Lu Family Villa.
After the visiting relatives and friends left one by one, things finally quieted down.
Qin Fengying lay on the chaise lounge in the living room, rubbing her temples and letting out a long sigh.
She had never felt so tired before; she was truly exhausted these past few days.
Just then, Lu Han's crying and screaming suddenly came from upstairs.
"My leg hurts so much, ma'am, I'm sure my leg is broken, why don't you put it in a cast?"
When Lu Baozhi received a call from home, she immediately dropped what she was doing and asked for leave.
Seeing Lu Han's pale face at the hospital, he was quite frightened.
But after seeing the MRI report, I felt relieved.
At first glance, his legs did appear to be covered in bruises, but in reality, no bones or tendons were injured.
Since the suggestion was to raise the child at home, Lu Baozhi didn't see anything wrong with it.
Fan Huijun was quite surprised to see her old classmate whom she hadn't seen for many years.
"Zhizhi, I didn't expect him to be your brother. Should I arrange a bed for him to be hospitalized for observation for a few days?"
At this moment, Lu Baozhi least wanted to see acquaintances.
It's not something to be proud of for my younger brother to be beaten. If word gets out, we won't be able to keep those things in the family a secret anymore.
He quickly greeted her, "Xiao Jun, when did you come back? Why didn't you take over your family's hospital and instead came to work at a public hospital?"
Fan Huijun waved her hand and chuckled awkwardly, "Going to work from home, where's the freedom? By the way, who beat your brother? I think he's not even eighteen yet, should we call the police?"
Lu Baozhi resolutely refused, "No need! They're just kids, it's normal for them to drink and fool around."
That's what she was worried about, which is why she told Lu Baofei in advance not to let her mother follow her to the emergency room.
Otherwise, if the doctor asks her, she might blurt out the whole truth in her panic.
The medical industry isn't a very big circle, and the news spread like wildfire until it became common knowledge, making her too ashamed to continue.
Fan Huijun nodded, not thinking too much about it.
"That's true. There's a shortage of beds in public hospitals right now. His injuries aren't serious, so if he goes home and eats plenty of nutritious food, he'll recover quickly!"
Seeing that she didn't continue the original topic, Lu Baozhi quickly asked Uncle Wang, the driver, and Butler Xu to help carry the whimpering Lu Han out of the clinic.
Just then, Fan Huijun sighed.
"Young people these days are so fragile. Not long ago, a guy about his age broke his arm..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Baozhi felt a chill run down her spine and hesitated before stopping.
As if possessed, I asked, "How is his recovery?"
Fan Huijun remained noncommittal. "You know how it is during the recovery period after a fracture... Hmm, he seems to have the same surname, Lu. Do you know Zhizhi too?"
Lu Baozhi smiled awkwardly, "How could that be? I was just asking casually."
She dared not linger any longer and hurried to the parking lot.
Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast.
As Lu Baofei's car drove into the residential area, before it had even come to a complete stop, a group of relatives and friends surrounded her, carrying large and small bags of gifts and vying to offer their greetings and well wishes.
After finally getting them all away, Lu Han started making a scene again.
Seeing that his lips were pale, Lu Baozhi sat down by his bedside to comfort him with heartache.
"Xiaohan, getting a cast is a last resort. Think about it, in this hot weather, keeping your legs completely covered will easily cause prickly heat."
Lu Han sniffed, "Big sister, I feel so much pain, will I never be able to stand up again?"
Just as Lu Baozhi was about to speak, Lu Baofei, who had just finished making a phone call, entered the room, looking indignant.
"It's all that heartless Lu Yi's fault! If my parents weren't afraid of airing our dirty laundry in public, I would have called the police!"
Fan Huijun's words lingered in Lu Baozhi's mind, refusing to dissipate.
She was somewhat dazed.
He didn't hear what his second sister said at all, just casually agreed, and got up to go to the bathroom.
Lu Baoqi carried the pork rib soup upstairs and placed the tray on the bedside table.
"Second sister, you have something to do at your company, so go ahead and get busy. I saw you made more than a dozen phone calls."
Seeing Lu Baozhi walk out of the bathroom with a tired look on her face, she added another sentence.
“With so many of us taking care of Xiaohan, she’ll be fine. Big sister, your phone has been ringing a lot. I wonder if the hospital is urging you to go back…”
Lu Baozhi leaned against the door frame and forced a stiff smile.
"Xiaohan, take good care of yourself and get well soon. I'll come back to be with you as soon as I'm done with my work!"
Lu Han obediently agreed.
But I always felt like I was being left out in the cold, and the overwhelming hatred in my heart almost overflowed.
He got beaten up, so why is everyone reacting like this?
It wasn't like this before.
Shouldn't we arrest Lu Yi and let him experience what it's like to lose his freedom?
By the way, where is Fourth Sister Lu Baoyun?
Could she be unaware that she is injured?
...
The fried food was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with an irresistible aroma. Liang Shiyue finally relaxed and opened the hamburger to enjoy it.
Lu Yi squeezed out some ketchup, took a small bite of his fries, and said gently, "It's a bit far from your house, which is something I didn't consider."
Liang Shiyue tilted her head slightly, "I'm the one who invited you here, it's my idea to come."
Lu Yi picked up the Coke, paused, and said, "Actually, that's what I think too."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Her silhouette, a blend of white and sky blue, became the most eye-catching feature in the store.
Lin Xiaoya, watching from the corner upstairs, was filled with envy.
The boy across from her pushed an envelope toward her, staring intently at her.
"Xiaoya, you promised that if I got into our university's graduate program, you would be my girlfriend. Now it's time to keep your promise, right?"
Lin Xiaoya withdrew her gaze and glanced at it indifferently.
