Lu Baofei drove the car into the hospital parking lot and slammed on the brakes.

Liang Shiyue tried to open the car door but found it locked. She asked hesitantly, "Miss Lu, why won't you let us get out?"

Lu Baofei quickly composed herself, slowly turned her head, her face full of worry.

"Xiaoyue, Lu Yi needs to see a doctor. When the doctor comes, will you accompany him to the doctor's appointment?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi wore an incredulous expression.

Are you kidding me?

Before Lu Yi could protest, Liang Shiyue was so anxious she almost jumped up.

"Lu Yi came to see Uncle Lu, why did you make the decision on your own?"

As she said this, her hand suddenly felt cold. She looked down and saw that Lu Yi was holding her fingers, indicating that she should do as he said.

In a few glances, Liang Shiyue quickly understood Lu Yi's intention.

Feigning reluctance, she said, "Whatever you say, it doesn't really matter to me anyway. So when can we go see Uncle Lu?"

Lu Baofei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll make the arrangements!"

The nurse just said on the phone that when Lu Gensheng was brought to the hospital, he showed no signs of waking up, and all departments immediately organized a consultation.

Before she could hang up the phone, the doctors dispersed with grave expressions.

At the same time, Lu Baozhi's message also came through.

The message was just a few words: Second sister, take good care of Lu Yi.

Lu Baofei couldn't bear to tell such a cruel truth, so she could only tell her eldest sister that Lu Yi seemed to have stress-induced aphasia and that his condition was very bad!

"The doctor is here!"

Liang Shiyue's words brought Lu Baofei back to reality. She unlocked the car, got out first, and described Lu Yi's symptoms to the doctor.

Liang Shiyue and Lu Yi nodded to each other, and before the doctor approached the car door, they got out from the other side and ran towards the entrance of the emergency room.

"No, I can't run anymore, Lu Yi, you run, I'll hold them off!"

Liang Shiyue was wearing soft leather shoes and wide-leg pants, which made it difficult for her to run. When she went up the stairs, she stepped on her trouser leg and almost tripped.

Lu Yi glanced at the people chasing after him from the parking lot, and had no choice but to let go of Liang Shiyue's hand, gesturing wildly to tell her to be careful.

"Lu Yi, please listen to your sister! I'm doing this all for your own good!"

Seeing Lu Yi give her a cold glance and turn away, Lu Baofei anxiously spoke to the security guard.

Liang Shiyue spread her arms and blocked the staircase, trying her best to buy Lu Yi time.

"Lu Yi is Lu Gengsheng's only family member. The patient was sent to your hospital, why won't you let his family members in!"

"Security guards, do you have families? Think about it, if this happened to you, could you accept it?"

"Don't touch me... Let go! Miss Lu, you keep saying you're Lu Yi's sister, have you ever thought about what he really wants..."

With her small frame weighing only 90 pounds, how could she possibly stop several strong security guards?

During the struggle, she was thrown down the steps.

Lu Baofei was about to chase after Lu Yi when Liang Shiyue grabbed the hem of her skirt.

With tears in her eyes, she said, "Why are you all so cruel to Lu Yi? Seeing him like that breaks my heart. Don't you feel the same way?"

Lu Baofei stood there stunned, holding back her tears, and turned around to help Liang Shiyue up.

...

Lu Yi ran all the way to the emergency room corridor.

A cart covered with a white sheet slowly approached him, the noise of its wheels rubbing against the ground like a hammer pounding on the taut string in his mind.

Aunt Liu and Uncle Liu wiped away their tears and followed behind.

Upon suddenly seeing Lu Yi, Aunt Liu almost forgot how to cry.

Uncle Liu reacted quickly, picking up the dazed Lu Yi and pulling her to a seat. "Yi'er, good child... Old Lu passed away peacefully, but he was still thinking of you before he left..."

Lu Yi opened his mouth and breathed heavily, like a fish about to dry up, his lips turning purple.

Aunt Liu came over to comfort him, "Child, don't scare me. What do you want to say? I'm listening!"

"Let...let go...let him go!"

Lu Yi's eyes were bloodshot, and with all his might, he finally let out a shrill scream.

He shook off Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu's hands, rushed to the car, and pushed aside the staff, shouting, "Let him go! He's not dead! He won't die..."

The staff were used to this situation and frowned as they asked Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu to pull the family members away.

Lu Yi lifted the white cloth and rubbed Lu Gensheng's face.

The wrinkles on the old man's face had faded, and he looked much younger. Lu Yi pressed his face against his chest, his voice sounding like he was talking in his sleep.

“Uncle, get up! This morning you said that if it doesn’t rain today, you will go patrolling the mountain, and Yi’er will go with you.”

"Are you upset because Yi'er has been running around outside these past few days? Yi'er promises you, I will never leave you again."

“Uncle, Yi’er is already selling the house, there’s money for your medical treatment… Open your eyes, look at me…”

Lu Baozhi was about to go and apply for a death certificate and other documents when she saw this scene, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

Liang Shiyue entered, supported by Lu Baofei. Seeing that Lu Gengsheng was already gone, she covered her face and slid to the ground, sobbing, "Uncle Lu..."

Just as everyone was about to give Lu Yi more time to properly say goodbye to his uncle, he suddenly let go of Lu Gengsheng, stood up straight, and looked around at the crowd of onlookers.

When he saw Lu Baozhi, his expression was calm and composed.

It was as if the one who was crying just now wasn't him, but someone else entirely.

"Dr. Lu, I would like to request an autopsy. Please tell me how to apply..."

Lu Baozhi paused, wiping her eyes, and stared at him in confusion. "An autopsy? Old Master Lu's medical records are complete, and his medication is clearly defined. He died because..."
