The second young master of the Lu family?
Lu Qi raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he heard this term of address coming out from Cheng Ling’s mouth.
“Okay, then I’ll tell you the reason now. I noticed that recently you don’t seem to be in a good mood, so I wanted to take you out to relax.”
The music playing on the Bluetooth in the car suddenly stopped. Cheng Ling seemed to be able to hear her own heart thumping. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦
She turned around and saw that Lu Qi was also looking at her. Their eyes met.
“What happened to you recently? Did something happen to you at school? You can tell me.”
Lu Qi did not mention anything about the photo. He did not want to be too direct.
Cheng Ling shook her head. She was very touched to hear that Lu Qi cared about her so much. However, she could not say anything about the photo at the moment, nor did she have anything to say.
“It’s nothing. Maybe it’s because of the weather. I’m just a little depressed. But, thank you. I feel very much better today.”
Seeing that Cheng Ling still did not tell him the real reason, Lu Qi was a little disappointed, but he did not show it.
The two of them arrived at a very popular local hot pot restaurant. Lu Qi seemed to have planned it beforehand. He had already booked the seats and the waiter led the two into the private room.
After Cheng Ling ordered the dishes that she wanted to eat, she also ordered a few easily digestible and nourishing food for Lu Qi.
Lu Qi was indeed very good at taking care of people. Although he could not eat the food from the hot pot, he would still help Cheng Ling cook the food. After he finished cooking, he would put the dishes into Cheng Ling’s bowl.
For the entire dinner, Cheng Ling was served as a princess.
The two of them chatted happily during the meal. The content was nothing more than work and studies, as well as some patients that Cheng Ling had encountered.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere tonight was too good. When they talked about the time when Lu Qi was poisoned, Lu Qi finally decided to reveal the doubts in his heart.
“Cheng Ling, do you know why I approached you in the beginning?”
Cheng Ling looked up from the steaming steam of the hot pot. The spicy pot was very spicy. Cheng Ling’s cheeks were a little red, and her eyes were watery.
At that moment, Lu Qi felt that Cheng Ling’s face was even more familiar.
“Why?” Cheng Ling asked.
“Actually, when I was poisoned, I escaped alone. Then, I was saved by a girl. She took care of me for a few days. But when I woke up later, I found out Lu Xiu had already found me and brought me back to the Lu family for treatment. As for the girl who saved me, there was no news after that.”
The hotpot restaurant was very noisy. Even though they were in the private room, the sound of the customers talking and the sound of the bowls and chopsticks colliding kept reaching their ears. However, Cheng Ling was able to eliminate the noise and heard Lu Qi’s words clearly.
“And then?”
Lu Qi looked at Cheng Ling’s reaction and continued, “And then, until this year, I saw you at the Cheng family’s banquet. When I first saw you, I felt that you were somewhat familiar. Then, when I came to the back mountain and saw the herbs you planted, I suspected even more if the little girl who saved me back then was you. It’s just that I’ve always been very vague about that memory which some fragments were missing. Thus I was not sure. Moreover, I thought... If that girl back then was really you...”
Speaking up to this point, Lu Qi actually felt a little nervous. The hand that was placed on the table clenched into a fist. “Then, you should be able to recognize me. You’ll remember that incident, right?”
In an instant, Cheng Ling was so shocked by Lu Qi’s words that she didn’t know what to say. She originally thought that the feeling of familiarity towards Lu Qi was just an illusion because she had the same thought. If she had really saved Lu Qi back then, then Lu Qi would definitely have the memories. However, during this period of time, Lu Qi had remained silent, so Cheng Ling thought that everything was just an illusion. She didn’t expect that it was actually true.
She put down her chopsticks and did not plan to hide it from Lu Qi.
“Actually, the first time I saw you, I also felt very familiar. I also remember that I saved you, but my memories of that period of time were also very fragmented. I wasn’t sure, so I did not mention it.”
Lu Qi frowned. This was too much of a coincidence. Cheng Ling had saved him, but the memories of this period of time between him and Cheng Ling seemed to have been purposely erased by someone.
But no matter what, he had finally cleared a doubt.
“I didn’t expect that the person who saved me back then was you. I’ve been looking for you. At first, I thought that the person who saved me was your sister, Cheng Xiao.. But after seeing you, I knew that it was you.”
