Back in the real world, Ningzhi slowly opened her eyes.
In the past, she had always treated it as a mission. She felt that Little Lu Joe was pitiful, cute, and full of novelty.
This time, she came back with a gloomy heart.
In the past, she had hoped that Little Lu Joe would remember her as his angel sister. Now, she hoped that he would not remember her and not count the days when they would meet.
It was very quiet at night.
Ningzhi turned to look at Lu Jue, whose eyes were tightly shut. Under the dim light, his features were distinct. The youthfulness between his eyebrows had faded, and his fringe was resting on his forehead. Just like Little Lu Joe, he looked obedient.
She scooted a little closer to him.
She reached out and secretly touched his hair. Ningzhi said gently, "Xiaojue, sweet dreams."
The next day, the sun shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the room. A breeze blew, and the light blue curtains swayed gently.
When Ningzhi woke up, Lu Jue had already gotten up and gone for a morning run. In all this time, she had never seen Lu Jue laze in bed or sleep in. His biological clock was more punctual than an alarm clock.
She struggled for a while before she lazily got up from the big bed.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Ningzhi opened the door. "Auntie Hua, what's the matter?"
Auntie Hua replied, "Madam asked me to call you downstairs."
Ningzhi was puzzled. "Did she say what it was about?"
Auntie Hua said, "The specialist that Eldest Young Master hired for Second Young Master is here. Madam wants you to accompany him to the hospital."
Ningzhi had heard from Lu Changshen that he had found a doctor for Lu Jue.
After experiencing several incidents where Lu Changshen had targeted Lu Jue when they were young, Ningzhi now maintained a skeptical attitude towards Lu Changshen's image of loving Lu Jue as a younger brother.
Perhaps it was because he was jealous of the adults when he was young, or perhaps it was because he hated Lu Jue's pranks. After he grew up, he matured and became a good older brother who took care of his younger brother.
However, Ningzhi was more inclined to believe that Lu Changshen did not suddenly realize that he was a good brother. He was just deceiving everyone and putting on an act.
"Okay, I got it." Ningzhi also wanted to know how Lu Jue was doing.
Ningzhi changed into a nude pink dress. Her skin was a lot whiter now, so it was very suitable for her to wear such a sweet color.
She went downstairs and saw that Mother Lu, Lu Changshen, and Lin Tien-tien were all there. Father Lu should have gone to the company.
Mother Lu's breathing was very good today. She said to Ningzhi, "You're downstairs. After breakfast, we'll take Xiaojue to the hospital together. The doctor is already waiting."
Then, Mother Lu said, "Xiaojue is very against the hospital. Help persuade him." Now, he only listened to Ningzhi.
Ningzhi nodded.
Her gaze inadvertently swept across Lin Tien-tien, who was sitting opposite her. She was surprised to find that there was a blister on the other party's mouth. Her eyes were slightly green, as if she did not rest well.
Yes, compared to when her halo was full, Lin Tien-tien was now only missing 20% of her halo. She was already in a sorry state.
Ningzhi felt that if Lin Tien-tien was beaten back to her original state, she would probably go crazy. She wanted to see.
Lin Tien-tien was really anxious these two days. She had taken the necklace to be repaired before, and the small crack on the jade had been repaired. There were no traces of the previous crack.
However, she found that even if the jade was repaired, she still had no way to take back the halo from Ningzhi's body.
Looking at Ningzhi in front of her, whose skin had become better and whose facial features had become more three-dimensional, Lin Tien-tien felt that it was an eyesore. At the same time, she felt faintly uneasy.
Why did a small crack appear on her jade? Why couldn't she take back the halo after it was returned to Ningzhi's body?
Ningzhi did not care that Lin Tien-tien was secretly looking at her. She was also not worried that Lin Tien-tien would know that she took back the halo. As a thief, how could she shamelessly ask the owner why she took back what she stole?
At this time, Lu Jue came back from his morning run.
