When Xu Rubao heard that Lu Jingheng was going to have surgery, Madam Lu originally told her to take a nap in the guest room, but she had no desire to sleep at all.

She went straight into Lu Jingheng's room. He was probably exhausted from the past two days and was sleeping soundly, not even noticing her coming in.

Normally, if she came in, he would definitely have noticed, given his vigilance.

Xu Rubao thought that if he had an attack in the future, she definitely couldn't leave him, because she always felt it was dangerous.

Lu Jingheng didn't wake up until around 4 p.m.

He felt much better and turned to the side, only to see Xu Rubao staring straight at him.

Her expression looked somewhat serious.

He pulled back the covers, got out of bed, and pinched her nose. "What's wrong? Why do you look so troubled? Did someone bully you?"

He thought for a moment and concluded that no one in the Lu family would be bold enough to cause her trouble.

Xu Rubao removed his hand. "Are you planning to have surgery?"

Lu Jingheng was taken aback. Since she had already asked, he couldn't keep it from her any longer.

"Yes, the medical team is ready, and they are all top-notch doctors, so you don't need to worry too much."

Xu Rubao looked at him and heard his relaxed tone, as if it were just a minor cold.

"No, you don't have to lie to me. I'm a medical student, how could I not know the risks? Don't take the risk, I'm scared..."

Lu Jingheng touched her head and pulled her into his arms. "But without surgery, there's no way to completely eradicate it. I don't want you to be afraid of me."

Xu Rubao quickly shook her head, "No, I'm not afraid of you. I'll only be afraid if you get hurt. I really don't mind."

"Fool, if there were a way, I would have done it long ago. I plan to propose to you after my surgery is successful. It wouldn't be fair to you to marry me like this if I can't guarantee your future."

Xu Rubao was slightly moved; he had taken this risk for her sake.

"No need, you don't need surgery, I'm still willing to marry you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jingheng reached out and lifted her chin. "Really?"

Xu Rubao was just going along with what he said; of course, that was what she actually thought.

However, being stared at so intensely by Lu Jingheng made her nervous, and her face flushed.

Finally, she nodded slightly. "Of course I want to be with you, so I don't agree to you taking the risk. We'll skip the surgery. It's been so many years already, let's think of another way. Besides, I feel like the dark spot in your brain seems to have shrunk a little. How about we go get it checked out?"

Lu Jingheng hesitated for a moment. What she said wasn't unreasonable, because he also felt that the duration of this attack was shorter than usual.

He glanced at the petite woman in front of him. Could it be that she had a point?

Lu Jingheng didn't say anything, but simply agreed to go for the check-up first.

The next morning, Xu Rubao was worried that he might secretly have surgery, so she went to the hospital with him for a check-up.

Lu Jingheng's illness has been treated by a professional team.

After Lu Jingheng arrived at the hospital, the doctor immediately arranged for him to have a brain examination.

The results of the examination didn't take long; the doctor looked at the X-ray again and again.

Xu Rubao couldn't help but feel nervous. "Has it gotten worse?"

"No, it's not that. Compared to the last test results, it's shrunk by a fifth. Young master, have you taken any other medications recently?"
