Since Lu Qing was locked up in the study, he hadn't eaten for two days. The food he brought in was returned intact. Lu Zhan didn't take it seriously at first. If he didn't eat, he would starve him for a few meals. But by the fourth day, he couldn't hold on any longer.
Yes, go to the room to see him.
After all, the human body is made of meat. After not eating for a few days, Lu Qing lost a lot of weight and became a little depressed. Lu Zhan's heart felt like it was being pulled. But he forced himself to harden up.
Xinxin, not eating is his own business, and it is his own fault.
He looked at him with a cold face and asked coldly: "Are you using fasting to silently fight against me?"
"I didn't!" Lu Qing's expression was indifferent, and his voice was a little weak because he had no strength. "I just want to prove my determination to you!"
"What kind of determination can you prove by not eating? Ridiculous! Even if you starve to death, it won't prove your 'great' love!" Lu Zhan exhaled through his nose, expressing extreme dissatisfaction with his behavior. "People of your generation just haven't eaten.
I have suffered a lot. In our time, it was not easy to have a meal. Now that life is better, I have started to do it. I really value love above all else!"
"I'm telling you, you can still starve to death without eating. Love is bullshit when it comes to fate. Especially for people like you, it's not even love, it's just conspiracy, absurdity, farce, and outrageous!" Lu Zhan said more and more.
Angry, the tap-head crutch in his hand made a "bang" sound. Realizing that his blood pressure was a bit high, he suppressed his anger again, "If you don't want to eat, just wait to starve to death. Don't even think about threatening me with this!"
He turned around and left, but Lu Qing called "Dad" and then knelt down straight.
Lu Zhan froze, with a hint of emotion on his face. This son of his had a higher ambition than heaven and earth, and now he knelt down to beg him for a woman? This was enough to prove how important Lin Jia was to him.
But the more this happened, the more uncontrollably angry he felt. He wanted to knock him on the head and cursed: "The man has gold at his knees, but you kneel down for me for a woman. You are doing yourself a disservice! You, you
Get up!"
"Dad, I'm sorry! I know you have always been proud of me, but by doing this, I let you down and broke your heart!" Lu Qing's thin body was like a lonely arc, faintly exuding pain.
Breath. "But I am sincere to Lin Jia, I love her! It is her fault that she lied to you. But she is just a little girl, she has no other choice!"
"I fell in love with her first, and I kept pestering her. She suffered a lot of grievances with Ruan Yunan, but she has always been persistently good to him. She is really the best woman I have ever seen in the world! I give
It took a lot of hard work and a lot of hardships to make her fall in love with me. This love is hard-won. Although in your eyes, it is unethical and shameless. However, in my eyes, her
Love is the most pure and precious gift in the world, I will cherish it with all my life!"
"Before I met her, I didn't know what love was. I thought all a man needed was a career and success, so I worked hard and created things like a robot. But my heart gradually closed, and I had to
Cold-blooded and ruthless. She made me experience the warmth of love, and she turned me into a flesh-and-blood person!"
"With her, I feel happier than ever before. Suddenly I feel that I don't need to conquer the world, become famous, or be extremely rich. As long as I have her, I feel happy. In fact, people are all emotional animals, and they are all fragile.
Life is so short and it is not easy to meet true love, so it is extremely precious!"
"I had planned to confess this relationship to you for a long time, but Lin Jia was worried that your body couldn't bear it, so she kept delaying it. But we were all looking for opportunities to tell you, and we didn't expect to be framed like this. No matter what, you are
Got it. You are here, and I believe you also loved your mother deeply. Even though you didn't get to see her for the last time, you still loved her in your heart. Since you know what love is, why can't you be more tolerant to me? "
"No matter who I am, Lu Qing or the president of Junlin Tianxia, in front of you, I am just your son. As a son, I hope to gain tolerance and understanding from my father. I hope you can value and agree with my relationship.
.Your approval is very important to me. Please respect me this time!"
These words touched Lu Zhan's nerves. What he was most proud of in his life was raising this child to adulthood. He just cared about him too much and was too proud of him, so he couldn't bear the thought of him causing such a thing.
In the final analysis, he is just an old man. Nothing is more important than the relationship between father and son. He wants his son to be happy more than anyone else in the world.
However, the remaining trace of reason still reminded him that that woman must not be Lin Jia.
Putting aside the appearance of the Lu family, Lin Jiaming knew that she had no blood relationship with him, and that she had stayed in the Lu family for so long showed that she was a scheming woman. How could he accept an outsider who had deceived him for more than ten years?
Being a daughter-in-law? He can't do it. He gnashes his teeth in hatred just thinking about it. He can't stand it.
Therefore, he once again forced himself to harden his heart and squeezed out a decisive word between his teeth. "She wants to enter the Lu family's door unless she steps on my body!"
"Bang——" The door was slammed hard, and the whole room shook. Lu Qing knelt there in a daze, and for a long time, a bitter smile gradually formed at the corner of his mouth.
…
Lin Jia temporarily lived in Yin Shuang's apartment for nearly a week. During this time, she was at home every day. She never left the door or took a step outside. She even ordered takeout for three meals, or waited for Yin Shuang to buy something and come back to feed her.
.
She always stayed on the phone and asked Yin Shuang to inquire about the Lu family's situation, but there was no further news. She could only comfort herself. At this time, there was no news, which might be the best news. At least Lu Qing did not have a big quarrel with Lu Zhan.
, Lu Zhan did not enter the hospital, which is already a very good situation. As for how it will develop next, we can only wait and see what happens.
When she woke up in the morning, she was in a daze. After brushing her teeth and washing her face with a big chicken coop on her head, Yin Shuang had already finished her run, bought breakfast and came back. He invited her to eat. When he saw her, he pointed at her face and said, "Last night again."
Are you having insomnia? The dark circles under your eyes are so deep!”
"Hmm!" She sat down listlessly, glumly.
"You, don't stay at home all day long. Sooner or later you'll get sick! I'll come back from get off work early tonight and take you out for a walk!"
She took the porridge she was handed and pouted. "I'm not a dog. What do you mean by taking it out for a walk!"
"Yes! You are not a dog. You are living the life of a pig. You eat, sleep and doze off every day. What's the matter with this!" Yin Shuang sat down and took a sip. "You can't go on like this, even if you don't want to
Breathable, the baby in the belly also needs to be breathable, do you want to suffocate him to death?"
"I'm not in the mood!"
"Don't act like the sky is falling, things are far from that bad!" She poked her head, "Cheer up! The battle horn has just sounded, and you haven't even entered the battlefield yet. You have already
It’s embarrassing to torture yourself like this!”
Lin Jia slowly took a small sip of the porridge, but she didn't know how to taste it. "Tell me, should I go back to the Lu family to have a look?"
"Is there something wrong with your brain? Do you have to be kicked out, or do you want Lu Zhan to be so angry that his blood vessels will burst? If you send him to your door yourself, wouldn't you let others torture you?" Yin Shuang simply admired her brain structure, "Where are you?
Don’t go either, just stay here and wait for news!”
"But I'm anxious..."
"No matter how anxious you are, how can you be as anxious as Third Uncle?" Yin Shuang rolled his eyes, "He is busy solving this matter now, and he must be more anxious than you. But you have seen how powerful Third Uncle is, and he will definitely be able to handle it.
What are you worrying about? From an objective point of view, you are an outsider now. The son of the Lu family wants to take someone home, but his parents don't agree. Of course, it is the son of the Lu family who has to think of a way. Why would you, an outsider, cause trouble with you?
If you look like you hate getting married, people will think you have some conspiracy and look down upon you!"
Lin Jia blinked and thought for a while, it seemed like this was the case. "When you said it, I felt it made sense!"
"Of course, with your stupid brain, how can you compare with me? You listen to me, that's right!"
"Then just sit back and wait for death?"
"This doesn't mean sitting back and waiting for death. This means waiting to see what happens and knowing how to use the words!" Yin Shuang was calm and composed, as if he had a military posture. "You, please relax your mind. After all, they are father and son, and their blood is thick.
Yu Shui, there is nothing that cannot be solved. Just calm down, okay? There will be news soon!"
After some persuasion from her, Lin Jia became more enlightened, and then she smiled slightly and changed the topic. "Then when will you take Su Yuanyou home for a walk?"
"I don't even want to go home now, so why would I want to take him home?"
"Why don't you want to go back? Something happened at home?"
Yin Shuang thought for a while, but still didn't expose the family scandal, and curled her lips. "It's okay, don't talk about it!"
"Then when will you meet Su Yuanyou's parents?"
"I heard they are both abroad, so there is no rush. I have no plans to get married yet! What if I meet my parents and I don't want to get married to him? How embarrassing! Let's wait for another year and a half before dating!"
"Oh! Then you have to take safety measures. Even if you think it's okay for your own people to get married, it's not good for outsiders!"
Yin Shuang slapped her on the back of the head with great disdain. "You, a loser who can't even get married, have the right to educate me? Do you know how to take safety measures to get pregnant? You're stupid! Stupid!"
"Isn't that an accident?" Lin Jia was amused by her disgusted look, "It's true that you don't get rewarded for your kindness!"
"Ding dong ding dong——" the doorbell rang.
"I thought you were gone and ordered breakfast takeout!" Lin Jia went to open the door, but she didn't expect that the person outside the door was not a delivery person, but Lu Zhan. Her smile suddenly froze at the corner of her mouth. "Grandpa?"
When Lu Zhan saw her beaming with laughter, he was furious. Their family was turned upside down by her, and the father and son almost turned against each other because of her, but she still had the nerve to smile? Is it the smile that a winner shows off?
However, as soon as she stopped smiling and felt uneasy, she seemed to him to be scheming again, her face changing faster than turning the page in a book, and he gave a cold "hum".
Lin Jia quickly let him in. Yin Shuang was very sensible and picked up the bread and went out to work. There were only two people left in the living room. Lu Zhan was sitting on the sofa. Lin Jia wrung her fingers nervously and shuddered. "Grandpa,
I-I'll go get you a cup of tea!"
"No, I'll just say a few words and leave!" Lu Zhan looked at her coldly, "Lin Jia, I've treated you quite well over the years, and you and your mother have enjoyed a lot in the Lu family.
Shaofu, what else do you want?"
"Grandpa, I..."
"I won't argue with you about the past. Let me ask you, what else do you want? Money?"
"Grandpa, I don't want money. I never thought of asking for a share of the Lu family's property!"
"You want Lu Qing, don't you? You are very ambitious!" Lu Zhan looked at her contemptuously, "I originally didn't want to send him away with money, but A Qing is my only son, and I have worked hard to raise him until now.
I cannot allow him to make such a big mistake in his life. Even if I give you money, I must drive you away!"
"I've made it clear. If you want to join the Lu family, you have to die. I can still survive for a few more years with my old bones. As long as I'm here, you can't even think about marrying into the family. It's impossible for Aqing to be bewitched by you again.
Against my wishes. So, all you can get in the end is money! It’s better to open the sky and tell the truth, how much do you want!"
"I said, I don't want it! I'm not with him for money. Even if he is an ordinary person, I still love him! Grandpa, I respect you, but please don't humiliate me with such words!" Lin
Jia Zhengzheng said, "If you are buying me with money, please leave before I say more things that contradict you. Because there is absolutely no way I will give up this relationship!"
"Stupid! Greedy!" Lu Zhan stood up, "I tell you, greedy people never end well. Today is the last chance I give you. If you don't know how to seize it, don't blame me for being ruthless! I limit you to two days.
Nei, leave Kyoto and don’t see Aqing again. You’d better leave by yourself. Otherwise, I will use my own means to drive you out, which will be very embarrassing then. I will do what I say!”
Lu Zhan left, with anger still filling the air. Lin Jia slumped on the sofa and fell into deep thought.
…
Before it was time to get off work, Yin Shuang couldn't sit still. She drove her sports car all the way home and hurriedly entered the door. The rich aroma of food penetrated her nose, and she took a few deep breaths.
"Back!" Lin Jia came out with soup, "You're on time, wash your hands and eat!"
"Oh, you who order takeout all day long are finally willing to cook?" Yin Shuang drooled over the dishes on the table. She reached out to steal the food, but was slapped by Lin Jia. "Wash your hands first!"
"I have bothered you for so long, so this meal is my reward!"
"You still have some humanity...wait...how does this sound like a farewell party? Are you leaving?" Yin Shuang was anxious. "Is Old Man Lu trying to drive you away? Don't listen to him, he is
There is nothing you can do against Third Uncle, so you are trying to make a soft persimmon. If you leave, you will be fooled by him and you will suffer a big loss!"
She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but Lin Jia was calm and served her a bowl of soup, "I'm just leaving temporarily!"
"I wonder, you really want to leave? Are you worthy of your third uncle by leaving like this? He would not hesitate to fight the entire family and go on a hunger strike for you. It would be better for you to abandon him at this time and escape alone. Lin
Jia, you, you are a coward, you are a coward, you are not worthy of being liked by my third uncle!"
"Are you done scolding? Can you listen to what I have to say?" Lin Jia sat down the excited girl, "Grandpa said he wanted to give me money, but I refused and expressed my determination to be with my third uncle. But right now, this kind of situation
In this situation, if I stay in Kyoto, not only can I not be of any help, but I may also be in danger."
"You know, with Grandpa's temper, if he does what he says, he will definitely find a way to drive me away. What's more, Lu Wan might make some tricks behind the scenes, and I'm afraid she will hurt the children. If I leave, I can temporarily paralyze them.
Nervous, they won't take the next step for the time being. Both me and the child are safer!"
"As long as I'm here, I'll protect you!"
"I don't want to cause trouble for you! I thought about it for a long time and weighed a lot before making this decision! Just because I left doesn't mean that I give up on this relationship, it just makes a longer-term and more detailed plan. I will wait for my third uncle abroad.
, he will definitely come to me!"
Yin Shuang thought about it and had to admit that what she said did make sense. "Then I will go with you?"
"No! Thank you for your kindness! You have been protecting me all these years. There has to be a time when I have to deal with it on my own, right?" Lin Jia hugged her, "I'm glad that when I was in trouble,
, you are a good friend who is willing to take me in, I love you very much!"
"Idiot, sisters still say such things to each other!" Yin Shuang's nose became sore, "When you are abroad, take good care of yourself. Whenever you need it, just make a phone call. I will turn on your phone 24 hours a day. I'm here
I look forward to the day when you and your third uncle will achieve enlightenment!"
…
Cheng Qingsang heard that there was a big mess in the Lu family and even Lu Qing was imprisoned. When he inquired again and found out that Lin Jia had gone abroad, he guessed that their relationship had been exposed. He quickly dropped what he was doing and rushed to the Lu family.
, made a meal with his own hands and sent it to Lu Qing.
It was nearly dusk, and the fire clouds on the horizon were burning fiercely. The entire sky was dyed golden yellow, which was a bit dazzling. However, the light in the room was a bit gloomy and depressing, so that she felt cold as soon as she entered the door.
She saw Lu Qing, sitting on the big leather chair behind the desk, lying on his back with his eyes closed. He was much thinner. Looking from the side, his lines became thinner, as if he had been carved. He was astonishingly handsome and angular.
Three-dimensional. He hasn't shaved his beard for a long time, and his chin is covered with scum, but it doesn't detract from his handsomeness, and instead has a decadent charm.
Cheng Qingsang looked distressed, walked up to him with the rice and put it down gently. "Brother Lu, eat!"
Lu Qing didn't move, he was thinking about something with his eyes closed. Cheng Qingsang waited for a while and then shouted again, "Brother Lu, it's time to eat!"
"I have no appetite, take it out!"
"But how can you do this? The hunger strike is too harmful to the body! Brother Lu, can you please stop torturing your body like this? Please! It won't help if you do this. Grandpa will not agree!" Cheng Qingsang became more and more anxious as he spoke.
She knelt down next to his legs and looked at him anxiously.
"I have long said that with Grandpa's temper, he would never agree to your matter, and would instead cause a big mess. Now it is proven that what I said is right. Even you are locked up, which shows how angry Grandpa is.
Even if you die, he won't agree to it. Do you really want to overthrow the Lu family and make it turn upside down?"
"Listen to me, before things become public knowledge and there is still room for redemption, can you give up? I love you, and I don't mind that you are still in love with Lin Jia. Let's get married, okay?
As long as we get married, everything will get back on track, really... I won't care! As long as you get married to me, we can start over!"
She said anxiously, her eyes full of eager anticipation and impatience, but there was also a trace of fear and hesitation. Because she had no confidence, and was afraid of being rejected by him. She reached out tremblingly, mustered up the courage, and held Lu Qing's hand.
Her right hand on her knee was held tightly, making him feel her presence.
"Brother Lu... I really love you, so much that I don't care about your past. I know you still like her, but people's feelings will change. I am 10,000 times better than her, and I will be better than her."
She is more gentle and considerate. I can wait for one year, two years, three years and five years. It doesn't matter if you don't love me now. You will definitely fall in love with me in the future. Give me a chance, okay?
"
Lu Qing still closed his eyes, and the light fell on the bridge of his tall nose, outlining his already angular face, which became more sharp. After a long time, he took out his right hand, and Cheng Qingsang's hands hung down feebly, feeling extremely sad.
With despair in his eyes, he lost all his strength and collapsed on the ground.
"You...do you have to be so heartless? Even after all these things happened, you still have to persist? I'm already so humble, what else do you want from me?"
The tears could no longer be controlled and fell from the corners of Cheng Qingsang's eyes. She choked, "Do you know how many people will be hurt by this relationship that you insist on? The most important thing is that it will hurt grandpa, your closest relative.
Do you have the heart to make him suffer? How can you be so selfish?"
"You may think I'm stupid. I'm bothering you to make you upset, but... I'm doing it for your own good... If it were someone else, I could give up, but she can't. I can't just watch you destroy yourself for her.
.Brother Lu, please listen to my advice...it is impossible for you..."
Lu Qing's throat was choked up, and a hoarse voice slowly came out from his lips that seemed to be frozen. "In this life, there will be no one else except her... For her, I would rather betray everyone."
..." His voice was not serious, but every word was full of strength and determination.
The heavy blow almost caused Cheng Qingsang to die from the pain. More and more tears poured out of her eyes, and her eyes were as red as dripping blood. She smiled sarcastically and coolly. "You paid so much for her, she
What? She has already fled abroad. She doesn’t care about your feelings at all. She will only run away... She is not worthy of you insisting for her. "
Lu Qing then opened his eyes, "Has she gone abroad?"
"Yes! She left you alone and left. She doesn't want you anymore!" Cheng Qingsang gritted his teeth shamelessly, "No matter how many things you do for her, it's useless. She is a heartless woman at all!"
She tried her best to say bad things about her, but Lu Qing's face was filled with a strange soft light, "She didn't escape, she was protecting herself, she was waiting for me there..." The tenderness in his smile was shocking.
human heart.
Cheng Qingsang found it unbelievable that that hateful woman had abandoned him, so why did he still have illusions about her? When despair reached a certain level, it became ridiculous and absurd.
She stood up and shook her head coldly, "I will bring her to you and prove with my own lips that she betrayed you!" She became angry and rushed out the door in despair and pain.
