Chapter 448: 448 Lu Qingyi was never her choice_1

Lu Qingyi took a taxi to the Wen Mansion. As she received Luo Jia’s text message, the corners of her lips curled slightly upwards, hinting a deep meaning in her smile.

No sooner had she left the taxi, old Mr. Wen cheerfully approached her. The moment he saw Lu Qingyi, his wrinkled face quickly broke into a broad grin.

"Miss Lu, you are here."

His words were filled with respect as he opened the mansion door for Lu Qingyi.

Lu Qingyi’s expression was indifferent. She glanced at him without saying a word.

"Miss Lu, when can young master Wen Linyu’s leg be completely healed?"

Mr. Wen started the conversation, his major concern remaining over Wen Linyu’s leg.

Only when Wen Linyu’s leg is healed could he genuinely let out a sigh of relief.

"If he doesn’t hinder himself, a full recovery can happen within a year."

Lu Qingyi’s expression was still cold. Her gaze towards Mr. Wen and her voice carried the same detachment.

The leg that should have healed long ago, if not for Wen Linyu’s own obstruction, would have made him stand up by now, instead of still sitting in the wheelchair.

Although she was Doctor L, she wasn’t a Divine Doctor. Wen Linyu’s leg had been damaged for many years. It was inevitable that there had to be a gradual recovery process.

He could not immediately stand up. The acupuncture was almost over. What followed next were herbal baths and physical rehabilitation

A person who hadn’t walked for three years would have to start learning how to walk again, just like a baby, slowly and steadily, until he can walk like a normal person again.

"Miss Lu, aren’t you just a freshman? How can your medical skills surpass those renowned doctors’?"

Curious, Mr. Wen posed the question as he led Lu Qingyi along.

Lu Qingyi was indeed extraordinary, she seemed to know everything, including treating legs that other doctors had deemed impossible to heal.

Wen Linyu’s leg was already numb, but due to Lu Qingyi’s acupuncture, he began to feel pain again.

He could feel cold and heat again now.

Lu Qingyi coldly cast a glance at Mr. Wen, sneering without answering his question.

Unannoyed at not getting a response from her, Mr. Wen was aware of Lu Qingyi’s temper.

The lakeside was full of thriving trees and lush grass, a vista of vibrant greenery. Wen Linyu was sitting by the lake, fishing rod in hand, leisurely fishing.

After he became wheelchair-bound, fishing seemed to be the only interest he had left.

What he was fishing for - fish or loneliness - was unknown.

There were not many fish he had caught. Even when he did, he never ate them.

"Is this the last time?"

When he heard the footsteps, Wen Linyu knew that Lu Qingyi had arrived. He turned his wheelchair around, took off his sunglasses, a peculiarly gentle smile appearing on his face.

His eyes were filled with merriment, soft, light, intermixed with a sense of adoration.

When someone is in love, they can identify them merely from their footsteps.

For Wen Linyu, so deeply in love, it took him just a second to know that Lu Qingyi had arrived.

"Yes."

Lu Qingyi’s expression remained as cold as ever. This was the last time she would be performing acupuncture for Wen Linyu. After this, it would be time for the herbal baths and physical rehabilitation.

She wouldn’t need to come here anymore. There wouldn’t be any necessity for her to.

"How heartless."

Wen Linyu’s hands rested on his knees, a bitter smile spreading across his lips.

The leg that had lost sensation before could now feel cold, heat, pain. But Lu Qingyi was about to fade from his life.

Wen Linyu wasn’t sure about his feelings, probably, he felt heartbroken.

Between his leg and Lu Qingyi, he could only choose one.

Oh no, he didn’t even qualify to have a choice. Lu Qingyi was never an option for him.

His only options were to remain wheelchair-bound or to get up and walk for the rest of his life.

No matter the choice, Lu Qingyi never belonged to his list. Lu Qingyi never belonged to him, not in the past, not now, probably not even in the future.

Lu Qingyi stayed silent and carried out the acupuncture procedure for Wen Linyu as usual, without uttering a single word.

"After this, you won’t visit me anymore, right?"

Wen Linyu felt Lu Qingyi’s cold little hand touching his thigh. His heart palpitated slightly. As he looked at her, his eyes were filled with affection.

Though he asked knowingly, Wen Linyu still expressed his question, probably self-tormenting.

Lu Qingyi responded with a cold and distant attitude, "Yes."

"Why is it him? Why not me?"

Wen Linyu posed the question.

If it were based on the order of acquaintance, he had known Lu Qingyi earlier than Xu Boyan, and they shared some memories.

He had even broken his leg for Lu Qingyi.

Why couldn’t it be him?

"Because you are not him."

Lu Qingyi coldly glanced at Wen Linyu, speaking curtly.

There was no reason why.

Love never cared about who came first or last, only who liked who, who fell in love with who.

Love had nothing to do with time.

Some people grew up together from childhood, met each other every day, and were childhood sweethearts, but they never felt their heart flutter for each other.

Some had met for the first time, their encounters minimal, yet they experienced an adrenaline rush.

Love never had a reason, simply love and not love.

"We can still be friends."

Feeling a pang of hardship in his heart, Wen Linyu lifted his eyes to Lu Qingyi, speaking slowly.

Even if they can’t be lovers, couldn’t they remain friends?

He really wanted to tie Lu Qingyi to himself so badly, so desperately imprison Lu Qingyi.

However, Lu Qingyi had Xu Boyan, and he was no match for him.

"You and I, never have been friends."

Lu Qingyi was indifferent, her expression aloof, with not even a hint of emotion.

She and Wen Linyu were never friends, not in the past, not now, and never in the future.

"Qingyi..."

Wen Linyu called out to her softly, wanting to reach out to touch Lu Qingyi. Yet, he quickly withdrew his hand.

She was truly heartless.

"Alright, here is the prescription. Take medication according to it, persist with a month of herbal baths, and don’t skip physical training either."

Lu Qingyi took out a piece of paper from her pocket, placed it in Wen Linyu’s hand, and spoke slowly.

"I just wish I could always remain your patient."

Wen Linyu held the paper in his hand, studying the words on it while zoning out, speaking slowly.

Lu Qingyi was very cold to him, especially so. However, when treating his leg and explaining details, she could be surprisingly talkative.

Thus, Wen Linyu had a sudden longing to remain Lu Qingyi’s patient for the rest of his life. Listening to her instructions every day probably was a kind of bliss, he guessed.

"I don’t hope so."

Lu Qingyi coldly voiced out. Her expression was unspeakably aloof, distant to the point of indifference.

Wen Linyu hoped to remain her patient for the rest of his life, but she definitely didn’t wish to be his doctor forever.

"Truly heartless."

Wen Linyu didn’t know how many times he had repeated these three words. His expression suggested that he was hurt.
