President, the deceased lady has three more children

Lu Mingzhu really didn't expect Madam Fu to say such things in front of the doctors and nurses. She moved closer to the bedside and continued speaking, her voice choked with sobs.

"Auntie, Grandma, I know you don't want to see me, but I just want to know about Brother Yun Chuan's situation. I'll leave after I find out the details."

"Doctor, what happened to Yun Chuan? Is he alright? When will he wake up?"

After she finished speaking, she covered her chest and coughed lightly twice, her body swaying as if she would collapse at any moment.

The doctor knew that Lu Mingzhu had health problems and how much Fu Yunchuan cared about her. If something happened to her in front of him, he would be in deep trouble.

Especially since even the bodyguards at the door didn't dare to stop Lu Mingzhu, he had to be even more careful.

He glanced at Mrs. Fu, the old lady's wife, and thought that he was going to explain Mr. Fu's illness anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to say it now, so as not to offend either side.

"Madam Fu, Madam Fu, and President Gu, President Fu's condition is indeed not very good."

Upon hearing the doctor's words, Mrs. Fu had no choice but to stop talking.

She glanced at Lu Mingzhu with coldness and disgust. There was plenty of time to sort things out; the most important thing now was to understand Fu Yunchuan's situation.

After all, he was her own son; how could she not feel sorry for him and worry about him?

Lu Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief. The doctor's words had relieved her anxiety. Otherwise, she was really worried that the two old women from the Fu family would throw her out, and she would have truly lost face.

"Doctor, please explain the specifics of the president's condition." Jiang Bai ignored Lu Mingzhu and asked the doctor directly.

After all, judging from what the young mistress said this morning, the president seems to be in poor health, but they really don't know the specifics yet.

"Due to his irregular work and rest schedule and diet over the years, as well as his self-abandonment of his spirit, Mr. Fu's body is now in a very deficient state."

“In particular, Mr. Fu’s stomach problems have become very serious in recent years. If he hadn’t been taking his medicine on time for the past six months, his health would probably be even worse. We have also checked, and it is believed that someone gave Mr. Fu medicine and acupuncture when he had the accident. Otherwise, Mr. Fu’s condition would only be worse now, and he might not wake up for several days.”

The doctor explained Fu Yunchuan's condition while flipping through the medical record in his hand.

When others heard the word "acupuncture," they all thought of Nanxing.

Lu Mingzhu clenched her fists, her eyes fixed on Fu Yunchuan. Only she knew the emotions churning within her.

"That's right. A doctor gave the president some medicine and told me to take him to the hospital immediately, otherwise his life would be in danger. But she didn't mention acupuncture to me."

As Jiang Bai spoke, he carefully recalled his conversation with Nan Xing, and indeed, he had not heard the young mistress mention acupuncture.

The doctor added, "That's probably because this person doesn't want you to know. We only discovered the acupuncture marks on his back when we were examining the president. We wouldn't have found them if there hadn't been a doctor who studied traditional Chinese medicine with us at the time."

Both Mrs. Fu and Madam Fu looked quite unwell. From Jiang Bai's conversation, they knew that the person must be Nan Xing.

"Xiaobai, is she alright?" Grandma Fu asked.

Since Fu Yunchuan had an accident, and Nanxing had spent time with Fu Yunchuan, it's normal for her to worry that something might happen to Nanxing.

"No, she's fine," Jiang Bai replied truthfully.

Grandma Fu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Mrs. Fu: "Doctor, when will my son wake up? Is he alright?"

"Mr. Fu will wake up in a few hours after he has rested well. But Madam, I strongly suggest that Mr. Fu take his health seriously and take the medicine prescribed by the doctor to help him recover. Otherwise, he may develop serious health problems in the future."

"Moreover, the best approach is to treat him with traditional Chinese medicine's gentle and nourishing methods, as traditional Chinese medicine would be more suitable for Mr. Fu's health."

The doctor explained everything clearly, and they didn't ask much about the traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. In general, the Fu family would find a more suitable person, or a more skilled traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, in such cases.

The doctor said a few more words about Fu Yunchuan's health before leaving with the nurse.

After the doctor left, Lu Mingzhu immediately went to the bedside, but Jiang Bai stopped her.

"Miss Lu, Mr. Fu is still resting. You should go back now."

"Jiang Bai, I want to stay here with him, is that alright? I won't be at ease until I see him wake up with my own eyes." Lu Mingzhu looked at Jiang Bai with a pleading expression.

If Jiang Bai hadn't already known what kind of person she was, he probably would have softened his heart because of her pitiful appearance.

“No need, Miss Lu. It’s not convenient for the president to have too many people here right now. Don’t worry, I’ll tell him you were here when he wakes up.” Jiang Bai said matter-of-factly, showing no intention of letting Lu Mingzhu stay any longer.

If it weren't for the fact that the president treated Lu Mingzhu differently, he would have thrown her out directly.

It seems the bodyguards at the door also need to be replaced, and we should give them some serious pointers.

Not just the bodyguards at the door, but all the bodyguards need to be reminded.

"But I'm worried. I'm just waiting for Brother Yun Chuan to wake up. I'm worried about him."

"Worried? What's there to worry about? Lu Mingzhu, I, Fu Yunchuan's mother, am right here. What are you worried about?" Madam Fu finally had a chance to look at Lu Mingzhu.

"Auntie, no, that's not what I meant. I was just worried about Brother Yunchuan." Lu Mingzhu shook her head at Madam Fu with a nervous and fearful expression. Anyone who didn't know better would think that Madam Fu had done something heinous to her.

In fact, although Madam Fu and the old lady disliked her over the years, they never harmed her or did anything to her. It was only after Lu Mingzhu returned from Nanxing that she pretended to be nice in front of them for various reasons, which led Madam Fu to warn Lu Mingzhu a few times.

They always held the belief that this was Fu Yunchuan's business and they didn't want to get involved. As long as Lu Mingzhu didn't show up in front of them, they would pretend they didn't see it.

But getting into the Fu family's old mansion is out of the question.

The old lady snorted coldly, her eyes, filled with the authority that comes with age, falling upon her.

"Worried about her? Fu Yunchuan has a biological mother and a biological grandmother here, as well as two close friends. What do you have to worry about? And by what right do you have to be worried?"

"Lu Mingzhu, do you mean to say that you think we, Fu Yunchuan's close family and friends, would hurt him?"

Jiang Bai didn't say anything, but he gave the old lady a thumbs up in his heart. Old ginger is spicier, and her words hit the nail on the head.

Lu Mingzhu's face turned pale, her expression filled with grief at Old Madam Fu's words.

"Okay, okay... Grandma, I understand. I know you don't like me, and I'll leave. But how can you say that I have no relationship with Brother Yunchuan? Brother Yunchuan and I have had such a long-standing relationship. Isn't it too hurtful for you to say that?"

"Too hurtful? Don't try that in front of me, an old lady. I've seen this kind of thing before your parents were even born!" The old lady retorted calmly to Lu Mingzhu.

In the past, she was too lazy to talk to Lu Mingzhu, and it was only because of Fu Yunchuan that she would pretend not to know Lu Mingzhu as long as she didn't appear in front of them.

But things are different now; she has to stand up for Nanxing, and there are three children to support.

The thought of how her three children looked last night made her heart ache terribly.

Jiang Bai and Gu Yihe remained silent, as it was not an opportune moment for them to speak.

“Lu Mingzhu, we have something to talk about now. You should go back to your ward quickly, so you don’t blame us if something goes wrong. As for your worries, don’t worry. After I’ve dealt with Fu Yunchuan’s matter, I’ll definitely have a good talk with you when I have time. Then you’ll know whether we really hate you or not.”

Madam Fu continued, saying that if she didn't need to find out about Fu Yunchuan's matter now, she would have plenty of time to have a good chat with Lu Mingzhu.

Lu Mingzhu clenched her fists, knowing she wouldn't get away with it here, or rather, these people would never let her stay.

Besides, Fu Yunchuan hasn't woken up yet, so there's no point in her staying here. As long as Brother Yunchuan knows she was here when he wakes up, that's enough. She has plenty of ways to handle other things.

"Okay, Grandma, Auntie, I'll head back now."

She then looked at Jiang Bai.

"Jiang Bai, thank you for taking care of Brother Yun Chuan. If anything happens to Brother Yun Chuan, you must tell me. Don't keep it from me like this time."

"I don't know why only Yun Chuan was injured when he and Doctor Bu Gui came down from the mountain together, while Doctor Bu Gui was fine and didn't come to the hospital with him. But I just want to know if Yun Chuan is okay now."

She looked at Fu Yunchuan on the hospital bed with deep affection. On the surface, she seemed to say these words unintentionally, but in her heart, she was thinking that she had made it so obvious that these people should be able to understand.

Old Mrs. Fu and Madam Fu's expressions did change, but not because Lu Mingzhu had successfully sown discord as Lu Mingzhu thought. Rather, they immediately realized that Lu Mingzhu was framing Nanxing and steer the conversation toward Nanxing.

Gu Yihe, whose eyes also changed, hadn't said a word since Lu Mingzhu came in.

"Miss Lu, how do you know that Yun Chuan and Bu Gui came down from the mountain together?" He stared directly at Lu Mingzhu, his eyes sharp and scrutinizing.

He had been operating in secret all along, and even when he sent people to look for Nanxing later, he covered up the traces very well. How could Lu Mingzhu possibly know?

Unless Lu Mingzhu has been following or monitoring them.

Everyone present was intelligent, and as soon as Gu Yihe spoke, they immediately looked at Lu Mingzhu.

Lu Mingzhu was surprised that Gu Yihe would seize on this word, and she felt a moment of panic, but she quickly calmed down.

However, Gu Yihe still caught the fleeting panic in her eyes.

“I’m just guessing. And no matter where the accident happened, the two of them were together. Why is it that only Yun Chuan was seriously injured, while Doctor Bu Gui was completely fine? As a doctor, he didn’t care about Yun Chuan. Is it wrong for me to worry about Yun Chuan?” Lu Mingzhu raised her hand to wipe away her tears.

Gu Yihe glanced at Lu Mingzhu, but did not refute her words. Instead, he had some more guesses and thoughts in his mind.

"Lu Mingzhu! You try slandering Dr. Bugui again!" Madam Fu's voice turned cold. "Didn't you hear what Jiang Bai said just now? If it weren't for Dr. Bugui giving Fu Yunchuan medicine and acupuncture, we don't know what Fu Yunchuan's condition would be like now!"

"Don't try these tricks on us. Dr. Bugui is my old lady's savior. If I hear any more of these slanderous words against Dr. Bugui, don't blame me for being impolite!" The old lady's face was also full of anger, and her disgust for Lu Mingzhu increased to another level.

Lu Mingzhu didn't expect things to turn out this way. She thought that after she said those things, the two women from the Fu family would develop a grudge against Nanxing, but she didn't expect that they would protect her in the end!

What means does Nanxing have that make these two people protect him so much, even disregarding their own son and grandson?

"Madam Fu, Auntie, how could you think of me like that? I didn't slander Dr. Bugui, I was just stating the facts. I'm sorry, I misspoke because I was worried."

"Never mind, it's all because I was too worried about Brother Yunchuan and said something I shouldn't have. It doesn't matter how much you...you can hate me, just don't get angry, lest you hurt your health."

She coughed twice, clutching her chest, as soon as she finished speaking, and then gasped for breath, as if she was having some difficulty breathing.

A-Kui immediately stepped forward to help Lu Mingzhu up.

"Miss, please take care of yourself. The doctor said you can't get excited right now."

"I'm fine, A-Kui, let's go." Lu Mingzhu leaned against A-Kui, her eyes still looking at Fu Yunchuan with reluctance, as if she was reluctant to leave but had no choice.

No one stopped her from leaving, or said a word when she left; they simply ignored her completely.

Sometimes, ignoring something can be extremely damaging, just like how Lu Mingzhu's mind was already twisted and somewhat ferocious at this moment.

"As long as you don't show up in front of us, we'll be fine," Madam Fu said bluntly.

If she hadn't still not figured out what happened with Fu Yunchuan, she really would have given Lu Mingzhu a good lesson in what it meant to be truly annoying.

Lu Mingzhu paused, said nothing, but gave A-Kui a look and quickly helped her leave.

She was afraid that if she didn't leave soon, Gu Yihe would keep asking her endless questions about how she knew that Brother Yun Chuan came down from the mountain.

Given Gu Yihe's intelligence, he would definitely give himself away if he said a few more words.

Gu Yihe's gaze followed Lu Mingzhu's retreating figure until she had completely left the ward before turning to Jiang Bai and asking:

"Jiang Bai, did you tell Lu Mingzhu about your departure last night? Or did Lu Mingzhu ask you about it? And did Yun Chuan reveal anything to her?"

His expression was serious and earnest; Lu Mingzhu's words had just made him suspicious.

Now it seems that Lu Mingzhu is really very strange.
