Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

He's really precocious for his age; he's actually starting to care about her love life.

Lu Luozhi smiled.

"I like it."

She was also coy, but she naturally and generously admitted it to him.

"How could I not like such a good man?"

This is her own younger brother, and she doesn't think there's anything wrong with acknowledging it.

In the guesthouse room, Lu Luozhi sat cross-legged on the bed talking to him on the phone.

"Every woman would like it."

"Are you very angry now?"

She heard Lu Ming pat his chest, "Big sister, just say the word and I'll immediately beat Ying Yuchuan into a pulp."

He wasn't just saying he was coming to play around; he was serious.

Lu Luozhi laughed again, "Alright, stop acting tough. Your injury has just healed. What if you hurt your brain again and become even more stupid? Do you really expect me to work for you for the rest of my life? I'd rather you work to support me."

She was teasing him on purpose, but Lu Mingshi took it seriously.

"What's so great about that? If you just say the word, sis, I'll rob a bank for you. Anyway, if anyone dares to treat my sister badly, I'll fight them to the death!"

Eighteen years old is the age of youthful vigor and ambition.

All his courage was for his beloved sister.

"That woman is such a hypocrite. After all these years, she suddenly pops up again, talking about youthful love. Ugh, it makes me sick. So pretentious... Sister..."

As he spoke, he suddenly called out again in a serious tone.

"Hmm, what for?"

Lu Luozhi felt a little sleepy and yawned.

"Your happiness and well-being are the most important things. Money doesn't matter. I support whatever decision you want to make. At worst, we can just go back to the village. There's nothing good about staying in this city. I've had enough of it."

Look at her younger brother, how wonderful he is, always thinking of her.

Having finally climbed onto the wealthy and powerful Ying family, he showed no attachment whatsoever, putting her first in everything.

She laughed and said, "Okay, okay, I know. Why are you talking so seriously, you little brat? It's not like the sky is falling. You should go back to your studies and don't worry about me. I'll handle it myself."

"When are you coming back, sis?"

Before she could answer Lu Mingshi's question, she heard him walking around.

"It seems my brother-in-law is back, sis. I'll talk to you later, I'm going to eavesdrop in the stairwell."

there.

When Lu Ming heard Ying Yuchuan return, he tiptoed down the stairs and hid in the corner between the second and third floors, listening to the conversation coming from the living room.

He did not hang up the phone.

Because his older sister said she wanted to hear it too.

downstairs.

As soon as Ying Yuchuan, who looked exhausted, entered the house, his parents came to greet him.

One person took his luggage, while the other looked at his face with concern.

"Yuchuan, why don't we call a doctor to take a look at you? Your face looks strangely pale."

Sheng Shuang helped him to sit down on the sofa.

Having already been running a fever, and now after a long and tiring journey by car, Ying Yuchuan's physical fatigue had reached its peak.

After sitting down on the sofa, he rubbed his aching and throbbing temples and let out a long sigh.

"Mom and Dad, why aren't you resting yet?"

"How can we possibly get any rest?"

Sheng Shuang said worriedly, "You're so sick, and Luo Zhi has disappeared without a trace. Sigh... Yu Chuan, you said she doesn't have many friends here, where could she have gone?"

Although she doesn't have many friends here, don't doubt her ability to survive in society.

Her legs are amazing; she can run so fast that she can support herself just by selling things at a stall.

"And when the deer cry out?"

He asked in a hoarse voice.

Huang Maozi is currently the only one who might know the whereabouts of Lu Luozhi.

"They've been here the whole time, but I saw it was getting late, so I let them go back to their rooms to sleep."

"Okay, I'll go ask him."

Ying Yuchuan stood up as he spoke.

In the stairwell, Lu Mingshi heard his footsteps approaching. He crouched down and tiptoed upstairs to return to his room.

I don't want them to find out I'm eavesdropping here.

But he seemed to have underestimated his brother-in-law's keen insight.

"When the deer cry out, don't leave. I know you're eavesdropping up there."

"..."

Depend on.

What was Ying Yuchuan reincarnated as in his previous life that gave him such sharp ears?

Lu Ming pursed his lips and stopped walking.

At this moment, Ying Yuchuan also climbed the stairs to his place, with Ying Huayu and his wife following behind him.

Despite his illness, Ying Yuchuan's gaze remained sharp as he looked him up and down.

At that moment, Lu Ming belatedly realized that he was still on the phone with his older sister.

Without making a sound, he hid his phone behind his back and secretly pressed the hang-up button.

Ying Yuchuan noticed his actions.

"Are you talking to your sister on the phone?"

"no."

He denied it when the deer cried out.

"My sister hasn't contacted me. Her phone is off, as you know."

Ying Yuchuan's deep gaze fixed on him once again.

As expected of Huang Maozi, even though he no longer has yellow hair, he is not afraid of him at all.

Lu Ming met his gaze fearlessly, his chin slightly raised, his expression somewhat unruly.

"Also, I know about what you did online. I'll put up with you for now, but I'll settle the score with you slowly when my sister gets back..."

"When the deer cry out!"

Ying Yuchuan said in a calm voice, "This is not the time for jokes. Do you even know where your sister is? Has she texted you?"

"If you knew, you would have told me. I would have gone to find her and brought her back. It's not safe for her to be out there alone. I know I was wrong, but now is not the time to talk about these things..."

Lu Mingshi initially wanted to remain silent, not wanting to easily reveal information about his older sister to him.

Why did he bring up this "first love" thing?

However, seeing how seriously ill he was, how pale he was, yet he was still worried about his older sister's whereabouts, he felt a pang of pity.

He didn't understand anything about romantic relationships, but he did understand that he didn't want his older sister to miss out on her happiness so easily.

If it really is a misunderstanding, then why not just clarify it, right?

He opened his mouth, feeling hesitant and conflicted, while Ying Yuchuan and Ying Huayu looked at him expectantly.

They hoped he could offer them some comforting news.

Finally, Lu Mingshi nodded and hummed in agreement.

"Yes, she did send me a message before."

Ying Yuchuan was overjoyed. He grabbed one of his arms and asked anxiously.

"Where is she now? Tell me quickly, I'm going to find her."

"My sister didn't tell me where she is, and she said she doesn't want to see you, brother-in-law, for the time being; she wants to be alone."

He looked at him accusingly, "Brother-in-law, I rarely do this, but you've really hurt her this time."

"Besides, do you know why she left so early this morning? She went to Shenzhen to find you, but what happened in the meantime, only she probably knows."

Did she go to find him?

Upon hearing the news, Ying Yuchuan felt dizzy. He stared at him in disbelief, as if in a daze, unable to believe what he was saying.

Did Lu Luozhi go to find him?

Panic engulfed my entire body in an instant.

Could it be that she saw Li Wan?

This guess came to his mind.

He then recalled what Yuan Yiwei had told him about Li Wan appearing in his room.

Ying Yuchuan's already pale face became even more frail, and he swayed unsteadily.

"Yuchuan?"

Ying Huayu quickly helped him up.

"Let's go back to our room first."

He said he wanted to help him back to his room to lie down before continuing.

A slight pain rose in his chest, and Ying Yuchuan tried his best to remain calm and rational.

But no, the thought of Lu Luozhi traveling all the way to find him, only to find Li Wan in his room...

Suddenly, everything went black. Ying Yuchuan closed his eyes, and as he tried to force them open, a dizzying sensation swept over him...

"Yuchuan".

"son!"

Ying Huayu and his wife exclaimed in unison.

Ying Huayu caught Ying Yuchuan just in time, as he was about to fall to the ground after fainting.

He quickly called to Sheng Shuang, "Go and tell the driver to bring the car out. We'll take him to the hospital."

Then he instructed, "Mingshi, quickly help me get him down."

For a moment, the entire villa was filled with an atmosphere of anxiety and unease.

Even Ying Sangrou, who was inside the room, heard the noise and came out of her room.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
