Chapter 72 - 72 What His Motive Is
72 What His Motive Is
She actually felt a tinge of happiness amidst the pain.
When Lu Ning ran over, she was still wearing her café uniform and cap.
Shen Yunci was sitting on the bed in a hospital gown, her arm suspended from her neck.
Lu Qing and Lu Jingzhi were both there.
Lu Zhi was feeding Shen Yunci some fruit, but Shen Yunci pushed him away.
“Mom.”
Lu Ning opened the door and entered. When Shen Yunci saw her, she immediately changed her expression and beamed at her. “Ning’ning, you’re here.”
Lu Ning quickly walked over to take a look at her.
“Mom…”
Shen Yunci’s face was pale, and her forehead was beaded with perspiration. She was probably in pain.
Lu Ning bit her lower lip as her eyes reddened.
Seeing her like this, Shen Yunci hurriedly added, “Mom’s fine. It doesn’t hurt anymore.”
As she spoke, she even wanted to move her fractured arm, but Lu Ning stopped her.
Lu Ning leaned over and gently pressed her head against Shen Yunci’s shoulder on her unhurt side.
Her voice sounded a little nasal.
“Mom, don’t work there anymore.”
She can earn money! She can earn lots of money in the future to support everyone.
Lu Ning held her uninjured arm and leaned her head on her shoulder. This was the first time her daughter was so close to her; Shen Yunci was so overjoyed that she agreed in a heartbeat.
She even called out to Lu Zhi and gestured for him to snap a photo of them.
She wanted to record this warm moment when mother and daughter embraced each other for the first time.
Lu Zhi looked at her and smiled helplessly. He took out his phone and took a photo.
Lu Qing and Lu Jingzhi could not help but think back to their mother who had been sobbing before Lu Ning came.

Huo Jinyan was still downstairs by the hospital’s lobby. When Lu Ning came down, she immediately spotted him.
“Huo Jinyan.”
Huo Jinyan looked up at her. Under the warm yellow streetlights, his demeanor seemed to have softened a little.
Lu Ning walked closer and quickly corrected herself. “Teacher Huo.”
Seeing that her eyes were a little red, Huo Jinyan asked, “Is her condition not good?”
Lu Ning subconsciously brought her hand up to veil her eyes. “She’s alright, the doctor said it’s not too serious. She needs to recuperate.”
Huo Jinyan nodded.
“Thank you, Teacher Huo.”
As soon as Lu Ning spoke, she suddenly realized that she had been constantly expressing her grat.i.tude to Huo Jinyan.
Huo Jinyan looked at her face and pointed at her forehead. “What about you?”
Lu Ning was surprised. “Me? Ah, I’m almost fully recovered.”
Huo Jinyan looked at her while Lu Ning stared at him.
The two of them went silent for a moment.
“…”
Lu Ning felt that it was not too nice to chase him away, but it was not nice either to leave him standing there like a fool. Why don’t I… treat him to a meal?
Before she could figure out whether to invite him or not, a voice suddenly came from behind.
“Ning’ning.”
Lu Ning turned around. “Dad.”
When Lu Zhi saw Huo Jinyan, he quickly walked over. “Teacher Huo? Did you send Ning’ning here?”
Before Huo Jinyan could nod, Lu Zhi walked over and held his hand. “Thank you!”
Huo Jinyan looked at his hand that was being held and scowled slightly, but he still remained polite and did not recklessly shake it off.
“No worries. I’ll get going first.”
Lu Zhi let go of his hand. “Huh? Why don’t I treat you to a meal?”
“It’s fine.”
Huo Jinyan had already gotten into his car and started the engine; he stepped on the accelerator and hastily left.
Lu Ning pursed her lips and held back a chuckle.
Lu Zhi turned to look at her. “Ning’ning, go back and accompany your mother. I’ll go get some porridge.”
Lu Ning nodded. “Dad, be careful.”
She turned around and walked off. Only when she could no longer be seen did someone emerge from the shadows.
“Brother Lu.”
Lu Zhi’s expression turned grim. “Investigate what he’s here for—the scion of the Huo family, coming here to be a teacher and appearing frequently by my daughter’s side? Let’s find out what his motive is.”
“Understood!”
