Lu Zhan rushed back from the army. Upon entering the Lu residence, he noticed that the atmosphere of the whole Lu Family couldn’t be more depressing.
“Big Brother.” The fourth son of the Lu Family stepped forward.
The others greeted him as well.
Lu Zhan kept walking. His sharp eyes stared straight ahead as he walked towards the operating theater. “How’s Mom?”
The fourth son of the Lu Family said, “She’s going through surgery. Yu Zhongjing is here.”
Lu Zhan was startled. “Who brought him here?”
“Chengzhou got his people to bring him here by force.” At the thought of Lu Chengzhou’s bandit-like actions, the fourth son was frightened and contemptuous of his actions.
Lu Zhan nodded approvingly, “Chengzhou did a good job. We should have brought him here earlier!”
The fourth son of the Lu Family awkwardly echoed his sentiment, “Yeah.”
They were all bandits!
…
Lu Chengzhou casually leaned out of the operating theater in a languid posture. He held a cigarette in his long and clean fingers, but it wasn’t lit.
He heard some footsteps and he slowly stood up straight and looked over. Seeing someone coming, he maintained a serious demeanor.
“Dad.”
Lu Zhan patted Lu Chengzhou’s shoulder. “How long has the operation been going on for?”
Lu Chengzhou replied, “Two hours.”
“That girl from last time is here also?” Lu Zhan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the door of the operating theater.
Lu Chengzhou didn’t answer his question but said insipidly, “It’s not Lu Xiwei. Grandma doesn’t even need craniotomy.”
Lu Zhan had never considered Western medicine to be better than traditional Chinese medicine. With thousands of years of medical skills passed down the generations, there must be some important elements that Western medicine did not account for.
He approved of Lu Chengzhou’s search for the Miracle Doctor. But he didn’t find the Miracle Doctor but Lu Shangjin recommended a doctor who was decent enough. The old grandmother was critically ill the last time. They had been at their wits’ end, so they made a Hail Mary effort.
Unexpectedly, the girl actually improved the old lady’s condition. But just when the old grandmother’s condition was thought to be under control, their own family member made it worsen.
Having been in the army for a long time, the moment his face became serious a thirst for blood permeated the air.
The fourth son of the Lu Family didn’t dare to utter a word.
“We have to keep this matter from the old grandmother. She won’t be able to take the news,” Lu Zhan said. “Teach Lu Xiwei a lesson to make her remember.”
Lu Chengzhou murmured assent contemplatively.
The clear, cold moon was suspended in the horizon.
The Lu residence was as bright as day. Even its dark silhouette was clearly illuminated.
It was quiet.
…
In the early morning the next day. The street lights were all turned off and the entire courtyard was brightly lit.
The morning mist lingered and the air was humid. At seven o’clock, the operating theater door finally opened from the inside.
After four hours of surgery.
Gu Mang took off the mask. Her lips were pale. Her eyes were bloodshot and menacing. The raised corner of her eyes made her look even more unfriendly.
Lu Chengzhou strode forward and he spoke in a whisper. “How is it?”
Gu Mang said nothing. She looked down as she undid her gown.
Yu Zhongjing said tiredly, “Stop disturbing the old lady. The blood clot is pretty much removed. We’ll make a prescription later. Follow it this time.”
Lu Zhan bowed. “Thank you, Yu.”
“Forget that! Give me the money! It’s more practical!” Yu Zhongjing scorned.
Just then, Lu Yī came with a vacuum flask and handed it to Lu Chengzhou.
“The temperature is just the way you like it.” Lu Chengzhou unscrewed the flask and passed it to Gu Mang.
Gu Mang threw the surgical gown into the wastebasket and turned to look. There was steam coming from the open flask and the smell of caramel milk tea permeated the air.
She glanced at Lu Chengzhou. Her eyes were not as chilly as usual.
Then, with a hoarse voice, she said, “Thanks.”
Lu Chengzhou smiled. “Get some sleep in my room for a while.”
Gu Mang took a sip of milk tea. Her lips were stained with some tea and she licked it off with her tongue. “Mm.”
