Chapter 96: See a Doctor
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Gan went back to his bedroom to take a shower.
Song Ci frowned and tried to come up with a plan, but was unsuccessful. Anyway, she read the script before sending a message to Yang Haoran, stating that she was willing to try for the role.
When Yang Haoran saw her text, he was relieved. It seemed like David was exaggerating about Song Ci. She was actually quite rational and did not refuse to be a tertiary female lead. Thus, he quickly made an appointment with Song Ci to attend the audition.
Once Lu Gan was done showering, he came out of the bathroom. When Song Ci saw him, she said happily, “I’ve just made an appointment with Brother Yang. We will be attending an audition the day after tomorrow.”
Lu Gan’s heart skipped a beat. This meant Song Ci would be leaving pretty soon, right? However, Lu Gan maintained a gentle composure.
“All the best.”
“Thank you.”
Song Ci smiled as she took her pajamas. Then, she went into the bathroom.
Once she was out of sight, Lu Gan took a deep breath. He got onto the bed and closed his eyes.
The next morning, Song Ci was practicing for the audition when Song He called. Without hesitating, she handed her phone to Lu Gan. The latter calmly picked up the phone and said, “What’s the matter?”
Song He was displeased to hear Lu Gan’s voice. He was hoping that Song Ci would answer so he could subdue her. Up till now, he was unable to take advantage of Song Ci. If he were to tell Lu Gan that she married him for money, how would he react? He knew that it was impossible to get through Lu Gan unless he complied with his demands. In the end, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and said, “Lu Gan. I’ve been thinking all night. You’re right. Your marriage to Song Ci is a big deal. As her father, words can’t express my happiness. So, I’ll give her 50 million. The Song family can’t be compared to the Lu family. This is my limit.”
Lu Gan sneered.
“50 million? Will you actually give that amount? No. It should be 100 million.”
......
Song He was in agony. Just as he was about to say something, Lu Gan continued, “If you can’t pay up, it means that you do not care about me as a son-in-law. Song Ci and I won’t be visiting.”
After saying that, Lu Gan hung up the phone.
Song He was so angry that he threw another tea set on the floor.
Song Ci asked, “He still hasn’t agreed?”
Lu Gan handed her the phone and replied, “Don’t worry. He won’t be able to hold on for long. By the way, I have to go out for a while. If you need a car, call Zhang Huan.”
“You’re going out? What’s the matter?”
Lu Gan looked into Song Ci’s clear eyes and hesitated for a moment.
“I’m going to see a doctor.”
Song Ci instantly felt nervous. She understood what was happening and wanted to go with him. However, he might be unwilling. While she was wondering what to do, Lu Gan asked, “Do you want to come with me?”
Song Ci hurriedly nodded.
“Yes…”
Lu Gan smiled gently.
“Tell the two children that we’ll be back soon.”
Song Ci immediately stood up. Just as she was about to leave, Lu Gan grabbed her hand and said helplessly, “There’s no need to be in such a hurry. Let’s have some breakfast first.”
Upon hearing that, Song Ci sat down again and lowered her head.
Lu Gan looked at her excited expression and could not help but feel sweetness enveloping his heart. Originally, he had no plans to bring Song Ci along, but he succumbed to her gaze. Song Ci was clearly worried about him. It also looked like she wanted to say something, but could not. He knew that she would never open her mouth first. Besides, she had never been the type to cause others difficulties. Hence, he decided to extend an invitation to her.
Before this, Lu Gan was very stubborn. He also disliked being pitied. After the accident, he became even more cautious and distrustful. Every time he went to the doctor, only Huang Hao would accompany him. Things slowly changed after he met Song Ci. This experience was quite pleasant. He felt happier and slowly became more open.
Lu Gan smiled and continued to eat his porridge. Once Song Ci was done eating, she immediately went to look for the two children.
“Why are you going? Why can’t you bring us along?”
Lu Suo looked confused.
Song Ci did not hide anything.
“We’re going to get a check-up on your father’s legs. We’ll be back soon.”
Lu Suo felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. Nonetheless, he still nodded.
“Will my father’s legs recover?”
