During the entire journey back to villa, Ji Qingqingâs brain remained utterly blank.
Although she had felt slightly doubtful about Lu Lixingâs physical condition, it was only doubts. Under the conditions of modern medicine, Ji Qingqing didnât believe that Haibin Cityâs largest hospital would make such a big mistake. Moreover, Lu Lixing was supposed to already be dead by now in the novel.
So why was Lu Lixing still alive?
It couldnât be that Lu Lixing had recovered because she had married him, right?
Ji Qingqing erased this idea from her mind. The idea that getting married would bring good luck to a sickly person had no scientific basis. It wasnât believable.
She was caught off guard when she heard, âWhat are you thinking about?â
Ji Qingqing returned to her senses and looked at Lu Lixing, who was looking at her with a questioning gaze. The question had also drawn over Elder Luâs kind gaze.
âNothing much, just feeling that this matter is strange. For Mr. Lu to have recovered so quickly, could the doctor have misdiagnosed?â
A patient, who had been on the cusp of death, had left the hospital. In the span of three days and without any medical treatment, his condition had gradually improved to the point where he was going to make a full recovery.
If the news of Lu Lixingâs medical history spread, it would shock the medical community.
âMisdiagnosis? Why? Do you still feel like Iâm going to die soon? Didnât you say that you hope I would recover? You said that Iâm young and promising, that Iâm sure to live to a hundred years. If it was possible, you would be willing to give me half of your life. Wasnât it you that said all those words?â
âAh no, I didnât mean it like that. Of course, I hope that youâll get better. I meant, could it be possible that the doctor had misdiagnosed when you were discharged from the hospital three days ago.â
âItâs not strange, and it wasnât a misdiagnosis.â Elder Lu smiled and said, âQingqing, you have a higher power watching over you.â
Ji Qingqing smiled. She knew that Elder Lu was referring to that superstitious belief. Alright, if such an incredible thing couldnât be explained by science, then they would have to use metaphysics as the reason.
However, since Lu Lixing had recovered and wasnât going to die, she wouldnât have to observe the mourning rituals of a widow.
Lu Liting wouldnât be able to inherit the Lu familyâs fortune. Without Lu Liting serving as her background supporter, Shen Weiwei wouldnât be able to make it big in the entertainment industry. She wouldnât have to keep thinking about saving money and running far away to avoid the male lead and female leads.
This was truly⌠too wonderful!
It didnât matter that there were no feelings between her and Lu Lixing. She wouldnât be stupid like the novelâs Ji Qingqing. The novelâs Ji Qingqing had chased after money when she should be chasing after love. When it was time to chase after money, the novelâs Ji Qingqing had chased after love. Lu Lixing was rich, extremely rich. She wouldnât love him. She would just love his money. If Lu Lixing wasnât willing to give her money, that was okay too. She could earn money for herself in the entertainment circle. She was more clear-headed than the novelâs Ji Qingqing. She would definitely be able to earn money!
Thinking of this, Ji Qingqing couldnât stop her laughter from spilling out.
Without the threat of the male lead and the female lead, Ji Qingqing could practically see her bright future.
Elder Luâs grandfatherly gaze became even more adoring when he saw Ji Qingqingâs smile.
Lu Lixing lightly looked her way before looking out through the carâs window the rest of the car ride.
Soon, they arrived at the Luâs villa.
Aunty Pei had been sitting in the living room and anxiously waiting for news. As soon as she heard the sound of a car, she hastily came out to greet them.
âElder Lu, how did the examination go?â
During the past few hours when Lu Lixing had gone to the hospital for an examination, Aunty Pei had been considering everything about Lu Lixingâs condition after he had been discharged from the hospital. Even though everyone was saying that this was his last burst of vitality before death, she had never seen a dying person doing as well as Lu Lixing.
