At the dining table, the atmosphere was quiet.
Ning Li picked up a piece of carrot and placed it into Yu Pingchuan’s bowl.
“Please eat more.”
Yu Pingchuan wanted to say something but stopped himself. He did not move his chopsticks.
Ning Li smiled slightly.
“It seems that the food that was prepared today is not to your taste.”
“How can that be!”
Yu Pingchuan immediately ate the piece of carrot,
“Ah Li’s food is delicious!”
Ning Li nodded in satisfaction. “It’s good that you like it.”
Yu Pingchuan choked.
Lin Yaohui was eating quietly at the side, completely unwilling to face this tragedy in the human world.
‘When he had seen Yu Pingchuan bring those things back, he had already known that it would not end well!
He had been taught a lesson so many times, yet his memory had never improved. It was no wonder that Ning Li had called Jinse Bay directly.
This was great.
Not only was he done for, but that person had also been involved.
Lin Yaohui silently shed a tear of sympathy Yu Pingchuan in his heart.
“Ah… Ah Li… just went for a medical check-up a while ago. Can I not go?”
Yu Pingchuan stammered as he asked.
Ning Li thought for a moment. She seemed to not want to make things difficult for him and nodded.
“That’s fine. Then we’ll just need to register for one account tomorrow.”
Yu Pingchuan,
‘That person was definitely going tomorrow. If he, the “main culprit’, did not go…
“It’s… It’s better to go then…”
Yu Pingchuan muttered as he accepted his fate.
Ning Li replied with a”Hmm”.
“Other than the blood and urine tests, we’ll also get the CT scans and others done one by one.”
Yu Pingchuan was surprised.
“Huh? So many?”
This was… for real.
“Since we’re going, we might as well do a full set in one go.”
Ning Li’s tone was calm, but she was very determined.
Yu Pingchuan, “… Oh.”
It looked like he would not be able to escape.
Thinking of this, he felt a little better.
Anyway, he would not be the only one suffering!
After finishing the meal, Ning Li prepared to go downstairs.
‘When she left, she did not forget to take the two big bags of fruits away.
Since they were from Jinse Bay, it would not be good to throw them away. The best choice was for her to fix the situation.
Feeling helpless, Yu Pingchuan watched her leave.
Once the door was closed, he let out a long sigh and could not help but smack his own mouth.
“That’s what I… It wasn’t easy to bring it back… I didn’t even get to eat it!”
Lin Yaohui looked at him with sympathy on his face.
“Teacher Yu, do you still have the time to think about this?
“Have you thought about what you should do when you meet that person at First Affiliated Hospital tomorrow?”
Yu Pingchuan’s expression froze.
The next day.
The black Bentley slowly drove out of Rongyue Mansion.
Yi Bin glanced at the rearview mirror.
‘The man sitting in the back seat was wearing a black suit paired with a white shirt. His attire was extremely formal.
He leaned against the back of the chair with his long legs crossed. His posture was noble and languid.
He was feeling quite emotional.
Even when Lu Huaiyu went to the Lu Corporation, he would not necessarily dress so formally. It could be seen how much importance they placed on what they planned to do today.
“Let’s go to Jinse Bay.”
Lu Huaiyu said.
As expected.
In fact, Yi Bin had already vaguely guessed that he would say this, so he was not surprised. He immediately drove straight to Jinse Bay.
Half an hour later, the black Bentley arrived at Jinse Bay.
After entering the residential area, they drove for a distance before finally stopping in front of a single-family villa.
Lu Huaiyu pushed the car door open and got out.
He came to the front door of the villa and pressed the doorbell.
Soon, a man who looked to be in his forties walked out.
‘When he saw Lu Huaiyu, he was a little surprised.
“Second Master Lu?”
Lu Huaiyu nodded.
“Uncle Xin.”
Xin Wu smiled.
“Second Master Lu hasn’t been here in a while. Today…”
“Icame to visit Elder Mei today,” Lu Huaiyu said.
“ah,” Xin Wu said.
“This… is such a coincidence. Elder Mei just went out.”
Lu Huaiyu frowned.
“Elder Mei is not at home?”
According to Elder Mei’s habit, he should be resting at home today.
He had purposely chosen today, yet unexpectedly, he was not at home?
“Yes.” Xin Wu looked apologetic. “I’m really sorry.”
Lu Huaiyu paused.
“Then, how long will it be before Elder Mei is back? I can wait.”
Xin Wu shook his head.
“Elder Mei went for a medical check-up. He won’t be back for a while. If Second Master Lu wants to wait, it will probably take a long time.”
“A medical check-up? Is Elder Mei not feeling well?”
“That’s not it. It’s just…”
Xin Wu pondered, not knowing how to explain. After receiving a phone call last night, Elder Mei, who was in good health, had left the house in a hurry this morning.
“As you know, Elder Mei is old. It’s always good to pay more attention.”
He awkwardly found an excuse.
Lu Huaiyu nodded in understanding.
‘That was true…
Xin Wu asked curiously, “Second Master Lu, did you have something urgent to discuss with him? Why don’t I give Elder Mei a call?”
“There’s no need.”
Lu Huaiyu shook his head.
“It was an oversight on my part. I should have informed you before coming over.”
He had assumed that Elder Mei would definitely be at home today. However, he had not expected to miss him, just like that.
“But there is indeed a reason that I came here today.”
‘As Lu Huaiyu spoke, he looked at Xin Wu with a rare tone of seriousness and politeness.
“Icame here to ask for the painting that I came to see previously.”
Xin Wu was stunned.
“You mean… But you do know that Elder Mei has said that the painting is not for sale.”
Lu Huaiyu had expressed his desire to buy that painting the last time he had come, but he had politely been rejected by Elder Mei.
Xin Wu had thought that he had given up, but he did not expect that he would come again after such a long time.
Lu Huaiyu smiled.
“Yes, I know. But that painting is really important to me, so I wanted to come again to beg for it.”
If it did not work the first time, try again a second time.
If the second time was unsuccessful as well, try a third time.’
Xin Wu’s heart skipped a beat.
This was the first time he had heard the word “beg” from this person’s mouth.
Lu Huaiyu said, “Since Elder Mei is not here today, I will come back another day.”
