Chapter 19

“Don’t go near the kitchen anymore, understand?”

At this point, Jiang Yining didn’t refuse.

She nodded like she was pounding garlic.

However, she still couldn’t suppress her worry.

She pulled him around and found that his clothes were indeed burned.

The self-blame in her heart immediately deepened.

Lu Zhi didn’t take it to heart at all, but Jiang Yining couldn’t ignore it.

She didn’t like owing others favors, especially strangers.

“Just a simple bandage. It’ll be quick.”

She insisted.

Lu Zhi frowned.

Now that he had come back to his senses, he suddenly felt a little disgusted by her intimate contact.

“I’ll call the doctor over.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

His voice was cold and distant.

“I’m a doctor. Why would you call someone else?”

Jiang Yining dragged him to the sofa in the living room.

Then, she took out the first aid kit and skillfully applied the ointment to the injured area on his back.

The warm light reflected on her black hair, and it made her eyes glow a little. There was an inexplicable calming power.

Lu Zhi turned his cold face away and his heart suddenly beat faster.

A few minutes later, Jiang Yining finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“Alright, be careful these few days. Don’t let your wound come into contact with water.”

After she said that, she wanted to help him put on his clothes. Lu Zhi looked at the pair of soft and fair hands swaying in front of him. He suddenly snatched the clothes from her hands and put them on.

“Long-winded.”

After saying this coldly, he turned around and entered the study.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

“Sir, Young Master Shen is here.”

The servant’s voice was respectful.

Young Master Shen was dressed in a silver tracksuit. He had a casual look on his face. As soon as he entered the office, he looked at the man at the desk and said teasingly.

“I helped you investigate Queen’s whereabouts. How about it? What do you want to exchange with me?”

Queen, a genius hacker.

It was said that as long as one could afford the price, there was nothing she could not do in this world.

Shen Ximo knew that Lu Zhi had spent a lot of effort looking for Queen because he wanted to investigate Beicheng’s whereabouts.

“What do you want?”

Lu Zhi crossed his legs and leaned against the chair behind him. His slender fingers tapped on the table.

In an instant, the pressure in the entire study dropped a little.

Shen Ximo swallowed hard.

“Don’t, I’m just joking with you. Your business is my business.”

He smiled obsequiously and then said seriously.

“I received news that Queen accepted a job from the hacker’s mission distribution website. The employer has already paid her.”

Queen was very particular about credibility when doing business.

As long as she decided to take the order, she would definitely fulfill it.

If they waited for her, they would definitely be able to find her.

“Time and place.”

“King Bar. She’ll start her operation at 8 PM on Monday night, but we can’t find out the exact details of the operation.”

“Got it. Thank you.”

“Why are you being so polite with me?”

As Shen Ximo spoke, he suddenly thought of something and walked up to him. He smiled meaningfully and said.

“By the way, I heard from outside that you’ve been hiding a little lover recently. You had even fallen out with your family because of her?”

He clicked his tongue and sighed.

“How strange. You remained single for almost 30 years. Why did you suddenly bloom like a tree of iron? How beautiful must that woman be?”

“Shut up if you don’t want to be thrown out.”

Lu Zhi’s sharp gaze suddenly swept over.

Shen Ximo suddenly jumped up as if he had been pricked by a needle.

“Then I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After saying that, he ran away like a wisp of smoke.

It didn’t matter. No matter how he tried to hide his lover, there would be a chance to meet her.

There was no hurry!

Shen Ximo really didn’t expect that they would meet so soon.

It was quite unexpected.
