The news that Bai Lu was seriously injured in the dungeon spread quickly, but more people were privately mocking Bai Lu for being useless. Even a medicine man locked in the dungeon could hurt her. No one knew what Miss Rose saw in this kind of woman.
Bai Lu felt ashamed, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to silence the people under her.
It would be embarrassing if this matter got out, and she couldn't let Rose see how useless she was.
But she couldn't swallow this!
The pain in her abdomen kept reminding her that this was the humiliation Lu An Ning had brought upon her. She had to take double the revenge from Lu An Ning for this blow.
The doctor gave her some reminders and was about to leave when Bai Yue pushed the door open, his cold face expressionless.
Bai Lu frowned and muttered softly, "Who is so talkative? I've already told you not to spread it."
Bai Yue sneered, "You made such a commotion in the dungeon, I think it's hard for me not to know. Do you really think that if you tell the people below to shut up, Rose will not know?"
"Hasn't she been discussing academic issues with Professor An these past few days? When she's serious, nothing can disturb her. By the time she recovers, my injuries will be almost healed."
Bai Yue sighed softly, "I warned you long ago not to mess with Lu Anning. The fact that she survived the Colosseum proves she's different from those pampered rich girls. And there's a knife! You brought someone back with such a dangerous thing hidden on her. Luckily, she didn't stab you in the vitals."
"Brother, are you saying she went easy on me? This isn't the first time I've suffered at her hands. Lu Anning and I are at war until death, so just stay out of our business."
"You think I want to intervene, but look at you now, you haven't improved at all. If I don't intervene, you'll die. Listen to me, don't mess with her for now."
"Then I took the knife in vain?"
Bai Yue frowned. "Just consider this a lesson for yourself! Take good care of yourself these few days and don't worry about anything else. Don't forget, Tang Jingyuan is here too. If he finds out that you laid hands on his woman, he won't let you go."
"Brother, he's just a prisoner now, we shouldn't be afraid of him. They can never leave in this life. Here, we have the final say."
Bai Yue looked at her deeply and said nothing more, but just told her to have a good rest.
If Bai Yue hadn't had any other choice, he wouldn't have wanted to bring her into this world. To survive, he was just jumping from one quagmire to another.
"Lulu, I really don't know whether it's right or wrong to introduce you to Rose."
Bai Lu forced a smile: "Being able to see you is better than anything else. At least, no one dares to bully me now. I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. Really!"
"Don't hang out with Aaron, okay?"
Bai Lu smiled and said "hmm", and the smile on her face gradually disappeared until the door of the room closed.
She knew that A'long was not a good choice, but her brother had no idea that now, she could only find an outlet for her emotions in A'long. She didn't want to dream about the past when she closed her eyes anymore. Only the stimulation A'long brought her made her feel that she had truly left that purgatory.
Thinking of Lu Anning, Bai Lu's expression gradually darkened...
Just as Lu An Ning expected, Bai Lu was injured by her. Within half a day, someone came to search her for the dagger. Unfortunately, they searched the entire cell but still found nothing.
Not long after, Bai Yue came over in person.
Seeing him standing in front of him like a normal person, Lu Anning was not too surprised.
Bai Yue's leg had been receiving treatment. When she had previously visited her second brother, he had said that Bai Yue's leg should be almost healed. With her mother personally giving him acupuncture, the results would only be better.
"Mr. Bai, we meet again."
Bai Yue looked down at Lu An Ning, not quite satisfied with her calm expression.
"You hurt my sister, and you're not afraid at all when you see me."
"Your leg is healed, and I didn't even get to congratulate you."
"I'm talking about my sister's injury. That knife was not light."
Lu Anning twitched his lips and said, "You're a professional at examining injuries, so you should know that I showed mercy on that knife. So? Do you want justice for Bai Lu?"
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"
"You can kill me anytime you want. Why bother coming here in person? Let me guess. Is it because I can't die right now?"
"Lu Anning, has anyone ever told you that you're too smart? Smart people can easily get themselves into trouble."
Lu Anning looked at Bai Yue seriously. "Although I don't know what you've been through in those years out there, you risked your life for military merit, and now you're standing on the opposite side. Are you worthy of your past self?"
"Want to persuade me?" Bai Yue smiled bitterly. "I've been corrupted for a long time. Do you think that after being undercover for so many years, even if I keep my original intention, how many people will believe me when I come back? It's too easy for outsiders to talk. You have no idea how I survived."
"So you've abandoned your past self? You've actually been everyone's hero all these years."
Bai Yue clenched his fists fiercely: "What's the use! There's no going back! Who would still live in the past? I'm not as great as you think. It was me who stole the mission, and it was also me who selfishly blamed all the suffering on him. That's just who I am. You hurt Lulu, even if someone wants to protect you, it's useless. This matter won't just end like this. Lu Anning, you should think about your own situation first!"
With a cold face, he walked towards Lu Anning step by step, the military knife in his hand flashing with cold light in the dim light...
