Chapter 925 - A Gift (2/2)
Jian Qingying came over to take care of Xia Ruoxin every day. Even though there were nurses in the hospital, she still felt worried and wanted to come over personally herself. She also got Qin Xuejuan to make a pot of soup for her daughter.
Xia Ruoxin had the soups that Qin Xuejuan made the last time she was sick so the latter knew what kind of soup she liked. Therefore, Xia Ruoxin would finish all the soup each time.
She got better by the day, but like before, she refused to speak of her past and how she got hurt.
They had to talk about eventually, but now was not the time.
Lu Jinrong had brought her a number of books to kill time recently. However, she would be able to return home soon if there were no problems. She would only fully recover after six months or so or recuperation.
“Chu Lui is about to get engaged to Xia Yixuan,” Lu Jinrong said plainly as he watched Xia Yixuan’s reaction.
“Really?” Xia Ruoxin did not react much, but her heart was already dead.
“How they are has nothing to do with me.” Her biggest link to Chu Lui was Rainy. Now that Rainy was gone, Chu Lui could marry whoever he wanted. She just wondered how ironic it would be for him to keep his mother’s murderer by his side.
“Brother, I have something I would like you to pass to them as a gift.” Xia Ruoxin set her book down as if she had thought of something.
She really did have a gift for them. She just hoped that they would have a happy marriage and be at each other’s throats.
Inside a bar, this was where Lu Jinrong and Chu Lui used to frequent. It was quiet and expensive of course, but the two of them were used to it. After a while, the two of them sat across from each other.
“My sister asked me to pass something to you all. This is what she got from Xia Yixuan. I guess it’s returning it to the owner.”
Lu Jinrong said as he lifted a heavy object and placed it on the table. “She said that you will like it.”
Chu Lui looked down and stared at the bag on the table. Why would someone gift this? Was it some kind of explosive inside?
However, he really did pick up the bag and set it down next to himself.
“Thank your sister on my behalf.”
“You’re welcome.” Lu Jinrong really needed not to push it. He did not think of how Chu Lui had given and traded himself in for the Lu family’s peace. But to Chu Lui, helping Lu Xiaohua was just a simple gesture.
He was not bothered if they were going to thank him. He was not short on thanks anyway.
Neither of them was chatty so they each took a side of the table as they chatted on and off.
After that, Chu Lui left with the bag. By the time he got home, it was already late. He got out of the car, only to recall that there was a bag in the car. He returned, picked it up, and brought it straight back to his room before he went to see Song Wan.
As for the bag, he forgot about it. When the caretaker cleaned up in the morning, she left it in the cupboard; and Chu Lui had forgotten about the object’s existence entirely.
