The First Lady sobbed. “It’s… It’s possible that he has become infertile.”


  Eldest Master Lu’s expression instantly turned livid. “He only lost some blood, why would he end up becoming infertile?”


  If his son could not have children, how was he to face his ancestors?!

  “I don’t know either, I don’t know… Wuuuu…”


  Eldest Master Lu got even angrier. Veins bulged out from his forehead and he roared at the phone. “Shut up and stop crying so easily. Immediately hand the phone to Zhiheng’s attending doctor and get him to explain what is going on to me.”


  The First Madam sobbed for some time before the attending doctor’s voice sounded from the phone. “Eldest Master Lu.”


  “Tell me about Zhiheng’s condition and be detailed.”


  It was not known what the attending doctor said to him, but Eldest Master Lu’s expression seemed as if he had been struck by lightning.

  Lu Jianlin saw Eldest Master Lu who suddenly staggered and he asked, “What’s the matter?”


  Eldest Master Lu hung up the phone and with an expression as if he had suffered a great setback, he turned to look at Lu Jianlin. He who always believed that he ought to establish his might as an elder brother before his two younger brothers suddenly became weak as his eyes reddened.

  Lu Jianlin got a fright.

  “Brother, what happened?”


  Eldest Master Lu’s lips trembled and he only managed to get the words out of his mouth after some time had passed. “Zhiheng had been previously hospitalized in the past due to excessive fatigue and when?Qinglian

  ?visited, she fed him random nourishing food.

  “Coupled with how he injured his artery today and lost too much blood, because he has harmed his foundation with the incorrect nourishing food and being overworked, he will be equivalent to a cripple in the future.”


  Lu Jianlin revealed an expression of disbelief.

  “How did this happen? For his case, won’t it do if he just nourishes and recuperates properly?”


  “No…” Eldest Master Lu touched his face. Clearly, he was not done with the whole explanation of the situation.

  He seemed to have struggled for a few seconds before he said, “It seems that Zhiheng has been poisoned before. They detected XX toxin in his blood and the hospital is using medication to suppress the toxin. This is why…”


  Lu Jianlin found it weird and said, “Could it be that Zhiheng was also inflicted with a parasite?”


  Eldest Master Lu suddenly shivered and he looked at Lu Jianlin.

  At the thought of what Lu Zhiheng had done to his son and daughter-in-law in the past, Lu Jianlin added. “This is only my guess. If the hospital can save him, let them.”


  Eldest Master Lu did not notice Lu Jianlin’s thoughts and also had the same idea as him.

  “He’s currently receiving emergency treatment.”


  He lowered his hands and in an instant, he seemed to have aged by 10 years.

  Lu Jianlin’s emotions did not fluctuate much despite looking at his current condition. He was not fond of this nephew of his. He lacked ability but was filled with schemes and bad thoughts.

  For someone like that, he would not specially remind his daughter-in-law to help, and she can save him only if she wanted to.

  The two of them turned silent as they stood there, and didn’t speak until they heard the sounds of a car approaching from outside the main gate.

  Both of them looked up at the same time to see Third Master Lu and Lu Ming, who was studying in the military academy, walking over together.

  “Big Brother, Second Brother, why are the both of you here?”


  “Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle.”


  Lu Jianlin asked, “Did you encounter any accidents along the way?”


  “Father and I secretly came out. We got two individuals with a similar physique to ours to drive Father’s car. They encountered some people along the way and they are currently making turns here and there to shake them off,” Lu Ming answered.

  Third Master Lu asked eagerly, “How is Father’s condition?”


  Lu Jianlin briefly told them about Patriarch Lu’s condition.

  Third Master Lu asked with an odd expression, after he heard the explanation, “You said that Little Zi can cure Father?”


  “Yes.”


  “Father treated Little Zi and Jingye like that and yet she is still willing to cure Father?”


  Third Master Lu was a straightforward person and he would ask whatever came to his mind.

  In fact, Eldest Master Lu had also thought of this problem before, However, looking at Zi Yi’s indifferent expression, clearly, she did not treat their father willingly. He said, “She’s doing it because of Jingye.”


  Even though he was unwilling to admit it, it was the truth.

  Third Master Lu was silent for several seconds before he said, “It’s good as long as she’s willing to cure Father… I’ll go and check up on him.”


  Third Master Lu and Lu Ming were about to head to the door when Lu Jianlin and Eldest Master Lu called out at the same time.

  “Hold on.”


  Lu Jianlin said, “Jingye and Little Zi are resting inside. Let’s discuss what we will be doing after dawn first. They are exhausted, so let’s let them sleep for a while more.”


  Third Master Lu knew that they had just had their wedding yesterday. It was supposed to be a time where the newlyweds were affectionate with each other and yet, due to their Father’s condition, the newlyweds had been called over.

  He nodded and unexpectedly said, “Then let’s head to my courtyard to discuss. I have a loud voice so I might disturb them if we stay here.”


  His words caused Eldest Master Lu to look at him with a surprised gaze.

  Lu Jianlin would certainly be willing and so, the four of them made their way outside.

  …


  Zi Yi was woken up by Lu Jingye. She was met with Lu Jingye’s gentle gaze the moment she looked up and she gave him a smile.

  Lu Jingye felt his heart instantly melting.

  He said, “It’s five in the morning now, go and wash up first. We’ll head over to?Grandfather’s

  ?place before the day breaks.”


  “Hmmm?” Zi Yi was still somewhat confused about the situation.

  Lu Jingye raised his hand and touched her cheeks which had turned red due to the prolonged time where she leaned on his chest. “Third Uncle has returned. Father and my Uncles will handle the matters here. We’ll make a trip to your Grandfather’s before we leave the capital.”


  “Hmm?”


  ?Zi Yi blinked her eyes and asked, “You’re not going to stay here and do something?”


  “It’s the same even if I do it there,” Lu Jingye whispered to her about his plans. After Zi Yi heard what he had in mind, her eyes brightened, and she nodded her head in agreement. “Okay.”


  When she wanted to get up from his legs, she noticed a blanket covering her shoulders. Lu Jingye was worried that she would get cold after removing the blanket and said, “Bring it along with you. Remove it after we get in the car.”


  Zi Yi refused. “It’s embarrassing if it is seen by others.”


  Lu Jingye did not insist either. After waiting for her to stand up, he followed suit.

  As soon as Zi Yi removed the blanket and placed it to the side, before she had the chance to feel the chilly air, she was engulfed in Lu Jingye’s coat.

  They went to wash up together. After leaving behind Shadow II to disguise as Patriarch Lu, they headed out together and Lu Jingye said, “We can stay there for a longer period of time.

  “What about Mom?” Zi Yi thought about it and said, “Why don’t we bring her along too?”


  Lu Jingye shook his head. “Mother would definitely refuse to leave with us.”


  “Why?”


  “She would not let my Father face this alone.”


  Zi Yi lowered her eyes and thought about it for a moment before she nodded.

  Soon, the two of them quickly walked to where the fiery red racing car was parked.

  Zi Yi asked, “Where’s Father and the others?”


  “They are currently making arrangements. Not only will there be people visiting my Grandfather openly, but there will also certainly be people coming over in the dark.”


  Fortunately, Lu Jianlin had called all the helpers to leave at that time. Only Doctor He remained and it was rather easy for them to conceal Patriarch Lu’s condition.

  After they got in the car, Zi Yi turned on the stealth mode and drove away
