Chapter 459 - 458: Going to the Sanatorium to See Lu Yunzhou

He Wanru decided she was going to use the supplementary card Fu Ze had left with her today, and she wouldn’t stop until she maxed it out!

Qin Sitong went back to her dorm, while Fu Ze resignedly took He Wanru to the mall.

"Which mall would you like to go to?"

There were many malls in Dijing, but the one with the most foot traffic and the best selection was Jinsheng Mall, which was under the Lu Group.

"Jinsheng Mall."

As expected, Fu Ze had already guessed what He Wanru’s answer would be.

Fu Ze nodded, then turned to the driver. "Uncle Liu, let’s go."

The black Maybach slowly pulled away from the women’s dormitory. Fu Ze took out his phone and messaged his assistant, telling him to find someone to drive his Ferrari LaFerrari, which he had just parked at Dijing University, to the entrance of Jinsheng Mall.

A little over half an hour later, the black Maybach stopped at the entrance of Jinsheng Mall.

"We’re here. I have things to take care of at the company, so I can’t go shopping with you. Everything you buy today is on me. Spend as much as you like."

With that, Fu Ze got out of the car.

At the same time, Fu Ze’s assistant promptly drove his LaFerrari to the entrance of Jinsheng Mall.

"Fu Ze!"

He Wanru got out of the car, fuming. ’He really forgot his own mother the moment he got a wife! When has he ever neglected me, his own mother, like this?’

Fu Ze stopped and turned to He Wanru. "Mom, a whole group of people are waiting for me for a meeting. Do you have any idea how much money your son lost out on because of this sudden little trip of yours today?"

’If I don’t say something, people will think being a CEO is easy.’

"Go on, get out of here! You’re an eyesore!"

He Wanru waved her hand dismissively, telling Fu Ze to leave. Then, she turned and called her friends to ask them to go shopping with her.

"Sir?"

Fu Ze’s assistant, Xiao Su, glanced at He Wanru’s back as she walked into Jinsheng Mall, a little unsure of what to do.

"Don’t worry about it. Once she’s done shopping and goes home, her anger will fade."

Fu Ze knew his own mother. He Wanru had a big temper, but it faded quickly.

And her insistence on matching social status was mostly due to what she and Mr. Fu had gone through back then.

He Wanru came from what could only be considered a moderately well-off family in Dijing. When she first married Mr. Fu, many people in their social circle looked down on her.

It was only after she successfully gave birth to Fu Ze, and then later Fu Yang, that she could finally hold her head high in front of the gossips.

Her background wasn’t good, but the sons she gave birth to would one day be the heirs to the Fu Family. In that respect, very few people in all of Dijing could compare.

Now, Fu Ze was already capable of holding his own, and his methods were even more decisive and efficient than Mr. Fu’s had been. Only then could He Wanru feel that her hardships had finally paid off.

And it was precisely because she had been looked down upon for her family background that He Wanru had requirements for the family status of Fu Ze’s and Fu Yang’s future partners.

She didn’t want anyone else to go through what she had. For a girl from an ordinary family, it was an incredibly difficult thing to endure.

Today, she had seen Qin Sitong, and she had to admit, Qin Sitong was luckier than she had been.

Because even though Qin Sitong came from a common background, she had a good best friend.

No one could yet accurately gauge Yun Zijin’s current status in Dijing’s upper-class circles.

The main reason was that Yun Zijin rarely involved herself in the business world, yet she owned a great deal of real estate.

While her family’s foundation might not compare to old-money families like the Lu Family and the Fu Family, her cash flow was definitely second to none.

There were even rumors that the amount of money deposited in Yun Zijin’s bank accounts had already exceeded ten billion.

Ten billion in savings and a market value of ten billion were two completely different concepts.

Someone with a company valued at ten billion wouldn’t necessarily have ten billion in their pocket, but someone with ten billion in savings definitely had a net worth of ten billion.

In any case, anyone who had met Yun Zijin now tried their best to be friendly when dealing with her.

They couldn’t guarantee they’d be able to befriend Yun Zijin, but they would at least try not to make an enemy of her.

He Wanru mulled this over as she walked into Jinsheng Mall and randomly picked a floor to browse.

Lu Group.

Yun Zijin had no idea that in He Wanru’s mind, she had already become someone that everyone in the upper-class circles tried their best to get on the good side of.

While Lu Yunque was in a meeting, Yun Zijin was still savoring the small cake his secretary had just brought in.

When she tasted something delicious, her eyes would instinctively narrow in pleasure, and she would take a couple more bites.

Yun Zijin waited in Lu Yunque’s office for about half an hour before he finally finished his meeting and returned.

As soon as Lu Yunque entered, he was hit with the sweet, cloying scent of cake in his office.

’It could only be Yun Zijin.’

After all, no one else would dare to eat cake so brazenly in his office, letting the smell drift everywhere.

"You’re back from your meeting? Do you have anything else? Let’s go get lunch, and then we can go to the sanatorium to see your older brother."

Since there was a chance Lu Yunzhou’s leg could get better, Yun Zijin wanted to act as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer they delayed, the harder it would be to cure.

"Nothing else. I’ll just look over a few urgent documents, and then we can go."

Lu Yunque walked over to Yun Zijin, bent down, and licked the cream from the corner of her mouth. Then, as if nothing had happened, he returned to his desk to handle the documents.

Caught off guard by the sneak attack, Yun Zijin froze for a moment. When she realized what Lu Yunque had done, her face turned as red as a cooked crayfish.

But when she looked up at Lu Yunque and saw his nonchalant expression, Yun Zijin grew exasperated.

’Someone is really... becoming more and more of a beast.’

Although Lu Yunque was looking at the documents, he was watching Yun Zijin’s reaction out of the corner of his eye. When he saw her shoot him an exasperated glare, a smile tugged at his lips, harder to suppress than an AK’s recoil.

’Sometimes, a little mischief has its own special charm, doesn’t it?’

Twenty minutes later, after finishing the urgent documents, Lu Yunque took Yun Zijin to a private kitchen near the Lu Group that specialized in Chinese cuisine. After their meal, they finally set off for the sanatorium.

＊

Lu’s Sanatorium.

Yun Zijin and Lu Yunque arrived at Lu Yunzhou’s room together. By the time they got there, Lu Yunzhou had already woken up from his afternoon nap.

A smile appeared on Lu Yunzhou’s face when he saw Yun Zijin and Lu Yunque.

"You’re here. I heard from Mom that you and a friend opened a milk tea shop, sister-in-law. It sounds pretty special. I wonder when I’ll have the honor of trying a cup."

Yun Zijin knew he must be referring to Wangyou Milk Tea.

The effect of Wangyou Milk Tea was to make people recall their happiest memories and briefly forget their current troubles. It was something Lu Yunzhou could really use in his current state.

"If you’d like to try it, Older Brother, I’ll bring you a cup next time I come."

If Lu Yunzhou hadn’t mentioned it, it wouldn’t even have occurred to Yun Zijin.

"It’s alright, you don’t have to make a special trip. Just bring me one whenever you happen to be passing by."

After a period of adjustment, Lu Yunzhou had adapted quite a bit. He used to get emotional at night, but now he was able to sleep peacefully.

Compared to losing his life, he would much rather live to see his family.
