Chapter 233: 233: Deceived
There were tons of words stuck in his throat, but he just couldn’t get them out of his mouth.
Hong Lu seemed exhausted but there was a calm expression on her face.
She looked at Master Lu and smiled, “Master Lu, please get the amount of money equivalent to 10% of the Lu family’s share as soon as possible. We have a written contract that you have to pay that amount within 15 days after the surgery is complete.”
Master Lu’s mouth was wide open with his jaw on the ground and his eyes open wide. His face was filled with shock and disbelief as he asked in a trembling voice, “You’re… Done?”
Hong Lu chuckled and replied, “I already told you that this is the real deal, and you shouldn’t miss this opportunity. Professor J is indeed an expert when it comes to neurosurgery. After all these years of being in the medical industry, I have never met anyone that was better than her. If she says that she will be able to treat him, that means that it will definitely be a success.
“However, Young Master Lu has been immobile for a few years, and even with the special care that he has received, his muscles have atrophied much worse than we had expected. The recovery for these cases can take a long time. If he wants to return to a normal person who can walk and run without any difficulties, he will need at least 3-5 years to make a full recovery.”
“With no difficulties?!”
Master Lu latched onto this one point and felt that he may have heard incorrectly.
This was because Lu Jinian’s legs had been badly destroyed. As long as Lu Jinian could stand once again and be able to take care of himself, he would be very grateful.
However, the broken nerves that Lu Jinian had faced were something that had troubled specialists from all over the world.
However, on this day, after all their hopes had been crushed, Professor Hong Lu was telling him that Lu Jinian would be able to make a full recovery, where he could walk and even run without any difficulty. Master Lu got so excited that he almost got a heart attack.
“That’s right, with no difficulties at all. Professor J has already fixed the broken nerves in Young Master Lu’s body. The surgery was a success, and the recovery looks good as well. Since this is neuro damage and not a broken bone, Young Master Lu can try walking and standing 5 days after the surgery. You should allow him to stand and walk more often during the recovery period. The Lawrence Inst.i.tute also has a team that specializes in physiotherapy. If you’ll allow us, you can pa.s.s Young Master Lu to our recovery team. This would help him recover within the shortest period of time.”
Master Lu was completely filled with joy, so much that he did not know what to say. He turned to the butler that was with him, who was already covered in tears of joy. The butler got so excited that he had already forgotten his ident.i.ty and was holding onto Master Lu’s hand as he said, “That’s great! This is good news, Master! Let’s hand Young Master Lu over to them so that they can help him with his recovery!”
“Yes! Yes! Of course!”
Master Lu immediately agreed and then looked at Hong Lu, “Is Professor J still inside finis.h.i.+ng the surgery? I have to thank her personally! She’s the savior of the Lu family!”
“She has already left after the surgery. The doctors from the inst.i.tute will be finis.h.i.+ng the rest for her.”
Master Lu was stunned, “She left already? Then… When will Professor J be back?”
“She usually isn’t here in the inst.i.tute. Most of the time, she only contacts us once she finds a case that she is interested in. She doesn’t work for the Inst.i.tute, she’s just a partner in the inst.i.tute.”
“How should I thank her then?!”
A sense of disappointment appeared in Master Lu’s heart.
“You are already paying her 10% of your family’s share, which is equivalent to the help she gave you. You don’t have to thank her personally.”
Master Lu had really thought that this little girl was unreliable before this surgery. However, after the surgery’s success, Master Lu couldn’t help but exclaim that it was true that there were heroes hidden within this city!
