C8 Equal Exchange

Lu Zijin did not finish her sentence, but she did not have the heart to wake Lu Yuanzheng up, so she decided to let him have a good rest.

They left the ward.

Lu Zijin's mood was still a little difficult to calm down. Lu Yuanzheng hated Koo Bailin to the extreme. If he knew the truth, with his temper, it was very likely that he would be so angry that he would have a heart attack.

When she thought of this, she was conflicted.

She looked up and met the attending doctor of the ICU. He waved for her to go to the demonstration room. When she went in, she found that Koo Bailin was also there.

"It's like this. Your father's condition is temporarily stable. " However, there is still a problem with his heart. He still needs to perform another surgery. This surgery will be more dangerous than the last one. But if you don't perform this operation, the possibility of your father having other illnesses in his heart will be very high in the future. So, weighing the pros and cons, I suggest you do it again. "

After the attending physician finished speaking, he handed her an agreement and asked her to sign it.

Lu Zijin carefully looked at Lu Yuanzheng's medical case. When she recalled his exhausted look on the hospital bed, she was very nervous.

"His current condition... is too weak." Lu Zijin hesitated.

"Yes." The attending doctor nodded and said, "We will let your father rest for a period of time. When his condition is suitable, we will perform this surgery."

Lu Zijin thought about it and signed her name on it. Suddenly, she felt the pressure on her shoulders.

On the way back, Lu Zijin looked out the window. She was looking at Koo Bailin who was driving from the corner of her eye.

Lu Yuanzheng had spent a lot of money in the hospital. If he were to receive surgery this time, he would also invite foreign experts. There would be a few million. However, during the entire process, Koo Bailin had acquiesced.

Why?

Because she was married to him, he had let go of his hatred for Lu Yuanzheng?

How was that possible? They had been together for so many years, but they had not warmed his heart. Could it be because of the child in her womb?

Her gaze fell on the marriage certificate that was still warm. The two of them leaned against each other and laughed so well together.

Lu Zijin looked at it and said in a strange manner: "Do you love me?"

Koo Bailin was stunned for a second and then sneered.

"It's good that you don't love me. I don't love you either." Lu Zijin forced herself to bow. Realizing that she had said something wrong, she casually put down the marriage certificate and looked out the window.

Koo Bailin sneered, "Lu Zijin, don't let your imagination run wild. I want the child in your womb, not you."

Hearing this, Lu Zijin's face turned pale when she heard this. Her heart hurt and she forced a smile, "One thing for another. It's a fair exchange."

Half a month ago, the way she looked at him was still tender.

But at this moment, there was a smile on her face but her eyes were cold.

She had changed a lot.

Koo Bailin opened his mouth but did not say anything. His chest felt inexplicably stuffy.

The atmosphere seemed to have become a little heavy.

Very quickly, they arrived at the Gu family's villa. When the car stopped in the yard, Koo Bailin suddenly said, "You only attended a charity dinner tonight with me. I'll send someone to pick you up at night." There was no sign of negotiation in his tone.

"Charity dinner?" Lu Zijin muttered and repeated.

She suddenly remembered that it was the annual charity night in Rongcheng. Lu Yuanzheng had organized this dinner by himself.

But why did she have to attend with him? Mrs Lu was already bankrupt. Why did she, a poor girl, go over there? To make a fool of herself? Or to make him show mercy?

The car stopped at the entrance of the Gu family's villa. She opened the door and got out of the car. She silently walked back.

At night, night fell.

Lu Zijin was brought to the hotel where the charity gala was held by the driver.

She looked out the window and saw that there were many distinguished guests gathered at the entrance of the hotel. There were many big shots among them. This was a local charity gala. Those who were qualified to attend also had local characteristics.

She looked at the wide red carpet in the middle of the road, and for some reason, she felt a little nervous.

This was the first time she had shown her face ever since she had fallen from the number one socialite in Rongcheng to a penniless princess. Those pitch-black cameras that looked like cannon barrels were intimidating.

But she had to go.

Lu Zijin took a deep breath, pushed open the car door, and walked towards the hotel.

The moment she appeared, she immediately attracted the attention of all the news media from all walks of life. The cameras that were originally aimed at each other crowded around her.

She was wearing a light purple silk dress. Her skin was white as if it was mixed with cow milk. Her hair was tied into a bun, and only a few strands were left. It made her face, which was the size of a palm, look even more exquisite.

"Miss Lu, may I ask if your father, Lu Yuanzheng, has harmed so many people? How can you still have the courage to come here?"

"Could it be that Miss Lu intends to donate all of her wealth to apologize for Lu Yuanzheng?"

"This charity banquet will be taken over by Mr. Koo Bailin. You were abandoned by him. This time, you are not here to cause trouble, are you?"

... ""

All kinds of malicious questions came, and their words became sharper and sharper.

Lu Zijin's face instantly turned pale. She felt as if she was being ruthlessly wrapped up, and her mind went blank. She only had one thought left, and that was to escape.

She retreated in fear. Facing the media that was constantly surrounding her, she was like a lonely and weak trapped beast.

At this moment, a large hand naturally placed on her waist, bringing with it a warm aura.

Koo Bailin's cold but polite voice sounded next to her ear. "Excuse me, please ask all media friends to pay attention to today's news related to charity."

"Didn't Mr. Koo abandon Miss Lu? Why are we together again today?" A female reporter did not give up.

Koo Bailin's voice turned cold. "If you ask any more irrelevant questions, I will ask you to leave."

The female reporter shrunk back. Koo Bailin was the host of this charity dinner. He was also a newly rich person in Rongcheng and had countless assets. She was just a small reporter.

Seeing this, the other reporters could not help but show fear. They immediately restrained themselves and made way for Koo Bailin.

Only then did Lu Zijin let out a sigh of relief. She felt that she was saved.

Koo Bailin pulled Lu Zijin and the two of them walked on the red carpet like a couple.

After entering the banquet hall, Lu Zijin almost saw her name at the special invitation table. On her left was Koo Bailin, and on the previous seat was Lu Yuanzheng's name.

Not only did he completely take over Lu Yuanzheng's company, he also took over the reputation and status that he had painstakingly built up over the years.

Lu Zijin lowered her eyes and hid the grief and indignation that lingered in her eyes as she quietly took a seat.

The charity gala began.

The host on the stage was full of enthusiasm. In addition, there were celebrities who took the lead to raise donations. Very quickly, the atmosphere in the banquet hall became lively.

It was just that the atmosphere was warm, and it was a little noisy.

Lu Zijin was already upset and upset. Although she was currently sitting peacefully without any expression on her face, in reality, her heart was already restless. She wanted to snatch the door and escape.

Koo Bailin seemed to notice that she was distracted. "Are you tired?"

Lu Zijin said, "I'm fine."

Koo Bailin smiled. His smile was very nice and cold. "Aren't you curious why I brought you to the charity party?"

"Why?" Of course Lu Zijin was curious.

Koo Bailin slowly said, "Tomorrow morning, the news of you being with me will spread throughout Rongcheng. Guess what other people will write about you? How will they write about me? "

Lu Zijin was stunned for a moment before she suddenly reacted.

He did it on purpose. He wanted her to see clearly that she was in dire straits.

Tomorrow morning, everyone in Rongcheng would feel that the daughter of the Lu Family loved vanity and abandoned her sick father. Koo Bailin, on the other hand, was a sincere and kind person.

Lu Zijin looked away and her eyes could not help but turn sour.

"Mr. Koo is really very elegant." She said it casually, but she felt like vomiting blood in her heart. She could only rejoice that Lu Yuanzheng was seriously ill and could not hear these words.

She forcefully endured the pain in her heart as her eyes fell on the stage.
