The enemy of one's enemy is one's friend.

Upon hearing Lu Ming's explanation that he had fallen on his own, Lu Zhensheng still didn't fully believe it but decided not to press further.

Soon, the doctor came in to check on Lu Ming and informed him about his condition.

When Lu Ming learned that both his legs had multiple fractures and bone cracks, including a broken tibia, and that he might end up disabled, his mind went blank.

"No way, does this mean I'll be dependent on a wheelchair or crutches for the rest of my life?"

"Will I become useless?!"

"Don't worry, Lu Ming."

Lu Zhensheng tried to comfort him: "I've already informed several renowned experts about your condition. They've received your CT scans and diagnosis reports."

"They said they would create a detailed rehabilitation plan for you."

"If you follow the plan strictly, you should be able to walk normally again."

Hearing his father's reassurance, Lu Ming felt slightly relieved.

However, deep down, he was still filled with resentment towards Lu Han. The prospect of a long and painful rehabilitation process made him uncertain if he could endure it.

"Second Brother, you're awake."

Lu Xue entered the room with a bag of boxed meals, as it was quite late and everyone was hungry.

"You guys eat."

Seeing the "Chanson Hotel" logo on the meal boxes, Lu Zhensheng became furious.

The platform railing was only about a meter high, posing a significant safety hazard. What were the hotel management doing?

"Lu Ming, focus on recovering. I'll come back to see you later."

Lu Zhensheng left angrily, planning to confront the Chanson Hotel management about their negligence.

"Second Brother, you can eat by yourself. We need to go."

After Lu Zhensheng left, Lu Xue placed the meal boxes on a small cabinet beside the bed.

Lu Ming glanced at Lu Han and smiled bitterly, "Xue'er, I'm so badly injured. Can't you at least feed me since you won't stay to take care of me?"

"You injured your legs, not your arms or hands. Don't be so dramatic."

Lu Xue's tone was cold. Feeding him? That was wishful thinking. Bringing dinner here was already more than enough.

Besides, she brought extra food considering her father and Lu Han hadn't eaten yet. She wouldn't have bothered otherwise.

Ignoring Lu Ming, Lu Xue walked over to Lu Han, linking her arm with his, and said with concern, "Brother Han, let's go. You drank so much today; I'll make you some hangover soup when we get back."

Lu Han playfully responded, "Then you'll have to feed me."

Lu Xue agreed cheerfully, "Sure, we can also buy some fruits and yogurt, and I'll make you a fruit salad."

Lu Ming: "..."

Great, they really want to torment him, don't they?

Seeing Lu Xue being indifferent to him while being affectionate with Lu Han, Lu Ming's face turned livid.

After the two left, Lu Ming vented his frustration by sweeping the meal boxes onto the floor, which aggravated his injuries, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

But this wasn't the worst pain. As the anesthesia wore off, the excruciating pain made Lu Ming feel like dying would be a relief.

Around eight o'clock, Uncle Chen and Li Dongsheng arrived.

With them present, Lu Ming felt somewhat safer, allowing him to relax a bit.

After hearing his account, Uncle Chen was enraged.

"Master Lu, I know you can't swallow this humiliation. Don't worry, I'll help you teach him a lesson!"

Uncle Chen looked fierce. Causing accidents wasn't new to him. Apart from this major setback for Young Master Lu, Lu Han was a thorn in their side, and eliminating him seemed like the best solution.

Lu Ming's face darkened, and he turned to Li Dongsheng, who appeared expressionless, asking, "What do you think?"

"Lu Han must be on guard now. We shouldn't act rashly in the short term."

Li Dongsheng spoke concisely, "I'm afraid if our retaliation fails, he might trace it back to us, putting you in a passive position."

This struck a chord with Lu Ming, who nodded inwardly. He had noticed Li Dongsheng was very intelligent, unlike Uncle Chen, who was strong but only knew how to fight.

Today, Lu Ming admitted he had fallen to avoid suspicion because there was no evidence implicating Lu Han.

Both sides had their versions of the story, and with Lu Xue siding with Lu Han, this put Lu Ming at a significant disadvantage.

If things went wrong, he might end up looking like he staged his fall to frame Lu Han.

After all, Lu Zhensheng had just reunited with Lu Han after twenty years of separation and felt deeply guilty, making it clear whom he favored. Lu Ming couldn't afford to gamble on this.

This was the fundamental reason for his capitulation.

Lu Ming regretted underestimating Lu Han and letting his guard down, leading to such a significant loss without being able to retaliate.

It was almost unbearable.

However, Li Dongsheng was right. There were many ways to retaliate against Lu Han, but the key was not to leave any traces.

Lu Han might even be hoping for an attack, so acting rashly would play into his hands.

Therefore, careful planning was necessary.

"If you trust me, Master Lu, let me help you get some revenge first," Li Dongsheng finally spoke.

"How do you plan to do that?"

Lu Ming was curious. He had a feeling that Li Dongsheng's approach might be more reliable than Uncle Chen's.

"Even if we can't target Lu Han directly for now, we can still make things difficult for him. Since the Su Group will be his foundation, disrupting the Su Group will affect him."

Li Dongsheng stood up calmly, "I may not have great abilities, but I understand the principle of taking money to solve problems."

"What I do next will be my pledge of loyalty to you."

"At least, your million yuan investment should be worthwhile. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel right either."

With that, he left the room.

Uncle Chen was puzzled, "What is he going to do?"

"I don't know, but I'm quite looking forward to it."

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and struggled to sit up, finding what used to be simple actions now extremely difficult.

Uncle Chen helped him up and adjusted the bed to a comfortable angle.

"By the way, investigate someone for me."

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes, "The CEO of Qinghan Entertainment is named Shen Luoyan. You should have heard of her."

"Within a week, I want all the detailed information on this woman."

"Especially her relationship with Lu Han. Make sure to find out everything clearly."

He hadn't forgotten the look Shen Luoyan gave Lu Han today.

Apart from despair, there was a hint of hatred born from love.

An enemy's enemy is a friend.

And when women go crazy, they are often more terrifying than men.
