Chu Ci was very serious about this, “I always feel like my legs are five to ten centimetres shorter than average.”

Cha Bai: ……

The condition of Chu Ci was not so bad in the first place, and because of Cha Bai’s previous conditioning, the body data gradually recovered, and after a short while she was discharged from the hospital.

This time the Chu family seemed to have made up their minds not to bother with Chu Ci, and even Chu Ci was discharged from the hospital without a person coming.

It was raining outside, Chu Ci wore a light blue long-sleeved dress, carrying a small box, and looked up at the sky as she waited for the car.

The sky was dense with dark clouds, and even though a light rain had already fallen, it was still very hot and stifling, and the grey clouds rolled between them as if a storm was brewing.

Inside the hospital office, Lu Jin was squeezing his pen and frowning, not knowing what he was writing in his notebook.

Lu Jin’s train of thought was interrupted when the phone next to him rang, the pen in his hand slightly faltered, and an irritation crossed his eyes as he looked up at the lit-up phone screen next to him.

It was Mrs Chu’s call, this made him quirk an eyebrow, exhale, and look at the phone screen for two seconds before he picked up the phone.

“Hello, how are you, Mrs Chu, what can I do for you?”

His reserved distant voice sounded, this made the Chu mother’s eyes sore.

Her heart was naturally proud that her own child had grown so big and so good in a place she couldn’t see, but the sour heartache was a little heavier because she had learned about him over the years.

She wanted to make amends, but he already lacks nothing, and had even less interest in the Chu family’s estate, having already misplaced her son for so many years, how was she willing to force Lu Jin to do something he didn’t like anymore?

And he wasn’t exactly disowning her, at least he promised to come back every weekend to check on her, which was actually quite good, so she just had to try to restrain herself from causing trouble for Lu Jin.

The only thing that gave her a headache was Chu Ci, the child she raised from childhood, and she didn’t know if it was because she spoilt her that actually made her develop such a temperament.

Chu’s father was indeed right, it was time to teach Chu Ci a lesson and make her more obedient, so she had been cold-hearted and didn’t bother about Chu Ci’s situation anymore.

But she was aware that Chu Ci would be discharged, she watched the rain outside gradually getting heavier, thinking of Chu porcelain who never travelled on her, she couldn’t help but worry. She went to the balcony to avoid Chu’s father and called Lu Jin to confirm if she left safely.

Hearing the intention of Chu’s mother’s over the phone, Lu Jin’s eyebrows lightly rose, casually responding twice and hanging up the phone, thinking about Chu Ci’s pale appearance before he stood up and walked over to the window to take a look outside.

It also happened that Lu Jin’s office had very good lighting, and just from the side of the hospital entrance downstairs, he saw the small figure standing, wearing a thin dress, rain falling on her hands.

She is so childish, does not even know how to take care of herself.

Lu Jin’s movements were slight, and he raised his hand to push up his gold-rimmed glasses, took off his lab coat, put on his jacket, and headed out.

A girl like could make one worry endlessly.

And at the moment Chu mansion, Chu mother put down her phone slightly exhaled, turned her head just to meet Chu father’s eyes.

Chu mother: ……
