Chapter 398 Brothers’ Concern
"Manman." Lu Chixu controlled his emotions and walked to the sofa in a few steps, his movements so fast that they caused a gust of wind.
He completely ignored Ji Linshen next to him, pulled his elder brother aside, bent down, and held Lu Shiman's face with his two big hands with a bit of rough force.
He turned her head left and right as if he was examining some treasure.
He leaned in closer to stare at the lump, muttering, "Fuck, why is it so swollen?" He gasped in pain, "Does it hurt? Are you dizzy? Do you want to vomit?"
A series of questions came like a machine gun, and he gritted his teeth: "Gu Ze, that bastard, I must..."
The rest of the words were swallowed back by Lu Yannan's warning look, but the anger and heartache on his face did not diminish in the slightest.
Lu Shiman was so amused by his second brother's face-holding and close-range scanning that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Second brother, it's okay, I just got bumped."
"Just a bump?" Lu Chixu's voice rose. "How can you say it's okay? It's swollen like a unicorn."
He let go of his hand and scratched his hair irritably. "No, no, where's the doctor? Why hasn't the doctor come yet?"
Lu Jianheng arrived last. He rushed in and was relieved when he saw Lu Shiman sitting on the sofa.
He walked to the sofa, his eyes fell precisely on Lu Shiman's forehead, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This style is quite unique."
He bent down slightly and moved closer: "This is round, like the birthday star."
After saying that, he touched it lightly with his fingers: "Does it hurt? Does your head hurt?"
Lu Shiman slapped his hand away: "You are the birthday star."
Lu Jianheng stood up straight and shrugged: "Okay, okay, I'm the birthday star."
He pushed Lu Chixu aside and held Lu Shiman's face: "There's also a bag that looks good. Our Manman is the prettiest."
Lu Jianheng finished speaking and nodded seriously.
Then he looked at Lu Qiyun again: "Have you called a doctor?"
Lu Qijun rolled his eyes silently: "Yeah."
"Contact her again and ask her to bring some good medicine to reduce swelling and remove blood stasis. By the way..." Lu Jianheng paused, "See if there's anything that can make people smarter. Give her some supplements."
Lu Chixu sat on the sofa and sneered jokingly, "If there really is such a thing, I'll give it to you first, so you don't have to act stupid all day long."
Lu Yannan silently stood up, brought a cup of warm water and a plate of cut fruit, and walked to Lu Shiman.
"Don't listen to his nonsense." Lu Yannan's voice was gentle, like coaxing a child: "You are not that stupid."
This sounds like comfort, but it feels a bit strange when you think about it carefully.
"Ah?" Lu Shiman blinked, completely unresponsive.
"Are you hungry?" Lu Jianheng sat on the coffee table. "You've vomited, so your stomach must be empty now, right? How about some fruit to fill your stomach? I'll ask the kitchen to make you some midnight snack."
Lu Shiman's face wrinkled into a ball, and she leaned listlessly in Ji Lin's arms, her voice weak and listless: "I don't want to eat, I feel dizzy."
The word "dizzy" was like dropping cold water into a boiling oil pan, and the whole living room exploded instantly.
Lu Chixu's reaction was the fastest and most intense.
"Fuck, dizzy?" He jumped up from the sofa and rushed to Lu Shiman. Without saying a word, he reached out to hug her: "What are you waiting for? It must be a concussion."
"Quick, second brother will take you to the hospital for a check-up immediately."
Lu Jianheng immediately stood up and said, "I'll go drive."
Ji Linshen didn't hand the person over to Lu Chixu. Instead, he hugged Lu Shiman tightly and asked, "Besides dizziness, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"
Lu Qiyun took out his cell phone and prepared to tell the doctor not to come and they would go directly to the hospital.
In an instant, the living room was in chaos.
"Stop!" Lu Shiman shouted, "I'm dizzy...it's not from the collision."
Everyone's movements and voices stopped instantly, and their eyes were focused on her, like a group of large dogs waiting for orders.
Lu Shiman met their nervous gazes and sighed, "I...drank too much tonight, and now I'm feeling the effects."
Quiet.
Deathly quiet.
Everyone was so anxious that they almost forgot that this guy was kidnapped because he drank with Qin Jiaojiao.
"Lu Shiman, I really am..." Lu Chixu raised his hand to hit her head, but when he saw the bag, he felt heartbroken.
Several brothers took turns scolding her.
Lu Shiman was already dizzy, and now she felt even more dizzy.
It was already late at night when I finished seeing the doctor.
Back in his familiar, soft bed, Lu Shiman fell into a deep sleep almost as soon as his head touched the pillow.
Ji Linshen sat down beside the bed, and the appropriate worry and restraint he had shown when facing his brothers just now disappeared instantly.
There was only a dim wall lamp on in the bedroom, and the soft glow outlined the deep profile of his face.
He stretched out his hand, and his cool fingertips gently brushed the red and swollen bump on her forehead. The bulge of warmth made his heart twitch.
Ji Linshen leaned down and gave her a gentle and tender kiss, as light as a feather, landing on the red and swollen part of her forehead.
His thin lips slowly left her hot skin.
In his slightly raised eyes, all the tenderness and compassion faded away quickly like the tide, and was replaced by a sinister cold light that froze everything.
He stared at her face, which still looked fragile and pale even in her sleep, his eyes as focused as a poisonous snake locking onto its prey.
The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Only his low, chilling voice echoed in the silence.
"Go to sleep, wife."
One moment he was extremely gentle, but the next moment he suddenly turned into a biting coldness: "I will help you clean up everything that may bring you danger."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the bedroom.
In the living room, only moonlight streamed into the room. He walked to the French window and dialed Chu Qi's number.
The call was connected almost instantly.
"Master."
"The Gu family. Inside and out, eight generations of ancestors, check it out for me. Assets, handles, overt and covert clues, anything that can be grasped, don't miss it." Ji Linshen's voice was flat and as cold as the wind at night.
On the other end of the phone, Chu Qi's voice was calm and quick: "I understand, Master. What about...Gu Ze? He is still in the hands of your brother-in-law."
Ji Lin cast his gaze towards the dark night in the distance: "Put it aside for now, let big brother and the others vent their anger."
"As for the Fu family, you need to act quickly, but don't be too clean." Ji Linshen suddenly changed the subject, and the dormant murderous intent in his tone suddenly became several times stronger.
Chu Qi's voice was filled with excitement: "Master, don't worry. We are making steady progress. You should spend time with your wife. Maybe she will be so happy that she can even give you a higher allowance."
Ji Lin sighed silently: "Chu Qi."
"Yes, Master."
"Take some time to see a doctor." After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for Chu Qi's response.
Chu Qi was stunned at first, then he became happy.
He felt warm in his heart. The young master was so nice that he still cared about him at this time.
