After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.
Chapter 60 How many times have you visited me?
“My grandma has difficulty walking, how can she go?” He Wenyuan retorted loudly.
How could she have the nerve to make such a demand of an elderly person? Doesn't she fear being struck by lightning?
Lu Sijian: "Oh, you're quite agile. How many times have you come to visit me?"
The answer, of course, is never.
This group keeps saying they care about me, but they're all running away as fast as they can, wishing they could stay out of my way.
[If that's the case, then just avoid me. After all, acting out caring doesn't necessarily mean you're a great actor, so why force it?]
He Wenyuan's face was grim. Why should she be the one to visit her?
Besides, he would find it unlucky to visit someone who is in a vegetative state.
At another table, Zhao Ke discreetly picked up his glass and took a sip of wine.
Before Lu Sijian's accident, the group of them had already started investing with Lou Xiao, and they all treated Lou Xiao's fiancée as a younger sister.
When Zhao Ke learned of her accident, he was also saddened, but one must always look forward.
Time keeps pushing people forward. Three years later, the news of Lu Sijian waking up no longer brought any joy to the brothers.
On the contrary, his first reaction was that it was troublesome.
Xiao Ge's power and status today are incomparable to what they were three years ago, but Lu Sijian is trying to bind Lou Xiao to her for life with just a marriage contract. How can this not make him anxious?
To put it bluntly, Lu Sijian suffered such a serious injury that it's unclear whether there will be any long-term effects. What if she can't have children in the future? Wouldn't that be a burden on Xiao Ge for the rest of his life?
Noticing Lu Lingbo's gaze sweeping over, Zhao Ke coughed lightly, "Lingbo, you know we're all very busy."
Lu Lingbai nodded subconsciously, then frowned.
He only suffered a broken ankle. Although everyone was busy, they all went to visit him at the Lu family home one after another.
However, after my sister underwent rehabilitation in the hospital for more than two months, very few people came to visit her.
Zhao Ke glanced at Lu Lingjun, who was sitting at the head of the table, and then remembered his favoritism that day.
"Actually, with your whole family spoiling her and taking care of her, and with Brother Xiao caring for her so much, there's no need for us to visit her at all..."
Lu Lingbai's expression suddenly froze.
Was he with her? Only he knew that he wasn't.
Everyone in the Lu family is very busy. No matter how heartbroken they were at the beginning, three years have passed and everyone has started a new life.
My father is stationed at the overseas headquarters in Europe year-round, and it's rare to see him even once a year; my eldest brother is also too busy to leave his post abroad.
After his younger brother Lu Lingchen became a sensation, his schedule was packed until the end of the year, and even he could only follow Lu Lingchen's information online.
They all seemed to be in a hurry, exchanging a few words of concern before leaving again.
Even he himself preferred to work overtime at the company rather than go home.
He suddenly remembered Sheng Yunchao's question and Xie Qinglan's words that he was not up to standard. His heart felt like it was being covered by a large net, and he suddenly felt a little breathless.
Grandma He's face darkened: "Although we didn't visit you, I went to the temple to burn incense and pray for your well-being."
Isn't this more sincere than visiting someone in the hospital?
Lu Sijian smiled and said, "So the reason I recovered so quickly is because you, Fourth Aunt, prayed for me."
Grandma He: "Of course, if I hadn't burned incense and prayed to Buddha for your protection, you wouldn't have been able to wake up."
Lu Sijian extended her hand to Old Mrs. He.
Grandma He was somewhat displeased: "What are you doing?"
The Lu Sijian of the past would never have dared to be so presumptuous in front of her.
Sun Tzu was absolutely right. She fell ill and, taking advantage of saving someone, started to act arrogantly and try to take advantage of Lou Xiao.
How could a woman like that be worthy of entering the Lou family? When Lou Xiao comes back, she will definitely give him a good scolding!
"Where are the amulets?" Lu Sijian asked blankly. "If you were praying for blessings, you should have gotten quite a few amulets and talismans for me, right? Didn't you get any?"
[Old lady, at least put on an act! Don't you get embarrassed trying so hard to save face?]
[She used to make empty promises to Lou Xiao, saying she'd give me family heirloom jade pendants and blessed jadeite, but in reality, she never gave me anything.]
[Only Lou Xiao, with his brain not working properly, would take your empty promises; I'm not buying them.]
Grandma He was so angry that her face turned ashen. After a long while, she said, "What's the rush? I was planning to give it to you later."
She paused, then added, "You probably don't understand, but asking for a good luck charm like this directly can affect our family's luck, but I won't hold it against you..."
"Then I don't want it." Lu Sijian readily agreed and immediately put her hand down.
Grandma He was a little smug. She had more experience than the old lady, so she was sure she could handle her.
Lu Sijian: "After all, if I take your good luck charm, and your company's stock price plummets tomorrow, I'll be in big trouble."
She was joking.
Although she had a smile on her face and a gentle voice, the He family members sitting at the main table all changed their expressions, feeling that her words were somewhat unlucky.
"Well, Lu Sijian, you're cursing us!" He Wenyuan seized on the mistake and immediately jumped in. "My grandma only said a few words to you, is it necessary for you to retaliate with such words?"
Lu Sijian said calmly, "I was just using an analogy. Your company's stock price is unlikely to plummet tomorrow."
He Wenyuan was furious: "...What if they really jump into the water?"
Lu Sijian looked at him in surprise, "You're an adult, can't you have some discernment? The stock market is closed tomorrow because it's the weekend."
He Wenyuan: "..."
"I've never heard of Lou Xiao's fiancée being so sharp-tongued before," He Zhilong said, slamming his wine glass down.
He is He Wenyuan's father. He Wenyuan has three older sisters. This son was hard-won, and the whole family doted on him.
Otherwise, He Wenyuan wouldn't have developed such an unruly personality.
Seeing his son turn pale after being rebuked, the father couldn't hold back any longer.
He looked up at Lu Lingjun, "Lingjun, what do you think?"
He meant that, as the eldest brother, Lu Lingjun should discipline his younger sister properly, as she is like a father to him.
Lu Lingjun picked up the wine dispenser, poured himself a glass of baijiu, and drank it all in one gulp. "A-Jian isn't feeling well, so I apologize on her behalf. I hope you can forgive me, Uncle."
As the younger generation, He Zhilong drank three cups of baijiu before his complexion improved slightly.
The people present quickly smoothed things over, their eyes filled with admiration as they looked at Lu Lingjun.
In fact, given the Lu family's current status, it's normal for them not to care about the He family.
Lu Lingjun was quite humble and polite to everyone, without any of the impetuousness typical of young people.
Someone joked, "I heard that President Lu cherishes his sister like the apple of his eye, and seeing it today, it's really true."
This younger sister, however, is exceptionally immature and doesn't live up to her reputation.
Lu Ting used to cherish his daughter and dote on her to the extreme, while he was indifferent to his son. Today it seems that his son is indeed the one he can rely on.
The crowd warmed up considerably, and they all toasted Lu Lingjun, taking the opportunity to get closer to him.
Mu Liangyue watched from afar, somewhat lost in thought. She was a little worried about Lu Lingjun, after all, he had a history of stomach problems.
