"Ms. Jane, you have a minor fracture in your arm, but don't worry, I've already taken care of it. Just be careful not to get it wet recently."
He was about to rest when A-Jie pulled him out of bed.
"Thanks."
Jian Ruoxi knew him; he was the most trusted private doctor in the Lu family, and the Lu family would have him handle any minor illnesses.
"What about my child?"
She risked a fracture to brace herself against the floor, reducing the impact on her body. Although there was no reaction in her lower abdomen, she was still worried that other problems might arise.
"Don't worry, the child is fine."
When he examined Jian Ruoxi just now, he had already figured out what had happened based on her injuries.
He couldn't help but feel even more admiration for Jian Ruoxi.
"If you feel unwell, you can call someone to come and get me at any time."
After the doctor left, Jian Ruoxi lay weakly on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
It was already dark, and she still hadn't received any news of Lu Shen's return.
Is he staying at the Lu family's old house today?
He should go there too, since in his opinion, the one who was wronged today was Li Anran.
That night, Lu Jin and Ali did not leave.
Despite having so many servants at home, they still couldn't rest easy until Lu Shen returned.
"Big brother, where did you go during the day? Do you know that Ruoxi is about to leave?"
She deliberately exaggerated, because she didn't believe her older brother wouldn't be nervous.
Has she already left?
My heart skipped a beat.
He would go crazy if Ruoxi weren't at home.
Lu Jin noticed that his older brother was stunned on the spot, so he quickly finished speaking, "Don't worry, brother, I've already kept Ruoxi here."
"I said I'd be hosting a cocktail party here in a few days to promote my new script, and Ruoxi, as the female lead, can't be absent."
Lu Shen breathed a slight sigh of relief, his face returning to calm.
It's good that Ruoxi didn't leave.
Even if he stays for just one more day, he will have one more day to keep the person with him.
Thinking of what Lu Jin had just said, she raised an eyebrow and looked at her younger sister beside her.
"Your real purpose is to attract investors for the script, and keeping Ruoxi is just a side effect."
Don't think he didn't see through her little schemes.
Lu Jin stuck out his tongue awkwardly; as expected, his older brother had found out.
From the very first episode of the script, she began to worry about funding.
She is rich, but she doesn't want to use the Lu family's money to invest in her own scripts; she insists on doing everything herself.
This means she's about to face a problem that all directors worry about.
Funding and investment attraction.
With the venue chosen by my elder brother, are we worried that there won't be CEOs of big companies among the attendees?
"But no matter what, I did help you keep it. What about the investment promotion reception?" Lu Jin asked tentatively.
"I've packed it for you."
This is exactly what Lu Jin was waiting for.
"Thank you very much, brother!"
After all, I helped my brother stop Ruoxi today. Spending some money to host a party is just a matter of talking to my brother.
Lu Jin pulled Ali up and turned to leave.
I guess my older brother will be spending time alone with Ruoxi later, so it's best if they don't get in the way.
Is she asleep?
Lu Shen arrived at Jian Ruoxi's door, reached out to open it but then withdrew his hand, hesitating, unsure whether it was appropriate for him to go in now.
Today, in front of others, he didn't defend her much.
Is she still angry with herself?
"After Miss Jian went into the room, she never came out again."
They were also worried about Miss Jane's current health, but they dared not go in and disturb her.
What did the doctor say?
During the day, her arm looked like it had some injury.
The servants knew the young master would want to know, so they specifically asked the doctor after he left.
"Don't worry, young master. The doctor has examined her and said that Miss Jian has a minor fracture in her arm, but she will recover with rest."
Lu Shen nodded. "That's fine then."
He could no longer suppress his worries and pushed open the door to enter.
After he went inside, the servants whispered among themselves outside the door.
"Hey, why didn't the young master ask Miss Jian if the baby in her belly was alright?"
"Doesn't the young master care?"
Another maid looked at her with disdain, "What do you know? Compared to the child, the young master definitely loves Miss Jane more."
There was no light in the bedroom.
From his direction, he could only see that Jian Ruoxi had buried herself completely under the covers, not even showing her head.
"Sleeping like this, aren't you afraid of suffocating yourself?"
Lu Shen shook his head helplessly and walked to the bedside, intending to move the blanket up a little for her.
But when he saw what was inside the trash can, he visibly paused.
Isn't this the gift box that Ruoxi hid a couple of days ago?
It seems that this is the gift Ruoxi planned to give him.
He hadn't had a chance to find out what was inside.
"It seems that this time..."
Lu Shen murmured softly, then quickly fell silent, afraid of disturbing the person on the bed.
The room was shrouded in darkness. Lu Shen covered Jian Ruoxi with the blanket again, completely unaware that the person on the bed had her eyes closed and her eyelashes were trembling slightly.
What was he trying to say next?
Jian Ruoxi really wanted to get up from the bed right now and ask her the truth.
But the thought of standing next to Li Anran today completely dissipated all his energy at that moment.
"It's a shame to leave it here."
Lu Shen picked the gift box out of the trash can, lightly dusted it off, and silently placed it on the bedside table.
He still hoped that one day, he could see Ruoxi personally hand him the contents of this gift box again.
As for what was inside the gift box, he didn't open it out of curiosity.
"good evening."
Jian Ruoxi only slowly opened her eyes after hearing Lu Shen's footsteps disappear into the corridor.
It seemed as if Lu Shen's lingering scent could still be felt around me.
She reached out and opened the gift box, only to find it empty.
While packing her things in the afternoon, she took out her shirt when no one was looking and put it under her pillow.
They just had the gift box thrown away.
"Lu Shen, what am I supposed to do with you?"
She wanted to leave, but the reason she stayed a few more days was simply to help Lu Jin.
Doesn't he trust Li Anran more?
Why are you showing concern for her again at this time?
Lu Shen, do you know how much confusion your fickleness has caused me?
She has no way of knowing what Lu Shen is really thinking.
Jian Ruoxi pulled out the white shirt from under Chang's pillow, folded it again, put it in the gift box, and closed it.
"Forget it, there's no point in thinking about it so much. I'd rather prepare for my next project."
She was quite curious about the subject matter of the script that Lu Jin had put so much effort into preparing.
It goes to such great lengths, even to the point of holding a banquet.
