Chapter 501 - 501: Is Lu Lingche a Robber?
Chapter 501: Chapter 501: Is Lu Lingche a Robber?
Qiao Yin had originally thought that she might not be able to fall asleep, but surprisingly, she managed to sleep soundly until dawn.
Upon waking up the next day, her physical and mental energies were fully restored.
She glanced out the window and found her car already returned, parked in its usual spot.
Lu Lingche had kept his word. Otherwise, if the car wasn’t returned, she would definitely have given him a piece of her mind.
After freshening up and having breakfast, she got in the car with her grandmother, preparing to head to the medical clinic.
Once she got into the car, Qiao Yin noticed something was off — numerous items were missing from her car.
More accurately, aside from her acupuncture toolkit, almost everything in her car was gone!
However, in front of her grandmother, she kept silent, nonchalantly put on her seat belt, and drove off.
Midway through the ride, her grandmother asked her strangely, “Yinyin, where’s the sachet hanging in your car?”
Forced to lie on the spot, Qiao Yin fabricated a story, “Yesterday when I went to Shensong Hospital, a nurse took a fancy to it, so I gave it to her.”
Shen Yujun shook her head disapprovingly, “Wasn’t that the sachet you spent so much time creating using rare herbs and spices? You’re always too generous, giving away everything.”
Qiao Yin could only laugh awkwardly, while internally cursing Lu Lingche to oblivion.
She should never have let him drive her car!
He was like a thief, taking everything he could. Even the sun-protection clothes she kept in her car were gone!
If he could have made use of the acupuncture toolkit, she doubted that would have been left either!
Most importantly, a stack of draft papers were nowhere to be found!
Those papers contained Shensong Hospital’s operational plans for the coming half-year, penned by her!
Though it was just a rough draft she had worked on in the last few days, it contained confidential business information, detailing the future of the hospital!
Damn Lu Lingche — why would he take her drafts? Could he be plotting against Shensong Hospital?
Shensong Hospital was instrumental in her plans to take down Lan’s Hospital, and she couldn’t afford any mistakes.
If Lu Lingche dared to harm Shensong Hospital, she swore she would fight him to the end.
Just as Qiao Yin was gritting her teeth in anger, her mobile phone rang.
It was a call from Dongfang Mu.
He rarely woke up this early, let alone called her this early. Something must have happened.
Qiao Yin answered, “Good morning, Young Master Mu.”
“Qiao Yin, are you free today? I need your help! A major project of our corporation has been intercepted by the Shengling Group. I must get it back!”
Is it time to deal with the Shengling Group?
Qiao Yin agreed without a moment’s hesitation, “Young Master Mu, I’m free. I’ll drop my grandmother off at the clinic first, and then head to the corporation.”
“Alright, thank you!”
“No need for thanks, Young Master Mu. You’re too polite.”
After ending the call, Qiao Yin sped up towards the clinic.
Shen Yujun had heard the entire conversation, “Yinyin, you’re really too busy. Between the clinic, the hospital, and the corporation, you’re working three jobs at once. Be careful not to overwork yourself! I have some savings, enough for us to live comfortably. Don’t kill yourself working so hard, it’s like you’re trying to do the work of three people.”
Qiao Yin felt warmth in her heart. She gave her grandmother a brilliant smile, “I’m not tired, Grandma. I’m young and full of energy! Although I got a bit exhausted yesterday, I feel rejuvenated after a good night’s sleep!”
“Also, I think there’s nothing wrong with being busy. It’s important to keep busy, otherwise one might lose their fighting spirit and miss a lot of money-making opportunities. If we need money in the future, we won’t be clueless. Plus, my collaboration with Dongfang Mu isn’t just for money, it’s also a strategy against Lu Lingche. As long as he’s unhappy, I’m content. It would be a waste not to utilize the strong assistance of the Eastern Empire!”
Shen Yujun’s expression was mixed, “So you’re still hung up on Lu Lingche.”
The smile on Qiao Yin’s face froze a bit, “What are you talking about, Grandma? I am indeed taking action against him, aren’t I? I can’t just take the losses he’s caused lying down, can I?”
