Spring Branches

Chapter 66

After hearing this, the housekeeper seemed angry, so he hung up the phone without saying a word.

Tang Asi became even more anxious.

I called five or six times in a row, but no one answered.

Tang Asi looked at the opposite side of the building. The housekeeper stepped on Lu Yichuan's back with an evil smile. Lu Yichuan looked hideous and in pain.

Tang Asi continued to make the call.

The housekeeper was annoyed by the noise and picked up the phone.

He said: [I will not negotiate any more terms with you. You are not keeping your promise, Tang Asi.]

[What do you mean? ] Tang Asi frowned.

The butler laughed: [Our people have already found out that your people are lying in ambush nearby, so I will no longer carry out this transaction with you.]

【Don’t.】Tang Asi said: 【I can let them leave.】

The housekeeper said: [Take the money and follow my people.]

Finally, Tang Asi arrived at the floor where the butler was.

As soon as she went up, the housekeeper burst into laughter.

"Tang Asi, you said you don't love Lu Yichuan. I hate liars the most." The housekeeper looked embarrassed.

Seeing Lu Yichuan injured again, Tang Asi wanted to cry loudly, but she knew that now was not the time, so she endured it with difficulty.

She pretended to be calm, looked at the housekeeper seriously and said, "I really don't love him."

"You know that the only way out for you is death, but you still came here for him." The housekeeper sneered: "You want to die for Lu Yichuan, is this not love?"

After hearing this, Tang Asi laughed as if he had heard a huge joke, and said, "I came up here not for anyone in the world, but for Lu Yisi. After he left, I was in agony every day. I didn't want to live at all, and I just took this opportunity to go to heaven to find Lu Yisi."

"..."

The butler was stunned.

He never expected Tang Asi to explain it this way.

From the firmness and courage in her eyes when she mentioned Lu Yisi, the housekeeper believed that what she said was true.

The housekeeper smiled, and his eyes became moist at the same time, "Do you miss Lu Yisi too?"

Tang Asi nodded heavily: "I miss him more than anyone else."

"..."

After hearing this, the housekeeper looked at Lu Yichuan and laughed: "Did you hear that? This woman's heart is all about Lu Yisi. No matter how much you do, it's not even one ten-thousandth of what Lu Yisi does."

He was stabbed three times by the butler and was now only slightly conscious.

Lu Yichuang looked at Tang Asi with tears in his eyes.

Nothing in his life had ever made him so sad.

It was as if there were millions of tiny needles stabbing into his heart again and again, as if they would not stop until they pierced through it!

He couldn't hold on any longer.

Tang Asi hated this look the most. She looked up at the housekeeper and said, "If you let Lu Yichuan go, I'm willing to exchange my life for him."

The butler laughed: "Do you think your life is valuable?"

Tang Asi didn't say anything.

The housekeeper continued, "Tang Asi, in this world, only Lu Yisi treats you as a treasure. No one can compare to him."

After saying that, the butler lowered his head with a depressed look on his face, daydreaming about something.

Before they could react, the bodyguard and the butler fell to the ground, shot in the chest and blood gushing out.

……

Lu Yichuan woke up from the bed and found the room was pitch black. He couldn't see anything. But there was a strong smell of disinfectant in the room. He guessed that he was in the hospital.

With the faint white warm light coming in through the crack in the door, Lu Yichuang saw Tang Asi sleeping on the edge of the bed.

She seemed to have had a nightmare, her back was shaking and her brows were tightening and relaxing.

He kept staring at her, his mind full of what Tang Asi said in the building that day, saying that she missed Lu Yichuang.

"no, do not want……"

Tang Asi suddenly opened his eyes.

Seeing Lu Yichuan staring at her, Tang Asi couldn't help crying.

She said: "...I just had a nightmare. In the dream, we didn't save you, you...you..."

Tang Asi couldn't say the three words "you're dead". It felt like a huge stone was stuck in his throat and he couldn't speak.

Lu Yichuan reached out and touched Tang Asi's cheek, smiling softly: "It was just a nightmare, we both survived well."

When the sniper saw that the situation was right, he responded to Madam Lu's order and sprayed the three men with anesthetic eggs, which allowed them to escape so smoothly.

The butler and the two bodyguards were also sent to the police station. There was no need to appeal further, as the two bodyguards had been sentenced to life imprisonment, and the butler would have to serve three years in prison before he could be shot.

……

On the day of discharge from the hospital, Tang Asi gave Lu Yichuang a bouquet of yellow lilies.

She felt very sorry for him and her heart was filled with gratitude towards him.

Lu Yichuang liked this bouquet of flowers very much. After returning home, he found a vase to put it in and took good care of it every day.

Since the kidnapping, the feeling between Tang Asi and Lu Yichuan seemed to have returned to the time when they first met. They were full of courtesy to each other.

No matter who helps whom, "thank you" and "you're welcome" are the most common words heard.

On this day, Chen Chen and Chen Xiao came to visit the house to celebrate Lu Yichuan's recovery and the company's gradual resumption of normal operations. They brought yellow lilies with them.

Chen Xiao and Tang Asi were busy in the kitchen, while Lu Yichuang and Chen Chen were sitting on the sofa chatting.

Lu Yichuan glanced coldly at the yellow lilies placed in front of the TV cabinet and asked, "Why are there yellow lilies?"

Chen Chen replied nonchalantly, "Xiaoxiao asked Ah Si what kind of flowers to bring, and she said you like yellow lilies, so we bought them."

After hearing this, Lu Yichuan's face became even more embarrassed, and he said solemnly: "The person I hate the most is Huang Baili."

"......?" Chen Chen was confused.

Lu Yichuan then continued, "I don't want to see Huang Baili in my life."

He glared at Chen Chen again, "Please take your flowers with you when you go back. Thank you."

Their dinner was hot pot.

Tang Asi stood up and poured a full cup of Coke into each person's cup.

Lu Yichuan looked calm and said politely, "Thank you."

Tang Asi nodded and responded, "You're welcome."

"..." Chen Chen and Chen Xiao were stunned.

The meat in the hot pot is cooked.

Lu Yichuan put a piece of meat in Tang Asi's bowl, and Tang Asi nodded: "Thank you."

Tang Asi nodded and responded: "Thank you."

Chen Chen: "..."

Chen Xiao: “…”

After eating hot pot, the two men went to the kitchen and started cleaning up the battlefield.

Chen Chen asked Lu Yichuan: "What happened to you two? Why are you suddenly so polite?"

Chen Xiao in the living room also asked Tang Asi the same question.
