Don't meet me in your next life.

Lin Lubai and Xiao Zhao arrived in Jizhou and drove directly to that piece of land.

The land in Jizhou is located halfway up a mountain, a geomantically auspicious site. Nestled against the mountains and beside the water, it is particularly suitable for building a cemetery. With a main mountain, a lesser ancestral mountain, a back mountain, and a protective mountain, it is an excellent geomantically auspicious place, a rare find. Moreover, Lin Lubai has already acquired a considerable amount of land nearby, which will give them the confidence to buy an entire city when development begins next year.

This land is intended for the construction of a cemetery. In the future, wealthy people from all over Jizhou, and even many other places, will try to acquire a prime piece of land here. This land was chosen by Lin Lubai's maternal grandfather. He even had someone select auspicious burial sites, one for Lin Lubai's maternal grandmother and the other for Lin Lubai's mother.

Not many people knew about this land at the time, but he got there first and bought it as soon as he discovered it. He also bought up the surrounding area, intending to provide a one-stop service. And once development began two years later, he would be the biggest winner.

He had gone to great lengths to acquire it, originally planning to start construction next year when his cash flow was better. Who knew this was also part of the Lu family's plan to turn things around, and a very important one at that. Given that Anqi had specifically requested this land, Lin Lubai knew he couldn't wait any longer and had to start construction immediately.

When Anqi appeared, Lin Lubai was already prepared to start construction immediately. At that time, he had already arranged for people to choose a good day and the blueprints and plans had been finalized.

The date for starting work has been chosen, and it will be in three days. Everyone is busy making preparations.

"I hope everything goes well," Lin Lubai sighed.

On the way back to the hotel, it was already evening. Lin Lubai stared at his phone again and again, but still did not receive a call or message from Xiang Yiyi.

The signal was bad at the construction site, and Lin Lubai thought it was due to a delay in communication. But even after leaving the city, he still hadn't seen any missed calls or messages from Xiang Yiyi, and he was very disappointed.

"How about we call Madam?" Xiao Zhao said, looking at Lin Lubai.

"I'm not a simp. I sent her a message this morning and she hasn't replied yet. She's just a woman. I'll find someone else later," Lin Lubai said defiantly.

Xiao Zhao didn't dare to respond. His boss hadn't been with a woman for eight years, and he was too afraid to say something like that.

Lin Lubai stared angrily at his phone. This woman really didn't care about him, but they were already married, and he didn't want to let go.

He looked outside angrily. He wanted to tell Yi Yi, but he couldn't compromise.

It was already 7 o'clock when they got back to the hotel. Lin Lubai immediately had Xiao Zhao connect to the conference room and convene a management meeting.

Lin Lubai communicated the situation here with the management, assigned a lot of work to his subordinates, and also disciplined quite a few people.

The people below all had long faces; their boss was clearly looking for trouble today.

The vice president secretly texted Xiao Zhao: "Is today not going well for the boss? He's still yelling at us at this hour."

"That's true to some extent." Xiao Zhao didn't dare say that their boss had been set on fire by his wife.

"Please help us quickly, my wife and children are waiting for me at home." - Vice President.

Xiao Zhao watched from the side and secretly groaned. He checked the time; it was already 9 o'clock, and his boss was still working "desperately." He had to remind him, "Boss, it's 9 o'clock."

Finally, Lin Lubai checked the time and announced the meeting was adjourned, saying it would continue tomorrow.

The employees at the other end of the conference room were complaining bitterly.

After the meeting ended, Lin Lubai stared at his phone again and found that there was still no message from Yi Yi. He felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

"Mr. Lin, should we call and see if Madam is awake yet?" Xiao Zhao suggested again.

"No, let's discuss tomorrow's arrangements," Lin Lubai said to Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao was in despair and prayed that his boss would call him to save him.

Meanwhile, outside the emergency room, Xiang Yi and Xiao Qing anxiously waited for their grandmother's surgery to end.

Xiang Yi was woken up by a phone call. She had been sleeping until the afternoon when she received a call from her neighbor saying that her grandmother had fallen in the shop and had been rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.

Xiang Yi, who was still asleep, immediately got up and rushed to the hospital.

She glanced at Lin Lubai's message but didn't pay it any mind; she was going to the hospital.

Grandma was taken to the emergency room and hadn't come out after 4 hours. Xiang Yi was crying anxiously at the door, and her best friend Xiao Qing came over to keep her company after get off work.

Xiang Yi's phone rang, but she was preoccupied with her grandmother and didn't want to talk, so Xiao Qing answered it for her.

"Yi Yi, did my brother make things difficult for you?" Lu Sichen called Xiang Yi Yi using his new number.

"Sorry, she's not in the mood to answer the phone right now. I'm her best friend, Xiao Qing." Xiao Qing answered the phone for Xiang Yi.

"Xiao Qing, what's wrong with Yi Yi? I'm Lu Sichen." Lu Sichen became anxious.

"What's wrong? You scumbag, how dare you call her?" Xiao Qing scolded.

"Xiao Qing, it's all in the past, hang up now." Xiang Yi guessed it was Lu Sichen calling.

"Where are you?" Lu Sichen noticed something was off about Xiang Yiyi's voice.

"Grandma Yi is in the hospital, undergoing emergency treatment," Xiao Qing replied.

"Where is it? Send me the address and I'll be right there," Lu Sichen said anxiously.

Xiao Qing glanced at Xiang Yiyi, but didn't hear her speak, so she sent the address to Lu Sichen.

Lu Sichen drove to the hospital at high speed.

When he arrived at the entrance of the hospital's emergency room and saw Xiang Yiyi with red eyes, his nose tingled with emotion.

"How is Grandma?" Lu Sichen asked.

"They're still in the emergency room. It's been five hours, and they're still not out," Xiao Qing answered for Xiang Yi.

"Yi Yi, don't worry, Grandma will be fine." Lu Sichen sat down next to Xiang Yi Yi and put his arm around her, letting her lean on his shoulder.

Xiang Yi didn't refuse or say anything; tears just streamed down her face.

Lu Sichen quickly wiped away her tears. She was in pain, and he was in even more pain. He understood her; she was most afraid of parting.

Six hours later, the door to the emergency room finally opened, and Grandma was saved.

"The patient's family, the patient has been rescued, but their condition still needs to be observed. The biggest concern is postoperative infection. The patient will need to stay in the ICU for a while, and only one person can visit each day," the doctor explained to Xiang Yi.

"Okay, thank you, doctor." After saying that, Xiang Yi fainted.

The tension that had been building all afternoon finally eased at this moment.

Another flurry of activity ensued, with Lu Sichen and Xiao Qing frantically trying to keep up.

Lu Sichen even carried her up and down to perform the examination, but when the final examination results came out, he was stunned on the spot.

The doctor told them that Xiang Yi was pregnant and that she fainted because of low blood sugar. The doctor prescribed her intravenous nutrition and also told her that pregnant women should not get too excited and to remember to eat on time.

When Xiang Yi woke up and saw the blood test report, her heart was in turmoil. Just last night, he had said he would let go.
