Chapter 639 - 622 Discharged from Hospital
Lu Jiaxin saw him looking energetic and said, "It’s too late today. We’ll handle your discharge tomorrow. Hospital beds are in short supply, so let’s not occupy public resources."
Although this is a high-class ward, people with connections can stay here. When the time comes, a regular ward will be freed up.
Lu Hongjun asked with concern, "Are you really okay?"
"Didn’t Shanzi tell you?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Hongjun wilted. Returning the house is a minor issue; losing the pension is truly a matter of life and death for him. Although his daughter has money, their relationship... the days ahead are likely to be hard.
Seeing his expression, Lu Jiaxin asked, "What, distressed over the pension and the house? If you’d known it would come to this, why act in the first place?"
Lu Hongjun hung his head without speaking. At times like this, saying anything is wrong; it’s better to listen quietly and get less scolding.
Lu Jiaxin was hungry, only wanting to eat and not argue. She checked her watch; it was half past six: "It’s getting late. We’re going out to eat, and we’ll be back in the morning to handle your discharge."
Lu Hongjun hoped for discharge too, not just to escape the daily smell of disinfectant but also because pretending to be confused was exhausting: "Jiaxin, after discharge, I want to live in Shichahai."
Lu Jiaxin refused: "The Shichahai is under my name, but Aunt bought the house and paid for the renovations. She’s living there now, so you can’t move in."
Lu Hongjun said, "Gou Dan and his siblings are always fighting, making it unbearable. Living with them, I can’t rest well, and my recovery is slow."
Lu Jiaxin said, "Then move to Chaoyang. I’ll hire two caregivers for you, rotating to care for you, and an auntie to do laundry, cook, and clean."
