C8 What If I Said It Was True

(8) What if I say it's true

Lu Xinpei drove very fast and was very stable, so he could easily stop the car.

When he reached the emergency room, he registered her, explained the general situation, and accompanied her to draw blood and get the medicine. He waited until she hung up the saline before he walked away. When he returned, he had a water glass, a blanket, and a pillow in his hand.

When he was in the car, Lyi Qingqing heard him answer the phone. At first, she just told him in a low voice that she didn't need to come over, but after a few seconds, she called him back and told the person on the other side to prepare these things and take them directly to the hospital.

Then she fell asleep. Before she pulled out the needle, Lu Xinpei called to her in a low voice: "Qing Qing, wake up. Go home and sleep again!"

She opened her eyes and saw that the clock on the wall indicated that it was almost four in the morning. She turned around to look at Lu Xinpei, who was pressing the call bell for her.

He hadn't slept a wink that night, and there was hardly a trace of weariness on his face. He still had that perfect face, his chin was smooth and his hair was unblemished.

Her tone was especially gentle as she asked, "Are you feeling better now that you've woken up?"

Lyi Qingqing shifted her gaze away. "Yeah, much better!"

After exiting the hospital, she suddenly felt a burst of clarity. Although the red blotches on her body had not completely disappeared, she felt much better.

It was Lu Xinpei who drove the car. On the streets of the city at dawn, the street lamps intersected with the gray light of the sky, giving off a misty feeling.

Lyi Qingqing could not sit still any longer, "Mr Lu, are you unwilling to drive because of five years of work?"

This was obviously not a good topic, but she asked anyway, because she wanted to know why he was suddenly willing to drive again.

Lu Xinpei glanced over and smiled: "Yes, it's because of the shadow."

She bit her lip and was about to ask, "Then today you …"

"My psychiatrist told me long ago that maybe one day, in a situation of desperate urgency, there was something I had to drive to accomplish immediately, and the importance of that thing took control of my mind, so I would naturally overcome that fear."

Lyi Qingqing thought for a moment. "What about now?"

Lu Xinpei was silent for a few seconds, then turned to look at her: "Do you really want to know?"

She nodded solemnly.

"I'll get you home safely!"

However, Lyi Qingqing could clearly feel his emotions. Perhaps it was from between his brows, or from his voice, or perhaps it was just a sudden change in his aura.

At this time, there were no other cars on the road. There was a traffic light at the intersection of the traffic lights. Lu Xinpei stopped and waited for the yellow light.

She took a deep breath and said, "Su Yuying must have told Mr Lu about my sister."

Lu Xinpei slowly loosened the brake and started the car: "Is that what you two whispered to each other last night?"

Lyi Qingqing shook her head. "I heard it myself."

It was some time before he spoke again. "What else did you hear?"

She finally said, "I heard it. But one thing is wrong, Su Yuying was not right. It's not that I don't believe in love, I just don't know what love is.

"But now I seem to know a little. Mr Lu, is what Su Yuying said true? "

Lu Xinpei stopped the car again. Even though she was wearing a safety belt, her body still leaned forward due to the emergency brake.

"I'm sorry!"

She straightened up and turned to look at him. "What?"

Lu Xinpei also turned his head to look at her: "What if I said it's true?"

"It's good that it's real. I seem to have already believed it!"

Lyi Qingqing couldn't remember whether she had blushed or not. She should have. And when she took the initiative to shake his hand, his palm was slippery. After a moment of hesitation, he caught her hand and clasped his ten fingers together.

She didn't know if it was because of the barrier in his heart, or just because of her. At that moment, she clearly felt that he was even more nervous than she was.

Lyi Qingqing explained the details to Shu Lan in an honest manner. In the end, she added, "Shu Lan, so that's how it feels to like a person!"

At that time, Shu Lan was anxiously waiting for her to put down her chopsticks so she could clean the table and wash the dishes. Noticing her narcissistic look, Yuan Zhou directly sent her a message, "There are biological studies that show that in the middle of the night, a person's rational defense is the weakest. I think you are completely bewitched by Lu Xinpei's beauty! No matter what, since he has not regained his freedom for a day, I do not approve of you taking this step officially. "

After a while, Shu Lan said, "Have you asked him when he plans to sign for divorce?"

Lyi Qingqing raised her head and looked at her for a moment before lowering her head again. "Are you going to ask me this right from the start?"

Shu Lan sighed, "If you don't ask now, when will you ask? It isn't that I have to ask this from the very start, but I have to clarify this matter before I can start! "

"This won't do! Qing Qing, how about I move in with you during this time, or you go and stay at Pingshan. "You two are alone, living upstairs and downstairs with such thoughts in your minds. I really don't feel at ease!"

"Why don't you take a two-week leave of absence to go to Canada with your mother. Impulse and beauty are two things that you have to keep at arm's length to calm down."

Lyi Qingqing raised her head again and looked at the figure who was washing the dishes in front of the sink.

Last Sunday morning, the day Lu Xinpei had accompanied her back from the hospital, he had accompanied her to the door and reluctantly asked her, "Will you forget what you said in the car the moment you woke up?"

And what she said was, "If I forget, you drive me around that road again. Revisiting a place like this is usually the most effective way to retrieve memories! "

That night, Lyi Qingqing thought over Shu Lan's words very seriously. However, her words were limited to thinking them over and over again. She didn't make any meaningful movements.

After a week, Mu Shaoqi came to see her again.

It was also just after class. When Lyi Qingqing and Shu Lan walked out of the back door of the classroom, they saw Mu Shaoqi, who was wearing a dark red plaid shirt, with the legs of his jeans rolled up and a pair of dazzling white sneakers on.

Shu Lan wanted to turn around and tease him, but seeing that her expression wasn't good, she immediately thought of something. "This man, could he be that Mu Shaoqi?"

She only made a "hmm" sound before Shu Lan let out a long sigh. "Isn't this man a little too outrageous? "One at a time, are you still letting our Mr Jun live?!"

Lyi Qingqing was amused by her smile. Mu Shaoqi had seen it before. Zhao Xiaoyue's words didn't mean what she said. How could such a beauty be described with the words "she is indeed very pretty"? This kind of beauty was like the spring flowers, autumn moon, and winter snows. It was also as fresh as a summer morning dew.

"Hey, you're not going to turn a blind eye to me again today, are you?"

If he didn't say anything, Lyi Qingqing would've done so. She didn't want to be held hostage again for no reason. Although she didn't really care about the rumors she heard about the Plum Garden incident, no one liked to be hung on the lips of a bunch of people who didn't know the truth.

Lyi Qingqing seemed to have thought of something as she turned her head to Shu Lan who was beside her and said, "Go to the market and buy some food. I'll be back very soon."

Shu Lan nodded and glanced at Mu Shaoqi. She purposely looked around and then said with a smile, "Young Master Mu, are you sure you aren't being followed today?"

However, he didn't seem to care and only shrugged his shoulders. He waited for Shu Lan to walk past him before looking at her and saying, "How about it? Are you willing to eat with me today?"

Lyi Qingqing waited until a few of her classmates had walked past before she took a step forward, "I'll keep this as a long story. I heard that you specially called my father to explain the situation, saying that you sincerely wanted to interact with me on the premise of marriage."

"Mister Mu, the situation last time was a bit chaotic and I didn't have the chance to clarify with my words. Now I'll tell you again, you're not my type, so please don't waste your time and don't call me with a different number. Although it would be a little troublesome to change your phone number, I will seriously consider it in order to completely get rid of your harassment! "

Mu Shaoqi continued to smile casually: "Then I'll change to whatever type you like. You might not know, but I'm very flexible!"

He straightened up, still smiling. "Besides, you don't know anything about me. How do you know what type of person I am?"

With a cold face, Lyi Qingqing turned around and walked away. For a moment, she really couldn't figure out what Mu Shaoqi meant. In terms of appearance, that Zhao Xiaoyue was definitely one of the top beauties. Her eyes and teeth were beautiful, but she was also completely loyal to him. Although he couldn't tell what kind of family background he had, but to be able to be associated with such an invisible noble young master, he was definitely not far off.

Last Friday, her father mentioned this to her on the phone again and praised Mu Shaoqi as a talented young man. He had already started owning his own online company at a young age, so he didn't need to rely on his parents in many aspects. His father's words were very tactful. There was no lack of active women around outstanding men. Having emotional experience was also a good thing.

All in all, he wanted her to not come to a conclusion too early and try to observe him again.

Actually, Lyi Qingqing had thought of changing her current phone number, because ever since she set Mu Shaoqi's number to reject the call, he had already called her with five or six different numbers. The previous few times she had heard his name being called, she had hung up and refused. Afterwards, there was an unfamiliar number calling out to him, so she didn't answer any of them.

Shu Lan helped her analyze, it was probably because this Mu Shaoqi had never been treated like this by a woman before.

"Lyi Qingqing, I'm here today to tell you that I've set my quarterly goal of becoming your first boyfriend. "Do you dare to give me three months? If you are still as determined as you are now, I guarantee that you will automatically disappear!"
