After checking the construction progress at the South Suburb Manor, Yun Zijin didn’t stay long. After a word with Mei Lin, she left with Zero One and his team of seven.
While Yun Zijin was on her way back to Jade Lake, she received a call from Lu Yunque.
But what Yun Zijin found strange was that Lu Yunque actually wanted her to go to a sanatorium funded and established by the Lu Family.
Yun Zijin racked her brain but couldn’t think of any reason why she and Lu Yunque would need to talk at a sanatorium.
However, since Lu Yunque had gone to the trouble of calling her specifically, Yun Zijin had no choice but to tell Zero One to change course for Lu’s Sanatorium.
Lu’s Sanatorium placed a high value on patient privacy, and no one was allowed in without a pass.
When Yun Zijin arrived at the entrance to Lu’s Sanatorium, she could only park in a temporary spot on the side and call Lu Yunque.
Lu Yunque answered almost instantly, as if he had been waiting right by his phone.
"Hey... I’m at the gate, but I can’t get in."
With that one sentence, Yun Zijin subtly put the guards on the spot.
It was only then that Lu Yunque remembered the sanatorium staff didn’t know Yun Zijin. He quickly apologized to her, then started running toward the entrance while calling the gate guards.
From his hospital bed, Lu Yunzhou watched his brother run out in a panic, a look of surprise on his face.
It was the first time he had ever seen his younger brother so flustered.
So he looked toward Lu Xianzhang and Huo Yue Lan, who were sitting on the other side of the bed.
"It must be Zijin. With your condition... we could only have Zijin come see you."
Thinking of her eldest son’s current state, Huo Yue Lan couldn’t stop the tears from welling up.
’Of all people... why did it have to be my son?!’
"Mom, don’t be sad. Didn’t the doctor say that as long as I cooperate with the treatment, there’s still a chance I can stand again?"
Although that hope was slim, no different from waiting for a miracle.
"I... I... My eyes won’t listen to me. I can’t control them..."
Huo Yue Lan desperately wiped at her tears, trying to make them stop, but it was no use.
Lu Xianzhang patted Huo Yue Lan’s back, trying to comfort her.
Seeing his mother like this, Lu Yunzhou felt terrible, but there was nothing he could do.
Meanwhile, after Lu Yunque’s call to the guards, Yun Zijin and Zero One’s team of seven were finally allowed into the sanatorium.
But Yun Zijin still didn’t know where to go, so she could only call Lu Yunque again.
However, before Yun Zijin could make the call, Lu Yunque was already calling her.
This time, Lu Yunque gave her clear directions over the phone and told her he was already on his way out to meet her.
Worried they might miss each other, Yun Zijin found a parking spot not far from the entrance and had Zero One and the others park the cars to wait for Lu Yunque to find them.
Lu Yunque ran all the way out. By the time he reached where Yun Zijin was parked, a fine sheen of sweat had broken out on his forehead.
Seeing Yun Zijin’s two very distinctive cars, Lu Yunque finally breathed a sigh of relief. He walked up, opened the car door, got in, and sat down next to Yun Zijin in the back seat.
This was the first time Lu Yunque had been in Yun Zijin’s exclusive car. When he saw the interior, a flash of amazement crossed his eyes.
The exterior looked plain and unremarkable, but the interior was stunning.
"You still haven’t told me why you suddenly asked me to come to the sanatorium."
Lu Yunque’s silence was driving Yun Zijin’s curiosity wild; the suspense was killing her, like an itch she couldn’t scratch.
"It’s my brother..."
Yun Zijin was full of questions. ’What does this have to do with his brother?’
"My brother used to serve in the military district. He was injured during an unexpected accident on a recent mission."
"We’ve been in constant contact, and ever since he found out I had a girlfriend, he’s been saying he wanted to meet you. I never thought you’d finally meet under these circumstances."
Thinking about the injuries Lu Yunzhou had sustained, Lu Yunque’s heart ached.
