Bringing the Nation's Husband Home - Chapter 197

Chapter 197

Madam Chen had prepared breakfast a long time ago . After seeing Qiao Anhao come down, she immediately stopped cleaning the china and asked with a smile, "Madame, would you like some breakfast?"

Qiao Anhao shook her head and walked towards the entrance . As she changed her shoes, she realized something . Lifting her head, she rushed to ask Madam Chen, "What time did Mr . Lu leave in the morning?"

"It wasn't even 6 am . Not long after I had woken up . "

Qiao Anhao nodded and asked again, "Did he look a bit off?"

Madam Chen thought back and said, "Nothing off in particular . . . However, Mr . Lu's complexion wasn't great . His lips were a little pale . "

Qiao Anhao slightly crossed her hands, pursed her lips, but didn't say another word .

After a while, Madam Chen asked, "Madame, did something happen?"

Qiao Anhao shook her head and pushed the door open to leave, smiling at Madam Chen .

Zhao Meng was already at the entrance of the villa's courtyard, waiting for her . Qiao Anhao opened the car door and sat in . Zhao Meng started up the car, jabbering relentlessly about just how late she woke up . Mid-sentence, she saw the red kiss marks all over Qiao Anhao's collar and said with a "tut tut tut", "No wonder you got up so late . . . so someone exerted themselves last night!"

Qiao Anhao's mind was filled with the blood on her hand and bedsheets . She wasn't at all in the mood to bother with Zhao Meng's teasing . She just raised an arm to pull on her collar, then turned her head and looked out the window .

Zhao Meng looked at Qiao Anhao's eyes and asked, "What's wrong? In a bad mood?"

Qiao Anhao still didn't say a word, and so Zhao Meng didn't bother talking either, turning on the music in the car .

There was slight traffic on the city roads, so the car started and stopped . Just when they finally were gaining speed, Qiao Anhao saw a twenty four hour pharmacy and hurriedly said, "Stop the car . "

"What?" Shocked, Zhao Meng quickly stepped on the throttle .

Qiao Anhao grabbed her bag . "I want to drop by the pharmacy . "

"Pharmacy? Where are you hurt?" Zhao Meng asked in concern .

"I'm not, I'm just going to drop by . " Qiao Anhao didn't say anymore to Zhao Meng, just pushed open the car door and jogged over to the pharmacy .

It was already twelve in the afternoon when they reached the set . Qiao Anhao and Zhao Meng grabbed a bite to eat at the hotel restaurant and rushed over .

The make-up artist was already on set waiting . When they finished make up, it was almost time to start filming . Qiao Anhao and Zhao Meng hurried over to the set and saw that that the director and Lu Jinnian's assistant stood by each other . The assistant was on the phone .

The director waved when he saw Qiao Anhao . She walked over and was just about to call, "Director", when Lu Jinnian's assistant put his phone down and rushed over to her .

He greeted her, "Miss Qiao", then turned to the director with an upset expression . "Still no answer . "

"How about the office? Home? Other residences or his favorite places to go . . . Have you searched there?" asked the director with furrowed brows .

"I've looked all over," said Lu Jinnian's assistant .

Qiao Anhao asked aloud, "Did something happen?"

"We can't find Mr . Lu,"the director replied . After a while, he decisively said to Lu Jinnian's assistant, "How about this . . . Perhaps Mr . Lu is really busy, so I'll shoot this scene some other time . I'll wait for news on Mr . Lu, you can go now, and we'll reschedule the scenes later . "
