Chapter 413 Lu Zhijin Seriously Injured
Chapter 413 Lu Zhijin Seriously Injured
Just as Xiao Siyue was getting anxious, Xiao Siyu returned.
However, his gaze towards Xiao Siyue was somewhat evasive.
"Brother, you're back. Did Ajin go to the palace to express his gratitude?"
"That, Yue'er... Zhi Jin, he..."
"How is he? Brother, tell me quickly, what happened to him?" Xiao Siyue suddenly felt unsteady on her feet, her whole body turning ice-cold. Ah Jin, could he be...?
Xiao Siyu quickly supported Xiao Siyue's arm: "Yue'er, don't worry, Zhi Jin is still alive, but he was seriously injured and is still unconscious."
"Brother, is Ajin really still alive?" Xiao Siyue stared intently at Xiao Siyu.
"Yes, she's alive and has been sent back to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion." Xiao Siyu nodded hurriedly. He hadn't expected his sister and Lu Zhijin's feelings to be so deep. He prayed that Lu Zhijin would wake up soon, otherwise he didn't know what his sister might do.
"Yue'er, where are you going?" Xiao Siyu saw Xiao Siyue stumbling and trying to leave, so he quickly grabbed her.
"Brother, I want to see Ajin." She wanted to see Lu Zhijin right now and didn't want to wait a moment longer.
"Yue'er, what identity do you intend to use? Don't you want your reputation?" Only he knew about Lu Zhijin and Xiao Siyue's affair. If Xiao Siyue went to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion so rashly, who knows what rumors would spread outside.
"Brother, I want to go see Ah Jin and see how badly he's injured." Xiao Siyue knew that he didn't care about his own reputation, but he couldn't ignore the reputation of the Xiao family.
"Yue'er, don't worry, your brother will take you there in a bit." He and Lu Zhijin were friends, and he brought Xiao Siyue along in his name.
"Yes, thank you, brother." Lin Qin found out about what happened to Xiao Siyue and was worried, thinking that Xiao Siyu had bullied Xiao Siyue.
"Yue'er, why are you crying? Did your brother bully you? Tell your father and mother, and we'll teach him a lesson." Lin Qin saw her daughter's red and swollen eyes and lovingly pulled Xiao Siyue into her arms.
"Waaah... Mother." Xiao Siyue cried sadly, tears streaming down her face.
"Mother." Xiao Siyu was also helpless. How did it become that he was bullying his sister? What was he doing? And what was with his father's look?
"Yue'er cried because of Lu Zhijin."
"Zhi Jin, what does this have to do with Zhi Jin?" Lin Qin didn't react for a moment, but Xiao Qinian did.
I knew beforehand that Lu Zhijin had ulterior motives, but I never expected him to actually kidnap my daughter.
But that's not something to think about right now.
"Mother, your daughter, my sister, is in love with Lu Zhijin. Now that Lu Zhijin is seriously injured and in a coma, Yue'er is heartbroken."
"Huh? Yue'er." Lin Qin looked at her daughter in her arms in disbelief.
Yue'er had someone she liked, but she didn't even know when it happened.
"Alright, Mother, don't worry about it. I'll take Yue'er to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion. She won't feel at ease unless she sees it for herself." Xiao Siyu looked at Xiao Siyue's trembling body and pulled her out of Lin Qin's arms.
"Alright, stop crying. I'll take you there now. Otherwise, how can you face the people from the Duke's Mansion looking like this?" Xiao Siyu said gently.
"Mmm." Xiao Siyue nodded, trying to hold back her tears.
"Lan Yi, help your young lady wash up and change her clothes," Xiao Siyu instructed Lan Yi.
Then he looked at Xiao Siyue and said, "Go wash up first, I'll go prepare some gifts." When visiting a patient, it's natural to prepare gifts; otherwise, how can you make a proper visit?
It wasn't until the two of them had left that Lin Qin realized what was happening, and looked at Xiao Qinian with a blank expression.
"Does Yue'er have someone she likes?"
"Yes, sigh, my little darling is about to belong to someone else." Xiao Qinian sighed.
"Master, are you saying that Yue'er's sweetheart is Lu Zhijin, the young General Lu?"
"Yes, it's that young General Lu. But now he's already a second-rank official." Xiao Qinian thought of Lu Zhijin and had to admit that he was indeed outstanding. At such a young age, he had already achieved a high rank, probably the first person in a hundred years.
Lin Qin frowned, looking conflicted.
"Madam, what's wrong? Are you dissatisfied?"
"That's not it. Everyone knows how outstanding Lu Zhijin is, and we can't help but praise him. But I just heard you say that he was seriously wounded on the battlefield and is unconscious? How serious is the injury? Will he ever wake up?" Lin Qin whispered. What if the injury is severe and he never wakes up again? What will happen to her daughter then?
Judging from his daughter's expression, he knew she was deeply in love and didn't want her to be sad.
That's true. He knew some of it too. As for how serious the injury was, he guessed it must be very serious, otherwise he wouldn't have been unconscious for so many days.
However, Lu Zhijin is a great hero this time, and His Majesty will not let him remain unconscious like this indefinitely.
“Madam, you don’t need to worry. Yue’er can see things clearly on her own. I’m not happy that Lu Zhijin took my daughter away, but I have to admit that in the capital, this boy is the only one who is good enough for Yue’er.”
"Is that what I meant? I'm mainly worried that if that Lu family kid gets hurt too badly, will Yue'er be heartbroken?"
"You don't need to worry about that at all. If things go well, whether those two children can get together in the future depends on them. If things don't go well, Yue'er is still young. She can find someone else in a few years if she forgets about it." Xiao Qinian didn't seem to care much about this.
Lin Qin glared at Xiao Qinian; men and women just think differently.
She was still somewhat worried, but there was nothing she could do. She could only hope that the young man from the Lu family would wake up soon.
Xiao Siyue changed her clothes again, and then Lan Yi did some makeup for her, mainly because her eyes were a little swollen from crying. Looking at herself in the mirror, Xiao Siyue suddenly realized that she seemed a little different from her former self. Love really does make people sentimental.
Xiao Siyu also prepared gifts, all of which were precious tonics, very suitable for the patient.
"Yue'er, you're all better now, let's go. Remember, don't cry anymore, okay?"
"Yes, brother, don't worry." Xiao Siyue nodded. She had only heard that Lu Zhijin was seriously injured, and with her mother's comfort, she couldn't hold back for a moment. But she had already composed herself by now.
"That's good." Xiao Siyu was relieved. She was also thinking about her sister. If Lu Zhijin never woke up, and so many people knew that Yue'er was in love with Lu Zhijin, people would probably care if she wanted to find a good husband in the future.
Although this might seem a bit unfair to Lu Zhijin, his sister's place in his heart will never be comparable to that of his good brothers.
