The President Made Me Trend - Chapter 380
Mo Qinghuan was just about to get out of the car when Liang Yi suddenly spoke from behind: “Qinghuan-Jie, if you insist on ignoring my advice, I’ll have to consider telling Lu Yucheng about this plan. Since everything started because of him, he should be the one to resolve it. You shouldn’t keep getting dragged into this.”
Since kind words had no effect, Liang Yi had no choice but to make other plans, hoping this threat would make Mo Qinghuan change her mind.
However, her movement to get out of the car froze. She turned back to look at his persistent gaze and sighed, “If that’s what you want, then go ahead. I won’t stop you.”
After Mo Qinghuan finished speaking, she got out of the car. Liang Yi instinctively followed, wanting to explain, but Mo Qinghuan clearly wasn’t listening to anything. His threat just now had been too cruel and had angered her.
“Qinghuan-Jie, listen to me, that’s not what I meant. I just want to take you away from here, so no one can hurt you anymore.” Liang Yi explained anxiously.
Knowing he didn’t mean it, Mo Qinghuan frowned and sighed, replying, “Do you really think a brief escape can keep you safe from harm forever?”
Just as he was about to continue persuading her, a black sedan stopped in front of them. Two bodyguards got out, first apologizing politely to Mo Qinghuan, then moving to restrain Liang Yi. Mo Qinghuan knew these were people arranged by Lu Xuan. If they really took Liang Yi to Lu Xuan, he might be in danger.
Thinking of this, Mo Qinghuan pushed away one of the bodyguards and shouted at the other, “Let him go! Otherwise, I absolutely won’t go back with you.”
“Miss Mo, according to Mr. Lu’s instructions, anyone who deliberately or maliciously approaches you will be considered an enemy. As your bodyguards, we have the right to act on your behalf and deal with such people.” Faced with Mo Qinghuan’s rebuke, the two bodyguards handled it with ease.
Liang Yi was restrained by the strong bodyguards and couldn’t get close to Mo Qinghuan, but he was afraid she’d get hurt, so he shouted, “Qinghuan-Jie, don’t worry. I don’t believe Lu Xuan would actually kill me!”
“Liang Yi, stop talking.” Mo Qinghuan frowned deeply. It seemed he still didn’t understand how dangerous Lu Xuan was. Clenching her fists, Mo Qinghuan looked coldly at the bodyguards who only obeyed Lu Xuan’s orders and continued:
“Almost forgot to remind you-if, because of your negligence today, I get taken out of the hospital by Liang Yi and your Mr. Lu finds out, what do you think he’ll do to such foolish subordinates? I don’t think he’ll let you off easily, right?”
Though it wasn’t obvious, after Mo Qinghuan finished speaking, she still caught a trace of panic on the two bodyguards’ faces.
Seeing them silent, Mo Qinghuan leaned against Liang Yi’s sports car, forcing herself to stand, and continued, “So since you’ll be punished too, why can’t we solve this another way? For example, pretend today never happened.”
“But Mr. Liang tried to take Miss Mo away, this matter…” The bodyguard still seemed hesitant.
Fortunately, Mo Qinghuan reacted quickly. She smiled and replied, “How can that be considered an attempt? Mr. Liang is my good friend. He just took me out for a drive today. If you treat this as nothing but a farce, wouldn’t everything be fine?”
The bodyguards exchanged glances, and one of them let go of Liang Yi, saying to him, “Mr. Liang, we know you and Miss Mo are close, but we hope nothing like this happens again. Otherwise, we won’t rule out using force to deal with your actions.”
After that, the bodyguards took Mo Qinghuan into the black sedan, but Liang Yi still refused to give up and called after her, “Qinghuan-Jie, will you really not regret that decision?”
“No.” Mo Qinghuan didn’t look back, only responding coldly to Liang Yi.
Watching the black sedan drive away, Liang Yi angrily kicked his sports car. Even though the paint was scratched, he didn’t care at all, because his heart was full of confusion over Mo Qinghuan. Lu Yucheng had clearly already betrayed her, so why was she still willing to sacrifice herself to help him?
Thinking of this, Liang Yi clenched his fists. He swore he would tell Lu Yucheng everything about the plan and make him truly understand just how much Mo Qinghuan had done for him.
The bodyguards arranged for Mo Qinghuan to return to the hospital through a special passage, so no one discovered she had ever left the ward.
Fortunately, not long after she returned, Lu Xuan, who had come back from Lu Yucheng’s engagement banquet, pushed open the ward door. Seeing him, Mo Qinghuan instinctively frowned.
Lu Xuan noticed this small gesture. He smiled, stepped forward to tidy the hair on her forehead, and when his fingertips touched her skin, a chill surged in his heart. He immediately touched her cheek and arm warily, asking, “Isn’t the ward warm enough? Why are your hands and face still so cold?”
After all, Mo Qinghuan had just come back from outside, so her body was still a bit cold. Afraid Lu Xuan would notice something, Mo Qinghuan hurriedly explained, “I just felt the ward was stuffy, so I asked the nurse to open the window for some air. It was just closed before you came in, so I’m a bit chilly. It’s fine, I’m not a hothouse flower.”
As she spoke, she subtly avoided Lu Xuan’s overly intimate gestures. Although her explanation was reasonable, Lu Xuan still had some doubts, but he seemed to carelessly ignore them and continued to say to Mo Qinghuan:
“You’re certainly not a hothouse flower, because you’re more delicate and beautiful than any flower. There’s no flower in this world that could match your perfection.”
“Lu Xuan, you’re not suited to say such sweet words.” Mo Qinghuan only felt goosebumps, especially hearing these words from Lu Xuan made her scalp tingle.
Seeing her discomfort, Lu Xuan smiled even more dotingly and continued, “Is it that I’m not suited, or that you’re not used to hearing it? I came to tell you that Lu Yucheng and Shuya’s engagement banquet was a great success. You know, they’ve been childhood sweethearts, and now that their relationship has turned to love, they’ll only get closer.”
“Is that so? Then congratulations to them.” Mo Qinghuan said words that didn’t match her feelings, her hand gripping the bedding tightly.
Noticing Mo Qinghuan’s forbearance, Lu Xuan immediately said, “Didn’t you always hope Lu Yucheng could be happy? Now he’s fulfilled your wish, so from now on, you can try to take your heart back from him and officially become my fiancée, right?”
Looking at Lu Xuan, Mo Qinghuan suddenly remembered what Liang Yi had said-he threatened to tell Lu Yucheng about their plan? Wouldn’t that mean the happiness he just gained would disappear again?
Thinking of this, she suddenly suggested, “The news of Lu Yucheng and Shuya’s engagement will definitely make the headlines on all major websites within twenty-four hours. I’ll probably be caught up in the buzz too, but I’m really tired. Lu Xuan, can you take me away from here?”
