Chapter 543: Now I kind of want to smoke

Xiao Xin, presumably to meet clients. Either carrying a notebook or a stack of files.The law firm's office building was an old one, lacking sufficient parking spaces. Consequently, her car always end...Even in the afternoon, knowing she was in the ward upstairs, he couldn't bring himself to go. His appearance would inevitably cause a stir in the Lu family, and during her illness, he didn't want to add any more complications, so he could only wait in his car.

When she was a child, she was just a blurry shadow to him, and he had already forgotten her specific appearance. It wasn't until after she grew up and entered the entertainment industry to chase stars that he truly noticed her again.

At that time, the Gu family had already invested in several box-office hits, so for a while, he occasionally paid attention to entertainment news. At that time, the media widely reported that the Tingjing Financial Group acquired the Huā lā lā Entertainment Agency in order to chase stars for the little princess with a lot of money.

Seeing those news, he couldn't help but smile, thinking it was something the Lu family could do, to lift their little princess to the heavens. In the video, the long-lost princess also had a proud and arrogant expression, as if she were going to soar into the sky.

When he truly saw her, she was filming an idol drama on location at a hotel under the Gu Corporation. He happened to be there that day for a quality inspection. Seeing a film crew shoot set him off, but then he realized it was her filming a scene where she was slapped. The other actor's strike was forceful, a crisp slap landing across her face. He felt his heart skip a beat at the sound. Then, he saw her fair skin visibly red and swollen, tears welling up in her eyes, though she held them back.

After the director shouted "cut!", she immediately covered her face and cried, saying "It hurts so much! It hurts!" But she didn't forget to run to the director's camera to see the effect just now. She cried and said: "I told you I wanted a real fight, look how good the effect is."

The actor who hit her passed over an ice pack for her to apply, apologizing profusely and saying he had gone too far. She waved him off, saying it was fine.

At that time

He thought, not bad, hasn't been spoiled by the Lu family.

Later on, they met again at a charity gala. He usually received countless invitations every year, and someone else would represent him at these events. That time, he went on his own accord and sat beside her.

He said, "Yaoyao, don't you recognize your brother"

She said, "My brother has only one."

With a smug look on her face, she completely forgot about their childhood together and treated him like a random stranger trying to hit on her.

Hit on

Seems about right!

Later, he kept bumping into her at various events. It wasn't a coincidence as she thought, but rather a deliberate act on his part.

However, he wasn't a person who was obsessed with romantic pursuits. Besides, she had a boyfriend at the time, and he himself wasn't in a good state. So initially, he just intended to take a look at her, tease her a little, that's all. But unexpectedly, the more he looked, the stronger his feelings became. Over the years, they grew deeper and deeper, reaching a point where he couldn't quit.

He stayed with her in the hospital all night, leaving before the doctor came to check on her and the Lu family arrived the next day. He had been holding her hand the whole time, and when he got up even slightly, it woke her. She looked at him with a hint of reluctance.

"I'll come see you again later."

It's not about avoiding the Lu family; I will have to face them eventually. It's just that the timing isn't right now.

As soon as he left, Lu Yaoyao slightly turned her head and saw a delicate red velvet box on the pillow. It was Gu Ruandong who had deliberately left it there just now, without saying a word.

She hurriedly opened it and saw a pair of pearl earrings inside. They were crystal clear, round and small, very beautiful. She couldn't help but smile to herself.

Lu Kuò just walked in and saw her smiling, frowning: "Daydreaming Smiling for no reason this early"

"What's it to you"

She put on the pearl earrings, looking at them with pride, and couldn't help but ask Lu Kuo, "How do they look"

Lu Kuo looked at her with a dumbfounded expression, openly pointing out her flaws.

"You're wearing a hospital gown, your face is as pale as a ghost, and your hair hasn't been washed in three days. You look dirty and smelly. And you ask me if I think you look good"

Wasn't Gu Ruandong holding her and kissing her for so long last night

She pulled at her own hair and sniffed it, then lowered her head to sniff the hospital gown. A smell of medicine, indeed a bit nauseating.

Lu Kuai wore an expression that said, "You finally figured it out."

Lu Yaoyao shouted: "Haojie, I want to wash my hair and take a bath!!!"

The doctor who came in to change her dressing was startled. When he heard what she said, the doctor laughed and said, "You can wash your hair, but I'm afraid you can't take a bath yet. Just bear with it for now."

“What are you dressing up for when you’re hospitalized! Who cares about that!” Lu Kuo couldn't understand her train of thought, but after the doctor changed her dressing, he still had a nurse come and wash her hair, blow it dry, and change her into a new hospital gown. Lu Yaoyao made herself smell nice and then finally felt much better.

When Gu Ruan Dong came back in the evening, she pestered him to put earrings and that diamond anklet she had never worn on her.

Gu Ruandong originally wanted to say that wearing earrings was uncomfortable while lying in bed, but seeing the expectant look in her eyes, he smiled and took them over to put them on for her, also putting the anklet on her left foot.

"Thank you!" she felt a little better, having completely forgotten about her injured foot.

He reached out and touched her head, without speaking. He sat beside her bed like last night, a proper gentleman.

Not a gentleman nor a man of the people, capable of treating patients

What to doen 5 hours, her palms were sweating. She didn't relax until she saw a blurry figure of a girl on the earthen wall, jumping down and followed closely by Song Jingye. Lu Yaoyao hurriedly opened the car...
