Husband Indulges In Hidden Marriage

Chapter 3482: Could something have happened to him?

 “No, you are overthinking.”

Chao Lu smiled faintly, she didn’t think so.

 Xingchi is no longer the original Xingchi, he now has Pinellia ternata.

 And what about her?

　　　What does it matter?

"Yu Xi." He came to the living room, waved to Chao Lu, and called Yu Xi, "Come over for dinner soon."

“But dad’s not here yet.” Yu Xi put down the Rubik’s Cube and said a little discouraged.

 He suddenly jumped off the sofa, ran barefoot to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked downstairs eagerly.

At this height, when viewed from upstairs, the passing vehicles and pedestrians are as small as ants, and it is impossible to see who is who.

“Yu Xi, come here.” Chao Lu stood there, “Your father said he wouldn’t arrive until eight o’clock, so let’s eat first, okay?”

Yu Xi turned his head in despair, "Really?"

 “Mom won’t lie to you.”

 Finally, I coaxed Yu Xi to go to the restaurant for dinner, but he was in a bad mood and had a low appetite. After eating less than half a bowl of rice, he refused to eat.

 “Yuxi, where are you going?”

 “Yu Xi went to wait for dad.”

 After saying that, he ran out.

Chaolu put down her chopsticks, rested her forehead with one hand, and remained silent.

 The hour hand gradually moved towards eight o'clock, but Xingchi still didn't come.

Yu Xi was almost crying. He had been waiting for his father and didn't even eat much dinner. But now, eight o'clock came, and he didn't come.

 Lost, sad, sad.

Tears fell, crying so sadly.

 “Woo woo…”

"Yuxi, don't cry." Chaolu hugged him distressedly and coaxed him softly.

Yu Xi cried so hard that his little body twitched and choked with sobs, and his words became incoherent, "Mom...Dad, yes, do you not like Yu Xi anymore?"

"Nonsense." He tapped the tip of his nose with one hand and smiled at Chao Lu, "How could dad not like Yu Xi? He likes you very much, but he is too busy with work and can't see you on time. Yu Xi, You have to be considerate to dad, you know?"

Yu Xi nodded carelessly, so well-behaved that it made people feel distressed.

 Finally, Yu Xi was coaxed, and it was almost half past eight.

 It has been delayed by half an hour from the time he said.

She was about to call Xingchi to ask him how he was doing and whether he would come over tonight, when the landline phone in the apartment rang.

"Hello, who's there?" Chaolu picked up the phone.

A male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hello, Miss Chaolu. Young Master Xingchi is feeling unwell and I'm afraid he won't be able to pass. You and the young master don't have to wait any longer and go to bed early."

"What happened to Shangguan Xingchi?" Chao Lu's heart suddenly sank. Could something have happened to him?

 “Master Xingchi is unwell.”

Yu Xi heard Xingchi's name. He anxiously threw himself into Chaolu's arms and reached for the phone. "Mom, is it dad?"

"Yu Xi, don't move." Chao Lu held him down with one hand and asked, "Where is he now?"

 “Young Master Xingchi is in a villa in the suburbs.” The bodyguard told him truthfully.

Chaolu fell into deep thought, the servant's words echoing in her mind.

 Want to be more proactive?

Yu Xi in his arms seemed to be extremely anxious, his little face flushed, and he reached out anxiously to grab the phone.

Chao Lu hesitated for a moment, then said to the bodyguard at the other end: "Yu Xi wants to see him, I will take Yu Xi there in a moment."

 “Okay, Miss Chaolu.”

After hanging up the phone, Chao Lu asked Yu Xi to change out of his home clothes and left with him.

 At this moment, the time is close to nine o'clock.

 Suburban villa, brightly lit.
