Chapter 764: Yang Yuelan Secretly Meeting With First Madam Lu
Zi Yi got the driver to pull over.
After the car came to a stop, she took out her phone and gave Shadow a command. “Follow Yang Yuelan.”
Yang Yuelan grabbed her handbag and quickly entered a coffee shop. After she went in and the staff member asked her how many seats she would be needing, she stopped looking around and said, “I have an appointment with someone. Her surname is Chu.”
The staff member immediately understood. “I understand. Madam, please follow me.”
Yang Yuelan followed the staff member to a booth.
Inside the booth sat a woman wearing sunglasses and a mask. Yang Yuelan said to the staff member, “Bring me a cup of white coffee, and that will be all.”
“Yes, please wait for a little while.”
Yang Yuelan walked over and sat opposite the woman. After the staff member left, she still looked around anxiously. After confirming that no one was paying any attention, she called out, “Mother.”
The First Madam nodded but did not immediately speak. After the staff member served the coffee, she took off her sunglasses and mask.
Yang Yuelan was startled by her present appearance.
The First Madam’s eyes were swollen like walnuts and her previously well-maintained face had aged considerably.
“Mother, what happened to you?”
The First Madam started wiping her tears upon hearing the question. “I wasn’t able to eat or sleep well in the countryside. Even when I come to the city, I have to be on guard. How could I possibly be in a good condition?”
Yang Yuelan took her hand and said, “Mother, just wait a little longer. I will find a way to get Grandfather to call you back.”
The First Madam grabbed Yang Yuelan’s hand and said, “Yuelan, you must think of something quickly. I don’t want to stay in the countryside for another day longer.”
Having said that, she asked, “Is Zhiheng managing the company well?”
Yang Yuelan did not dare to tell her what happened yesterday, so she nodded.
The First Madam was relieved. She took out a large bag of medicinal ingredients and said, “I found a miracle doctor who is very good at treating that type of illness. She prescribed this medicine. Take this back and prepare it for Zhiheng to drink. If he drinks it for some time, the both of you will definitely have children.”
Yang Yuelan quickly took the medicine and said, “Mother, don’t worry. I will prepare the medicine according to your instructions.”
The First Madam was confident in how Yang Yuelan did things, but she still reminded her. “Don’t let your father know of this or he will get angry.”
“Mother, I know.”
The First Madam breathed a sigh of relief. She thought of something and asked, “I heard that the two of them returned. Did they visit Grandfather these days?”
“Only Second Brother returned to the main residence. Grandfather doesn’t like Zi Yi and so how could they possibly let her return?”
The First Madam was relieved and she gave her a few reminders. As she was afraid that the people keeping a watch on her had discovered that she had returned to the capital, she hastily said, “In that case, I’ll go back first. You must inform me when anything happens at home at the very first instance.”
“I understand, Mother.”
Mrs. Lu took her bag and left.
Yang Yuelan also left the coffee shop with the medicine in her hand.
Zi Yi put away her phone and realized that there was still a traffic jam. Just as she was about to get the driver to drive again, two foreigners came over from the side.
The two of them were clearly bodyguards.
They came over to Zi Yi’s side and one of them knocked on the car window.
The bodyguard sitting in the co-pilot seat looked at Zi Yi from the rearview mirror and waited for her to speak.
Zi Yi nodded her head.
The bodyguard rolled down the window and the man outside said, “My employer would like to invite Miss Zi to have a cup of coffee.”
He then passed a name card to the bodyguard inside the car. “My employer said that you will know who he is after you see his name card.”
The bodyguard tilted his head slightly towards Zi Yi.
Zi Yi stretched out her hand and the bodyguard passed the name card to Zi Yi.
There were a few English letters printed on the name card.
[A.E.M]
Zi Yi ran her hands across the three letters and suddenly thought of an offer she received in her mailbox. She immediately guessed who it was and said coldly, “Tell Dr. Ellis that my Mother is waiting for me at home to have dinner. I won’t be joining him for coffee.”
She then said to the driver, “Drive.”
The bodyguard rolled up the window and the traffic jam was finally eased. Their car was then able to drive out.
…
The two bodyguards only reacted when the car had driven away.
They then walked back to a private room in one of the coffee shops.
A middle-aged man was sitting in the private room. He was exuding a scholarly aura and at the same time, he seemed to possess wisdom and acted as though everything was under his control.
One of the bodyguards came up to him and said respectfully, “Dr. Ellis. Miss Zi said she will be going home to have dinner and she will not be coming for coffee.”
There was a steaming cup of black coffee placed in front of him. Dr. Ellis seemed to have guessed this result before hearing what the bodyguard reported. He raised the cup of coffee and took a sip before he said, “Go and inquire about the recent whereabouts of the School of Technology’s Dean. I’ll pay him a visit tomorrow.”
“Yes.”
…
Zi Yi did a check on this Dr. Ellis after the car drove out.
There was very limited information about this guy online and it was obvious that his information was confidential.
However, this did not pose a difficult problem for Zi Yi. Soon, she hacked into the confidential archives of Country A and found this person.
On his file, it was written: Ellis, first-class doctor of Nuclear Fusion Engineering Mechanics. Researcher of M Institute for Nuclear Weapons in Country A.
After she finished reading his file, Zi Yi put away her phone.
On the other side.
Mrs. Lu had arranged two blind dates for Lu Yunxiao today.
The first blind date was in a downtown cafe.
His blind date was a lady of a scholarly family. She was introduced by Zi Yi’s Eldest Aunt.
This young lady was clearly a little shy. She did not even dare to look at Lu Yunxiao after taking a seat.
Lu Yunxiao was also the type of person who could maintain silence if the other party did not talk.
As a result, both of them had sat like that for half an hour.
The moment the 30 minutes was up, Lu Yunxiao stood up and said, “We are not suitable.”
As soon as Zhang Yue heard him, she suddenly looked up. She originally wanted to say something but Lu Yunxiao’s sharp gaze had stumped her. She ended up lowering her head and said in a soft voice, “We haven’t even introduced ourselves so how do you know if we are not suitable?”
Lu Yunxiao sat down again and introduced himself with a straight face. “Lu Yunxiao, 25-years-old. Has a special nature of work. Away all year round and there’s a chance of not coming back forever after leaving.”
“Ugh…” Zhang Yue looked at him, as she was startled by his words.
Lu Yunxiao looked at her expressionlessly and asked, “Do you think you can accept it?”
Zhang Yue subconsciously shook her head and only realized that her action was inappropriate in the next second. She blushed and wanted to explain herself, but was sent retreating due to Lu Yunxiao’s expressionless face.
However, since it was a blind date, as a woman, she definitely would not want to be the side that gets walked out on. Therefore, she stood up, grabbed her bag, and said, “I think that we’re not suitable. Goodbye.”
She took her leave first after having said that.
However, what he did not expect was that the second blind date was the daughter of his father’s subordinate. She had simply idolized him the moment she saw him.
“I’ve heard plenty of legends about you from my Father. You’re basically a hero in my heart.”
Lu Yunxiao looked at her expressionlessly.
