Chapter 1147 A Chance to See Xu Youning (1)
Su Jian’an went to bed early yesterday and woke up much earlier today.
Before Xiyu woke up, she quickly prepared two breakfasts, one for herself, and the other for Lu Boyan, which she had packed and brought over.
When Lu Boyan was having breakfast, Su Jian’an was feeding Xiangyi milk formula.
The little girl was probably really hungry. She had the formula and sighed. Occasionally, she loosened the pacifier to look at Su Jian’an. She looked very cute while she was enjoying the formula.
After Lu Boyan finished breakfast, Xiangyi was full and energetic, babbling in Su Jian’an’s arms.
Su Jian’an looked at Xiangyi, and she felt warm and sweet.
She had no other desires in her life.
At about eight o’clock, the attending doctor came over to perform a check-up on Xiangyi. In the end, he said, “Xiangyi can be discharged.”
Su Jian’an was still not a.s.sured, so she confirmed with the doctor again. “Is Xiangyi alright now?”
“Yes, Mrs. Lu. You can rest a.s.sured.” The doctor nodded with a smile. “Xiangyi is in good condition now, so there is no need for her to stay in the hospital for further observation. You should pay greater attention to her health from now on, and there won’t be any big problems.”
Su Jian’an was finally relieved, and her voice was much more relaxed. “We got it, doctor. Thank you.”
“You’re welcome,” the doctor said. “Remember to go through the formalities before leaving.”
After that, the doctor left with the nurse, leaving only Lu Boyan, Su Jian’an, and Xiangyi in the ward.
Su Jian’an picked up Xiangyi and kissed the little girl’s tender cheek hard. She couldn’t help smiling and said, “We can go home now! Your brother was looking for you yesterday. Do you miss him?”
“Ah!”
Xiangyi let out that kind of dolphin-like cry again. Two lovely dimples appeared on her cheeks, making her look like an angel that had descended.
Su Jian’an could not help thinking that her daughter’s smile might contain the beauty of the whole world.
Lu Boyan held Xiangyi in his arms, and Su Jian’an did not waste any more time. She packed up Xiangyi’s things and went downstairs with Lu Boyan.
After walking out of the elevator, Su Jian’an suddenly thought of something. She tugged at Lu Boyan and asked, “Shall we tell Yuechuan and Yunyun that we’re leaving?”
Lu Boyan looked at the time and said, “Yunyun has just finished the exam. I guess she is still sleeping at this time. We… we’d better not disturb them.”
Su Jian’an also felt that it was too early, so she decided to listen to Lu Boyan. She nodded and followed him out of the inpatient building.
Two cars were parked in front of the building.
Uncle Qian drove one over, and Lu Boyan’s a.s.sistant drove the other over.
Lu Boyan pulled open the door of Uncle Qian’s car and let Su Jian’an get in first. Then, he handed Xiangyi to her and said, “See you.”
“See you.” Su Jian’an looked at Lu Boyan. “Go home early after work. I’ll cook something delicious for you!”
Lu Boyan leaned over. Su Jian’an thought he was going to close the door for her, but he suddenly approached her and whispered in her ear, “Jian’an, to me, you’re the greatest delicacy.”
Su Jian’an’s ears were burning, and she subconsciously looked at Xiangyi in her arms and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Xiangyi was still young and could not understand her father’s meaningful words.
Su Jian’an decisively pushed Lu Boyan out and slammed the door. She said to Uncle Qian, “Uncle Qian, please send me home!”
“All right.”
Uncle Qian immediately started the car.
After the car had been driven for a long time, Su Jian’an put Xiangyi on the child safety seat and looked into the rear mirror. She saw Lu Boyan’s car following her.
It was amazing that she had a sense of security.
At an intersection, Uncle Qian turned left, and Lu Boyan’s driver turned right. Su Jian’an and Lu Boyan officially separated and went on their own ways.
Su Jian’an knew in her heart that she and Lu Boyan, in fact, would never be separated.
However, she heaved a sigh of relief at that moment.
Somehow, she felt glad to get rid of her dirty husband.
When Lu Boyan arrived at the company, it was exactly nine o’clock. He prepared the materials for the meeting and went to the conference room with his a.s.sistant.
When they pa.s.sed by the secretary’s office, Daisy stopped Lu Boyan and said with some lack of confidence, “Boss Lu, we have a problem…”
If it was in the past, even if Daisy was given the courage, she would not dare to suddenly stop Lu Boyan like this.
However, since the birth of his two babies, Lu Boyan no longer showed his usual kind of murderous and decisive aura casually, and people would be less pressured around him. When he was in a good mood, he could even joke with them.
Lu Boyan looked at his watch and then looked at Daisy. “You have one minute and thirty seconds.”
“That would be enough!” Daisy hurriedly asked, “Boss Lu, we all want to know when Special a.s.sistant Shen can come back to work. Or, will he even be back?”
“He will be back.” Lu Boyan was very sure. “You’ll just need to keep waiting for a while.”
As long as it was confirmed that Shen Yuechuan would come back, it didn’t matter to the staff in the president’s office how long it would take.
Daisy knew that Lu Boyan had an important meeting to attend, so she did not dare to delay his time. She nodded and said, “Got it. Thank you, Boss Lu!”
“You’re welcome.”
Lu Boyan did not say anything more and went to the meeting with his a.s.sistant.
At the same time, Su Jian’an had just returned to Dingya Villas.
It was the time when it was suddenly warm and still cold. As soon as Su Jian’an got out of the car, the cold wind of spring blew over. Although it didn’t contain bone-chilling coldness like a winter wind, it could still make people tremble when it blew on them.
“Hey, Xiangyi is back.”
Tang Yulan and Aunt Liu probably heard the sound of the car and ran out of the house together. The smiles on their faces were more brilliant than the morning sun.
Xiangyi was very energetic on the way back. After getting out of the car, she had been moving around in Su Jian’an’s arms and looked around the surroundings curiously.
Su Jian’an smiled and said to the little girl, “We’re home!”
“Mm…” Xiangyi seemed to have understood her mother’s words. She widened her eyes, looked at Su Jian’an, and grinned at her.
At this time, Aunt Liu and Tang Yulan were just coming over.
Tang Yulan held the little girl in her arms and took care of her like a peerless treasure. After teasing the little girl for a while, she asked Su Jian’an, “What did the doctor say?”
“It’s a little windy out here. Let’s go into the house first.” Su Jian’an took Tang Yulan’s hand and said as they walked into the house, “The attending doctor said that Xiangyi is fine. As long as we pay more attention to her health in the future, there will be no big problems.”
After that, they got into the house.
Tang Yulan sat on the sofa with Xiangyi in her arms and said with a lingering fear, “I’m glad that she’s fine. I only have her as my granddaughter. We can’t have anything bad happen to her!”
Su Jian’an turned to look at Aunt Liu and asked, “Is Xiyu awake?”
When she went out, neither Tang Yulan nor Xiyu had woken up yet.
Aunt Liu said with a smile, “Xiyu woke up as soon as Old Madam arrived. It’s very strange that he didn’t cry after the first time he woke up today. I expected that he would be mad after he woke up, and I’d already prepared to pamper him. I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t need to do it at all!”
Su Jian’an silently thought that Xiyu should have known that his sister was coming back, so he was in a good mood and did not cry.
Thinking of this, Su Jian’an actually felt a sense of accomplishment.
She motioned for Aunt Liu to go upstairs and said, “Please carry Xiyu downstairs.”
“Okay. I’m on it now.”
Aunt Liu turned around and went upstairs. It did not take long for her to take Xiyu downstairs.
Xiyu usually had a cool expression on his face, and today was the same. The little boy looked at Aunt Liu calmly as if it didn’t matter where Aunt Liu took him to.
It was not until he saw Su Jian’an that the little boy moved his little hands. It seemed that he wanted Su Jian’an to hold him.
“Xiyu, I have good news for you.” Su Jian’an held Xiyu in her arms and turned him slightly so that he could see Xiangyi. “Look, your sister is back.”
Xiangyi also saw her brother. She grinned and a smile appeared on her delicate and lovely face. She looked very happy.
Xiyu finally didn’t have that cool expression on his face anymore. Just like when Lu Boyan saw Su Jian’an, Xiyu’s face softened and he slightly smiled, which made him look like a little prince.
Tang Yulan looked at this scene and could not help sighing, “It’s so nice.”
Su Jian’an smiled and did not speak.
However, she fully agreed with Tang Yulan’s words.
While Su Jian’an and Tang Yulan were playing with the two little kids at home, Lu Boyan was still in a meeting at the company.
The long meeting lasted for three hours.
When Lu Boyan came out of the conference room, it was already past 12 o’clock. The a.s.sistant followed him to the office and said, “Boss Lu, lunch has been sent to your office. I think… I have the need to tell you about something else.”
Lu Boyan replied with an “okay” and said, “Go ahead.”
“Boss Lu, please take a look at this invitation letter.”
The a.s.sistant took out an invitation letter and handed it to Lu Boyan.
The letter had a Tiffany blue ribbon tied to it, and it looked rather mysterious.
Lu Boyan opened the letter. It was no different from an ordinary invitation letter, but someone invited him to a business banquet.
Lu Boyan did not like this kind of occasion in the first place. After getting married and having two little kids, he had more excuses to be absent from banquets. Usually, he would hand over this kind of invitation letter to his secretary or a.s.sistant and ask them to attend on his behalf.
However, if there was nothing special about this invitation letter, the a.s.sistant would not have mentioned it to him.
Lu Boyan asked directly, “What’s wrong with this letter?”
“It’s not about the letter.” The a.s.sistant paused and said, “it’s about the guest list. Boss Lu, take a closer look.”
There was a list of honored guests in the envelope. Lu Boyan glanced at it and found Kang Ruicheng’s name.
Kang Ruicheng was the CEO of the Su Group. It seemed that he managed the group very well, so it wasn’t strange that he would receive this kind of invitation.
The a.s.sistant then pointed to a line of small words at the end of the invitation letter and reminded him, “Boss Lu, take a look here. It’s marked that every guest must bring a female companion, and so does Kang Ruicheng. If he attends it, will he… bring Ms. Xu with him?”
Lu Boyan’s deep eyes slightly narrowed.
He put away the invitation letter and said in a deep voice, “Tell them that I will be attending this banquet.”
The a.s.sistant was not surprised by Lu Boyan’s decision. He nodded and said, “I’ll reply right away. Boss Lu, as for the other things…?”
Lu Boyan merely said, “Others will arrange them.”
The a.s.sistant understood that he shouldn’t worry too much, so he nodded and turned to work.
