Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 37 That was when she hit me last night.

This was a private room, and it was just her and Lu Tingnian. She didn't care about her image and just stuffed food into her mouth.

Lu Tingnian: "..."

He handed her a glass of water and said, "Take it slow, be careful not to choke."

Qiao Luo was about to drink some water, so she didn't stand on ceremony and took the water. She had just taken a sip when the phone on the table rang. It was Fang Yan calling.

Qiao Luo quickly put down her water glass and was about to answer the phone when she suddenly remembered that Lu Tingnian was still watching.

She quickly said, "I'm going out to answer a phone call."

Immediately, he got up and went out.

Lu Tingnian stared at her hurried departure, shook his head helplessly, and then dialed a number, "Help me check someone."

Outside the private room, Qiao Luo found a quiet corner to answer the phone.

"Hey, Yan Yan, how's it going on your end?"

Hearing how anxious she was, Fang Yan quickly explained the situation to her.

In the morning, Yu Huili inquired about Gu Qiyan's company address and actually went there, but coincidentally, Gu Qiyan didn't go to work today, and Yu Huili came up empty-handed.

But given Yu Huili's personality, she couldn't wait for Gu Qiyan and went to his house instead. She happened to run into Gu's mother at home. Both of them had fiery tempers, and they started fighting after exchanging only a few words.

When Fang Yan arrived, the two were pulling each other's hair, fighting fiercely and evenly. If she hadn't arrived in time and pulled Yu Huili away, the two would probably be in the hospital by now.

Fang Yan spoke of this with some relief, "Luo Luo, you should really be glad you didn't marry Gu Qiyan. His mother is even worse than Aunt Yu."

Qiao Luo had already experienced this, which was one of the reasons why she resolutely broke up with Gu Qiyan back then.

"What about Aunt Yu? How is she?"

"She's fine, I've already taken her home."

Hearing Fang Yan say this, Qiao Luo finally felt relieved. Although she disliked Yu Huili and never treated her as family, she was still Qiao Yuanzhe's mother. Even for Qiao Yuanzhe's sake, she couldn't just ignore her.

"Thank you so much, Yan Yan. You've worked so hard today. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Okay, I'll remember this meal. However, there's something I'm not sure if I should tell you."

Fang Yan hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.

Qiao Luo quickly asked, "Tell me, is there anything else between us that we should or shouldn't say?"

Fang Yan hesitated for a moment before saying, "I saw Gu Qiyan today. He had bandages wrapped around his head, and it looked like he was injured."

Qiao Luo thought Fang Yan was going to tell her something, but it turned out to be about this.

She almost didn't tell Fang Yan that it was because she had hit him last night.

But considering that it would be difficult to explain clearly over the phone in just a few words, she didn't bring it up again.

After ending the call with Fang Yan, Qiao Luo returned to the private room. She saw that Lu Tingnian was just sitting there without eating anything, and asked in confusion, "Why aren't you eating?"

Lu Tingnian looked over and said, "I'll wait for you."

His tone was calm.

Qiao Luo was a little embarrassed.

"Um, sorry, I was on the phone for a while and the food got cold. I'll have them heat it up."

Just as she was about to get up to make arrangements, Lu Tingnian spoke up.

"No need, I'm already full. How about you?"

Qiao Luo: "..."

Are you full already?

She had just started to feel a little hungry.

But there was no time left, so Qiao Luo had to have the remaining dishes packed up.

She was carrying the packed lunchbox to pay the bill when Lu Tingnian told her that Han Jian had already paid.

Qiao Luo: "..."

They owe Han Jian an ever-growing debt that they can no longer repay.

At this moment, Han Jian, who was waiting in the car at the door, sneezed several times in a row, wondering who was talking about him.

Han Jian had just finished muttering to himself when he saw Lu Tingnian come out from inside, with Qiao Luo pushing him and carrying several takeout containers in her hand.
