"Sir, when you have time later, remember to pay the entrance fee." The nurse looked at Lu Juyan who had followed him with a trace of envy in her eyes. The corner of his lips curled up into a faint smile as he slowly spoke.

Lu Jingyan nodded and saw the nurse walk out. His eyes glanced over to Dudian's green thighs. He didn't sense any problems. He looked away and helped her up, placing a pillow behind her. He poured a glass of water for her at the bedside table, set it aside, and turned to leave, ready to taste her medical fees.

"Actually, I'll go and pay for myself later." Du Liqing had felt Lu Juyan's intention to leave and pulled on his arm as he spoke indifferently. The anesthetic effect on her leg had yet to dissipate, so she selectively ignored it. Without saying a word, she lifted the blanket, looking extremely stubborn.

Lu Juyan turned around and placed both his hands on Du Ruyan's green arms, stopping her from getting out of bed. He forced her to rest on the bed and cover her with a blanket.

However, Du Liqing pouted with great dissatisfaction and pulled back the covers once again, lying down on the bed unwillingly. He really didn't want Lu Juyan to give her too much help. Gritting his teeth, he tried to put his foot on the shoe and stand on the ground.

"I'm not lacking in money!" Before Du Ruqing could touch the shoes, Lu Juyan had already kicked them off. He stretched out his hand and blocked her path as he spoke.

Du Ruqing pursed her lips. She really didn't like the feeling of being stopped, but Lu Juyan's actions towards her made her unable to loathe him. Suddenly, she remembered the scene of her father appearing at the branch office. Her brows slightly furrowed as she looked at his suit and leather shoes, she couldn't help but guess his identity.

"What exactly do you do?" As Du Liqing was deep in thought, Lu Juyan moved her onto the bed and covered her with the blanket once more without a word. When he turned around to pay, he heard Du Liqing's unintentional question.

This caused a sliver of panic to flash past Lu Juyan's eyes. He also halted his steps and felt Du Ruqing's burning gaze. He opened his mouth, but was unable to fully inform her. The corner of his mouth raised into a smile. He turned around to face Du Yun's green eyes and leisurely said, "Hotel manager."

He didn't have much words to say. Facing his deep eyes, Du Liqing subconsciously believed him. Shifting his gaze away, he did not dare to meet his gaze for fear of sinking deep into the abyss.

"Go back to work first." Just as the two of them fell silent, Du Liqing slowly opened his mouth to suggest not wanting Lu Juyan to quit his job because of her, and at the same time not wanting to have too much trouble with him.

Her mind was filled with the determination she had made the day she cut off contact with him. Her gaze subconsciously shifted to outside the window, selectively ignoring that peculiar feeling in her heart. Listening to the birds chirping outside the window and feeling their cheerful atmosphere, she was unable to cheer up.

"I'm on leave." Lu Juyan looked at Du Ruqing's side profile and felt a faint trace of loneliness and sadness from her body. For some reason, he didn't want to leave this place. He pondered over an excuse in his mind and only managed to say it after a long period of silence.

His confidence was slightly lacking. He didn't know why, but every time he was in front of Du Liqing, he became more and more unlike himself. His calm and decisive actions seemed to disappear like the clouds in the sky.

"Actually, you don't have to do this. "Let's go back, I can also go back by myself later." Du Liqing's brow creased slightly when he heard Lu Juyan's voice. He really didn't like this kind of entanglement. In order to break off this connection, Du Liqing's tone had also become a bit impatient, and a bit annoyed at the way he'd looked at Lu Juyan.

Noticing this mood, Lu Juyan opened his mouth, but was unable to say what he wanted to say. A sad feeling spread from the bottom of his heart. He had a faint feeling that he was being treated like a donkey's liver when he was kind. Avoiding the disgust of Dean who was too green, he turned around and walked out of the ward.

Within the ward, Du Ruqing watched Lu Juyan's departing back as a strange chill rose up her heart, causing her breathing to become a bit ragged. He lowered his eyes slightly, bearing with the emotions that were revealed in the depths of his eyes. His mind was blank, as he was selectively burying the emotions in the depths of his heart. He leaned against the headboard and tried to warm his body by holding the cup full of warm water with both hands.

Lu Juyan stood outside the ward and looked through the glass door at Du Ruyan's green face. He could sense that she had closed her eyes slightly because of fatigue and felt a bit of heartache. He reached out his hand to open the door, but stopped the next second. He turned around and silently leaned against the door.

"To the police station." Lu Juyan left this place after a short while. Call Western Australia and have him arrange a trip to meet the kidnappers in person. His tone became extremely cold, showing that he was in an extremely bad mood.

As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone, causing Western Australia, who had just returned to the company, to be confused. He could not help but grumble in his heart, but he still resigned himself to his fate.

Inside the police station, Lu Juyan entered. The other policemen felt his emotions and cast their gazes over. The originally noisy environment instantly became much quieter.

"We want to see the kidnappers who attacked Zhan Ziye." Not long after, Western Australia hurriedly walked in. Looking at their leader's ice-cold demeanor, they secretly prayed for their kidnappers to keep them safe and sound. He walked inside and spoke to the police chief. Then, he took out Lu Juyan's name card from his pocket and handed it to the police chief.

"Alright, please." The bureau chief glanced at the man before him, then shifted his gaze to the business card. A look of panic flashed across his face as he jumped up from his seat. He walked in front of Lu Juyan with a smile and gestured for the two to sit down.

The bureau chief personally ordered for the kidnappers to be brought out and Lu Juyan to be brought to the meeting office to prepare tea and water. Out of the corner of his eyes, he observed Lu Juyan's expression. He was afraid that Lu Juyan would fly into a rage and cause trouble if he didn't feel that this was the right place.

"Yoh, it's you, the brat who ambushed me, right? Let's see if I, your grandfather, will beat you to death." When the kidnapper entered, he happened to see Lu Juyan sitting in the main seat. Even as he barbequed the bracelet in his hand, he didn't forget how he bared his fangs and brandished his claws.

The next second, the police on the side immediately stepped forward to stop the kidnapper, pressing both of his hands down on his back and forcing him to lower his body.

The pain on his arm made the arrogant aura of the kidnapper disappear, and at the same time, he started to regret his impulsive actions. He grit his teeth and insulted Lu Juyan, trying to be quick with his words.

This made Lu Juyan, who was sitting on his office chair, smile coldly as he stood up. He walked up to the kidnappers and dismissed the two policemen holding him in place. The next second, when he stood up straight, a kick landed on his chest.
