Early in the morning, the president... (not really), Lu An'an sat up in bed, her eyes still blurry.
After spacing out for a while, Lu An'an slowly strolled to the bathroom to wash up, got dressed, and went downstairs.
Downstairs, Lu's father saw that Lu An'an had already gotten ready and asked with concern, "An'an, why are you up so early? Are you not used to sleeping in?"
Lu An'an obediently shook her head, "Good morning, Dad. I'm not feeling uncomfortable. Jin Yan said yesterday that he would come to pick me up to go to the Jin family today, so I got up early."
Mr. Lu stood up from the sofa, his eyes full of doting affection. "Perfect timing, your mother made you some soup. Come on, let's go try it."
As the two walked into the restaurant, Song Shiyun came out of the kitchen and smiled at the father and daughter, saying, "An'an, get up! Come and sit down, and try the soup your mother made."
Lu An'an nodded, her eyes and brows full of smiles. "Thank you, Mom. I'll definitely drink more."
The three had just sat down when Lu Wenjing and Lu Yanli entered the restaurant one after the other. Lu Yanli glanced at Lu An'an, who was already sitting in the restaurant, and raised an eyebrow.
"Why is my little sister up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I got up because I was afraid Jin Yan would come early."
Lu Wenjing buttoned up his cuffs, sat down, and said gently to Lu An'an, "Have your third brother accompany you; he's off today."
Lu An'an thought about it and agreed.
[It's good to have Third Brother come along. After all, I practice traditional Chinese medicine, and I can ask him about some Western medical matters in private.]
Lu Xunran had just reached the door when he heard his sister say that, and subconsciously asked, "Sister, where do you need me, a Western doctor, to go with your third brother?"
Lu's father and his three companions: !!! !!! !!! !!! !!!
Lu An'an: ?
Did I accidentally mention Western medicine?
Lu Xunran then realized that what she had just heard was her sister's true feelings, and was about to make amends when Lu Yanli took over the conversation.
"Little sister, I just heard your heart..."
Lu An'an looked at her second brother and suddenly felt that she could see him speak, but she couldn't hear him. She shook her head and felt much more awake.
[Strange, why did I suddenly feel confused?]
She looked up and asked Lu Yanli, "Second Brother, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."
Lu Yanli's eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a smile, "I told your third brother yesterday that you were going to treat Old Master Jin's illness today, and asked him to go with you, but he forgot about it today."
Lu Xunran also noticed that something was wrong with Lu An'an and quickly chimed in, "Yes, you got up too early and didn't realize it yet. Third brother will go with you."
Lu An'an nodded, full of doubt, and lowered her head to drink her soup.
Something feels off. Why am I suddenly so confused? Am I still half asleep?
The rest of the people at the table exchanged a knowing glance, their understanding unspoken.
Lu Wenjing casually picked up a steamed bun for Lu An'an and asked, "An'an, yesterday you mentioned Master Ye, was it Master Ye Fusheng?"
Lu An'an swallowed a mouthful of soup and replied, "Yes, it's him."
"You know Master Ye?"
"Yes, I saved him by chance when I was going down the mountain before. Afterwards, I noticed that he had some problems with his hand, so I treated it as well."
[The original novel didn't explain how the original owner met Master Ye, but coincidentally, the first patient I treated after descending the mountain was also a painter with a problem with his hand. I might as well borrow him.]
Lu Wenjing's movements faltered slightly, his fingertips trembled, and the gazes of the remaining four people also converged on Lu An'an, their eyes filled with a complex and indescribable heartache.
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and just then, the butler led Jin Yan in.
"Chairman Lu, Madam, Young Master Jin has arrived."
Everyone's attention shifted and fell on Jin Yan.
Today, Jin Yan has changed his flamboyant style from yesterday. He is dressed appropriately and exudes an extraordinary temperament.
Lu An'an raised an eyebrow playfully.
Hey, this kid looks pretty decent and even quite handsome today.
Father Lu nodded inwardly and greeted Jin Yan with a smile, "Young Master Jin, you've arrived so early? Have you eaten yet?"
Jin Yan nodded, "I've already eaten. Uncle Lu, just call me Xiao Yan."
Lu An'an quickly finished the last sip of soup in her bowl, slung her small bag over her shoulder, and walked to Jin Yan's side.
"Mom, the soup is delicious, let's go! Third brother, let's go."
Lu Xunran hummed in agreement and went out with them.
*
When Lu An'an arrived at the Jin family home, she saw Jin Fangguo waiting for her at the door as soon as she got out of the car. She quickly walked a few steps to Jin Fangguo.
"Good morning, Grandpa Jin. Why are you still waiting for me at the door? Have you been waiting long?"
Jin Fangguo smiled kindly, "Haha, good morning An'an. I had nothing to do anyway, so I came out for some fresh air. I didn't have to wait long."
Lu An'an smiled and introduced to Jin Fangguo, "Grandpa Jin, this is my third brother, Lu Xunran, a surgeon at Beijing Municipal Hospital."
Jin Fangguo looked over and said, "I know Dr. Lu. He's a very famous surgical expert."
Lu Xunran bowed slightly, "You flatter me, Mr. Jin."
Jin Fangguo chuckled a few times. "Young people should have some confidence. Let's go in."
As the group entered the living room, Lu An'an asked curiously, "Grandpa Jin, where are Uncle and Aunt?"
Jin Fangguo explained, "They are still on a mission and haven't returned yet."
"Grandpa Jin, didn't you tell them about your medical treatment?"
"No need, I can make my own decision, and I trust An'an."
Jin Yan echoed, "I also believe Miss Lu."
Lu An'an smiled and nodded: "Just call me An'an. Let's begin. Come on, help Grandpa Jin lie down on the bed. I'll check Grandpa Jin's legs first."
