Chapter 25 The Tragic Story of Li Xiuhong

Chu Lulu looked up from her notebook and frowned. She had never seen this person before.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Liu Lin."

"The elderly man who fell on the snow and suffered minor intracranial hemorrhage was my father."

He had asked Fu Lao's deputy these past two days, hoping to find his benefactor.

But his deputy said that Dr. Chu's address needed to be kept confidential.

I never expected to run into you today.

Chu Lulu hesitated for a moment, then stood up and looked at Liu Lin, "My name is Chu Lulu."

Liu Lin rubbed his hands together. Why did this person, who was usually so adept at strategizing at the business table, seem to be acting a little off?

"Dr. Chu, I'm in the medicinal herb business, mainly in Gangcheng."

"This is my phone number. You can call this number anytime you need help."

He lives in the port city. His father had studied abroad and was sent to the countryside a few years ago after being reported by someone. He suffered a lot in the cowshed.

He wanted to take the elderly man to the port city, since his business was all there, and traveling back and forth would be too troublesome and would waste a lot of time on the road.

The old man is getting old and his health is deteriorating, so he wants to bring him to live with him so he can take care of him.

But his father just wouldn't go. The old man was getting on in years and had a bad temper; no matter how much they tried to persuade him, he wouldn't listen.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong before the communication was even finished.

While his father was in a coma, he was filled with regret. His father was old and did not want to leave his hometown. Although he wanted to fulfill his filial duty, he did not consider his father's wish to return to his roots.

Since his father woke up, he decided to respect his father's wishes.

I will make special arrangements to travel between the two places in the future.

"I will keep it safe, and I will call if needed."

Politeness and evasion are completely absent.

Chu Lulu took the business card, glanced at it, and already remembered it.

Seeing that Liu Lin was still standing in front of her, she asked hesitantly, "Is there anything else? Can I sit down for a while?"

Standing like this all the time is getting tiring.

Liu Lin quickly nodded, "Please sit down."

"I'm going to get the medicine and deliver it to the ward, so I'll be going now."

He took a deep breath after walking quite a distance before speaking to Dr. Chu. He was so nervous!

Little did he know that it was entirely because Comrade Chu Lulu had not learned about social etiquette.

"Alright, let's go."

After changing her clothes, Liu Juan took out a large bag of milk candy from her handbag and stuffed it directly into Chu Lulu's arms.

"You keep eating, and let me know when you're done."

"Medical staff must always have sugar in their pockets."

Through several encounters, Liu Juan has discovered that Chu Lulu doesn't understand many things.

With a touch of naivety and ignorance, yet possessing extraordinary medical skills, he was absolutely a god in my heart.

There's a strange sense of enjoyment in nurturing it.

Chu Lulu smiled, then thought for a moment, and pulled a porcelain bottle from her spatial storage into her bag. "This is for you."

"It's similar to face cream, but it's made with Chinese herbal ingredients. I formulated it myself. No matter how cold or windy it is outside, my face will always be soft and smooth."

"These come in pill form. You take one pill at a time, just crush it and apply it to your face."

The money belonged to her younger sister, but the medicine in the space was her own, so she gave it away without the slightest reluctance.

Anyway, they were all little gadgets she researched in her spare time.

"LuLu, thank you."

Liu Juan held the medicine bottle in one hand and pinched her little face with the other.

It's so tender and smooth, it feels amazing! It would be even better if it had a little more meat.

My wish to customize my character's appearance today has been fulfilled!

Chu Lulu blinked. Every time her cheeks were pinched, her expression would lag behind, making her look adorably dazed.

"Come on, I'll take you back."

“There are buses from the city back to the military compound, but they’ll be an hour late. Let’s go first.”

Li Xiuhong came out with a frown and saw two annoying people!

Liu Juan is annoying, and that Lulu girl whose name I don't know is even more annoying!

Wang Chengjun was even more annoyed. He hadn't returned to the dormitory for the past few days. Could he have really gone to find that bitch?

The bicycle clattered as she slammed it down. She was riding on the road when, just as she started pedaling, the chain suddenly came off.

"Ugh! What bad luck!"

Why is everything going wrong since I ran into that Lulu guy?

She's such a jinx, a jinx.

He squatted on the ground, put on the bike chain, his hands covered in oil.

But after riding a few steps, I don't know what the bike ran over, the front tire went flat again.

"Everyone does the opposite of me!"

"You broken bicycle, how dare you go against me!"

Li Xiuhong kicked the bicycle twice in anger, and the bicycle bell fell off and rolled several times on the ground.

She's going crazy.

On the other side, Chu Lulu, with a milk candy in her mouth, leaned against Liu Juan's back, listening to her tell some interesting stories, and the laughter of the two girls could be heard from time to time.

Liu Juan lives in the family building and specially escorted Chu Lulu to the gate of the compound. She saw a person pacing at the gate.

"Aunt Liu."

Chu Lulu has good eyesight; her eyes lit up when she saw Liu Xiuchun, and she jumped off her bicycle.

Startled, Liu Juan quickly braked, saying, "Slow down, wait until I come to a complete stop."

With such an impatient nature, you wouldn't guess he's a miracle doctor.

"Aunt Liu, I'm going home now."

Liu Juan said hello and then rode her bike home.

Chu Lulu jogged over from the alley entrance, "Aunt Liu, what brings you here?"

"You little glutton, if I don't come, you'll go hungry again."

"Open the door first."

Seeing her expectant look, Liu Xiuchun tapped her forehead with her free hand, urging her to open the door.

The two went inside, and Liu Xiuchun put some wood into the stove, and the room quickly warmed up.

"This is dinner. This lunchbox contains rice, and this lunchbox contains braised pork and vegetables."

As soon as the lunchbox was opened, the aroma of braised pork filled the air.

Chu Lulu unconsciously swallowed, "Aunt Liu, it smells so good!"

She couldn't resist pinching a piece with her hand, but Liu Xiuchun gently slapped her hand, saying, "You're not hygienic, go wash your hands."

"Okay."

The ordinary house was filled with laughter.

"Here, take this. It's jerky my husband makes; it tastes pretty good."

"When I go out, I put some snacks in my bag so I can eat when I get hungry."

How could she possibly feel at ease with a child who could starve himself to death?

Chu Lulu, who was enjoying her meal, suddenly froze.

She looked up at Liu Xiuchun and said, "Aunt Liu, you are so good to me."

Liu Xiuchun was both amused and exasperated. She poured her a cup of hot water and asked, "Is that all?"

"Don't let a piece of candy lure you away in the future."

Chu Lulu shoveled rice into her mouth, then shook her head firmly, "No, that won't happen."

Although she doesn't understand many things, she is still very sensitive to people's emotions.

She can tell whether it's genuine or feigned affection.

Liu Xiuchun put the lunchboxes she had brought over into the basket. "I'll take the meat those guys brought over back in a bit, and I'll cook it and bring it to you tomorrow."

"Commander Jiang's sister-in-law brought two chickens to the canteen and asked me to stew them for you to nourish your body."

It was delivered this afternoon. Commander Jiang's family doesn't raise chickens, so they must have gone out to buy them specifically.
