Chapter 227 An Unexpected Encounter

Xu Yan sent a message to Lu Xuan, telling him that she had already entered the hospital.

The doctor was examining all of Yun Chutong's physical indicators. The results showed that her symptoms of mania had improved a lot compared to before, and the possibility of recovery was quite high.

Lu Luochen said that he got it and asked the hospital to keep a close eye on her without any slack. The more critical the moment, the more vigilant they should be to avoid any accidents.

The doctor agreed.

Three days later, Wen Sining finished her work early and sent a message to Lu Xuan.

[Mr. Lu, are you available at six o'clock?]

After sending the message, she put her phone aside and sorted out the documents in her hand.

The phone on the table vibrated. Wen Sining took a look and was surprised that Lu Xuan replied so quickly.

[Yes.]

Wen Sining typed a few more words and sent them.

[Let's meet at Baiweizhai. I've booked a private room there. Is that okay?]

After sending it, she saw the words "typing..." and waited for his reply.

[Sure.]

Lu Xuan didn't really care about where to have the meal. What he cared about was whether he could see Wen Sining.

Just like that, the two of them made an appointment.

At two o'clock, they showed up in the private room.

Wen Sining had just parked her car and walked to the door when she heard someone calling her name from behind. She stopped in her tracks, turned around, and saw Lu Xuan.

"You just got here too."

The other person nodded. Lu Xuan was wearing long - sleeved clothes this time. The wound on his arm hadn't fully recovered yet, so he couldn't move it too much.

The two of them went in together. The private room wasn't very big, but it was quiet.

The waiter stood on one side of the table with a tablet, waiting for the two guests to order.

"Take a look and see what you'd like to eat. I'll treat you this time." Wen Sining said.

Lu Xuan wasn't being polite with her and ordered a few signature dishes of the restaurant.

Wen Sining added some more. The waiter verified the menu with them before leaving.

While waiting for the food, they started talking about work.

Lu Xuan took out a script from his bag and gave it to Wen Sining. The latter took it. After taking a look, she said in surprise, "Isn't this the one I saw in the hospital before?" She didn't expect Lu Xuan to give this to her. She was really interested in this script at that time.

"I could tell that you like it very much." Lu Xuan said.

Wen Sining nodded. While eating, the two of them talked about work.

The meal was very pleasant, and their cooperation was finalized.

Wen Sining and Lu Xuan walked out of the private room. As soon as they stepped out, she heard a familiar voice in the hall.

"Xiao Zhan." She called out and waved forward.

"Ms. Wen, I'll take my leave first." Lu Xuan said in a timely manner.

Wen Sining nodded and carefully told him to be careful on the way.

Xiao Zhan looked in her direction after hearing the voice. His eyes immediately lit up, and there was a surprised expression on his face. He really didn't expect to run into her in this place.

Wen Sining walked closer. She patted Xiao Zhan on the shoulder. "I really didn't expect to run into you here."

"I'm having a dinner with some friends today. They just left." Xiao Zhan explained.

Wen Sining let out an "oh".

"It's getting late. Come on, I'll drive you home." Xiao Zhan was also worried about her driving alone at night.

Wen Sining was just about to decline when she thought that the streetlights on the road near the Lu family mansion had been broken these days and it was pitch - black. After hesitating for a while, she agreed. She could just ask her assistant to drive her car away tomorrow.

Xiao Zhan smiled. "Let's go then." There was an indescribable joy in his tone.

The two of them walked out of the restaurant side by side. A little girl was holding a flower basket in one hand and a small bunch of about a dozen roses in the other. She looked up at them, and her childish voice rang out, "Big brother, would you like to buy a bunch of flowers for your girlfriend?"

Wen Sining didn't expect the little girl to say such a thing. She opened her mouth, about to explain their relationship.

But Xiao Zhan's voice came before her. "Sure. How much is this bunch of flowers?" He agreed because the little girl said Wen Sining was his girlfriend.

"Sixty yuan, big brother." The little girl showed a number with her hand.

Xiao Zhan opened his wallet, took out a 100 - yuan note directly, and gave it to her. "Keep the change. Go home early!"

The little girl was very happy. She handed over the flowers. "Thank you, big brother. Your girlfriend is very beautiful." After saying that, she walked forward with a beaming face.

"Here you are." Xiao Zhan handed the flowers to Wen Sining.

Although she didn't really want the flowers in her heart, out of politeness, she still took them. She bit her lip, and with a determination in her heart, she said to him, "Xiao Zhan, you don't really need to keep chasing after me. Get to know other girls more."

Xiao Zhan wasn't angry when he heard what she said. Instead, he gently changed the topic. "Wait for me here. I'll go to the garage to get the car."

Wen Sining watched his back as he left. She wanted to say something more, but in the end, she could only sigh helplessly.

After a while, a car stopped in front of her.

"Get in the car!" Xiao Zhan said.

Wen Sining opened the passenger - side door and got in. Xiao Zhan didn't start the car immediately. Instead, he took out something for Wen Sining.

"Barbecued pork buns." Wen Sining's eyes lit up. "When did you buy these?"

"I saw a vendor selling them on the way to get the car just now, so I bought a portion for you." Xiao Zhan would never tell her that he drove there specifically to buy them for her.

Wen Sining nodded. No wonder she had waited there for quite a while.

Xiao Zhan started the car and soon arrived at the Lu family mansion.

Wen Sining got out of the car with a bunch of flowers in her arms. She had already finished the barbecued pork buns.

Grandpa Xiao inside the house seemed to have heard the noise outside. He came out and saw his grandson, then looked at Wen Sining standing beside him. He immediately understood what was going on.

"Grandpa." Xiao Zhan called out.

Grandpa Xiao nodded. "Zhanzhan, you came back with Sining. Come in quickly. Lu Luochen hasn't come back yet."

"Let's go." Wen Sining said.

Only then did the two of them go in.

While walking, Grandpa Xiao made a suggestion. "It's getting late. Why don't you stay here tonight?"

Xiao Zhan didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Wen Sining beside him.

Noticing his gaze, Wen Sining said that she had no objection. After all, he had driven her back.

"Okay then." Xiao Zhan agreed.

"That's right."

"You can sleep in the guest bedroom tonight. I'll go up and tidy it up now." Wen Sining put the flowers aside and was about to go up when Lu Luochen walked out from inside.

"Okay." Xiao Zhan agreed.
