Mr. Gatson's Bride Is Back

Chapter 716: The Caring That Can’t Be Exposed

Fu Yushen was about to leave, so Wang Yiming gave his last order. NovelFire)

"Please, help me take care of Wang Xue."

Fu Yushen stopped in his tracks. He didn’t agree or refuse.

He quickly left the interrogation room.

Qingyun Wan.

Leng Xiaoduan was busy with work.

The ringtone of her phone gave her a fright and she almost jumped up from the stool.

When she saw that the caller ID was Lu Mingyu, her mood improved a little.

The relationship between the two of them was a little complicated.

Actually, she didn’t really understand what was going on.

Anyway, she had not replied to Lu Mingyu’s question that day.

Just like Sister Qing Wan said, she always felt...Not good.

After pondering for a moment, she still chose to answer the call.

"Hello? Mingyu Bro, is there anything you need?"

Leng Xiaoduan was still not used to calling him by his name. In the end, he chose to call him Brother Mingyu.

But she was a little confused. Why was he calling her?

Lu Mingyu felt a little awkward when he heard her voice.

Actually, he called to ask Leng Xiaoduan about Ye Qingwan.

Ever since that drunken slip of the tongue, he had been avoiding her.

Although he knew that this was not good, he still could not face her.

Leng Xiaoduan did not get a response for a long time. He said lightly," Brother Mingyu."

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up."

"After all, I’m still at work. I really don’t have that much free time..."

Leng Xiaoduan’s voice pulled Lu Mingyu back to reality.

He almost blurted out," Little Duan, it’s like this. I want to ask Wanwan."

"I want to know what happened to her in 1587. How is she?"

When he was silent, Leng Xiaoduan guessed that he was probably asking about Sister Qing Wan.

Therefore, when she heard his question, she did not say anything and only replied.

"Sister Qing Wan is fine, don’t worry."

"That day in the private room, Gu Shimo was there, so she wasn’t injured."

When Lu Mingyu heard this, his anxious heart relaxed.

Even though he wasn’t the one who stayed by her side, as long as he knew that she was fine, it was fine.

His heart was still bitter, but he felt more relieved.

A moment later, Lu Mingyu said calmly," Okay, thank you."

Leng Xiaoduan could tell that something was wrong, but he didn’t say anything.

She only said lightly," If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. I still have work to do.""

"Don’t think too much about it. After all, Gu Shimo is here."

"Sister Qingwan won’t get hurt. If you have time, why don’t you ask her yourself?"

She knew that he didn’t want to face Sister Qing Wan because he had lost his words after drinking.

However, she felt that it was better to face it. Only then would she gradually feel at ease.

After a long time, Lu Mingyu did not reply.

Leng Xiaoduan was a little annoyed. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, the other party muttered to himself.

"Okay, thank you. You go ahead. I’ll consider it."

After saying that, he hung up.

Lu Mingyu sat on the sofa dejectedly.

He had mixed feelings.

On Leng Xiaoduan’s side, she sat down and recalled something after the call ended.

Even though Lu Mingyu only called her to show his concern for Sister Qingwan.

However, she still felt that Sister Qingwan needed to know about this.

Lu Mingyu, who liked to get into a dead end, started to let his imagination run wild.

As she thought of this, she put down the unfinished work in her hands.

He walked towards Sister Qing Wan’s office.

Someone knocked on the door.

Ye Qingwan returned to her senses and smiled." Come in.""

Leng Xiaoduan walked in with a smile and walked up to her mysteriously.

Her red lips parted slightly." Sister Qingwan, guess who called me?" noveldrama

Ye Qingwan was confused.

Her beautiful eyes looked at Leng Xiaoduan.

She really couldn’t tell anything from her face.

However, she subconsciously excluded Brother Shi Mo.

After all, if it were him, he would have called her directly.

Could it be...Godmother?

After all, Godmother had always wanted Leng Xiaoduan to be her daughter-in-law.

At the thought of this, she asked," Is that Godmother?"

Leng Xiaoduan stopped smiling mysteriously.

She pretended to sigh and sat down." If Lu Mingyu knew...""

"I’m probably going to die of heartache. Alright, I’ll be honest. It was actually Lu Mingyu who hit him."

Ye Qingwan suddenly returned to her senses.

So it was Mingyu bro?

However, ever since that time when he was drunk, he seemed to have been avoiding her.

Why did she call Little Duan this time?

"What did he say?"

"Yes, he asked me if you were okay because of 1587."

After listening to Leng Xiaoduan’s explanation, Ye Qingwan understood.

..

Lu Mingyu rested for a while.

He then called his mother.

Mama Lu was a little stunned when she saw the caller ID.

After picking up the phone, she started to complain." Aiyo, my eldest son finally remembered me?"

"Sigh, they say that raising a son is good for old age. Why did I raise such an inconsiderate son like you?"

Lu Mingyu smiled awkwardly at his mother’s words." Mom, be serious."

Mother Lu knew her son’s personality well and quickly added.

"Alright, alright. I don’t come to the temple for no reason. Why did you call me?"

Lu Mingyu said seriously.

"Mom, something almost happened to your goddaughter a few days ago."

"I was thinking, why don’t you ask her to come over for a meal as a sign of concern?"

When Mother Lu heard that something had happened to Qing Wan, she sat up straight.

Her heart was in a mess as she asked," What’s going on?"

"What’s wrong with Wanwan? Is she alright?"

"This child is too much. Why didn’t he tell me when something happened?"

Lu Mingyu knew that his mother was anxious, so he quickly explained.

"Mom, don’t worry. Wanwan didn’t tell you because she didn’t want you to worry."

"Even I only found out about it not long ago."

He knew Wanwan’s personality very well. She was used to being strong by herself.

She was not used to having a backer behind her. No matter what, the Lu family was her home.

As long as she was willing, they were her backers and harbors.

Mother Lu was still very anxious.

Wanwan was the goddaughter that she liked. If it had not been for Shi Mo, she might have been her daughter-in-law.

How could she not be anxious?

Mrs. Lu sounded even more anxious." Then what happened?""

Lu Mingyu continued to explain.

" Mom, Wanwan was drugged by Xue Yunfei when she was having dinner in 1587..."

"Fortunately, I asked Xiao Duan today and nothing happened. Gu Shimo was by her side."

Mother Lu did not hear the disappointment in her son’s tone.

She only patted her chest and thought," That was close, that was close. How about this, I’ll go tell Wanwan.""

"Ask her to come over for dinner."

Lu Mingyu heaved a sigh of relief.

He was afraid that his mother would ask him why he didn’t bring Wanwan back.

How could he still have the face to see her now?

She probably didn’t want to see him either, right?

After all, the two of them were already siblings.

Mother Lu was still calculating.

She was very worried about Wanwan, but she also had her own thoughts.

If she could take advantage of this opportunity to help her blockhead son.

Wouldn’t it be good to matchmake him and Duan?

She was very satisfied with Xiao Duan. She was a good girl. She had to make Mingyu, that disappointing person, hold on tight.

Don’t let others beat you to it.

"Then, Mom, I’ll hang up first."

Lu Mingyu was about to hang up after saying that.

He had no idea that his mother had already planned a lot of things for him.

Mother Lu was still immersed in her own thoughts.

She replied casually," Okay, I got it. You can go do your work.""

After hanging up the phone, she was still thinking about Xiao Duan.

He decided to give her a call.

After the call connected.

Mama Lu asked in a gentle voice," Xiao Duan, are you busy?"

Leng Xiaoduan had just walked out of Sister Qingwan’s office.

She was a little surprised to receive a call from Mama Lu.

However, she still said gently," Hello, Auntie Lu. I’m not very busy now.""

"Is there something you need?"
