When He Yuzhu and the others heard the news, they all went to the hospital.
Fortunately, Lou Zhenheng was not destined to die. The spiritual spring water bought him time, and the doctors at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were also highly skilled.
However, Lou Zhenheng is getting old and can't hold on for much longer.
In fact, with He Yuzhu replacing Sha Zhu, Lou Zhenheng is the one who profited the most.
Without He Yuzhu, he would have been dead for several years.
Lin Jinghan comforted Tan Yalan and her daughter from the side.
"I'm fine," Lou Xiao'e said calmly.
Lin Jinghan knew that her relationship with her family was not good, so she said, "Your uncle is not in good health, so don't argue with your sister."
Lou Xiao'e explained, "I didn't argue with her. My mom and I were upstairs, and I don't know what she said to my dad."
Lou Xiaowan was relieved to learn that Lou Zhenheng was alright.
When Lou Xiaowan saw He Yuzhu and the others coming over, she went over to them.
"You must be Mr. He."
He Yuzhu said calmly, "Yes, that's me."
Lou Xiaowan didn't care about He Yuzhu's attitude and said with a smile, "I am Xiao'e's older sister."
Thank you for coming to see my dad. On behalf of my family, I thank you.
Xu Damao knew that He Yuzhu was unwilling to talk to her, so he took the initiative to step forward and said, "You don't need to thank me."
Lou Xiaowan turned to look at Xu Damao: "You're Xu Damao, right? When you were little, you came to our house, and I even played with you."
You were only ten years old then, and you already knew how to kiss girls on the lips.
You kissed me, don't you remember?
Xu Damao looked at Zhang Yan guiltily, his momentum weakening.
"Sister Xiaowan, wasn't I just being immature back then?"
Lou Xiaowan said nonchalantly, "If you were sensible, I wouldn't agree to it."
You were so funny back then.
"What's wrong? We haven't seen each other for decades, and you've become distant with your sister."
Xu Damao didn't dare say anything and slunk away.
He Yuzhu had arrived at Lou Xiao'e's side while Lou Xiaowan was talking to Xu Damao.
After Lou Xiaowan ousted Xu Damao, she was somewhat unhappy to see He Yuzhu arrive.
Lu Weiguo walked up to her and asked, puzzled, "Mom, who is he?"
“He is your aunt’s business partner,” Lou Xiaowan said helplessly.
She was truly disappointed.
He Yuzhu used to cook for the Lou family, and she only ate there once because she had something to do.
At the time, I thought He Yuzhu was just a cook who served people, so I didn't pay much attention to him.
If she had known that He Yuzhu would become so powerful, she should have treated him better back then.
Thinking of this, she felt extremely jealous of Lou Xiao'e.
When Lou Xiao'e went on blind dates, she asked He Yuzhu to cook for her several times.
Looking back now, she feels that Lou Zhenheng was biased and deliberately helped Lou Xiao'e build up her network of connections.
When Lu Weiguo heard that He Yuzhu was Lou Xiao'e's business partner, his eyes lit up.
He's been in Beijing for quite some time now. He's been staying at the place Lou Zhenheng arranged for him.
When he had nothing to do, he would come and chat with Lou Zhenheng to get closer to him.
He naturally knew of He Yuzhu's existence and the power behind him.
If he can get He Yuzhu's support, he will have achieved his goal of coming to see Lou Zhenheng.
"Mom, could you talk to my aunt and ask her to find me a job?"
My sister and I are both unemployed right now.
Lu Weihong hugged Lou Xiaowan's arm: "Yes, Mom. I still want to earn money to support you."
Lou Xiaowan was very dismissive of this.
Compared to Lou Xiao'e, the little money she had was nothing.
But compared to most people, she can be considered a wealthy person.
Lou Xiaowan never expected the Lu family's children to be filial to her.
She knew exactly who the Lu family was. She hadn't even settled accounts with them for all the grievances she'd suffered there.
The two children of the Lu family were merely an excuse for her to come here.
Lou Xiaowan didn't reveal these thoughts and said directly, "As you can see, your aunt has a misunderstanding about me."
If you want your aunt to arrange jobs for you, then go and curry favor with your grandfather.
Tan Yalan's attitude towards her was merely a matter of saving face. The only way to break through was through Lou Zhenheng.
Lu Weiguo and Lu Weihong were somewhat dissatisfied with what they heard.
They had tried to influence Lou Zhenheng during this time, but it was to no avail.
Lou Zhenheng no longer makes decisions about family matters.
They had to be mindful of Tan Yalan's attitude if they wanted to eat at the Lou family's house.
Just then, a figure ran over from the stairwell.
"Dad!" Lu Weiguo and Lu Weihong called out immediately upon seeing the man.
Lou Xiaowan also saw the person who came, and her eyes showed some complicated emotions.
Lu Jian also saw Lou Xiaowan and immediately walked over.
"Xiaowan, you're back. How's Dad?"
To maintain his relationship with Lou Jiapan, Lu Jian never changed how he addressed Lou Zhenheng.
Lou Xiaowan said with dissatisfaction, "We've been divorced for a long time, you shouldn't call me Dad."
Lu Jian didn't care: "Dad is Wei Guowei Hong's maternal grandfather, so it's not wrong for me to call him Dad."
"Let's not talk about that. When I went to pick up Weiguo and Weihong, the housekeeper told me that Dad was in the hospital and asked how he was doing."
Lou Xiaowan said, "Dad is fine."
Hearing this, Lu Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
Their only connection to the Lou family was Lou Zhenheng. He was the last person who wanted anything to happen to Lou Zhenheng.
Ideally, Lou Zhenheng would live to be a hundred years old.
"That's good. That's good. I'll find some tonics for Dad later, so he can have a good rest."
Lu Weiguo quietly nudged Lu Jian and gestured to He Yuzhu and the others.
“Those are all my aunt’s business partners.”
Lu Jian immediately understood and walked towards He Yuzhu and the others: "I'll go thank them."
Lu Jian had done his homework beforehand, specifically inquiring about He Yuzhu and others.
He had always wanted to find an opportunity to get to know people like He Yuzhu.
This is a great opportunity.
"Mr. He, Da Mao, thank you so much."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao with confusion, wanting to ask him, "Do you know him?"
Xu Damao shook his head, indicating that he did not know him.
He Yuzhu had never met Lu Jian.
Back then, the Lu family had a good social standing, and Lu's father was a leader. The Lu family looked down on the Lou family, let alone He Yuzhu, a cook.
As for Xu Damao, he had met Lu Jian, but only once or twice.
It's been decades since we last met, and my memory of it has long been hazy.
"You're welcome, it's what we should do." He Yuzhu guessed Lu Jian's identity.
Because this was a hospital, I just gave him a perfunctory response.
Lu Jian didn't care about anything else and reached out to shake hands with He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu had no choice but to shake hands with him.
Lu Jian took the opportunity to walk over: "I've heard of President He for a long time, but it's a pity I've never had the chance to meet him."
He Yuzhu wasn't in the mood to continue the conversation, so she said, "You're here to see Lou Xiaowan, right?"
"You two should find somewhere to catch up. Don't do it in the hallway, so as not to disturb the patient's rest."
Lu Jian felt a headache coming on when he saw that He Yuzhu's rejection was too obvious.
There was nothing he could do.
Ultimately, he was just Lou Xiaowan's ex-husband, and normally he shouldn't have come over.
He Yuzhu ignored him, and there was nothing he could do.
He planned to first establish a good relationship with the Lou family, and then gradually get in touch with He Yuzhu.
Lou Zhenheng woke up shortly afterward.
He Yuzhu said a few words to him and then left.
Lou Zhenheng's health improved, but his mood did not; he hesitated to speak several times.
He Yuzhu didn't want to get involved in the Lou family's internal affairs, so naturally he wouldn't stay at the hospital.
Only the Lou family remained in the hospital.
Lu Jian then took his two children and acted as a dutiful son and grandson, constantly showing concern and care for Lou Zhenheng.
Lou Xiao'e pretended not to see it and whispered to Tan Yalan. (End of Chapter)
