Lu Jiu's reaction did not arouse Lu Che's suspicion. Anyway, her elder brother had been very hostile to the eldest young master recently, and she was used to it.
However, she herself was unable to contact Lu Qilin, and she felt some strange emotions in her heart.
It's like there's a vague feeling of uneasiness, but I can't put my finger on what it is.
This went on for a week before Lu Che finally realized something was wrong.
Before, no matter whether she paid attention to Lu Qilin or not, he would report to the hospital every day and watch her eat and rest silently.
When she occasionally went out for a walk, she would silently accompany her behind.
But during this period of time, the person who accompanied her every day was her eldest brother, and Lu Qilin, who used to be there every day, disappeared.
Lu Che initially told himself not to be fooled by Lu Qilin. Maybe this was all Lu Qilin's scheme. He would deliberately appear beside her every day to ask about her well-being, and then suddenly disappear when she got used to his presence.
This way, she would be worried.
Lu Che told himself that he must not be fooled by Lu Qilin.
until-
"Brother, I want to see Lu Qilin, but I can't get through to him on the phone. Can you... help me contact him?" Finally, Lu Che couldn't bear it any longer and stopped Lu Jiu who was peeling an apple for her.
She told herself that she just wanted to
"Ouch..." Lu Jiu's hand holding the fruit knife tilted and cut his finger.
Lu Che: "Brother... be careful, how are you, how could you hurt yourself..."
Her older brother is already an adult, but he can still cut his fingers while peeling an apple.
Lu Jiu exaggeratedly covered his small cut, screamed in pain, and shouted that he wanted to go out to find a doctor.
Unexpectedly, just as he put down the apple and stood up to leave, Lu Che grabbed his sleeve.
“Brother… stop acting, you’ve never been able to fool me since we were little…” Lu Che grabbed Lu Jiu and looked at him with a pair of dark eyes with a serious expression.
She has been smarter than her elder brother since she was young. Although she is the younger sister, she often gives advice to Lu Jiu.
With Lu Jiu's acting skills, it's simply not good enough.
Lu Jiu: …
“Hey, hey, hey… I knew my little Che was really smart. He can’t hide anything from you…” Lu Jiu forced out a flattering smile.
"Brother, don't change the subject deliberately. Tell me what happened and why you are avoiding the topic..."
Lu Che frowned, and suddenly thought of what happened a few days ago, and his eyes brightened.
"I remember now. A week ago, when I asked you where the young master had gone, you were hesitant. No, something must have happened to the young master, right? Tell me, what happened?"
After all, this was the man she had genuinely cared for for over twenty years.
Even though she hated his cold-bloodedness and his cruelty to the baby in her belly, Lu Che never doubted Lu Qilin's feelings for her.
After all, she still couldn't let go of her worries about that person.
Lu Jiu knew that his sister was smart, but he didn't expect her to be so smart.
He originally wanted to hide it from Lu Che, but now, there was no other way—
Lu Jiu: "Alas... Lu Qilin that kid... he... he went to Ziyun Mountain."
"What!" Lu Che's eyes were shocked. "Why did he suddenly go to Ziyun Mountain? Ziyun Mountain is so dangerous. The people there must have caught him a long time ago. This happened several years ago..."
They have been married for three years, and the foreign elements who attacked them on Ziyun Mountain three years ago have been arrested.
Lu Jiu sighed: "He did it all for you. Xiao Che, do you still remember what your father once said, that you must not let the outside world know that you are a girl no matter what?" (To be continued)
