As the long-lost son of the Lu family in Jiangzhou, Lu Yi originally thought this was heaven's favor upon him, but the truth was far from it.
Seventeen years of destitution did not earn h...
Just as Fan Huijun had predicted, Lu Baozhi submitted her resignation to the hospital office as soon as she was discharged from the hospital.
Then he bought a bouquet of flowers and went alone to Lu Gengsheng's grave, where he sat for half a day.
Just as she was about to go find Lu Yi, Officer Ma called and told her to go to the police station as soon as possible.
I had just hung up when my phone rang again.
"Baozhi, weren't you discharged from the hospital today? The family is waiting for you. When are you coming back?"
Qin Fengying's voice was still choked with sobs.
She had to plead with Lu Baoyun to finally persuade her to come back and make an appearance.
He waited and waited, but his eldest daughter didn't appear. His mind was in complete turmoil.
Lu Baozhi hesitated for a moment and said, "Mom, I still have some things to do at the yard, so I'll be back a little late today. You guys eat first!"
Qin Fengying finally couldn't hold back anymore.
"The hospital can't function without you? Or is our Lu family not even as good as a hospital?!"
"One by one, they've run away from home... Look at this house now, it doesn't even look like a home anymore..."
She didn't understand what she had done wrong. In just one month, she had experienced more headaches than in the past ten years.
"mom--"
Lu Baozhi dragged out her words, originally intending to mention the cause of the car accident, but upon hearing Lu Han beside her, she immediately changed her mind.
"I am the attending physician. I did not hand over my work to my colleagues before the accident. Now that I have been discharged from the hospital, it is only natural for me to sort out my work."
"Besides, I only eat at home a few times a month. Can you ask Aunt Wu to save some for me so I can eat it when I get home, okay?"
Before Qin Fengying could answer, Lu Han's voice came over.
"Big sister, Mom cooked a whole table of dishes herself, just to get rid of your bad luck. How about my third sister and I bring you some food?"
Lu Baozhi quickly refused, "No need, if you come, my work will probably have to be postponed until tomorrow."
Lu Han has plans tonight and can't wait to eat a couple of bites and then go out and have some fun.
Hearing that she really didn't intend to go home early, he said disappointedly, "Okay! Then you go ahead and do your work, I'll comfort Mom, don't worry."
Lu Baozhi walked out of the cemetery area blankly, came to the gatekeeper's office, and stared at the locked door.
A staff member, preparing to close the park, asked curiously, "Miss, are you lost? Please follow me this way..."
"Um... I wanted to ask where the people who used to work here went?"
Lu Baozhi raised her hand and pointed.
The staff member sighed, "You mean Old Liu? He took his wife and kids back to his hometown."
Lu Baozhi turned and took a few steps, then asked, "Where are the old man at the gate and his family?"
The staff member frowned: "Old Lu suddenly fell seriously ill and passed away. He's buried on the mountain behind here. As for where his nephew went, I don't know!"
As he spoke, he muttered to himself, "Is this a newly opened tourist attraction or something? Why are there always people asking me all sorts of questions?"
Lu Baozhi thanked him repeatedly, then hailed a taxi and headed straight to the police station.
...
Lu Yi had just stepped downstairs when his phone rang loudly.
"Lu Yi, there's no one watching us. That kid's having a party on the rooftop of Fanghai International, and he's completely out of control right now!"
"Okay, got it!"
"Wait a minute, are you sure you can go alone? The Lin family, the Gu family, and most of the notorious playboys in Jiangzhou are there."
"I can."
"You've only trained with me for three years, and your skills are just amateurish..."
"What era are we living in? You still have to resort to violence to solve problems? Have you forgotten how to take the blame for others?"
Lu Yi abruptly ended the call, strode towards the bike shed, hopped on his electric scooter, and left the residential area.
Lu Baozhi specially asked the driver to take a detour to visit Lu Yi, but she was still completely clueless about the cause of the car accident, so she changed her mind at the last minute.
"Please, driver, go to the police station first!"
She turned her head casually and saw Lu Yi walking away in the opposite direction.
He immediately shouted anxiously, "Driver, turn around, turn around, follow that electric scooter..."
The driver gave her a puzzled look: "Miss, it's a one-way street. You have to go to the intersection ahead to make a U-turn!"
Lu Baozhi stuck her head out of the window and urged, "Yes, yes... hurry!"
The taxi followed him all the way, and when Lu Baozhi saw him enter the Fanghai Hotel, she almost dropped her jaw in shock. "What is Yi'er doing here... Is he short of money again?"
She suddenly remembered that Lu Han had said this more than once.
To earn a living, Lu Yi did all sorts of jobs and frequented entertainment venues, carrying bags and shoes for wealthy women.
With Lu Gengsheng gone, he lost his last support, and it seems he will have a very difficult time.
Just then, her phone rang; it was Officer Ma urging her to hurry up.
"Ms. Lu, you are the car owner. There are some questions I need to ask you. Please come over as soon as possible!"
Lu Baozhi had no choice but to abandon her idea of going in to find out what was going on, and told the driver to turn around and head back to the original destination.
...
Snap!
With a crisp slap, the large, brightly lit space fell instantly silent!
Half-drunk and half-awake, Lu Han cried out in pain, covered her face, and jumped up from the sofa.
"Damn it, who dares to hit me!"
Slap! Slap!
Two more slaps!
Lu Han's face stung with pain, and she swayed and fell back into the soft sofa.
"You son of a bitch... try hitting me again?"
Clang!
Beg me to hit you?
If I don't satisfy you, wouldn't I be letting down your shameless appearance?
The bottle smashed heavily on his head, and a stream of hot liquid poured over his face.
Lu Han was panting heavily in a panic, all traces of alcohol gone.
"You bastard, how dare you lay a hand on me here! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget..."
