Bringing the Nation's Husband Home

Only when they reached the outside of the front yard did Lu Jinnian stop. He passed the bottle of swallow’s nest over to his assistant and instructed, ”Check the contents. Remember to find a trustworthy doctor and don’t let anyone in the Xu family find out, inform me immediately when the results are out.”

In the past, Qiao Anhao would feel weak and exhausted whenever she was on her period, but it was never as bad as she was feeling right now, it was as though she was having a grave illness.

Her entire body was lifeless and weak, and she spent a huge amount of time in deep sleep. Every time she woke up, Lu Jinnian would be in the room, either giving her drinks or feeding her meals.

Initially, she had been confused by his warm and caring act and didn’t know how to react, but gradually, she got used to him.

After about five days, she had planned to return back to filming, but the director received a call and pushed back the filming by two more days.

The first three days, Qiao Anhao had bled immensely, but gradually, the flow decreased and by the sixth day, the bleeding stopped. Her body was no longer as weak as before and she could start to move about and eat her meals downstairs in the dinning area.

Madam Chen was watching the television in the living room when she saw Qiao Anhao. She stood up immediately, asking, ”Mrs. Lu, you’re awake?”

”Yea,” Qiao Anhao murmured, walking to the water cooler to get a cup of water. She took a sip before putting the cup down and asking, ”Where’s Lu Jinnian?”

”Mr. Lu? Isn’t he upstairs?” Madam Chen asked with doubt. She then added, ”After he took his meal, he went up and did not come back down.”

”Oh,” Qiao Anhao replied, returning back upstairs. She went to the bathroom in the bedroom, then entered the changing room, but Lu Jinnian was nowhere to be seen. Hence she walked to the study room.

It wasn’t locked. She turned the knob lightly, pushing the door open...

While Qiao Anhao was asleep, Lu Jinnian had received a text from his assistant, [”Mr. Lu, the results are out.]
