After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

As soon as Lu Sijian entered the living room, she saw that the family doctor was already waiting.

She immediately understood.

[Did the older brother specifically call the family doctor to have Lu Lingbo's leg checked?]

He's different from his father. His father is a patriarch with a strong and unyielding attitude, while he may appear strict on the surface, but he actually cares deeply for and loves his younger siblings.

He punished Lu Lingbai by making him kneel all night, but he himself also stayed up all night worrying about him.

[Amidst the strict coldness, there is also a hint of warmth.]

Lu Lingbai was taken aback. So his older brother was secretly concerned about him?

He looked at the faint dark circles under Lu Lingjun's eyes and was somewhat moved. "Brother, Liangyue is right. You have a stomach problem and need to get a proper checkup."

Lu Lingjun reeked of alcohol. He turned to look at Lu Sijian and asked, "A-Jian, how are you?"

The family doctor smiled and said, "Alright, let me take a look at all three of you."

After all, the three siblings of the Lu family each have their own problems.

Lu Lingjun doesn't flush easily when drinking, but his face turns paler the more he drinks. His body lacks alcohol-degrading enzymes, making him prone to getting drunk or suffering from alcohol poisoning.

I guess I developed a stomach problem from years of busy work and irregular eating habits, and my stomach started hurting as soon as I started drinking alcohol.

Lu Lingbo's ankle fracture is not healing well. He needs to have an X-ray taken and a new plaster cast made for fixation. For now, we can only treat the knee injury caused by kneeling for too long.

Lu Sijian was the most normal of the three. Although she was weak, she had only drunk one cup and could recover after drinking some hangover soup and resting.

After the family doctor finished treating me, prescribed some medicine, and left, I was discharged.

After drinking the hangover soup, Lu Sijian got up and went upstairs to rest.

"What is this?" The maid came over to tidy up and was stunned when she saw the medicine bottle on the coffee table.

Lu Lingbai recognized the bottle of hangover medicine that Mu Liangyue had given to Lu Sijian, and was about to speak.

“It’s A-Jian who forgot to take it, give it to me,” Lu Lingjun said.

Just as he picked up the medicine bottle, Wang Ma came over and said, "Young Master, I'm going upstairs anyway, I'll take this to Miss."

Lu Lingjun frowned slightly, but still placed the medicine bottle on the tray in Wang Ma's hands.

Lu Lingbo thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, Wang Ma is a very nice person. She is always thinking about A-Jian. However, she was originally hired by Father to be A-Jian's nanny."

Lu Lingjun remained noncommittal.

"Although Aunt Wang can sometimes act on her own initiative, she doesn't actually have any bad intentions..."

Lu Lingjun pressed his long fingers to his temples: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Lu Lingbo was stunned. He didn't know why he suddenly wanted to tell his older brother these things.

Even though the eldest brother didn't show any dissatisfaction with Wang Ma, he still couldn't help but feel nervous.

She was always worried that her elder brother would be angry and would suspect that Wang Ma was the one spreading rumors because of Mu Liangyue's words at the He family banquet.

This worry was inexplicable and without any reason; even he himself couldn't explain why.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that Aunt Wang is a nice person..."

“If Wang Ma were just a nice person, she wouldn’t have had the chance to stay by A Jian’s side,” Lu Lingjun interrupted him.

He didn't have time to listen to Lu Lingbai's evaluation of a nanny, so he turned around and went upstairs.

Lu Lingbai slowly sat down on the sofa. He thought for a moment and realized that the reason he spoke up for Wang Ma was probably because he felt guilty.

After all, he was the one who first suspected Wang Ma, and he always felt that Wang Ma was abusing her power and spreading rumors.

But Wang Ma didn't spread rumors at all; the one who really spread rumors was Shen Baolin.

My sister's true feelings were not lying. She didn't even know she could hear her own thoughts, so how could she lie?

He was too extreme; he was unwilling to truly understand the truth of the matter and was too eager to convict his sister.

-

The next day was the weekend, and Lin Yuxi came over early in the morning.

When Lu Sijian came down for breakfast, she saw Lu Lingjun sitting there coordinating work with Lin Yuxi.

Having just finished his work, Lu Lingjun got up and left.

Lin Yuxi said with a smile, "Young Master is so busy that he doesn't care about his health at all. Today he actually decided to take two days off over the weekend to get a full-body check-up. It must be thanks to Miss."

Lu Sijian remained silent for a moment, without responding.

"Was it Miss who advised Young Master to take care of his health?" Lin Yuxi asked, somewhat bewildered by the silence. Had she said something wrong?

Why should I try to persuade him? If I were to advise him, I should be to encourage him to work harder. After all, he's not even thirty yet; it's the perfect time for him to strive and work hard.

Why would a workaholic suddenly decide to take a break for a medical checkup? Could it be that he's been diagnosed with cancer prematurely?

Should I try to stop this?

Lu Lingbai's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly smoothed things over: "I was the one who advised my brother to rest well and get a check-up last night. After all, my brother is the pillar of the family now and he's been working too hard."

[Heh, what a self-aggrandizing move. Big Brother only decided to take a break for his medical checkup because of Mu Liangyue.]

Lu Lingbai: "..."

“I also think that my brother is overworked and should take a good rest for a while.” Lu Sijian suddenly said with concern.

She turned to Lu Lingjun, who was walking over, and said, "Big brother, shall we go on vacation?"

Lu Lingjun: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid that won't work. I have too many things to do at the company."

Lu Sijian put on a look of disappointment.

Lu Lingjun looked at his younger sister with a helpless expression, "Big brother promises you, I'll take you abroad to play when I have time in the future, okay? We'll take a cruise to Antarctica then."

Antarctica? You'd be better off going there yourself; after all, that's where you'd end up, the glaciers are desolate and cold, perfect for you.

Lu Lingbai's face turned a little green. Why was his sister always thinking about whether she was dead or alive?

However, he silently made a mental note: his elder brother must not go to Antarctica, no matter what!

Lu Lingjun picked up his teacup to hide the thoughtful look in his eyes.

Antarctica? What kind of prophecy did A-Jian possess, or was she just making fun of it?

After a while, he put down his water glass and said gently to Lu Sijian, "Have you discussed the He family matter with Lou Xiao?"

Lu Sijian shook her head; there was no need for communication in the first place.

Lu Lingjun looked disapproving. "Even married couples need to communicate more, let alone you two who are just dating."

“I didn’t deal with this last night because I thought that if someone else relayed it, there would be a misunderstanding. You should explain it to Lou Xiao yourself.”

"If you don't make things clear first, what if Lou Xiao has a preconceived notion?"

He sighed, "Forget it, I'll talk to Lou Xiao about this."

-

"Brother, I understand. Thank you for helping me explain what happened."

Lou Xiao wasn't surprised to receive Lu Lingjun's call.

He learned of what happened to the He family immediately.

He kept waiting for Lu Sijian to take the initiative to explain to him; as long as she was willing to explain, he was willing to believe her.

Unfortunately, a day passed, and all he received was disappointment.

Lu Lingjun's explanation was not problematic, but he would not blindly believe only one side.

"Zhao Ke, tell me what exactly happened." He dialed Zhao Ke's number.

Zhao Ke had been waiting for a long time. He had called yesterday, but Lou Xiao didn't want to listen, so he had to keep quiet.

"Brother Xiao, Wen Yuan is right next to me. Let him come and talk to you in person."
