Chapter 889 - Mrs. Chu will Wake up Soon
Xia Ruoxin hugged the documents and left without looking back.
For a second, Chu Lui thought he saw the person who had disappeared for half a year. The woman who had disappeared with his daughter, never to be found.
She had evaporated from the face of the earth like she did four years ago. It was almost as if there was never a woman called Xia Ruoxin in the world.
Xia Ruoxin packed up her things from the table. When she was about to leave, she saw Secretary Xiao Chen on the side. She seemed unwell and was hugging her stomach, and cold sweat appeared on her head.
“What’s wrong?” Xia Ruoxin walked over and helped Secretary Xiao Chen. “Why are you sweating so much?”
“It’s nothing.” Secretary Xiao Chen sat down. “It might be that my period’s here so my stomach hurts.” As she spoke, she broke out in a sweat; and her face turned white.
She stood up again. “CEO asked me to send a set of documents. I have to go now, or I’ll be late.” She suddenly hugged her stomach after she spoke, and she was almost on the floor.
Men would never understand how badly menstrual cramps could hurt, just like women never understand how bad it hurt to be kicked in their testicles.
“How about this…?” Xia Ruoxin thought about it and then took the documents over. “I’ll send it for you.”
“But how can I ask that of you?” Secretary Xiao Chen was in so much pain that she was gritting her teeth. She was struggling to walk now, not to mention deliver documents.
“It’s okay, I’ll do it.”
Xia Ruoxin hugged the document.
“Then, thank you.” Secretary Xiao Chen lay on her table face down in pain.
“Oh, right,” She looked up again. There was something she had not said yet. “The CEO’s home is at…”
“I know.” Xia Ruoxin took off her coat and covered Secretary Xiao Chen with it. “I’ll go deliver the document. What about you?”
“I… am fine…” Secretary Xiao Chen did not even want to talk anymore. “My husband will be coming to get me soon. I’ll be troubling you with the document.”
“You’re welcome.” Xia Ruoxin looked at her watch and left, preparing to go to the Chu family house.
She did not need anyone to tell her where their Chu family home was. Their old and new homes and their other homes — she knew them all.
She hailed a cab and got on.
Chu Jiang and Song Wan had moved back to their old home. They had lived their lives for a long time, and that was their favorite place no matter what. People were all sentimental.
She pressed the doorbell, and the Chu family’s nanny of many years opened the door.
“Hello, I’m looking for Mr. Chu.” She held up the document in her hand. “I’m his assistant, here to deliver a document on behalf of his secretary.”
The nanny confirmed that the document was from the Chu Enterprise. All their documents were marked, and only employees could bring the documents out of the company so she let Xia Ruoxin in.
“Where’s Mr. Chu?” Xia Ruoxin asked the nanny. She walked over to the shoe rack and took off her high heels. There were slippers for guests right there, and she changed into them.
The nanny was rather surprised. She felt that the secretary seemed rather familiar with the house, but this should be the first time this secretary has been here.
Xia Ruoxin changed into the slippers and waited for the caretaker’s reply.
The caretaker only came to her senses after a while. “Ah, young miss, you’re referring to the younger Mr. Chu? He’s currently accompanying Madam.”
Madam? Xia Ruoxin hugged the documents. Her red lips touched, and she could taste the fruity lip gloss on her lips. It was a little much, and she intended to change it out tomorrow.
As for Madam, she knew exactly who the caretaker was referring to.
Song Wan.
She was reaping the fruits of her work, and karma had come for her.
“I’ll head inside first.” Xia Ruoxin nodded at the caretaker and headed upstairs. The caretaker was going to show her the way, but it seemed like she knew it already.
Xia Ruoxin went up the stairs. She first turned right, then left, and headed straight before she saw the door. A little girl was standing at the door. There was a small slit in the door, and the child’s head was almost through the gap.
Chu Xiang.
Xia Ruoxin did not like the child. The only thing she thought of when she saw that child was that Chu Xiang had her daughter’s kidney. She walked over and placed her hand on the door.
Knock, knock. She knocked on the door, scaring Chu Xiang, who hurried down the stairs. The door opened, and Chu Lui was at the door. He was tall, and without her shoes, Xia Ruoxin was even shorter than him.
Chu Lui took the time to compare the heights.
Even their heights were similar.
Xia Ruoxin looked away briefly. He noticed that, too. She then handed the documents over.
“CEO, I’m here to deliver the documents on behalf of Xiao Chen. She’s not feeling well.”
Chu Lui took the documents and flipped through it briefly. He needed them urgently. He had a meeting tomorrow, and these documents were really important to him.
“Thank you.” It was rare for the great CEO Chu to thank an employee.
“This is my duty as an employee,” Xia Yixuan replied mechanically. She looked past Chu Lui and saw the woman lying on the bed, Song Wan. Xia Yixuan was there, too, of course.
Xia Yixuan was helping Song Wan to massage her muscles. Xia Ruoxin really did not understand how she could face someone she almost killed so naturally.
Her gaze returned to Chu Lui, and she finally understood. Xia Yixuan was not a good person that felt guilty. She was doing it for Chu Lui, to be close to him. Xia Yixuan was definitely smarter than Li Manni, knowing to make her move on the people around Chu Lui.
Xia Yixuan looked up and met Xia Ruoxin’s eyes. She got upset immediately. “Why are you here?”
“I’m here to deliver documents for our CEO,” Xia Ruoxin answered plainly and wrapped her arms around her chest.
“I see Ms. Xia not only looks good and comes from a good family. You’re really good at taking care of people. At the rate you’re going, Mrs. Chu will wake up really soon.”
Xia Yixuan’s expression changed. That statement made her heart drop. No, it shouldn’t be. Song Wan should not wake up. She would have woken up if she were meant to do that.
Xia Ruoxin took a step back.
“CEO, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first,” she said to Chu Lui evenly.
Chu Lui leaned on the door the whole time, keeping silent.
