Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Li Mingxi nodded, ”I’ve heard about it.”

”Xiao Lang must have told you. Well, Xiao Lang goes to the restaurant almost every day, but he hasn’t gone for a few days. I called him, and he said he couldn’t go for a while because of some issues. But then I suddenly heard today that he seems to have had a car accident. You’re friends with him and used to be neighbors. I’m just asking if it’s true that Xiao Lang had a car accident. Where is he now?”

Wen Ning looked at her eager and anxious. Li Mingxi felt that it would be too inconsiderate not to speak.

She’s just concerned about Xiao Lang; there’s no need to be so petty.

”Xiao Lang is at home. I’ve seen him; his injuries aren’t severe,” Li Mingxi said.

Wen Ning let out a sigh of relief, then turned to Wen Madam and said, ”Mom, you can go home yourself later. I’d like to go see Xiao Lang.”

Wen Madam understood her feelings and was quite fond of Xiao Lang too.

”Alright, go. Remember to buy some things to visit him.”

”Hmm, I know.”

Li Mingxi lowered her head and continued writing the prescription. Once finished, she handed it to Wen Madam, letting her go directly to pick up the medicine.

Wen Madam and the others left, and Li Mingxi sighed, returning to her office to continue working.

Just after working for a while, she couldn’t help but wonder whether Wen Ning went to find Xiao Lang.

Oh right, some of her things were left at Xiao Lang’s place and can’t let Wen Ning see them.

Li Mingxi took out her phone and quickly called Xiao Lang.

Xiao Lang was quite happy to receive her call.

”About to get off work?” He asked with a smile, ”I’m already cooking, ensuring you can eat as soon as you’re back.”

Li Mingxi hesitated, ”Just now, Wen Ning came to see me with Madam Wen for a medical visit.”

”Hmm, and then?”

”Wen Ning asked about you. She knows about your car accident and plans to visit you shortly... You know, our current relationship...”

Xiao Lang calmly said, ”Alright, I know what to do. Anything else?”

”No, that’s it... just that I might finish work a bit later today.”

”Alright, then I’ll hang up now.”

Xiao Lang hung up, and as Li Mingxi listened to the dial tone, she felt very guilty and uncomfortable.

She always felt sorry for Xiao Lang.

He’s sincerely devoted to her, but she hides their relationship, fearing others might find out.

Doing this to him is just too unfair.

But if she doesn’t do this, what else can she do?

Li Mingxi irritably rubbed her head, burying herself in work to numb herself.

Li Mingxi worried Wen Ning might still be at Xiao Lang’s place, so she dared not leave work early to go back.

The sky grew darker and darker; maybe Wen Ning had already left.

Only then did Li Mingxi leave work and drive back.

She cautiously opened Xiao Lang’s apartment door, finding the room in complete darkness with nobody around.

Li Mingxi walked inside, turned on the lights, changed shoes, and went to look for Xiao Lang.

No one in the bedroom, no one in the study, no one anywhere.

Xiao Lang must have gone out.

Li Mingxi went to the kitchen, seeing a note stuck on the fridge.

[I’ve prepared the meals; you can heat them up and eat. You don’t have to wait for me to come back for dinner.]

Li Mingxi’s heart felt bitter.

”Xiao Lang, please don’t be too good to me, or else I’ll feel even worse...”

Li Mingxi took a deep breath, opened the fridge, took out the prepared meals, and used the microwave to heat them, then went to the dining room to eat.

After eating, she tidied up the dishes and went to wash them.
