"Anyway, she's not that well-behaved." Helian Chen's attention was focused on the novel, Jiang Feifei was obsessed with gossip, and Peng Yangyang, who was focused on studying, took a serious look at Lu Tian who was looking at herself in the mirror, confirming that something must be wrong with her.
In the evening, Lu Tian washed up early and put on a facial mask to take care of her skin. Suddenly, she received a video call from Tian Jing. She opened the video and connected the headphones.
"Sister, are you a ghost?" Zou Fan passed by, made a face in front of the camera and ran away.
Lu Tian threatened to hit her, but she didn't dare to move too much because of the mask. Tian Jing looked at her face gently and asked, "Did you return the 200,000 yuan I gave you?"
"Yes." She said nonchalantly, as if she didn't care about the two hundred thousand.
Tian Jing felt very strange: "You are rich?"
Lu Tian glanced at his roommate and mouthed: A meeting gift.
"That's quite a bit of money, but you don't have to pay it back to me. It's given to you, not borrowed." Tian Jing was reflecting on whether she had been too strict in the past, which made Lu Tian envy Yu Ningxuan and brought up this matter quietly.
"I'm self-reliant and don't lack money." When she said she was going to borrow money, she meant it. She could earn money by herself and wouldn't take it for granted that she would be a parasite.
"Okay, then if you need money, be sure to tell me."
Lu Tian raised her hand to assure him, and they chatted for a while before hanging up the video. She threw down her phone and went to take off her face mask. Tian Jing felt uneasy, so she clicked on Lu Tian's circle of friends to see her status. Recently, she was sharing what delicious food she had eaten. Zou Fan was crying and shouting for her to bring some back. She slowly scrolled down and saw a familiar name, and the smile on her face gradually froze.
Lu Chengyang... How long has it been since she heard this name?
Clicking on the details of the students' prayers for Lu Chengyang, she covered her mouth in disbelief: "How could this happen?"
**
Lu Tian got up early and went to class with her roommate. She was absent-minded for the whole two classes. After class, she handed the textbook to Helian Chen and asked her to take it back. She carried her bag and slowly walked out of the school, trying to arrive at the school gate just at 10:30.
But the lecture hall was very close to the school gate, so she quickly reached the agreed location. While she was debating between sitting in a milk tea shop and waiting on the roadside, a black car quietly came up to her, with Meng Jingdong's assistant Song Ci in the driver's seat.
Could it be that Meng Jingdong didn't come? She breathed a sigh of relief, opened the back door and prepared to get in, but saw him standing tall in a formal suit with a laptop on his lap.
"How about I sit in the front?"
Meng Jingdong glanced at her, and before he could say anything, he saw her get into the car obediently. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he was not a talkative person, let alone when he was with Lu Tian, so his gaze continued to turn to the computer interface.
After Lu Tian got in the car, she didn't look around. The back of the car was very quiet for a while. Song Ci, who originally wanted to say something to liven up the atmosphere, had to keep silent. At ten o'clock in the morning, the road conditions were smooth and they soon arrived at the First People's Hospital of the city. Meng Jingdong closed his notebook and glanced at Lu Tian. Lu Tian's eyes were attracted by the ambulance and she didn't notice his gaze.
"The sick person is my uncle, my aunt's husband. He's usually very nice to me. We need to behave harmoniously in front of him. Do you understand?"
Lu Tian understood: "It's just a show of affection."
Meng Jingdong nodded: "That's right."
When they were almost at the ward, Meng Jingdong gave a hint. Lu Tian took his arm without any hesitation, her lips raised in a polite yet gentle smile. Meng Jingdong's mouth twitched, and he began to not understand Lu Tian.
The floor of the VIP ward was very quiet. The only sound in the corridor was the sound of Lu Tian's high heels hitting the ground, with a great rhythm.
Until Meng Jingdong stopped at the door of a ward and glanced at her, Lu Tian would give him a look, indicating that she was ready. He turned the key to the ward door. The ward was quiet, white everywhere, and there was a faint smell of disinfectant in the air. Lu Tian felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She often worked in hospitals and did not like the smell of disinfectant.
A man lay on the hospital bed. As Lu Tian drew closer, she could make out his features. He looked familiar, but she couldn't place where she'd seen him before. As she got closer, she saw his furrowed brow and sweat-soaked temples; he seemed restless.
But at this time, Lu Tian had already recognized who the person in front of her was. He was a visiting professor from Dongda University, Professor Lu who had leukemia that Helian Chen and the others had mentioned. But Professor Lu was actually Meng Jingdong's uncle. She suddenly felt that the world was very small.
Back home, Zou Rui carried his son upstairs. Tian Jing stopped Lu Tian and asked her to stay in the car and talk for a while. Lu Tian inexplicably felt the uneasiness that her friend had described: the feeling of being called in for a talk by your boss.
"What do you think about the Gu family's affairs?"
Lu Tian touched his nose and looked directly into Tian Jing's serious eyes: "The Gu family wants to save face, so they have a lot of concerns. If Gu Yalan hadn't done anything wrong, they wouldn't have just abandoned her."
"Get to the point! What are you thinking? Did you reveal the truth before just for these reasons?" Tian Jing still remembered that she had asked Lu Tian what benefits he wanted to gain from this matter. At that time, she was an outsider, but now that she was in the middle of it, it was difficult for her to analyze rationally.
"I exposed it at the time because I was angry and jealous of Yu Ningxuan, but after seeing the Gu family, it's no longer just jealousy. I can't control the Gu family's thoughts, and I can't guarantee to make up for the loss of the Gu family in cutting off Gu Yalan. The Yu family is not wrong, and the baby swap was not done by Gu Yalan. The only one who is wrong is Old Madam Tian. The Yu family doesn't want to lose face, so they have to keep it secret. The Gu family also keeps it secret because they think they can make it up to you privately, but the interests of the Gu family cannot be lost. Even if the old man is willing to give it up, his sons and grandsons don't want to lose this solid family alliance with the Yu family."
