Looking down at Shi Wan lying on the bed, Lu Jingyan reached out and touched her cheek, gently stroking the corner of her eye with his thumb.
The discomfort emanating from her body made Shi Wan tremble slightly with pain. Lu Jingyan sat on the bed and held Shi Wan tightly. Her sweat soaked his shirt, and the dampness on his body made his throat tighten, and he didn't say anything.
He regretted leaving her alone in the private room and regretted not sending more people to protect her.
At this moment, his brows were furrowed deeply, and his lips were pressed tightly together. He imagined the pain and torment she had endured alone, and his heart was filled with unspeakable self-blame and guilt.
Lu Jingyan's voice became hoarse and low, "Where is Ji Chu!"
"Coming, coming, Lao Lu, let go of Miss Shi so I can do the examination." Ji Chu, carrying a medicine box, was called over by Chu Ningxuan with a phone call and was now standing at the door panting.
Seeing Lu Jingyan holding Shi Wan tightly, like a wild beast protecting its cub, Chu Ningxuan and Lu Chuchu pulled Lu Jingyan away a little so that Ji Chu could examine Shi Wan.
Under the dim, warm light in the room, everyone stared nervously at the weak girl on the bed.
Fearing that Ji Chu might say something that would drive Lu Jingyan crazy, Lu Jingyan was standing beside him.
Standing next to Chu Ningxuan, Lu Chuchu glanced at Lu Jingyan, nudged Chu Ningxuan with her elbow, and leaned over to ask in a low voice, "Brother Xuan, when did my brother and Miss Shi start dating?"
After Lu Jingyan rushed into the room like a madman, he held Shi Wan tightly, and even when Ji Chu came in to do an examination, he didn't let go. Anyone with eyes could see what kind of relationship they had.
"Ahem... Your brother had a crush on her for years and only recently won her over."
Lu Chuchu was shocked. Her older brother usually didn't date, but when he did, it was extraordinary.
After receiving the news, Ji Meng left the wrap-up work of the banquet to her assistant and hurriedly went to her room.
Upon entering, one sees Lu Jingyan holding Shi Wan tightly on the bed, while Ji Chu examines her. Also present are Chu Ningxuan and Lu Chuchu, who stand like elementary school students being punished.
“This is…” Ji Meng hesitated for a moment.
"It's that Ye Jiajia. I saw Sister Shi Wan lying unconscious on the ground in the corridor. Ye Jiajia and several women pinned Sister Shi Wan against the wall."
Lu Chuchu said hesitantly, "Ye Jiajia hit Shi Wan when she couldn't move."
Seemingly sensing a sharp gaze sweeping over her, she didn't dare to look up at her brother's gloomy expression, and said in a somewhat tactful tone, "They also wanted to... wanted to take off Sister Shi Wan's dress in the corridor. When they saw me coming, they threw her in the corridor."
"Damn it! Ye Jiajia is insane!" Chu Ningxuan was the first to jump out and curse, his face full of anger as he clenched his fists.
Everyone looked at Lu Jingyan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed. He gently stroked the girl's forehead with his fingertip, his eyes slightly red, and stared at Shi Wan without saying a word.
"Old Lu, Old Lu! Say something, and I'll bring Ye Jiajia to you!" Chu Ningxuan was furious when he saw Lu Jingyan just quietly guarding the bedside.
After giving Shi Wan the last injection, Ji Chu looked up at Lu Jingyan, his expression still cold. "Old Lu, Miss Shi was probably drugged. Although she's not seriously injured, this kind of constant abuse will eventually cause problems."
Hearing Ji Chu's words, Lu Jingyan was slightly relieved and pulled the quilt up to cover Shi Wan.
Lu Jingyan glanced at Chu Ningxuan, his thin lips slightly pursed, a chilling murderous intent flashing in his eyes, his whole body exuding a strong aura of ferocity.
At this moment, a deep, cold voice sounded eerily, "Bring Ye Jiajia here."
"Brother... Now that Sister Shi Wan is alright, I'll be going. Xiao Nan Nan and Bei Bei are still waiting for me."
Lu Chuchu cautiously stole a glance at Lu Jingyan, afraid that his anger would spread to her.
Lu Jingyan finally looked directly at Lu Chuchu and said coldly, "The driver is waiting downstairs."
"Thank you, brother, I'm off!" Lu Chuchu hadn't expected Lu Jingyan to let her off so easily, perhaps because she had saved her future sister-in-law. She was just about to grab her bag and run out the door.
“If you and Sirius abandon Lu Nan and Lu Bei again when you go back to the old house, you can forget about having the surname Lu!”
Sure enough, her older brother wouldn't let her off the hook.
Hearing Lu Jingyan mention Sirius, Lu Chuchu paused for a moment, then turned her head and said with a bitter face, "Why did you bring him up! He treated me like that, and you still protect him. Are you even my brother?"
"Hmm? Is the problem with Sirius or with you?" Lu Jingyan didn't even look at his unreliable sister. If it weren't for the fact that she was his sister and Xiao Nanbei's mother, he would have kicked her out long ago.
"Uh...no problem, I'll be right back, don't tell him!" With that, he turned and ran.
She resentfully complained to her husband, who was far away in D country. This time, she saw with her own eyes that woman was clinging to him, and he didn't push her away, letting them climb all over him.
This time, she was so angry that she abandoned her duties as a wife and mother and went abroad to relax. As a result, he left the children with his maternal grandparents and went to find her.
Meanwhile, Sirius, who was at the old house with his friends from all over the country building Lego, sneezed and looked longingly at the door, wondering why his wife hadn't come back yet.
