Lu Zhao did not have to wait long in the hospital before a call came from the Lu family.
Lu Zhao had called off the engagement and accused Old Master Lu of tax evasion. The commotion was so significant that the Lu family was in complete disarray. They were desperate for him to return and handle the situation.
"Will you be okay on your own?" Luo Ying was concerned.
Luo Ying had initially planned to accompany Lu Zhao to the Lu family's old residence, but he had refused.
Lu Zhao had already anticipated such chaos. There was no need for Luo Ying to endure that with him.
"I'll be fine," Lu Zhao reassured her and kissed her forehead affectionately. "Don't worry, just wait for me to come home."
Worry clouded Luo Ying's face as she nodded. Lu Zhao's power struggle within the Lu family was progressing much faster than in the original novel. She couldn't predict what would happen, but she chose to trust him.
