Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Holding the Opponent’s Weakness_1
 

Lu Zhendong fetched a glass of water for Lu Jingyi and even blew on it to cool it down before handing it over to her.

This special treatment was only ever given to Lu Jingyi; no one else had this privilege.

Lu Jingyi glanced at Lu Zhendong. After learning about what Lin Xiao mentioned, she began to feel a touch of fear towards him.

After Lu Jingyi finished her water, Lu Zhendong set the cup on a cabinet.

“Xiaojing, who made you sick?” Lu Zhendong asked, wishing to stand up for her.

Lu Jingyi’s eyes flickered a few times, recalling what Lin Xiao said. She couldn’t put the blame on Lin Xiao, so she had to find a reason to brush off Lu Zhendong. “Dad, am I sick? I just thought my throat was uncomfortable, didn’t know it was an illness.”

Lu Zhendong listened to his daughter’s words. Was she implying that she didn’t know about her sickness?

And it had nothing to do with Lin Xiao?

“Are you hungry?” Lu Zhendong remembered that it was noon, and she probably hadn’t eaten yet, so he asked.

Lu Jingyi sullenly touched her stomach. “I really am hungry.”

Lu Zhendong stood up to go for food in the hospital.

But the guards outside took charge of the task and went to buy food instead.

“Dad, I’m okay now, you can go back to work!” Lu Jingyi was still somewhat wary of Lu Zhendong, unable to be as calm and candid as before.

“You are not recovered yet, how can I leave? Xiaojing, would you like your brother to come and see you?” Lu Zhendong thought of how the siblings had yet to acknowledge each other or make amends, wishing to take advantage of Xiaojing’s sickness to facilitate reconciliation.

Lu Jingyi blurted, “No.” Even before her words had fallen, she realized what she had just said, and quickly explained, “Dad, what I meant was, it’s not urgent, not urgent,” before offering an unabashedly insincere smile.

Fearing her father would grow suspicious.

That matter was eventually became a shadow in her heart that could not be banished.

If she didn’t want to live a hard life, she couldn’t let them figure out that she was not the real Lu Jingyi.

Lu Zhendong would never force his beloved daughter, Lu Jingyi.

“Okay, no hurry, now your brother is also in Kyoto, in the Kyoto military district. You two have met, you can get in touch more in the future, foster some bonds,” Lu Zhendong hoped they could reconcile.

As for Lin Xiao and Lu Hongxuan, he had set them aside long ago.

“Okay,” Lu Jingyi said, forcing a smile.

She was afraid Lu Jianjun would realize something and visit the forces less often, and she would also reduce her visits to the military district compound. Luckily, her father had arranged accommodation for her. From now on, she needed to save money so that even if her cover was blown, she would not suffer.

The best choice, then, was to get married, and to a man from a decent family.

She didn’t think that Lin Xiao would blow her cover, as they each had the goods on the other.

Lu Zhendong couldn’t stay with Lu Jingyi forever, and finally left, persuaded by Jingyi herself.

Watching Lu Zhendong leave, Lu Jingyi heaved a long sigh.

She was still struggling to accept what Lin Xiao had said.

The father who had doted on her for so many years had turned out to be not her real father, but her uncle. How was she to accept this?

“Xiaojing, you’re ill,” Lin Xiao did not waste much time after Lu Zhendong’s departure before she appeared in the hospital dressed elegantly like a well-off lady.

Lu Jingyi was on edge as Lin Xiao arrived, “What are you here for?”
