Lu Xining quickly supported her: "Don't do this, I just promise."
The doctor said that although Zhang Tingyu survived the brain tumor surgery two years ago, her condition was not optimistic and she was just dragging on day by day.
Lu Xining didn't want her to be sad, so he could only do it temporarily.
Zhang Tingyu immediately became happy and stopped eating. Instead, she had someone pack food and asked her to deliver it to Jin Shaoheng so that they could have a meal together.
The driver sent her downstairs to the Jin Group and personally watched Lu Xining enter.
In the secretary's office on the top floor, several people were gossiping in low voices.
"Madam." The secretary saw her coming in and stood up quickly.
"Is Jin Shaoheng here?" Lu Xining asked.
"Uh...Mr. Jin is busy..." the secretary said awkwardly.
He hated himself, and his secretary made excuses for him. Lu Xining was not surprised. He just put the food box on the table and said, "It doesn't matter, just give this to him." After that, he turned and left.
"Is this my wife?"
"She looks so good-looking."
"What's the point of looking good? Mr. Jin only has Miss Lin in his eyes." The secretary said and threw the contents of the food box into the trash can.
"What are you doing?" the new secretary assistant asked in surprise.
"Mr. Jin told me that all the things sent by my wife must be thrown away, and there is no need to report to him. What's more, Miss Lin is still in the office, and she will probably be even more unhappy when she sees her." The person next to him explained for the secretary.
"Did Ms. Lin save the galaxy in her previous life?"
"Yes, the two of them look great together."
Several people were talking about their envy of Lin Qingyue, but they didn't notice that Lu Xining came back and saw the secretary throwing the lunch box.
It seemed that the things she had sent before were handled in this way, and coupled with the words the staff said, every word was like a knife piercing her heart.
Lu Xining originally thought that it wouldn't hurt if he thought about it, but the feelings he had given for a long time could not be taken back just as easily.
She entered the stairwell in despair. After hiding from everyone's sight, she seemed to have no strength anymore, so she simply sat down on the steps.
I thought this would be fine, maybe the driver was still downstairs before leaving, so my mother-in-law thought she was with Jin Shaoheng.
I don’t know if it was because of pregnancy drowsiness or excessive sadness, but I ended up falling asleep with my pillow on the armrest.
Lu Xining woke up from the cold. When he opened his eyes, he found that the surroundings were pitch black. His heart skipped a beat. When he stood up, he almost fell down the steps. Fortunately, he grabbed the handrail, but his foot sprained.
The voice-activated light came on, and she remembered that she was in Jin's corridor.
I thought about leaving quickly, but when I got to the next floor, I discovered that there was an access control between the top floor and other floors.
She could only limp back to the top floor, but at this time all employees were off work, the elevator was out of service, and all offices, including the conference room, were locked.
Is it possible that she has to stay here all night?
Not to mention whether she was scared or not, even the cold could freeze her to death, so she still thought of Jin Shaoheng.
When I dialed the phone, the other end answered quickly, but the voice was as cold as ever: "What's the matter?"
"I'm locked up on the top floor of Jin's house. Can you let someone--"
"Shaoheng, look at this baby's little shoes. They are so cute." Before Lu Xining could finish his words, he was covered up by Lin Qingyue's voice on the other end.
Jin Shaoheng seemed to respond before asking Lu Xining: "What did you say?"
"It's okay." Lu Xining hung up the phone lonely.
She thought that since he was dating Lin Qingyue, he probably didn't care about her. After all, she tried not to cause him any trouble, but she would still annoy him, so why bother asking for trouble...
——Divider line——
Jin Shaoheng, on the other hand, thought Lu Xining was inexplicable, but he didn't go into details. He went shopping with Lin Qingyue before sending her back to her old house.
At that time, Zhang Tingyu was trimming flowers and plants in the living room. When she saw them coming in, she immediately dropped the scissors and asked, "Why are you together?"
"Aunt, it's me." Lin Qingyue jumped out nervously and explained in a low voice: "I thought I was a little scared about the first prenatal check-up, so I asked Shaoheng to accompany me."
Zhang Tingyu's eyes were full of sarcasm, as if she had already seen through everything.
Lin Qingyue didn't feel guilty. Instead, he thought of something and happily took out the things he just bought and showed them: "Auntie, don't you think the clothes we just bought are cute? There are also toys that can be used when the baby is born."
She wanted to use the child to make Zhang Tingyu relent, but Zhang Tingyu ignored her and only asked Jin Shaoheng: "Where is Xining?"
"How would I know?" The look on his face made it clear that he had never taken her to heart.
"I asked her to deliver food to you this afternoon, didn't you see her?" Zhang Tingyu was anxious.
The driver clearly said that he saw her go in with his own eyes and didn't come out after waiting for a long time. She was secretly happy that the two of them were together.
Jin Shaoheng thought of the previous phone call and vaguely seemed to hear the words "Jin's Penthouse". He immediately thought of something, turned around and walked out.
"Shaoheng——" Lin Qingyue saw this and wanted to call him to stop, but Zhuang's mother calmly held him back.
She is an old man who has been with Zhang Tingyu for many years, so she naturally understands her thoughts best.
"Mother Zhuang, you're hurting me." Lin Qingyue frowned as she couldn't get away.
Mother Zhuang was unmoved.
"Starting today, you are not allowed to go out again." Zhang Tingyu ordered...
In fact, she had confessed this before going out. It was just that Lin Qingyue was pregnant, and the others were afraid that they would not be able to afford it, so they did not stop her.
"Auntie, I have grown up by your side. I don't understand why you hate me so much?" Lin Qingyue asked aggrievedly.
She was originally an orphan. When she was ten years old, she rescued the kidnapped Jin Shaoheng and was taken into the Jin family. It can be said that she and Jin Shaoheng were childhood sweethearts.
Although Zhang Tingyu had never left her without food or clothing, she was extremely cold and cold. She always thought that her temperament was like this, but she was completely different towards Lu Xining.
"Why, don't you know it yourself?" Zhang Tingyu snorted.
Lin Qingyue's face flashed with guilt when he heard this. Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Tingyu had already gone upstairs.
Looking at her back, Lin Qingyue's eyes flashed with gloom...
