Lu Rang took the medicine, said nothing, just nodded slightly, and turned to leave the study.
Watching his son's departing figure, Lu Zheng could no longer suppress the calm on his face.
He called out to Dr. Wang, who was about to leave, and lowered his voice, his tone tinged with worry: "Dr. Wang, will taking this medicine for so long have any effect on his health? Also, has there been any sign of his memory returning recently?"
Dr. Wang adjusted his glasses, a professional and confident smile spreading across his face: "Sir, please rest assured, this medicine was carefully formulated by me. Although its effects are strong, I have minimized the side effects. As long as you don't overdose, it won't cause any substantial harm to your body. As for your memory..."
He spoke with even greater certainty, “There is absolutely no sign of recovery. The intervention by the psychologist, medication, and hypnosis was very thorough, and the subsequent consolidation treatment was also very successful. The situation you are worried about will never happen.”
Lu Zheng breathed a slight sigh of relief and waved for Dr. Wang to leave.
However, as soon as Dr. Wang stepped out of the study, turned the corner of the corridor, and confirmed that no one was around, he immediately took out his phone.
The respectful and professional expression on his face instantly turned into one of ingratiation and nervousness.
He dialed a number, lowered his voice, and spoke very quickly: "Young Master, don't worry. When Mr. Lu asked just now, I answered as you instructed. He didn't suspect anything. He believes you are still taking your medication on time and that your memory has no chance of returning."
"Yes, I know. Please help me find a job at Yujia Wharf."
The person on the other end of the phone said something, and Dr. Wang nodded and bowed repeatedly.
Only after the other party hung up the phone did he lean against the wall, feeling utterly exhausted, and let out a long sigh of relief.
The medication had been stopped, but as a doctor, he couldn't tell whether Lu Rang had fully regained his memory.
No one knew what Lu Rang was doing in secret.
He only hoped that one day, when the lakes of Anhui were no longer peaceful, he, a mere doctor, could escape unscathed.
On the other end of the phone.
Lu Rang stood in front of the villa's floor-to-ceiling window, holding the bottle of medicine that had just been prepared in his hand.
He listened to Dr. Wang's report expressionlessly, then tossed his phone onto the red velvet sofa and threw the medicine bottle into the trash can next to him.
The trash can was piled high with unopened medicine bottles.
Unbeknownst to everyone, he had stopped taking painkillers a month earlier.
Lu Rang turned around, his gaze falling on the photo frame on the desk, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
He picked up his phone again and made a call.
"Is the design competition ready?"
"Okay, let's open the registration process."
...
The next day, Shang Wu had taken all the medicine.
She went to the hospital for a more comprehensive physical examination, which showed that her body had returned to normal and there was no accumulation of toxins.
Shang Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and A Ying also smiled.
"That's great, Mr. Shang. You're all better now. Is there anything you'd like to do? I can go out with you to celebrate."
Shang Wu curled her lips: "I don't want to celebrate. I want to participate in the next design competition. The publicity has been quite lively these past two days, and I'm itching to participate."
Aying's eyes widened in surprise: "You mean..."
Shang Wu nodded: "I want to participate in that design competition I showed you last night. Anyway, I've been free lately, and I'm not interested in anything else besides design."
Ah Ying nodded quickly.
"Okay, okay, I'll register you on the official website. But once you participate in the design competition, you'll definitely be busy. The competition is estimated to last for three months. You've just recovered, are you sure you can handle it?"
"Yes, you can."
Shang Wu nodded casually, "It just so happens that Chen Chunzhi and Chef Cheng have been bothering me. If I go to participate in the competition, they won't dare to bother me anymore, so as not to annoy me every day."
Ah Ying burst out laughing.
"If it were me, I would be incredibly happy. Two handsome guys would be vying for my attention all the time. Wouldn't that be great?"
Shang Wu was speechless. "Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy before? What are those two compared to Lu Rang..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shang Wu's smile froze instantly.
She gave a slight smile. "Could you register me on the official website first?"
Aying pretended not to hear the name she mentioned.
For some people, bringing it up has become a habit.
Such things can probably only be left to fade with time.
She helped Shang Wu find a design competition on the website and registered her with one click.
