Chapter 312: Second Young Master Lu, Miss Zi Said This Soup Would Be More Effective if Consumed While it’s Hot

At the thought of Lu Jingye’s busy schedule, Zi Yi headed to the kitchen to prepare soup for him the next morning.
The housekeeper stood beside her and looked pleased.
Miss Zi was so concerned about the Second Young Master’s body. Is she preparing to give birth to a fair and chubby little baby when she marries him?
The housekeeper was considering whether he should enroll in lessons to take care of pregnant ladies.
Just then, Zi Yi said to him, “I have to make a trip to the temple in the afternoon. If I don’t have time to deliver the soup to Ah Jing, please send it on my behalf.”
The housekeeper hastily replied. “Sure, Miss ZI.”
Zi Yi added two more Chinese herbal medicinal ingredients to the tonic soup. While stirring the soup, she said, “I cultivated some Blood Lotus with the one Ah Jing had brought back previously and it has germinated these few days. Get someone to make a snow-capped mountain at the rockery area and I will transplant it over.”
The housekeeper rejoiced. “Miss Zi has actually cultivated the Blood Lotus!”
Following that, he asked in a vexed voice. “How is a snow mountain possible here?”
The temperature in the capital was too warm and even if they installed cooling equipment on the rockery, it could not resist the hot sun.
Zi Yi also felt that this was indeed making things difficult for the housekeeper and so, she said, “Then prepare some materials for me. I’ll use them when I come back.”
“I understand.”
When Zi Yi finished preparing the soup, it was already 1 p.m.
After lunch, she gave Lu Jingye a call.
Lu Jingye answered after several seconds and the sounds of typing on a keyboard could be heard first, before Lu Jingye’s gentle voice sounded. “Yiyi.”
The corner of her lips unconsciously curled up. “Ah Jing, I prepared some tonic soup for you and I was planning to deliver it before lunch. But I didn’t expect to finish preparing it only now. I’ll get the housekeeper to deliver it to your office. You have to drink it.”
Lu Jingye remained silent for a few seconds and he asked in a strange tone, “Yiyi, what did you add in the tonic soup today?”
Zi Yi briefly mentioned the medicinal ingredients she had used.
Lu Jingye was silent for another few seconds before he changed the topic. “Where are you going in the afternoon?”
“Auntie said she had asked for a protective talisman on my behalf and asked me to take it from her.”
Lu Jingye’s voice contained traces of a smile upon hearing that. “If it’s getting late when you return, give me a call. I’ll come over and fetch you.”
“Okay.”
Zi Yi grabbed her belongings and left after she ended the call.
Not long after Zi Yi left, the housekeeper delivered the tonic soup.
“Second Young Master, Miss Zi said that this soup would be more effective if consumed while it’s hot.
Lu Jingye looked at the thermal flask and said with a calm expression, “Ok, put it there.”
The housekeeper left after he delivered the soup.
Lu Jingye sat there as he stared at the thermal flask and thought of what would happen in the afternoon if he drank the tonic soup with the medicinal ingredients the young lady had added inside.
The man who devised strategies in the business world was somehow feeling vexed over this right now.
Just then, his phone rang.
The other party seemed to have said something and Lu Jingye’s eyes narrowed as he said, “I’ll be there at once.”
He hung up the phone call and headed outside the office.
Shao Hua just happened to walk in with a document in hand when Lu Jingye came out.
Lu Jingye said, “Leave the documents for tomorrow. If someone asks where I am, hoodwink them.”
Shao Hua did not ask the reason and replied, “I understand.”
Unexpectedly, Lu Jingye added another sentence. “Look after the thermal flask in my office. I will drink it when I return.”
“…I understand.”
Lu Jingye headed to the rooftop to board the helicopter.
…
Zi Yi’s racing car drove on the road towards the mountains.
A while later, she found the situation unusual. “Since there’s a temple fair today, why are there no cars on the road?”
Speaking of here, she subconsciously slowed down and turned on the radar.
Soon, she discovered an ambush a few kilometers ahead.
A sharp glint flashed through her eyes and she parked her car by the roadside as she took out her phone and hacked into Mrs. Lu’s phone. She quickly rummaged through the phone records and sure enough, the record of her calling yesterday had been deleted.
She had already guessed what was going on. She did not call Mrs. Lu and alighted with a backpack. At the same time, she switched on the auto navigation of her car, and the car continued to drive forward at fast speeds.
Zi Yi scanned her surroundings and took out a circular ball and threw it in the skies. It transformed into a detector. Only then, did she walk away from the road and hide behind a large tree. She opened her backpack, took out several tools inside, and quickly assembled it together.
After which, she took out her tablet and connected it to her racing car.
The car had arrived at the ambush area very soon. She saw the ambushers shooting the tires with a gun.
However, they did not reveal themselves but instead, retreated.
Zi Yi walked for a while and found it strange. Just then, she heard the sound of a car driving past.
“What a coincidence.”
She held the tablet and quickly scanned through the car.
There were three people sitting inside.
A driver, a bodyguard, and Lu Zhiheng.
At the sight of this, Zi Yi snorted.
The car had arrived beside her racing car very soon and it stopped there as per her expectation.
Lu Zhiheng first got the bodyguard to alight and check it out.
The bodyguard walked over and did not find anyone. He immediately turned around and informed Lu Zhiheng.
Zi Yi saw the change in his expression. He seemed to have pondered for a few seconds and a glint flashed through his eyes as he immediately took out his phone and made a call.
“Second Brother, I saw your girlfriend’s car parked at the side of Panshan Road towards the temple. My bodyguard went to check and found it empty. The tires were busted by bullets.”
Lu Jingye said something and the corner of Lu Zhiheng’s lips curled up. “Alright, I’ll get the bodyguard to search for her too.”
He hung up the phone immediately after.
Zi Yi switched off the monitoring and gave Lu Jingye a call.
The call was connected very soon and his dimmed voice sounded. “Yiyi, where are you right now?”
Zi Yi was a little surprised when she heard the noise in his surroundings. “You’re on a helicopter?”
In fact, the helicopter was soundproof, but Zi Yi’s ears were very sensitive and had identified the sound at once.
Lu Jingye responded and said, “I had something to attend to on my side and I received a call from my eldest cousin. I was just planning to make my way over.”
“Go ahead and attend to your matters,” Zi Yi said. “I am currently standing behind a large tree 3 kilometers from the entrance of the mountains. I sent Little Loli a message earlier to get her to pick me up.”
“Something happened to my younger brother and I have to make a trip there right now. Protect yourself. Go ahead and take care of them if you want. I’ll take care of it.”
Zi Yi’s lips curved up when she heard his words and happily responded. “Okay.”
