Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 289 Qin Yun's Divide and Conquer Scheme (1)

Chi Moqing had a premonition that the person secretly investigating him was definitely connected to Master J. But who exactly was this Master J, and if they wanted to get rid of him, why hadn't they made a single move yet?

Just as he was deep in thought, his phone rang again. It was Chi Ran calling, sobbing, saying that Lu Yaoyuan had been hospitalized.

He paused, glanced at the time, and immediately drove off. When he arrived at the hospital, Chi Ran was standing at the ward door, her eyes red and swollen from crying. He quickly went over and asked, "How did Lu Yuan get here? How did you get into the hospital?"

Chi Ran shook her head, sobbing, "I don't know either. I had made plans to have dinner with him, but suddenly a group of people rushed out. They were very skilled. If Lu Yuan hadn't blocked them for me, I might have..."

Seeing that Chi Ran was about to cry again, Chi Moqing hugged her and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll go in and take a look."

In the ward, Lu Yaoyuan was receiving an IV drip, his arm wrapped in gauze, but his injuries weren't serious. Seeing Chi Moqing arrive, he immediately put on a cheerful face, "Why are you here so late? Where's your sister-in-law?"

"She's resting at home." Chi Moqing walked to Lu Yaoyuan's side and examined her carefully. "A knife wound?"

"Yes, he was slashed with a machete while protecting me," Chi Ran said, choking back tears.

Chi Moqing's eyes flickered: "Tell me in detail."

Chi Ran nodded: "My car broke down today, so I drove the car you left in the garage. Those people seemed to know my whereabouts very well, and they attacked me on my way to meet Lu Yaoyuan. There were several of them, and they were all quite skilled."

Chi Moqing's face darkened. The accident happened in his car. Could it be that these people weren't after Chi Ran and Lu Yaoyuan, but after him? He knew Lu Yaoyuan's skills; ordinary people couldn't easily hurt him. Now that he was so badly injured, it seemed that those people were very professional and came prepared.

"Xiao Ran, have you offended someone lately? You're being so ruthless. Tell me, and I'll go and wipe him out in a minute!" Lu Yaoyuan had a fiery temper.

Chi Moqing glanced at Chi Ran: "Go and call the doctor over. I have something to ask him."

Chi Ran glanced at Lu Yaoyuan with concern, then turned and left. Closing the ward door, Chi Moqing said, "That group of people were most likely after me. I'm afraid my car is the reason Xiao Ran is in this mess."

Lu Yaoyuan narrowed his eyes: "What exactly happened?"

Chi Moqing shook his head: "I don't know either. I only know that someone is investigating me in secret, and I'm afraid they don't mean any harm."

Lu Yaoyuan was clearly unhappy: "Why didn't you tell me about something so dangerous? Are we even brothers anymore?"

"I'll tell you when I need your help, but I'm not sure how to explain it to you now. But thank you so much this time; if it weren't for you, Xiao Ran might have been in danger."

“Protecting her is my responsibility, why thank me?” Lu Yaoyuan chuckled.

Chi Moqing glanced at him: "You still haven't let go?"

Lu Yaoyuan's expression flickered, and he said with some bitterness, "This kind of thing is not something you can just let go of. I have loved Xiaoran for twenty years..." He took a deep breath, shook his head and smiled, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Tell me about your situation. If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know, and I will definitely help!"

Chi Moqing nodded: "Don't worry, you can definitely help. Don't tell Xiao Ran about this, so she won't worry."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Chi Ran brought the doctor in. Chi Moqing had originally used this as an excuse to send her away, but now that he saw the doctor arrive and quickly inquired about the situation, finding it wasn't too serious, he was relieved.

Before leaving, Chi Moqing said, "You should rest well. I'll talk to your aunt and uncle. I'll arrange for two special nurses for you later. You can enjoy being a young master for the next few days."

Lu Yuanyao was displeased: "I'm not seriously injured. I need to rest for a few days before I have to go back to work."

"What work? I've been taking care of you here these past few days, I don't want to go anywhere!" Chi Ran glared at him and said irritably, "Or do you not want me to take care of you? Should I go find Song Yutong?"

"No, no, no, Your Majesty, please spare me. I'll obey, okay?" Telling Song Yutong would only make things difficult for him. If she found out, she'd probably laugh at him.

Chi Moqing smiled and said, "Alright, I'm relieved to have Xiao Ran taking care of you." He winked at Chi Ran and said, "See me off. I have a few words to say to you."

Lu Yaoyuan pouted unhappily: "Why can't you say things to my face? I even slept in the same bed with Xiao Ran when we were little... Ah! Chi Ran, are you trying to murder me!"

"That'll teach you to talk nonsense! Lie down properly!" Chi Ran pinched him without any politeness, then followed Chi Moqing out. "Brother, what did you want to say to me?"

Chi Moqing's attitude was very serious and earnest, at least that's how Chi Ran perceived him. He thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Ran, how are things between you and Zhi Tu?"

Chi Ran nodded: "It's fine. He went abroad these past two days, and I was feeling lonely by myself, so I asked Lu Yaoyuan to come out for a drink."

“If you really care about Yuanyao, then stay away from him. You should know that he still can’t let go of you, and you’ll only hold him back. Listen to me, have Song Yutong come and take care of him for a while.”

Chi Ran was stunned. Lu Yaoyuan had been telling her all along, and now that he had her sister-in-law, she believed him. Could it be that he was just lying to her, and that he still had feelings for her? If that were the case, wouldn't she have committed a terrible sin?

After saying this, Chi Moqing turned and left, leaving the conversation open with a hint of meaning. Besides, his wife was still at home, and he needed to hurry back to take care of her.

Watching Chi Moqing's departing figure, Chi Ran truly felt incredibly stupid. How could she have so easily believed Lu Yaoyuan's words? She had now found her own happiness, and she hoped that Lu Yaoyuan would be well, instead of wasting his time on her.

She took a deep breath, glanced at the ward, and took out her phone to call Song Yutong.

Lu Yuan stayed in the ward waiting for Chi Ran to return, but instead of Chi Ran, Song Yutong showed up. "Good heavens!" he exclaimed, startled, his heart pounding. "Why are you here?"

When Song Yutong heard that Lu Yaoyuan was hospitalized, she rushed over almost immediately, nearly getting into a car accident on the way. But now, seeing him looking at her with such a terrified expression, what did that mean?

It's nothing serious, but you're still just as annoying!

She sneered, "I came to see if you're dead yet, so I can seize your property and inherit your estate. Don't worry, I'll squeeze out some money to buy you a fine coffin."

"Pah, pah, pah! You're such a jinx! You never say anything nice. Go away, go away, don't get in my way... Ouch!" Before Lu Yaoyuan could finish speaking, his wound was aggravated, and he almost cried out in pain. The wound that had just been bandaged was still oozing blood.

He knew that Song Yutong's arrival was bound to bring bad luck.

Song Yutong's heart clenched, and her eyes welled up with tears. She quickly wiped away her tears secretly, walked over, and said, pretending not to care, "Serves you right for being so smug! You got hurt, didn't you? Serves you right!"

Lu Yaoyuan hissed in pain while glaring angrily at Song Yutong: "Did you come to visit me while I'm sick, or to annoy me?"

Song Yutong quickly called a doctor, her heart aching more for him than for her own injuries. And this heartless man, he actually had the nerve to complain. If it weren't for protecting another woman, would he be in this state?

She covered her mouth, turned around, and left.

Lu Yuan was stunned. "No way? She just abandoned him after saying a few words? She eats his food and drinks his water, and she can't stand the slightest grievance. Why are women getting more and more arrogant these days? Good heavens!"

When Yan Zuozuo woke up, it was already the next morning. Chi Moqing was sitting next to her, gently stroking her face.

"Honey?" she called softly, blinking blankly. "Why haven't you gone to work yet?"

Chi Moqing smiled at her: "The company isn't busy. How are you feeling now? Does your wound hurt?"

Yan Zuozuo shook her head: "It's healed long ago, it doesn't hurt at all."

Chi Moqing breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Are you hungry? I'll go heat up some porridge for you. Stay in bed and don't move. Even if you've healed, you still need to rest for a couple of days."

Yan Zuozuo opened her mouth, but before she could speak, Chi Moqing went to the kitchen. Not long after, he returned with a basin of hot water and took a towel to wipe her hands and face. Yan Zuozuo sighed helplessly, "I'm really fine now, I can do it myself."

“I’m willing to take care of my wife. Besides, I’m older than you. Maybe you’ll have to take care of me when I’m old.” Chi Moqing smiled and took the basin out. Soon, he brought in porridge and a few light side dishes.

Yan Zuozuo looked at the side dishes on the tray and couldn't help but feel a little resentful. She looked at Chi Moqing with a wronged expression and asked, "Does this mean I really can't eat spicy food anymore?"

"It's good that you have this awareness. Be good, try it. These dishes are quite delicious." Chi Moqing fed her spoonful by spoonful.

Yan Zuozuo was inwardly wailing; depriving her of the right to eat spicy food was tantamount to taking her life.

After dinner, Chi Moqing sat on the bed, chatting with her while massaging her. Yan Zuozuo felt very comfortable and fell asleep without realizing it. Chi Moqing gently covered her with the blanket and just watched her silently, as if he could never get enough of looking at her.

Yan Zuozuo was woken up by the doorbell at noon. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and glanced at the time. It was almost noon. Who could it be?

Not long after, Chi Moqing pushed open the door and saw Yan Zuozuo preparing to get out of bed. He quickly stopped her, saying, "Why are you so disobedient? Didn't I tell you to rest in bed?"

Yan Zuozuo rolled her eyes: "I'm going to the bathroom."

"I'll carry you!" Chi Moqing didn't give her a chance to refuse and directly picked her up and carried her to the bathroom. Yan Zuozuo was on the verge of tears. How was she supposed to deal with this?

After she finished using the restroom, Chi Moqing put her back on the bed and said gently, "Your colleague is here to see you. Do you want to see him?"

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback: "Who is it, Cai Keren?"

In the company, Cai Keren was the only one she had a decent relationship with, and Tong Shili was alright too, but her status...

"Qin Yun." Chi Moqing's words directly interrupted her guess.

Yan Zuozuo stiffened. Qin Yun had already resigned, so why was he still looking for her?

Seeing Yan Zuozuo's hesitation, Chi Moqing said, "If you don't like it, I'll have security kick her out right now."

Yan Zuozuo shook her head: "Forget it, she's already here, let her in." She was no longer the weak and easily bullied Yan Zuozuo. If Qin Yun wanted to provoke her again, she wouldn't be one to back down.
