Start at the pet store

The two had a good time when they were in junior high school. Later, Meng Qi transferred to another school in the third year of junior high school. After that, they lost contact. I didn't expect to meet here.

Moreover, even after so many years, the two recognized each other at a glance.

Meng Qi immediately stood up and patted Lu Jingxing hard: "Have you returned to Longan? Or have you always been in Longan?"

Lu Jingxing was more anxious about Ji Ling's father. He stopped chatting with him and said directly: "I will talk to you later. I heard that my girlfriend's father was sent here after a car accident last night. I asked you to deal with it. How is he now?"

"Surname Ji?" Meng Qi immediately reacted when he talked about professional matters.

"Yes, surname Ji, in his forties." Lu Jingxing nodded quickly.

"Your girlfriend's father?" Meng Qi asked instead of answering.

Lu Jingxing nodded, looking at Meng Qi's expression, his heart kept sinking.

Meng Qi sighed and shook his head: "He has been admitted to the ICU, but the situation is not optimistic. We have also notified the family. Let's see if he can survive until the last meeting." After that, he patted Lu Jingxing gently: "My condolences, he was injured too badly. He was already unconscious when he came, and he must have drunk a lot of alcohol. He was drunk driving. This is what I know about his condition." "Did he have a car accident or was he injured while driving?" He came directly to the hospital and didn't know the situation at the time. "I heard that he fell off his electric bike, or someone passed by and found him. He called his family and it should be his wife. She didn't want to come. Later, I heard from the police that it seemed to be a second marriage. You may have to ask the police for the specific situation." Meng Qi said what he roughly understood. As an emergency doctor, he usually only cares about the patient's condition and doesn't know about the family. He accidentally heard the police say this when they called and found out about Ji's father's condition. Moreover, Ji's father is no longer with him now. He has been transferred to the ICU. Logically, he is not responsible. However, because the other person was Lu Jingxing, he stood up: "Come on, I'll take you there to see."

Lu Jingxing followed him mechanically, and he was thinking about how to tell Ji Ling.

He should ask her to come back as soon as possible. From what Meng Qi said, this might be the last time they meet.

If she doesn't come, she will definitely regret it many years later.

But, he doesn't know if she is okay now that he is not with her?

Thinking all the way, he followed Meng Qi to the outside of the ICU somewhat woodenly.

You need to change clothes to visit. Lu Jingxing is not a close relative, so he does not meet the visiting conditions.

He pointed to the second bed inside and said: "That's Ji Xiaodong, is it him?"

Lu Jingxing looked where his finger pointed, then shook his head: "I don't know."

He had only seen him from a distance twice, and he had never even dealt with Ji's father. Even if he met him on the road, he might not recognize him. What's more, he is wearing an oxygen mask and his head is bandaged like a mummy.

In this state, he probably wouldn't even recognize Ji Ling.

But the name is correct, it should be correct.

Meng Qi nodded: "It's normal that he can't be recognized in this state. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Lu Jingxing shook his head again: "Forget it, I won't go in. I'll go call my girlfriend. She's still in BJ..." Without Ji Ling's consent, she didn't want to tell Meng Qi about her situation, although he might not be interested in listening.

"Well, you call, and come back as soon as possible. When the family members come, they need to sign to see whether to continue treatment or give up. In other words, I'm telling you that in his case, it may not make much sense to continue treatment. The best possible thing is that he will be a vegetative state... Well, he is not under my responsibility now. I shouldn't say this to the family members. Just think about it in your heart..." Although Meng Qi hasn't seen Lu Jingxing for so many years, he still thinks he is still the best buddy he used to be.

So, he couldn't help but say this, which might lead to a lawsuit.

Lu Jingxing patted his shoulder. He seemed to be half a head taller than Meng Qi, and it looked very handy to put his hand on his shoulder.

This feeling is exactly the same as when I was in school.

"Brother, thank you. I feel more confident now. However, I'll see what my girlfriend wants. If she still wants treatment, I'll support her." Lu Jingxing tried hard.

"Of course, if you need me, just tell me. I'll do my best. Although I haven't been in this hospital for a long time, the dean is my uncle, so I can still have a say." Meng Qi nodded.

"Doctor Meng, there's an emergency case of trauma. I want you to go over." A little nurse ran over in a hurry.

Meng Qi said, "Oh," and Lu Jingxing nodded quickly: "Go quickly, I'll find you later."

"Okay, you can wait for me in my office and ask for my phone number. I can get off work after I finish this one. I'm on the night shift anyway." Meng Qi said as he walked.

Lu Jingxing waved at him and watched him disappear at the end of the corridor.

He took a deep breath, picked up his phone and walked to the outdoor rest area, then dialed Ji Ling's number: "Hello..."

The phone was answered in seconds: "Hello..."

Both spoke at the same time.

After a moment of silence, Ji Ling, who was as clear as a mirror, had already figured out the answer. She hesitated for two seconds and said, "I've packed everything. Let's go now..."

"Okay, I booked a ticket for you before I came here, the earliest flight..." He raised his hand to check the time: "Eat something now and get ready to go, it will take off at 10:10."

"Okay, thank you..." Ji Ling said very straightforwardly. At this time, she didn't know what else to say except thank you.

Too many words of thanks are hypocritical.

As soon as Lu Jingxing booked the ticket, she received a message.

She knew why he didn't say it. The reason why he booked this ticket was not to morally blackmail her to go back, but because he didn't want to leave any regrets.

In case she wanted to go back, he booked the earliest ticket for her. If she still couldn't let go of the past, then he wouldn't feel sorry for the ticket, although it was a little expensive.

He understood her, and she knew him.

Because of him, she didn't seem to be so scared.

She went out quickly. Maybe this is a science student. After the panic of receiving the call at the beginning, she couldn't see anything on her face now. She sent a message to her class teacher as quickly as possible to ask for leave, and then bought breakfast before taking a taxi to the airport.

Lu Jingxing also said hello to the store. At least he would not go to the store in the morning. He planned to go to the police station to understand the situation first. Then wait for Ji Ling to come back.

The person here has been admitted to the ICU. He thought about it. He did not take the initiative to pay the medical expenses. The family members over there have not come yet. He has already said hello to Meng Qi. At present, the hospital will not withdraw the person from the ICU because of non-payment.

He will understand it first and then talk about it.

It is not too late to decide after Ji Ling comes back. After all, Ji's father's family situation is a bit complicated.

With this thought, he went directly to the police station.

When he arrived at the station, he was received by another police officer who had worked with Officer Hu before.

Seeing him asking about Ji's father's situation, he was a little surprised: "Are you an acquaintance? Relative?"

There was nothing to hide in front of the police. Lu Jingxing briefly told about his and Ji Ling's situation, as well as Ji Ling and Ji's father's situation.

The police officer took him to the office.

"Oh, it's her father. I informed her. I didn't expect it was her. What a coincidence. However, Ji Xiaodong's condition is not optimistic. Have you been to the hospital?" The police officer poured a glass of water for Lu Jingxing.

Lu Jingxing came out in a hurry, but he didn't even drink a sip of water. He took a sip of the water cup and nodded: "I have been there and asked the doctor who examined him. As you said, the situation is not optimistic."

"Yes, and the trouble is that he got drunk and fell. We came back and checked the surveillance to see the situation at that time. He was injured at 3:08 in the morning. The person who found him and called the police found him and called us at 3:30. It didn't take long to find him in the hospital, but he fell too hard, so..." The police officer said it in quite detail.

This is also his job. Besides, they have dealt with Lu Jingxing more than once, and he has nothing to hide about this convenience.

Lu Jingxing nodded.

"Now he's in the ICU, and we've notified his family. We left a colleague there. You came here directly, so you may not have met our colleague, but I have something to tell you..." The police officer seemed a little hesitant.

"Don't worry, I won't say much." Lu Jingxing heard the implication of his words. There are some things that the police know, but if they tell the family members directly, it will have a bad impact.

Lu Jingxing understood his difficulties. The other party told him because they knew each other, so of course he had to solve their worries.

"Openly, according to our understanding, the reason why Xiao Ji's father drove drunk in the middle of the night should be because of a quarrel between her father and stepmother. We can't say the specifics. I heard that they are getting a divorce. So, if there is no third party involved in the drunk driving, if her stepmother decides whether to treat or not... you have to think about this matter." For the police officers, they have seen too much human nature, so he still didn't say it too directly, that is, about why the couple quarreled.

Besides, it would become gossip. He knew that Lu Jingxing was quite capable. If he wanted to know about this kind of thing, he would naturally know it by asking more. He couldn't say too much, so it was best to stop at the right time.

"Okay, thank you very much. I will find out clearly and let Ji Ling decide for herself." Lu Jingxing bowed slightly to express his gratitude.

"Hey, it's okay. This is my job. Besides, Brother Hu also said hello. Let us pay more attention to your Chongai Youjia. By the way, is the little girl coming back? I heard that she was admitted to Tsinghua University, right?" The police officer should have heard from Officer Hu, so he was also impressed by Ji Ling. After all, there are only so many years in Long'an that can be admitted to Tsinghua University.

"Thank you, thank you, she is ready to come back. The flight is after ten o'clock. I will go to the airport to pick her up later. It's really troublesome for you." Lu Jingxing thanked again.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and when they came out, Lu Jingxing felt more calm.

He had handled his parents' funeral affairs personally, so it wasn't that he was cold-blooded. After listening to what Meng Qi said, he actually had a plan in mind. Of course, this was his idea, not Ji Ling's, but he understood Ji Ling, and what he thought should be what Ji Ling thought.

With a plan in mind, he became more calm.

He called Cheng Li, who he didn't contact much, but he must be reliable for news.

This is a person he met by accident. After getting along with him for a few times, he knew that this person was well-informed in Long'an. There was almost nothing he couldn't find out, and he was also reliable. He would never find out what he shouldn't know.

Whatever you want to know, as long as the price is right, the answer will satisfy you.

It is similar to the mysterious organization that specializes in finding out information from both the black and white sides.

However, to activate him, either the price is high or the relationship is strong.

Lu Jingxing happened to have both of these.

However, although Lu Jingxing has a big business, he is actually a relatively simple person. He rarely goes to Cheng Li. The only time he went to him was when he opened a cat food factory last time and asked him to help check the relationship between several shareholders.

This kind of thing is a piece of cake for Cheng Li. He investigated it clearly in less than a day.

Lu Jingxing knew the family situation of Ji Ling's father. It was actually a bit of a waste of talent to ask Cheng Li to check it, but he didn't have time now.

According to the police officer, there must be some other reasons for the quarrel between her father and her stepmother, so it is better for him to know the situation.

He did not say much to Cheng Li, but sent a message to Ji Ling's father: "Check his recent situation."

Cheng Li replied OK, and the two did not say anything more.

When Lu Jingxing came here, he took a taxi and parked the car in the store. Because he was in a hurry, he did not have time to pick it up. Thinking that he would pick up Ji Ling later, it was close to the store. He looked at the time and rushed to the store.

When he returned to the hospital, he remembered that Meng Qi asked him to find him. He was in a hurry to go to the police station, so how could he forget such an important thing.

He didn't know if he had finished get off work.

He parked the car and immediately walked towards Meng Qi's office.

He knocked on the door.

"Come in..." It was Meng Qi's voice.

"Are you not off work yet?" As soon as Lu Jingxing entered the door, he saw Meng Qi leaning on the office chair, who was a little tired.

"I'm waiting for you. My assistant said you didn't come..." Meng Qi sat up straight and said.

"Sorry, I just went to the police station. You look so tired. Why don't you get off work first? My business is not urgent anyway..." He felt sorry for his buddy. Fortunately, he was young, but it was obvious that he should not have rested for more than a day or two.

"It's okay. Save my phone number. I have said hello to the attending doctor. If you have any questions, just go to him directly. His surname is Tan. He is our chief doctor. If you have any questions, just ask him." Meng Qi wrote his phone number on the medical form, tore it off and handed it to Lu Jingxing.
