Even if I can't fulfill my promise at that time, I might be able to use other methods to make the rich woman change her mind.

Looking back at the emergency building behind him, Lu Chen silently put his phone back into his trouser pocket and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Qingbao was still looking around, pretending to enjoy the scenery.

"what?"

Seeing her like this, Lu Chen felt amused and teased her, "What are you looking at?"

"Looking at the bad bird." Qingbao pointed at a little sparrow on the branch in front of him.

“Why is it a bad bird?”

"Because it's because he's secretly messaging other girls without telling his girlfriend."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"why are you laughing!"

Comrade Xiao Qin turned around and glared at him in dissatisfaction: "Stop laughing!"

"Well, stop laughing."

Lu Chen coughed dryly: "Shu Yu just expressed his gratitude to me for what happened just now."

"Humph......"

With a groan, perhaps because he felt that he was being unreasonable, Qingbao did not continue the topic. He just stretched out his right hand with his palm facing up in front of Lu Chen, and ordered with a pouty mouth:

"Let's hold hands!"

"Oh......"

"You seem very reluctant!"

"No, there is no reluctance at all."

"Don't hold my hand if you don't want to! I won't force you!"

"Okay then, I won't hold you anymore."

"..."

"Lu Chen! You're so annoying!!"

......

......

"Miss, the matter has been taken care of."

"The hospital will contact Mr. Lu immediately, and the perpetrator will apologize to Mr. Lu in person and give Mr. Lu a certain amount of compensation..."

On the other side, the emergency building.

Standing next to Lu Shuyu, Butler Li whispered the results of the handling of the "vase incident".

The little rich woman listened quietly, without saying much, but just whispered:

"Lu Chen forgot to take the medicine with him. Remember to arrange for someone to deliver it later."

"I see."

"Well, let's go then."

"Okay...Miss, what's wrong?"

Seeing Lu Shuyu suddenly stop, Butler Li was a little confused.

The little rich woman turned around and said silently:

"Uncle Li, Lu Chen said he can bring dad back safely and help Tongsheng get through this difficult time."

"Uh......"

His expression became a little strange. Butler Li, who had heard Lu Chen brag about this before, didn't know what to say for a moment.

The rich young lady also noticed his hesitation and was slightly stunned.

"Why, did Lu Chen tell you about this?"

"Yes, Mr. Lu mentioned it when you were talking to Miss Qin in the room."

"..."

His eyes widened slightly, and after a few seconds, Lu Shuyu finally figured out the reason.

Lowering her eyes, she asked softly:

"Did he also ask why your mother agreed to let me go to Europe?"

"Yes......"

"Besides that? What else did he ask?"

"I also asked..."

Butler Li hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully: "You also asked me if I knew what you thought, young lady."

"..."

Standing there with complicated eyes, the rich woman fell silent again.

By now, she certainly understood that Lu Chen was determined not to let her leave.

But you have to know that Lu Chen did not have this attitude last night.

Last night, although Lu Chen tried to keep me, he only tried briefly and gave up after hearing my clear rejection.

But why did it suddenly happen today...

Is it something to do with what's in the safe?

Lu Shuyu was not stupid to begin with, and he knew some inside information, so he couldn't help but think in this direction.

Such speculation made her mood even more complicated.

Because if this is true, it means that Lu Chen's retention may not be due to "feelings", but due to some other "compelling" reasons.

While wanting to start over.

At the same time, she couldn't bear to leave Lu Chen.

I want to break it off cleanly.

At the same time, I couldn't help but keep in touch with her.

At the same time, I wanted to have a reason to convince myself to stay.

On the other hand, I didn't want to think that all this was just because Lu Chen had to do it...

The rich young woman bit her lip lightly, not knowing what she was really thinking at the moment, so she could only pretend to be calm and nodded.

"I understand, let's go."

"Yes...Miss, are we going to Green Ivy Biology?"

"No, go home and tell Mr. Cheng to postpone the signing of the contract for a while."

Under the surprised gaze of Butler Li, Lu Shuyu turned and walked out of the consulting room, leaving only one sentence -

"I've already promised Lu Chen that I won't leave."

......

......

"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!"

"I was... Oh, I won't say anymore. This is my fault. I will never shirk my responsibility!"

"Luckily you're okay, otherwise I would regret it to death."

"Don't worry, I will definitely take responsibility to the end..."

At 5:30 in the afternoon, the sun outside the window had already set in the west and the sunlight had become soft.

Ward 17-15 was bustling with activity. In addition to Lu Chen and Qingbao, there was also Director Dong, who had previously handled the "vase incident," and a man in a wheelchair.

At this moment, the man was apologizing to Lu Chen non-stop and looked very upset.

Thanks to the intervention of Butler Li, the hospital quickly investigated the whole story.

It was probably that this man had a quarrel with another patient in the same ward over some trivial matter, and the quarrel became more and more intense, and both sides became more and more angry.

But both of them had broken legs, so they couldn't do it directly, so it ended up turning into "throwing things".

You throw me a pillow, I throw you a lunch box.

In short, the fight started "indirectly".

During this process, the vase was thrown out of the window and unfortunately hit Lu Chen.

Of course, Lu Chen was hit on purpose.

However, the man didn't know, so he apologized as sincerely as possible, for fear that Lu Chen would choose to call the police and make him stay in jail for a few more days.

Fortunately, Lu Chen didn't have this idea.

Although throwing objects from high places is indeed a hateful behavior, this person did not do it on purpose after all.

Besides, there weren't any serious consequences in the end, and I kind of asked for it, so I just wanted some compensation.

"Hey, brother, it's only because I reacted quickly, otherwise the vase would have hit my friend on the head."

Sighing, Lu Chen taught with a stern face:

"Be calm when you encounter something next time, don't be so impulsive."

"If it really hits someone, can you afford the consequences?"

"What's the point of regretting then?"

"I'm really not saying anything bad to you, but you're already so old, can't you think more about your family..."

Just like a teacher lecturing a student, Lu Chen's tone was quite serious, and he used the classic "elders educating younger generations" rhetoric.
