Chapter 244 - 244 244 Thoughts
Tan Jing carefully observed Lu Qing’s expression. When the butler said it earlier, she did not really believe it. Now that Lu Qing said it, she believed 70 – 80% of it. Could it be that the old master’s health had really recovered? Or was it a last gasp?
Chen Yi and Tan Jing looked at each other. They were already here, so they were going to return empty-handed? No, it wasn’t easy for them to invite Dr. Peter over. They couldn’t go back without even seeing old master Lu.
“Lu Qing, Dr. Peter came all the way here. Just let him see Grandpa Lu. There’s no harm in it anyway, right?” Tan Jing looked troubled. “Besides, Dr. Peter pushed back a few surgeries in order to visit Grandpa Lu. He flew over early in the morning. We can’t just let him waste this trip, right?”
Lu Qing just thought that Tan Jing’s words were very funny. Who would rush to see a doctor if they were not sick? He already clearly said that his grandfather’s body had recovered, but Tan Jing still asked the doctor to treat his grandfather. Was she afraid that his grandfather would recover?
“Just allow Dr. Peter take a look at Old Master Lu. He can also do a quick check up.” Chen Yi added on.
Lu Qing looked at Dr. Peter and he did look travel-worn. He probably came all the way here from abroad. The Lu family wouldn’t care about the examination fee and so he decided to allow them inside.
“Come in.” Lu Qing said helplessly.
Tan Jing was delighted and entered the room before the doctor. Those who didn’t know better would think that she was a doctor.
Everything would be alright as soon as they were allowed to enter. Tan Jing thought about how Dr. Peter had already accepted their benefits. When the time came, he would have to do whatever they asked him to do. Regardless of whether Old Master Lu could be cured or not, the Lu family would definitely owe her a favor.
After all, the Lu family was one of the most famous families in the city.
It was Tan Jing’s first time seeing such a mansion. Be it the surrounding, the building, or even the fountain beside it, it was much better than the Tan family’s. In comparison to the Lu family’s mansion, where the Tan family was staying was nothing.
Lu Qing led them through the long stone brick path, then past the front hall, to the place where Old Master Lu was recuperating. Although it was not as big as the front hall, this house was already comparable to the main residence of the Tan family.
There were flowers and plants that Tan Jing had never seen before planted everywhere. Just by looking at the appearance, she knew that they were rare treasures. There were also servants trimming the branches of the flowers and plants. Each of them was carefully taken care of by a specific gardener. The flowers were very beautiful and looked full of vitality.
Before she reached the house at the back, she saw Old Master Lu taking a walk among the flowers. His face was rosy and his footsteps were light. He did not look seriously ill at all.
Tan Jing and Chen Yi’s doubts reached the peak. Could it be that Old Master Lu had really recovered?
Chen Yi pushed Tan Jing from behind, telling her to go up and greet him.
Tan Jing understood and walked forward to greet Old Master Lu obediently. “Hello, Grandpa Lu. I’m Tan Jing. I went to the hospital to visit you previously. I wonder if you still remember me?”
Old Master Lu had a deep impression of her. After he fell ill, Lu Qing’s classmates and those who had connections in the family all came to the hospital to visit him. This girl left a deep impression on him because he really did not like her.
“I remember.” Old Master Lu didn’t want to embarrass her. “You’re Xiao Qing’s classmate, right? We met at the hospital.”
When he saw her at the hospital, he disliked this girl the most. Although she sat obediently in the crowd, her eyes did not look like those of a child her age. Moreover, she was always criticizing others and praising herself. She was very scheming at such a young age.
Tan Jing was very excited when she heard that. It turned out that Old Master Lu still remembered her. This was great.
Old Master Lu looked at them. “Hello. Thank you for coming to see me. My health is already much better, but the doctor said that I shouldn’t be exposed to the wind for too long.” It meant that they should get lost and he doesn’t want to see them outside.
