Chapter 1724: Chapter 1724: I Can’t Stand Them
Luo Qiao finished speaking and turned to continue with her work.
Lu Yichen stood there somewhat baffled; how did it escalate to this point?
He quickly walked over: “Qiaoqiao, I didn’t know you felt so strongly about this, but I already agreed to it this afternoon.”
The fire in Luo Qiao’s heart was hard to suppress: “What did you agree to, letting them stay at our home, or that I would arrange things for them?”
Lu Yichen looked at Luo Qiao’s cold face, sweat appearing on his forehead: “My comrade said they bought tickets for tomorrow, will arrive the night after tomorrow, come to the house first, and the morning after that, I’ll take them to the hospital.”
Luo Qiao said coldly: “Can you be sure they’ll only stay one night?”
Lu Yichen placed both hands on Luo Qiao’s shoulders: “Qiaoqiao, what’s wrong, why are you so angry?”
Luo Qiao replied indifferently: “I’m asking you now, is your comrade Guan Yushan, and is it his daughter Guan Yuyan coming to see the doctor?”
Lu Yichen nodded: “Yes.”
Luo Qiao let out a heavy breath: “Let me make it clear, I can’t help with this, and don’t even think about using my name at our hospital; you can arrange for them to go to another hospital.
Also, don’t bring them home, I find them annoying.”
In all these years, this was the first time Luo Qiao had lost her temper like this; he couldn’t quite figure out why Luo Qiao was angry.
He wouldn’t have known that back then, Guan Yuyan had come to see Luo Qiao once and talked a lot of ambiguous nonsense. At the time, Luo Qiao didn’t take it seriously and didn’t mention it to Lu Yichen, but Guan Yuyan’s demeanor was just revolting.
And as for Guan Yuyan’s father, judging by what Guan Yuyan said that day, he wanted Guan Yuyan to stay at Lu Yichen’s. What kind of thick skin leads to such thinking? Not considering whether it’s appropriate for a man and a woman to stay alone; who would believe there are no ulterior motives?
At the time, Guan Yuyan said that Luo Qiao had ruined her plans, and there was no way she would agree to someone like her staying in their home – absolutely revolting.
Luo Qiao didn’t want to play guessing games with Lu Yichen, so she directly recounted what Guan Yuyan had done and said back then.
Luo Qiao looked at Lu Yichen with a darkened expression: “Lu Yichen, you know what kind of person I am, I don’t want to wrong myself. If you feel it’s hard to refuse and don’t want to hurt your comrade fellowship, I’ll just make way.”
Thinking: But once I step aside, whether I’ll return to this home again is hard to say.
Lu Yichen hadn’t imagined that Guan Yuyan had done such things, wiping his face: “Why didn’t you tell me back then?”
Luo Qiao served the food onto a plate: “If this father and daughter hadn’t come knocking again, I wouldn’t have brought it up.”
Lu Yichen pulled her into an embrace: “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”
Luo Qiao patted his hand: “Let go, I’m still holding the food.”
Lu Yichen did loosen his hands, but he tilted his head and looked at Luo Qiao: “Just don’t be angry anymore, it’s not worth it, I feel distressed seeing you upset.”
Luo Qiao didn’t reply, continuing with her tasks.
Seeing that Luo Qiao was fine, Lu Yichen left the kitchen, contemplated for a long time, and then called Guan Yushan.
He then explained he had something come up and couldn’t pick them up, that he would send someone instead, and that he had arranged accommodation for them, telling them just to feel at home.
Regarding the hospital, it was pre-arranged, with someone to pick them up and assist with the registration, and he had also contacted the attending physician in advance, saying a few apologetic words before hanging up.
Guan Yushan was a bit puzzled, everything was fine during the call in the afternoon, yet just a few hours later, the attitude had changed. Although arrangements were made, being personally received was different from being sent a reception party.
When Guan Yuyan learned about it, she immediately snapped: “Do we even need to ask? It’s definitely because that spiteful woman said something, otherwise how could Brother Yichen’s attitude change so much?”
Guan Yushan frowned at his daughter: “Watch what you’re saying.”
Guan Yuyan was already in a bad mood from her illness and blurted: “If it weren’t for her, I might have married Brother Yichen, what’s wrong with what I said?”
