Chapter 183 The Young Lady Cannot Lower Her Head
The ward area of Lu's Hospital was brightly lit.
Meng Anran walked into the elevator in high heels and pressed the button for the top floor with her fingertips.
When the elevator door opened, Zhang Tao was already waiting with his people.
"Lu Qingcheng is awake?"
"Just woke up not long ago, Lu Yi is inside." Zhang Tao whispered, "But there are others."
Meng Anran raised an eyebrow: "Who?"
"Lu Heng."
A hint of interest flashed in her eyes. She raised her hand to signal the bodyguard to stay outside and walked towards the ward alone.
Through the glass window on the door, she saw Lu Yi standing beside the bed, while Lu Heng was sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face.
Lu Qingcheng's weak voice faintly rang out: "Big Brother, Second Brother, I really didn't know that I was the illegitimate daughter of the Lu family. Considering that I am half-blooded with you, can you help me?"
Meng Anran sneered and pushed the door open.
The three of them turned their heads at the same time.
Lu Heng's eyes darkened, and he asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"
"Come and watch the show." Meng Anran leaned gracefully against the door, her eyes sweeping over the pale-faced Lu Qingcheng lying on the hospital bed. "She even called me to notify me of her admission. Wouldn't it seem unkind of me if I don't come?"
Lu Yi smiled meaningfully: "I didn't realize you were so humane."
"Hmph." Meng Anran sneered, slowly walked to the bedside, and suddenly reached out to pinch Lu Qingcheng's chin, "I really blamed you last time. You were so bold that you were involved in the drugging."
Lu Qingcheng's pupils suddenly contracted. Recalling Meng Anran's terror, her fingers unconsciously clenched the sheets, "It, it has nothing to do with me..."
Lu Yi stepped forward and said, "Let go. This is a hospital, not Yandu Hotel."
Meng Anran let go of her hand, straightened up, turned her head and shot a sharp glare at Lu Yi, "I haven't even come to settle the score with you yet, but you're scolding me first. You gave her the drug, right?"
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows, "What drug? What reason do I have to attack Qin Mu?"
Meng Anran curled the corners of her lips, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. "Do you still need to find a reason to do things?"
"Tsk..." Lu Yi avoided Meng Anran's sight, his attitude casual: "I really don't know what's so good about that kid that he deserves your protection like this."
Meng Anran continued bluntly, "Because when you Lu family members were targeting me, he was the only one who protected me."
Lu Yi choked, his eyes trembled, and he rarely closed his mouth without refuting.
Lu Heng, who had nothing to do with the matter, only then realized what had happened on the birthday party. He stood up abruptly and looked at Lu Qingcheng fiercely: "Did you drug Qin Mu?"
Lu Qingcheng's face turned pale and she shook her head in panic: "Brother, no, I..."
Meng Anran slapped Lu Qingcheng in the face. "Still trying to quibble? Do you think I can't find any evidence just because Lu Yi is backing you up?"
She came here to interrogate Lu Yi face to face because she already knew the truth in her heart and had never thought of sending Lu Yi in to meet Lu Zhong and his son, so she came simply to warn him.
If Lu Qingcheng refused to admit it or even tried to distance herself from the matter, she wouldn't mind making Lu Qingcheng suffer some other consequences.
Lu Heng glanced at Lu Qingcheng coldly, without showing any distress, and turned to question Lu Yi, "Were you involved in this matter as well?"
Lu Yi shrugged, looking nonchalant: "Who knows what she's going crazy about?"
No one noticed the sinister look that flashed across his eyes when he turned away.
He asked someone to buy the medicine, and he also gave it to Lu Qingcheng.
Although Meng Anran lived in the Meng family and acknowledged that group of family members, Qin Mu was her greatest confidence and reliance.
Only by provoking the relationship between Meng Anran and Qin Mu, his good sister will come back to him obediently!
The brothers have been feuding for so many years, how could Lu Heng not see whether Lu Yi was involved?
He also wanted to take Meng Anran away from those worthless ants, but he did not agree to start with Qin Mu.
The eldest daughter is proud, stubborn and tough. She stepped on her bottom line right from the start. If she is pushed into a corner, she will bite.
Meng Anran watched the two brothers singing the same tune with cold eyes, too lazy to pay attention. She took out a transparent evidence bag from her bag, and inside was the button: "Lu Qingcheng, can you explain why my brother's button appeared in the Lu family?"
Lu Qingcheng trembled all over, tears welling up in her eyes: "I, I really don't know..."
"Don't know?" Meng Anran suddenly slammed her phone on the bedside table, and a surveillance video was displayed on the screen.
It can be clearly seen in the picture that Lu Qingcheng and Meng Chenghong met in a coffee shop the day before yesterday afternoon.
Lu Heng grabbed his phone and took a look at it. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression became increasingly gloomy. "Have you also contacted Meng Chenghong privately?"
"I, I'm not..." Lu Qingcheng stammered incoherently, and suddenly grabbed Lu Heng's arm, "Brother, listen to my explanation!"
Lu Heng shook her hand off in disgust and said coldly, "Get lost."
The atmosphere in the ward was tense.
At this moment, Lu Qingcheng's monitor suddenly issued a shrill alarm, her breathing suddenly became rapid, and her whole body began to twitch.
"Doctor! Call a doctor!" Lu Yi pressed the emergency call button, but looked at Meng Anran meaningfully.
Meng Anran watched this farce with cold eyes. When the medical staff rushed in, she leaned over and whispered in Lu Yi's ear, "Do you think you can get away with it by pretending to be sick?"
Lu Yi sneered, "Who knows? Maybe she was really scared."
Meng Anran walked out of the ward, her high heels making crisp sounds on the marble floor. She had just pressed the elevator button when her phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a message from Qin Mu: [Just received news that Lu Zhong’s case will be sentenced tomorrow.]
The corners of her lips curled slightly, and her fingertips tapped lightly on the screen: [Duan Xi's drama should be much more exciting than this.]
The elevator door opened, and she was about to step in when Lu Heng's voice suddenly came from behind her: "An Ran."
She turned around and saw Lu Heng standing at the end of the corridor, wearing a well-ironed suit and with a stern expression.
"Mr. Lu, do you have any other advice?" She leaned lazily against the elevator door.
Lu Heng took a few steps closer and lowered his voice: "The Lu family's troubles have all been resolved, come back and live here."
"Yes?" Meng Anran raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Mr. Lu, that's funny. I reminded you many years ago that I'm no longer a member of the Lu family."
Lu Heng stared at her beautiful face, his eyes growing darker. "You don't have to be surnamed Lu, but you shouldn't waste your time on insignificant people. I've warned you many times, a young lady can't bow her head. Others must always accommodate you, not you."
This is what Lu Heng said to Meng Anran when she was three years old.
The memory had long been faded away by the subsequent coldness, ruthlessness and bloody fighting. Now when this sentence was mentioned again, Meng Anran's heart suddenly trembled.
Suddenly, some fragments came to my mind.
Those beautiful moments between her and Lu Heng should not have existed.
