Chapter 108: 088 Lu Han: Sister? Brother-in-law? Brother? (2 updates)_2

Lu Han often got angry with his old man, who is Lu Maoyan?

In Beijing, who wouldn’t respectfully call him "Old Master Lu" upon seeing him? Even his grandfather wouldn’t dare to hold his head too high in front of Lu Maoyan, despite having become his father-in-law.

Even with his formidable little aunt, who elevated his status to that of an elder, his grandfather still treaded carefully, not daring to be too arrogant.

In Beijing, there were only two people who dared to pull a whisker from the fierce tiger Lu Maoyan, one was his aunt Bai Wei, the other was his cousin, Lu Han.

Sure enough, Wu Donglin’s face turned extremely ugly, and he stormed off, dragging Wu Jie by the hand.

Lu Han had just turned around wanting to say a few words to Tang Su. Her eyes were red just now, the poor girl seemed upset, as if she had been wronged. Lu Han felt a strong sense of guilt, wanting to kiss her and hold her for comfort.

Who would have expected Wu Donglin to come back like a child, "Doctor Lu, it’s working hours now. I’ve been waiting for you all morning. Shouldn’t you go with me now? I’m still waiting for your examination results."

Lu Han: "..."

As it turns out, you can’t understate the spiciness of old ginger.

This elder, who had no blood relation, indeed had a faster reaction than those two old men in his family.

Lu Han could only soothe Tang Su with a look, "It’ll be the end of my shift in a little while, just hang in there for a bit."

"Yeah, go ahead with your work," Tang Su nodded.

She actually really wanted Lu Han to hold her. As long as Lu Han held her, she wouldn’t feel as wronged.

She also knew that Lu Han was very busy.

Actually, the fact that Lu Han was so busy yet still made time to see her, filled quite a bit of the void in Tang Su’s heart.

Lu Han, with his sensitive mind, noticed that something was off with Tang Su. After giving Bai Dingxian a hint with his eyes, Lu Han turned and walked away with Wu Donglin and his grandchild.

Bai Dingxian turned back to ask Tang Su, "Do you want some fruit? Should I have someone go buy some?"

Tang Su shook her head, "I don’t want to eat."

"What’s wrong, exactly? You were so lively during dinner yesterday, but after one night, you have a fever. Mainly, your spirits don’t look good. How can you not seem like someone who just fell in love?"

Bai Dingxian understood that Lu Han had asked him to stay behind to keep Tang Su company for a while.

"Nothing, I was just too tired last night and went to sleep after washing my hair."

"Did Lu Han bully you last night? Did you spend the night together?" Bai Dingxian brazenly asked.

"No, Doctor Bai, don’t talk nonsense," Tang Su blushed.

"That’s good. I was really worried that Lu Han had made you sick last night. Are you afraid of marriage?" Bai Dingxian had many questions in his mind, and since Tang Su was willing to chat, he simply asked his biggest doubt.

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" When had she developed a fear of marriage?

Tang Su was completely bewildered.

"If you’re not afraid of marriage, why did Lu Han ask me and Old Tan to keep your relationship a secret for three months? Do you know how twisted my aunt and uncle-in-law are? Keeping the secret for a month, both Old Tan and I had to risk everything, and three months? That’s just not humanly possible."

"Why keep it a secret for three months?" Tang Su, suddenly agitated, sat up straight, disturbing the IV line. Blood from the back of her hand immediately flowed back into the tube.

Could it be that after three months, Lu Han would break up with her?

Just three months?

This timing is too short, isn’t it?

Bai Dingxian noticed and reminded her not to move her hand around.

Tang Su hurriedly laid her hand flat again, allowing the blood to flow back, and the liquid resumed its normal infusion.

"What else could it be, if not that Lu Han wants to delay your being entangled by the Lu Family? He’s obviously considering you. Otherwise, by New Year’s Eve, my aunt and the others would be coming over to propose a marriage to your family and have you two married before the year ends," Wu Jie explained.

Tang Su: "..."

So, had she been overthinking things on her own, misunderstanding Lu Han’s intentions all this time?

When Lu Han asked her how long she wanted to be in a relationship, was he thinking about them dating more before marriage?

Not before breaking up?

Her pig-headed mind had failed to realize, the end of a romance isn’t a one-way street—it doesn’t only lead to separation; there’s also marriage.

Lu Han wanted to marry her, didn’t he?

With the realization striking her, Tang Su suddenly felt much more energetic.

Her eyes lit up, regaining their usual luster, and the fragile, desolate look that clouded her face instantly healed. Although she was still a bit pale, she looked much better than before.

Watching Tang Su virtually come back to life in an instant, Bai Dingxian frowned, utterly confused.

The emotional changes of a girl really are unpredictable.

He just couldn’t figure it out.

At that moment, Bai Dingxian’s phone rang. The emergency department was short-staffed and needed him to come over and help.

"I’m on my way," Bai Dingxian said as he got up from the phone call. Concerned about Tang Su, she waved him off with a smile, "Doctor Bai, go on with your work, I’ll be fine by myself."

"Alright then, I’m off. You still have some time, take a short nap, and when you open your eyes, Lu Han will be here," he told her.

"Okay, got it."

Tang Su stifled a laugh at the corner of her mouth; she was the one who had worked herself into a fever after all.

But, she had to thank this fever, because without it, who knows how long she might have continued to overthink by herself.

After Bai Dingxian inadvertently resolved the knot in her heart, Tang Su felt an immediate release from any mental burden and soon felt drowsy. Lying down, she actually fell asleep.

Nurse Xiaoyao checked in on time, feeling that the IV fluid should be about finished, and came over to remove the bottle.

Seeing that Tang Su was asleep, with rosy cheeks, a smile on her lips, and even a small snore, Xiaoyao couldn’t help but feel moved: The power of love is truly great. When she was brought in this morning, she was in such a sorry state; but once her boyfriend showed up, her complexion brightened, she beamed with health, and she even fell asleep peacefully—how wonderful.

The on-duty doctor came for an inspection, then decided there was no need for further IVs. He prescribed some medication and said she would be fine after taking it for a couple of days.

When Tang Su fell ill, Lu Han worked with increased efficiency, finishing the morning appointments twenty minutes ahead of schedule and even went to the billing office to settle Tang Su’s bill.

The billing office colleague cheerfully said to Lu Han, "Lu Han, your sister and your brother-in-law really make a handsome couple. You’re so lucky as her brother."

Lu Han: "..."

Sister? Brother-in-law? Brother?
