Chapter 36: reluctantly

   Chapter 36 Reluctance

Qin Yunshuang walked into the main room in despair. Grandpa Lu was very satisfied to see the love and deep disappointment in her eyes, and smiled at her: "Come here Yunshuang, let Grandpa Lu take a look, so many years have passed. Has it gotten prettier?"

   Qin Yunshuang cheered up and walked over, and reluctantly called out, "Grandpa Lu."

   The old man hooked his lips, and his face was full of incomprehensible smiles: "Yunshuang, Mingxiu had a car accident, and now the murderer has not been found, it is inevitable that you are in a bad mood, so don't take it too seriously."

   She drew a curve from her lips with difficulty.

   "Grandpa Lu, I'm not mad at him, I'm just mad at myself."

   She couldn't help but wonder whether it was right or wrong to leave without saying goodbye.

  The old man cleared his throat, and seemed to mention it vaguely: "I heard that there are a lot of people in your circle who are in love because of drama?"

   Qin Yunshuang immediately understood.

  If they can make the same movie, they can spend a lot of time together.

   Then she will be able to explain it well.

  Thinking of this, the depression and sadness in his eyes dissipated a lot.

noon.

  Lu Zhengqing returned to the old house. He was worried that Mingxiu would quarrel with his grandfather, so he hurried back after the meeting, only to find that Lu Mingxiu was not there at all, only Qin Yunshuang was talking and laughing to the old man.

   Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Zhengqing's face darkened a bit.

   Grandpa actually lied to him, didn't he just say to greet Ming Xiu's injury? Why let Qin Yunshuang come over?

   Even if he was very unhappy, he didn't show it at all, he just stepped forward and shouted, "Grandpa..."

   When the old man saw Lu Zhengqing, he seemed to be in a good mood, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth:

   "Zhengqing, you came just in time. I remember that the Sikong family sent an invitation to the banquet, right?"

  Lu Zhengqing frowned slightly, but nodded anyway.

"Yes."

When the    voice fell, the old man cleared his throat: "Then let Mingxiu go."

After    finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Yunshuang meaningfully.

   Qin Yunshuang understood what the old man meant, and the Qin family also received an invitation from the Sikong family.

  If Lu Mingxiu and her appeared at the banquet at Sikong's house at the same time, the long-lost century would be in the same frame, and her heart would be pounding when she thought of this scene.

  Lu Zhengqing's eyes swirled around the old man and Qin Yunshuang with deep eyes, his dark eyes were like a vortex, but his expression did not change at all, and he simply replied: "Okay."

   then turned away gracefully.

  The old man didn't stop him either.

  …

  Lu Mingxiu returned to Dijing Manor and found that Su Qian was in the manor, and the servants didn't even know where she went.

  Everyone is envious of the splendor and extraordinaryness of Dijing Manor, but in his eyes it is just a beautiful golden cage imprisoning him.

   I didn't have much emotion in the past, but when I heard that Su Qian wasn't here, I felt a little desolate and lonely.

   For the first time, he asked the servant to bring him a few bottles of wine.

  …

   In the evening, Su Qian returned to Dijing Manor, and the butler hurriedly greeted him.

   "Miss Su, it's great that you're finally back."

   During this period of time, she lived in Dijing Manor, and the housekeeper was also very polite to her. She stopped and asked softly, "Is something wrong?"

   When the housekeeper saw Su Qian, it was like seeing a savior.

   He could see that in this manor, the one who could persuade the young master, except for the young master Feng, was this young lady.

   "Young master has locked himself in his room for an afternoon of drinking. Miss Su is busy persuading her."

  Su Qian frowned slightly after hearing this: "Didn't he always dislike the smell of wine?"

   The housekeeper was also very puzzled, but he knew that the young master would be in a bad mood every time he returned to the old house.

   "Miss Su, the young master returned to the old house today, and the relationship between the old man and the young master is not very good..."

   The butler didn't say anything about the rest. After all, it's not his turn to talk about the matter between the old man and the young master.

   Everyone has some untouchable secrets in their hearts, and she doesn't have much interest in those secrets. The housekeeper didn't continue to talk, and she didn't ask any further questions.

   just replied: "I can help persuade, but I can't guarantee the effect."

  The housekeeper looked at her gratefully.

Outside his room, she has been sleeping in the guest room recently. The sofa in his room is comfortable, but his presence is too high, and she often suffers insomnia. She doesn't want to wear one every day. Dark circles affect the appearance.

   She knocked on the door of the room a few times, but no one answered.

   She hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open.

   The windows in the room were open, and the wine smell was not strong, but a faint fragrance.

   From her angle, you can see that Lu Mingxiu is holding a wine glass, raising his head and preparing to put the wine into his mouth. A few drops slipped from the corners of his lips and fell directly into his chest along the arc. At first glance, it was very seductive.

   She never knew that it was so thrilling to drink alone.

  Lu Mingxiu noticed that there was a person standing at the door, he turned sideways and saw Su Qian, his lips curled up unconsciously.

   "Are you here to care about me?"

   She took a few steps forward, folded her arms around her chest, and casually leaned against the wall beside her, with a sullen expression:

   "You've been drinking all afternoon, and the housekeeper is worried about you."

   "What about you? Are you worried?"

   She was silent for a while, she didn't answer his words, and her heart was full of contradictions. Occasionally, her reason and emotions would do some extreme pulling, although most of the time, reason still prevailed.

   Her silence is the best answer.

  Lu Mingxiu was annoyed, reached out and hugged her into his arms, forcing her face against his warm chest.

   "Don't move, I can't do anything, just let me hold it for a while."

  Su Qian pushed and could feel the strength and scalding temperature on his body, she couldn't push it away for a while.

   He looks like he's drunk and like he's sober.

   said that he was very awake, and it was he who acted as a rogue and was as skilled as ever.

Saying he was drunk is because his face has always been like a piece of fogged glass, which makes people unable to see it clearly, only the indifferent and a little alienated face can be seen, and in this moment , for the first time she saw a crack in that piece of glass, and in that crack, revealed his truest inner emotions.

   His loneliness, restlessness and vulnerability.

   She is not a nosy person, but at this moment, she still said something:

   "In this world, no one will ever come to cross you, only you can save yourself."

  Lu Mingxiu's arm tightened a little, holding her tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to rub her whole into his arms.

   "Then what if I have to force it?"

   "Then you will only fall into a place of doom."

   All the cause and effect in this world can only be solved by oneself.
