Chapter 250 An Unfamiliar Couple
Chapter 250 An Unfamiliar Couple
Qin Yu was furious with Zhou Cheng'an during the phone call. Not only did he fail to glean any information, but he was also rebuffed by a junior.
He slammed his phone down, swept all the documents on the table onto the floor, and cursed, "You arrogant bastard! When I was in the business world, you were still suckling! What are you so cocky about!"
The assistant outside the door hesitated, not daring to push the door open. In his hand were more notices from two business partners announcing their intention to terminate their contracts.
This encirclement and suppression has only just begun...

After deciding to go to Hong Kong, Lin Ling still informed her agent, Sister Lin. Since there wasn't much work available lately, Sister Lin didn't ask any further questions.
The next morning, Lin Ling got up early and took a taxi to the airport. Her plane landed in Hong Kong before noon.
As soon as she landed and turned on her phone, Qin's mother called immediately.
"Lingling, you've gotten off the plane? Your Uncle Qin and I are right here at the exit. Just follow the crowd and you'll see us."
Lin Ling never expected that the person Qin's mother said would be arranged to pick her up would actually be herself and Qin's father coming to pick her up.
I immediately felt extremely embarrassed.
She dragged her suitcase and followed the crowd out, where she could see Mr. and Mrs. Qin standing at the exit, eagerly waiting for her.
Lin Ling hurriedly pulled her suitcase out, afraid of keeping people waiting too long.
Qin's father and mother also spotted her and hurriedly waved to her.
Lin Ling walked over and said with a smile, "Uncle and Aunt, have you been waiting long?"
Mr. Qin offered to take the suitcase from her and pull it for her. He and Mrs. Qin said at the same time, "It's only been a short while, we just arrived too."
The two of them took Lin Ling to the parking lot. Today, Qin's father drove himself, and Qin's mother sat in the back seat with Lin Ling. She held Lin Ling's hand affectionately and said, "I've finally been waiting for you to come. I don't know why, but that kid A-Che always makes excuses to prevent you from coming. It makes me so angry."
Upon hearing Qin Yiche's name, Lin Ling asked, "Auntie, is Qin Yiche... alright?"
"The doctor said he's recovering quite well, but since he had surgery, they still recommend he stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation. He's been lying down these past two days and can't sit up." Mentioning Qin Yiche, Qin's mother's face showed more heartache and worry.
Lin Ling was surprised to hear that Qin Yiche was still lying down and unable to sit up; she hadn't realized it was so serious.
"Auntie, are we going to the hospital now?" Lin Ling wanted to go to the hospital as soon as possible.
Qin's mother replied, "Let's go to the hotel to drop off our luggage first, and then go to the hospital."
"It's okay, let's go to the hospital first. We only have one suitcase anyway," Lin Ling said anxiously.
Seeing her anxious expression, Qin's mother nodded knowingly and told Qin's father to drive the car directly to the hospital, saying, "If you two have a good relationship, then A-Che's father and I can rest assured."
Lin Ling blushed instantly, realizing that she might have been a bit too eager.
The car stopped downstairs in the inpatient building, and Lin Ling followed Qin's father and mother upstairs to Qin Yiche's ward.
Qin Yiche was also stunned when he saw Lin Ling appear in front of him.
She blinked hard, then blurted out, "What are you doing here?"
Before Lin Ling could speak, Qin's mother immediately replied, "Of course Lingling was worried about you, so she came to Hong Kong to see you."
Qin Yiche and Lin Ling stared at each other, wide-eyed.
He still didn't understand what was going on.
Lin Ling walked to the bedside somewhat awkwardly, fiddling with her fingers, and asked, "Are you... alright?"
Qin Yiche nodded. "He won't die."
Then another silence fell...
Qin's mother arranged for Lin Ling to sit down on the small sofa in the ward and said to Qin Yiche, "What kind of attitude is this? Don't give Lingling that sour look. I'm the one who called Lingling here. You just had surgery and you were already clamoring to go back to Jiangcheng, saying you were worried about Lingling being alone in Jiangcheng and wanted to see her. What's wrong with that? I brought her to you, and now you're putting on this act. Who are you trying to impress?"
Qin's mother unconditionally stood by Lin Ling's side, and seeing Qin Yiche's expressionless face, she immediately began to stand up for Lin Ling.
Qin Yiche was even more confused after hearing his mother's lecture.
What did he say? He didn't say anything, he was just a little surprised!
Lin Ling sat on the small sofa, grinning foolishly, her embarrassment written all over her face, and she even seemed a little regretful.
Should I not have come...?
"Don't even think about leaving the hospital to go to Jiangcheng with your health like this. Just stay here and rest in the hospital. When you're discharged, come home and I'll take care of you personally." Qin's mother made the arrangements directly, putting an end to Qin Yiche's idea of leaving Gangcheng.
Qin Yiche looked helplessly at his mother and called out, "Mom, I'm already twenty-three!"
"So what if he's twenty-three? Twenty-three, you're my son too! If you're my son, you have to behave and listen to me," Qin's mother said fiercely, hands on her hips.
Qin Yiche dared not argue anymore, but Qin's father came out to persuade him, "Ache has grown up, don't treat him like a child." Then he turned to look at Qin Yiche and said to him, "If you want to go to Jiangcheng, your mother and I will not stop you, but since Lingling has come to Gangcheng, you should focus on taking care of your health first, and then go there when you are well."
Qin Yiche pursed his lips and remained silent.
What else could he say? He never expected that his mother would actually bring Lin Ling to Hong Kong.
He glanced at Lin Ling sitting on the sofa. Was this woman a little stupid? She came just because someone asked her to. She was really bold. She was being sold out and was still helping to count the money.
Lin Ling felt Qin Yiche's gaze and glared back defiantly.
Ugh, she came to see him out of kindness after hearing he had surgery and was hospitalized, and this guy actually spoke to her so rudely, it made her so angry.
The two people on the bed and the sofa just stared at each other without saying a word.
They seem...not very familiar with each other...
Fearing that the young couple might be too shy to whisper to each other while they were there, Qin's parents stood up and handed Lin Ling a card, saying, "Lingling, use this card to pay for whatever you need these next few days. Don't spend your own money."
Lin Ling stood up and hurriedly refused, "Auntie, I brought money with me, you don't need to give me a card."
Qin's mother insisted on stuffing the card into her pocket, saying, "Your money is your money. When you come to my house, it's naturally my money to pay."
"Your uncle and I will go back first and bring you food tonight. You and A-Che can chat." Qin's mother said, winking at Lin Ling, and then pulled Qin's father out of the ward.
They thoughtfully left Qin Yiche and Lin Ling with space and time to be alone.
Today she went to ask the doctor, who said Qin Yiche's wound was healing well, which put her mind at ease.
