Chapter 94: Chapter 94: The Fake Divine Doctor Arrives! (Merry Christmas Eve everyone)
Lu Xingzhou received Jiang Man’s gaze and promptly responded, "Manman and I will head to the airport right now."
"Alright, I’ll have Jingya send you the flight number and time later."
After hanging up, Lu Xingzhou instructed the driver to head to the airport.
About forty minutes later, the car arrived at the airport parking lot.
To Jiang Man’s surprise, quite a few people from the Lu Family had come.
To be precise, Wen Jingya had invited quite a number of people over.
There were about twenty bodyguards alone; one might have thought a celebrity had arrived.
Besides the bodyguards, the leaders were Wen Jingya and Lu Xuemei.
Like a young girl experiencing the first throes of love, Lu Xuemei had specially dressed up for the day.
She had spent quite a bit of money on her appearance, so she didn’t look like someone over 40. You could believe her if she said she was 27 or 28.
"Zhou’er, Manman, over here!" Lu Xuemei called out excitedly.
"Wasn’t it supposed to be tomorrow?" Lu Xingzhou strode over.
Wen Jingya was somewhat embarrassed, "The Divine Doctor changed flights at the last minute..."
Jiang Man just stood behind Lu Xingzhou, not saying a word.
She silently watched Wen Jingya’s performance.
Change flights?
When her aunt had sent the flight information to Lu Xingzhou, Jiang Man had taken the opportunity to do a quick check. There were simply no flights from Congo-Kinshasa to Beicheng the next morning.
There was only one flight a day between these two places.
The fake Divine Doctor was probably already in Beicheng and had randomly chosen a flight to deceive everyone, pretending to fly in from abroad.
As for why the meeting was suddenly moved up half a day from the agreed time, Jiang Man had no clue as of yet.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you guys go sit over there, I’ll watch," Wen Jingya said, her sweet, understanding smile beaming.
Lu Xingzhou nodded in agreement.
The Divine Doctor was specifically for him, and he felt grateful towards Wen Jingya in his heart.
Once success was achieved, he planned to gift her a Porsche Panamera as a token of appreciation.
Wen Jingya forced a smile and left. Once she turned her back, she took out her phone and sent a text.
[How much longer till you arrive?]
The response came quickly: [Soon, soon, stuck in traffic. What’s with the sudden itinerary change? I said beforehand, you’ll need to pay extra!]
[Don’t worry! I’ll pay you for a whole day’s worth!] Wen Jingya hurriedly replied.
The reason she was so frantic to bring the fake Divine Doctor over was to distract Lu Xingzhou’s attention.
Fang Yuheng was already in the process of erasing Yu Qing’s various online traces.
By the time Lu Xingzhou thought to investigate school forums and other such sites, they would have already wiped clean any trace, leaving no evidence to be found.
During the wait, Jiang Man continued gaming.
She dug out a stick of chewing gum from her pocket and chewed idly, bored.
Meanwhile, Lu Xingzhou pulled out a tablet and busied himself with work for a while.
Both were engrossed in their own activities, not disturbing or interfering with each other.
Jiang Man noticed that Lu Xingzhou had changed a lot. If it had been when they’d first met, he would certainly have put on the airs of an elder, earnestly advising her not to lose her ambition over games.
But at some point, he seemed to have stopped interfering with her gaming.
When did that start? Jiang Man thought about it, but found she had no memory for such trivial matters.
She didn’t know how many games of LOL she had played when Wen Jingya let out an exclamation that set the whole place abuzz.
"He’s here, the Divine Doctor is here!"
Lu Xuemei immediately took a large bouquet of flowers from the bodyguard, cradling it in her arms and walking towards Wen Jingya.
"Which one, which one?"
"That one in sunglasses," Wen Jingya waved to the two young men approaching.
Jiang Man lazily lifted her eyelids and gave the newcomers a quick once-over.
They were both around 1.7 meters tall, with polished manners, and despite the sunglasses, it was clear they were both very young.
Upon seeing her idol, Lu Xuemei found herself unable to move, especially since he indeed looked so youthful in person.
"Auntie? Hurry up," Wen Jingya said with a smile, urging her on.
Lu Xuemei instantly felt embarrassed and handed over the bouquet in a coy manner, "You go give it."
After saying that, she retreated to the side.
The fake Divine Doctor was somewhat stunned and adjusted his sunglasses.
This wasn’t in the script provided by the patron beforehand.
The script described that a middle-aged woman would hug him warmly, and he was to accept it gladly, showing an expression of great enjoyment.
But...
Where was the middle-aged woman?
"Brother, sister-in-law, this is the Divine Doctor Man," Wen Jingya passed the bouquet to the fake Divine Doctor and introduced him to Lu Xingzhou and Jiang Man.
Lu Xingzhou walked over with large strides and extended his hand politely.
The fake Divine Doctor struck a pose, one hand in his pocket, the other holding the flowers.
"Sorry, Mr. Lu, I don’t have a free hand."
This too was part of the persona the script had given, telling him to act a bit aloof.
It said that the real Divine Doctor Man was quite arrogant.
The fake Divine Doctor brushed past Lu Xingzhou, asking coldly, "I’m tired, has my room been arranged?"
"Yes, yes, it’s been arranged," Wen Jingya greeted him with a smiling face and turned to Lu Xingzhou, "Brother, don’t mind him, Divine Doctor Man is just like this."
She acted as though she was very familiar with Divine Doctor Man, almost as if she could speak on his behalf.
Lu Xingzhou laughed softly, his first impression of this Divine Doctor Man wasn’t too favorable.
"I won’t be accompanying this evening, please take good care of the Divine Doctor," he said indifferently without much warmth in his tone.
Wen Jingya got a bit panicky upon hearing this, "Brother, I’m a girl, it’s not quite proper. How about asking Assistant Zhao to take care of him?"
After all, when it came down to investigating the matter on the school forum, it was ultimately Zhao Huai who needed to step in.
Holding down Zhao Huai would suffice.
"As you wish," Lu Xingzhou said listlessly.
If it wasn’t for his grandmother, aunt, and his second aunt all welcoming this Divine Doctor Man, he wouldn’t have deigned to pick someone up from the airport, much less tolerate Divine Doctor Man posturing in front of him.
"Ah, why bother with a hotel, all that to and fro is so troublesome, just stay at the old house—it’ll be more convenient to treat Zhou’er there," Lu Xuemei said, quickly jumping into the conversation.
The fake Divine Doctor’s eyes lit up at the prospect of staying at the Lu residence.
The Lu family was the most distinguished family in the northern city; any ordinary person who had never seen the world would want to go there for the experience.
"This sister has a point, staying at the Lu residence is more convenient," the fake Divine Doctor said, feigning seriousness.
When Lu Xuemei heard him call her sister, her heart bloomed with joy.
"Divine Doctor, would you like to take the same car as me later?"
Wen Jingya shot the fake Divine Doctor a look.
Only then did the fake Divine Doctor realize, was this the middle-aged woman mentioned in the script?
She didn’t look old at all.
The script had mentioned that he needed to ingratiate himself with the middle-aged woman, which was his aunt-in-law.
Besides, he had to pick on a girl named Jiang Man, who was Lu Xingzhou’s wife.
The group proceeded to the parking lot en masse.
As the fake Divine Doctor was getting into the car, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Man from the corner of his eye, and for some reason, he found her vaguely familiar. However, he couldn’t for the life of him recall where he had seen her before.
