Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The day after Lu Ning was discharged from the hospital, she was already preparing to go to school. Shen Yunci and Lu Zhizhi were extremely worried.
Early in the morning, they chased after her and tried to persuade her.
“Ningning, rest for a couple more days! It’s fine to miss classes for a day or so.
If you can’t get into university, so be it. Daddy and Mommy can support you.”
Lu Ning could not help but chuckle as she packed her things. “Mom, I’m already an adult, I have to support myself. I haven’t gone to class or work for many days, and I didn’t get my salary this past month. If I don’t earn money, how can we pay the mortgage? I’m fine, it’s alright.”
Shen Yunci did not know what to say.
“My darling, you don’t have to worry about the mortgage. With the two of us around it wont be a problem, our family situation isn’t that worrying. Besides, didn’t you give Mommy a lot of money last time? We can use it for a long time.
“Hurry up and go to rest. The doctor said that you need time to recover, so don’t strain yourself, you got that?”
Lu Ning still continued to pack “I know, I won’t strain myself, don’t worry.”
Lu Zhi could not help but say, “That’s not it, Ningning. Look, there are so many people bumping into each other in school. What if you hurt yourself?” got up to get her things, and the two of them chased after her.
“Mom, Dad, it’s not like I’m made of porcelain, a couple bumps won’t hurt me. Besides, I’m not some precious little princess, a bunch of rough bumps here and there will help me grow. Don’t worry, I promise to return safely.” As she spoke, she took her accessories and her bag and was about to leave.
“Wait, hold on a second! Daddy will send you there, pass Daddy your bag. You can’t carry it.”
Lu Ning looked at their overcautiousness with a hint of helplessness.
Before she left, she did not forget to remind her, “Mom, why don’t you quit your job? It’s too dangerous. Your hand hasn’t fully recovered yet, I’ll find you another job in a few days.”
Shen Yunci looked at her with a mix of heartache and vexation. “You keep talking about me even though you wont listen to us. You’re so inobedient, yet you still worry about Mom’s work.”
Lu Ning smiled and leaned over to peck her on the cheek “Don’t get angry, you’ll get wrinkles. Work does that to you too so don’t do it anymore. We’ll talk about it later.”
“Okay, okay, I got it.”
The family followed her downstairs. Lu Jingzhi held Lu Nings hand.
“Sister, you have to be careful.”
Lu Ning smiled and caressed his face. “Got it.”
Lu Jingzhi looked at her earnestly. “Also, remember the safe distance.”
Lu Ning could not help but laugh. “Yes, I’ll keep that in mind.”
Only then did Lu Jingzhi let go in relief.
Lu Zhi was concerned about her and wanted to send and fetch her from school. Lu Ning did not want them to worry too much, so she reluctantly accepted. Along the way, Lu Zhi nagged about many things she had to take note of.
Lu Ning sat at the back and smiled, repeatedly saying that she would remember.
When they reached the school gate, they coincidentally bumped into Ltl Yue’an again.
Lu Ning had already gone in after saying goodbye to Lu Zhi.
Lù Yue’an looked at Lu Nings back and turned to greet Lu Zhi, who was about to leave.
“Dad.
Lu Zhi was turning the scooter around when he heard the voice and turned to look at Lù Yue’an, who was walking over.
He did not reply, and simply said, “Change the way you address me in the future. Focus on your lessons.”
With that, he rode away on his electric scooter.
Lù Yue’an stood rooted to the ground. She bit her lower lip and subconsciously tightened her grip.
Lu Ning headed to the infirmary first.
When she opened the door, she was alone at the door, while there were three people inside. All four of them were dumbfounded.
Gu Zi was the first to shout, “Why are you here?!”
After Lu Ning came to her senses, she ignored him. Instead, she looked at the person who was trying to hide and immediately strode in.
“Sixth Brother!
