Chapter 389: Chapter 389: It’s My Fault for Not Taking Care of President Lu’s Cup
It seemed that he had been scolded by the two old folks, and Qiao Yin was quite delighted!
Even though she was happy, Lu Lingche himself did not feel relaxed at all. He said in a very solemn tone, “Indeed, I owe Qiao Yin an apology. That fact, I have never denied.”
“If you ask me whether I behave this miserly with others as well, my answer is yes. I am generally stingy towards everyone.”
“However, I’ve decided to be more generous towards Qiao Yin in the future. Qiao Yin was carrying my child and was made to miscarry by my mother, these are all my responsibilities, so, all your medicinal herbs and ginseng will be provided by me from now on.”
“I would also urge you to frequently make soups for Qiao Yin to nourish her body and help her recover her strength quickly.”
After hearing all this, Qiao Yin was startled and couldn’t even manage to smile, “Lu Lingche, I don’t want your stuff. Don’t even try to send it!”
“No, I must insist. It’s only some ginseng, you don’t need to be this polite with me.”
Lu Lingche said as he looked at Old Madam Lu, “Right, Grandma?”
Finally, upon hearing what he said, the Old Madam felt a bit relieved. Pulling Qiao Yin’s hand, she said, “Right, you don’t need to be polite with him. You should happily accept whatever he gives you, all of it belongs to you rightfully anyway.”
“Thanks, but it’s really not necessary, Grandma. I can’t even finish what you’ve already given me. Let Lu Lingche give his stuff to Lan Yuyi instead. That way, she can take it to boost her health after she gives birth.”
Upon hearing ‘Lan Yuyi’, the old lady snorted coldly, “She doesn’t need us to worry about her at all. Lingche’s mother treats her like a treasure. She’s not even coming back home now, lives in the hospital every day, taking care of her day and night. If one didn’t know, they’d think that Lan Yuyi were her own daughter!”
Qiao Yin didn’t really care what happened to Lan Yuyi; she simply didn’t want the ginseng from Lu Lingche. She didn’t want to drink chicken soup either, so she was just making up an excuse.
“But, I am already fully recovered now, so I really don’t need any more nourishments.”
Old Madam didn’t listen to her. She chatted with Shen Yujun a bit more, then left along with Lu Lingche.
Soon after they left, Lu Lingche’s assistant arrived carrying loads of gift boxes.
With a big smile on his face, Yuanshan said, “Miss Qiao, these are the things President Lu asked me to deliver. Where would you like me to put them?”
Qiao Yin shook her head, “I don’t want them, you can take them back!”
“I can’t do that, Miss Qiao. If you don’t accept these gifts, President Lu won’t let me return. Please, accept them!”
Qiao Yin looked at him helplessly, “You are his most trusted subordinate. He can’t possibly stop you from returning. This trick won’t work on me.”
Yuanshan didn’t feel embarrassed to be exposed and continued to smile, “I will just put them in the living room. Don’t worry, these are all good things, old ginseng, precious herbs, and also cubilose. President Lu usually never gives gifts. It’s a first for him to have sent gifts to your place!”
Qiao Yin was suspicious, “Hasn’t he given any to Lan Yuyi before?”
“No, Miss Qiao, President Lu is not the kind of person who knows how to give gifts. Moreover, President Lu really sees Miss Lan as his sister-in-law, so how could he give her gifts?”
Qiao Yin’s smile turned cold, “Sister-in-law? Have you ever seen anyone sleeping with their sister-in-law?”
“Well, that…”
Yuanshan lowered his head, looking quite ashamed, “Actually, that one time Lu Lingche slept with Miss Lan was all my fault.”
Qiao Yin looked at him curiously, “How can it be your fault that the two of them slept together?”
“Because I wasn’t careful enough and let someone drug President Lu’s drink. It was under unconsciousness that President Lu did that with Miss Lan.”
She had previously heard from him about Lu Lingche being drugged.
Now, hearing Yuanshan mention it again, she couldn’t help but ask, “Who drugged him? Why would they drug him? And, what drug did they use?”
“The person who drugged him has not been found, the reason for the drugging is also unclear, but the drug used was triazolam..”
