Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Qiao Yun’s Decision
Chapter 440 -440: Qiao Yun’s Decision
He even remembered clearly that when he was five months old, his older brother sneakily drank his baby formula.
Did this collision knock all memories back into place?
Su Mian and Lu Rui hovered around Lu Zhanxing for a good while, fussing over him for fear he might be suffering in silence.
In the end, it was Lu Jingzhi who stopped them, “Dad, Mom, you haven’t slept for a whole day and night. Go and rest first, I’m here for him.”
Su Mian and Lu Rui didn’t want to leave; they didn’t want to be away from Lu Zhanxing for even a moment.
Lu Zhanxing said with a hoarse voice, “Go and rest, or else I’ll feel uneasy and won’t be able to rest well.”
He whined playfully, “Don’t you want me to feel good?”
Seeing him like this, their hearts melted, and they had no will to argue.
They went to rest only after entrusting Lu Zhanxing to Lu Jingzhi’s care.
Once everyone had left, Lu Zhanxing asked anxiously, “Where is Sister?”
Lu Jingzhi replied, “She’s been worried about you all day; we told her to go and rest.”
Qiao Yun woke up in the lounge and immediately came to the hospital ward to watch over him, but it was Su Mian who finally persuaded her, with a stern face, to send Qiao Yun away to rest.
They didn’t want Lu Zhanxing to be barely awake before Qiao Yun collapsed from exhaustion too.
Lu Zhanxing’s face was filled with remorse, “I’m really useless, making you all worry so much.”
“What does it have to do with you? It’s the fault of the person who caused you to end up like this.”
Lu Jingzhi watched Lu Zhanxing for a long time before saying directly, “This time, Sister saved you.”
Lu Zhanxing was stunned, unable to react, and it took a while for his brain to catch up.
He said in shock and surprise, “Big Brother, you knew?”
Lu Jingzhi nodded with a complex expression, “I saw it, Mom and Dad still don’t know, but I guess the person who cured you must be related to Sister.”
Lu Zhanxing pressed his lips together, his eyes filled with self-reproach.
He had once again made Sister worry about him.
He wasn’t a qualified brother.
“When did you find out?” Lu Jingzhi asked Lu Zhanxing.
Lu Zhanxing said guiltily, “It was when Sister went to Hai City to find me. I accidentally found out she was Professor Qiao, and I didn’t tell you guys because I wanted Sister to say it herself.”
If Sister was willing to come clean, it would prove that she considered herself a part of the Lu Family.
But she still hadn’t said anything, and Lu Zhanxing was actually quite afraid that one day she would suddenly leave.
Lu Jingzhi nodded and did not ask further.
He didn’t know what else to ask.
Thinking back to when he had mistakenly assumed his sister was ignorant and unlearned, he thought to himself that he was quite something, suspecting Professor Qiao of being uneducated.
At this moment, Qiao Yun came in.
She wore a white high-necked thick sweater, her lovely chin buried in the collar, revealing tightly pressed lips and a pair of black eyes as lustrous as the stars.
Those black eyes fluttered a few times upon seeing Lu Zhanxing awake.
Lu Zhanxing gave Qiao Yun a smile, “Sister, why so silent? Am I too ugly now, did I scare you?”
Qiao Yun gently shook her head, then turned and left.
Lu Zhanxing: ?????
Could it be?
Did he scare his sister away with his ugliness??
Lu Zhanxing felt his life was suddenly devoid of light.
Actually…
Although Lu Zhanxing’s face was pale, it only added to his charm by giving him a frail and sickly aura.
It was for the craniotomy that they had his thick, curly black hair completely shaved off.
So now, he was “Bald Lu Zhanxing.”
Lu Zhanxing didn’t know yet that he had no hair; otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t have smiled at his sister just then; that would have been too silly.
Just two minutes later, Qiao Yun came back.
Behind her followed a whole group of people.
Upon entering, they started to research Lu Zhanxing right away.
“No problems, the compatibility is excellent. His brain is now like 8G internet speed, processing data very quickly.”
“Look how his brain activity is even faster than normal. I really want to cut it open and take a look.”
“He is the perfect experimental subject.”
Lu Zhanxing: “…”
Wait, do you guys still remember I am a patient?
What are these people talking about, why can’t I understand a word??
These aren’t doctors, they’re researchers, right?
Once they confirmed there were no issues with Lu Zhanxing, the group left just as they had come.
It was then that Qiao Yun approached, sitting on the chair next to Lu Zhanxing’s hospital bed.
She clasped her hands together, resting her delicate chin on her arms, slightly tilting her head and gazing at Lu Zhanxing unblinkingly with concern.
It was as if she feared he would fall asleep again any second.
Lu Zhanxing felt a sourness in his heart and the tip of his nose, and joked half-seriously, “Do I look that bad right now?”

Qiao Yun gently shook her head, “Handsome.”
“I’m fine now, don’t worry, okay?” Lu Zhanxing comforted her.
Qiao Yun pressed her lips together, appearing somewhat disheartened as she said, “I didn’t protect you well.”
“It’s my job to protect you, not yours to protect me.” Lu Zhanxing felt distressed; his sister was just too adorable.
Qiao Yun made an “oh” sound, then fell silent again, just looking at him.
Lu Zhanxing said with a sense of loss, “I had wanted to come back earlier to see you, I even bought a gift for you, but now I don’t know where it has gone.”
The gift was probably destroyed too.
“I received it. I really like it, thank you, brother.”
Qiao Yun took one of Lu Zhanxing’s long, handsome hands with her little one and squeezed it gently with just the right amount of pressure, trying to help relax his muscles.
Lu Zhanxing hummed comfortably.
All this time, Lu Jingzhi’s gaze was fixed on Lu Zhanxing’s hand, wishing that it was his hands that were being held.
“Then I’ll buy you an even better one in the future,” Lu Zhanxing mumbled, “I haven’t spent enough time with you yet, and I won’t let myself get into another accident.”
Qiao Yun looked up at Lu Zhanxing, her voice soft as if she had made a decision, “Will you still buy me gifts next year?”
“Of course, I can buy you one right away; you don’t have to wait until next year.”
Qiao Yun said, “I want you to buy me one every year.”
“No problem…” Lu Zhanxing’s words stopped abruptly, and he suddenly looked at Qiao Yun, unable to speak.
The determination in Qiao Yun’s eyes caused his emotions to surge.
He seemed to have realized something.
His nose turned sore, and he nearly burst into tears, “Alright, alright, I’ll buy you one every year, even when I’m seventy or eighty.”
Qiao Yun tilted her face up slightly and nodded gently, her demeanor so well-behaved it was heart-wrenching.
She had not wanted to take away the family of the original owner and was concerned that she and the members of the Lu Family would never be considered true relatives, which would likely lead to rejection upon discovering the truth.
Therefore, up until the day before Lu Zhanxing’s car accident, she had decided to leave the Lu Family next year.
She had even informed the lab to prepare next year’s research plans.
But Lu Zhanxing’s car accident disrupted her plans.
She realized that, setting aside all factors, she wanted to stay with the Lu Family.
Besides the calmness of being able to continue learning how to be a person, she didn’t want to be separated from her good friend for too long. She couldn’t bear to leave such a kind brother and the family that had been good to her…
Qiao Yun cast her eyes down, thinking to herself.
I’m sorry for taking your family, but I will treat them very well.
