Chapter 54 Time Will Not Wait



"Su Ziyi, what happened to my sister-in-law?" Upon receiving the news, Lu Jin rushed over from home, still wearing his pajamas with a large coat over his clothes.

"The doctor said that her emotions affected the child, and coupled with sitting outside for a long time, the child developed a fever."

"If she continues to be so careless, she will lose the baby."

She was a little confused. "Wait, are you saying my sister-in-law has been waiting at the door all this time?"

"Where is my older brother?" She clearly remembered that her sister-in-law told her before she left that Lu Shen would come to pick her up in the evening.

He hasn't come over all night?

Lu Jin quickly took out his phone to call Lu Shen, but he still couldn't get through.

"What on earth is Lu Shen busy with?!" Lu Jin was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode.

Inside the hospital, after confirming that Li Anran had been transferred to the intensive care unit and was being watched over, Lu Shen realized that it was already very late, and he had originally planned to meet her that evening.

But given the current situation, forget it, I can't leave right now.

He wearily took out his phone, only to find that it had already shut down due to the battery being completely depleted.

Just then, a nurse passed by in the corridor, and Lu Shen asked to borrow her phone, "Miss, could I borrow your phone? I need to make a call to my wife."

One second the nurse was overjoyed that such a handsome man was talking to her, but the next second, after hearing that he was already married, her face was clearly filled with disappointment. How come all the good men are already married?

"Of course."

Su Ziyi and Lu Jin were by Jian Ruoxi's bedside as the doctor performed a final examination on her.

"Doctor, is my sister-in-law really alright?" Lu Jin asked worriedly.

Since marrying into the Lu family, Jian Ruoxi seems to have had few good days. This family is like a den of dragons and tigers, making it hard to breathe.

"The patient was fine after waking up, but you still need to pay close attention to the pregnant woman's emotions. Pregnant women are most emotionally sensitive during pregnancy."

"Try not to upset her."

Su Ziyi nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, we'll keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn't get hurt."

"Su Ziyi".

Having worked with Su Ziyi for so many years, Lu Jin had a clear understanding of the situation; this was definitely not something he said casually.

"Brother, where did you go at such a crucial moment?"

She had no doubt that if her older brother continued to hurt her sister-in-law like this, Su Ziyi would probably take action.

Just then, Jian Ruoxi's phone rang, and Su Ziyi took it out of her pocket.

Was it my older brother who called?

Lu Jin's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

As long as he comes, as long as he still cares, things will take a turn for the better.

Su Ziyi showed the screen to Lu Jin, "It's not Lu Shen, it's an unknown number." After saying that, Su Ziyi hung up the phone.

"It's probably a harassing call from a fan who found the sister-in-law's number." Nobody paid any attention to this.

Neither of them expected that the call was from Lu Shen.

Seeing that the call was disconnected, Lu Shen felt somewhat relieved. He had just forgotten that she rarely answered calls from strangers.

"They've probably already gone home."

Lu Shen assumed that if Jian Ruoxi didn't wait for him, she would naturally go home.

However, he had been overlooking one thing for a long time: every time he came home late, there was always a woman who was so tired that she collapsed on the dining table.

Wait for him to come back.

This has been the case for three years.

Perhaps because it was like this every day, he had become somewhat accustomed to it and never thought of this matter.

Some people believe that all explanations can be given the next day, and that all misunderstandings can be resolved later.

People can wait, but time cannot.

The next day, Jian Ruoxi was still asleep, immersed in her past dreams. Su Ziyi and Lu Jin stayed with her all night.

"Go to the film set first. The crew can be missing one or two actors, but it can't be without you as the director."

“But what if it’s her?” Lu Jin was worried.

“I’m here for her, as long as Director Lu is willing to grant me leave.” Su Ziyi didn’t want Jian Ruoxi to be all alone at this moment.

If there really was one, he hoped it would be himself.

"Alright, then I'll leave Ruoxi to you." Lu Jin picked up his phone from the table and was about to leave.

Her phone suddenly vibrated; it was a headline news notification pushed to her by a mobile app.

As a director in the entertainment industry, staying informed about current events is a daily habit for her.

I originally intended to just glance at it, but I was drawn in by the striking name on it.

"How is this possible?" Lu Jin clicked on the news, his face filled with disbelief.

"Director Lu, why aren't you in a hurry to leave? What big thing did you see?" Su Ziyi teased.

Lu Jin stammered out the headline: "The eldest son of the Lu family appeared at Miss Li's residence at night. Who exactly is the young mistress of the Lu family?"

"What?" Su Ziyi snatched Lu Jin's phone away.

This isn't the only news story about Lu Shen.

Will the future heiress of a wealthy family be a popular actress or a socialite?

Who is the mistress?

Who will be the true love of the young master of the Lu family?

Su Ziyi felt increasingly sorry for Jian Ruoxi, who was still in the hospital bed, pregnant with that man's child, and had waited for him at the door all night.

But in the end, Lu Shen appeared at another woman's doorstep.

He worried about Jian Ruoxi, "If Ruoxi wakes up, will she be able to withstand such a blow?"

"Su Ziyi, I'll trouble you to take care of Ruoxi here. I'm going to find out what's going on and then find that Lu Shen guy." Lu Jin stormed out of the ward.

What kind of things do they do every day?

Lu Shen woke up on a chair in the hospital. He borrowed a charger to fully charge his phone and immediately turned it on, thinking of calling Jian Ruoxi.

There are more than a dozen incoming calls displayed, all from Jian Ruoxi.

Just as he was about to call back, Lu Jin's caller ID appeared on his phone.

Why is she making a phone call at this time?

Since that man surnamed Li left, this younger sister has become much more distant from him, and she won't call him unless it's an emergency.

"What's up?"

Hearing his brother's indifferent tone, Lu Jin was furious. "Lu Shen, you're still entangled with that woman Li Anran. The fact that you went to Li Anran's place last night is now known all over the internet."

"Now that's your problem, let's see how you explain it."

"Did she see the news? Is she alright now?" Lu Shen was a little worried about her health. That woman didn't seem to be very good at taking care of herself.

"Alright, you still have the nerve to ask her? Take care of your own business first, it's none of your concern. Where are you right now?"

It's not right to keep Su Ziyi in the hospital room all the time; if the paparazzi find out, there will be plenty of gossip online.

"I'm at the hospital. Li Anran had an accident yesterday."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Jin yelled, "Fine, then you can just stay there."

"Lu Jin, do me a favor."
