The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 128 No Longer in Love

After the abortion procedure, as soon as the anesthesia wore off, Lu Siqi asked Hua Xu to discharge her from the hospital.

"Take me back to Beicheng." Her body was extremely weak at the moment, and even her voice was feeble. "You can fly a plane, and it only takes two hours to get me to Beicheng. Take me back."

Seeing that Hua Xu was still hesitant, she pleaded, "Hua Xu, please, please take me home. I want to go home."

Throughout her life, Lu Siqi has never asked anyone for anything.

In the past, no matter how miserable she was, she would never ask anyone for help.

But now, she has no other choice.

In order to erase that man's mark from her life as soon as possible, she was willing to give up all her self-respect.

Hua Xu understood her psychology and knew that she wanted to leave the hospital as soon as possible so that she could leave before Lin Chen arrived.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked to change her medical records before the surgery.

The goal was that even if Lin Chen came to the hospital to check, he would only be able to find out that she had only registered for general surgery.

"Delete my contact information after you return to Beicheng." Hua Xu stared intently at her, then laughed self-deprecatingly, "I know you don't want to see me again for the rest of your life."

Even if she were willing to see him again, he would never be able to forgive himself.

Because, like Lin Chen, he witnessed the entire process of her losing her child.

Witnessing the whole thing without intervening makes one no different from the culprit.

……

The helicopter landed on the helipad on the top floor of the hospital. Lu Siqi refused Hua Xu's help and walked into the elevator with a slight hunch.

Seeing that she was still so stubborn, or perhaps because he didn't want her to leave with hatred for Lin Chen, Hua Xu decided not to hide it from her as usual and told her the whole truth.

“Lin Chen isn’t what you think.” Seeing her pretending not to hear and lowering her head in disregard, Hua Xu continued, “Before Lin Chen decided to implement this plan, his first consideration was you and your Lu family.”

“You grew up in Beicheng, so you should know very well how Shang Junyan became the leader of the Special Economic Zone through the election process.”

"He rose to power by stepping on his own brother, so his foundation was never solid. In the years since he took office, he has faced multiple impeachments from the cabinet. The elders who sided with his brother Shang Junze back then were only outwardly compliant but inwardly resentful. Without the support of the Lin family and your Lu family, as well as Gu Shi's influence, Shang Junyan would have no chance against those elders in the Special Economic Zone."

"Shang Junyan is now in a precarious situation, besieged on all sides. Before Lin Chen decided to bomb the embassy and provoke trouble, he excluded you and Gu Shi from the process."

"His purpose in keeping this from you was to avoid implicating your Lu family and Gu Shi. Otherwise, why would he choose this time to have the Lin family announce the marriage with the Yu family?"

"He did all this to sever ties with you, because only by severing ties can he protect you. Otherwise, given the nature of those elders in the Special Administrative Region, they would definitely take advantage of his relationship with you to smear your Lu family and Gu Shi."

“Once the Lu family loses public trust, Gu Shi’s position will also be shaken, and Shang Junyan will also lose his power.”

"Shang Junyan's loss of power is tantamount to confirming that your Lu family and Gu Shi were also involved in the bombing of the embassy. When the countries exert pressure, your Lu family will inevitably be condemned by the Chinese people."

As Hua Xu finished speaking, the elevator arrived at the top-floor helipad.

Lu Siqi remained calm, as if she had known all along, and showed no reaction whatsoever; after she stepped out of the elevator, she turned back and said, "Please pass on a message to Lin Chen for me."

Thinking she had changed her mind, Hua Xu stepped forward and said, "Go ahead."

"Our Lu family isn't as cowardly as he thinks. We haven't caused trouble in recent years, but we're not afraid of trouble either. Since he's chosen to distance himself, let's all live our own lives peacefully from now on, and leave each other alone. Finally, I wish him success in his plan."

Unexpectedly, she still made this choice after hearing the truth. Hua Xu was puzzled, but still wanted to persuade Lin Chen to stay: "Under those circumstances, Lin Chen had no way to stop Hua Yin. My father, Hua Dongchen, was there, and the Lin family had just announced their marriage to Yu Nian. He could only signal me to step in first..."

“I understand what you’re saying.” Lu Siqi interrupted him and smiled at him with relief. “I left not because I hated him, but to allow him to do what he wanted to do. After all, a wild horse can only gallop freely on the grasslands if it has no ties.”

Seeing the light in her eyes and the smile on her face, Hua Xu felt a sudden, inexplicable pang in his heart.

Because he was too jealous of Lin Chen. It is said that the one who is favored is fearless, but it turns out that in this relationship between the woman in front of him and Lin Chen, Lin Chen is the one who is loved.

Because love can encompass everything, even knowing how crazy Lin Chen's plan was, she chose to accept and fulfill it without reservation.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to say these words so calmly after experiencing deception and even a miscarriage.

"Don't look at me like that." Lu Siqi's lips remained smiling. "I'm not being magnanimous, I just don't love him anymore."

Love and hate are inherently intertwined; love is the prerequisite for hate.

Only when you stop loving someone can you truly let go of all hatred.

……

Half an hour after the helicopter took off, just as it entered the airspace of Xiaomopo, an Airbus H225 Super Puma followed closely behind and began to accompany it.

Lu Siqi recognized the plane as the one Lin Chen had used in Jiang Hong.

Hua Xu also recognized it as Lin Chen's plane.

The pilot received a voice call from the other party, and after hearing that they were being asked to make an emergency landing, he could only seek the consent of his financial backer behind him and ask if they would agree.

Hua Xu looked at Lu Siqi.

"I won't make things difficult for you." Lu Siqi lowered her head, bit her finger until it bled, and rubbed her lips a few times with her bleeding fingertip. After rubbing, she pursed her lips slightly, and her originally pale lips immediately became much rosier. "That's enough, let the plane descend."

Feeling sorry for her strength, Hua Xu couldn't bear to see her continue to wrong herself like this. "I'll take you back to Beicheng first, and then I'll talk to Lin Chen later."

She slowly shook her head: "It's no use. Knowing him as I do, he will definitely follow me back to Beicheng. Once the plane reaches Beicheng's airspace, the Special Zone will be able to detect the frequency. Once they know he's on the plane, they will definitely take action."

Even at this point, you're still thinking of him.

"Didn't he also help you rescue your son?"

Hua Xu was speechless after being confronted, because what she said was indeed true.

My son is being taken care of by Gu Shidai in the Special Economic Zone, which is hundreds of times safer than having him by my side.

……

Two helicopters landed at a golf course north of Xiaomopo.

The owner behind this stadium is Nati, the leader of the Green Bamboo Gang.

Lin Chen was the first to get off the plane. He watched as the cabin door opposite opened and saw that Lu Siqi was the first person to get off. He quickly walked over to her.

Lu Siqi endured the pain in her abdomen and straightened her back with steady steps.

Seeing her like this, Hua Xu momentarily forgot his identity and followed closely behind, preparing to drape his coat over her shoulders.

Lin Chen, however, was one step ahead of him and walked up to Lu Siqi. He took off his suit jacket, draped it over her shoulders, and then picked her up in his arms.

Seeing this, Hua Xu remained where he was and did not go forward until the two figures disappeared from sight. Only then did he turn around and go back to the plane, saying to the pilot, "Take off, let's go back to Sanjiang first."

Because of Lin Chen's stance, he would never let Lu Siqi leave.

Xiaomopo was his territory, and there were no Hua family spies there, so Lu Siqi was actually safe there.
