Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 1006 - 1003: He Has Something on His Mind

Upon hearing this, Lu Xinyun was terrified, "You mean, my brother is drunk?"

"Yes. You should hurry. He’s had a lot to drink, someone needs to be there to take care of him."

Lu Xinyun didn’t ask any more questions. She quickly asked him for the hotel’s address, hung up the phone, and sent the address to Leng Shuangshuang, adding: This is the first time my brother has ever gotten drunk in his life, no one knows how he’ll react; I’m counting on you.

When Leng Shuangshuang received the message from Lu Xinyun, she was just about to go to bed.

She knew that she couldn’t sleep at night, but for the sake of her health, she had to try.

Just as she lay down in bed, the message from Lu Xinyun came through. First, an address was sent, and when she saw the sentence following the address, her heart ached a bit.

Lu Jincheng went drinking right after leaving her?

But, in the afternoon he said those things here; if she went to find him again, who knows what unpleasant things he’d say once he sobers up tomorrow.

After giving it some thought, she decided to ignore Lu Xinyun’s message, turned off the light, and went to sleep. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

About half an hour later, her phone rang again, this time it wasn’t a message, it was a call.

Leng Shuangshuang was still awake; seeing it was a call from Lu Xinyun, she hesitated for a moment before answering.

"Shuang’er, are you asleep?"

"...Yes. Is there something you need?"

On the other end, Lu Xinyun was bewildered, "I just knew it, I sent you a message so long ago and you didn’t reply, so you really were asleep." She paused, her tone a bit serious, "Did you know, my brother, who never touches a drop, is actually drunk! This is the first time I’ve ever known him to drink."

Leng Shuangshuang was stunned for a moment, then realized that Lu Jincheng indeed didn’t drink before, and three months ago, that was the first time he drank.

Faced with Lu Xinyun’s words, she didn’t know what to say for a while.

"Shuang’er, I can’t let my parents find out about this, so I’m sending you over. You must take good care of my brother~"

After finishing, without giving Leng Shuangshuang a chance to respond, she hung up the phone.

Nangong Xuan had called her earlier, telling her that Lu Jincheng was upset because of a woman and insisted that she should go to comfort him. So Lu Xinyun called Leng Shuangshuang again, leaving her with no chance to refuse.

Having done this, Lu Xinyun went to sleep peacefully.

As for Leng Shuangshuang, she was completely unable to sleep because of Lu Xinyun’s call.

She just sat on the edge of the bed looking at her phone; the screen was already black and there wasn’t much to see, but she looked for a full ten minutes.

After ten minutes, Leng Shuangshuang let out a long sigh, resignedly changed her clothes, and went out.

When she arrived at the hotel, she immediately saw Nangong Xuan sitting in the lobby, and Nangong Xuan also saw her and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked over, handed her the room key, and said, "He called me in the evening, and once we met, he kept drinking in silence, saying nothing."

Leng Shuangshuang nodded, "I understand."

Nangong Xuan turned to leave but after two steps, he looked back at her, "He’s troubled." With that, he left without turning back.

A moment later, Leng Shuangshuang was at Lu Jincheng’s room door. She took a deep breath, opened the door, and went inside.

The windows in the room were closed; as soon as she entered, the overwhelming smell of alcohol hit her, and she covered her nose as she opened the window. She stood by the window for a while until the smell of alcohol had mostly dissipated before walking to the bed.

On the large bed, Lu Jincheng was sprawled out, lying there, even with his shoes still on.
