Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

Squeak.

The ward door opened.

Wen Yubai appeared at the doorway, turned around, and looked directly at Su Ruan.

"Junior sister..."

Su Ruan looked up in surprise.

Is Wen Yubai calling her?

Over there, Wen Yubai looked directly into Su Ruan's eyes. "You're my junior sister, aren't you?"

Su Ruan froze.

Wen Yubai's tone was resolute.

Su Ruan recalled Wen Yubai's outburst when he heard about the Nine Needles of Rejuvenation, and how he even asked her if she knew his master.

So, in Wen Yubai's mind, it was his master who knew the Nine Needles of Rejuvenation?

Why can't Wen Yubai do that?

"I can't answer you right now," Su Ruan said.

She couldn't recall any specific memories at all, so the best option was to say nothing.

"But I'd really like to know why you don't know the Nine Needles for Rejuvenation."

Su Ruan looked back.

Her expression was straightforward and frank.

Wen Yubai dodged it immediately.

"The Nine Needles for Rejuvenation is a needle technique recorded in ancient books, but the specific method of application has long been lost."

"My master spent her whole life researching before she finally made some progress. Three years ago, she sent a message saying that the method of applying the Nine Needles of Returning Yang had been found, but then she lost contact with me."

Have they lost contact?

Su Ruan did not expect this outcome.

However, she still couldn't piece together a vague truth from Wen Yubai's words.

But around this time three years ago...

Wen Yubai had been carefully observing Su Ruan's expression, but found that although she was deep in thought, she did not show any other emotions.

He was unable to obtain any information.

Although he was fairly certain that the woman in front of him was his master's disciple, his junior sister, it was still just a guess.

Su Ruan did not intend to respond.

An eerie silence fell outside the ward.

Until the ward door was opened again.

Su Qingqian came out.

She also felt a great sense of relief.

When Su Ruan and she looked at each other, they both showed the same helpless, bitter smile.

Wen Yubai nodded and greeted Su Qingqian before striding away.

Su Qingqian leaned close to Su Ruan's ear.

"Ruan Ruan, I didn't know you had this trick up your sleeve."

She raised an eyebrow again. "And also, you and that Dr. Wen..."

"I have a feeling there's something between you two?"

Su Ruan quickly shook her head.

"That's not true."

Her only debt to this world is to Su Qingqian.

Everyone else is irrelevant to her.

"Let's go, I still have things to finish."

As for Lu Shuangshuang, the rest is just a matter of slow recuperation. With the successor of the legendary physician Wen Yubai here, she doesn't need any help at all.

Besides, she couldn't help anyway.

"Walk."

Su Qingqian didn't intend to stay either.

She only came to check on Lu Shuangshuang's condition, and now that she is alright, she naturally wants to go back.

And these people from the Lu family, they're obviously rich and powerful. Being in the same room with them is really stressful.

When Madam Lu chased after them, she didn't even see their backs.

"Yanci, we haven't properly thanked them yet."

"How about I treat the two young ladies to dinner tonight?"

"Let's do it this weekend," Lu Yanci said.

"We have a very important experiment to do tonight, and neither Su Ruan nor I can get away."

Mrs. Lu was even more surprised.

"That young lady is from your project team? That's really... amazing!"

She then looked intently at Lu Yanci.

"Son, let me tell you, if you meet a good girl, you should make your move as soon as possible."

"If you act too late, it will be too late to regret it."

Lu Yanci sighed helplessly, "Mom, what are you saying!"

Madam Lu gave Lu Yanci a light, disapproving look.

"Mom is talking about these two girls today!"

"That little miracle doctor named Su Ruan is quite good. She's beautiful, capable, and just as smart as you. She and you can fight side by side."

"Oh my god!"

"Of course, that girl named Su Qingqian is also quite good. Those who can get into this school are not the brainless and superficial types. Moreover, she looks gentle and proper, and she would be very suitable to be our Lu family's daughter-in-law."

Lu Yanci: ...

He knew that his mother and his sister would both have the same perspective.

Don't worry about my affairs.

Lu's mother frowned slightly. "You're not talking about that online boyfriend, are you?"

"Son, let me tell you, online dating is unreliable! Who knows who's on the other end of the internet cable!"

"Look at the wonderful person you have right beside you, why bother with a scammer online who's trying to swindle you out of your money?"

Lu Yanci subconsciously retorted.

"She's not a fraud."

Although he did not agree with his mother's statement that a cute little girl was his online love interest.

But this little cutie is definitely not a scammer.

Everyone says she is, but what did she lie to him about?

Did they scam him out of his money?

But in the end, she returned it all to him.

Did I deceive his feelings?

But in the past six months, it was she who devoted so much emotion and time.

And he...

He did nothing.

Lu's mother looked at her son in silence.

Could this kid actually be taking it seriously?

They were still investigating just two days ago.

She sighed heavily.

Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren!

The blind son has lazy tofu.

"Just don't regret it later!"

After saying that, Lu's mother turned and left.

That's all she could say as a mother.

It's such a pity that such a good girl can't become his daughter-in-law!

However, the fact that her Shuangshuang has a good relationship with others is some consolation.

Lu Yanci stood outside the door for a while before turning around and going inside.

The door hasn't been opened yet.

Then I heard hurried footsteps again.

"Xie Linchuan?"

Xie Linchuan's face still bore the flush of intense exercise.

"Brother Lu!"

Xie Linchuan stopped at the corner of the corridor as if he had been caught red-handed.

But he remained stubborn and showed no sign of flinching.

His slight, frequent, and subtle movements revealed his tension and unease.

"I...I just happened to come here to see Brother Lu..."

Lu Yanci didn't speak, but just looked at him quietly and nodded calmly.

"that……"

Xie Linchuan paused for a moment, as if he had finally remembered why he had come to see Lu Yanci.

"Brother Lu, I wanted to ask you what I need to do if I want to transfer to J University?"

"Oh, I see."

Lu Yanci continued to look at Xie Linchuan, noticing Xie Linchuan's tightly clenched fingers.

"If that's the question you're asking, then I can answer you right now: no!"

"what?"

Xie Linchuan's eyes were full of doubt.

Why?

"Because school rules state that unless it's a serious illness, students are not allowed to transfer schools."

"In addition, you cannot attend the original school for less than a full year."

Disappointment flashed in Xie Linchuan's eyes.

"Is Lu Shuangshuang alright?"

This time, Lu Yanci did not answer him directly, but quietly looked at Xie Linchuan.

Xie Linchuan's forced composure finally began to falter slightly.

"I... I was just asking casually."

"oh."
