Xu Rubao ignored Xu Ziyang, sent a message to Chen Wei, and prepared to return to school.
She had eaten some fruit in the private room and was still a little hungry.
She hesitated for a moment, then decided to find something to eat nearby, at least to fill her stomach before returning to school.
Otherwise, once I get back to school, there won't be any food left in the cafeteria at this time.
She strolled around the neighborhood for a bit and saw a food stall, where she ordered stir-fried rice noodles.
At this time, there weren't many people eating. About ten minutes later, her stir-fried rice noodles were served.
She had only taken a few bites when she suddenly heard someone call her name.
She turned her head and was surprised to see Lu Mingyu.
"Ru Bao, is that really you? I thought I was seeing things."
Lu Mingyu pulled out a chair and sat down directly next to her.
He saw that she had only ordered one dish of stir-fried rice noodles, so he asked the waiter to bring over the menu and ordered a few more dishes.
"Ru Bao, you're too thin. You need to eat more. How can you manage without meat?"
Xu Rubao saw that he had already sat down, so she didn't say anything more.
Luckily, this isn't a school, so no one will see us and it doesn't matter.
She looked at Lu Mingyu and thought of Lu Jingheng.
Lu Mingyu ordered a dish of braised pork ribs, and just then the ribs arrived. He picked up a piece and put it in her bowl, then noticed that Ru Bao was looking at him.
He straightened his back. "Ru Bao, eat some ribs."
Xu Rubao withdrew her gaze. She didn't stand on ceremony; the ribs looked delicious.
After finishing a piece of pork rib, she took a sip of water and said, "Lu, there's something I'd like to ask you."
Lu Mingyu nodded. "Ru Bao, we're all friends. Why are you still calling me 'Classmate Lu'? You can just call me by my name, or you can call me 'Brother Yu'. Just tell me what you need."
Lu Mingyu savored the nickname "Brother Yu," finding it rather pleasant to hear, and looked forward to hearing it from Ru Bao's mouth.
"Lu Mingyu, I've heard that Lu Jingheng, the eldest son of the Lu family, is not expected to live past thirty. Is this rumor true?"
Lu Mingyu was waiting for her to call him Brother Yu, but he didn't expect her to call him by his full name.
Sure enough, she has a strong personality.
However, he did not expect that Ru Bao would ask about his elder brother.
He frowned slightly. "Ru Bao, why are you suddenly interested in my brother's affairs? Do you know him?"
My older brother is a very low-key person and he rarely appears in the news.
In the news, at most only his name appears.
"I was just asking out of curiosity. If it's inconvenient for you to say, that's fine too."
After saying that, Xu Rubao felt a little guilty and quickly picked up another piece of pork rib.
She didn't want to tell Lu Mingyu that she knew Lu Jingheng, nor did she want to lie to him, so she simply didn't answer the question.
“My brother’s health is indeed not very good. I don’t know the specific reason, but I remember when I was little, my uncle hired many famous doctors to treat him. However, the rumor that he won’t live past thirty is definitely false. I don’t believe it, and I don’t know who was so bored as to spread it.”
Upon hearing Lu Mingyu's words, Xu Rubao suddenly felt uneasy.
That time, when she took Lu Jingheng's pulse, she noticed that his pulse was different.
However, he managed to fool them.
Now, thinking about it carefully, he probably just didn't want her to know.
So, what exactly is wrong with Lu Jingheng's health? Was he really poisoned?
The more Xu Rubao thought about it, the more uneasy she felt; she didn't want anything to happen to him.
