    Lu Xingzhi nced at the bruise left by a needle and nodded. Jiang Yao''s skin was indeed delicate, it


    could bruise easily just from a blood sample taken. Also, it seemed like she was more afraid of pain


    than other girls. Jiang Lei once told him that she was so delicate, she would cry even if her finger got


    pricked by a sewing needle.


    Therefore, the wounds that she endured this time were probably the most painful experience she ever


    had in her life.


    "The hospital gown doesn''t look good, my clothes still look better." Jiang Yao awkwardly exined.


    "Moreover, I know I''m fine and that I''ll surely be discharged this afternoon. I''m going to change back to


    my own clothes anyway, so isn''t it the same as doing it now?"


    Lu Xingzhi nodded and chuckled. Evidently, neen was the age for ady to start caring about her


    appearance more. Jiang Yao was no exception.


    However, he did not know that ady would only apply makeup for the man she loved. That''s why


    Jiang Yao particrly cared about her appearance in front of him.


    The summer''s morning sun was zing enough but it was not as sweltering as noon. They had a walk


    around the hospital building after they left the ward.


    The hospital was a ce to celebrate the newborn, treat the elderly and sick, and for some people, it


    was the ce to spend thest moments of their lives. It was a ce to bid farewell to the past and


    wee the future. That was why it was always busy and crowded with people from all walks of life


    with different emotions.


    In the hospital, you can see through people''s emotions at a nce and have a clear look at the people


    who have just parted with their loved ones.


    Jiang Yao withdrew her focus on people around her, turned around, and looked at Lu Xingzhi. To her


    surprise, he was looking at her too, and both their eyes met. Suddenly, Jiang Yao remembered a word


    called tacit'' and smiled at Lu Xingzhi.


    Lu Xingzhi stopped in his tracks abruptly. Possibly blinded by the sun or perhaps stunned by the


    gorgeous smile she gave him, Lu Xingzhi forgot to continue walking and he only stood straight while


    staring at her.


    Just as Jiang Yao predicted, the doctor had instructed the nurse to send her the medicine after lunch


    and notified her that she could be discharged.


    Lu Xingzhi asked Jiang Yao to wait for him at the ward as he called home. He asked for a driver to be


    sent to pick them up at the hospital. The weather was zing hot and he was not going to let Jiang Yao


    be exposed to sunlight because her sweat might remove the ointment on her back.


    After she was discharged from the hospital, Jiang Yao felt rejuvenated from head to toe. She was not a


    fan of the smell of the hospital or the overly narrow beds. Lu Xingzhi could not even straighten his legs


    once hey on it.


    The driver brought them straight back to the Lu family''s house in town. Zhao Zhuangzong had been


    caught and the cops came to town to arrest him. The Zhao family did not have any time to visit the


    town, as they were probably busy finding ways to get Zhao Zhuangzong out of jail.


    Lu Xingzhi''s parents and the four members of the Jiang family were all waiting in the house. Jiang Yao


    was weed with open arms once she stepped into the house. Jiang Lei could not even wait to wrap


    his little sister in his arms and to check if his sister had lost a few pounds after this tragedy had


    happened to her. If Jiang Yao had not grown up and she was still four or five years old, Jiang Jie and


    Jiang Lei would definitely ask her to show them her injuries. Only then would they stop worrying about


    her.


    "Luck is on our side! Luck is on our side! Our Yaoyao will be blessed by good luck after that mishap!"

    Mrs. Jiang held Jiang Yao''s hand while wishing a whole lot of blessings. She even sprinkled some


    water boiled with pomelo skin on her. She believed that by doing that, it could chase away all the bad


    spirits and people. It was one of the vigers'' beliefs and Jiang Yao did not avoid it at all. She only


    bowed down and gave Mrs. Jiang a bear hug after she was done with the ritual. "Mom, there''s nothing


    to worry about. I''m fine."


    "Fine! Fine! Fine! How could that be fine? You almost gave me a heart attack!" Jiang Lei raised his


    hand and was about to smack Jiang Yao''s head just like how he used to do when he reprimanded her


    back when they were kids.


    However, he could sense a murderous aura after he raised his hand. He looked back and saw his


    brother-inw ring at his hand like a fierce tiger. Jiang Lei withdrew his hand immediately and tried


    to cover it up by scratching his head awkwardly.
