Chapter 77: Sign the Contract and Debut (1)
Lu Qingxin stood obediently beside Lu Jijun. The two of them did not do anything and just waited silently in the corner.
Meanwhile, inside the hospital room, Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang could not help but sigh when they found out what the two were doing. Meeting such shameless people was scary—it was a nightmare.
They had already said all they could, but those two refused to listen.
And no one could even scold them.
They could only let them stand there and be an annoyance.
The main thing was, Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang were embarra.s.sed.
Lu Qingxin and Lu Jijun waited at the elevator lobby for almost two hours before Du Juan arrived with a thermos.
The security guard looked at Du Juan suspiciously and stopped her.
It wasn’t until Li Qingcang motioned for him to let Du Juan in before she was allowed to pa.s.s.
“Why is she allowed to pa.s.s and we, well, are not?” Lu Qingxin asked sweetly. She did so convincingly, trying to stay calm despite her annoyance.
Lu Qingxin had always cared about how she appeared in public. Her legs were also aching from standing for so long.
The guard looked at Lu Qingxin and replied, “Miss, she is a relative of the patient. If you two are the patient’s family, you can call your relatives and ask them to come here to collect you. Then, we will definitely let you pa.s.s.”
Lu Qingxin did not respond.
She looked at Lu Jijun sadly and said, “Dad, I’m hungry.”
Lu Jijun had not had anything to drink for two hours, and he felt he could not stay any longer. He thought about it and spoke, “I’ll give Yancheng a call and get him to send you home. I’ll stay here and wait.”
Since Lu Jijun was not leaving, Lu Qingxin did not want to leave either. She decided, “Then I shall stay with you.”
“No, I will call Yancheng now. Why don’t you go home first?”
Lu Qingxin could not argue with that and agreed.
Less than 30 minutes later, Gu Yancheng arrived at the hospital. Lu Qingxin walked towards him the moment he left the elevator.
“Elder Brother Yancheng, I already told Dad not to bother you, but he refused to listen.”
Gu Yancheng greeted Lu Jijun, then turned to Lu Qingxin and said, “Silly girl, is there a need to be so polite to me? They still won’t let you in?”
“No… Elder Sister must still hate us. Elder Brother Yancheng, what do you think we should do?”
Gu Yancheng comforted Lu Qingxin and said softly, “I’ll take you to get something to eat first. Then, you can tell me what happened.”
Gu Yancheng and Lu Qingxin left while Lu Jijun waited at the elevator lobby alone.
The security guards have already changed s.h.i.+fts, but Lu Jijun was still not allowed to get in. When a person had nothing to do, their mind would often wander. Images from his youth flickered through his mind. Lu Jijun thought that he must be getting old.
It was easy for someone to remember the past when they were old.
Because the past was so wonderful… It was stifling, and he longed for it so.
…
…
Du Juan entered the room and greeted Ye Tianxin’s grandma with a smile, asking her how she was feeling.
Grandma replied that she was fine and laughed heartily.
“Du Juan, we’ve troubled you…”
Du Juan stood beside Li Qingcang and handed him the amended contract.
“Mr. Li, this is the amended contract. Take a look at it and see if there’s anything else that needs to be changed.”
Li Qingcang took the doc.u.ment and read it thoroughly. He felt rather satisfied after reading it. There were no commonly seen pitfalls in the contract.
Du Juan seemed like a good person.
“There’s no problem with the contract.”
Li Qingcang handed the contract to Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin took the contract and signed her name on it without any hesitation.
