Chapter 76 Respected Dog Cousin
Kangji Hospital's advanced care VIP ward.
Lu Yiman sat on the leather sofa in the living room, with her luxury bag casually placed on the wool carpet at her feet.
Because Mr. Lu is a tea lover, the hospital caters to his taste and has placed a Kung Fu coffee table in front of the sofa in each VIP ward.
Ruan Xingyue was bending over to make tea. Her fingertips tapped lightly on the black gold stone tea tray, making a clear sound.
The milky white suit is slim and elegant. She only uses a pen to pin her long hair behind her head. Her eyebrows are calm and her every move shows her elegant temperament.
Lu Yiman stared at her pleasing movements and thought to himself, this girl is good at everything she learns, no wonder everyone loves her. Her pretty face is just the least noteworthy thing about her.
She turned her wrist and hooked the handle of the silver pot on her fingertips. When boiling water was poured into the fairness cup, the lotus pattern carved on the spout of the pot was faintly visible in the steam.
This set of moves made a splash in front of Mr. Lu, who praised her highly. He even happily gave the girl two boxes of Pu'er tea cakes that he had treasured for many years.
Lu Yiman felt relieved and proud when he saw this.
Right now, I just feel upset.
"Okay, my son is in the intensive care unit. Do you think I'm still in the mood to drink your tea?"
Ruan Xingyue's movements were neither hurried nor slow, and her tone was relaxed: "Mr. Lu should not doubt me, but he should doubt anyone else."
Lu Yiman leaned back and crossed his legs. "I know you're investigating your good friend's case."
Lu Yiman's face turned cold, and his eyes became sharp. "I've hinted to you more than once that Lu Tian has nothing to do with this matter. He wasn't completely broken in high school. He prefers chasing after powerful boys rather than women, and he aspires to become a powerful man."
Ruan Xingyue lowered her eyes and continued what she was doing: "I know it's not Lu Tian..."
She raised her eyes again and looked at Lu Yiman: "You know it's not Lu Fuchuan..."
Lu Yiman's breathing slowed down, and his sharp eyes narrowed: "What do you want to say?"
"Six years ago, Lu Fuchuan was imprisoned, his future ruined, and he was exiled. Six years later, Lu Tian had just joined the company and was about to get engaged when he was involved in a car accident. The security cameras at the scene were hacked, and his life was in danger. Does the Lu family have a third heir?"
Lu Yiman looked at her quietly, his legs raised slightly stiff, his whole body stretched like a sculpture.
You could hear a pin drop in the living room, and not even a breath could be heard.
"I've known for a long time that Lu Tian was having affairs outside, and I don't care how many women he has. How could you hurt Lu Tian for a woman who is not presentable enough and lose your chance to marry into a wealthy family? Mr. Lu, from the beginning to the end, I've been on the same boat with you..."
Lu Yiman was still thinking, his mouth moved unconsciously twice: "Who else could it be?"
Ruan Xingyue offered the brewed hot tea with both hands: "It depends on when Mr. Lu finds out. I also want to know who this person is."
Lu Yiman raised his hand to accept the cup of tea, his expression still in a daze.
Ruan Xingyue stood up and unconsciously said, "I don't seem to have seen Professor Liang."
Lu Yiman's face darkened, and he threw the teacup back onto the table with a bang, spilling most of the tea.
"What kind of father is he!" Lu Yiman's expression suddenly froze, as if he had thought of something.
Ruan Xingyue took out a tissue, bent down and carefully wiped her hands, observing her expression while moving.
There was a knock on the door, and Assistant Lu Yiman pushed it open and came in: "Mr. Lu, the expert consultation is over."
Lu Yi stood up so quickly that he forgot to take his bag.
As she walked, she said, "Xingyue, come with me and listen."
Ruan Xingyue responded, bent down, picked up her bag and caught up.
There was a hint of a victorious smile between his eyebrows, but it was fleeting and could not be caught like the wind.
After the face-to-face conversation with the attending physician, the light in Lu Yiman's eyes completely disappeared.
What’s even more worrying is that the traffic police and drug enforcement police are still guarding outside the intensive care unit, checking Lu Tian’s past interpersonal relationships and screening everyone.
Ruan Xingyue received Lu Yiman's order to be responsible for receiving the police.
She composed herself and went to see the old man.
On the way, I couldn't help but regret again. I shouldn't have kept the child. Maybe my elder brother and sister-in-law Xinlan were right.
Not only did she fail to educate Lu Tian, but she also had to face the pain of losing her son in middle age.
Lu Tian neither grew up to be the child she expected, nor did she become the gentle and kind mother Lu Tian imagined.
Lu Tian's current situation has become the biggest stain in Lu Yiman's life.
Liang Xin and she each bear half the responsibility.
Lu Yiman gritted his teeth and cursed Liang Xin in his heart.
Ruan Xingyue cooperated with the questioning and finished, then came out of the hospital's visiting room.
She ran into a tall, elegant square-faced man in a white coat and black-framed glasses, who was looking at her with joy.
"Xingyue, long time no see."
Ruan Xingyue smiled gently in response: "Brother Liang, long time no see. If I remember correctly, you are about to graduate with your doctorate, right?"
She kept calling him "senior brother", which made Liang Chi overjoyed. He touched his head, not knowing where to put his hands and feet: "I graduated with a doctorate this year and am currently doing regular training at Kangji."
The two walked out side by side.
Liang Chi went to the same high school as them. Ruan Xingyue had just entered the affiliated high school when she was in her first year of high school. Because of her outstanding talent and beauty, she stole the limelight from many other young ladies and was troubled by many people with connections. Liang Chi was a repeater that year and helped Ruan Xingyue a lot, both openly and secretly.
After Yao Yao left, Liang Chi accompanied Ruan Xingyue through the most difficult six months as a netizen, sending messages every day to make sure she was not depressed.
Ruan Xingyue knew that he liked her, but he didn't say it, so she pretended not to know.
In order to make their attitude clear, the two repeatedly emphasized their relationship as friends and high school seniors during their interactions.
Liang Chi didn't seem to care. He was satisfied with just being called a senior brother.
"Did you drive here? I can take you there. I have a two-hour lunch break at noon." Liang Chi said embarrassedly, "If you have time, we can have a meal together..."
Ruan Xingyue was careful to distance herself from the ambiguity between the two of them: "I have a driver from the Lu family. I need to go to the Lu family to prepare things for Lu Tian's hospitalization."
Liang Chi seemed a little regretful, but still insisted on taking her to the parking lot.
As soon as the two of them got out of the elevator, they happened to run into Liang Xin head-on.
Liang Xin is tall with ordinary features. Because he always has a gloomy face, his eyebrows and mouth corners are all pulled down, giving him the temperament of a strict teacher.
Seeing Ruan Xingyue, he forced a rare smile: "It's Xingyue, how is Lu Tian? I just came back from out of town, and Mr. Lu didn't answer my calls."
Ruan Xingyue turned around and introduced Liang Chi: "Senior Brother Liang is Lu Tian's attending physician. He was also there during the consultation."
Liang Chi stepped forward and replied respectfully, "I'm afraid it will take a long time for Young Master Lu to recover. At the moment, it seems he's still in danger of becoming a vegetable."
There was a hint of nervousness in his tone, not the nervousness that an intern would have when facing a patient's family.
More like a student facing a strict teacher.
Ruan Xingyue couldn't describe it at the moment, but she looked at the facial features of the two people keenly.
Liang Xin nodded, without expressing any pity for his only son who was about to become a vegetable.
He seemed to be in a hurry to get into the elevator, waved his hand, and left with his assistant.
The Lu family's car stopped in front of the hospital, and Ruan Xingyue drove to the back seat.
I rolled down the car window and said goodbye to Liang Chi.
Seeing Liang Chi's reluctant look, Ruan Xingyue suddenly pulled out the pen on her head and handed it to him: "I heard that doctors like to lose their pens. I just happen to have one here, leaving it for Brother Liang."
The beauty's long hair falls gently, her lips smile peacefully, and her eyes are like orchids in the deep valley.
Liang Chi couldn't hide the fascination in his eyes at all.
I subconsciously took it with both hands.
As Ruan Xingyue handed it to him, she suddenly asked, "Brother Liang, have you found your biological father?"
Liang Chi comes from a single-parent family and was raised by his mother alone. He has been looking for his biological father.
He once showed weakness in front of Ruan Xingyue.
At this moment, looking at the beautiful eyes and eyebrows of his first love Bai Yueguang, Liang Chi replied without any defense: "Found it."
After saying it, I subconsciously refuted myself: "But I'm not sure if he is."
Ruan Xingyue took in his micro-expressions, so how could she not know that his last sentence was a lie.
"Then I wish Brother Liang all his wishes come true in advance."
The car window rolled down, and the smile in his eyes faded little by little.
Ruan Xingyue sent a message to Gu Xing with a serious face: I need all the information about a person, from birth to today.
She typed Liang Chi's name.
Gu Xing quickly replied with a word "OK".
Suddenly remembering something, Ruan Xingyue lowered her head and typed again: How is he?
Gu Xing asked knowingly: Who?
Ruan Xingyue rolled her eyes and said: Your cousin.
Gu Xing: Oh, Lu Ergou.
Ruan Xingyue: ...
Ruan Xingyue: Then who are you? A dog's cousin is not a dog.
In the A University cafeteria, Gu Xing looked at his dog "cousin" wolfing down his food across from him with growing disgust in his eyes.
Ruan Xingmian, who was sitting next to him, had already expressed her dissatisfaction, but knowing that it was her sister's arrangement, she did not dare to continue to show her dissatisfaction. She happily shared today's dishes with Wen Zhu, and the two sisters took food from each other's bowls.
Suddenly, a new plate of food landed next to her. Gu Xing sat down again and said, "If it's not enough, bring more. Wenzhu doesn't have enough to eat herself."
Wenzhu bit her chopsticks and said nothing. "Gu Shen, if you are jealous, just say it. You are so jealous in your heart, but you still care about whether I am full or not."
Ruan Xingmian finished the food in his mouth and picked up the cup to drink water: "But I'm full."
Lu Fuchuan passed everyone and couldn't wait to take away the new plate: "I'm not full yet."
Gu Xing put his arm around his girlfriend, staring at Lu Fuchuan, and mentally calculated that the food bill would have to double.
After both girls finished eating, he stood up and walked them to the park.
The first set of live broadcast equipment will be delivered in the afternoon.
They need to prepare for the live broadcast in the evening.
The two girls walked in front, and Gu Xing left his dormitory key and meal card.
"Put on your mask after you finish eating, and don't run around. Remember, you are Lu Ergou from University A."
Lu Fuchuan snorted in dissatisfaction, raised his head and challenged him: "Have a safe journey, my respected dog cousin!"
