After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1677: Chapter 1681: My Zirui

”Send a few more people to pick him up,” said Leng Lin.

Luo Ke’s visit to the hospital this time is likely to be an attempt to kill Seo Fei to silence her. Given his current deranged state, who can guarantee what he might do? To be on the safe side, we must be extra cautious in everything.

Knowing Leng Lin was worried about Leng Zimo being in danger, Luo Xiaoqian nodded slightly, ”Cheang Xiao, Xiao Jie, you guys should head to the airport now.”

”Okay!” The two agreed in unison and left the Leng Family to head to the airport.

...

...

Hong Kong.

In the hotel, Xu Xia finally woke up from her sleep.

She hadn’t slept a wink the entire previous night; after returning to the hotel, she was utterly exhausted. She only intended to rest for a while, but she fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

Yawning, Xu Xia reached for the phone by her bedside. The time showed 5:20 PM.

She had slept that long?!

Xu Xia raised her hand to rub her forehead, naturally dialing Leng Zirui’s number, intending to call him. Just as the call went through, she quickly hung up.

She was so tired; that guy was injured and might be resting too. Better not disturb him.

”Miss Xu, you’re awake. Would you like some water?”

A female voice suddenly came from beside her.

Startled, Xu Xia turned around hastily.

From the sofa beside the bed, a tall, slender woman smiled at her, ”Don’t be nervous. We’ve met before. I’m Chu Fan, I used to be Miss Luo’s secretary. Remember?”

”Oh, it’s you!” Xu Xia recognized her and finally relaxed, sitting up straight, ”What are you doing in my room?”

”General Leng sent me to protect you. For the next few days, I’ll be your temporary assistant,” Chu Fan replied with a smile.

With Xiao Gao taking leave due to matters back home and Lan Zi hospitalized due to injuries, Leng Zimo originally planned to bring an assistant for Xu Xia from Beijing. Considering her safety, Leng Zirui discussed with him, appointing Chu Fan as Xu Xia’s temporary assistant.

”Would you like some water?” Chu Fan opened the mini-fridge, ”Water or juice?”

”Um... I’ll have room temperature water,” Xu Xia smiled awkwardly, ”Cold water makes my throat tense, it’s to protect my voice.”

”Oh, sorry, I didn’t know.” Chu Fan turned and walked over, taking a bottle of room temperature mineral water and handing it to her.

Xu Xia took the water and drank a sip, ”How is Leng Zirui?”

”I came directly from the airport to see you and haven’t been to the hospital yet,” Chu Fan slightly lifted the corners of her mouth, ”If you’re worried about him, I could call Shaochuan to ask.”

”Thank you,” Xu Xia said politely.

Chu Fan took out her phone and dialed Seo Shaochuan’s number, inquiring about Leng Zirui’s condition. After saying just a couple of sentences, Chu Fan handed the phone to Xu Xia, ”Better if you ask yourself.”

Xu Xia took the phone, ”Shaochuan, it’s Xu Xia. How’s that guy?”

”’That guy’? Is that how you refer to me?!” On the other end, it was clearly Leng Zirui’s voice.

Xu Xia pursed her lips, ”Otherwise, should I call you General Leng?”

”You could say ’my Zirui’, or ’my man’, ’my Young Master Leng’, ’my Lord Leng’, all are more domineering and intimate...”

”Get lost!”

This jerk, can’t he speak properly?!
