The Naive Mr. Lu

But the more Shu Zhilan was so evasive, the more Lu Yining felt that something was wrong.

"What punishment?" Lu Yining asked.

After glancing at Lu Yining, whose clothes didn't match her actual gender, Shu Zhilan turned around and walked towards the bathroom: "Yining, mom is a little tired now, I want to rest..."

She is dodging the question!

Lu Yining was sensitive to this.

"Mom, what's the punishment? I know you're tired now, but tell me before you rest, okay?"

After living in this manor for a period of time, Lu Yining could feel that the people around him were quite afraid of his "step-son".

It was precisely because of this that Lu Yining became more and more curious about his sister's growth environment.

Moreover, Lu Yining even felt that Old Smith's punishment was the key to Lu Dingning's character.

In order to get the answer he wanted, Lu Yining even stood in front of Shu Zhilan who was about to enter the bathroom.

This made Shu Zhilan have to stop.

"mom……"

"Yining, those things are not important." Looking at Lu Yining who was still struggling, Shu Zhilan frowned.

"If it's not important, Ningning won't risk his life to do these things." Lu Yining, who put everything together, can now perceive that the old Smith's punishment may be very terrifying and deadly.

Under Lu Yining's various questioning, Shu Zhilan had no choice but to confess: "If Ningning can't get back something that can offset her mistakes, she needs to be whipped."

When she said these words, Shu Zhilan only stared at the ground.

The sadness that spread from her body spread to every corner of the room.

Lu Yining, who was face to face with her at this moment, could clearly perceive this point.

"What kind of whipping? What kind of consequences will it cause?" Just a few whips are not terrible. But Shu Zhilan's demeanor was not like this.

"Old Smith has two sons besides Will, the eldest son. Charlie, the second son, is currently lame, and Bruce, the third son, has a disabled right hand and can't even write. These two children became like this after being whipped. of."

As for the caning whip used by the Smith family, Shu Zhilan has only seen it once and will never forget it.

On that whip, there are very long and sharp iron hooks. It was the hooks that destroyed the nerves in Charlie's legs and made him crippled. In the same way, Bruce also ruined his right hand because of the iron hook.

Of course, whether it was Shu Zhilan or Lu Dingning, what they were more afraid of was not the power of the iron hooks themselves, but that if Lu Dingning was whipped, his clothes would be torn apart by these iron hooks.

At that time, Lu Dingning's gender will definitely be fully exposed.

And would Old Smith, who is cruel by nature, still tolerate the mother and daughter who deceived him around?

Every time Shu Zhilan thought of this, her scalp would tingle.

After saying all this in one breath, Shu Zhilan looked up again only to realize that what she just said had caused a lot of shock to Lu Yining.

At this moment, Lu Yining's face was a little frighteningly pale.

"Okay, you go to rest too. As for the rest, we'll talk about it when Dylan comes back." Shu Zhilan said to him after reaching out to give him a hug.

And Lu Yining could only silently agree.

It's just that what he learned from Shu Zhilan tonight must have kept him awake all night...

In the early morning, Zong Jize woke up with the sound of retching.

The part on the shoulder was still very painful, especially when he forced his body up for a while, but Zong Jize still gritted his teeth and held back.

Because only he and Lu Dingning fell asleep in this ward.

And at this moment, Lu Dingning is not on the bed either.

So the person who retched was probably his Ningning.

Zong Jize, who was aware of this, got out of bed and walked quickly towards the bathroom regardless of the pain on his body.

As Zong Jize expected, the person in the bathroom who was retching in front of the toilet was indeed his Ning Ning.

"What's wrong with you? I'll ask the doctor to come over and show you." Zong Jize said so when he saw Lu Dingning's pale face that was almost transparent.

But just as Zong Jize was about to turn around after speaking, Lu Dingning grabbed his trouser legs.

"No, I'm fine..."

At this moment, Lu Dingning, who had already retched, stood up.

But her situation still looks pretty bad.

Not to mention his face was pale, there was still bean-sized sweat on his forehead. Furthermore, when she was talking to Zong Jize, she kept panting heavily.

She doesn't look like she's okay like this.

"I'll go out and lie down for a while."

Lu Dingning's insistence made Zong Jize busy finding water for her, and then followed her back to the ward.

When Lu Dingning lay back on the bed again, Zong Jize, who still had a lot of gauze wrapped around his shoulders, was standing by her side, staring at her intently.

At that scene, Lu Dingning couldn't help laughing.

Zong Jize, who was still worried about the guy, couldn't help being a little annoyed when he saw the beautiful smile on Lu Dingning's face.

"What laughing?"

"I'm the one who laughed at you for making it look like you were shot."

That's right, Lu Dingning felt like they had switched roles.

However, Zong Jize didn't get angry because of her teasing.

He just stretched out his hand and pinched Lu Dingning's cheek: "I still have the heart to smile, I'm almost worried to death."

If she hadn't been worried about revealing her gender, according to Zong Jize's character, he would have to hold her down and let the doctor check it out.

But the guy who worried him so much was still lying down and smiling at him, showing his canine teeth.

I don't know if lying down for a while relieved her uncomfortable symptoms, but now Lu Dingning's complexion is much better than before.

Bathed in the morning light, she looks charming not only with a charming smile, but also with clean eyes without any impurities.

This kind of Lu Dingning made Zong Jize so fascinated that he forgot the other words for a while.

On Lu Dingning's side, he was still comforting: "It's okay, I guess it's because I had a bad stomach after drinking last time. Lie down quickly and sleep for a while."

The gunshot wound on his body, if he doesn't rest well, it will easily become the root cause of the disease.

Yesterday, Dr. Mei Lin specifically asked Lu Dingning to take good care of her. So at this moment, how could Lu Dingning allow himself to affect Zong Jize's recovery?

"You're like this, I can't sleep!" Zong Jize still insisted on sitting, staring at her all the time, as if wishing to see through Lu Dingning's possible problems with his clairvoyant eyes.

But Lu Dingning patted the pillow beside her towards him: "If you can't sleep, lie down and lie down with me for a while, or use it as a pillow for me."

This ward is a special-level VIP, not to mention all the modern facilities in the room, and the bed is also very spacious, it is definitely not a problem for two adults to lie there.
