The Rise of Ning Episode 8 Recap
> The Rise of Ning Recap
At dawn, Luo Shenyuan happened to see Luo Yining's maid rushing out in a hurry. He asked her what had happened, and the maid explained that Luo Yining had developed a high fever. Luo Yining had ordered her not to make a fuss, only to fetch some cool water. Since Luo Shenyuan had a personal connection with Doctor Du, he told the maid to go back, and he sent his own people to summon Doctor Du.
After diagnosing her, Doctor Du not only confirmed that Luo Yining had symptoms of typhoid fever but also noticed that her physical weakness was something she had been born with. He deduced that her mother must have taken a large amount of strong labor-inducing drugs, which would have caused premature labor and posed a great risk to the mother.
Luo Shenyuan vaguely remembered that Luo Yining's mother had suffered greatly during childbirth, and after delivering the baby, she had died from massive blood loss. Now Luo Shenyuan understood that Yining's mother, Madam Gu, had also been an unfortunate woman. Doctor Du added that Luo Yining's weakness would worsen unless they could find the dangerous drug that had been used on her before birth.
Otherwise, this condition would become increasingly apparent, and if she were ever to give birth in the future, it would put her life in serious danger. Determined to uncover the root cause of Luo Yining's condition, Luo Shenyuan immediately ordered his men to investigate the servants who had attended to Luo Yining's mother at the Luo residence. After several days of searching, they finally found a clue.
Luo Shenyuan sent his men to threaten the maid from that time, and the maid confessed that Luo Yining's mother had not had a good relationship with Luo Erye, Luo Yining's father. After their stepmother got involved, Luo Yining's mother was sent to live in a separate courtyard. She had gone missing for a time after an encounter with bandits, and when she was found again, she was already pregnant.
Fearing the scandal would be exposed, Luo Yining's mother had secretly taken an abortion drug, but Luo Yining was born prematurely as a result. Therefore, Luo Shenyuan and Luo Yining were not biological siblings. After the maid finished her confession, Luo Shenyuan sent her far away, warning her never to return. Luo Shenyuan had uncovered a shocking secret and immediately ordered his men to keep it absolutely confidential.
When he saw Luo Yining again, she had regained her healthy complexion and her fever had subsided. Luo Yining knew that Luo Shenyuan had gifted Doctor Du the precious Longyan Incense, and she was grateful for his help during her illness. She not only thanked him but also decided to organize a lively birthday celebration for Luo Shenyuan.
Realizing she couldn’t do it alone, Luo Yining enlisted the help of her sixth sister and Lin Mao to make it more festive. Luo Shenyuan had never celebrated his birthday before, and now seeing that Luo Yining had carefully planned this event and even invited friends to join in a game of drinking orders, he was touched by the warm and lively atmosphere.
The sixth sister and Lin Mao drank too much during the game and soon fell asleep on the couch. In the end, only Luo Yining and Luo Shenyuan remained sober. They continued playing the drinking game, and Luo Yining reminded Luo Shenyuan to always protect himself no matter what happened and to avoid putting himself in danger at the Luo residence.
Luo Shenyuan agreed to everything and added that even if Luo Yining weren’t the seventh lady of the Luo family, he would still treat her like a sister. Luo Yining was moved by his words but did not fully grasp their deeper meaning. Meanwhile, Lu Jiaxue had been thinking about Sun Chengwu’s testimony.
Upon hearing that Li Yinglong had mentioned the testimony being hidden at the Luo residence, he sent his nephew, Cheng Lang, to the Luo residence to investigate the matter. The sudden visit from the young master of the Cheng family, who claimed he had come to visit the elderly Madam Luo, surprised the Luo family.
However, since Cheng Lang was known to be as handsome as Pan An and came from a wealthy family, the grandmother, who had been hoping to arrange good marriages for her granddaughters, happily invited Cheng Lang to stay at the Luo residence for a few days.
