The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind novel Chapter 430

Capítulo 430: Chapter 429: Peace Charm

Lu Qingyan said he would seek blessings, so he sought them.

The next day, he went to a temple relatively close to Beijing, known for its efficacious blessings, to pray for Jiang Nanshu’s safety.

The abbot of the temple gave him two peace charms, one for Jiang Nanshu and the other for their unborn child.

He went there and returned on the same day, stringing the two peace charms with a red cord, hanging them around Jiang Nanshu’s neck, “You’re not allowed to take them off.”

“What about you? Why didn’t you get one for yourself?” Jiang Nanshu asked him while looking at him.

Lu Qingyan smiled at Jiang Nanshu, “I forgot, I was only thinking about you and the child. I’m fine; I don’t need one.”

It was already afternoon by then, and he naturally went into the kitchen, “Are you hungry? I’ll make something for you to eat.”

Although there was a housekeeper at home, it was always Lu Qingyan who cooked whenever he was around.

As the housekeeper cleaned, she chatted with Jiang Nanshu, “Madam, out of all the families I’ve worked for, your husband is the best one. He’s the epitome of a good man. Madam, you live such a blissful life.”

The housekeeper was beaming at Jiang Nanshu, who replied with a gentle smile in her eyes, “I also think he’s very good.”

The housekeeper had a look of pleasant surprise on her face.

The housekeeper would go back to her own home at night, leaving only Jiang Nanshu and Lu Qingyan in the house.

He was working in the study, and Jiang Nanshu brought him a cup of milk.

He used English for the entire conference call, and upon seeing Jiang Nanshu enter, his stern expression instantly softened, “Why haven’t you gone to bed yet? It’s so late.”

It was already ten o’clock.

It was rare for Lu Qingyan to work until this time.

It seemed that he had a heavier workload recently; after all, he had been detained for more than a week, and Old Sir Lu had been supporting the company.

Father Lu, having perhaps tasted the benefits of neglect, had since been ignoring the company. Recently, nobody knew what he was up to or where he had gone.

“You haven’t slept either; I’m waiting for you.”

At her words, Lu Qingyan let out a silent chuckle, “You and I are different. Be good and go to sleep; I’ll be there once I’m done.”

He hadn’t muted the call, so the meeting attendees could hear Jiang Nanshu’s voice. They all fell silent, and to their surprise, Lu Qingyan didn’t avoid her, clearly aware in his heart.

This must be Mrs. Lu.

Lu Qingyan was extremely fond of his wife.

Every meeting had to end by ten so he could go to bed, under the pretense that his wife would be scared without him.

If it weren’t for the fact that there were serious issues today, Lu Qingyan would have gone to sleep earlier too.

Lu Qingyan stood up, told the people in the video to wait ten minutes, then led Jiang Nanshu to the bedroom, “You go to sleep first.”

He sat beside the bed, adjusting the room temperature, then tucked Jiang Nanshu in, leaned over to kiss her forehead, his peach blossom eyes soft with affection, “Goodnight, Nannan.”

Jiang Nanshu closed her eyes, and soon the sound of her light breathing filled the room. Lu Qingyan waited a few minutes before carefully getting up, turning on the night light, turning off the main light, and quietly closed the door as he left.

After he left, Jiang Nanshu opened her eyes in the dimly lit room.

If she hadn’t misheard just now, the topic Lu Qingyan discussed was about the Lu Family being investigated. He was warning the department heads to be cautious and also to keep an eye out for police movements in their overseas branches.

Jiang Nanshu sat up, tiptoeing barefoot quietly to Lu Qingyan’s study door, which wasn’t fully closed, so his voice carried, “Where has my father been recently?”
