Chapter 494 Gift

Upon hearing Lu Yuchuan's words, Mu Qian's expression changed slightly.

Huo Qiran also seemed a little stunned. He didn't understand why Grandpa Lu suddenly became his grandfather. He couldn't help but look at Mu Qian in confusion, wanting to ask for confirmation.

Mu Qian only felt a headache and did not respond to the topic. She just said to Huo Qiran: "What did you buy when you went out early in the morning? Bring it over and show it to me."

In fact, not many shops were open on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year. The father and son were just bored after getting up early, so they went out for a walk and bought two toys for Huo Qiran.

Lu Yuchuan looked at the toys that Huo Qiran had put out and quickly laughed. He moved a big box in front of Huo Qiran and said, "This is a gift from grandpa."

The box was almost bigger than Huo Qiran's body. Huo Qiran was slightly shocked and turned to look at Mu Qian again, wanting to get her instructions.

Mu Qian's face didn't look very good, but it was probably because of Lu Yuan's face and it was the first day of the new year, so she suppressed herself and just said to Huo Qiran: "Don't you know how to say thank you when you receive a gift?"

"Thank you -" Huo Qiran opened his mouth immediately, but after saying thank you, he was immediately confused about what to do next.

Lu Yuchuan touched his head and smiled: "It's okay, take your time."

After saying that, he took out two red envelopes from his pocket and handed one of them to Huo Qiran, "This is the new year's money for you."

"Thank you." Huo Qiran took the red envelope and thanked him obediently.

Lu Yuchuan then turned to Mu Qian and handed her another red envelope, "Qianqian, this is for you."

"Me?" Mu Qian chuckled, "I've been an adult for a long time."

"Yeah." Lu Yuchuan responded and said, "But I have never given you New Year's money. Although it is just a formality, I still hope to make up for the regrets of the past."

Hearing what he said, Mu Qian still turned away slightly, unwilling to accept the red envelope.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan quickly reached out his hand, took the red envelope for her, and put it into her hand, "Take it, it's my father's heartfelt gift."

Mu Qian froze for a moment, but finally took the red envelope, but just threw it on the sofa. Then she stood up as if she couldn't bear it and said, "I'll go out and make a phone call."

She stood up and walked out, her back quickly disappearing at the door.

However, what everyone could see was that her cell phone was left on the sofa, next to Lu Yuchuan's red envelope.

There was silence in the room for a while, except for the sound of Huo Qiran unpacking toys.

Huo Jinxi was accustomed to doing his own thing and never paid much attention to other people's feelings. Therefore, even though the atmosphere in the hall was very awkward at the moment, he didn't feel it. He just watched Huo Qiran unpacking a large box of Lego toys with an expressionless face.

After all, Mr. Huo is the elder and the head of the family. He quickly smiled and said: "Qianqian is just like this, the most hard-hearted and soft-hearted."

Lu Yuchuan nodded, without any expression of blame or anger, he just said: "I didn't do a good enough job."

After a while, Lu Yuchuan also stood up and walked outside the house.

On the corridor, Mu Qian was sitting on the sofa facing the cold wind on the first day of the new year, looking straight at the flowers, plants and trees in the yard, her eyes slightly red.

When she heard the footsteps, she turned her head, and when she saw Lu Yuchuan, her eyes quickly darkened.

Lu Yuchuan sat down next to her and said, "You think I came too unexpectedly, don't you?"

"No." Mu Qian said, "I think Mr. Lu, a smart, wise, courageous and ruthless person, is a little too naive."

"Oh?" Lu Yuchuan raised his eyebrows slightly, waiting for her to continue.

Mu Qian sneered and said, "Do you really think that two paintings, one gift, and two red envelopes can offset the things you did in the past?"

Lu Yuchuan nodded slowly and said, "I know what I made you lose, but because of this, I want to make up for it even more."

"You killed my father." Mu Qian gritted her teeth and spoke word by word.

"I'll give you myself back." Lu Yuchuan replied calmly.

"Why do you think you can replace him?" Mu Qian mocked coldly.

"Because my blood flows in your bones." Lu Yuchuan said, "Because we are a real father and daughter."

Mu Qian suddenly gritted her teeth and denied: "No!"

"This life is still very long." Lu Yuchuan said, "We still have a lot of time to prove it."

After saying that, he paused and then said: "I am your father. This is an unchangeable fact."

After hearing this, Mu Qian bit her lip for a long time, and finally got up and walked away before Lu Yuchuan spoke again.

Although Mu Qian's resistance was obvious, Lu Yuchuan still stayed at the Huo family's old house for lunch on this day.

After lunch, Lu Yuchuan was not in a hurry to leave.

He learned a lot about Mu Qian's childhood experiences from Mr. Huo, looked at many photos of Mu Qian when he was a child, and selected a few photos of Mu Qian in different periods to take away.

At that moment, Mu Qian was in the small living room on the second floor, opening gifts with the help of Lu Yuan and Huo Qiran.

The reason why she needs help is because there are gifts piled all over the living room - all of them are hers.

From the age of 1 to 26, there are all kinds of birthday gifts, New Year gifts, Christmas gifts, etc., placed on the floor every year, nearly a hundred pieces, each one different.

The person who gave the gift was naturally Lu Yuchuan.

"These are all arranged by Dad himself." Lu Yuan said, "I saw him writing something in the study before, thinking hard, as if he had encountered a huge problem... What he wrote was a list of gifts."

Mu Qian looked at the pile of gifts in front of her and suddenly said, "Is there a woman around him?"

Lu Yuan was slightly startled and said, "I don't know about this."

"Most likely," Mu Qian said, "For a man who understands women's thoughts like this, wouldn't it be a waste of talent if there aren't many women around him?"

After hearing this, Lu Yuan just shook his head and smiled helplessly, "We can't control this."

Mu Qian continued to open the gifts expressionlessly and said nothing more.

Downstairs, Mr. Huo and Lu Yuchuan had already talked about Mu Qian's eighteenth birthday.

Speaking of her eighteen years old, it was an unhappy past after all.

Mr. Huo sighed slightly and said: "Actually, this child Qianqian is really simple. She just lacks love, so she shows very strong feelings about love and hate. But the more she behaves like this, the more it proves that there is nothing in her heart.

A sense of security. If Mr. Lu is really serious, just using his heart is enough. She is actually very easy to coax."

After hearing this, Lu Yuchuan nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, old man, for your advice."

On this day, until Lu Yuchuan left, Mu Qian had not finished opening the gifts upstairs, so she did not go downstairs to see Lu Yuchuan off.

Lu Yuchuan was not in a hurry and just said to Huo Jinxi: "On the third day of the new year, our Lu family is having a small banquet. If you have time, please bring Qianqian over to sit with us."

Huo Jinxi's brows were extremely pale and he replied, "Let's talk about it when we have time."

Lu Yuchuan nodded, said nothing more, and took Lu Yuan away.
