"I didn't expect to run into you here. What are you doing here?"
Wen Lu looked at Wen Moyuan with a cold gaze and spoke in a stiff and distant tone.
Wen Moyuan was slightly taken aback when he met Wen Lu's gaze. He hadn't expected Wen Lu to treat him this way when they met again.
However, he didn't mind. He quickly regained his smiling demeanor and continued to appear gentle and refined.
"I came here to try my luck, wondering if I would run into you. I didn't expect to be so lucky, and sure enough, I did run into you here."
As he spoke, Wen Moyuan placed the fruit basket in front of Wen Lu and spoke to her in a gentle tone.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect my mother to hit you."
Hearing Wen Moyuan apologize to him, Wen Lu was somewhat incredulous. He felt that the Wen family members were not quite right in the head.
"Sorry? Why are you apologizing to me? Don't you blame my friend for hitting your mother's car and leaving her still missing?"
Wen Lu frowned as she looked at Wen Moyuan. She really couldn't understand this man. She was very curious about his thoughts. Could he really give up all his principles for Wen Lu?
Wen Lu looked at Wen Moyuan's silent expression and gave a cold smile. She really couldn't figure out what this man was thinking. He glanced at the bench next to him and walked towards it.
When Wen Moyuan saw Wen Lu sit down on the bench instead of turning around and leaving immediately, he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. He was genuinely afraid that Wen Lu would just turn around and leave.
Wen Moyuan seemed to have thought of how to answer Wen Lu, then walked to Wen Lu's side and sat down on the bench. He didn't dare to look at Wen Lu and spoke in a low voice.
"This matter might also be related to me. I was the one who refused his request to go see Su Yu, so she might be holding a grudge. I have no right to blame you!"
Hearing Wen Moyuan's explanation, Wen Lu couldn't help but chuckle. She turned to look at Wen Moyuan, then turned back to gaze into the distance, speaking in a deep and cold tone.
“I don’t want to know what your mother’s motives were in wanting to kill me, and I don’t want to know what you were thinking when you came here. I just want to know, do you know that they wanted to kill me? They said it was to treat my heart disease, but that’s not what they really meant. How much do you know about this?”
When Wen Moyuan heard Wen Lu ask him this question, he suddenly stood up from the bench and looked at Wen Lu in disbelief.
"Impossible, how could this be? Weren't they always looking for the best doctors for you? I even specifically asked about this before. Seeing that your health wasn't getting better, I wanted to find a more authoritative doctor for you from abroad. He even told me that he had invited a doctor who came back from the research institute, named Ling He..."
Looking at the bewildered and angry expression on Wen Moyuan's face, Wen Lu was certain that Wen Moyuan really didn't know about this matter. It seemed that only Wen Zhengnan and Chu Qin knew about it.
"You don't need to doubt what I say. If you don't believe me, you can investigate my medical records over the years, and you can also contact the doctors who treated me. I've always had two sets of medical records, one of the real ones and one of the fake ones, which I used to appease Grandpa..."
At this point, Wen Lu gave a self-deprecating smile. She thought that the original owner might have been fantasizing about her loving parents coming down from the sky to save her when she was dying.
Looking at the smile on Wen Lu's face, Wen Moyuan suddenly felt a sense of panic. He squatted down in front of Wen Lu and reached out to touch her, but his hand remained frozen in place, and he hesitated to touch her.
Wen Lu raised her eyes and looked at Wen Moyuan, who was squatting in front of her. She gave Wen Moyuan a serene smile, knowing that this was the way Wen Moyuan liked and knew her best.
"Brother, if only you had come back before that night, we could still be siblings. But it's too late now, and I can't go back."
"No, it's okay, Lulu, your brother is back. As long as you're willing, your brother will always be your knight and will always be by your side to protect you!"
Upon hearing Wen Lu's words, a string in Wen Moyuan's heart snapped instantly. He didn't know why, but he felt that in that instant, Wen Lu had completely left his world...
Hearing the sounds outside, Wang Jinyu rushed out of the ward, shielded Wen Lu in his arms, took a step back, and then took Wen Lu back to Gu Yao's ward.
Yan Luo stood aside and glanced at Wen Moyuan's dejected appearance, without a trace of sympathy in his eyes. Although he didn't know what role Wen Moyuan played in raising the useless Wen Lu, he felt disgusted just looking at Wen Moyuan.
Back in the ward, Wen Lu took a glass of water from Wang Jinyu, took a sip, and then handed the glass back to Wang Jinyu. She then picked up Gu Yao's medical record from the bedside table, looked at it for a while, and then looked up at Yan Luo.
Just as Wen Lu was about to speak, she met Yan Luo's gaze and her brows furrowed involuntarily. For some reason, Yan Luo's gaze towards her while she was crying seemed a little strange.
"What are you doing? Why are you looking at me like that?"
“Wen Lu, if you’re in a bad mood, just say so. You don’t have to pretend. I know you’re completely disappointed in the Wen family, so…”
Yan Luo wanted to continue speaking, but when he met the cold gazes of Wen Lu and Wang Jinyu, he stopped instantly and couldn't utter a single word.
"No, why are you two looking at me like that? Wen Lu has lived in the Wen family for so many years. It's normal for her to be sad after the Wen family treats her like this. Did I say something wrong?"
Yan Luo carefully examined Wen Lu's expression and, sure enough, she didn't see any sadness on Wen Lu's face. Could it be that she had misunderstood something?
Looking at Yan Luo's silly expression, Wen Lu casually sat down by Gu Yao's bedside, hung the medical record back in its original place, and spoke in a light tone.
"If you were me, would you still be sad after going through all this?"
Hearing Wen Lu's question, Yan Luo really thought about it seriously for a moment. He nodded, then quickly shook his head.
"I might be sad, but I won't be sad about leaving them. I'll feel relieved to be able to leave..."
