Chapter 209: So that’s what happened

Snapping out of his weariness, Lu Xiaotong reminds him, "Xiao Chen, I don't mind if the two of you don't marry. But you know how your grandpa is with this engagement." From the tense expression he's making, Lu Chen understood what he meant. 

The old man wants it the most. His grandfather will definitely pull a fit over not marrying Liu Fei Fei. 

"Lao Ba, you don't have to worry about it. I will be the one to tell grandpa about it. If I let you do it, he wouldn't listen to you." Lu Chen sighs. He knows the only person his grandfather would half listen to about this is Lu Chen. 

"Oh, thank goodness then. Well, your grandfather does like you the best compared to the others." The strained expression Lu Xiaotong had before was nowhere to be found as he did a complete 180 the moment he heard Lu Chen. 

It was like he was waiting for Lu Chen to say these words. And he did. Lu Xiaotong couldn't deal with his father as he was too eccentric even for him. 

And Lu Chen's expression twitches. 'Were you waiting for me to deal with grandpa?' He felt like he got duped. 

Zhang Wenling gave her husband a look of contempt. But Lu Xiaotong didn't even care about the looks he's getting from the two as he got what he wanted. He grabs her arm and says, "Xiao Chen, we will be going out now. We don't want to bother you from your rest." He didn't wait for Lu Chen to say anything as he left the room quickly. 

The man didn't want Lu Chen to go back on his words.

Lu Chen went back to lying relaxingly on the bed. Even though he knows he shouldn't be relaxing, this will be one of the only chances he will have to relax before starting to work seriously again. 

But he didn't rest long as Elder Wu came into the room. He asks him,

"Young master, are you feeling better now?" 

Lu Chen nods his head, "I'm fine."

"That is good. Also, I took the liberty of asking the doctors to examine your body as well." He had come to the hospital much earlier than Lu Chen and the three. 

He told the doctors that the young master of the Lu family was coming over there. And to show him respect. 

Ergo, the roles of nurses and doctors waiting for him with respect.

"So that's what happened." Now that Lu Chen has some time to think about it, the nurse and doctors have a fearful expression. And from how fast they were at dealing with him, Elder Wu must have told them about his injuries.

While Lu Chen was mulling on this, Elder Wu quickly bows his head down as he apologizes,

"Young master, please forgive me for not helping you as soon as possible."

'Huh?' Lu Chen looks at him with surprise. He didn't understand why he was bowing his head to him. 'What did he do wrong?'

"If I had actually made a move, then you wouldn't have gotten this injured, and you would have been out of harm's way."

Seeing Lu Chen covered in bandages all over the place, Elder Wu felt conflicted if he had made the right choice. There was another scenario he could have done for it to be controlled. 

But right now, Elder Wu knows he has to apologize to him. 

However, Lu Chen didn't want him to do it, "Elder Wu, you don't need to apologize."

"But-"

"I know you have been watching the whole fight unfold." When Elder Wu said this, he was shocked. 

Lu Chen continues, "Don't worry about it. I know you would have been there to protect me. But you must have had a reason to go." If the thugs were actually a serious problem, Elder Wu would have ended them on the spot way before they even came near the school.

When Lu Chen saw the thugs coming into the school, he felt odd. Why did Elder Wu even allow them to enter the school?

Besides them targeting Feng Meifeng by accident, Lu Chen felt it might have been a test from Elder Wu.

"I realized when I was fighting the thugs that I still have a lot more to learn. I will work harder to improve myself."
