Chapter 178: Chapter 178: A Man Like a Worthless Plaster

Although he had understood beforehand, hearing it was still very distressing.

Humans aren’t gods who can easily say they don’t care and truly mean it.

Lu Jing held his breath, very seriously saying,

"Jiang Ye, you need to think this through!"

How could the Jiang Family possibly accept a wife who couldn’t have children?

Wouldn’t that be a huge joke if it got out?

"What is there to think about? I only know that in this life, I only want you!"

Jiang Ye said this without hesitation, repeating it for the third time.

Lu Jing moved his lips but didn’t say anything.

Jiang Ye directly pulled him into his arms and held him tight,

"Having no children is also good; our life together won’t be disturbed by anyone!"

Pfft~

Originally still feeling sentimental, that remark instantly broke the mood.

"Alright, let go."

...

Back at the apartment building, someone was sticking around like a clinging plaster, following everywhere.

Lu Jing was on the phone when a head popped right under his eyelids, forcing him to press it down to continue speaking to the person on the other end,

"Yes, the patient has high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, and must be cautious with medications."

"Mhm, okay, don’t worry, you guys go ahead."

After the call, Lu Jing rolled his eyes,

"Can you find something to do on your own? Stop bothering me?"

So clingy, but not exactly a teenager anymore.

"I can’t!"

He denied directly.

Lu Jing curled his lips and, too lazy to bother, turned and went to the study.

There were many books in the study, nearly covering all industries.

Finally, on the lowest shelf, he found a surgical medicine book.

Jiang Ye, who initially intended to persist in sticking close, was instead called away by a phone call.

For a moment, Lu Jing felt very peaceful and started reading seriously.

However, the books weren’t very professional, and the descriptions were rather superficial; after a while, he couldn’t continue reading.

He put the book back in its original place, planning to find another one to read.

Then, suddenly his sharp eyes spotted something sandwiched between two books?

Out of curiosity, he couldn’t help but pull it out.

After opening it, it turned out to be a lung CT scan report, with the report reading: Severe bilateral lung lacerations!

Looking at the diagnosis, Lu Jing silently repeated to himself: It’s someone else, it’s someone else, it’s someone else.

However, there it was in black and white, the patient was indeed - Jiang Ye!

This report dated back six years, just shortly after he had gone abroad.

Lu Jing didn’t know how he managed to suppress the huge reaction inside him, he crouched down and continued to search the shelf.

Sure enough, in a corner, he found another document - a critical illness notice!

’Clap’, the books in his hand all fell to the ground, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

No wonder, no wonder that man had a long, deep surgical scar on his chest, which must have been from the chest cavity opened during the double lung surgery.

At that moment, the door outside opened, but Lu Jing didn’t notice.

Not until the man’s figure had been standing in front of him for who knows how long did he realize something was amiss.

He looked up,

"Jiang Ye?"

The man crouched down, naturally noticing the two medical documents scattered on the floor.

"Where did you find these?" he asked nonchalantly.

In theory, all those old reports should have been shredded into confetti long ago!

So why were these two still around?

And just so happened to be found by the woman?

Lu Jing pointed at the bookshelf, then asked in return,

"What happened? How did you get such serious injuries?"

"Let’s not bring up the past, shall we?"

Jiang Ye indeed didn’t want to mention it, now that he was alive and well, there was no need to make this woman go through the fear again.
