Lu Zhiwei did not receive a reply from Luo Wuyan.
The operating room lights went out, and the door was pushed open from the inside by a nurse.
The nurse and the surgeon came out of the main door together, smiling as they walked to Lu Zhiwei's side: "Ms. Lu, the surgery was a success. Little Lu Anyu is out of danger for now. He just needs to rest well afterward."
The child is still under anesthesia and will continue to be observed in the operating room.
The doctor's words instantly relaxed Lu Zhiwei's tense nerves. "That's great, thank you, doctor."
Upon hearing the news, Shen Jinmo smiled slightly and patted Lu Zhiwei's shoulder, saying, "I told you An'an will be fine."
This good news instantly froze Luo Xiu's smug smile on his face.
Her sharp phoenix eyes swept over Luo Wuyan.
Logically speaking, since Luo Wuyan used the new drug developed by the Shen family on Lu Anyu, the surgery could not have been successful and would only have gotten worse.
Lu Zhiwei would then put away her hostile attitude towards him and instead beg him to find a way to save An'an.
That was his ultimate goal.
But now, at the last minute, it all fell through.
Luo Wuyan, who had been lifeless just moments before, suddenly raised his head, a chilling smile spreading across his handsome face.
She slowly walked up to Luo Xiu, looking up at her brother who was a head taller than her: "Aren't you surprised? Things didn't go as you and Father planned?"
"What exactly did you do?" Luo Xiu grabbed Luo Wuyan's fair wrist, as if he wanted to lift her up from the ground.
Luo Wuyan had already experienced a serious illness and was still in the recovery period after surgery.
She felt light and airy, like a paper doll.
Luo Xiu lifted her up, and her feet almost left the ground.
"Luo Xiu, let go of Wu Yan." Lu Zhiwei rushed over and pinched Luo Xiu's arm hard.
The pain prompted Luo Xiu to temporarily release Luo Wuyan.
Luo Wuyan, who nearly fell, was caught in time by Lu Zhiwei, who pulled her into her arms.
"Tell me, what trick did you play?" Luo Xiu's bloodshot eyes seemed to be ignited by rage.
His tall figure loomed over Luo Wuyan, exuding a chilling aura.
Luo Wuyan used to fear that her older brother would threaten her and destroy everything she had.
Having died once, Luo Wuyan seemed to have already become indifferent to life and death.
She was born into the Luo family and has Luo family blood flowing through her veins.
She will never be able to do whatever she wants in her life.
Since she couldn't get what she wanted anyway, what did she have to fear about fighting the Luo family?
"The nurse who came out to inform An'an that she was bleeding heavily was someone I bribed. An'an didn't have any heavy bleeding at all." Luo Wuyan smiled lightly.
A calm arrogance emanated from him, tinged with a hint of mockery.
Lu Zhiwei opened her eyes wide in disbelief: "Then what did I just sign?"
Luo Wuyan held Lu Zhiwei's shoulder and told her with a smile, "It's just a random printed copy. It has no legal effect. Besides, you were so worried about An'an's surgery that you didn't read it carefully. In fact, that informed consent form is full of loopholes."
Luo Wuyan's words made Lu Zhiwei want to both cry and laugh: "You woman, you are so cunning."
"Yeah, that's because I'm a member of the Luo family. I'm just like my brother and my father."
While making fun of himself, Luo Wuyan also cursed Luo Xiu, who was standing next to him.
Clenching his teeth, Luo Xiu clenched his fists, his anger rising from his chest to his head: "Where's the medicine? Father clearly had people watching your every move and saw you deliver the medicine to the doctor."
"The doctor you bribed later had a change of heart and couldn't bear to hurt such a good child as An'an. Even though he knew that the medicine I sent was glucose water, he didn't tell you."
Luo Wuyan finished speaking in one breath.
Luo Xiu's handsome and alluring face was cracking little by little.
"Luo Wuyan, you..."
Luo Wuyan put his arm around Lu Zhiwei's waist and leaned affectionately against her shoulder. "Let me tell you, although you are my brother by blood, you will never be as important to me as Weiwei."
Even if it means hurting myself, I would never harm her in the slightest.
Lu Zhiwei was moved by Luo Wuyan's sincerity, and tears welled up in her eyes.
What merit or ability did Lu Zhiwei have in this life to meet a friend like Luo Wuyan?
They are not blood sisters, but they are better than blood sisters.
"So, you really let go of that kid Shen Jiarui?" Luo Xiu had seen Shen Jiarui dare to assassinate him for Luo Wuyan's sake, and after learning of her illness, he had stayed by her side with tenderness and care.
I thought their love was something precious and rare.
"You'd sacrifice me, your sister, for love, but I'm different. I can sacrifice my love for friendship. Men are nothing."
Luo Wuyan's words contained a hint of anger.
But that's also the truth.
Shen Jiarui chose family.
She chose friendship.
Neither of them firmly chose the other.
Perhaps in their eyes, love is not the most important thing, so how can there be any talk of who owes whom anything?
"You accepted your father's arrangement for you to marry that old man Steven?" Luo Xiu asked again, pursing his lips.
Luo Wuyan proudly raised her head and looked at Lu Zhiwei.
Lu Zhiwei's bright pupils narrowed slightly: "What's this about marrying Steven?"
Luo Wuyan never mentioned it to her.
She thought that after her engagement with Owen fell through, Old Master Luo would give up the idea of arranging another marriage for her.
She was probably naive.
“It’s alright, Weiwei. There’s nothing wrong with marrying an old man. Who knows when he’ll pass away? Once I inherit his power and wealth, I can better protect you and An’an in the United States.”
Luo Wuyan pretended to be nonchalant, with a carefree smile on her face, and hooked her arm around Lu Zhiwei's shoulder, signaling her not to panic.
Lu Zhiwei shook off Luo Wuyan's hand and held it tightly in her own: "You are not allowed to marry her. I will find a way to help you get rid of this marriage."
“It’s no use. I disobeyed my father and failed to drug An’an. He’s determined to take me back. I was prepared for that.” Luo Wuyan shrugged.
Shen Jinmo stood behind and silently watched this scene.
His slightly furrowed brows remained furrowed.
He felt a genuine sense of respect for Luo Wuyan.
Compared to how good Luo Wuyan is to Lu Zhiwei, what is he?
"Luo Xiu, do you have any way to stop this marriage?" Lu Zhiwei turned her gaze to Luo Xiu.
Even though she loathed him to the extreme and didn't want to look at him again.
But for the sake of shame, she was willing to bow her head.
“Yes, you’d better beg me.” Luo Xiu curled his lips into a playful smile.
It was just a lighthearted joke.
Lu Zhiwei replied without hesitation, "Okay, I beg you."
Luo Wuyan did so much for her.
Lu Zhiwei was incredibly arrogant and haughty.
Yet she could blurt out a soft plea to him.
A hint of jealousy flashed in Luo Xiu's eyes. "You can't just ask me for my money with words. You have to kiss me to show your sincerity."
