Chapter 629: Upset

“I thought that Mr. Huang is a fine man.” Manager Sun seemed to not read the situation well. Knowing that Huang Chengjing was a great person, he could not help but jump to his defense. “Some of our relief supplies were obtained thanks to the help of Mr. Huang. The Hairun Group bought almost all the eggs of Nanjiang City when they came here.

Manager Sun did not know what he did wrong after getting the death stare from Lu Xingzhi. He shivered and quickly changed the topic of conversation. “Ms. Jiang, accounts of Shengqi Hospital dispatching their medical staff and Changkang Group sending in relief supplies to help the flood victims here at Rong County were published by my friend on the newspaper. I got to attend the interview together with the director of Shengqi Hospital. This will definitely improve the group’s reputation!”

“Great job!” praised Jiang Yao. “Please thank the journalist friend of yours on my behalf.”

“Nothing to worry about, after all, this is a win-win situation for us. He also receives financial bonuses for publishing news on the papers.” Manager Sun smiled and added. “The government just announced the results for the bid, we got it! I have to return after today’s distribution of relief supplies is done. I don’t think I will be here tomorrow as I need to complete all necessary paperwork and procedures.”

“Thank you so much.” For the past few days, Manager Sun commuted between Nanjiang City and Rong County multiple times. Each trip exposed him to danger as the road conditions were extremely bad. Jiang Yao thought he did an amazing job and intended to give him another bonus when she went back.

“It is my job! My daughter is recovering rapidly and I am so happy just thinking about it. I am willing to do anything for you, Ms. Jiang!” Manager Sun’s face lit up “She is getting better now. When I visited yesterday, we actually talked for a little while.”

While Manager Sun and Jiang Yao were engaged in a discussion, Lu Xingzhi waited patiently at the side. He immediately dragged Jiang Yao into the tent and had her sit down on the bed when Manager Sun finally left.

“What are you doing?” If not for the mass of people along the way, Jiang Yao would have escaped Lu Xingzhi’s grasp.

“Yaoyao, are you upset? Why?” Lu Xingzhi asked solemnly.

“Am I?” She rubbed her face and thought, ‘Was it that obvious?’

“Yes!” Lu Xingzhi answered firmly. Nothing escaped Lu Xingzhi, not even Jiang Yao’s minute change in her emotions.

“Don’t deny it, I know you are upset!” Lu Xingzhi interrupted Jiang Yao’s rebuttal attempt. “Tell me, why? Is it because I hit you yesterday?”

This was the only issue Lu Xingzhi could think of after racking his brain. “Darling, you need to be reasonable here. Yesterday’s matter is in the past now and I thought we were all good when we went to sleep. I am sorry for hitting you yesterday, it was my fault and I apologized.”

Lu Xingzhi scrunched up his handsome face and regretted not holding his anger in yesterday.

“That’s not it!” Jiang Yao finally said after seeing Lu Xingzhi’s insistence. “I wiped my face this morning with the towel you used last night!”

A quizzical look appeared on Lu Xingzhi’s face. That was it?

This was why she was upset the entire morning?
