Zhiyuan came down from upstairs and walked toward the dining table. She suddenly looked up and met Lu Jinyang’s deep, dark eyes, promptly averting her gaze in embarrassment."

Why did she always feel like she had done something guilty?

"Come on, Shuqing, don’t be shy at home, eat up."

She nodded her head, refusing to carelessly look around again, and focused on eating her meal.

During the meal, Lu Jinyang and Ye Han kept adding food to her bowl. She felt embarrassed to refuse and just accepted it all. In the end, she realized she had eaten too much when her stomach began to feel noticeably bloated.

After dinner, Ye Han wanted them to stay for another bowl, but Lu Jinyang declined.

On the way back to the city center, Zhuang Shuqing asked him, "Why did we leave so hurriedly?"

Lu Jinyang turned his face towards her, his eyes gleaming with a hint of teasing, "The bed at home rolls just the same."

She: "..."

Turning her head away, Zhuang Shuqing refused to look at him, but she could hear low laughter coming from beside her. After a while, his voice echoed again in the car, saying, "There are some matters to handle."

"Oh."

-

Lu Jinyang dropped Zhuang Shuqing off at Jinxiu Garden and then left. Before she got out of the car, he pulled her into an embrace for a long French kiss. After the kiss, he rubbed her head and said in a coaxing tone, "Be good, take a shower early, I’ll be back soon."

Even though it was a very ordinary phrase, Zhuang Shuqing heard it with a flushing face and burning ears.

She definitely didn’t have as thick a skin as him and hurriedly exited the car.

After the passenger door was closed again, Lu Jinyang watched her figure disappear around the corner before withdrawing his gaze.

He took out his phone and dialed Gu Chen’s number, asking solemnly, "How’s the investigation going? ......Good, I’m on my way."

——

Half an hour later, in the General Manager’s office at Mo Entertainment Studio

Gu Chen looked helplessly at Lu Jinyang, who was cold from head to toe, and sighed deeply as he said, "I called him in the morning, he didn’t answer, and now his phone is off."

Lu Jinyang’s brows were furrowed, "He didn’t return to the military area either."

"That’s strange. How can such a large living person just disappear?" Gu Chen seemed to think of something, his gentle face filled with surprise, "Could it be related to that woman from that night?"

After saying this, Gu Chen shook his head, "It’s not likely."

"Why isn’t it possible?"

Gu Chen was taken aback, after hesitating for a moment he exclaimed in surprise: "Could it really be related to that woman!"

Lu Jinyang, however, did not respond to his question, but instead said, "Go check if Lu Xiao is dating Qin Zhao’s daughter."

Qin Zhao?

He knew who Qin Zhao was, but how could Lu Xiao have any relation with his daughter?
