A female character in a book, regaining her luck

Chapter 156 I can’t stand this nagging!

After Lu Huanchu finished his work at the research institute, he immediately rushed to the medical center.

In fact, this is their own hospital. The old man will definitely enjoy the highest level of medical treatment while hospitalized here, so he doesn't have to worry so much.

But his wife likes to take care of him and insists on coming over to take care of him no matter what.

In order to give his wife a break, he would switch shifts with her when he was free.

Fortunately, the old man has recovered well and will be discharged from the hospital soon.

As soon as he entered the hospital today, he felt something was unusual. The medical staff here all smiled and said to him, "Dr. Lu, thank you for the cake!"

Although he didn't know what happened, Lu Huanchu had a feeling that it was related to Mu Chaosheng.

His premonition was confirmed the moment he opened the door of the ward.

The scene in the ward made him a little dazed, and he subconsciously glanced at the ward number to confirm whether he had walked into the wrong room.

In fact, as soon as I saw Mu Chaosheng, I knew I was definitely in the right place.

"What good thing happened?" Lu Huanchu looked at Mu Chaosheng.

Mu Chaosheng then handed a piece of cake to him and said, "Doctor Lu, my company has finally made a profit with the help of Dad. This is a celebratory cake I bought specially to thank Dad. The cake is too big for Dad to finish by himself, so you guys can share some of it!"

Lu Huanchu had an expression of "I see."

If it was just a celebratory cake, the old man might not give it face. His wife must have said something else to fool him.

He finally realized that there is always someone better than him in this world!

Lu Huanchu took the cake and took a bite: "It tastes good..."

Mu Chaosheng nudged him gently with his elbow: "You benefited from my father's help, so why don't you say thank you?"

When Lu Fengshi heard Mu Chaosheng's words, he quickly glanced at Lu Huanchu, frowned slightly, and his expression became cold and serious.

Thanks?

Ever since Lu Huanchu's mother passed away, there has been no expression of "thank you" between him and the old man.

However, after hearing Mu Chaosheng's hint, he probably guessed how she had tricked the old man into becoming so "amiable"!

Originally he wanted to say, "I am so lucky to have the old man's help in this life", but he didn't.

His wife works so hard and sincerely to help him run the household, how could he hold her back?

“Dad, thanks for letting me have my cake and eat it!”

Although the old man only hummed in a cold voice, his originally tense face suddenly relaxed.

The tense atmosphere in the ward that had suddenly arisen became relaxed again with Lu Huanchu's concise and clear words of thanks.

Two days later, Lu Fengshi completed the discharge procedures and returned home.

The house was kept in perfect order, as if he had never been admitted to the hospital or left.

After dinner, Lu Fengshi announced something: "Xiaomu, starting tomorrow, you don't have to take care of the meals. The management of other trivial matters will also be handed over."

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and then at the old man and Mu Chaosheng.

Is this a sign of approval?

"Then Dad, do I not need to report if I come home late in the future?"

Lu Fengshi's eyebrows were solemn: "You are pushing it further!"

As he stood up and walked to the stairs, he added, "No need!"

Mu Chaosheng first looked at Lu Huanchu with a smile, then looked at everyone with a smile. Everyone was also smiling, and they were very happy for their sister-in-law who did not act like a sister-in-law.

Lu Fengshi returned to his room to handle his work, but he did not turn a page of the documents on his desk for a long time. It was not until late at night that he came to his senses and sorted out the documents and put them aside.

Back in the room, he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. At this moment, he actually hoped that his rambling daughter-in-law would appear beside him and listen to her chattering about trivial matters.

Lu Fengshi got up and sat for a while in the room where the relics of his two wives were placed.

He used to come here to stay for a while when he was upset. Just sitting here for a while would help him calm down.

But he didn't know what happened today. The longer he stayed, the more depressed and anxious he felt.

Suddenly, Bai Fengshi found a trace of inner peace from the helplessness and speechlessness when he heard the knock on the door: This house is really not soundproof...

When Uncle Fang heard the noise, he knew that his master was with someone, so he rested with peace of mind.

Just when Mu Chaosheng was about to knock on the door again, he saw Lu Fengshi coming out of another room at the corner of the corridor.

"Why are you here again?" Lu Fengshi thought that after he revealed that he agreed with her, she would not come again.

Although Lu Fengshi did not allow Mu Chaosheng to come in or sit down, Mu Chaosheng was familiar with the place and sat down on the sofa casually as if she was in her own territory, and even poured herself a glass of water.

"Dad, you just got out of the hospital. I was worried about you, so I came to see you." Mu Chaosheng said as if he was asking for credit.

Upon hearing this, Lu Fengshi just glanced at Mu Chaosheng and sat down on the sofa opposite her.

After the two of them stayed like this quietly for a while, Lu Fengshi said, "We've seen it all, let's go."

"Dad, I have one more thing..."

Lu Fengshi looked as if he had expected something, and he knew that things couldn’t be that simple: “Go ahead.”

"Dad, I have benefited a lot from you in the past six months. I am grateful and repay your kindness. So now, you can make a request to me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best."

Lu Fengshi's eyes widened slightly, and he looked surprised, but he quickly returned to his usual serious look: "You've gotten carried away so quickly."

Mu Chaosheng stopped laughing and answered seriously, "Dad, I'm serious."

How could Lu Fengshi not see Mu Chaosheng's seriousness? He said, "If I ask you to divorce Huanchu immediately and leave the Lu family, can you do it?"

"Of course!"

Mu Chaosheng answered so straightforwardly and decisively that Lu Fengshi was really surprised: "Did you hear it clearly?"

"Dad, there's nothing wrong with my ears. I heard it clearly." Mu Chaosheng smiled disapprovingly, "Even if I get divorced tomorrow and leave the Lu family, Huanchu will marry me back the day after tomorrow. What should I be afraid of!"

Lu Fengshi frowned, and finally he could only smile and shake his head: "I know, you can go back."

Mu Chaosheng looked at the time and said, "Dad, it's not time yet. I'll sit for a while."

Lu Fengshi couldn't sleep either, so he didn't chase her away.

Mu Chaosheng sat for a while, perhaps because he was bored, he walked back and forth in the room, touching the vase, drinking a sip of water, pulling the curtains, and finally walked to the windowsill and fiddled with a pot of camellia.

"Dad, you really don't have any requests for me? I swear to keep it a secret and never tell anyone a word!"

Lu Fengshi's tired and heavy eyes inadvertently glanced at Mu Chaosheng who was fiddling with camellia.

She was pointing at the camellia petals with her fingers, counting them one by one, with an extremely serious expression, as if she would make a mistake if she was distracted.

In a trance, the scene in front of Lu Fengshi seemed to overlap with a scene many years ago.

After Mu Chaosheng finally finished counting the petals, he murmured a number, breathed a sigh of relief, and a victorious smile appeared on his face.

When she looked up, her eyes met Lu Fengshi's, and only then did she realize that Lu Fengshi was looking at her.

The moment their eyes met, she saw a rare kindness on Lu Fengshi's face. After this moment, his face was resting on the pillow again.

Mu Chaosheng held the camellia pot and placed it in front of Lu Fengshi: "Dad, do you want to count it too and see if our results match?"

"Nonsense..."

"If you don't want to count, forget it. I'll count again myself. Don't interrupt me!"

Mu Chaosheng held the flowerpot and started counting again.

Lu Fengshi didn't say anything, but occasionally he would stare at her counting the petals in a daze.

Mu Chaosheng felt that the old man was different than before, so she stayed here, thinking that maybe he could say something.

But he never said anything and made no requests.

She wanted to wait a little longer, so after counting the camellia petals, she began to count the leaves. After she finished counting the leaves, she moved in other bonsai.

She has tried all the bonsais with few flowers, leaves and fruits, but she ignored the pine and cypress bonsais with numerous leaves.

After two hours, Lu Fengshi said nothing, and Mu Chaosheng had no choice but to give up, thinking that haste makes waste.

"Dad, I'm sleepy, I want to go back to bed!"

Lu Fengshi nodded: "Go back."

"You should also go to bed early."

When Mu Chaosheng put the bonsai back, she stumbled and the bonsai fell to the ground. She looked at Lu Fengshi embarrassedly: "Dad, I'm sorry, I will compensate you with a bonsai tomorrow..."

Mu Chaosheng said, then squatted down and started to clean up.

Lu Fengshi was not angry and said, "It's okay, let Uncle Fang clean up tomorrow and you can go back."

"But..."

Lu Fengshi waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to worry: "Go back quickly."

Lu Fengshi's tone was unusually gentle, and Mu Chaosheng no longer insisted.

She said goodbye to Lu Fengshi, turned around and walked out of the room. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she heard Lu Fengshi's voice from behind: "Xiao Mu..."

Mu Chaosheng's eyes lit up, and they sparkled like glowing gems. He smiled at Lu Fengshi and said, "Dad, what's the matter?"

Lu Fengshi was speechless. He hesitated for a while and waved his hand: "It's okay, let's go."

"Oh..." Mu Chaosheng couldn't hide his disappointment.

Mu Chaosheng continued to go downstairs. She knew the door behind her was slowly closing. Suddenly she turned around and yelled, "Dad, I'm still here!"

Lu Fengshi was startled and stopped closing the door abruptly: "I'm not blind, I saw it!"

Mu Chaosheng ran over and said, "Dad, I really have to leave!"

Lu Fengshi frowned, and no one stopped her: "Let's go, let's go!"

Mu Chaosheng turned around again to leave, but before she took a step, she turned back and looked at Lu Fengshi.

"What's going on?" Lu Fengshi asked.

Mu Chaosheng lowered his head and thought for a second, then he squeezed in through the crack in the door and took out paper and pen from Lu Fengshi's study, and quickly wrote a string of numbers and words on the paper.

She handed the paper and pen to Lu Fengshi and said, "Dad, this is my thank you gift to you. We are now even!"

Lu Fengshi picked up the note and saw Gu Huanyou’s cell phone number and email address on it.

"You...!" Lu Fengshi didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't know whether to criticize her or thank her, so he simply stopped talking and fixed his eyes on the paper in his hand.

"Dad, the sun has just set over there!" Mu Chaosheng reminded him before leaving.

If it were in the past, Lu Fengshi would have been furious with her a long time ago, and he would not have turned into a real old man like he is now.

After returning from the hospital, Lu Fengshi changed a little.

But both mothers passed away a long time ago, the past cannot be brought back, and only the present and the future can be redeemed.

Mu Chaosheng wanted to wait for Lu Fengshi to ask the question himself, but judging from the fact that Lu Fengshi took a step forward and then quickly stepped back, it would be harder than climbing to the sky to wait for this stubborn old emperor to speak!

She couldn't stand this nagging and could only lend an assist!

Although the old man didn't smile, his bright eyes said it all!

Mu Chaosheng did everything he could and could only pray silently that everything would have a good outcome.

On the way back, the more she thought about it, the happier she became, and all her sleepiness disappeared.

Looking up at the bright moon, she slowed down her pace and enjoyed the summer stars.

As she walked through the garden, she suddenly felt like sitting down, so she found a pavilion and sat down.

Looking at the bright moon and stars in the sky, she felt like everything happened just like yesterday.

Not long ago, she was just a stranger who came from a book, but now she has completely become a person in the book.

If there is only one truth in the world, she will not let herself down, nor will she let down the original owner.

If there are many realities in the world, she believes that in another reality, her parents still have a daughter, even if that daughter is no longer her.

She also believed that the original owner, like her, had a secret and a new life that only she knew.
