Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss - Chapter 206

206 206 Going to the hospital

Old Master Lu’s health fluctuates a lot. When he fell into a coma, Lu Qing stayed by his side and did not leave for a moment. Lu Qing would only leave when he was awake.

The dispirited old man on the hospital bed looked at his young grandson. He was really unwilling in his heart. His son and daughter-in-law had passed away early, and his grandson was still in high school. Although Lu Qing was very sensible, he was still a child after all. How could he leave Lu Qing behind and die now?

“Grandpa, don’t worry.” Lu Qing hadn’t had a good meal or a good night’s sleep for the past few days. His originally handsome face had lost its youth and there were dark circles under his eyes. “You will get better.”

“Don’t worry, Grandpa can live for another 20 years.” Old Master Lu tried his best to open his eyes wide and speak. “But, I just want you to be well now. I want you to get into university, start a family, and then…”

!!
Old Master Lu started coughing continuously.

“Grandpa! Where do you feel uncomfortable?” Lu Qing asked nervously.

“It’s fine! It’s fine.” Old Master Lu waved his hand and changed the topic,”You haven’t eaten, have you? Quick, you should have something to eat.”

“No!” Lu Qing said, shaking his head.

“How can you skip meals? When I was a soldier, I would thank the heavens if I could even get one meal a day. Now that you have something to eat, you shouldn’t starve yourself.

Lu Qing could tell that his grandfather wanted him to leave. “I’m not leaving!”

“Are you not going to listen to your grandfather?” Old Master Lu’s temper was still very bad. Even though he had been lying in bed for so long, he still had his strong military sura. “Don’t worry, it’s not time for me to go yet. Grandpa can hold on so that you have the time to eat.”

Lu Qing frowned.

“If you don’t eat, I won’t take my medicine.” Old Master Lu continued.

“Alright, I’ll go.” Lu Qing wanted to return quickly.

Just as Lu Qing stepped out of the door, Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu rushed to the hospital. Xiao Mo was entrusted with the task of holding Lu Qing back.

They had been here before and Old Master Lu had also said that there was no need to report their arrival in the future, so the guards let them in directly.

Old Master Lu was very happy to see Tan Rou. “Young girl, you’ve come to see this old man again.”

Tan Rou brought a ‘small gift’ over and sat on the edge of the bed quietly. “Yes, I thought I should come and visit you.”

Old Master Lu looked to the other side. “The Zhuang family’s third young master is here too.”

Zhuang Liu deliberately talked to him to attract his attention. “Mr. Lu, you can just call me Zhuang Liu. Calling me the third young master is making me feel distant from you.”

Old Master Lu sized him up. “You look much better than last time. I heard people talking about you a while ago…” He didn’t finish his sentence. Third young master Zhuang’s illness was not a secret in the society but it wasn’t something that Zhuang Liu had announced to the public. However, he felt that he was getting more and more energetic and didn’t look like he was in an incurable state.

Tan Rou didn’t want to be exposed so she put the credit on Bai Jing. “The doctor at home changed the treatment plan.”

“That’s good.” Old Master Lu felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. “I can’t take it anymore. I’m already feeling sleepy.”

Tan Rou gave Zhuang Liu a look. After Zhuang Liu received the signal, he immediately said, “You shall rest then. We’ll call the guards for you.”

Old Master Lu slowly closed his eyes. “Alright. Thank you.”

Zhuang Liu didn’t call for the guards because this was Tan Rou’s plan. Tan Rou had not been idle just now. She had been setting up the incense.

“I’ve already told them to block the surveillance. You should hurry.” Zhuang Liu reminded her.

“Sure.” Tan Rou took out the sterilized silver needles from her bag and arranged them on the table beside the bed. She took out a thin needle and inserted it into Old Master Lu’s body. Old Master Lu did not feel anything in his sleep and he did not make a sound because of the pain.

The silver needles in Tan Rou’s hands danced in the air, and in a short while, Old Master Lu’s body was pierced with countless needles. Suddenly, Lu Qing’s voice came from outside.

It seems like Xiao mo didn’t manage to hold him back for too long. Zhuang Liu operated the wheelchair. “Just focus. I’ll hold them outside.”

“I’ll be done in two minutes.” Tan Rou said.

Zhuang Liu couldn’t hold Lu Qing back for too long but he definitely could for two minutes. Just a simple conversation and two minutes would have passed. While they were talking, Tan Rou removed the needle and lit up the antidote fragrance.

The antidote incense quickly burned out. She opened the windows and the ventilation system to disperse the smell so that the incense would not be discovered. After waiting for a few minutes, Zhuang Liu still hadn’t come back, so she decided to leave and wait for him outside the room.

“This is the tonic that the third young master Zhuang brought for the old man.” Tan Rou handed the prepared herbal dish to the guard. “If Old Master Lu is hungry, you can give this to him.”

The guard accepted her herbal dish, but he didn’t think that the chief would be eating it. Recently, his appetite had been getting worse and he couldn’t keep anything in his system.
