Chapter 47: Tricky

As He Youran examined him, she asked some professional questions, which Lu Qingzhuo answered one by one.

After all, he wanted to stand up more than anyone else.

Even if he couldn’t continue the Lu family’s name, as long as he could stand up again, it would be a deterrent to others.

“Mr. Lu, do you mind trying to stand for a while? I’d like to take a closer look.”

He Youran was still half-squatting as she raised her head to look at Lu Qingzhuo.

Under the moonlight, her skin was like delicate white porcelain, exuding a cold white glow. Her cold facial features made her look even more beautiful than an ordinary person.

It was said that the more you looked at a beauty under the moon, the more beautiful she became. This saying was indeed true.

Looking at her like this, even Lu Qingzhuo, who was used to seeing beautiful women, couldn’t help but be mesmerized.

In particular, her eyes were moist, and her black eyes did not carry the same aloofness and aloofness as when she faced others. The way she raised her head to ask him was a mix of caution and a hint of imperceptible gentleness. That kind of special treatment that was different from other people, it made Lu Qingzhuo’s heart flutter even more.

He clearly hated it when others talked about his legs and his hidden illness, but at this moment, he did not have any unhappiness in his heart.

“Okay.”

He nodded and used his arms to lift his body with great effort.

He Youran saw that he was struggling and quickly went forward to help him up.

“Mr. Lu, can you describe how your legs feel right now?” He Youran asked.

“I can’t feel strength.”

Lu Qingzhuo felt a little helpless.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t tried to walk all these years, but his normal-looking legs always disappointed him. He could only spend more time relying on massages and other methods so that his leg muscles wouldn’t atrophy and deform after sitting for a long time.

“May I ask if your legs had any symptoms before you could walk?”

“No.”

“Did you suddenly become like this?”

“Yes,” Lu Qingzhuo muttered. “I should say that I suddenly became like this one day five years ago, but I lost the memory of that day.”

He Youran looked at him in surprise and carefully cooperated with Lu Qingzhuo’s movements to make him return to his wheelchair.

“You were plotted against?”

Other than that, He Youran couldn’t think of any other reason.

But, how was that possible?

As far as she knew, the Lu family of imperial capital was a true aristocratic family. As the future leader of the Lu family, Lu Qingzhuo’s personal safety was of utmost importance. Yet, he was actually plotted against without him even realizing it and suffered such a heavy blow.

“Mm…” Lu Qingzhuo was a little embarrassed.

Actually, he was also careless.

He was too confident in his own skills. After entering the old pharmaceutical factory, in order to save time, he ordered Pang Zhong and the other bodyguards to split up and search. That was why he was alone.

But, he didn’t plan to tell He Youran about this.

The enemy in the shadows was still unknown. If He Youran knew too much rashly, it would pull her into a dangerous situation.

However, he couldn’t hide it from He Youran completely.

He could feel that He Youran really wanted to cure him.

So, Lu Qingzhuo thought for a moment and added,

“I suspect that I’ve been injected with something.”

He Youran’s expression froze when she heard this.

“Then I’ll need professional equipment to do a detailed examination for you.”

Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly thought of something and glanced at Lu Qingzhuo.

That wasn’t right. With the Lu family’s financial resources, they probably did a thorough check-up on Lu Qingzhuo when he was in doubt? Five years, five whole years, yet Lu Qingzhuo still didn’t improve. This proved that the Lu family couldn’t do anything about Lu Qingzhuo’s condition.

Oh no, this was really troublesome.

He Youran really had a headache this time.

It seemed like it wasn’t going to be that easy to help Lu Qingzhuo.
