Lu Jiefang quickly covered his mouth, "A Yuan, don't talk nonsense!"
"Hehe, what are you afraid of? There's no one here," Lu Yuan said with a grin.
Lu Jiefang looked around and explained, "I'm not familiar with her."
Lu Yuan scoffed, "Brother Jiefang, if you weren't familiar with us, would you have come all this way to accompany us personally? If you weren't familiar with us, would you have called us for help?"
Lu Jiefang felt he had no way to defend himself. "I really don't know her well. I brought her here because we just happened to run into each other."
Then he explained the whole story.
After listening, Lu Yuan suddenly realized that he didn't know the other person before. But it was quite a coincidence that the other person was actually a member of the Zhong family.
What's even more coincidental is that the other party is Zhong Yanling's cousin.
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he put his arm around his shoulder with a sly smile.
“Brother Jiefang, I think this woman is much better than your previous one. Why don’t we break off the engagement with this gold digger and marry her aunt instead?”
Wow, this is even more exciting than novels from later generations. The more Lu Yuan thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more feasible it seemed.
Lu Jiefang was about to cover his mouth again when his ears inexplicably turned red.
“Ah Yuan, don’t talk nonsense. If someone hears this, it will ruin Comrade Zhong’s reputation.”
Lu Yuan laughed and dodged, then teased him by pointing at his bright red ears.
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense, and you shouldn't overthink it either. Your ears are all red like that, Brother Jiefang, can you really say you don't have any thoughts at all?"
Of course not, but he swallowed the words back down.
I felt a little guilty. I didn't feel guilty at first, but after listening to him ramble on like that, I actually thought for a moment that the suggestion was not bad.
He was so guilty that his face and neck turned red.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan burst into laughter.
Lu Jiefang was embarrassed and wanted to make an excuse to urinate.
"Ah Yuan, I'm going to the restroom."
"Together."
"Never mind, I suddenly don't want to go upstairs anymore. I'll go upstairs and take a look instead."
"what ever!"
When Lu Jiefang returned to the ward, Zhong Zhiping was sitting anxiously waiting in front of the bed.
Seeing that she was alone in the ward, and remembering what Lu Yuan had just said, she felt very uncomfortable. She wanted to leave, but the sound of the door opening startled the person inside.
"Why are you alone? Where is Comrade Lu?"
Zhong Zhiping looked behind him and, not seeing Lu Yuan, casually asked.
"I went to the toilet."
Zhong Zhiping nodded without saying anything more, and got up to move a chair for him and serve him tea and water.
Lu Jiefang stopped him, saying, "Don't bother, I want to get some water myself."
Zhong Zhiping took it as a polite gesture and poured him a cup of tea.
The best thing about this ward is that it has tea and several teacups, so it's not a problem if someone comes to drink tea.
"Don't be so polite. You've helped me so much today, it's only right that I pour you a cup of tea."
"Thanks!"
Lu Jiefang reluctantly took the cup, took two sips, and then placed the teacup on the small table in front of him.
Seeing that he had drunk the tea, Zhong Zhiping smiled knowingly.
Let alone serving tea, she would be willing to do anything for him, even if it meant finding someone to save her mother's life.
Oh dear, her good-for-nothing cousin, how could she break up with such a good man? Is she blind?
Just a few days ago, he was bragging to her about how her boyfriend could drive a tractor, had a high salary, and was good-looking, but now he's actually willing to break up with her.
Could it be that they've found someone better?
Otherwise, given her personality, she wouldn't easily let go of such a good man.
At this moment, she was very curious about which better man her arrogant and snobbish niece could find.
In her opinion, Lu Jiefang was almost perfect. Besides being able to drive a tractor, earning a high salary, and being good-looking, he had many other advantages.
For example, he's warm-hearted, well-connected, and has a calm and steady personality. Having him around, even without doing anything, makes one feel at ease. If she had a partner like that, she would definitely…
"Well, if Auntie wakes up and there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
Interrupted from her thoughts, Zhong Zhiping realized what she was thinking. Her face flushed, and she felt guilty and at a loss. She picked up the teacup on the table in front of her and took a sip.
"Why……"
Before Lu Jiefang could stop him, the other person had already drunk it.
However, his exclamation brought Zhong Zhiping back to her senses. She stared at the teacup in her hand, her eyes widening, and her face instantly turned bright red.
Oh no, damn it, wasn't this the tea she poured for Lu Jiefang just now? The worst part is that he even took two sips of it.
"puff……"
A mouthful of water, which he hadn't even swallowed yet, sprayed onto the face and body of the person opposite him.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."
Zhong Zhiping quickly put down her teacup, got up, and went over to wipe the tea stains off his face.
Without a handkerchief, I had to use my hands and sleeves.
"No, it's okay, I can do it myself."
Lu Zhiping couldn't let him do it himself; it was all his own fault, and she had to clean it up for him no matter what.
"I'm sorry, I'll clean it up for you right away."
When Lu Yuan pushed the door open, he saw Lu Jiefang sitting there with a woman rubbing his face against hers. His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"Um, did I come at the wrong time? Should I leave and you guys continue?"
Upon hearing the sound, both parties stopped and looked at him simultaneously. The next second, their faces turned bright red, and they both backed away.
Where could Lu Jiefang retreat from his chair? Before he knew it, he and the chair fell backward.
Seeing this, Zhong Zhiping rushed to help him up, but unfortunately she tripped over the overturned chair and instead fell on top of it instead of helping him up.
Lu Yuan: "..."
"Pfft, hahahahahaha..."
Zhong Zhiping was so embarrassed that her face turned as red as a boiled shrimp, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into immediately.
Lu Jiefang wasn't much better off; his face was flushed crimson, and the crucial point... the crucial point...
The key thing is that he can't say it. He despises himself in his heart. The woman just accidentally pounced on him, so why did he react?
call--
He secretly exhaled two breaths of stale air, trying hard to suppress the heat in his body, and dared not look up at the girl.
The two scrambled to their feet.
At this moment, Lu Yuan had already closed the ward door, leaning against it, watching the two shy and embarrassed people with a leisurely air.
I don't know where he got the sunflower seeds from, but he started eating them.
"Ah Yuan!"
Lu Jiefang called out to him helplessly, feeling both angry and amused!
Lu Yuan stepped forward with sunflower seeds to share with the two of them, saying, "Come on, you two have some too."
Zhong Zhiping just wanted to disappear on the spot; she had no interest in eating sunflower seeds.
"No need, thank you, Comrade Lu!"
Lu Jiefang also wanted to escape, so he pushed Lu Yuan out of the ward.
Lu Yuan stumbled a couple of steps as he was pushed, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the person on the hospital bed move. He exclaimed with delight, "Hey, the person's awake!"
Lu Jiefang and Zhong Zhiping, disregarding their embarrassment, rushed to the bedside.
"Mom, Mom, you're awake! That's wonderful!"
Dong Chuntao actually woke up when her daughter was wiping someone's face, and she was also watching Lu Yuan eat melons.
The people gathered around but didn't even look at their own daughters; they just stared at Lu Jiefang, their lips slightly upturned, their faces full of affection.
"Young man, are you Zhiping's boyfriend? Thank you for coming to see me!"
