President, the deceased lady has three more children

Chapter 548 Lu Mingzhu, do you still need to make excuses? (Page 12)

With Nanxing's goodbye, He Feng finally snapped out of his shock.

With a somber expression, he didn't go back into the cemetery. Instead, he walked straight out, hurriedly got into his car, and headed towards the hospital.

A short while later, a white car followed behind his car. Nanxing was driving, and Feng Jiejie was sitting in the passenger seat.

Nanxing stared intently at He Feng's car ahead, following it at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

"Xingxing, what's wrong?" Feng Jiejie asked in confusion.

“What I just said panicked He Feng. He was originally going to see Amy’s mother, but he left without even going to see her. The direction he’s heading is clearly towards the hospital.”

"If I'm not mistaken, he should be going to see Lu Mingzhu right now. Since things have already come to this point, I'll just add fuel to the fire and make things burn even brighter, and make things come to light even faster."

“He Feng must know about the car accident back then, otherwise he wouldn’t have reacted like this, and he certainly wouldn’t have rushed to find Lu Mingzhu so quickly.”

"Indeed, it was a bit odd that he suddenly spoke so loudly when you mentioned the word 'overseas'."

Feng Jiejie stroked her chin: "But weren't you going to find Gu Yihe?"

"I forgot about that," Nanxing said, somewhat annoyed.

"When we get to the hospital, you go find Lu Mingzhu, and I'll go find Gu Yihe. Give me the prescription, and I'll give it to Gu Yihe." Feng Jiejie directly arranged the two's next move.

"No way." Nanxing refused without even thinking. "Gu Yihe already has those kinds of feelings for you. If you take the initiative to go to him again, who knows what he will think of you? I'm not comfortable with that."

"What's there to worry about? It's not like this is the first time I've met him, and nothing's happened all these times. As long as I don't do anything, it'll be fine, right? He won't actually lay a hand on me or hurt me."

"Most importantly, didn't you say that those patients absolutely need to have their dressings changed this afternoon? If we delay, you'll regret it terribly. I'll go in your place."

Feng Jiejie understood Nanxing well; she knew that Nanxing was worried about those patients, otherwise she wouldn't have taken the initiative to say she wanted to find Gu Yihe.

However, it is also necessary to investigate He Feng and Lu Mingzhu thoroughly.

"But……"

"There are no 'buts'. Trust me, I'll come back to you after I find Gu Yihe." Feng Jiejie interrupted Nanxing before she could finish speaking.

"Okay, then be careful. Give the things to Gu Yihe and go back to the company. He knows what to do next." Nanxing agreed helplessly.

Because there really aren't any good solutions right now.

“I’m not going back to the company. I’m worried about leaving you alone in the hospital.”

“Who said I’m alone? I’ll call my third brother; he’s free today, so I’ll have him pick me up. He Feng will definitely make other moves soon, so I need to discuss it with my eldest brother and have him find someone to keep an eye on him.”

"Tomorrow is my homecoming banquet, and you have to spend the whole day with me. So you have to finish all your work today and you can't leave me alone."

Nanxing spoke to Feng Jiejie in a rare, slightly coquettish tone.

Feng Jiejie smiled helplessly: "Okay, I'll listen to you, alright? Don't worry, tomorrow is such an important day for you, I'll definitely be with you."

Nanxing smiled slightly.

He Feng was distracted the whole way. He had been in a state of turmoil these past few days and only wanted Fu Yunchuan to perish with them.

But what Nanxing said earlier made him completely panic, because Lu Mingzhu hadn't given the medicine to Fu Yunchuan yet, and Fu Yunchuan hadn't taken it. He absolutely couldn't let things be exposed.

If Lu Mingzhu had already given those medicines to Fu Yunchuan, he wouldn't be in such a hurry now, and he wouldn't be worried that Nanxing would find out about what happened back then.

He had to get Lu Mingzhu to give Fu Yunchuan the medicine as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, in Lu Mingzhu's hospital room, Fu Yunchuan and Jiang Bai were looking at Lu Mingzhu, who was half-lying on the bed.

In just one day and one night, Lu Mingzhu looked much more haggard.

"Brother Yun Chuan, you've finally come to see me again? I thought you'd be so angry that you'd never want to see me again," Lu Mingzhu said with a bitter smile, her pale face revealing a hint of bitterness.

Fu Yunchuan remained expressionless and unmoved.

“Lu Mingzhu, didn’t I tell you before that only Nanxing could save you? You didn’t believe me, and you treated her that way, which is tantamount to you blocking your own way out.”

“I know, so I regret it now. I thought my health wasn’t that bad, but the doctor said some things today that made me realize I really don’t have long to live.”

Tears streamed down Lu Mingzhu's face as she looked at Fu Yunchuan through her teary eyes, trying to see a hint of heartache, or perhaps the same emotion and compromise as before, on his face.

But there was nothing. No matter how she looked, there was nothing, not a trace. All she could see was a chilling coldness.

She knew that everything was beyond repair. If she had some hesitation before, she had no hesitation now.

She absolutely had to control Fu Yunchuan, make him work for her, and make him listen to her. Only in this way could she survive and live the life she wanted.

"Brother Yun Chuan, are you blaming me now? Blaming me for how I treated Nan Xing and those two children back then? Did you already know Nan Xing and those two children's identities at that time? Should I congratulate you on Nan Xing's return after waiting for so many years? And with a pair of children?"

She continued speaking, tears streaming down her face, but she felt extremely dissatisfied and jealous.

She had been by Fu Yunchuan's side for so many years, and no matter how she hinted or suggested, no matter what she did, Fu Yunchuan was unwilling to touch her. He even drugged her last time.

Under those circumstances, Fu Yunchuan would rather harm himself than touch her.

But now Nanxing has returned with two sons. What does this mean? It means that Fu Yunchuan had already slept with Nanxing back then, and the two had become husband and wife. And she was still trying her best to get Fu Yunchuan.

Fu Yunchuan was deceiving her from beginning to end! She was like a fool being completely fooled.

"I am indeed happy," Fu Yunchuan admitted directly.

"Yes, you're happy, but what about me? Brother Yun Chuan, what about me? Have you ever thought about me? What have I done for you all these years? How can you bear to let me become a laughingstock?"

Fu Yunchuan looked at Lu Mingzhu's reaction with a cold expression.

"Over the years, if it weren't for the fact that you saved me when I was a child, do you think I would have let you stay by my side for so long? Over the years, you have already gained a lot; it's just that you were too greedy."

"So you still remember when I saved you when I was little? I can't believe so many years have passed."

Lu Mingzhu got off the hospital bed, and A-Kui went to help her, but Lu Mingzhu stopped her.

"No need, I'm not at the point where I need help. I'm in good spirits right now."

She walked over to the thermos next to her, poured herself a cup of light-colored tea, and drank it.

The others watched her every move.

“Actually, after yesterday’s coma and this morning the doctor sternly told me about my physical condition, I’ve thought a lot.”

She poured herself another cup of tea and walked over to Fu Yunchuan.

"Brother Yun Chuan, I actually regret it now. If I hadn't been so fixated on my feelings for you, I might not be the way I am now. Maybe we could have really gotten along under a different identity."

Fu Yunchuan watched her coldly, wanting to see what else she would say.

Jiang Bai tried his best to remain invisible while listening to Lu Mingzhu's words, but he didn't believe her.

If Lu Mingzhu were truly someone who could easily see things clearly, how could she have remained so stubbornly ignorant for so many years?

Lu Mingzhu clenched the cup in her hand, not expecting that Fu Yunchuan would not react to so much she said.

"Brother Yun Chuan, don't you also think I've changed a lot since I was a child? Am I different now?"

She continued, saying that over the years she knew all too well what to say to soften Fu Yunchuan's heart.

Even if Fu Yunchuan suspects her now, he doesn't have any real evidence. If she keeps talking, she still has a chance to soften Fu Yunchuan's heart.

Instead, He Feng told her something else that day: what happened between Fu Yunchuan and Nan Xing. He said that as long as she told him about it, it would definitely dispel Fu Yunchuan's suspicions about her.

"Brother Yun Chuan, does this cup of tea look familiar? Do you remember when I fed you the water from my own cup back then? You were a germaphobe and refused to open your mouth, even though you were delirious from the fever. It took a lot of effort to get you to open your mouth and feed you the water."

"No, it can't really be called water, it was tea back then. I don't know if you remember the taste of that tea, it's actually similar to this. Try it, it's a way of giving our years of relationship a proper ending."

She handed the water glass to Fu Yunchuan and continued:

"I don't have much time left to live anyway. If you just agree to one request, I'll die in peace. And I promise I'll never appear in front of you and Nanxing again."

Fu Yunchuan's expression changed slightly when Lu Mingzhu mentioned the water from their childhood. Lu Mingzhu had never mentioned this before, but he did have a vague memory of it.

So, how did Lu Mingzhu know all that? Or was Lu Mingzhu really the one who saved him back then?

"What? Now you can't even grant me a cup of tea or a single request? Brother Yun Chuan, are you really going to be so heartless? I just want to experience the same feeling I had when I was a child."

Fu Yunchuan looked at Lu Mingzhu coldly before taking the teacup from her hand. The tea tasted different from the slightly bitter flavor he had tasted before.

His eyes instantly turned fierce, but the next second they returned to their cold indifference.

Seeing him drink it, Lu Mingzhu finally showed a genuine smile on her face.

“Brother Yun Chuan, I know I’ve changed a lot since I was a child, but I can’t help it. I can’t control myself. Nan Xing’s appearance makes me feel very insecure. I shouldn’t have gone abroad in a fit of anger back then. Otherwise, you and Nan Xing wouldn’t have gotten married, and we definitely wouldn’t be in this situation now.”

Lu Mingzhu wanted to take the teacup back, but Jiang Bai had already taken it away and put it away first.

She paused for a moment, then casually withdrew her hand.

"So what was the request you asked me to grant?"

Fu Yunchuan's cold voice rang out again. As for Lu Mingzhu's self-righteous and sentimental words, which she thought could soften Fu Yunchuan's heart, they were of no use to him.

He asked these questions not because he still had any soft spot for Lu Mingzhu, but simply because he wanted to find out what Lu Mingzhu wanted to do, or what the people behind her wanted to do.

Lu Mingzhu mistakenly believed that Fu Yunchuan believed her.

"I want you to take good care of my parents after I die. I'm unfilial and can't take care of them in their old age, so I can only ask you for this. Please promise me, just for the sake of the time I saved you when I was a child."

"I will agree to your request on the condition that you are indeed the one who saved me when I was a child."

Lu Mingzhu's heart tightened subconsciously.

"Brother Yun Chuan, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by saying that I am indeed the one who saved you when you were a child? What do you mean by this? Do you think I would lie to you about this?"
