The car was racing all the way, and the scenery on both sides retreated as fast as light. Lin Jia nervously grabbed the seat belt and felt as if her whole body was about to fly out.
Lu Qing drove the car as fast as possible. His face was tense and his pupils were cold, as if they were frozen by thousands of years of ice. His whole body exuded an icy aura that was enough to freeze someone to death. The entire car was filled with chill and the air was thin.
, almost unable to breathe. There is no doubt that he is dangerous at this moment, and even dangerous to the point of losing his mind.
Lin Jia tightened her voice and asked: "Are you... angry with me?" The air in the car seemed to be suffocated, her voice lingered in his ears, and his brows furrowed tighter, with a cold face.
not talking.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect them to be there. I just don't know how to deal with it. Of course I don't want you and Cheng Qingsang to go on a blind date..."
"Then you shouldn't have asked me to go back!"
"I..." Lin Jia opened her mouth and murmured, not knowing how to explain it. In the end, there were only three weak words on her lips. "I'm sorry!" She knew that she had let him down again. She was too timid and weak.
He is cowardly and has too many scruples. He is always the only one who persists and works hard. He must be very tired, right? It’s all useless to her!
"Lin Jia, do you love me?" Lu Qing asked suddenly, looking forward, but eager for her answer.
She nodded without hesitation, "I love you very much!"
"Then, marry me! Let's get the certificate now!"
The sudden words startled Lin Jia. She was stunned for a while before digesting his words. "Get the certificate..."
"Yes! I don't want to wait any longer. They won't give me a chance at all. I always feel that I can only feel at ease if I marry you!" He slowed down the speed of the car and his expression softened a lot. He turned his head and stared at her deeply.
His eyes shone with eager anticipation. "Let's get the certificate first! Okay?"
"But grandpa now..."
"Lin Jia," he interrupted her with a strong tone, "Don't always think about others, don't always take so much care. Can you think about yourself for once, be selfish for once, and be brave for yourself!
I don’t care what others think or do, I only know that there is only one you in this world, and I don’t want to miss you! I want to marry you and make you my Lu Qing’s wife, justly and honestly!”
If Lin Jia had a lot of uncertainties and worries a second ago, Lu Qing's words were like a shot in the arm, instantly giving her courage and strength.
Yes! She didn't do anything wrong or hurt anyone. She just fell in love with him. Why did she always have to consider so many people but put their happiness last? He had already been waiting for her.
It had been too long, she couldn't keep him waiting any longer.
With a sharp look in her eyes, she nodded firmly. "Okay! Let's go get the certificate now!"
She loves him, and she wants to be brave and crazy for their love. No matter what the world will be like tomorrow, no matter how other people will look at them, it doesn't matter. What matters is that she loves him, and he loves her too,
She wants to marry him!
Lu Qing's stern face finally showed a smile, just like a cold snowy day in spring, when the sun shines and the ice and snow melt. "I will take you home now and get your household registration!"
"No need!" Lin Jia blushed, "I always carry my household registration book with me! I always have a hunch that I might be able to use it one day." Maybe subconsciously, she was also looking forward to this desperate madness!
Lu Qing's smile deepened, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were filled with happy smiles. It was as if he had never laughed so heartily before, as satisfied as a child. He rubbed her head and gave her a gentle smile.
He said in an incredible tone: "Me too!"
At this moment, no more words are needed, both of them understand how much they love each other and how much they long to get married and stay together forever.
Lin Jia looked at the road ahead, full of expectation, even a little anxious, hoping it would be faster, and faster, she couldn't wait...
As the car was about to arrive at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lu Qing's phone rang, and the words "Lu Yuqiong" flashed on the screen very quickly.
Lin Jia looked at him and he hung up. Then she made a few more calls and he simply turned off the phone.
After parking the car and Lin Jia got out of the car, Lu Yao called. Lu Qing glanced at the number and seemed to have a premonition of something. He was a little flustered, as if he was afraid that she would regret it, and his voice lost his composure. "Don't answer!"
Lin Jia looked at him, then lowered her head, looking at the screen, which flashed for about ten times. Her eyelashes flickered slightly, seeming to be hesitant. Just before the light was about to dim, she woke up as if from a dream, and then
After getting through, Lu Yao's anxious crying came from inside.
"Okay! Let's come over now!" She hung up the phone and looked up at Lu Qing, "Grandpa is in the hospital for rescue, let's go over there!" She didn't mention the matter of getting the certificate, and both of them understood. Lu Qing punched the car.
, like an enraged beast, the body rises and falls rapidly, "Damn it!"
…
Hospital.
Lu Zhan suddenly fainted, and his family rushed him to the hospital for rescue, waiting anxiously at the door of the operating room. After all, Lu Zhan was an old man in his 80s. Even though he was strong, who knew if he fainted this time, it would happen suddenly.
She couldn't hold on any longer and gave up. Lu Yuqiong kept calling Lu Qing, but he didn't answer and finally hung up on her, which made her half-dead angry.
After waiting for more than an hour, I suddenly felt something was wrong with my body. Thinking that my drug addiction had relapsed, I hurriedly walked to the escalator, secretly took out the drugs from my bag, poured some on the back of my hand, put my nose up and smoked hard. In front of me.
Soon some colorful illusions appeared, and the whole body seemed to be floating, and it was impossible to tell whether it was reality or a dream.
Just when she was in a state of ecstasy, Lu Wan suddenly slapped her from behind. "Mom, what are you doing?"
She was so frightened that she hurriedly hid the remaining drugs behind her back and shook her head in panic. "No, nothing!"
"You said you didn't do anything? What is that hidden behind you?" Lu Wan reached out to grab it and snatched it away. There was only a little powder left in the transparent bag. She was abroad and there were many drug dealers around her, so she could tell at a glance.
Recognizing what it was, his eyes widened in disbelief. "You actually take drugs!"
"Oh... be careful!" Those were the only drugs Lu Yuqiong had left. He was afraid that she would drop them, so he hurriedly grabbed them and stuffed them into his bag. He denied incoherently. "What, what drugs are you talking about? That's my drug."
...Don't talk nonsense..."
"You still want to lie to me?" Lu Wan pulled her over and stared into her eyes, angrily, "You can't touch that kind of thing. Do you want to kill yourself?"
"I didn't! I didn't do drugs!"
"Mom——" Lu Wan almost burst into tears.
Lu Yuqiong knew that she couldn't hide it, so she had to admit. "I, I just smoke it once in a while. I'm not addicted to it, so don't worry!"
"Who are you lying to? That thing will sink in as soon as you touch it, and you can't even quit it. Do you want to destroy yourself?"
"Xiaowan, mom doesn't want to do that either, but you know how unwilling I am to marry your dad. All these years, I can only rely on this to numb myself, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bear it long ago!"
"No matter what, you shouldn't take drugs!"
"Mom, promise you, will you quit in the future? You must never tell others, especially your grandfather and third uncle, do you hear me? If you tell me, mom will be finished! Xiaowan, you are the only one that mom can trust.
You are dead, please don’t tell me, otherwise mom will really die if you see it! You know how bad your grandpa is, he will definitely kick me out of the house if he knows I take drugs, Xiao Wan... please help mom once.
!" Lu Yuqiong begged, and Lu Wan had no choice but to agree to keep her secret for the time being.
"But you must also promise me that you must quit! I don't want to see you die!"
"Okay, okay!" Lu Yuqiong promised, but she was unsure in her heart. Drugs are very addictive. If not, she wouldn't have smoked them for so many years. How can she quit now? But for now
The only way is to hide the matter first and then make plans.
…
Lu Qing and Lin Jia rushed to the hospital. Lu Yao sat in the corridor and cried non-stop. "Yao Yao, how is grandpa?"
"I don't know... After the third uncle left, he suddenly fainted. He is still rescuing him now..." Lu Yao hugged Lin Jia tightly, "Cousin, I'm really scared. Grandpa is so old. What if he doesn't survive?"
What should I do in the past? Wuwuwu...wuwuwu..."
"Don't cry, grandpa is so strong, he will definitely be able to survive this difficulty!" Lin Jia could only comfort her like this, but she was also very panicked. The old man's health was uncertain, and who knew whether it would suddenly happen... She didn't dare to think about it.
Go down, that's too scary.
She looked at Lu Qing. He was leaning against the wall, his expression solemn and silent, his whole body shrouded in dark clouds.
Lu Yuqiong rushed over after taking the drug, and when she saw Lu Qing, she got angry and accused him loudly. "Dad is lying in the emergency room now, with his life and death uncertain. Are you satisfied? He and I were busy making arrangements, and both
Who is it for? Is it for you or this family? It would be better for you to reject it directly without giving Mr. Cheng any face. Dad is just because he is angry for a moment... I have always been proud of you, but you are too letting me down now.
Disappointed! What on earth has deceived your mind to become like this? Tell me!"
"Cousin, stop scolding Third Uncle, he feels very uncomfortable now!" Lin Jia tried to persuade her, but Lu Yuqiong immediately scolded her.
"Shut up, you are an outsider, what do you have to say? Don't be hypocritical. If something happens to dad, you will be the happiest, waiting to divide the family property, right? I have known for a long time that you, a little bastard, have no good intentions.
Internal strife, the more chaotic the better, you can take the opportunity to get a piece of the pie! Don't dream! You can't even get a penny of the Lu family's property. Even if grandpa really can't survive, he won't give you a penny.
Give up!"
Lin Jia only cares about Lu Zhan and Lu Qing now, and has no mind to pay attention to Lu Yuqiong. She can scold them as she pleases.
Lu Yuqiong's screams and curses echoed throughout the corridor, making people feel even more uncomfortable.
Heart, as silent as death!
…
Lu Zhan was rescued, but he suffered an ischemic stroke, that is, a stroke. The originally strong old man was now paralyzed and could only lie on the bed, his mouth was crooked, he could not speak clearly, he was old and pitiful. Lu Qing stayed on guard all day
He was responsible for taking care of him at his bedside, serving him tea, feeding him, and catheterizing him. In just a few days, he had become much haggard, his chin was covered with stubble, and he had no mental awareness.
Silence fell.
Lin Jia stood silently at the door and looked at him, her heart aching in waves. The pain was silent, suffocating, and indescribable. It was like trying hard to find a trace of warmth in the ice and snow, but couldn't find it.
"Do you see, this is the disaster that your so-called love brings!"
A voice sounded faintly next to her ears, and Cheng Qingsang stood beside her.
Lin Jia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said nothing.
"You think you are great, and you think your love is the most noble thing in the world, indestructible, but what happened? It brought disaster, almost death! You think I was the one who stole the man from you, but I also
For the sake of Brother Lu, if he loves not you but other women, I might give my blessing. But for you, I can’t do it because I expected this day to happen!"
"Brother Lu rejected me all because of you. If you hadn't appeared, he wouldn't have done it in front of grandpa, and grandpa wouldn't have had a stroke. Just like this, he can no longer accept it. If you confess to him, he will really
He will die! Even if he has no blood relationship with you, he is Brother Lu’s father after all. Do you have the heart to use your love to force him to death? "
"If your marriage is based on the death of your father, do you think Brother Lu will be happy? He won't!" Cheng Qingsang shook his head lightly, "He is a very emotional man, and he will definitely feel guilty. This
I will carry regrets all my life and cannot forgive myself! Even if I marry you, I will divorce you sooner or later! You will never be happy!"
Her words, every word, tortured Lin Jia's heart, but she clenched her fist and said stubbornly: "Whether we will be happy or not is not your turn to judge!"
"Isn't everything in front of you enough to prove what I said? A marriage that is despised by the world will not be happy! Sooner or later you will understand that love is not everything in marriage. The most important thing is whether it is suitable or not! If you continue, you will only
It will destroy the Lu family and Brother Lu. He is not someone who lets go easily. If you don’t want him to be in trouble, you should leave by yourself!"
Cheng Qingsang glanced at her with a deep gaze, as deep as a bottomless black abyss. Two hands stretched out from the mud of the black abyss and kept pulling Lin Jia.
She fell into a long silence.
…
At nightfall, Lin Jia borrowed the hospital's kitchen and cooked some porridge and brought it to the ward. He looked haggard, with thick shadows under his eyelids. It was obvious that he hadn't slept for several days, which made her worried. "Uncle, thank you for your hard work.
, drink some porridge first! Grandpa, I will take care of you!"
He didn't seem to hear her words, and carefully wiped Lu Zhan's hands with a towel. After wiping them clean, he wrung out the towel, hung it up, and walked out of the ward.
Lin Jia thought for a while, then followed him out, holding the thermos bottle, and asked him: "Would you like some porridge?"
"Lin Jia..." He called her name and turned to look at her seriously. "Do you regret it?"
