123 Find Someone to Follow Lù Yue’an
Lu Qing held on to the flowers and watched her leave; he stood rooted to the ground for a long time.
Finally, he turned around and walked into the hospital. Before entering the in-patient building, he dumped the flowers in his hand into a trashcan by the wall.
…
Not far away, a black Bentley drove to the entrance of the hospital after seeing the two of them leave.
Old Zhu helped the Old Master down and into the wheelchair.
Pushing him, he went into the hospital.
“Master, I’ll go ask the miss which floor she’s on.”
Old Master Lù eyed the hospital corridor, then stopped him. “No need, push me to the payment counter.”
Old Zhu was taken aback, but he still pushed him to the hospital’s payment counter.
Old Master Lù deposited some medical fees in advance under Lu Ning’s name, then came out. He did not ask where she was, nor did he visit her; he only paid some of her hospitalization fees for her.
“Master…”
Old Master Lù beckoned for him to push him and leave.
Old Zhu did not say anything else and pushed the Old Master away.
…
After getting into the car, Old Zhu had wanted to drive off, but the Old Master—who was sitting in the backseat—said, “When Li Qing comes back, get him to find someone to follow that girl.”
Old Zhu could not react for a moment.
“Master, who are you talking about?”
The Old Master closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair. “Lù Yue’an.”
Old Zhu was startled. “Yes, Master.”

Lu Ning either sat or lay on her stomach every day; she was feeling completely lazy. After everyone had left, she slowly got out of bed, hoping to go out for a walk.
Unexpectedly, Huo Jinyan, who had just left, returned.
“Why are you back?”
“You can walk?”
Lu Ning really wanted to roll her eyes. “Teacher, it’s my back that is injured, not my leg.”
Huo Jinyan nodded and walked over, putting the things in his hands aside. “I’ll hold you.”
Lu Ning: ???
“No need, I can do it myself.”
Huo Jinyan’s hand was left hanging in the air.
His darkened eyes narrowed as he uttered in a low voice, “I remember you vomiting all over me before, right?”
Lu Ning took the initiative to place her arm on his hand. “Teacher, I suddenly want you to accompany me for a walk. Hurry up and bring me out.”
It looked theatrical. Huo Jinyan smiled at her and helped her to slowly walk out.
The two of them strolled all the way to the backyard garden of the hospital.
Lu Ning realized that many of the pregnant women here were being supported by their husbands.
“…”
“Let’s go back.”
Huo Jinyan looked around, unfazed; and without skipping a beat, he said, “There’s a bench over there. Let’s go sit down.”
Lu Ning nodded, and the two of them went over to take a seat.
Lu Ning could not lean on him and simply sat there stiffly.
Huo Jinyan looked at her and did not think too much about it. He took off his coat and draped it over her.
Lu Ning was surprised, but she did not refuse.
Huo Jinyan still wanted to ask about what they had talked about before, but before he could Lu Ning had spoken first.
“Huo Jinyan, are you doing it on purpose?”
Huo Jinyan: ?
Lu Ning leaned closer to look at him. “You suddenly came to be a teacher and even tutored me. Are you really so kind? Or are you just taking revenge on me?”
Huo Jinyan found it funny. “Take revenge on you? Why?”
Lu Ning looked at him very seriously and felt that her guess was right.
“You’re just too petty.”
Huo Jinyan: ?
“I didn’t do it on purpose that time; I vomited all over you because I drank too much. For you to go through so much trouble to be a teacher just for this… you’re really something.”
Huo Jinyan: “…”
Just what exactly is she thinking?
