Lu Qinghua rushed over with a thermos. Today was the last day. It seemed that she had overthought things that day. Lu Qingquan didn't have the strength to harm anyone now, so he could only lie in bed and wait to die.
She arrived a little late. In the morning, she took Yin Yin to her dance class. The teacher liked Yin Yin very much and gave her some individual tutoring. She came back late, and after eating and tidying up, she was an hour later than usual.
Lu Qinghua will stop sending gifts after today. She wouldn't even give Lu Qingquan a concentrated soup cube. Given Lu Qingquan's current health, he might not even be able to get off the operating table tomorrow and could be taken to the hospital for a coffin.
However, the hospital bed was empty. Lu Qingquan was not there. Lu Qinghua thought he had gone for a walk in the garden, so she put down her thermos and went to look for him. But she couldn't find him anywhere in the garden, and a sense of unease welled up in her heart.
Lu Qinghua ran to ask the nurse, but the nurse didn't know either.
Who came this morning?
The nurse thought for a moment and said, "Your mother came by, but she only stayed for a short while before leaving."
Lu Qinghua searched other places, and the nurses helped search as well. They searched the entire hospital, but Lu Qingquan seemed to have vanished into thin air. The nurses were getting anxious and ran to the security guards to check the surveillance footage.
“He left the hospital an hour ago. Look, this is the one in the wheelchair, but he’s not wearing a hospital gown. Where is he going?” The security guard found Lu Qingquan’s video.
Lu Qinghua's heart sank. He was scheduled to have surgery tomorrow, but this bastard had run off without a word. He was definitely up to no good. But where was he going?
Suddenly remembering He Hongxia, who was the only one who had come that morning, Lu Qinghua thought that she might have talked to Lu Qingquan about something. He called He Hongxia and asked her bluntly, "What did you talk to Lu Qingquan about this morning?"
He Hongxia was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, "Why are you being so fierce? You have no manners! Who are you talking to!"
“Lu Qingquan ran away. Why would he run away for no reason? You must have said something to him. Think about it carefully, otherwise your son will die out there and no one will collect his body.”
He Hongxia was startled. "I didn't say anything, I just chatted casually for a bit."
"What have you been talking about?" Lu Qinghua demanded.
"When your brother asked about your eldest cousin, I told him the truth. Your eldest cousin now drives a rickshaw and lives in a mansion, living a more carefree life than anyone else. That's all."
Lu Qinghua frowned. Why was he asking about her eldest cousin for no reason? She demanded, "What else did you ask?"
He Hongxia thought for a moment and said, "Your brother asked where your eldest cousin's mansion is."
"You said it?"
“I already told you. It’s not like it’s anything shameful. What’s wrong with saying it?” He Hongxia said dismissively. It was just an address; why couldn’t she say it?
Lu Qinghua was speechless. There was really nothing she couldn't say, but for some reason, she felt uneasy, as if something terrible was about to happen. But what could Lu Qingquan do?
He's too weak to even walk, and now he can't even handle a fish.
Lu Qinghua hung up the phone and prepared to go home. Perhaps Lu Qingquan had just gone out for a walk and she was overthinking it. But halfway there, she became more and more uneasy and called Lin Shufang's house, but the call didn't go through.
Lu Qinghua's heart sank. He abandoned his bicycle, hailed a taxi on the roadside, and lied to the driver, saying that there was a sick person at home. The driver was kind and stepped on the gas all the way, arriving at the entrance of the community in less than ten minutes.
