Chapter 221 - Mens Watch



Chapter 221 - Men\'s Watch

When the queen loses her patience, it is when all hell breaks loose.

Today, she is Mrs. Xiu. But before she got married, she was a soldier who prioritized the country before her life. She fought and lived on a battlefield of guns and explosives, with her life on the line every second.

The youngest woman who followed in her father’s footsteps, Lieutenant General Yu. A woman who was one step away from the Shangjiang position and gave up that opportunity to lead a peaceful life with her family.

Yet, fate doesn’t seem to want them to live in peace.

"Does the offer of returning for duty still stands?" Yu Shi Huang spoke as soon as the call connected.

It was the only way that she knew wherein she could fight. Her husband and second son won’t be able to stand against the people in the underworld, but she can.

Unless she is a soldier, stepping into that place is felonious. Hence, she would have to return to her active duty to be permitted to go to that place and investigate. It has been so many years, but that thirst for blood that flowed her veins have never been stronger. Especially when she thought of her eldest son lying on the bed with his life hanging by a thread, and her daughter who was imprisoned by fear and trauma after all these years.

Back in the Lu Family.

Xiu Mei slept deeply that day almost missing lunch. If it weren’t for King who was nudging her awake because they were hungry, she would have surely continued sleeping on an empty stomach.

She stared at the lion and tiger gnawing on a piece of raw meat on the bowl from where she was sitting on the dining table. Gone was the couple of maids who would usually stand nearby to wait on her if she has any requests leaving her and the two animals alone.

Her forehead creased.

These two would usually eat outside ah. Why do they keep biting the end of her dress when she tries to leave them outside?

Why are they like their owner today? Becoming too sticky to her. Do Lu Chen and these animals probably have some kind of telepathic powers or something similar that could make them behave like their owner?

Well, they ARE here for her protection though. So it makes sense that they’re stuck to her.

But before, it was fine with them being just outside...huh?

Xiu Mei felt as if she was missing something. Maybe it was just her imagination?

She... She’s just probably thinking too much, right?

She withdrew her gaze from the two and resumed eating her lunch.

Somehow, she feels weird. Hmmm...

Xiu Mei returned to her room with a stuffed stomach. Likewise, the two animals followed behind her like a dog following its owner. It’s just that she wasn’t really their owner. It was Lu Chen and Lu Qiang.

She sat down on the bed and watched Lucia and King playing.

Maybe because of that night activity, Xiu Mei felt too tired than normal. Aside from her sore waist, it was as if she had a super intense exercise routine for hours.

And so, to stop herself from sleeping too much, Xiu Mei diverted her attention to other stuff.

Kei’s birthday was approaching and he invited her to his party, so she intends to go out and look for a gift for him. Maybe should just go to the mall today?

She wondered what she should buy.

Last year, she bought him a new custom made Japanese set of knives made by a veteran knife maker. This year, should I give him a magazine? Oh! Probably a compilation of Jing Yan’s pictures for keeping?

Recalling her previous conversation with her girlfriends, Kei personally dropped Jing Yan home after the party. Interesting~ It seems like he’s planning to chase and get her back. She giggled at the thought.

But seriously though, what should she give him this year? Should she just get him a mezzaluna? Gifting knives for two straight years... doesn’t sound so bad.

So that’s settled. She picked up her phone and started shopping.

Oh, this looks good! Wait... is this better than the other one? Let’s look for others.

Scroll up~ Scroll up~ wait, that ad is so cute. Are those clothes for kids?

Ohmygosh they all look so adorable! It would definitely look good on Qiang Qiang~ Buy!

Oh! This one too. Buy! Eh? This one is for girls? Waaahh so cute! Too bad she only has a son ah... scroll up~ scroll up~

Ooooh! A baby shark watch! Should I buy it? Look, they even have the mother and father shark version. Do they have grandparents’ versions as well? Buy!

This one doesn’t look so bad. Wait, this one looks so gorgeous. Is this real? Mygod, it’s a luxury version. Though it doesn’t look as expensive as the watch that Lu Qiang gave her, still, this one doesn’t lose out ah.

Wait. Lu Qiang’s watch?

Xiu Mei’s impulse online shopping spree halted.

Ah! She completely forgot about it!! Her bracelet and watch with a tracker!

Where did it go? Maybe Wan Wan threw it away when she was kidnapped? Or maybe it was left in the hotel somewhere?

Xiu Mei felt bad. Those were so expensive ah... especially the watch. That was the first gift that she received from her son, though Lu Qiang originally wanted her to give it to his father so she could track Lu Chen.

Hmmm, maybe she could still find it? Both have trackers right. Maybe if she ask Lu Chen to track the watch for her... maybe it’s possible?

And so, Xiu Mei decided to consult him about it once he got home. She didn’t want to ask Lu Qiang to find it since she didn’t want to see him disappointed that she lost it, and it was better for the child not to remember it else he asks about it.

"Did you perhaps... found a watch in my bag when I was kidnapped? Or anywhere when you were trying to look for me?"

"A watch? Why? I could just buy you another one if you lost it." A surprising statement coming from the economical CEO who loves to wear unbranded stuff.

"No, that’s not it. The men’s watch is a gift from someone so I felt bad when I realized I lost it. Was it not there?"

"A men’s watch?" Lu Chen’s lips tightened. Who dared to gift his wife a watch, even more so a men’s watch! He suddenly had the idea of killing that person at the moment.

Xiu Mei nodded.

"No, there was none." He coldly responded. That damned watch can go and disappear into the depths of hell for all he cares. But he still has to know who gave her that.

"Who gave it to you?" He tried to ask as casually as possible to not alarm his wife.

"Eh? Ah... from someone." Xiu Mei stuttered.

Lu Chen’s eyes narrowed as he felt jealousy slowly eat him. SO.WHO.WAS.THIS.GUY?!

But he kept his emotions in check so Xiu Mei couldn’t see the inner turmoil he was having at the moment.

"If it has a tracker..." Xiu Mei started.

Lu Chen’s eyelids jumped. "The watch has a tracker built in it?!"

He felt his blood pressure soar. A man dared to put a tracker on his wife!!!!

No! This one, he couldn’t let it slide. He would go and have someone investigate who this person was and beat him up.

Xiu Mei slightly jumped when he suddenly rose his voice. Luckily, she was already used to him roaring in anger inside the conference room so she wasn’t scared by it one bit.

"Is it possible to find it if it has a tracker?"

Lu Chen almost couldn’t hide the disbelief on his face as he looked at his wife.

And why is his wife so keen on finding this watch! Who is it?! Who was it from!?

"No! It’s not possible!" He stubbornly decided. He wouldn’t let that watch return to Xiu Mei’s hands ah!

"Really?"

"Yes!"

"...Okay..."

Although Xiu Mei didn’t have that much expectation, she was still a bit disappointed hearing Lu Chen’s response.

Ah, she really feels terrible. To think she lost the first thing she received from her son. She felt like a terrible mother ah.

Seeing his wife’s downcast expression, Lu Chen instantly felt guilty. His anger disappeared as he felt weak in front of his wife’s sad look on her face.

He slightly felt regret for letting himself get too caught up with his emotions. Maybe he was being too much?

Looks like it was so important for his wife. Lu Chen sighed. Compared to beating up the man who gave the watch to his wife, he was more fearful of his wife’s dispirited look than satisfying his possessiveness and obsession with her.

"I’ll see what I can do." Lu Chen added. Xiu Mei’s expression lit up with her eyes almost twinkling in happiness.

"Really?!"

Lu Chen gulped. ".... Just tell me a few things about the tracker then maybe we could figure something out."

And so, the man who was jealous of his son’s gift(he didn’t know it was him!) surrendered to his wife for the nth time.
