The call was hung up!

Qin Mobai had his call hung up by Lou Xi!

He intended to call Lou Xi tonight to say goodnight, but was told she went to find Xi Siwei!

Xi Siwei is a two-faced person. Qin Mobai had just told Lou Xi not to confront him head-on, why wouldn’t she listen?

The devices measuring Qin Mobai’s air pressure, blood pressure, and heartbeat were still connected, and the lines on the screen suddenly spiked.

The on-duty doctor, monitoring Qin Mobai’s condition, saw the data on the computer from his office and rushed to Qin Mobai’s ward, worried that something might happen to the patient.

Upon arrival, the doctor saw Qin Mobai filled with anger, making a call on his phone.

"Sinian, get to the Capital immediately and bring Lou Xi back to me!" Qin Mobai didn’t want Lou Xi to be strong or stand alone. It was too dangerous; he didn’t want the next person lying in bed to be Lou Xi.

"Cough cough cough..." Just after speaking, Qin Mobai began to cough.

He had just woken up and wasn’t fully recovered. How could he endure such a shock?

"Mo Bai, don’t worry, I’m heading to the Capital right now." Fu Sinian’s concern was palpable even through the phone, "Isn’t she just getting a stamp at the Land Bureau? Can’t you even trust her with that?"

"If it were just getting a stamp, that would be fine. Do you know what she’s really doing?"

"I don’t know."

"She went to find Xi Siwei!" Qin Mobai waved a hand, signaling the doctor not to come to treat him. The doctor had to leave the ward, observing Qin Mobai’s situation from the glass outside the ward.

"Xi Siwei also just went to the Capital. Why is he in such a hurry?"

"I don’t care. Get there immediately and bring Lou Xi back." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Bring sister-in-law back? You’re not even fully recovered, who will handle the big picture? Leave it all to Xi Siwei?"

This was a question Qin Mobai had considered too, "I will recover quickly. There’s an auction a week from now..."

"No way! A week is too rushed. Your body won’t recover in time, and appearing at the auction would be too dangerous!" Fu Sinian knew what Qin Mobai was planning and strongly opposed it.

But seeing Qin Mobai’s current state, how could he be stopped?

"I know my own body. You just focus on your tasks." Qin Mobai said in a deep voice, then he hung up on Fu Sinian and continued to call Lou Xi.

If he weren’t unable to get out of bed right then, he’d have gone to Lou Xi’s side immediately to bring her home for a good session of ideological education!

The phone kept ringing without an answer. Qin Mobai was worried, tense, and angry.

The doctor cautiously came in, "Mr. Qin, your emotions are too intense. Let’s give you a check-up..."

Qin Mobai nodded slightly, then sent a message to Lu Li, asking him to find Lou Xi and ensure her safety, at least for tonight!

...

Lou Xi hung up Qin Mobai’s call, not because she was disobeying him, but because she didn’t want Xi Siwei to spread those things around.

If that happened, Qin Mobai’s reputation would be ruined instantly.

Driven by protection and selfishness for her husband, Lou Xi absolutely didn’t want those things to be exposed.

"Knock knock knock..." As Lou Xi was thinking, the bathroom door suddenly resounded with knocks.

Didn’t she lock the bedroom door just now? How did Xi Siwei get in?

"If you don’t open the door, I’ll come in myself!" Xi Siwei’s calm voice came through the wooden door.
