Chapter 36: A Little Something Growing in His Lungs!

Through the visual glasses, Lu Feng successively viewed the examination results for Lin Xuecheng and Hu Quan.

“The subject is generally healthy and shows no serious illness. However, due to prolonged sleep deprivation and overwork, he suffers from minor conditions such as night sweats and excessively oily skin.”

Lin Xuecheng had no major health problems. The device merely indicated several minor ailments caused by insufficient sleep and prolonged exhaustion.

It could even detect such minor conditions and identify their causes. Lu Feng was astonished. This Shield Detection Watch was truly remarkable.

“The subject is showing signs of a problem. Something appears to be growing in his lungs. His complexion is pale and dry. If he also suffers from occasional coughing, he is advised to visit a hospital for a thorough examination as soon as possible!”

Lu Feng was slightly taken aback when he saw Hu Quan’s results.

Within the visual glasses, lines of light outlined Hu Quan’s body. A red mark appeared over his lungs, where a tiny object had formed. Beside it was a label: Abnormal growth detected.

Clearly, something had begun growing in Hu Quan’s lungs, though it was still at an early stage and extremely small.

Hu Quan and Lin Xuecheng discussed the investment for a while before turning to Lu Feng with a smile.

“Boss Lu, when will your tea factory open? I’ll be there to show my support!”

Lu Feng replied with a smile, “The relevant procedures have already been completed. It should be ready in a little while.”

Lin Xuecheng added, “Boss Lu, please let us know when the time comes. I’ll accompany General Manager Hu.”

The county attached great importance to Hu Quan as an investor.

Although he was currently investing only two hundred million yuan, that did not mean two hundred million was all he had.

If they could persuade him to establish a lasting connection with Youcheng, they would have opportunities to introduce him to various local projects and resources. If he found any of them promising, he might well invest more money.

Thus, for a certain period of time, the county’s preferences would revolve around whatever interested General Manager Hu.

After the two rounds of Clearwind Tea had been brewed, evening had nearly arrived. Hu Quan rose, thoroughly satisfied.

“County Chief Lin, it’s about time we headed back and looked over the documents again.”

He then turned to Lu Feng and invited him, “Boss Lu, why don’t you join us for dinner at a restaurant tonight?”

Lu Feng hurriedly declined. “I’m sorry, General Manager Hu, but I have to entertain my girlfriend’s mother this evening.”

“Haha, that really is one of life’s most important matters. We’ll take a rain check, then.”

Hu Quan laughed, clearly understanding. He then invited Lin Xuecheng to leave with him.

Lu Feng accompanied them downstairs. Once they had stepped out of the restaurant, he reminded Hu Quan, “General Manager Hu, your complexion looks rather dry and pale. If you’ve also been coughing occasionally lately, there may be a minor problem with your lungs. I suggest you have them checked at a hospital.”

“What?”

Hu Quan froze.

He had indeed been coughing from time to time recently. His throat would itch whenever it happened, and he had assumed it was due to the change in environment.

But how had Boss Lu known?

For no apparent reason, Hu Quan became distracted and uneasy.

Lin Xuecheng also looked at Lu Feng in puzzlement. Yet judging by his expression, Boss Lu clearly had not been making things up.

After getting into the car, Lin Xuecheng said to Hu Quan, “General Manager Hu, why don’t we stop by the county hospital for an examination? I can make a call. They should be able to see you quickly.”

“Alright.”

Hu Quan nodded almost absently.

After all, this was his first time meeting Lu Feng, and the man’s sudden warning had left him deeply unsettled.

Lin Xuecheng took out his phone and called the county hospital, then accompanied Hu Quan there.

When Lu Feng returned to the teahouse, he became curious and used the Shield Detection Watch to examine the other young women working there as well.

His curiosity about the device was growing by the minute.

He soon learned that the other women were all in good health. Unlike Little Yao, they were also completely natural and had nothing artificial enhancing their figures.

“Excuse me, do you still have any Clearwind Tea?”

A beautiful woman who looked to be under thirty entered and asked the question.

One of the girls immediately went over to serve her. “Yes, ma’am. How many boxes of Clearwind Tea would you like?”

Lu Feng glanced at the woman and instinctively pointed the detection watch at her as well.

She had an excellent figure and carried herself with a certain air, but she clearly did not look like a businesswoman. Her manner of dress was far too provocative.

Even a strong, successful woman who dressed fashionably would not usually flaunt such a deliberately seductive appearance.

The next moment, Lu Feng stared in astonishment at the data displayed in the visual glasses. There was something abnormal around the woman’s private parts. What was that ring-shaped object?

After a moment of surprise, he thought of the circular accessory used by actresses in certain foreign films.

That was quite something. She had actually gone out in public wearing one of those.

“I’ll take two boxes,” the woman said, adding, “And don’t forget the receipt.”

The fact that she wanted an official receipt also hinted at her possible identity. She was probably someone’s secretary, mistress, or something of the sort.

Lu Feng wondered whether she was indulging in such behavior of her own accord, or whether some lecherous man behind her was holding a remote control.

He could not be bothered to care. He returned to his office, where Yang Qingxue and the others were still waiting.

When he entered, he saw that Lin Jiajia had already taken a seat at the tea table and was brewing tea for Chen Fen and Yang Qingxue.

Lu Feng was not surprised that she knew how to make tea. She worked in building-materials sales, after all. In the south, a salesperson who could not brew tea for a client was hardly qualified.

After Lu Feng sat down, Lin Jiajia poured him a cup with unusual courtesy. Her attitude was completely different from before.

To be honest, Lu Feng could not be bothered with Lin Jiajia. She was merely Yang Qingxue’s friend, unlike Chen Fen, who was Yang Qingxue’s mother.

He had formed a poor impression of the woman, and that was not something he could change overnight.

When Lu Feng disliked someone, he did not force himself to greet them with a smile.

Still, he used the Shield Detection Watch to examine Yang Qingxue and her mother. Both were in excellent health, with no signs of illness, which put his mind at ease.

After night fell, Lu Feng treated Chen Fen and the others to dinner at an upscale restaurant on the plaza. Only after the meal did he escort them back to Yang Qingxue’s dormitory.

Since Chen Fen had come all the way to Youcheng, she would naturally spend the night with her daughter. She also had a few private matters to discuss with her.

As soon as they entered the bedroom, she said to her daughter, “Qingxue, when will Lu Feng’s mother be discharged? Let me know when the time comes. I’ll go with you to bring her home.”

Her previous attitude toward Lu Feng had been guided entirely by a mother’s instinct. Now, she naturally wanted to build a good relationship with Lu Feng’s family—for her daughter’s sake.

If her daughter eventually married Lu Feng, she did not want her to become caught between her husband’s family and her own.

How many women had ended up divorced because they failed to handle conflicts between their marital and parental families?

“Alright!”

Yang Qingxue nodded happily.

It was something she had been looking forward to for a long time.

Chen Fen leaned close to her daughter’s ear and lowered her voice.

“Also, after I leave tomorrow, go help Lu Feng arrange his new home. You need to prepare the bedding, daily necessities, and some greenery. As a woman, you can’t just be a pretty ornament.”

“Most importantly, the next time you’re together in private, don’t let Lu Feng use protection. He doesn’t look like the kind of man who would abandon you, so it would be best if you got pregnant…”

“Mom, why are you saying things like that?”

When Chen Fen began discussing such embarrassing matters, Yang Qingxue blushed and pulled the quilt over her face.

Although she and Lu Feng had been intimate more than once, she was still easily embarrassed.

Chen Fen sighed. “You already have a boyfriend, yet you’re still so shy whenever you hear something like this…”

Time passed.

The following day.

Yang Qingxue got up early and took Chen Fen to the bus station. Chen Fen had matters of her own to attend to back in her township and had taken leave to make this trip.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuecheng had already gone to work. After making a few arrangements, he went to pick up Hu Quan and accompanied him to the county hospital.

The previous day, a few words from Boss Lu had made General Manager Hu so anxious that he went to the county hospital for an examination. Because Lin Xuecheng had made arrangements in advance, the hospital would have the results ready that morning.

Still, there probably was not anything seriously wrong. General Manager Hu looked perfectly healthy.
