Chapter 4 - Confrontation

Lu Qi leaned against the hospital bed. She narrowed her eyes and sized up the man who had barged in recklessly.

Lu Han's expression changed slightly. He used his eyes to signal his assistant to chase away the doctors and nurses who were eavesdropping in the corridor.

Then, he furrowed his brows and said, "Lu Wei, control yourself. Qiqi has been traumatized, and her body is still very weak. Don't scare her. We can talk outside!"

Lu Wei revealed a disdainful look. "Last night, Lu Qi fainted outside the villa with her clothes in a mess. She has completely embarrassed our family!"

"There are already rumors about the Lu Corporation. You'd better stay at home with your precious daughter. Don't let her affect the company again."

"For Lu Qi to do such a shameful thing is simply a disgrace to the Lu family. You definitely can't be the CEO of the Lu Corporation anymore. Otherwise, how will our family face the skeptical shareholders? How will we face the partners who believe in the Lu Corporation?"

A greedy glint flashed across Lu Wei's eyes as he forced Lu Han to give up the management rights.

The atmosphere in the ward was solemn and quiet. Xie Jiao held Lu Qi's hand tightly, trying to make her feel at ease.

Lu Qi sorted out the memories of the original owner of the body.

This Lu Wei was Lu Han's younger brother, but he didn't have good intentions. He always wanted to snatch the position of CEO from Lu Han.

Lu Qi stared at Lu Wei with a cold smile before she said sarcastically with a faint smile, "So, you aren't here to visit me, uncle?"

"How can the management rights of the Lu Corporation be related to my private life?"

"You pay so much attention to my actions and find some random reason to snatch the management rights of the company from my father. If this gets out, I'm afraid that others will misunderstand that you've been plotting this for a long time!"

Lu Wei's pupils shook wildly. Lu Qi's personality had always been timid and docile. How could she suddenly be so strong?

Lu Han also looked at Lu Qi in surprise. "Qi Qi is right. The board of directors will make the decision..."

Bang-

The door was pushed open again. Lu Nuannuan barged in with an arrogant expression while raising her chin.

She looked at the woman on the bed and said with disdain, "Lu Qi, how can you have the face to continue staying in the Lu Family?"

"I met a doctor outside and he showed me your test report. You're no longer a virgin!"

Lu Nuannuan deliberately emphasized her words to Lu Han. "I advise you to do some tests as soon as possible. Who knows whether those wild men outside have STIs or not?"

Lu Nuannuan's words were like a bolt of lightning, shocking everyone in the ward to the point of speechlessness.

Xie Jiao stood up abruptly. Her usual gentle temperament was gone as she rushed to Lu Nuannuan, pointing at her nose. With an agitated expression, she defended Lu Qi and shouted, "Watch your mouth!"

"How could Qiqi do... that kind of thing? Who's talking nonsense and slandering my daughter!"

Lu Qi saw Xie Jiao and Lu Nuannuan's back view as they quarreled and she felt a surge of warmth in her heart when she heard them defending her.

It was her first time experiencing the warmth of family and the protection of her parents. Lu Qi's eyes sparkled as she grabbed Xie Jiao's wrist and gently shook her head, gesturing for her to calm down, "Doctors need to keep the patient's privacy a secret. They are not allowed to divulge the patient's condition to non-immediate family members."

"We can call the doctor you mentioned to confront him, let's not talk about whether his diagnosis is accurate."

"I can already sue him for revealing confidential information!"

Lu Nuannuan and Lu Wei looked at each other. The two of them had not thought of this.

The knocking on the door interrupted everyone's argument and confrontation.

Lu Han tidied his clothes and opened the door. His eyes slowly widened as he stared at the visitor.

"Mr. Mo? Why, why are you here?"

Lu Han asked with a complicated expression.

Standing outside the door was the young master of the Mo family, Mo Chen, who had gone abroad a few years ago. He was the man who had rejected Lu Qi's engagement.

The housekeeper, who was standing beside Mo Chen, bowed slightly. "Hello, Mr. Lu. Mr. Mo is here because he has something important to discuss with you."

The housekeeper had heard their conversation just now, so he deliberately treated Lu Wei as an assistant and stuffed the fruit basket into his hands as a way of supporting Lu Qi. Lu Wei was secretly angry but did not dare to flare up. He threw it on the ground and looked at Mo Chen in confusion.

Mo Chen's deep eyes stared at Lu Qi. Seeing the confusion and vigilance in her eyes, he gently curved the corners of his lips.

It seemed that she did not remember what happened last night, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Lu Wei recognized Mo Chen and wanted to suck up and make connections with him.

Mo Chen did not pay attention to him. Instead, he turned to Lu Han with an indifferent expression and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm here to visit you."

"Of course, I also want to discuss the wedding preparations with you. Lu Qi is already 20 years old. The engagement between the Mo family and the Lu family can proceed according to the agreement. If you have any requests for the wedding, the Mo family will try our best to fulfill them..."
