Although Wen Ya had arranged for people to clean the courtyard house beforehand, Qian Duoduo still instructed Peng Fei and one of his bodyguards to return to the courtyard house first to make some preparations, especially ensuring that Qian Duoduo's work items were not missing. Meanwhile, Qian Duoduo stayed at the hospital and methodically packed up various items. After all the discharge procedures were properly completed, Qian Duoduo personally led Lu Yuan towards the courtyard house.
The courtyard house had already undergone a thorough and meticulous inspection by national security personnel, leaving no corner unchecked. Despite this, Qian Duoduo still had even greater expectations for the days to come.
Over the past few days, although Qian Duoduo was in the hospital, Wen Ya often brought the children to the hospital to keep Lu Yuan company. However, the hospital was ultimately not a suitable place to stay and play for a long time. Therefore, when everyone decided to return to the courtyard house, Qian Duoduo made a special trip to the Lu family's old house.
Qian Duoduo was playing happily with the four adorable children at the Lu family's house. Their laughter echoed in the air, brightening the otherwise gloomy atmosphere of the Lu family compound. Lu Lang and his grandmother stood by the bed in the study, watching Qian Duoduo playing with the children below. The grandmother sighed and said, "Yuanzi is like this now, what will become of him in the future?"
Lu Lang shook his head helplessly. Yuan Zi had spent countless hours working on this intercontinental ballistic missile to deter America's provocations. He and his research team had completed more than ten years of research that America had been working on. This was why the country's top leadership valued Lu Yuan. However, Lu Yuan had only just fallen into a coma and was diagnosed by the hospital as potentially becoming a vegetable. Some people at the research institute were already getting restless, which was what made Lu Lang feel the most distressed.
Time flies, and before long it was dark. Qian Duoduo wasn't in a hurry to leave. After reading books and telling stories to the children, she kissed each of them and said with a smile, "Mommy is going to see Daddy tomorrow, so I won't be home. I'm giving you a task: take good care of Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma, and also Grandpa and Grandma. You have to do it, okay?" Although they were only a little over a year old, they were already four very proper little men.
After she had put the children to sleep, she had just stepped out of the study when she saw the nanny standing at the door, who said, "The old man would like to invite you to the study."
Qian Duoduo nodded and watched her leave. Then she went to the study, knocked on the door, and after hearing "Come in," she pushed the door open and entered. Inside, besides Lu Lang and Old Madam Lu, there were Lu Yiheng, Lu Yijian, and Lu Jiang and Lu Cheng, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
Qian Duoduo saw Lu Lang point to the empty stool and said, "Duoduo, sit down first."
Qian Duoduo sat obediently in the chair. Lu Lang first turned to look at Lu Yijian beside him. After exchanging a glance, Lu Lang nodded slightly, then shifted his gaze back to Qian Duoduo and slowly said, "Duoduo, seeing Yuanzi in this state makes us all feel terrible. But we're really at a loss as to what to do. I remember those health-preserving pills you took out before. Would those things help Yuanzi in his current condition?"
Qian Duoduo shook her head slightly, a helpless look on her face, and replied, "It's useless. Although the health-preserving pills are effective, they mainly target physical problems. However, Lu Yuan's situation this time is completely different from injury, illness, or even poisoning. He suffered brain damage, and we don't yet know the exact severity of this damage."
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured on everyone in the room, and for a moment everyone fell silent. No one could think of an effective solution, and the whole scene was unusually heavy and oppressive.
At this moment, Lu Jiang, who had been silent until now, finally couldn't help but speak up, looking at Qian Duoduo with anticipation and asking, "Duoduo, since you were able to get such a miraculous health-preserving pill, you must have some extraordinary connections, right? Is there really no way to save Yuanzi?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo lowered her head in thought. After a moment, she raised her head and said firmly, "To be honest, I don't have a clear clue right now. But please rest assured, I will do my best to find a solution. As for whether I will succeed, we'll only know after we try." A resolute glint flashed in her eyes as she finished speaking.
Lu Jiang immediately said, "So that's why you said you wanted to go back to the courtyard house?"
Qian Duoduo nodded, but did not reveal her solution.
Back at the courtyard house, Qian Duoduo didn't even have time to rest before going to Lu Yuan's room. After changing his IV drip, she washed up, got into bed, and held hands with Lu Yuan again, anticipating his unconscious intimacy.
The second time she got up, she looked at her hands in disappointment. Why had she left? Why hadn't a miracle happened? After a moment of stunned silence, Qian Duoduo still kissed Lu Yuan on the cheek, changed her clothes, hurried into the kitchen, tied on her apron, and began preparing breakfast. Before returning yesterday, Sister-in-law Gao had said that there were many people here, and she wasn't needed much for childcare, so she wanted to come back with her, even if it was just to help with cooking.
Qian Duoduo smiled and politely declined Sister Gao's offer. Because of Lu Yuan's current predicament, the small courtyard was already packed with people. Besides Qian Duoduo and Lu Yuan, there were four other security personnel from the National Security Department, plus Peng Fei and the two bodyguards Qian Duoduo had brought. The courtyard was practically overflowing. Even so, everyone diligently performed their duties, silently protecting this warm little courtyard, hoping for Lu Yuan's speedy recovery.
Peng Fei made breakfast for Hu Da, Zhang Tian, and the four people from Guoan, but the smell of Qian Duoduo making a simple stir-fried noodle dish in the kitchen almost made them drool.
Not far from the kitchen, Hu Da, Zhang Tian, and two bodyguards, who had previously visited Pengcheng, stood there calmly. In stark contrast, the four men from the National Security Department stared intently at Peng Fei with resentful eyes, their expressions practically screaming "You did a terrible job!"
Faced with this scene, Peng Fei simply smiled, appearing quite calm and composed. After all, his boss's culinary skills were a direct inheritance from his mother! He himself was just tinkering around here; how could he compare to her? Thinking this, Peng Fei finally said simply, "Having something to eat is already quite good. If you really don't want to eat my cooking, you can always cook for yourselves."
Upon hearing this, the four members of the Guoan team exchanged bewildered glances. After all, everyone was usually very busy with work, so where would they find the extra time to practice their culinary skills? For a moment, no one responded, and the scene fell into a brief silence.
