Chapter 619 Take you to him (1/2)
Lu Tian's car sped through the bustling streets of Imperial. He had run a few red lights without any intentions of slowly down until he arrives at Imperial Military Hospital.
He parks his car in front of the hospital entrance and shuts the engine off before stepping out. As he close the driver side door, his head did not forget to look left and right in search for Grandfather Ji or Zhong Yang.
He had come here due to his assistant's words, but neither of them knows if the two old men had already entered the hospital or were also arriving.
However, not seeing either men, he takes out his phone and press the speed dial number for Xu Long.
The tracking device on Zhong Yang's phone indicated that they were headed this way, but what if it was all a coincidence? What if they drove to a different hospital or another place?
[”Boss, how is everything?”]
”Where is their location now?”
Xu Long's voice chimes in from the other line as Lu Tian answers with a question. At the same time, his eyes subconsciously glance in the direction of the drop-off area. He sees a taxicab but doesn't think much as it was normal for patients to take a cab to the hospital.
[”I just confirmed Uncle Zhong's phone. They are inside.”
From the other line, Xu Long answers the question right away as Lu Tian proceeds towards the entrance.
”Got it.”
He ends the call and put his phone inside the pocket of his suit jacket. Just as he was a few feet away from the door entrance, he caught a glimpse of a very familiar figure and calls out.
”Ji Jingxu.”
Ji Jingxu had only taken two steps away from the taxicab he had gotten off of. When he suddenly heard his name called by a deep voice, he stops and glance to look at his surroundings. It took a short minute before he finally turns around and sees the tall figure of a man.
”Brother-in-law… I mean, Mr. Lu, why are you also here?”
He was surprise to see Lu Tian at the hospital. However, a dreadful feeling rise inside him and his eyes search the areas near the man. Could it be that something happened to his sister too?
Seeing Ji Jingxu's reaction upon seeing him, Lu Tian kept a calm expression, but he knew what the boy is looking for.
”Your sister is fine. I'm here for your grandfather.”
Ji Jingxu felt himself relax a little when he heard that is sister is fine. However, his eyes shook as he looks at Lu Tian when he thought about what the man said.
”Y-You know about grandfather?”
He thought that it was only him, Zhong Yang and Housekeeper Hu who knew. Lu Tian said he is here for his (Ji Jingxu) grandfather then does that mean he (Lu Tian) knows about the old man's illness? What about Yue Ling? Does she know too?
