Chapter 452: You Have Your Heart and Flesh, I Have Mine Too
The butler was surprised and he quickly followed after Second Young Master Lu. At this time, he saw Lu Jingzhi walking past the living room and walking towards the dining table immediately.
Chen Jingshu looked up at Lu Jingzhi as soon as he walked into the room. Even though Lu Jingzhi had always had a very cold att.i.tude even on regular days, the atmosphere was even scarier and tense today.
“Jingzhi, have you had your dinner already?” Third Uncle Lu asked as he looked at Lu Jingzhi.
As soon as Lu Jingzhi sat at the dining table, the first sentence that he said was, “Yes, she did everything because of me. However, the reason she did it was not just so she could please you or Grandpa, but simply because she sincerely hope that Jingqi will get better and recover from his illness.”
Third Uncle Lu was caught off guard completely and he did not understand what was going on at the moment. “I…don’t understand what you are talking about.”
“She had already known she would be very busy with work for the upcoming month since she would be spending a lot of time abroad, but she still agreed to Grandpa Tan’s request to personally perform the acupuncture for Jingqi. She spent forty-six hours on the plane and only two days in Iceland because she did not want any delays in her work just so she could rush back to see how Jingqi was doing. Do you know how tired and exhausted Yuning was when she came home last night?”
Third Uncle Lu finally understood what Lu Jingzhi was talking about after listening to his words.
“She does not owe you anything and she does not need to please you at all. Therefore, you do not have any rights to hurt her the way that you did, Third Uncle.”
“Jingzhi…”
“You have your heart and flesh, I have mine too.” After that, Lu Jingzhi looked at the butler before he asked, “Is he here yet?”
“He’s here. He’s already here,” the butler replied immediately.
Chen Jingshu looked up in antic.i.p.ation but was surprised to see that the person who had just came was none other than Lu Jingqi’s family doctor.
“Dr. Feng, why did Jingqi feel nauseous and vomit yesterday? Did you check on him properly?” Lu Jingzhi asked the other party in a cold manner. It was obvious that if the other party dared to say anything false at all, he would definitely suffer a fate worse than death.
Sure enough, the doctor had a guilty conscience.
“Yes…yes, I did.”
“Tell us the results that you have after conducting the checkup.”
“The young master must have eaten something that he should not have eaten…”
“What had he mistakenly eaten?” Lu Jingzhi asked in a deeper voice, as though he was giving the family doctor a warning at this time. “I have the prescription for the Chinese medicine right here. You can run through the ingredients and herbs in the prescription and tell me what the problem is. You have already looked after Jingqi for such a long time, so I know that you comprehend what I am trying to say now.”
The other party could obviously hear the anger in Lu Jingzhi’s tone at this time. At this time, he was trembling in fear and he was already breaking out in cold sweat.
“Actually, I think that…Young Master Jingqi is allergic to deep sea fish.”
The few people, especially Third Uncle Lu, was shocked after listening to the doctor’s words.
“What did you just say?”
“Young Master Jingqi….must be allergic to deep sea fish. I think that is the reason he was feeling unwell yesterday,” the family doctor replied as he looked at the three persons standing before him with a guilty expression on his face.
This was because he no longer had the courage to continue deceiving them.
If Lu Jingzhi found out the truth, then his life was over.
“Why did you lie about his condition?”
“I…when I saw the young master recovering and getting better, I was afraid that I would lose this high-paying job…”
“Get lost.” Lu Jingzhi waved his hand at the doctor. Even though he was mad at the doctor right now, he was not as mad and disappointed at him as he was with his own family members.
When the family doctor heard Lu Jingzhi’s order, he packed up to leave the living room of the Lu family mansion as soon as possible. However, at this time, Third Uncle Lu had a lot of doubts and questions.
“Don’t leave just yet. I want you to explain everything to me.”
No one would have expected the Lu family doctor to be so despicable.
After revealing the truth, Lu Jingzhi did not want to spend any more time at the Lu family mansion. Therefore, he stood up and started walking out of the mansion without giving Third Uncle Lu the opportunity to apologize or say anything else.
“Jingzhi!”
Third Uncle Lu yelled out loud to stop him.
However, Lu Jingzhi did not stop or look back at all.
One year. He had already been together with his little descendant for more than one year. Throughout this one year, he had never allowed anyone to make his wife angry or feel so wronged and upset.
Unexpectedly, the person who had hurt his precious heart and flesh so deeply today was none other than a member of the Lu family.
