Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 417: Chapter 415 Yue Tingting’s Illness (2nd Update)

In the midst of the bustling traffic, a Bentley weaved through the flow of cars, heading towards the First People’s Hospital of Modu City.

”Wife, are you sure you want to come with me to the hospital, and you’re not joking with me?”

Sitting in the passenger seat, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath and turned to look at Bai Zhiqing, who was focused on driving, his tone still laced with disbelief.

Wasn’t Yue Tingting her love rival? Could it be that she planned to engage in a live PK with Yue Tingting this time? When that happened, who should he support, or should he just stand aside and enjoy the show, a real-life PK between two beauties was certainly not a common sight.

”What, I can’t go with you? Or am I bothering you by following you?”

Seeing the look on Lu Tianxing’s face, Bai Zhiqing instantly felt displeased. Lu Tianxing’s expression clearly suggested that she was like a jealous wife, always consumed by jealousy.

”Not at all. Absolutely no disturbance, if anyone dares to say it’s a bother, I’ll slap them to death,” Lu Tianxing said with his arms waving and a righteous indignation.

Bai Zhiqing snorted, ”As if you’d have the guts. If you even dare to think about doing anything to Tingting, I’ll go home and buy two durians.”

Lu Tianxing was startled, ”Buy durians for what?”

Bai Zhiqing sneered, saying lightly, ”To eat, of course. But before eating, I’ll have you kneel. It’s said that durians taste especially good that way.”

”Kneeling on durians.”

Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but inhale sharply, as the thought of the dense spikes on a durian came to mind—his knees ached at the mere idea, shivering inwardly at the thought of being tortured.

”Wife, where did you see this thing?”

Lu Tianxing felt a bitter taste in his mouth. Wasn’t Bai Zhiqing a strong businesswoman who had never been in love before? How come when dealing with her own husband, she was one step ahead with every move, without any repetition? That seemed a bit too cunning.

There’s a saying that a woman’s IQ turns negative after falling in love, and it becomes comparable to Sherlock Holmes after marriage, but no one said that women become omniscient and experts in tormenting others after marriage.

”I saw it online.”

Bai Zhiqing boasted proudly, ”There’s not only ’kneel on durians’, but also ’kneel on the remote control without changing channels’, ’kneel on cacti’, ’kneel on keyboards’, ’kneel on computer motherboards’... and so on, too many to count. Lu Tianxing, if you dare to be unfaithful, I assure you I’ll let you try them all.”

”Wife, we don’t have to be so cruel, do we?”

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Zhiqing with eyes full of horror. At this moment, Bai Zhiqing was like a demon brandishing a pitchfork, exuding an evil aura that was chilling to the bone.

”The best way to deal with a fickle carrot like you is this.”

Bai Zhiqing snorted with satisfaction. She loved seeing Lu Tianxing in this fearful state; even though she knew in her heart that Lu Tianxing was just trying to cheer her up, Bai Zhiqing still felt as sweet inside as if she had drunk honey. After all, having someone willing to make you happy was enough. If one day, the man wasn’t even willing to humor you, would he still hold you in his heart?

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Zhiqing with a face full of resignation. He found that although Bai Zhiqing was no longer as cold as before, her heart had become darker and darker, even resorting to methods like kneeling on cacti. She knew how to look up tricks online—this was the rhythm of turning her into a shrew for life.

Lu Tianxing suddenly thought it’d be great to find someone to hack all those strategy websites. Damn it, this was like teaching people’s wives to become shrews. A perfectly good wife was being taught to be a fierce shrew; truly, it was leading other people’s wives astray.

”By the way, Lu Tianxing, do you know what sickness Tingting has caught?” Bai Zhiqing suddenly asked.

”I don’t know.”

Lu Tianxing’s face darkened as he shook his head. Just a couple of days ago, when he saw Yue Tingting, she didn’t seem to be on the brink of death at all; she was lively and full of life. How could she suddenly need to be admitted to the ICU?

”Lu Tianxing, don’t worry, Tingting has her own lucky star, and she will be fine. If it comes to it, we can bring experts from abroad to treat her. Bai’s Group is lacking nothing except money,” Bai Zhiqing said softly, trying to comfort him.

”Wife, you....”

”You don’t need to thank me. If a wife doesn’t understand her husband’s concerns, who will?”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing looked at her deeply without saying anything further, just gently squeezing her hand and turning his gaze out of the window, worry shining in his eyes.

Fifteen minutes later, the Bentley stopped in the underground parking lot of Modu City’s First People’s Hospital. Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing got out of the car without any delay, took the elevator to the third floor, and hurried towards the ICU.

”Uncle, aunt, how is Tingting doing? Is it serious? What in the world happened? Wasn’t Tingting fine just yesterday?”

As they turned a corner, Lu Tianxing saw Yue Tingting’s parents sitting at the door of the ICU, their faces etched with exhaustion and worry.

Upon hearing the voice, Yue Tingting’s father looked up and shook his head, ”We don’t know what happened either. The doctors said she needs to be observed in the ICU. Tianxing, Tingting is resting in the ward; you can go in to see her if you want. Oh, and who is this...?”

Yue Tingting’s father’s gaze fell on Bai Zhiqing.

”Uncle, this is Bai Zhiqing, the chairman of our company. She came over when she heard that Tingting was ill. Uncle, aunt, don’t worry too much. The doctors have only said it’s for observation; perhaps Tingting is fine, and it’s just a misdiagnosis by these doctors.”

Lu Tianxing put on a reassuring smile, glanced at Bai Zhiqing, and said, ”Wife, I’ll go in to check on Tingting. Could you stay here and keep uncle and aunt company?”

”Okay!”

Bai Zhiqing nodded softly, ”I will wait for you out here.”

Lu Tianxing didn’t say anything more and pushed open the door of the ward.

The entire room was stark white, filled with the pungent scent of disinfectant, which was very uncomfortable. Yue Tingting lay on the hospital bed staring blankly at the ceiling, not even noticing Lu Tianxing’s entrance. Her face was terrifyingly pale, like a sheet of white paper, devoid of any hint of blood. Her lips had lost their color, replaced by a chilling whiteness, and a faint coldness seemed to emanate from her body.

”Tingting, Brother Lu is here to see you.”

Seeing Yue Tingting’s condition, Lu Tianxing’s face showed a hint of heartache. What kind of illness could torture such a lively and cheerful girl into this state of despondency?

”Brother Lu, you’re here.”

At the sound of Lu Tianxing’s voice, Yue Tingting trembled slightly, her eyes fluttering slightly, and she forced out a bleak smile: ”Brother Lu, do I look very ugly now?”

”No, Tingting, you are not ugly at all. You are always the prettiest, most adorable, and best-behaved little girl in my heart,” Lu Tianxing reassured her as he sat by her bedside, tenderly tidying her somewhat disheveled hair and asked gently, ”Tingting, can you tell Brother Lu what caused you to suddenly fall ill? Can you tell me the reason?”
