At the hospital.
It took Granny Lu three hours to finish at the hospital. Her blood test results and her organ health was known now. When her test results were compared to last month’s, it didn’t look too good.
"All of you have to be mentally prepared." Holding the test results, he dropped his arms and glanced at everyone around him.
Lu Chengzhou and Lu Zhan stood in front and remained silent. The atmosphere in the corridor was extremely tense.
Second Old Master Lu stepped forward. "Elder Yu, judging from Old Madam’s current state, how much longer can she live?"
As soon as he mentioned this, everyone looked at Yu Zhongjing. Each of them was more concerned than the last. One year ago, the Lu family had been on the brink of collapse.
In the end, Lu Shangjin found Gu Mang to operate on Old Madam, which allowed her to recover.
When they heard Gu Mang say that she would be fine for three to five years, everyone was forced to suppress their restlessness and maintain their composure. Now that Old Madam was in a dire state, everyone had different thoughts.
Yu Zhongjing answered, "It’s hard to say. I will contact a neurology specialist and consult with him. We’ll try our best to stop anything from happening."
Everyone eyed each other.
...
In Yu Zhongjing’s office.
Lu Chengzhou sat facing him. "How long specifically?"
Yu Zhongjing answered him solemnly, "That’s really hard to say. But for now, I can still keep her illness under control. Thing’s won’t get worse for now."
Everything had happened too suddenly. Even Yu Zhongjing had not expected her condition to take a turn for the worse in just one year. Logically speaking, it should not have happened so quickly.
For a few seconds, the office was quiet. This silence was interrupted by the sound of a lighter.
Lu Chengzhou could not resist lighting a cigarette. "Don’t tell Gu Mang about this."
Yu Zhongjing was dazed. "What do you mean?"
Although Old Madam was in a bad state and there was not much hope left, his master wouldn’t be able to do much either. No one could escape from the cycle of life.
"Don’t tell her." Lu Chengzhou emphasized these words before getting up to leave.
