Chapter 60: Sudden Changes
Since that lesson, Yang Xingyun had been in a precarious situation, let alone helping his little cousin deal with his “ex-boyfriend“.
Qi Yue had been relatively calm during this period. Qi Weixiong was busy with internal strife between Guo Xia and Qi Lei. Yang Xingyun and Yang Ruiheng were also in a precarious situation. Shen Kuozhi hadn’t been in touch recently, allowing Yang Xingyun to focus on his career and lead Yuetting Technology Company to thrive.
After the company secured another major deal and firmly established its foothold in the market in the capital, Qi Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief and allowed the company’s employees to take a good break.
There was little room left for Qi Weixiong’s situation to turn around. He also needed to repay his debt to Shen Kuozhi and discuss the end of their cooperation.
[Qi Yue: Do you have time recently?]
Qi Yue sent a message to Shen Kuozhi before leaving work, and a few minutes later, he received a reply.
[Shen Kuozhi: I’ve been quite busy recently, what’s up?]
[Qi Yue: Nothing much, I’d like to invite you for a meal when you have time.]
[Shen Kuozhi: Okay, I’ll finish up my work as soon as possible.]
[Qi Yue: No rush, I can wait.]
Qi Yue put down his phone, feeling a bit empty inside for some reason.
It seemed he had indeed been overworked recently and should take some time to relax and have fun.
[Qi Yue: Are you going out for fun recently?]
[Lin Xiao: Of course! Boss Qi, you have to come and grace us with your presence.]
[Qi Yue: How are things with him recently?]
[Lin Xiao: Just fine, I’m reeling him in, gotta assert my authority.]
[Qi Yue: Indeed, you need to maintain control, or you’ll lose your precious pearls again.]
[Lin Xiao: Nonsense! It’s all part of my strategy!]
[Lin Xiao: Rolling Kitty. JPG]
Recently, Qi Yue had been so busy he practically lived in the office, but now he finally had some time to stay with Lin Xiao.
After arranging their vacation plans, Qi Yue tidied up and locked the company door, giving himself a short break of three days.
As soon as he got home, Qi Yue received a bear hug from Lin Xiao.
“My dear Yue Yue, I missed you so much!”
Lin Xiao hugged him tightly and planted a kiss on his cheek. Before he finished, he held Qi Yue’s cheeks in his hands, looking left and right, pouting, “You’ve lost some weight since last time!”
“Really? It must be your imagination; I haven’t lost weight at all~” Qi Yue said with a blink, looking innocent.
Lin Xiao finally let go of Qi Yue’s fair cheeks and grabbed his arm instead, walking and talking at the same time, “Hurry up and take a look at the three-day relaxation plan I made! It’s absolutely perfect!”
They hadn’t seen each other for quite some time. Both Qi Yue and Lin Xiao had been busy lately, but now they had finally gotten a break.
Lin Xiao proudly presented his iPad to Qi Yue, showing him the plan he had made.
“Wow! So detailed, Xiao Xiao, you’re amazing! I definitely can’t live without you~” Qi Yue exclaimed as he looked at the detailed plan, which included multiple options, so he could simply follow Lin Xiao without using his brain at all.
Since they were only going to play for three days, neither of them liked spending too much time commuting. Therefore, they planned to mainly stay around the capital city this time.
“Hehe~ Of course~ Have you forgotten who I am?” Lin Xiao was delighted by Qi Yue’s praise. Anyone whose efforts were appreciated would naturally be very happy.
“Then let’s stay home and rest up tonight, and we’ll leave tomorrow morning!”
“On the first day, let’s go to a hot spring. My cousin just opened a new hot spring hotel, and I haven’t had the chance to experience it yet. We can also enjoy some delicious food and try some local snacks. On the second day, let’s go racing! It’s been a while since we’ve done that. And on the third day, let’s go fishing. It’s been too long since we’ve enjoyed some quiet fishing time~”
Lin Xiao had already begun to fantasize about their vacation for the next three days.
Qi Yue was just there as an emotional audience, agreeing with everything.
They ordered takeout from the hotel for dinner, watched a movie while eating, stayed in the air-conditioned room, drank some wine, and felt very content.
After watching the movie, they played games for a while and didn’t go to bed until eleven o’clock.
When the soft morning sunlight illuminated the room through the off-white curtains, the person lying sprawled on the soft, white bed was awakened by a gentle ringtone.
The sound woke up the person lying on the bed, Lin Xiao, who slowly reached for the bedside table with sleepy eyes.
Who would dare to call him so early in the morning?
Lin Xiao grumbled unhappily and answered the phone without even looking at the incoming call.
“Who is it?” The soft, coquettish voice with a hint of nasal tone came through the phone.
Lin Xiao considered himself to have a rather irritable tone and hoped the caller had a genuine reason, or he’d be really angry!
“Hello, this is Linya Private Hospital. Your husband has been in a car accident and is currently undergoing emergency treatment. We need you to come over.”
“Nonsense!”
When did he get a husband? He was a young man in his prime. How could he suddenly wake up at home and find himself married? It was absurd beyond belief, and he couldn’t even come up with a decent excuse!
The current scammer was simply incompetent.
Lin Xiao angrily hung up the phone. Just because his voice sounded sweet, did they think they could disturb him so early in the morning?
He wasn’t buying it!
At the very least, they should use a baritone voice to disturb him~
As Lin Xiao drifted off into his thoughts, he began to doze off again.
But unexpectedly, the phone rang again. Lin Xiao guessed it must be the same scammer calling.
Humph, one trick wasn’t enough for them, and now they wanted to try a second time. Did they think he was easy to fool? He wasn’t stupid!
At this moment, Lin Xiao’s eyes were completely closed. He couldn’t open them at all.
It was probably only a little past five in the morning, which was torture for someone like him who stayed up late all the time!
Lin Xiao thought that if he completely ignored the scammer’s calls, they would move on to another target.
But he didn’t expect the caller to persist, calling again and again, refusing to give up.
Finally, with a snap, Lin Xiao opened his eyes. He wanted to see what the other person was up to!
But when he saw the note on the phone screen, he was instantly wide awake.
The note read “Big Silly Dog Yue.” Wasn’t this Yue Tingyun’s phone number?
As Lin Xiao connected the dots between the car accident mentioned earlier and the caller, he suddenly became alert.
“Who are you, and why are you using Yue Tingyun’s phone?”
“Hello, this is Linya Private Hospital. The owner of this phone was in a car accident this morning, and we need a family member to come over.”
“You need a family member to come, but I’m not a family member. Why did you contact me? What about his parents?”
“The owner of the phone has you listed as ‘wife,’ so we contacted you. Aren’t you?”
Damn it! What’s wrong with this Yue Tingyun, taking advantage of him in front of strangers?
Rubbing his forehead, Lin Xiao quickly asked, “What do I need to bring over?”
“We need you to come to sign some documents and pay for the surgery.”
“Okay, arrange the surgery quickly, I’ll be there soon.”
After hanging up the hospital’s call, Lin Xiao felt a lump in his chest early in the morning.
This guy Yue Tingyun was really his nemesis! Either he was causing trouble for him or he was on the path to trouble. What karma had he accrued to fall for such an unlucky guy?
Lin Xiao called his elder brother and asked him to contact Yue Tingyun’s parents.
Although he didn’t have Yue Tingyun’s parents’ contact information, his elder brother would definitely be able to get it.
After making the urgent call to his brother, Lin Xiao got up, quickly washed up, and prepared to leave for the hospital.
But to his surprise, when Lin Xiao opened the door, he came face to face with Qi Yue, who was in the kitchen looking for food.
“Leaving already?”
“Why are you up so early?”
Both of them spoke at the same time.
Originally, their vacation plan was to drive to the hot spring hotel at ten in the morning. But now, it was only six in the morning, and they were already standing face-to-face in the living room.
“Yue Tingyun had a car accident, and I need to go see if he’s dead or alive.”
Lin Xiao was irritated just thinking about Yue Tingyun.
“Don’t worry, I’ll go with you. I just need to change clothes, and then we can leave.”
“Okay.”
Qi Yue approached Lin Xiao and comfortingly patted his shoulder.
As they were nearing the hospital, Qi Yue realized that their destination was Linya Private Hospital. It seemed he had some connection with this hospital after all.
Upon entering the lobby, they asked the nurses for Yue Tingyun’s room number.
At this moment, Yue Tingyun was in the ICU undergoing emergency treatment. When Lin Xiao heard “ICU,” his legs almost gave out, but fortunately, Qi Yue quickly supported him.
“It’s okay. The doctors at Linya are highly skilled. Yue Tingyun will be fine.”
While Qi Yue comfortingly patted Lin Xiao’s back, he led him to the ICU area.
He was somewhat familiar with this route since he had been here half a month ago.
But to Qi Yue’s surprise, he seemed to have seen Secretary Zhang on the way here.
Qi Yue considered himself to have a good memory and sharp eyesight. That was indeed Secretary Zhang just now; he couldn’t be mistaken.
Secretary Zhang was Shen Kuozhi’s capable assistant. Why would he be here so early in the morning?
Could it be…
Qi Yue didn’t want to think further, but he couldn’t help but imagine the worst-case scenario.
Could it be that Shen Kuozhi was hospitalized again?
Or worse, Shen Kuozhi hadn’t actually been discharged from the hospital at all.
Regardless of the scenario, it wasn’t ideal for Qi Yue.
He didn’t have any special feelings for Shen Kuozhi; he was just concerned about his business partner. He didn’t want any issues to arise during their cooperation.
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Qi Yue decided to deal with Yue Tingyun’s situation first before verifying his suspicions.
When they arrived at the door of the ICU where Yue Tingyun was undergoing surgery, the nurse in charge of Yue Tingyun handed them a consent form.
“Are you Mr. Yue’s partner? We need you to sign this. If you need to pay, you can do so at the window over there.”
“Okay, thank you. But I’m not his family member; I’ve already informed his family,” Lin Xiao said hoarsely, “Is the surgery risky? How is Yue Tingyun’s condition?”
