Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2694 - 2630: Was It Intentional?

Even they couldn't help but feel a pang of pity witnessing Miss Lu's current condition.

If Old Master Lu were to witness this, he would surely faint, wouldn't he?

"Old Lu..." Old Jiang stepped forward.

However, Old Master Lu waved him away, his gaze already fixed upon Lu Shuangshuang, who lay on the stretcher in the center of the room.

Upon seeing her, his eyes widened, his mouth agape in utter disbelief.

Could that person truly be his beloved granddaughter?

"Is this... is this Shuangshuang?"

Lu Shuangshuang, once a picture of beauty and grace, now bore swollen cheeks, dried blood at the corners of her mouth, and eyes so bruised and red that they likely couldn't be opened even if she were conscious.

Furthermore, her formerly dark and luxuriant long hair had been reduced to uneven tufts, with some areas completely bald, exposing the scalp as if afflicted by a severe skin condition.

The clothes she wore were undeniably hers, yet several areas were noticeably torn.

Old Master Lu felt a roaring in his head, his entire being consumed by unease.

Was she... was she alright?

Could it be... could it be that her honor had been violated?

At this moment, Chen Yiping rushed in, carrying a medical kit.

"Old Jiang, Old Lu, shall I examine Miss Lu now?"

Old Master Lu's senses returned. Forcibly suppressing the pain and anger churning in his heart, he spoke in a deep voice, "Are you suggesting we leave Shuangshuang lying here on the Jiang Family's hall floor, with so many people watching?"

Was the Jiang Family doing this deliberately?

No, it must be intentional!

Such a pitiable Lu Shuangshuang; they should have discreetly brought her back and immediately escorted her to her quarters.

Why, oh why, did they bring her back on a stretcher, in front of all these people, and reportedly, there were many onlookers at the front gate!

And now, they still leave her lying on the hall floor while members of the Jiang Family, both men and women, stand around and observe!

This is utterly outrageous!

Was the Jiang Family attempting to sever their ties with them?

"Old Master Lu, we were concerned you might wish to send Miss Lu to a foreign-funded hospital; her previous residence is quite far from here. Therefore, we wanted you to see her first, to avoid unnecessary back and forth and delay her treatment," Jiang Shiheng stated calmly.

Didn't Old Master Lu express a desire to go to a foreign-funded hospital earlier?

Now, he was using the foreign-funded hospital to silence him.

Old Master Lu paused, feeling as though a hand was pressing down on his chest full of anger, leaving him unable to articulate his feelings.

"Then, what is the meaning of having so many people gathered around!"

"Everyone is worried about Miss Lu, so upon hearing she had been rescued, they couldn't help but come to see her."

This was concern; was there anything wrong with being concerned?

"In that case, let's send Miss Lu to the hospital," Lu Junyou declared in a deep voice.

Jiang Shiheng nodded, "Alright. Yue Yang, have someone disperse the crowd outside."

What?

There were still people gathered outside?

If she were taken out now, wouldn't even more people witness Lu Shuangshuang's wretched state?

Lu Junyou gritted his teeth in secret, his temples throbbing.

"Since people are still gathered outside, let's first send Shuangshuang to her room!"

Old Master Lu now understood that the Jiang Family was retaliating. However, it was their prerogative to have found Lu Shuangshuang first.

In situations like these, those who discover something first naturally hold the advantage!
