Granny Lu looked around the room. “Where is your Third Brother?”

She recalled seeing that degenerate grandson of hers in a brief waking moment.

Lu Xiwei froze for a second before she regained her composure and said softly, “Third Brother left after you became stable. He’s a busy man now.”

“Like h*ll he’s busy!” Granny Lu scolded loudly.

He’d run away before she even woke!

“Don’t be angry, Granny,” advised Lu Xiwei patiently. “The cousins and aunts are waiting outside for you. Shall I call them in?”

Granny Lu breathed in deeply and said in a calm voice, “Tell them to go back and come back when I can get out of bed. Granny is quite relaxed because you’re here.”

“Sure.”

Upon noticing that the old grandmother was treating her better than usual, Lu Xiwei’s eyes brightened.

The incident this time would definitely cause her status in the Lu Family to rise.

Sixth Uncle and that woman had already returned to Ming City.

As long as Third Brother said nothing, no one in the Lu Family would mention it.

As for the prescription that woman had given, she was going to disregard it for the blood clot had already dissolved and she was extremely confident that she could help Granny recover with her medical expertise.

…

In Ming City.

After Lu Shangjin got out of the car, he walked briskly into a restaurant.

After pus.h.i.+ng the door of a booth open, he found Gu Mang and Meng Jinyang already eating.

There were four dishes and a soup on the table, quite a sumptuous feast.

He had rushed over here in the afternoon without eating anything beforehand. Couldn’t they have waited for him?

Although Lu Shangjin was angry, he did not dare to express it. He put on a smile and asked, “Gu Mang, what did you call me here for?”

The young woman sat with one leg crossed over the other. In one hand was a pair of chopsticks and she rested her elbow on the table.

She sat like a big shot and looked extremely arrogant.

Her appearance was tranquil but it was mostly cold with a hint of fierceness. She had a formidable aura.

She pointed towards the seat opposite her indifferently with her chopsticks. “We’ll discuss the matter over food.”

Lu Shangjin did not affect modesty and sat down to pick up a pair of chopsticks.

Meng Jinyang did not know Lu Shangjin and thinking that he was some relative of Gu Mang, greeted him politely.

After eating two more mouthfuls of food, Gu Mang drawled, “Make arrangements for a school for two. Jinyang and I are going to school.”

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Lu Shangjin immediately choked on his food, his face reddening.

Meng Jinyang was silent for a second as she knitted her eyebrows together and looked down.

Everyone thought that Gu Mang wasn’t suited to studying. Was working a lesser pursuit than studying?

Lu Shangjin recovered with much difficulty, his entire complexion flooded with redness. He asked in disbelief, “What did you say? You want to go to school?”

Gu Mang raised her eyebrows. “Can’t I?”

Lu Shangjin chuckled.

However, his smile disappeared upon noticing Gu Mang’s slightly narrowed eyes.

He controlled his expression and sobered up. “It’s not that you can’t, but I can’t wrap my head around it.”

Gu Mang had done some very impressive things in school and he was really afraid that she would set fire to the entire school if she got mad.

Moreover, why would the big boss even need to go to school?
