Chapter 9: The Golden Finger Appears
"Where is this?" Lu Li opened his eyes and asked somewhat puzzled.
But consciousness slowly recovered, and Lu Li finally saw clearly where he was, and his memories before fainting also slowly revived.
"Damn, you're really ruthless, and with this small body of yours, aren't you a bit too fragile?" Lu Li complained, but then remembered the bookworm's personality and it all made sense.
"I also don't know how my parents are doing?" Later, Lu Li started to worry about his parents again. After crossing over, he had slowly adapted to his current identity.
Lu Di didn't know how long he had been unconscious, and what had happened afterwards. In fact, his injury wasn't that serious, he just got a concussion from the impact and fainted. He touched the back of his head which was already scabbed over, it still hurt a bit, but it was nothing serious.
"Ah, I'll go see Dad first." Lu Li thought for a moment and then got out of bed.
"A Li, you're awake?" Just as Lu Li was thinking of getting out of bed, he heard a voice full of surprise and delight. Who else could it be but his own mom?
"Ah, mom, you're here." Lu Li greeted, lifting up the quilt and preparing to get out of bed.
Zhang Wenhui saw Lu Li's movement and was startled, running over to press down on Lu Li: "A Li, your injury hasn't healed yet, what are you getting up for?"
"Mom, I just got a little hurt, it's nothing." Lu Li said casually.
"How can that be, the doctor said you suffered a brain injury and need to rest and observe carefully. So just stay put for me, you don't know how scared mom was that day." As she spoke, Zhang Wenhui's eyes turned red.
"Mom, it's okay, don't cry. I'm fine, aren't I? I just won't get up." Lu Li saw his mom about to cry again and could only force a bitter smile, but in his heart he felt very distressed.
Parents are always the ones who love themselves the most, in this life and the next. It's just that I don't know how parents on Earth would react to hearing bad news about their own children, they must be very sad. But Lu Li is also helpless, wanting to return to Earth to fulfill his filial duties is no longer possible.
"By the way, mom, you and dad are okay, what happened afterwards?" Lu Li asked, putting aside her thoughts.
"Dad and mom are fine, this time, thanks to you." Zhang Wenhui heard Lu Li's words and also collected her emotions, starting to tell Lu Li about the course of events.
Lu Li only then realized that the impact of this method was even greater than he had imagined. Originally, Lu Li just wanted his dad to get back his wages and receive fair treatment.
But unexpectedly, even the property of Yaha Real Estate was confiscated, and the general manager of Yaha Real Estate had to go to jail. And what's more unexpected is that a director of Huqing City Public Security Bureau was also implicated. At first, Lü Lì thought that Yaha Real Estate just bribed a few small police officers.
Lu Yanxin will be discharged from hospital in another half month, according to Zhang Wenhui.
Although the result was beyond his expectation, Lu Li felt a great sense of relief and satisfaction, thinking that he had also done justice for many migrant workers. In his previous life, when Lu Li saw such reports, he would only vent his anger online as a typical angry youth, but now he truly felt relieved from the bottom of his heart, after all, this time it was something related to his own family.
"Right, mom, I'll go back to school tomorrow. Look, my college entrance exam is coming up soon and it's not good if I fall behind." Lu Li felt a lot more at ease after knowing the result. But saying that he was worried about falling behind in his studies was just an excuse. To be honest, Lu Li didn't want to go back to school, but he even less wanted to stay in the hospital. If he had to choose between the two, Lu Li would rather go back to school.
"Don't worry about school, I've already called your class teacher and explained the situation. Your class teacher has approved a week's leave for you, and said that the new lesson has ended, so you don't have to worry about delaying your studies, just focus on recovering from your injury and then return to school." Upon hearing that Lu Li was going back to school, Zhang Wenhui immediately became anxious. He was afraid that something would happen to his precious son.
Lu Li could feel Zhang Wenhui's concern for herself, and seeing Zhang Wenhui's resolute attitude, she knew she couldn't persuade her, so she compromised.
"Lizi, you're okay!" Lu Li was saying to Zhang Wenhui when a surprised cry suddenly came from outside the door.
Lu Li knew who it was as soon as he heard the shout. He turned his head and took a look, and indeed, if it wasn't Jiang You, then who else could it be?
"Soy sauce, this is a hospital, keep your voice down." Lu Li saw the genuine smile on Jiang You's face and naturally knew that Jiang You cared about him. He was happy but still didn't forget to scare Jiang You a little.
As expected, Jiang Youyi heard this and shrunk his neck: "I'm not happy to see you wake up? You don't know, after I heard about your situation from Lao Ban, I was so worried. Now that I see you're awake, I can finally relax."
"Alright, aren't you supposed to be in class today? What brings you here?" Lu Li stored Jiang You's concern in his heart, but he didn't pretend anymore. He was never good at expressing emotions anyway.
"I asked for leave from our class teacher, and unexpectedly, he was very straightforward this time. He listened to me saying that I came to see you, and directly approved my leave. By the way, all the classmates in our class are worried about you, and they entrusted me to bring their concerns."
"Oh, okay, you go back and thank everyone for their concern on my behalf. I should be able to return to class next week." Lu Li was also deeply moved by this, as everyone was still at the age of 17 or 18, and had not yet experienced the cunning and deceit of society, and were very innocent.
Lu Li, who had experienced past life, knew that such pure and true emotions were hard to come by, so he was also very moved.
"Alright, you two chat here, I'll go to your dad's room and tell him you're awake." Zhang Wenhui saw the two chatting happily, so she went to Lu Yanshen's ward.
After Zhang Wenhui left, the two of them chatted even more happily. Especially Jiang You, who was originally a chatterbox and often found excuses to chat with Lu Li during class. Of course, in the past, bookworms like Lu Li basically didn't pay much attention to Jiang You during class, but were slightly better after class.
Although Lu Li is no longer the same as before, he doesn't say much either. Most of the time it's Jiang You talking and Lu Li listening. However, with his past life experience, Lu Li naturally knows when to interject a few words, which makes Jiang You even more enthusiastic.
"Oh no, it's almost noon, I have to hurry back. That stingy old class monitor only gave me half a day off." Just as Jiang You was getting excited, he suddenly slapped his forehead and said with a lingering tone.
Lu Li couldn't help but laugh at Jiang You's appearance and said with a smile: "Alright, you'd better hurry back now."
"Alright, I'll be off then. Liz, take good care of your injury and when you're back, I'll help you catch up on schoolwork." Jiang You said with a smile before heading to another room to bid farewell to Lu Yanxin and Zhang Wenhui, then left.
Lu Li heard this sentence and couldn't help but laugh. With Jiang You like this, he still had to give himself a refresher course, relying on his book-smart memory to teach Jiang You was just barely enough. However, this kind of life was also quite interesting.
Ludie smiled for a while before regaining her composure and began thinking about that strange dream.
Just now, Zhang Wenhui and Jiang You didn't think carefully about it yet, but now he can clearly remember what he saw in his previous life. It's not that he remembers the main plot, but every word, even every punctuation mark is remembered clearly.
What's more, Lu Li can even recall the detailed scores of the music he listened to, the detailed scripts and scenes of the movies and TV shows he watched.
"This..."
Lu Li was so shocked by this discovery that she couldn't speak a word.
But after a while, Lu Li became excited. In the previous life, most of the people who crossed over had golden fingers, but he was always puzzled why he didn't have one and even mistakenly thought that his memory was his golden finger.
But now, Ni Ma's memory is way weaker compared to these.
Ludie seems to have seen a bright future beckoning him, so don't be too good later? Hehehe, Ludie is already a bit disoriented now, his current expression is a silly smile, and if you look closely, you can even see a thread of sparkling saliva flowing down from the corner of his mouth.
Lu Li is now even grateful to Yaha Real Estate, if it wasn't for Yaha Real Estate sending people to cause trouble, he might not have gotten hurt and wouldn't have obtained such an awesome Golden Finger.
Misfortune may be an actual blessing in disguise, indeed the ancients were not deceiving me.
"A Li, what are you smiling foolishly about?" Just as Lu Li was indulging in his fantasies, Zhang Wenhui's voice suddenly interrupted him.
Zhang Wenhui looked at Lu Li's appearance with some concern, Lu Li's brain was injured, and now he is in this state. Could it be that his brain was damaged and he became an idiot? Zhang Wenhui worriedly thought to herself. She had seen many mentally handicapped children who were similar to Lu Li's current state.
"Ah, mom, I'm fine." Lu Li woke up to the sound of Zhang Wenhui's voice and also discovered his own disheveled state, hurriedly wiping away the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
"Really nothing?" Zhang Wenhui asked disbelievingly, and walked over to touch Lu Li's forehead, looking at him with a worried face.
Lu Li also calmed down at this moment, knowing what Zhang Wenhui was worried about, and couldn't help but feel both angry and amused. What's all this fuss about?
"Mom, nothing's wrong, why would I lie to you? By the way, I'm hungry, can you go buy me some food?" As it happens, Lu Li really did feel a bit hungry, and at this moment it was almost time for dinner anyway.
"Uh-huh, okay. If there's anything, be sure to tell Mom, I'll call the doctor to take a look." Zhang Wenhui said with some concern.
Lu Li was speechless, who let himself get too excited and lost his composure? He could only nod reluctantly with a bitter face.
Zhang Wenhui then went out to buy food.
Just as Lu Li was about to force a smile, Zhang Wenhui, who had just walked out the door, turned her head back from outside: "Really nothing?"
His face was covered in dark lines, and he finally exploded, squeezing out two words from between his teeth: "Really."
"Haha...…". Lu Li heard the laughter coming from outside the door and only then did he realize that he had been tricked by his mom for the last time.
PS: I came back tonight to update and found that the number of collections had increased significantly, and there were also several recommended votes. My heart is truly excited to the extreme point. As a newcomer, Yī Lěng (my pen name) is also writing a book for the first time, and many things are not well understood. Seeing that there are no reviews in the review section, only some messages asking people to add QQ friends, I was really worried that no one would read my work. I don't know if the collectors have been following along, but it's great to see you all collecting! Then I also went to check out the new book rankings and saw that I'm ranked 60+. I also took a look at some of the books ahead of me in the rankings, and seeing their achievements is truly enviable. Okay, I hope everyone doesn't think Yī Lěng is too wordy, but it's true that seeing those recommended votes made me happy. I don't know who voted for them, but Yī Lěng sincerely thanks you all! Also, if anyone has any suggestions or opinions on what's not good about this book, please leave a review in the review section and I'll carefully consider everyone's feedback. Finally, as a newcomer with a new book, I hope everyone will give me lots of support - please collect and recommend, and all that jazz! Yī Lěng can only repay you all with stable updates.
