Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties-Chapter 687 - 686: A Bad Premonition

In the hospital room, because of Qin Zeming and his group’s arrival, it became quite lively for a time.

Lin Chun and Lin Qiu kept asking Lin Dong all kinds of questions, worried about where he might be feeling uncomfortable.

Qin Zeming stood to the side, his expression also showing deep concern.

Fortunately, his grandson was really not in serious trouble, otherwise, he would have felt even more guilty.

When he heard Lin Dong and the two Lin Chuns talking about being discharged the day after tomorrow, the old man hurriedly spoke up,

"Lin Dong! Your grandfather thinks you should stay a few more days! The exams at school can be arranged as special cases due to special circumstances!"

Being loved and cared for by so many relatives, Lin Dong was very touched but at the same time, he couldn’t help but feel a bit amused, "Grandpa! I am really fine! Even the doctor said I can be discharged!"

When Qin Zeming saw that his grandson was firm, he simply couldn’t persuade him.

He understood that the child prioritized his studies and didn’t try to persuade him further. Instead, he asked about the details of the incident that had happened, "What did those people look like? Do you still remember?"

"Grandpa! Those kids were caught this afternoon!"

They had been caring for him since they walked in the door, and his older brother-in-law had gone outside to make a phone call, so they hadn’t had the chance to talk about the people being caught.

When they found out that the kids had already been arrested, Qin Zeming and the others all showed satisfied expressions.

"Really? That’s really good news! I was thinking before I came here, if they couldn’t catch them immediately, I’d have to use some old connections, and dig three feet into the ground if necessary, to find those sons of bitches!"

At this moment, Lu Zheng also finished making his phone call and returned to the hospital room.

Qin Zeming thought highly of this son-in-law, and the two of them sat aside and started talking about the details of the captured individuals as well as Lin Xia’s condition.

Soon, Shao Chengzhi arrived in a hurry with Lin Xia and Shao Meirou.

When both parties met, they inevitably exchanged cordial greetings and inquiries.

After a while, Qin Zeming finally couldn’t hold back and spoke a few words to Lin Xia,

"Lin Xia! You tell me, why didn’t you give us any hint during our phone call yesterday? And to act like this while you’re pregnant! What would have happened if something had gone wrong?"

He and his wife had always been worried about Lin Xia not having children after getting married; they had even planned to find reliable people to consult when Lin Xia visited their house.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xia had indeed become pregnant, which lifted a huge weight off their hearts.

But with the pregnancy so hard won, any complications would be throwing away all their previous efforts, wouldn’t they?

Moreover, if she really miscarried, it would cause great harm to Lin Xia’s body, and whether she could have children again would depend on her body’s recovery and fate.

Lin Xia knew that her grandparents truly had her best interests at heart, so she calmly explained, "Grandpa! I am careful and understand my own situation!

How could I have stayed put knowing Dongzi was hospitalized and in trouble? Actually, your rushing over here is exactly how I felt!"

Qin Zeming helplessly nodded; he could understand that feeling.

"That’s true!" he immediately added a but, "But next time something happens, you can’t just keep us in the dark like this!

If it weren’t for Grandfather Lu giving me a call, we would still have been kept in the dark!"

"Alright! Grandpa! Don’t worry, it won’t happen again! I definitely won’t do that anymore!" Lin Xia said, because she was worried about them, which is why she hadn’t informed them sooner.

Everyone stayed in the hospital room for half of the day, until Shao Chengzhi arranged to go out for dinner at a restaurant.

"Old Qin! It’s getting late; let’s find a place to eat something!"

"Alright! I am actually a bit hungry!" Qin Zeming said; he had been so worried that he hadn’t had much of an appetite for dinner.

During the meal, the two elderly men couldn’t help but drink a little wine and reminisce about the past.

Shao Meirou watched Shao Chengzhi the entire time, only letting him gently sip that small cup of wine, not allowing a drop more.

Lin Xia and Lin Qiu sat together, the sisters had not seen each other for a long time and had endless things to say.

Lin Qiu told Lin Xia about the new house they bought, "Sis! Once you have given birth, whenever you come to see, you’ll know. Our aunt helped us find it, it’s spacious and well-laid out."

"Okay! Then, when you guys go back, thank my aunt for me!" Lin Xia was very thankful to Zuo Shimao.

Lin Qiu whispered into Lin Xia’s ear, "Sis! Where do you plan to spend the New Year?"

Lin Xia couldn’t say for sure yet, "I guess at your brother-in-law’s place! But it’s not certain yet!" frёewebnoѵēl.com

Last year, she had spent the New Year at her hometown, and she visited Lu Zheng’s workplace on the third day of the new year,

This year, if nothing unexpected happens, she might go to Lu Guangqi and Shao Chengzhi’s home for the New Year.

But she was pregnant, and if her health didn’t allow it by that time, she very likely wouldn’t fuss about it.

"Big Brother and I feel the same way!" Lin Qiu felt a bit regretful internally, but she knew that being married was definitely different from her single days, many things had to follow local customs.

"Have you guys decided where you’ll spend the New Year?" Lin Xia actually didn’t want Lin Chun and the others to return to Spring City for New Year, but given her elder brother’s personality, she probably couldn’t stop him.

"Big Brother still wants to go back! Dad called a while ago, saying he hasn’t been feeling well and keeps coughing!"

Lin Xia frowned upon hearing this, took a sip of warm water quietly, and didn’t ask further.

Instead, she continued to ask about Lin Qiu and Kang Yijun’s situation, "How are things between you and Kang Yijun?"

Lin Qiu blushed, "Pretty good! But he’s especially busy, only occasionally can he come out to see me!"

"Just take it slow and see how it goes!"

After dinner, Lin Chun took the initiative to say he would stay overnight at the hospital to accompany someone.

The rest of them went to stay at Shao Chengzhi’s house.

...

Meng Xiangzi felt her right eye twitching constantly today, making her anxious and restless.

She couldn’t help but feel a bad premonition rising inside her.

Could it be that Lin Dong’s incident had been discovered and linked to her?

But then she thought, it seemed unlikely!

Even if her brother suspected her involvement, he wouldn’t turn against her and leak it to outsiders.

Moreover, as long as those hooligans didn’t get into trouble and weren’t caught, they wouldn’t reveal anything.

After all, they hadn’t seen what she actually looked like and didn’t know what she really did, so in this vast sea of people, how could they find her?

Therefore, her tense nerves finally relaxed somewhat.

Currently, the theater troupe was busy with intense rehearsals for a major stage drama, preparing for a performance at the New Year, and she dared not slack off at all.

Because the competition for the lead role was fierce, especially since not only Ye Lin, but several other strong contenders were eagerly eyeing the opportunity.

She just managed to endure until the end of the workday, changed clothes with her colleagues, and wheeled her bicycle out the company’s main gate.

Today was her father’s birthday, she had taken a leave of absence in advance, as she needed to visit home.

Meng Xiangzi mounted her bicycle, facing the chilly north wind as she headed home.

The cold and slippery roads demanded all of her attention, which is why at first she didn’t notice the two tails following her behind.

Only when Meng Xiangzi rode into a turning lane did she finally sense that something was amiss...
