As if reminded, the man's icy fingertips circled again, "What do you need the money for?"
"My mother's surgery costs."
Lu Zhanbei did not make a sound but continued what he was doing.
Somehow, his silence felt even more terrifying. Gu Qianqian felt the need to explain further, "The doctor said, if she doesn't have the surgery, she might not make it. But the procedure is very expensive..."
At this point, her bright eyes darkened, "I...I don't have any money!"
"I'll lend you."
At his words, Gu Qianqian quickly sat up and looked at him excitedly, "Really? Really?"
"She is your mother,"
Gu Qianqian: "..."
At that moment, Lu Zhanbei's image grew increasingly glowing in Gu Qianqian's eyes. She looked at him with utmost reverence, as if he were her savior. She was so excited that she couldn't speak for a while.
Ignoring the admiration burning in her eyes, he raised his brows in his typical style and ordered, "Turn around and lie down properly..."
"Oh!"
