This chaotic situation persisted until late at night. Wen Sining stayed by the old master's side. As a "fool," no one would care if she did anything excessive.
Uncle Bai shed tears. Sure enough, the young mistress was sensible. How did there seem to be a new faint pink scar on the young mistress's face? Was this the result of the divine doctor's treatment?
Wen Sining lifted her face innocently. Beneath her bright smile, there was a hint of melancholy. She held the old master's hand and asked worriedly,
"Uncle Butler, will Grandpa get better? He looks so uncomfortable."
Lu Luochen didn't let her know about the old master's condition. When the doctor was examining the old master, he locked her upstairs and only had someone let her down for meals.
Wen Sining felt resentful. The little affection she had once felt in the divine doctor's village had long since faded.
A man who, for the sake of his mistress, caused the old master to have a stroke and then accompanied his mistress when the old master needed him most didn't deserve her at all.
Mo Xin's turmoil ended due to the old master's one - sided support. People led by Xiao Zhan came one after another to sign contracts. After all, it was a company guaranteed by the old master Lu.
But Wen Sining had no intention of promoting it well. She handed all her work to her business partners.
"Don't worry. You should take good care of the old master. He is really good to you."
Only then did Wen Sining appear in the villa. Looking at the unconscious man on the ventilator, she couldn't help feeling sad.
"The old master's health is not good. The young mistress knows that. Maybe the old master will be sent abroad for treatment in a while. If the young mistress misses the old master, she can go with him."
Uncle Bai didn't tell Lu Luochen about the plan to go abroad for recuperation. Now that he was telling her on his own initiative, Wen Sining could probably understand.
Compared with a man who only defied the old master and brought bad news, she was more suitable to stay by the old master's side to take care of him.
"Okay. Sining will definitely take good care of Grandpa."
It was a dreamless night, and few people could sleep.
Mo Xin received positive reviews. It was one - sided. Many artists and models who had cooperated with it before came out to make statements. Among them were some very influential people. Xiao Zhan even asked many people for help.
The reputation of the Lu Group was damaged. The name Amanda was no longer the symbol of the national goddess but more like a femme fatale.
Lu Luochen's authority in the company was also taken back. However, the five companies he founded were still thriving under the protection of the Lu Group.
Yun Chutong was lying in the hotel. She didn't have the face to go to the hospital. When she went to change the dressing before, the doctors looked at her as if she were a rat crossing the street.
Lu Luochen had a stubbly beard. He had gone to the old mansion several times but was always driven out. Only the laughter of the "fool" and the old master could be heard from the room.
"Luochen, hasn't Grandpa forgiven you yet?"
Yun Chutong looked at him affectionately, poured him a cup of tea attentively, and stroked his back.
Lu Luochen felt like a complete failure. He had lost his grandpa and the ability to give Chutong a good life.
His blood - shot eyes were extremely scary, but he still had five listed companies under his control, and everything was going smoothly.
"Chutong, don't worry. I'll solve those problems outside soon."
But how exactly should he solve them? The problems on the surface had been solved, but how could he suppress the public opinion underground?
Filial piety comes first among all virtues. Even if the reporters didn't spread the news, those who should know already did.
Yun Chutong's expression darkened. Her sharp nails touched the bandaged palm. All her nails broke, and blood flowed.
In her heart, Lu Luochen was already a useless man. Since he couldn't give her a comfortable life, there was no need to waste time pleasing him.
"It's only natural. You fell out with Grandpa for me. From now on, we'll depend on each other. We'll figure out a way for the company, but we have to survive, right?"
Those gentle eyes still belonged to the same person. Yun Chutong was such a kind - hearted girl. How could she deliberately hurt herself? That video must have been synthesized.
Lu Luochen clenched his fists tightly, thinking that he must convict Sister Fang later and not let her harm Yun Chutong anymore.
During their tender moment, Yun Chutong suddenly pushed him away. Lu Luochen's hurt eyes fell into hers, but she seemed not to care at all.
"I... I'm still injured. Luochen, don't do this."
When Yun Chutong said such words at this moment, any man would think it was a rejection.
Who was Lu Luochen? His mind was full of Yun Chutong. He never thought that she didn't want to. Instead, he blamed himself.
"I'm sorry. I didn't consider your injury." If Lu Luochen were normal - minded, he would surely be a very considerate husband.
Lu Luochen wasn't exactly down and out. He was still at the top of the business world and highly respected.
Wen Sining didn't want to deal with this man anymore. A man who didn't even want to take care of his own grandpa couldn't amount to much.
The sun was shining brightly. Wen Sining wanted to push Grandpa to the garden to soak up the sun.
The old master had already woken up. At this moment, some unexpected guests arrived.
Jiang Ruanqing had also heard about the Lu family's affairs. Lu Luochen was no longer valuable. It seemed that the old master was going to train a new heir.
If they didn't take this opportunity to make a profit, when Lu Luochen became worthless, what would Wen Sining be as a granddaughter - in - law?
"So it's the young mistress's family. Please wait here."
During this period, Uncle Bai had a great change in his opinion of Wen Sining, and his dislike for the Wen family deepened.
Wen Sining was sitting under the shade of a tree, making a flower crown. This was what she liked to do most when she was a child. Her mother always said that the flower crowns Sining made were the most beautiful.
"Grandpa, here's the flower for you. I hope you'll get better soon."
Her beautiful little face looked even fairer in the sun. The old master couldn't understand why Lu Luochen didn't like Wen Sining.
"Young mistress, your family is here."
Uncle Bai saw that the old master seemed to want to refuse. But Wen Sining smiled cutely, showing her little white teeth.
Humph, it was time to put on a show.
She pleaded with the old master, "Grandpa, let them in. I want to know what they're here for."
Wen Sining poked her own hand and said listlessly, "I hope cousin doesn't ask me to wash the dishes. Sining doesn't want to wash the dishes and clean for them anymore."
As soon as Jiang Ruanqing entered the door, she felt a solemn gaze on her.
Wasn't the old master paralyzed? Why was he sitting here? Like this, how could she order the "fool" to steal money from the Lu family?
