Zhou Weiqi did not expect the reply. He was a little startled and resumed his cooking; his cheerful whistling replaced by a heavy silence.
Chen Xuyao chuckled, "Weiqi seems to think that he'll have a few more months to have fun and go after the girl he likes."
Before he could add more to Zhou Weiqi's misery, Lu Xingzhi's cell phone rang.
Liang Yueze called. He wanted to know about the happenings at the hospital; as both Mr. and Mrs. Du, along with Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Ning were right outside their house wanting to see Lu Xingzhi and apologize for what happened in the afternoon.
"Ask them to go back to where they came from, I don't care for their apologies," Lu Xingzhi said. His eyes were fixated on Jiang Yao's hand as he was speaking. She was sitting right next to him and was in a conversation with Chen Xuyao regarding architectural designs.
"I got it." Liang Yueze understood that Lu Xingzhi did not want to see these people at all.
Hanging up the call, Lu Xingzhi casually tossed his cell phone onto the bed.
Moments after they left the hospital, Lu Xingzhi received a call from Du Shihua; he was not in the mood and turned his cell phone off. He did not expect the Du family to actually look for the Liang family.
It seemed to be the most logical outcome though, as they did not know where Lu Xingzhi lived. The only way to reach him was through Liang Yueze.
"Brother Liang?" Chen Xuyao casually asked. "Is he coming over with Ruoran?"
"Nah, they're busy tonight." Lu Xingzhi repeated what was told to him over the phone.
