Chapter 611: Chapter 611: Lan Yuyi has a high status in her maternal home.
Lu Lingche didn’t realize he had buttoned wrong. He thought he was doing a decent job serving Qiao Yin; he was pleased with his own efforts.
He kissed her forehead again, whispering softly, “Let me take you home.”
With that, he got out of the car, returned to the driver’s seat, and started driving towards her house.
Qiao Yin could still feel the warmth of his kiss on her forehead. She couldn’t help but rub it off, unable to resist a glance at him.
From her angle, she could only see his side profile, but even just that was incredibly handsome and dashing.
In the past, it was his face that had tricked her, causing her to fall so deeply for him that she could see no other man. The mere chance of marrying him had kept her awake all night in excitement.
Who would have known that this bastard, with his devilishly good looks, didn’t do human things at all!
But tonight, he was acting strange, sparing her for once.
In the past, he never held back in such situations. During their married period, he could be described as unrestrained.
She had no idea he could be so unrestrained. She had thought he was as cold as ice and wouldn’t touch her.
Perhaps she had been staring at him for too long. He noticed and asked casually, “Why are you looking at me? Is there money on my face?”
Qiao Yin averted her gaze and thought of a question, “Did you not drink alcohol tonight?”
“No.”
“Didn’t you have social obligations? Why didn’t you drink?”
“I don’t want to drink, so nobody dared to force me to. After suffering in the past, I hardly drink anymore.”
It took Qiao Yin a moment to realize that when he mentioned suffering, he referred to the experience with Lan Yuyi.
Speaking of Lan Yuyi, Qiao Yin remembered Lan’s Hospital.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Lan’s Hospital was recently engulfed in a new scandal. Online rumors were rife about the Hospital Director, Lan’s wife killing his mistress, and him punishing his wife for revenge.
Many were criticizing Lan Ruikang, and Lan’s Hospital became the target of attacks.
Under such public pressure, Lan’s Hospital was preparing to replace the Hospital Director.
However, opinions on the new director varied. Some said it would be one of Lan Yuyi’s uncles, some predicted Lan Yuyi herself.
Interestingly, despite her insufficient qualifications, the support for Lan Yuyi was surprisingly high.
Qiao Yin had suspicions about a possible contributor behind this and asked Lu Lingche, “I heard that Lan’s Hospital is changing directors. Do you know who it might be?”
Her topics were quite erratic, causing Lu Lingche to frown slightly, “Why are you asking this?”
“No reason, Director Lan’s matters have been making big news, I just randomly asked.”
But Lu Lingche knew that her question was more than mere curiosity.
With little thought, he understood why she was interested in Lan’s Hospital.
First, she disliked Lan Yuyi, who on many occasions had threatened her life. Hence, she was naturally interested in the happenings at her hospital.
Secondly, Qiao Yin was currently running Shensong Hospital, a private hospital just like Lan’s Hospital, thus making it a competitor. It was not unreasonable for her to want insights into her competitor’s situation.
“I don’t really care about Lan family’s affairs, much less those of Lan’s Hospital. However, they are indeed changing the director, but I didn’t ask who the new one will be. I can ask around for you tomorrow if you want to know.”
Qiao Yin was on alert, “Who are you going to ask?”
Lu Lingche saw her vigilance from the rearview mirror and chuckled lightly, “Worried I’ll go ask Lan Yuyi?”
“Not at all, I was just asking casually.”
“Relax, I won’t ask her. Asking her would be useless anyway, she doesn’t hold the final say in the Lan family anymore.”
“Really? I heard she has quite some say in the Lan family since she is now considered as your wife, the Young Madam of the Lu family, hence her high status in her maternal home.”
Lu Lingche sighed a little helplessly, “She is not my wife; I haven’t looked into her position in the Lan family. I am busy enough dealing with you every day, I don’t have time to bother about her.”
