Then, how could the approvals here be so easy to get?

At that time, they promised to approve the land for the Qin Family, but now they’ve said they can’t approve it because during geological surveys, they discovered artifacts from two thousand years ago on the land that Qin Family intended to use for a park.

To protect the artifacts, the land is now prohibited from any development, even non-commercial use is not allowed; everything must be excavated thoroughly first!

However, the Qin Family provided another explanation, claiming there are no artifacts beneath that land and that the few broken bowls were deliberately placed there by someone to prevent them from obtaining the plot!

But even when Lou Xi presented the evidence in front of them, they still refused to believe it.

They said they would consult their superiors and get back to Lou Xi on another day.

And so, she returned empty-handed.

Lou Xi came out dejectedly, the failure of the task coming much more swiftly than she anticipated.

Standing by the roadside, she felt she might truly be worthless, unable to even handle this matter properly.

Suddenly, a black business car stopped in front of Lou Xi, the passenger window rolled down, and she saw Ed, Ji Nanming’s driver and assistant, in the driver’s seat.

"Miss Lou, Young Master Ji asked me to pick you up."

After talking for more than an hour, Lou Xi was now exhausted and didn’t feel like hailing a cab, so she got into Ed’s car.

"Please take me to the hospital; I don’t want to go back to the hotel right now," Lou Xi said to Ed after getting in the car. She was also afraid of someone tailing her, which was why she obediently got in when Ed offered.

After all, Ed had a way of shaking off those who were following her.

The black business car drove straight through the Capital’s roads, occasionally paying attention to the situation behind, "Miss Lou, why didn’t you wait for our Young Master Ji and went to the Land Bureau alone? He told me he had arranged to meet with someone from the Land Bureau at two in the afternoon; I thought you were going together."

Lou Xi was already a bit muddled, and hearing Ed’s words only added to her confusion.

"What do you mean by that? He arranged a meeting with someone from the Land Bureau?"

"Yes, did Young Master Ji not tell you?"

No, he didn’t.

If he had mentioned it, then the current situation likely wouldn’t have happened!

"Did he say why he’s meeting with someone from the Land Bureau?" Hopefully, it’s not about the approval she’s trying to get...

"Whatever you’re doing in the Capital, Young Master Ji comes for the same purpose; what else could he be meeting the Land Bureau for?"

Lou Xi anxiously rubbed her temples, realizing she mistakenly blamed a good person. Ji Nanming had already considered her situation without her knowing, yet she criticized him.

Ed glanced at Lou Xi’s regretful expression in the rearview mirror and said reassuringly, "It’s okay, Young Master Ji has a good temper; he won’t get angry with you."

But, it’s no longer a matter of getting angry or not.

Lou Xi felt at that moment she had no ability to calmly analyze the issues, often staying on the surface level without diving in deeper to understand others.

Thus, she easily misunderstood Ji Nanming, thinking his sleeping late meant he didn’t care about Qin Mobai’s issues.

Half an hour later, Ed shook off the cars that had been trailing them, delivering Lou Xi to a private hospital.

After thanking Ed, Lou Xi went into the hospital.

Unlike in Nancheng, where she couldn’t see Qin Mobai daily, here in the Capital she could visit him whenever she had the chance, which felt like a blessing to her.

The hospital room was filled with the scent of antiseptic, yet Qin Mobai still showed no signs of improvement.
