Xia Zhen was shaking with anger, unable to utter a word.
But she would not let Qi Qun’s words shape her son as an ungrateful person!
After Qi Qun left, Xia Zhen regained her composure and made a calming tea for the patriarch.
The patriarch was doing well, but not too long after, he started coughing. It was only after Doctor Gu arrived and treated him that he felt better!
On one hand, worried about the patriarch and on the other, fretting over Lu Yinchu and Han Qing’s affair, she finally called Lu Yinchu to co ho and clear things up face-to-face.
Xia Zhen said, "Yinchu, all along, mom knows you’re a sensible and disciplined man, like your father, stubborn about love, serious and principled... Mom thinks this is good. For a man, no matter how powerful, wealthy you are, your perception of love can’t be off track. Love, human nature, morals, and even a person’s character are all closely related. If one is distorted, then eventually everything else will follow and beco distorted. Do you understand?"
Lu Yinchu furrowed his brows slightly, and in a steady voice, he nodded, "Rest assured, mom, I understand these principles!"
"Good to hear you understand!" Xia Zhen sighed, "Actually, for a man, the most important thing is a sense of responsibility! The responsibility you hold towards people and things, as well as the efforts you make for this responsibility!"
"Since young, what I’ve taught you to value the most is this principle, and I know you’ve always been diligent in following it, and that’s why I’ve never been troubled about you..."
Xia Zhen looked at him, weighed her words and asked, "So Yinchu, tell the truth to your mom, have you had an affair with Han Qing? By that, I an before Nanxi ca along, did you two have... that kind of relationship?"
"No!" Lu Yinchu answered directly!
"Then why did you give her a house! Don’t ask how I knew, just tell if this happened!"
Lu Yinchu pursed his lips and nodded, "Yes!"
"If there wasn’t a relationship, then why would you give her a house. I don’t understand, Yinchu, tell , even if you had a relationship with her, mom wouldn’t bla you too much. Just rember that the n of the Lu family are responsible n. Now that you’re married to Nanxi, you need to be responsible to her for life, regardless of Han Qing. You’re Nanxi’s husband, you..."
"Mom..." Lu Yinchu called out, interrupting her.
He took a deep breath and said, "Mom, your suspicion of isn’t because you don’t trust , but because you don’t know well enough. Perhaps all along you’ve been curious about why I would give up on Han Qing for Nanxi. So things are hard to explain in a few words, but I want to make it clear: My relationship with Nanxi started not just a few months ago. In fact, I t her eight years ago when I was recuperating in Hong Kong and fell in love with her. But she was too young then, and that’s why I didn’t make a move right away. You understand your son’s stubbornness. While having Nanxi in my heart, I could never have feelings for any other woman, let alone do anything to them. This house was a gift for Han Qing, but I assure you, there was nothing between Han Qing and !"
...
Before returning to his room, Lu Yinchu smoked a cigarette at the end of the corridor.
His mood was inexplicably irritable!
As for Han Qing, he indeed felt a sense of guilt, but it was rely his conscience at play, nothing more.
In the initial four years after losing Nanxi, his life was empty and numb, filled with unbearable pain. He felt like a machine, all his emotions and passions extinguished by the extinguishing fireworks of Hong Kong, leaving a barren wasteland. It was then that Han Qing appeared, filling so of the emptiness.
That’s why, knowing Han Qing had feelings for him, he failed to tily and decisively push her away!
His reluctance allowed her to stand in a position very close to him, even if it was rely a friend’s position but she was a woman!
It’s commonly known that there are no won around the business titan Lu Yinchu and now, one appeared who seed to be very close to him. How could this not invoke curiosity?
When he t Nanxi again, he started feeling ashad about his previous indulgences.
Although he has always believed that he never gave Han Qing any reason for attachnt, on second thought, wasn’t his indecisiveness at the ti a reason in itself?
A woman spends her most beautiful years from twenty-two to twenty-eight on you. Even if you did nothing, you couldn’t truly ignore it!
But he’s no big-hearted saint. He has to admit that when he gave her the house, even though a part of it was to compensate Han Qing for six years of her life, and to appease his conscience a little bit, the main reason was to protect Nanxi!
He was afraid, afraid of hurting Nanxi, afraid of losing Nanxi again!
How could he have foreseen that Han Qing would not be as kind and gentle as he imagined? He had known her for six years and had not noticed!
Did she change too fast? Or was her acting too good? He didn’t know.
Regardless, he has always had one thought in his mind: Nobody, including Han Qing, could hurt Nanxi!
Nanxi, she is his bottom line!
