Chapter 1163: Medical Miracle

Lu Xiang’s body stiffened as if she had been struck by lightning. The entire venue was silent for a moment. Suddenly, everyone from the Lu family went forward and said warmly, “Grand Old Master is awake!”

“Grand Old Master is actually here!”

Although the grand old master was the previous head of the Lu family, his mighty aura had not decreased in the slightest. He was still respected by everyone in the Lu family. Back then, he had appointed Lu Qingyun to be the next family head before he fell unconscious. After all, he knew very well that Lu Qingyun’s ability was a hundred times stronger than Lu Bai’s. However, after he fell unconscious, the position of the head of the family naturally fell into Lu Bai’s hands.

When the grand old master was in a vegetative state, the doctors all said that he could never wake up again. However, he was awake now! It could simply be said to be a medical miracle!

At this moment, a portion of the Lu family was so excited that they could not say anything. However, there were also some people whose faces were ashen, especially Lu Xiang. Her eyes were filled with horror, and her ears were buzzing. She could not even hear the voices around her.

The grand old master’s words still echoed in her ears. ‘Who’s so mighty to actually want Xi Xi to get lost?’

How did the grand old master know Qiao Xi? Was he here to stand up for Qiao Xi? This was impossible! Could it be that the grand old master was here to stand up for Gu Zheng?

Back then, when Lu Qingyun gave birth, the grand old master was already sick. He was often asleep and did not know what Huang Lilan and Gu Weiming had done at all. He did not have the energy to care about Lu Qingyun either. Moreover, he did not seem to have seen Gu Zheng before.

Lu Xiang pondered deeply, and the uneasiness in her heart grew stronger and stronger. It was only when Qiao Xi called out to her that her entire body trembled and she looked at Qiao Xi with a vigilant expression.

“Second Miss Lu, you can choose not to believe me, but what about Grand Old Master Lu?” Qiao Xi looked at her with a smile and pointed at the old man behind her.

Lu Xiang looked up in fear and met the grand old master’s gaze. Her legs instantly went weak as she fell to the floor.

“Ah! Why did you fall?! Could it be that you’re guilty?! Are you afraid that the grand old master will expose your secret?” Qiao Xi’s tone was teasing.

Lu Xiang’s expression changed drastically as she stammered and explained, “I-I don’t have any secrets. I fell because… I was too excited to see Grandpa and lost my balance!”

She was so nervous that her forehead was covered in sweat. She said in a trembling voice, “Grandpa, why didn’t you… tell me that you’ve woken up?! You just woke up. You should quickly go back to your room and rest.”

Grand Old Master Lu did not like Lu Xiang. He had sharp eyes and was very good at judging people. Lu Xiang looked obedient like her mother, but she was actually vicious and selfish.

He glanced at Lu Xiang in disgust and said in a sharp tone, “It’s not your place to chase me away. This is the Lu family’s ancestral hall. Who dares to stop me from coming? If I hadn’t come, the Lu family would’ve probably turned the world upside down!”

“Grand Old Master!” The fifth uncle of the Lu family hurriedly went forward to explain, “You must have heard stories from those people who are trying to drive a wedge between us. Ah Yan grew up in the Lu family since he was young. He’s already the heir of the Lu family, but Qiao Xi just had to say that Ah Yan is an illegitimate child. Isn’t she trying to snatch Ah Yan’s position by acting like this?”

“What’s wrong with snatching it?” Grand Old Master Lu’s eyes turned cold as he said sternly, “I’ve been unconscious for all these years, and the Lu family has been in a mess because of you!

“Don’t think that I don’t know what you’ve been doing all these years when I was unconscious! Lu Xiang, you keep saying that Lu Yan is Qingyun’s son, but have you done a DNA test? Even though Qingyun isn’t alive, you can get any of the Lu family’s direct descendants to do the test. Do that and we’ll soon know if Lu Yan is the Lu family’s flesh and blood! You know very well that Lu Yan is the child of a mistress. Are you that crazy to raise him in the Lu family?”

Lu Xiang’s lips were pale, and her body was trembling violently. “No, no, Grandpa. Ah Yan is my sister’s child.”

Lu Yan sat in the wheelchair, his body stiff. His heart ached as he said with difficulty, “Grand Old Master, I’m from the Lu family.”

No matter what, he absolutely could not admit his identity. All these years, his grandfather had already paved the way for him. The doctors who took the test back then had also been paid to leave Li City. If Qiao Xi wanted to find the doctors at that time, it was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, they had already forged many DNA tests, and the Lu family had already covered up the truth. As long as Qiao Xi could not produce evidence, no one could prove that he was Huang Lilan’s son.

Lu Yan gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down. The surveillance cameras in the hospital back then had already been destroyed, and more than 20 years had passed. Other than Mo Yuan, no one else could recover the surveillance footage from so long ago.
