Chapter 1268: I Don’t Have That Intention
Hong Jinyun found out that Bai Xiaonian only had her legs injured and that the child was alright…
However, Bai Xiaonian’s father underwent surgery due to intracerebral hemorrhaging and was at the hospital. Hong Jinyun then told Lu Jinnan’s assistant that she had always been grateful for Lu Jinnan’s help and had been wanting to make things clear to Lu Jinnan, telling him to stop this. This was a good opportunity to break it off!
The assistant smiled but didn’t say anything.
Hong Jinyun’s mother tugged hard at Hong Jinyun’s arm, but Hong Jinyun didn’t seem to care about it. She continued to say on the phone, “However, I feel bad for what my mother has done, causing a mishap to Bai Xiaonian and her father. Would it be possible for you to tell me which hospital they’re at? I plan on bringing my mother to go and apologize to them before returning to the United States!”
Lu Jinnan’s assistant refused to give the address to Hong Jinyun but said that he would help Hong Jinyun extend her apology to Lu Jinnan, Bai Xiaonian, and Bai Xiaonian’s father.
After hanging up the call, Hong Jinyun turned to look at her mother. “Make the preparations and make a trip with me to Haicheng Medical University’s affiliated hospital!”
Hong Jinyun knew that Lu Jinnan’s good friend, Bai Jinyu, worked at Haicheng Medical University’s affiliated hospital.
Therefore, given Lu Jinnan’s character, he’d definitely send Bai Xiaonian’s father there. Moreover… Bai Jinyu was the greatest doctor in Haicheng at the moment. Given what high regard Lu Jinnan had toward Bai Jinyu, it was likely that he’d get Bai Jinyu to personally conduct the surgery for Bai Xiaonian’s father.
“At this time? What time is it now?” Hong Jinyun’s mother frowned.
“Then, do you really want to go back to the United States tomorrow?” Hong Jinyun weakly put on her coat as she asked.
Hong Jinyun’s mother was stunned and then looked at Hong Jinyun in a daze…
After Hong Jinyun put on her coat, she held onto the bed and turned to say to her mother, “You’re the only mother I have! I know how much you’ve done for me. I can’t break Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian apart and let you become Lu Jinnan’s legitimate mother-in-law. However, it’s like what you said… I can make use of the pity and guilt that Lu Jinnan feels toward me to give you assurance for your future!”
As Hong Jinyun said this, tears rolled down her eyes. “Can you stop doing excessive things? Trust me… I’ll definitely give you a stable future, even if I have to shamelessly scheme against Lu Jinnan. But can you stop trying to break apart Lu Jinnan’s marriage and stop forcibly pushing me over to him?”
Hong Jinyun’s mother pursed her lips, not saying a word.
“I’ll go wash my face!” Hong Jinyun cheered up and went to wash her face.
Looking at her reflection in the mirror, she took out the foundation compact she hadn’t used for a very long time to make herself look paler. For her mother… just this one time, she, Hong Jinyun… would scheme against Lu Jinnan!
…
Lu Jinnan’s assistant brought the daily necessities over to the hospital according to Lu Jinnan’s instructions. The reason he stayed so late was that he was afraid that Lu Jinnan would have further instructions and wouldn’t be able to find anyone else.
Lu Jinnan told his assistant to go back and rest and then come early tomorrow morning. The assistant had always been compliant toward Lu Jinnan’s orders and could only nod.
When Hong Jinyun arrived at the hospital, Lu Jinnan’s assistant happened to come out of the elevator.
When the assistant saw the pale-faced Hong Jinyun and her mother, he was a little surprised. Without a second thought, he stopped the two of them in their tracks.
“Miss Hong, Madam Li… How did you find your way here?” Lu Jinnan’s assistant smiled and put out his hand to invite the two of them to step to the side of the elevator lobby, preventing the two of them from going upstairs. He was very polite toward them. “I recall that I didn’t tell Miss Hong the address of the hospital that Mrs. Lu and her father are at.”
Hong Jinyun’s eyes were red, and she nodded. “I remembered that Jinnan’s good friend, Bai Jinyu, works at this hospital, so I came by to try my luck… to see if Bai Xiaonian and her father are at this hospital!”
After saying that, Hong Jinyun bowed toward Lu Jinnan’s assistant. “I’m very sorry. I really only wanted to come and give my apology. That, and to make sure that Bai Xiaonian and… her child, as well as Bai Xiaonian’s father, are well!”
Tears trickled down from Hong Jinyun’s eyes as she said this, and her complexion turned increasingly pale.
The assistant didn’t feel any pity for Hong Jinyun when he saw her like this. He smiled and said, “Miss Hong, if you really want to apologize, then don’t appear before Mrs. Lu and her father. Miss Hong, you’re a smart person. You should know that… your appearance is considered secondary damage to Mrs. Lu and her father!”
Hong Jinyun’s countenance didn’t look good.
“So… what I mean is, since you really feel bad, then the clearest and best way to apologize is not to appear before them. Don’t look for President Lu anymore. This is the best way for you to express your apology! Don’t you think so?”
Seeing that Hong Jinyun had her lips pursed tightly, as if thinking about how she should reply, the assistant continued to say, “At this point, you and your mother’s appearance is just adding salt to the wound. This is something that people with discerning eyes would notice. If it wasn’t because of your past ties with Mr. Lu, to speak the truth… I would think that you came over to agitate Mrs. Lu because she didn’t suffer a miscarriage, wanting her to have one!”
Hong Jinyun seemed to have been frightened by the assistant’s words. She took a step back anxiously, sobbing as she said, “I… I never!”
The assistant continued to wear a smile. “Of course, you’re Sir’s old friend, and it’s unlikely that you’d be so shameless. Then, in order not to let other people have misunderstandings, it’s best for you to bring your mother back and have an early rest!”
Hong Jinyun looked up, met the assistant’s polite and smiling gaze, and felt a shiver down her spine. Even her hair was going to stand up. She felt as if she had been seen through easily by this man.
“I… I don’t have that intention!”
The assistant continued to smile and nodded. “Of course. I know that Miss Hong doesn’t have that intention. Does Miss Hong need me to help you get a taxi?”
After saying that, the assistant took out his phone from his pocket. Before Hong Jinyun could reply to him, he helped her call for a taxi. He then politely and respectfully said to Hong Jinyun and her mother, “The car will arrive in five minutes. I’ll send the two of you out…”
Hong Jinyun’s mother couldn’t bear it and glared and pointed at Lu Jinnan’s assistant. “Who are you to…”
Hong Jinyun grabbed onto her mother, not wanting to blow the matter up. She turned her teary gaze away from the assistant and said to her mother, “What he said is right. Maybe… it’s not good for both Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian for us to go up now. Let’s leave first!”
The assistant smiled and nodded. “Miss Hong is very reasonable!”
“But…”
“Mom!” Hong Jinyun called out with a warning tone as she pressed down on her mother’s wrist, saying with a sobbing voice, “Let’s leave first!”
After the assistant sent Hong Jinyun and her mother into the taxi, his smiling face sank. He then turned to the parking lot to get his car.
