Chapter 1326: Chapter 1319: Long Separation Leads to Reunion (5)

Another day passed, and Qin Zhiyou still hadn’t arrived. When Lu Weixi went to work, the outside was already quiet without any journalists interviewing. Not responding was also a response, and it could be seen as an acquiescence. In short, it wasn’t wrong to say that there was a crisis in her relationship with Qin Zhiyou–look, on her usual workdays, she could only drive a Chang’an worth around thirty thousand yuan. Moreover, Qin Zhiyou’s bodyguards hadn’t been seen in the three days she was watched by journalists downstairs.

The interviews outside might have lessened, but inside the company, there were still some turbulent eddies. Everyone had basically confirmed that they were preparing for a divorce, otherwise Simon White wouldn’t have chosen this time to specially come and show his support. But it was also because of his presence that Lu Weixi’s position was still stable.

Moreover, apart from Simon White, the project that Lu Weixi had been working on had also received a favorable response within these three days. Unless something unexpected happened, it was highly likely that she would secure it.

It wasn’t just Lulu– even a well-known design institute might not be able to tie up with a designer of Simon White’s caliber. Even if she divorced Qin Zhiyou in the future, her connections weren’t severed. Those who wanted to see her downfall on this occasion would likely be disappointed.

Although there were still many people discussing it in the company, it didn’t affect her work, and Lu Weixi could pretend she didn’t hear them. Through this incident, she saw clearly that if there was a chance in the future, she should go to a bigger design institute, or set up her own independent studio like Qin Zhigu. She didn’t need to deal with other messy people anymore, nor did she need to care about others’ opinions.

Another sign of her newfound clarity was that she used to stay and work overtime to finish her work, but now, whether for her child or for herself, she would pack up and leave right on time in her high heels, indifferent to anyone around. There were still many people in the office working overtime, sitting at their desks. They would lift their heads to watch her leave but no one dared to say a word.

These days, due to Qin Zhiyou, the relationship between Lu Weixi and her mother had also subtly changed. Although she never talked back to her mother considering her health, their relationship had suddenly cooled down. Lu Weixi found it hard to speak up, and her mother didn’t initiate conversation either. The two tacitly avoided mentioning Qin Zhiyou, but they both knew that pretending wouldn’t last long as her pregnancy wouldn’t wait for anyone. Although her mother firmly said she didn’t need Qin Zhiyou’s help, she wondered what would happen once the child was actually born.

After dinner, Lu Weixi took care of her mother, helping her take her medicine and checking her blood oxygen levels. Recently, her old projects had been completed and the proposal for the new project was still being written, so she had some leisure time. Lu Weixi didn’t go to her own room, instead, she took out the pregnancy guide she had bought the day before and sat next to her mother, flipping through it page by page.

While she was halfway through, Lu Weixi went to answer a phone call. When she came back, she saw her mother sitting beside her, her posture unchanged. She didn’t mind and only realized that the pages of the book had been turned, probably by her mother just then.

Although her mother verbally expressed that she didn’t want her to keep the child, urging her to sever her relationship with Qin Zhiyou, she still cared about her.

It was just that annoying Qin Zhiyou!
