Chapter 61.2 : Sending Her to the Hospital Was Only the First Step—What Comes Next Is the Real Main Event (Part 2)
He turned his head and saw Lu Tianren standing there with a blank expression.
"Tianren, are you okay?"
"Huh?"
Ever since watching Tang Xuerong get taken away by the hospital staff, Lu Tianren had been standing there in a daze, as if he had been shocked stiff by what he'd just witnessed.
After all, both he and Lu Zhaozhao had always been well protected by Lu Rongsheng. They'd probably never had a chance to see something like a madwoman—and people capturing a madwoman—before!
"You look really tired. Are you sure you're fine?" Tang Qingmo lightly patted his shoulder.
"I'm fine, it's just… I'm a little shocked." Lu Tianren couldn't help covering his mouth with his palm, his face looking pale.
He had only been following Tang Qingmo for less than twelve hours, yet he'd already seen so many things that shattered his worldview and delivered intense shocks. His chest felt uncomfortably tight.
Hearing this, Tang Qingmo simply broke into a bright smile and said,
"Then go back and get some good rest. You'll see even more in the future!"
Lu Tianren: …Huh?
It was already close to 3:30 a.m. The Tang family members were utterly exhausted after the turmoil caused by Tang Xuerong.
Even with only a few hours left until dawn, they still wanted to go home and get some sleep.
"Young Master Lu, if you don't mind, please come back with us," Tang Jianren said. Since he had forgotten about Tang Qingmo when they came over, he'd also forgotten about Lu Tianren along with him.
Now, however, he was being especially attentive.
Lu Tianren replied calmly, "Of course I'd like to hitch a ride in Patriarch Tang's car. But Patriarch Tang won't forget that Young Master Tang is coming back too, right?"
What he meant was that he was standing up for Tang Qingmo, who had just been completely ignored by the whole family.
"Of course! Of course I won't forget!" Tang Jianren laughed awkwardly, then immediately looked at Tang Qingmo in a flattering manner.
"Qingmo, you and Young Master Lu get in the car. I'll drive you back."
Tang Qingmo raised a brow. "Oh? I didn't expect Patriarch Tang to personally send me home—it's quite rare. Fine, I'll accept."
After saying that, he didn't even spare Tang Jianren and the others a glance, and walked into the Tang family's car together with Lu Tianren.
"..."
After that, aside from Tang Aili—who needed to report the situation to the hospital director—and Bai Hualian—who stayed behind worried about Tang Feifei's injuries—the rest chose to return to the Tang residence.
Once back at the villa, Tang Qingmo told Lu Tianren to go rest in the neighboring room.
Lu Tianren didn't refuse. The scene of Tang Xuerong screaming hysterically and then being taken away was still vivid in his mind…
And he knew very clearly who had caused all of this—Tang Qingmo.
Returning to the room the Tang family had prepared for him, Lu Tianren immediately took out his phone and sent a message to Lu Rongsheng about what had just happened…
The next morning.
With Auntie Wang back at work today, the Tang family could finally enjoy a hearty breakfast.
However, having only Auntie Wang as the sole servant was obviously not enough. This made Tang Jianren and Tang Ruoling decide to recruit new servants and a housekeeper as soon as possible.
Naturally, Tang Jianren also wanted Lu Tianren to sit at the table and eat with them, but he was refused.
"I'm a bodyguard. I can't eat together with my employer."
Seeing how serious Lu Tianren was, Tang Jianren didn't insist further.
Tang Qingmo ignored them all. After finishing the meat buns Auntie Wang had prepared, he left for school.
Lu Tianren was now serving as his driver, and the car was also provided by the Lu family. There was no need for him to leave together with the other Tang family members, which conveniently spared him from sharing the same space with them!
After dropping Tang Qingmo off at school, Lu Tianren was free to go about his own business.
"Young Master Tang, I'll head back to the association for a bit. If anything comes up, feel free to contact me."
"Alright. After school, I'll go to this address. You'd better prepare yourself mentally." Tang Qingmo handed Lu Tianren a small note.
"This is…?"
Lu Tianren took the note. When he saw that it was the address of a psychiatric hospital, his heart jolted in shock!
