When He Youran saw that Lu Qingzhuo did not continue asking questions, she could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
She carefully massaged Lu Qingzhuoâs legs to confirm the condition of his muscles and asked him some more questions after he recovered.
Lu Qingzhuo answered all of them one by one.
The conversation between the two was business-like. However, this kind of normal interaction when he was diagnosed by a doctor made Lu Qingzhuo feel inexplicably anxious.
A fire burned in his heart. He could not suppress it, nor could he let it out.
âYour leg has recovered very well.â He Youran stood up after the examination.
âYes,â Lu Qingzhuo replied casually.
He Youran did not notice that he was distracted. She was only happy for him.
Once Lu Qingzhuoâs leg had recovered, he would be able to appear in front of people normally. He would be able to salvage the image of the Lu family in the imperial capital and have the confidence to continue fighting against the he family in the imperial capital.
As for He Yaobai, although they were both young masters of wealthy families, she still had a better feeling about Lu Qingzhuo.
If she was given a choice, she hoped that Lu Qingzhuo could win in the confrontation between Lu Qingzhuo and He Yaobai.
She rubbed her chin as if she had already connected the scene of Lu Qingzhuo standing at the peak of Chinaâs business and smiled.
â... Miss He, Miss He?â
Lu Qingzhuo called He Youran twice. Seeing that she didnât respond, he couldnât help but gently touch her arm.
âHuh?â He Youran came back to her senses and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âI want to ask you to keep the recovery of my leg a secret for the time being,â Lu Qingzhuo said.
âYou donât want to alert the enemy?â He Youran was a smart person, so she naturally understood what he meant.
âYes.â Lu Qingzhuo nodded and didnât hide anything, âWith such a big incident happening in the Lu family, itâs been very difficult for them to develop these past few years. Whether theyâre human or ghost, they all want a share of the profits from our Lu family. But even though the Lu family is in decline, itâs also the second largest family in China. It wonât be easy for those people to make a move. I want to take advantage of this period of time to figure out which group of people are stirring up trouble.â
âAnd then, wipe them out in one fell swoop?â He Youran continued.
âYes.â Lu Qingzhuo smiled. âOnly by wiping out all the enemies can we rest easy.â
âOkay.â
He Youran nodded in agreement.
She felt that it wasnât a big deal to help Lu Qingzhuo hide the truth.
âAlso, I have a presumptuous request.â Lu Qingzhuo hesitated for a moment before he decided to speak.
He wanted to propose that He Shouxin be his adopted son.
Whether it was from his good impression of He Youran or to prevent He Yaobai.
He wanted to take this opportunity to have a closer relationship with He Youran.
âMr. Lu, please go ahead.â
âI want Shouxin to be my adopted son.â
âWhat did you say?â He Youran thought she heard wrong.
Lu Qingzhuo was famous in the business world, but for some reason, he felt a little nervous when he faced He Youran. He couldnât help but raise his hand to loosen his tie.
âThis proposal is a little presumptuous, but...â He thought about his choice of words. âMy grandmother and Shouxin... I can guarantee that he will live a good life in the Lu family. We will all love him very much. In the future, I will let him take over ââ
âMr. Lu, your proposal is a good thing for others, but Iâm sorry,â He Youran interrupted him, âShouxin is a simple-minded child. Heâs not suited to live in a business environment where everyone is scheming against each other. Although Mr. Lu promised to protect him well, I donât have the intention to let him escape from his normal childhood for the time being.â
Lu Qingzhuo: â...â
Did He Shouxin not have a normal childhood after coming to the Lu Family?
Even though the Lu family was in a mess, they could definitely protect them well!
