Fu Hongyu had said that all her revenge methods were predicated on that woman making a move against Lu Chongyan, and Zhuo Ni admitted to that.
But she knew human nature well. Her only son was dying of kidney failure. Lu Chongyan's appearance offered her the only glimmer of hope. She would do anything to seize it. Once she was sure Lu Chongyan's kidneys could save her son, she would trample on all laws and morals!
Just like in the original plot.
That was a woman who, even in times of comfort and no crisis, "sold off" her younger brother after their parents died in a car accident. Did she have any humanity?
Zhuo Ni didn't think so either. When she read the original plot, she had wanted to tear that woman limb from limb. If she truly acted, Zhuo Ni would make her wish she were dead.
Lu Chongyan was comforted and smiled, "This is a society of laws. I don't want you committing crimes for her. I won't agree to help her, nor will I acknowledge her. Mutual non-interference is enough."
Before his corruption, Lu Chongyan was kind and principled. To be driven to such a state by her in the end, that woman's methods were truly vicious and disgusting.
"Mhm, as long as she doesn't set her sights on you, I won't do anything."
Lu Chongyan thanked her obediently, his youthful actions filled with endearing cuteness.
After exchanging some flirtatious words to warm the atmosphere, they returned to the ward.
Fu Ningyun was already chatting with Lu's mother, discussing everything under the sun. The female lead possessed a certain irresistible charm, further enhanced by her soft and adorable appearance like a human cub, quickly winning over Lu's mother's heart.
"Then when will your uncle be back?"
The young girl shook her head, "I don't know. Uncle never tells me where he's going. But sister said she'll be back in a while. Sister."
Lu's mother looked up, "She's back? Chongyan, find a restaurant and order takeout. We'll go out to eat tonight, gather together, and let the old man relax a bit." (Su Dan Novel Network)
They had been here for several days. Lu's father hadn't left the hospital at all. Lu's mother would at most buy some food at the hospital entrance. It was indeed stifling.
These words were spoken for Zhuo Ni's benefit, or rather, the dinner gathering was for her. Their family of three eating takeout in the ward would have also been a gathering.
Lu Chongyan quickly agreed, "I understand. I'll ask the doctor later to see if there are any dietary restrictions for my father."
He was thoughtful, and Lu's mother had no objections.
He went to ask the doctor, then borrowed a wheelchair. Lu's father sat in the wheelchair, and he pushed it. Lu's mother carried a bag. The group then left the hospital.
Thanks to Fu Ningyun, they now traveled in luxury cars.
As soon as they got in the car, Zhuo Ni's phone rang.
She thought it was a call from home or a classmate, but it was an unknown number, a long string of digits unlike a regular phone number.
"Hello."
On the other end was Fu Hongyu's anxious voice, mixed with the sounds of gunfire and shouting, "Miss Lu! Have someone drive you to the Yun Tong private airport. Come help me with something! It's a matter of life and death, please!"
Zhuo Ni had said she would help if needed, so she couldn't refuse, "Okay."
After hanging up, she apologized to everyone, "Auntie, Uncle, I have an urgent matter to attend to. You all go eat today. I'll treat next time. Pull over by the roadside, I'll get out."
The driver immediately found a place to stop. As Zhuo Ni was about to get out, Lu Chongyan grabbed her hand, "I want to go with you."
Zhuo Ni hesitated for two seconds, then nodded, "Okay."
Lu's father and mother hadn't even had time to say much before the two of them got out of the car. He cautioned them a couple of times, but Zhuo Ni had already hailed a taxi by the roadside.
Changing cars, Zhuo Ni took out her phone again and called the people protecting Fu Ningyun.
The instruction was for them to take Fu Ningyun back to their residence after the meal and not to leave the house until she returned.
After giving the instructions, she asked the driver, "Driver, can we go to Yun Tong private airport?"
"Miss, you're joking. That's a private airport, as they say. Taxis like us naturally can't get in."
"It's fine, just drive towards there."
She contacted Fu Hongyu's people again, shared her location, and asked them to pick them up.
Soon, the two cars met at a fork in the road, and they quickly switched vehicles. The speed increased considerably. Fu Hongyu's people spoke no words, heading straight for Yun Tong private airport. In about twenty minutes, they arrived.
It was a helicopter.
The driver drove the car directly next to the helicopter. When the two got off the helicopter, the waiting personnel were a bit dumbfounded.
They had received instructions to pick up one person, but now there were two. What if they exceeded the load capacity on the way back...
"Aren't we going?"
"Miss Lu, sir only said to pick you up. This gentleman..."
"He's coming too." She paused, then added, "If he doesn't go, neither will I."
Reluctantly, the pilot had no choice but to agree.
This was Lu Chongyan's first time riding a helicopter. Before this, he had never flown. He was somewhat curious and couldn't help but look outside.
As for Zhuo Ni, she could fly on her own, so she didn't feel anything special about it. She just thought the speed was a bit slow. If she could use her movement technique, she would have arrived much sooner.
However, the system would go mad.
