The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind novel Chapter 211

Chapter 211: Chapter 211: The Reason for Not Going to Port City

With Lu Qingyan’s firm "No," the entire living room fell into an eerie silence, even Lu Qingyan himself fell silent.

He just instinctively didn’t want Jiang Nanshu to go to Port City; he didn’t want Jiang Nanshu to know that there were traces of Zhou Yanxu in Port City.

Jiang Nanshu looked at him, puzzled.

"Such a strong reaction? Could it be that you also have an old flame in Port City? Alright, alright, now I absolutely must go!"

Lu Qingyan: "..."

He felt mentally exhausted.

"Why not? I’ve looked into it, and there’s a hospital in Port City that specializes in this type of cancer and has a higher chance of recovery; the hospital there is the best choice."

Seeing Lu Qingyan’s silence, Jiang Nanshu continued, "If we don’t go, that’s fine too, but you need to give me a reason."

"I’ll just blow you away first, don’t make me bring up the cinnabar mole again."

Jian Hemian watched the drama unfold, speaking slowly, "That’s right, future brother-in-law, you must have a reason for not going. Although I also think Port City is fine, the Jiang Family has properties there too. My older brother is planning to go inspect them soon, and if Aunt Ji is getting treatment there, he will also look after her."

Lu Qingyan glanced around, his gaze settling on Father Ji, with a warm smile appearing on his lips: "It’s too far away. Port City is over two thousand kilometers from Beijing, and Uncle Ji surely wouldn’t feel at ease with Aunt Ji going that far. Also, if the hospital is in Beijing, it will be convenient for Ji Ze to visit. Nannan, you still have to study, and certainly won’t have time to take care of things in Port City. Aunt Ji will surely miss her home if she is alone there getting treatment. Nannan, if you insist on choosing, I can only invite the authoritative doctors from Port City to treat Aunt Ji here. I won’t let you go that far, I won’t feel at ease."

Ji Ze hesitated for a moment, then added in a low voice, "I also think Port City is too far. I would like to go take care of mom at the hospital on weekends."

Jiang Nanshu gave him a look.

Ji Ze coughed lightly, guiltily averting his eyes: "If it’s sister’s choice, however far it is, she has her reasons... I support her."

Jiang Nanshu: "..."

"Ji Ze, acting after the fact!"

She then looked towards Father Ji.

After knowing that his daughter would take care of his wife’s treatment, Father Ji had no objections at all. Even if Jiang Nanshu asked him to stop raising pigs and go to Port City to take care of Mrs. Ji, he would be willing to do so. He could just rent a house there and find a light job; he couldn’t let Jiang Nanshu pay for everything.

So, he said, "I’ll listen to Nannan."

Mrs. Ji had no objections either.

She actually didn’t want to be treated, but she was truly afraid of the baseless reputation Jiang Nanshu might get. She couldn’t let her daughter be harmed.

Whether she could be cured or not was up to fate.

Lu Qingyan’s gaze drifted casually out the window: "I’m just making a suggestion. Don’t get the wrong idea. If you want to go to Port City, I will accompany you. If it’s in Beijing, I will call the authoritative doctors from Port City to treat Aunt Ji."

Jiang Nanshu: "..."

"Was I overthinking it? I almost thought you had some shady business in Port City."

Jiang Nanshu looked at Father Ji and then at Ji Ze, who was still underage.

She finally compromised, "Alright, it will be in Beijing then. Let’s ask Brother Qingyan for help in arranging the best medical team for my mom."

A weight lifted off Lu Qingyan’s heart, his expression remained calm: "Hmm, her condition should not be delayed any longer. It’s best to get her hospitalised for an examination as soon as possible, and then I’ll contact the doctors. They will need some time to get here."

It would indeed be better for Mrs. Ji to receive treatment in Beijing; she could be looked after. As for authoritative doctors, as long as you have power and influence, anything is possible.

Jiang Nanshu told Mrs. Ji to pack her things, as they would leave for Beijing People’s Hospital shortly.

Shang Xu touched the flowers in the garden reluctantly, his frown deep: "Are we going back home now? Xuxu doesn’t want to go back."

Since yesterday, Lu Qingyan had actually received a call from Lu Mother, but he had hung up, annoyed, and later blocked her contact.

It was nothing more than asking him to send Shang Xu back.

Lu Qingyan had suffered enough; Shang Xu was still so young, his worldview innocent and pure.

He didn’t want his childhood to be spent in unhappiness either.

He didn’t think Jiang Nanshu was fierce at all.

Because she used to be just like that.

Seemingly unfriendly on the surface, but in reality, very protective of him.

"Sister." Ji Ze couldn’t help but call out to her again.

Jiang Nanshu lifted her eyebrows impatiently, "What now?"

Ji Ze wore an obedient expression, his youthful face smiling, "Nothing, I just feel like you’ve changed back. I like the current you. The previous you didn’t seem like you at all."

Without waiting for Jiang Nanshu to react, Ji Ze ran off, "I’m going to help mom pack."

Jiang Nanshu couldn’t help but remember the last words of the Space Traveler.

The soul of this body was sent to another realm, dying at the age of four.

But she hadn’t died at four; she was still very much alive.

She almost thought he was talking about her.

The group packed up, with Lu Qingyan driving, taking Mrs. Ji to Beijing.

Because there wasn’t enough room in the car,

Father Ji and Ji Ze would come tomorrow.

It was the first time Mrs. Ji had been in such an expensive car, and for a while, she didn’t dare move too much, afraid of dirtying it.

Shang Xu looked at her from the side, "Grandma, lie down, the seat is really soft and comfortable."

Mrs. Ji just smiled, "It’s okay, I’m used to sitting like this."

Shang Xu yawned, unfastening the child seat’s safety belt, and curled up in Mrs. Ji’s arms, his smile revealing little baby teeth, "Grandma smells nice. Hold me while I sleep."
