Chapter 601: Aunt Ji’s treatment is so painful
Lu Ning called Lu Xicheng, but no one answered.
When she heard the sounds coming from the treatment room, she became extremely anxious. Why didn't anyone answer the phone?
Lu Ning called several times, but no one answered.
With red eyes, she sent a message to Lu Xicheng: "Why is Aunt Ji's treatment so painful?"
Why didn’t Aunt Ji say anything?
Lu Ning waited outside alone for a long time until the treatment was over and the dean walked out of the treatment room.
When the dean saw Lu Ning, he was a little surprised: "You should know now, right?"
"Why is it so painful? Could it be that the people in Luxicheng didn't give you the complete solution to the poison?"
The dean shook his head. "It was so painful from the beginning, but Madam won't let us talk about it. This is the patient's request, and we can't go against it."
Lu Ning looked up into the ward and saw that Mrs. Ji had calmed down.
The dean said, "She's asleep and won't wake up until later."
Lu Ning didn't go in, for fear of waking up Mrs. Ji.
She covered her mouth and took a long time to calm down.
She looked at the dean and said, "Is there no way to alleviate this?"
"Yes, but Mr. Lu Xicheng said it would affect the detoxification effect, so Madam refused."
Lu Ning turned her head to look at the sky outside and felt that the air was very cold.
During this period of time, she and Ji Chiqian knew nothing.
The dean sighed, "You were very busy during that time, so Madam didn't want to distract you with these things. She said that being able to continue living was good enough, and she didn't want you to be embarrassed and ask the Lu family for help."
Lu Ning felt so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.
Her eyes were red: "I know, don't tell her I know about this."
Since Mrs. Ji wanted to hide it, she pretended not to know.
Maybe Mrs. Ji didn't want to be sympathized with at this time.
Lu Ning left the treatment room and returned to the ward upstairs.
At this time, Lu Xicheng called back.
Lu Ning answered the phone immediately: "Hey, why didn't you tell me in the beginning?"
"This is the patient's privacy. I can't tell you. But now you know it, don't you? I'm a little disappointed that you came to me for someone else. But I'm also very happy that you came to me."
Lu Ning paused. "Is there really no way to avoid such pain while not affecting the detoxification effect?"
"Little sister, there aren't so many perfect things happening in this world. I think Madam Ji is actually quite open-minded. In this matter, I admire her choice."
Lu Ning was a little annoyed: "I will try to find a way to have the best of both worlds."
"Little sister, I didn't expect you to care so much about the Ji family. It really makes me jealous."
Lu Xicheng's voice became even colder.
Lu Ning held her phone tightly. "That's because when I was alone and helpless, they showed me kindness and care."
Lu Xicheng was silent for a moment: "If I could come back to support you and help you deal with Qin Xiang, would you be so kind to me?"
When Lu Ning heard this hypothesis, she fell silent.
Lu Ning said, "I don't want to answer this question."
She had once hoped for this possibility, but what did she get in the end?
Lu Xicheng's voice became much lower: "If you answer this question, I will have people research an antidote that is less painful. But the prerequisite is that you answer sincerely."
Lu Ning held the phone tightly in her hand.
She closed her eyes with difficulty, and heard Mrs. Ji's screams of pain.
She took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I don't know either."
"Yeah, we brothers didn't do our job well enough. It's our fault."
Lu Ning pursed her lips and asked, "How long will it take for your people to figure it out?"
"About half a year, testing is needed."
Lu Ning knew that there was no time limit for Mrs. Ji's detoxification process. It depended on the detoxification treatment situation, so Mrs. Ji's treatment would take more than half a year.
Mrs. Ji persisted for so long despite having such painful information. She couldn't imagine how she managed to do it.
She couldn't bear to see such a day for even a single day.
She wiped her tears and said, "What if I asked you to figure it out within a month?"
"Little sister, this is a bit difficult. After all, there is a lot of research on the island, and we can't delay the research of so many people for one person."
Lu Ning said calmly, "What are your conditions?"
After she finished speaking, the other end of the phone fell into silence.
Finally, Lu Xicheng spoke up: "I hope that we can go back to the way things were before, that you treat me like a brother, and that we can rebuild our relationship. Is that okay?"
When Lu Ning heard this condition, she felt a pain in her temples as if it were being pulled.
She subconsciously recalled the scene in her previous life when she was lying on the operating table, having her kidney removed by Lu Xicheng, and having him cut a scar on her face for an experiment.
She couldn't help feeling disgusted and resisted.
But when she thought of Mrs. Ji's painful expression just now, she finally overcame her fear.
Lu Ning said, "I'll try, but I can't do it the same way as before all at once."
"That's enough. Let's take our time. I'm not in a hurry."
Lu Xicheng's voice was a little happy: "Little sister, I don't mean to threaten you. After all, I haven't done anything to hurt you this time. But I'm sorry that I have ignored you all these years. I didn't know that you were having such a hard time in the Lu family. I am also responsible."
Lu Ning pursed her lips: "All this is in the past."
"Well, I know it's all in the past. Mom and Dad's lawsuit is over, so we siblings can start over."
Lu Ning responded calmly, "I don't want anyone else to know about this."
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. This is just a little secret between us siblings."
Lu Ning curled her lips: "Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up."
"Wait, little sister, can you call me Third Brother from now on?"
Lu Ning looked at the scenery outside the window and said, "Third brother."
"Yeah, okay. I'm usually busy with work and don't even have my phone with me, but you can always send me a message and I'll reply when I see it."
"good."
Lu Ning hung up the phone after she finished speaking.
As long as it can make Aunt Ji suffer less, this kind of thing is nothing.
Half an hour later, Mrs. Ji returned to the ward in a wheelchair.
Mrs. Ji's face was a little pale. She pretended to be calm and said, "My face looks bad after every treatment, but it's no big deal. I feel much better."
When Lu Ning heard this, her heart ached instantly.
She forced herself to help Madam Ji to the bed: "Well, I guess it won't be long before you get better."
"Of course, we'll go shopping then. I've always wanted to have a daughter, and now I've finally got my wish."
Madam Ji pulled Lu Ning aside and said, "I'll take you to join the sisterhood when the time comes. Although they are all rich ladies and noble ladies, they can all become your connections."
When Lu Ning heard these words, she felt very uncomfortable.
Madam Ji suddenly looked at Lu Ning: "What's wrong with you? Why are your eyes red?"
