"You seem to know the ongoings of the hospital well, why don't you visit Colonel Lin and see how he's doing now for yourself?" With that, Director Lee withdrew himself from the conversation with a look of irritation.
Zhou Weiqi snickered. "It does feel good seeing their misfortunes."
"Don't get too far ahead of yourself." Lu Xingzhi replied, raining on Zhou Weiqi's parade. He continued, "If you want to have some peace and quiet, look for an excuse and leave Jindo City for a few days."
Zhou Weiqi understood immediately. At the end of the day, no matter how much he was hated, they would still come to him for the favor.
"Where are we going?" Having heard what Lu Xingzhi said when he came over, Chen Xuyao was a little thrilled.
Zhou Weiqi pondered for a bit before looking at Jiang Yao, widening his lips to a grin. "Aren't you going back to Nanjiang City the day after tomorrow? It does sound like a neat place to hang out. I will arrive a day before Jiang Yao. Plus, I can look after her for Brother Lu."
"Thanks." Jiang Yao rolled her eyes and thanked him dryly.
Chen Xuyao could not stop but laugh after witnessing their interaction. Interesting, he thought, an intriguing character Jiang Yao was. Even a three-year old toddler could discern her feigned gratitude. To his surprise, he saw Lu Xingzhi's lips curled upward into a smile too.
Interesting.
Suddenly remembering he was here to see Lu Xingzhi, Chen Xuyao said, "Brother Lu, can you come with me? Old General Liang wants to introduce someone else to you."
