After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

The next morning, Lu Sijian went downstairs and saw a suitcase placed in the living room, indicating that someone was going on a long trip.

"Ah Jian!" Lu Ting saw her in the restaurant and quickly waved.

Lu Sijian walked over and was surprised to see Lu Lingjun there as well.

The other person sat upright in the dining chair, with a cold and gloomy demeanor, and was cutting the steak on the plate with a knife and fork with his eyes down.

Lu Sijian stopped and called out, "Big Brother."

Lu Lingjun placed the cut steak on Lu Sijian's seat, saying, "Ah Jian, I've cut the steak for you."

The moment he looked up, his eyes were filled with icy disgust.

Lu Sijian's expression changed slightly, and she politely but distantly declined, "No need, please eat it yourself, brother."

Lu Ting looked at Lu Lingjun with some suspicion and said, "Since it's your elder brother's kind gesture, you should try a bite."

Lu Lingjun blinked, his expression quickly returning to normal, as if everything that had just happened was merely Lu Sijian's illusion.

Lu Ting continued, "Lingjun, I'll be away from home for the next few days, so please take good care of the family and your sister."

"Yes, Father." Lu Lingjun sat back in his seat, as if he had transformed back into the obedient and submissive eldest son.

Lu Sijian walked over and affectionately took Lu Ting's arm. "Dad, are you going on a business trip? But isn't your health not suitable for traveling? I'm worried about you."

Lu Ting: "This time it's not going abroad, so there's no need for a long flight. You can ask Uncle Fu if you don't believe me."

Uncle Fu said, "There's a resort project in the capital. They've invited you to inspect it. You'll probably be gone for about three days and will be back soon."

He could see the undercurrents between the two children, but there was nothing he could do about it.

His previous conversation with Sheng Yunchao had filled him with doubts.

It just so happened that Lu Ting couldn't do without him and insisted that he come along. He also wanted to take the opportunity to go to the capital to investigate the old events of that year.

As for the Lu family...

Whether it's Lu Sijian or Lu Lingjun, they are both good children in Uncle Fu's eyes.

He didn't believe that the two children would kill each other.

Two of the Lu family's four children have already been injured. If the remaining two are willing to sit down and have an open and honest talk, perhaps they can resolve their grudges.

This breakfast was quite enjoyable.

Lu Ting was content with having a daughter, while Lu Sijian was probably reluctant to part with her again, probably thinking about the impending separation.

While the father and daughter were talking, Lu Lingjun quietly ate her breakfast with her head down, only occasionally being asked by Lu Ting to pour water or hand tissues to her younger sister.

Even after finishing breakfast and as he was about to leave, Lu Ting didn't mention his other two sons at all.

Uncle Fu did ask a few questions, though it had been confirmed what kind of poison it was and the hospital had formed an expert team to quickly detoxify it, but Lu Lingchen was still in the ICU.

"Thank goodness, everyone's alright." Uncle Fu sighed.

Lu Lingjun's voice was tense. It was probably only when his younger brother was mentioned that this mature young master showed a hint of panic.

"Although Xiao Chen woke up once in the middle, the doctor said that the time he was awake was very short and he has now fallen into a coma again... Even though the poison has been neutralized, he just can't wake up, and the doctor doesn't know why."

Uncle Fu couldn't help but feel a little nervous: "Oh? Is it that serious? Is there something wrong with your brain? Should we call a neurosurgeon...?"

Lu Sijian was in a coma for three years because she injured her brain.

How could the Lu family not be afraid of such a thing?

As he spoke, Uncle Fu stopped in his tracks.

Lu Ting, who was walking ahead, frowned, a hint of impatience in his eyes. "What's this? He's only been unconscious for 24 hours. Back then, A-Jian issued several critical condition notices..."

“Sir!” Uncle Fu called out.

Regardless, it's inappropriate for a father to say such things; it's too hurtful to his son.

And wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire? It would only make the young master have even more complaints about the young lady.

Lu Ting paused for a moment, then casually comforted him, "Now that the poison has been neutralized, just wait for him to wake up. Trust the doctor and don't scare yourself."

The tone was indifferent; it was less of a consolation and more of a perfunctory response.

Lu Lingjun slowly clenched his fist. "Yes, Father."

Before getting into the car, Lu Ting glanced at Lu Sijian and said, "Baby, take care of yourself. When I get back, I'll take you on a skiing vacation."

Lu Sijian sighed inwardly.

People who make such bold predictions usually end up getting into trouble.

Either something happens to me, and Lu Ting, a parent outliving their child, will suffer the loss; or something happens to Lu Ting. Either way, it's definitely not going to happen.

Lu Lingjun gave her a cold look. Something happened?

If he remembered correctly, she had revealed in her initial thoughts that the Lu family would go bankrupt, and only Lu Ting and Uncle Fu would escape unscathed.

It's obvious that Lu Ting is unlikely to be in any trouble, so the only one who could be in trouble at this point is herself.

The car slowly drove out of the courtyard. Lu Ting took one last look at his eldest son and rolled up the car window.

Lu Sijian looked up at the sky above her.

A rosy dawn on a winter morning is not a good omen.

Sure enough, the sky soon darkened, a gloomy oppressive atmosphere hanging overhead, creating a somber and cold ambiance.

"Young Master, Young Miss, the car is ready." The butler came over.

Sensing that something was off between the siblings, he spoke cautiously.

Lu Sijian glanced at Lu Lingjun. The siblings' eyes met, one cold and the other indifferent.

In the end, the two left without saying a word, one going to work and the other to school.

-

Lu Sijian had a feeling that something was going to happen today.

She had just arrived at the school when she received a call from Professor Li, asking her to come to his office.

You could tell from the tone of his voice that it wasn't anything good.

Lu Sijian knocked on the office door, then pushed it open and almost bumped into the person rushing towards her.

Just one glance was enough to be so impactful that she almost burst out laughing without any sense of propriety.

"What are you laughing at?" He Wenyuan said angrily.

Lu Sijian felt that she should be a well-mannered person in front of the school leaders, so she turned her head to calm herself down and said, "I'm sorry."

She looked up and, sure enough, saw several more pig-faced faces.

Zhao Ke, He Wenyuan, and Zhu Jinming were all there, but she didn't see Gu Sheng's face. Instead, she saw Gu Sheng's assistant, and she was somewhat surprised by the last figure.

Why is Lou Xiao here too?

Lou Xiao came over, of course, to stop Zhao Ke and He Wenyuan from making things worse.

When Mu Liangyue learned that the two were going to complain to the school, she hurriedly called Lou Xiao and asked him to help dissuade her two friends.

Lou Xiaolai intercepted the two at the school gate, but he didn't expect that these two were not the only ones causing trouble for Lu Sijian.

When the security personnel saw Zhao Ke and He Wenyuan, they stopped them and asked them to go to the school leaders' office, saying that someone was looking for them.

As soon as they entered, they saw a freshly baked pig's head face.

Zhu Jinming did not come alone; Gu Sheng's assistant came with him.

Lou Xiao was speechless with shock when he heard that Lu Sijian had even dared to target Zhu Jinming and Gu Sheng.

Things have escalated to this point, and he can no longer control them.
