Chapter 305: A Huge Misunderstanding

By the time Lu Ming was thrown out of the alley like a piece of tattered cloth once again, he was already gasping for breath.
It was only the next morning, when a street cleaner saw him, that he was roused from unconsciousness.
Lu Ming woke up with a splitting headache, and the exhaustion from last night’s drunkenness and the relentless beating felt like surging waves crashing over him.
He slowly climbed to his feet, but a sharp, tearing pain radiated from his lower body, causing him to lose his balance and fall back to the ground.
His pants were soaked with blood, and he turned pale at the sight of the dark, dried bloodstains on them.
“Wh-what happened?” He was stunned, and the blood-soaked area on his pants, so vividly imprinted with the deep brown stains, was shocking.
“Child, you should go to the hospital,” a concerned auntie passing by suggested. She had not anticipated that Lu Ming would shove her aside.
Lu Ming growled, “1 don’t f*cking need to go to the hospital. There’s nothing wrong with me!”
He left, staggering away, his face pale from the pain., but he still got into the cab stubbornly and returned home without saying a word.
Ever since his divorce, Lu Ming had been living with his mother, Lin Wei.
Lin Wei was not an early riser. At this hour, with the day just breaking, she was still sleeping in bed.
Lu Ming had spent nights away from home before, and Lin Wei never worried about her grown son getting into trouble. That’s why she hadn’t called him yet.
When Lu Ming returned home, the curtains in the living room were still drawn, blocking out the morning light.
He hobbled back to his room, his face frozen as if it could drip water.
Gently taking off his pants, he revealed skin covered in blood, and after cleaning it up, he examined the bleeding area.
He couldn’t remember anything about last night, only that a guy had claimed he was hitting on his girlfriend and then brought a group of people to beat him. As for how many people were involved and what they looked like, he couldn’t recall any of it.
However, these people were vicious; they all targeted his most vulnerable spot. Under the influence of alcohol and pain, he remained unconscious until the early morning.
“F*ck!” Lu Ming muttered under his breath, then changed into clean pants and called the private doctor he had met at the bar, asking him to come over and check on his condition.
With an injury there, he couldn’t face going to a urology clinic; if someone saw him, they might think something was wrong with that part of him.
When the doctor arrived at his home, Lin Wei had already awakened and was busy doing her makeup at the vanity.
Lu Ming solemnly invited the doctor into his room, closed the door, and reluctantly removed his pants.
“Was it hit by someone?” The doctor deduced the correct answer with just a single glance.
But Lu Ming, out of pride, still denied it vehemently. “I just had too much to drink last night and fell by accident. I called you to treat me, not to solve a case. Are you trying to act like a detective? Mind your own business!”
Since Lu Ming spoke this way, the doctor refrained from saying more. He examined the wound carefully and said, “This wound is a bit deep. It would be best to go to the hospital for stitches. If a wound like this gets infected in such a sensitive area, it can lead to serious complications.”
“I’m not going to the hospital,” Lu Ming immediately retorted. “Aren’t you a private doctor? Can’t you just stitch me up here?”
“But 1 haven’t brought any supplies with me. It would be more appropriate for you to go to the hospital,” the doctor responded. He clearly didn’t want to get further involved and began to gather his belongings.
Lu Ming was so anxious that he didn’t even have the time to put on his pants. He grabbed the doctor’s hand and said, “You can’t leave! I’ll give you as much money as you want, okay?”
The doctor impatiently shook off his hand, saying, “This isn’t about money, Lu Ming. As you know, I’m a private doctor, and I don’t treat anyone other than my employer. I’m here today just to give you some face. Don’t push your luck!” “Damn it! You won’t even save a life. What kind of doctor are you?” Lu Ming grumbled.
Outside, Lin Wei vaguely heard some noise and pushed the door open curiously. She didn’t expect to see her son pulling a man without pants. She immediately screamed in fright.
The doctor had a headache and quickly extricated himself from Lu Ming, leaving.
Once he had left, Lin Wei managed to regain her composure. “Son, put your clothes back on. Your mother has something to say to you.”
Lu Ming had no choice but to obey. He put on his pants and then went to the living room. “Mom, what do you want to talk to me about?”
“Kneel!” Lin Wei’s face had grown incredibly cold.
She pushed her son down to kneel in front of the portrait of his late father. Coldly, she said, “Is this how you honor the Lu family? Why can’t you ever focus? I’ve been wondering why you can’t settle down, but now 1 find out that you’ve been learning from those perverts, liking to be with men!”
“Mom, you’re talking nonsense,” Lu Ming said, his body still in pain. When Lin Wei had pushed him earlier, he had been pushed over and ended up on his knees, causing pain in his kneecaps..
