Chapter 5 It’s best to draw a clear line from now on
The ward was very quiet.
Lu Ning opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't say a word. Language seemed pale at this moment.
After all, she had explained it countless times before, but her brother would never believe it.
Lu Nanfeng's throat moved slightly, and he finally let go of his hand.
He looked at Lu Ning disappointedly: "If you continue to be stubborn, I won't be able to protect you when Big Brother comes back. Think about it carefully."
Lu Nanfeng said this and left.
Lu Ning seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and leaned back against the head of the bed.
There was self-mockery in her eyes, what else could she think of?
Do you want to keep your head down and try to please them cautiously like in your previous life, only to be kicked out of your home and locked up in a mental hospital where you die miserably?
She didn't want to.
"Take it!"
A gauze-wrapped ice pack appeared in front of her.
Lu Ning took the ice pack and applied it to her swollen cheek. She secretly glanced at the man next to her and whispered, "Thank you for what you did just now."
His voice was cold: "Why don't you explain?"
Lu Ning lowered her head and smiled bitterly: "Believe it or not, I have explained it many times before and even produced evidence, but they didn't believe me and just thought I was lying."
The room fell into silence for a moment.
Lu Ning didn't want to explain too much. Many outsiders didn't believe what she said and just thought she was disobedient.
“It’s hard not to believe.”
Lu Ning was stunned. Did he really believe what he said?
Ji Chiqian took a step forward and put his hand on her forehead: "The temperature has dropped."
Lu Ning was stunned. His hands felt a little cold and very comfortable.
She feels much better now and is not so sick.
She looked at his wrist: "Is the scar on your hand also from a car accident?"
Ji Chiqian's hand suddenly stopped and he quickly withdrew it.
He took off the empty IV bottle and replied after a long pause: "Yes, it was a car accident."
He rested his hands on the edge of the table, his back facing Lu Ning.
His profile was against the light, and his expression was a little unclear.
"I have it too, on my leg."
Lu Ning pulled her skirt up a bit: "Here, doesn't it look like your scar?"
Ji Chiqian turned around and saw her slender legs and fair skin, which made the scar on her thigh stand out.
It's just that her skirt seemed to be lifted a little high, and she was exposed.
He took a look and quickly turned his head away: "Kid, don't lift your skirt in front of a man."
"But you're a doctor."
Ji Chiqian's throat moved slightly, but he was also a man.
Didn't anyone teach her this?
He then said, "This scar can be healed, so why not restore it?"
The expression on Lu Ning's face faded a little, and she felt a wave of pain in her heart.
Because the third brother Lu Xicheng said that this scar represents the existence of her parents, and he would have to take the time to help her recover personally in the future.
She believed it.
But in the end, Lu Xicheng looked at the scar on her leg with disgust, saying that he hated the scar and would never help her heal it.
It was said that she was responsible for the death of her parents.
She said the scar was her mark, that she had killed her parents, and that she would remember it for the rest of her life.
She was devastated at the time and even thought that she had killed her parents. She became more humble and fawning towards her brothers.
When Lu Ning thought about the past, she felt so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.
But she couldn't bring herself to say the reason now, so she asked, "What about you? Why don't you get treatment?"
"I'm a man, it doesn't matter. It's better for the little girl to get some treatment."
Lu Ning forced a hard smile: "Let's talk about it later."
Seeing her lowering her head, Ji Chiqian didn't say much.
He sat next to me and turned on the TV.
Lu Ning noticed that the screen on TV was actually a live broadcast of a game, and it was the game that her sixth brother Lu Liu was participating in at the moment.
Sixth Brother missed Qin Xiang's banquet just because of this competition.
But in the end he lost to the young master of the Ji family in North City.
Lu Ning recalled that in her previous life, her sixth brother Lu Liu lost a game and was severely mocked by the opponent.
After the sixth brother came back, he was so angry that he reorganized the family team.
Second brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, sixth brother, and her.
Even if we failed in the qualifiers, there is still a resurrection match.
They relied on the resurrection match to fight back, and finally faced the young master of the Ji family in North City in the national competition.
At that time, she spent a lot of time every day practicing games and studying the characteristics of the members of the North City Ji family team, so that she could beat the opponent during the competition.
Qin Xiang is not in the competition game.
Because Qin Xiang's gaming talent is not high, he can only be a substitute and cannot play in the game.
So she likes the feeling of fighting with her brothers in the game, without outsiders disturbing their family.
She even neglected to study for the college entrance examination for this e-sports competition.
But after they won a crucial game and the championship was within their grasp, the brothers called a halt to the game.
She was substituted and Qin Xiang came on.
In the end they won the game and became national champions.
The brothers took Qin Xiang and stood on the first place podium, stepping on the fruits of her hard work.
Qin Xiang held her trophy in her arms, stood among her brothers, and smiled happily.
Lu Ning looked at the game screen on TV, and her heart seemed to have a hole that could not be mended.
"Why are you crying? This isn't a soap opera, is it worth being so moved?"
Lu Ning came back to her senses and wiped the tears from her face. She had just recalled things from her previous life and hadn't been able to control her emotions.
A piece of paper appeared in front of her, and the man's fingers were long and beautiful.
She took the paper and looked at him a little embarrassedly: "Can you play this game?"
"Kid, the most important thing for you right now is to prepare for the exam, not play games!"
Ji Chiqian sat on the chair, leaning lazily, not looking at her, but paying attention to the game.
Lu Ning also looked at the game screen and said seriously: "Team Lu Tian will lose."
The Lutian Team, which is the team that Sixth Brother is in.
Ji Chiqian's lips curled slightly, and his voice was neither hurried nor slow: "It seems that you have good taste."
After the game, Team Lu Tian lost without a doubt.
Lu Ning saw on the live broadcast screen that Sixth Brother Lu Liu had an extremely ugly expression on his face and even smashed the keyboard.
Sixth brother has always had such a bad temper.
She was actually a little happy to see her sixth brother lose the game.
When Sixth Brother comes back, she will definitely reorganize the team. This time, she will not play for the Lu family.
She wants to work hard for herself, become a professional player, and then earn money to go to college and support herself.
She no longer wanted to have her living allowance cut off at every turn, as a threat to keep her in line, or even to give up a first-tier university and go to a second-tier university where Qin Xiang was.
She needs to be financially independent to escape the Lu family's control.
Professional game players are not favored by the business community now, but after live streaming becomes popular next year, professional players will be able to make money through live streaming.
For her, with her experience in gaming in her previous life, this was the fastest and least-effortful way to make money.
Lu Ning made a secret decision.
After the live broadcast of the game ended, Ji Chiqian looked back, walked to her side and took out the needle for the IV drip.
He took a cotton swab and pressed it on the back of Lu Ning's hand: "The medicine is on the table, you can take it and leave."
"Thank you!"
Lu Ning took the medicine and left the infirmary.
As soon as she left, a young man walked in and said nonchalantly, "Brother Qian, it's rare to see you act like a hero and save a beautiful girl, but this girl doesn't have a very good reputation in school. She's been criticized a lot on the campus forum. Don't let her fool you."
Ji Chiqian leaned back in his chair, looking less distant and more lazy.
He said casually: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"I'm curious, why did you choose to be the school doctor at this high school? You didn't even go to watch Jimo's game. He was so distracted during the game that he was looking for you, and he was almost ambushed by that kid from the Lu family. Tell me the reason, and I'll leave right away."
Ji Chiqian took off his mask, rolled up his sleeves, and revealed the ugly scar.
When Gu Zifeng saw this, his expression darkened: "After so many years, you still haven't let it go? That car accident had nothing to do with you! No, this girl couldn't be..."
"Shut up!"
Ji Chiqian closed his eyes to rest and ignored the people around him.
