173. Stirring up trouble

Qiao Xu carefully read the email and then called President Xie back.

"President Xie, I've read the email, there are no issues, and everything will be done as you said."

When discussing business matters, Qiao Xu would naturally become engrossed, so much so that she forgot that her foot was injured and she couldn't walk. While talking to President Xie on the phone, she stood up from the dining chair.

"Alright, I'll go to the study to handle it now."

Lu Moqing saw her getting up and frowned instantly. As Qiao Xu's injured foot touched the ground, the pain made her retract her foot immediately. She then lost her balance and started to fall.

Fortunately, Lu Moqing was sitting close to her and caught her in his arms before she hit the ground.

Qiao Xu was quite frightened just now and had unintentionally stood up, applying too much pressure on her injured foot. The pain was intense, so she could only cling tightly onto Lu Moqing's clothes, her heart pounding heavily.
