ABRWF Chapter 429.1

Lu Qingyan said that he would ask for it, and he did.

The next day, he went to a temple which was close to the capital and was considered very efficient for praying for Jiang Nanshu’s safety.

The abbot of the temple gave him two peace talismans, one for Jiang Nanshu and one for his unborn child.

He went and returned the same day, stringing the two talismans together with a red string and hanging them around Jiang Nanshu’s neck: “Don’t take them off.”

“What about you? Why didn’t you ask for one for yourself?” Jiang Nanshu asked, looking at him.

Lu Qingyan smiled at Jiang Nanshu: “I forgot. I was only thinking about you and the baby. I’m fine, so I don’t need one.”

It was already afternoon, and he naturally went into the kitchen.

“Are you hungry? I’ll make you something to eat.”

There was a nanny at home, but whenever Lu Qingyan was home, she never had to cook.

While cleaning, she chatted with Jiang Nanshu: “Madam, of all the masters I’ve met, yours is the best. He is the epitome of a good man. You are so lucky to be living such a happy life.”

The nanny looked at Jiang Nanshu with a smile. 

Jiang Nanshu’s eyes softened: “I also think he’s good.”

The nanny had a look on her face that said she’d been hooked.

The nanny was going home that evening, leaving only Jiang Nanshu and Lu Qingyan at home.

He was working in his study when Jiang Nanshu made him a cup of milk.

He communicated entirely in English, and when he saw Jiang Nanshu enter, his serious expression softened instantly: “Why aren’t you resting yet? It’s already so late.”

It was already ten o’clock.

Lu Qingyan rarely worked until this late.

It seemed that he’d been working a lot lately, considering he’d been detained for over a week, and the company had been kept afloat by Old Mr. Lu.

Lu’s father might have tasted the benefits of letting things go and had stopped caring about the company. Nobody knew what he had been up to lately or where he had gone.

“You’re not asleep either, are you? I’ll wait for you.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingyan chuckled and said, “Your situation is different from mine. Listen to me, go to sleep. I’ll come as soon as I’m done.”

He hadn’t muted his phone, so everyone in the video conference could hear Jiang Nanshu’s voice. They all fell silent, surprised that Lu Qingyan didn’t seem to hide it from them, though they knew perfectly well who she was.

This must be Mrs. Lu.

Lu Qingyan cherished his wife dearly.

He always had to go to sleep after meetings until ten o’clock, claiming that his wife was afraid without him.

If things hadn’t been so complicated today, Lu Qingyan would have gone to bed long ago.

Lu Qingyan stood up, told the person in the video to wait ten minutes, and then led Jiang Nanshu to the bedroom: “You go to sleep first.”

He sat on the edge of the bed, adjusted the room temperature, tucked Jiang Nanshu in, bent down, and kissed her forehead, his peach blossom eyes shimmering softly: “Goodnight, Nan Nan.”

Jiang Nanshu closed her eyes, and soon, soft breathing could be heard. Lu Qingyan waited a few more minutes before carefully getting up, turning on the nightlight, turning off the main light, and quietly leaving the room.

After he left, Jiang Nanshu opened her eyes in the dim light.

If she hadn’t misheard, Lu Qingyan had talked about the Lu family being investigated, and he had instructed all departments to be vigilant, as well as the overseas branches to keep an eye on police movements.

Jiang Nanshu sat up and quietly went to Lu Qingyan’s study door barefoot. The door was not closed tightly, so Lu Qingyan’s voice came from inside.
