Chapter 2178: Can Hold On
"It's just a few steps away, what's the point of accompanying me?"

Lu Zhenzhen asked the two caregivers to go out for lunch while she went to the bathroom to wash her face.

Nan Jiaojiao didn't actually sit down. She stood up and walked around the ward. There was nothing to eat except fruits. Moreover, the amount of fruits was the same as when she came last time. The apple on the top was not even moved.

Father Lu had just escaped danger and was still in a coma. Lu Zhenzhen put down her work and stayed with him. She had no appetite and had lost weight in just two days.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped for a while before Lu Zhenzhen came out. She washed her face, and the hair on both sides of her temples was wet by the water and stuck to her face. She gently hooked it away with her little finger, crumpled up the tissue she had used in her hand and threw it into the trash can.

"Bo Yanqing sent you here?"

Nan Jiaojiao: "Well, I'll stay with you for a while, and wait for him to pick me up after get off work."

"You were so busy yesterday, why don't you go to the company to clean up today?"

"You know what?"

Lu Zhenzhen glanced at her and said, "Is there anything about you that I don't know? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Nan Jiaojiao spoke softly, "Senior Brother went, but he didn't ask me to go. I can handle it."

"Will you still play the clerk game in the future?"

Nan Jiaojiao faced the teasing calmly and said, "I can't play with it anymore."

"It should have been done a long time ago. Otherwise, if you don't have a career that's obvious, Pei Dongshi will always support you. Even if Bo Yanqing loves you, if you have a close man by your side and it's not related to work, sooner or later he will feel alienated."

Lu Zhenzhen picked an orange, sat on the sofa, and motioned Nan Jiaojiao to come over. She peeled the orange herself and said a few life mottos at the right time.

Nan Jiaojiao listened obediently and never refuted. She took the orange handed to her by Lu Zhenzhen and looked around, "Did Brother Zhe just leave?"

"He has been guarding for two days without much sleep. He has to take care of my dad and handle the business of both families. I don't want him to be too tired, so I urged him to go home and wait until he gets enough sleep before taking my place."

Gao Zhe listened to Lu Zhenzhen very much. Since he had agreed, he would not just respond with words but turned around to deal with the work.

There was a thick pile of documents on the desk, all of which were held by Lu Zhenzhen. How could he do any official work? "What about you? You've also been through two days."

"I'm fine. Mom was discharged from the hospital last night and I slept next door for the night."

"Is Mama Lu okay?"

"She's okay."

Lu Zhenzhen took a slice of orange in his mouth, leaned back on the sofa, and didn't put it in his mouth for a long time. His voice seemed to be blocked, "I'm very tired."

She is a grown-up lady who has not suffered much hardship since childhood and has been brought up in pampered conditions. How could she take care of others?

But she really did it herself to show filial piety by the bedside.

Nan Jiaojiao felt distressed, "Go back and rest, I'll take your place here at night."

"you?"

Lu Zhenzhen glanced over, not looking down on her, but with a hint of smile in her eyes. She put the orange in her mouth and raised her hand to rub Nan Jiaojiao's head.

"What are you taking care of? You're still a child."

Nan Jiaojiao frowned, "I'm only one and a half years younger than you!"

“Isn’t that small too?”

Lu Zhenzhen rubbed her twice and then pushed her away. "You can go back after playing for a while. You are not needed here. I didn't do much. There are nurses here. I am just watching over here. I am under a lot of psychological pressure."

She didn't have to hide her words in front of Nan Jiaojiao, and she blurted out everything she hadn't had the heart to say in front of Gao Zhe.

Nan Jiaojiao knew that she couldn't beat her, so she didn't force it. She just came over every day to stay with her for a while longer.
