He spoke like that, Mingzhu could very well retort to him.
It was just... she didn't.
She stared at him, her eyes welling up.
Lu Qian regretted it a little, but he couldn't bring himself to say comforting words.
After a long silence, Mingzhu softly spoke: “I cannot compare to Mr. Lu, who has so many admirers.”
This is just hot air.
With an outsider present, Lu Qian didn't want to say much.
Gu Yunfan was quite understanding: "I'll wait in the car! You guys explain things clearly!"
He smiled again: "Mr. Lu, this is a big misunderstanding!"
After that, she left with Xiao Shuoshuo in her arms.
Even pearls have to go.
Lu Qian reached out and grabbed her, his voice hoarse: "Mingzhu!"

Lu Qian knew she was angry, so he apologized to her gently: "I was wrong! Can you forgive me, Uncle Lu?"
Her eyes were warm and bright.
Lu Qian gently touched her face and asked again, "How's the child?"
If it were the past, she would have argued with him for a long time because his words were hurtful.
But he got sick.

Mingzhu didn't want to irritate him; she wanted him to be angry with her. She thought that if he was in a bad mood, it would affect his condition. She was a kind girl, and even now, she hadn't thought about their future. She still endured the grievance and said, "It's good."

Then she looked at him.
Lu Qian's face was pale and thin.
He looked at her with a gentle smile, but there was a touch of sadness in it.
She understood his intentions.
At that moment, Mingzhu felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.
It seems that the confident and composed Uncle Lu she liked has disappeared.
He became an ordinary, commonplace man.
Even jealousy, he didn't dare to admit.

Lu Qian immediately followed up, "When's your next prenatal checkup? I'll go with you?"
Míngzhū gazed up at him.
She said very softly, "Next Thursday morning, nine o'clock."
Lu Qian didn't say anything more, just gently touched her head, just like he used to… Like an elder and a lover at the same time.
None of them made any promises.
She didn't say, but he was sick and she would still be with him.
He has no intention of remarrying.
Two children became their sole connection.
Mingzhu left the ward, her heart heavy. She walked to the end of the corridor and stood alone.
She cried for a long time.
Because of Lu Qian's illness, because of the changes that this illness brought to him...
She thought, even if they were apart, she still hoped he was the spirited Mr. Lu.
She didn't know.
For as long as she stood there, Lu Qian stood at the door of the ward.
He didn't tell her that just now.
His illness cannot be cured here, he has to go abroad.
He thought, he wanted to accompany her for a prenatal checkup.
……

Gu Yunfan didn't get along with her, but seeing that she had gotten off the car, he immediately got out and opened the door for her.
"Well... running into an old flame, shouldn't you be happy?"
"Why are your eyes red?"
……
Mingzhu sat in the back seat and said, "It's none of your business!"
Gu Yunfan fastened his seat belt and turned back, saying: "Do you think I want to look after you! It's your sister-in-law who asked me to watch over you, afraid that you'll be heartbroken and have a miscarriage! Oh, I don't understand you two. Don't you love each other? Now there's another one in your belly. If he suddenly passed away, wouldn't it be a pity!"


Gu Yunfan lightly pressed the accelerator: "Let me say! Bring him closer, torture him good... Actually, he's really handsome, not worse than your scumbag brother!"

"Gu Yunfan, do you still want to eat?"
Of course Gu Yunfan thought so, although Wen Man couldn't possibly accept him, it wouldn't hurt to just go take a look.
The result went to the villa.
Just look at Huo Mingzhu, this crybaby!
……
Half a month later.

Mingzhu had her checkup accompanied by a driver. Because Lu Qian had said he would accompany her, she didn't bring any family members.

Old Zhao sent her to the door of the ward.
Smiling.
Mingzhu knocked on the door and went in. As soon as she entered, she saw a ward that was neatly tidy.
Sunlight streams in.
The bed was clean and tidy, as if no one had slept in it.
Everything here was spotless, and not even a single thing belonging to Lu Qian was left behind.
Mingzhu was stunned.
Where is Lu Qian?
A nurse doing rounds came to see her and pulled an envelope from her pocket, handing it to her.
...were from Lu Qian.
A few words were written on the pristine envelope:
The Pearl Awakens.
The pearl instantly opened, revealing only a single sheet of paper with a short message on it.

If you meet a nice boy, seize the happiness!
A letter falls from between the fingers.

Mingzhu lowered her head, didn't pick it up, just tears fell constantly.

Even now, she still doesn't know if she was waiting for Lu Qian. Waiting for his illness to recover, waiting for him to tell her to forgive Uncle Lu, that they could start anew. That from now on, Uncle Lu would exercise every day to take care of his health, and give Mingzhu a happy life.
She hasn't figured it out yet.
He said, don't wait for him.
Who is waiting for him?
She didn't wait at all; she just came over to go for a prenatal checkup with him.
She just thought about him naming the child.
She just wondered if, because of her, he had more courage to live.
As a result, he once again rejected her.
Life presents many choices, and he hasn't chosen to stay by her side through the good times or the bad. Mingzhu thought, if she were 18 years old, she would probably have run to him without hesitation, searching for him across mountains and seas.
But she is over 30.
She has loved ones, she has a child in her womb.
He said if you don't want to, then don't.
When it comes to ruthlessness, who can compare to Mr. Lu...
Lao Zhao felt something was wrong, and when he came over, he was stunned: "Miss, why are you crying?"
Mingzhu gently wiped away her tears.
She said, "I didn't cry! The wind blew in my eyes!"
Lao Zhao's eyes widened, and he saw the letter. He gently picked it up.
Míngzhū slowly took it, then slowly tore it apart. She cried and laughed: "Zhào Shū, from now on, just pretend this person never existed."
She knew he was seriously ill.
things might not get better.

You could die!

But his decision, perhaps, was that she wouldn't even be able to see him for the last time.
Lu Qian, you're truly ruthless...

Old Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and he silently helped her leave.
