After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor Chapter 326 - 327: The Rhythm of Getting Exposed in Minutes
"Lou Xi, when Mr. Qin wanted to give us money, I actually refused, but your mother... she insisted on taking it. Because of this, I argued with her, and that night, I had a stroke and was hospitalized. Who knew... who knew she’d take the money and run, leaving even the child behind!" Lou Jian Country said, coughing a few tis in his agitation.
"Please stop, the doctor said you shouldn’t have big emotional fluctuations, or you might have another stroke." Lou Xi said calmly, "I don’t want to talk about those things anymore. For raising all these years, I will never forget your kindness. As for that money, I’ll find a way to return it to Mo Bai."
Lou Jian Country understood Lou Xi’s detachnt, but there’s nothing he can do. They were wrong from the beginning; can’t bla others for it.
"Lou Xi, actually, we’ve treated you like our own daughter all these years. You were left at our doorstep when you were so little back then. Later, I did ask soone to help find your parents..."
Just as Lou Jian Country was about to say more, Lou Xi’s phone rang.
Lou Xi had said she’d call to check on Qin Mobai, and now Qin Mobai called first to check on him.
"I’ll take this call first, you should rest. The surgery is tomorrow." After Lou Xi spoke, she left the ward with her phone.
Her heart felt a bit sour.
Even if Lou Jian Country had wanted to refuse the money Qin Mobai offered, in the end, to him, Lou Xi was still soone who could be asured by money.
Perhaps five million couldn’t move him, but ten million, or even fifty million, would surely sway him.
The human heart is a truly terrifying thing.
Lou Xi left the ward and found a quiet place to answer Qin Mobai’s call.
"Young Master Qin, missing so soon!" When talking to Qin Mobai, Lou Xi’s voice turned sweet and cute again.
Hearing Lou Xi’s sweet voice, Qin Mobai didn’t speak right away. This silence sent a chill down Lou Xi’s spine.
Feeling guilty, she worried Qin Mobai might have discovered sothing.
"Young Master Qin..." Why isn’t he speaking, it’s making anxious!
"What did you call this morning?" After a while, Qin Mobai finally spoke. So, it was all about that form of address!
In the morning, Lou Xi had called Qin Mobai "husband." Surely, he would never accept the title "Young Master Qin" again!
"Husband." Lou Xi whispered, covering the phone’s microphone.
The frustration in her heart vanished the mont she heard Qin Mobai’s voice.
She had just lost one ho; Qin Mobai gave her a warm ho in return. Life’s gains and losses make it perfect.
"Mm, call again and let hear." Qin Mobai’s voice was serious.
Lou Xi’s face turned red instantly. Is it really okay to be showing this affection over the phone?
"Husband, husband, husband!" Lou Xi called three tis in a row.
It seed that Lou Xi heard Qin Mobai’s laughter, faint but perceptibly joyful even over the phone.
"Good girl," he said, "Mo Xi just ca to see , saying she wants to visit the Capital to see Fu Sinian, and to relax a bit. Keep an eye on her for , don’t let her get into trouble."
After hearing Qin Mobai’s words, Lou Xi was a bit dumbfounded!
She had just thought that Qin Mobai was too busy with work to leave and find her, but now, it’s Mo Xi who’s coming to find her!
Isn’t this a recipe for instant exposure?
