...
The two of them lay in bed until almost 6 p.m. before getting up. When Nanxi went downstairs, her face was still red, a bit embarrassed.
When Lu Qingtian saw the two, he imdiately exclaid happily, "Brother, sister-in-law, you’re finally down!"
Before Nanxi could respond, the old man huffed lightly, "Qingtian, sit still. Don’t fuss. Don’t you know your sister-in-law is pregnant? What if she gets scared?"
Lu Qingtian stuck out his tongue, "I was just excited, and Grandpa, aren’t you exaggerating a bit! Really!"
The dinner table was ready, and the old man didn’t bring up anything else but simply asked everyone to start eating. As he saw it, his grandson’s flushed face was definitely due to shyness.
You have to consider, the grandson is already over thirty, as an elder, I must give so face!
Such sweet monts, let the young couple enjoy it themselves, outsiders shouldn’t interfere!
At the dinner table, the old man brought up the matter of Lu Wenming being recalled.
The old man said, "The Military District called. Your father submitted his resignation letter. It hasn’t been approved yet, but your father seems determined this ti. He’s already on the plane. He probably didn’t tell because he feared I would disagree. The military wanted to send soone to persuade him back, but I refused."
The old man continued, "Your dad, from childhood, was never the kind to give peace of mind. He married without consulting , took a foreign assignnt without consulting , and now he’s coming back without consulting . He always does things his way. I just watch from the side. As long as he doesn’t stray too far off, I generally don’t interfere."
"This ti, his impulsiveness in resigning from his military position is sothing I can’t stop. Your mom has been in the Lu Family for over thirty years without a single good day. A single woman has supported the Lu Family, which really shas . Your dad is fifty-six now, this lifeti of hardship for over thirty years is enough. It’s ti for him to co back! Even if it’s for my dear daughter-in-law, he should co back!"
Xia Zhen, listening on the side, couldn’t help but have her eyes turn red, "Dad, what are you talking about? I...I’m fine. It’s my fortune to have married into the Lu Family!"
"Wenming marrying you is his fortune in this lifeti, having you as a daughter-in-law is also a fortune for the Lu Family! Xiaozhen, I’m sorry! The Lu Family has wronged you!"
Nanxi and Lu Yinchu, watching, were both deeply moved. The harmony of this family stemd from this mont, and Nanxi felt happy to be part of this family.
...
Lu Wenming ca ho at around 9 p.m. that evening. After returning, he went to talk with the old man in his bedroom and ca out later.
Xia Zhen was anxiously waiting outside at that ti.
Xia Zhen, having taken care of the old man for many years, naturally understood his temperant.
The old man internally wouldn’t bla her husband, but he was a man of strong principles.
Even if he wouldn’t bla, he would still scold and teach a lesson outwardly, after all, her husband had neglected the larger family for his imdiate one!
As a military man, such a situation should not occur!
After waiting at the door for over ten minutes, he finally ca out. Xia Zhen hurried over and asked, "Is everything alright? Did Grandfather get angry?"
Lu Wenming looked up at her, suddenly raised his hand, causing Xia Zhen to startle and step back, but Lu Wenming pulled her in quickly!
Lu Wenming’s hand touched her hair as he sighed lightly, "Zhenzhen, you already have white hair!"
Xia Zhen was stunned, "Wenming..."
"So, both you and I, we have aged. Thirty-four years, that’s enough. There’s not much ti left, and I want to be with you properly, to protect you, to watch over you, never to leave again! And I can’t leave again!"
Hearing this, tears instantly fell from Xia Zhen’s eyes, and Lu Wenming reached out to wipe her tears away, "Why cry, you’re in your forties now, you don’t want the kids to laugh at you!"
Xia Zhen stopped crying, and Lu Wenming smiled, "Co on, let’s go back and rest."
Xia Zhen nodded, and Lu Wenming took her hand and headed back.
In that mont of being together, Xia Zhen rembered how, just after their marriage certification, Lu Wenming brought her to the Lu Family!
He was called into the room by the old man, just like this scene, while she waited outside for a long ti until Lu Wenming finally ca out and took her hand, "Zhenzhen, co, let show you our bridal chamber!"
As ti overlapped, many things changed, but the love remained steadfast, unswerving, and the people were still there, never leaving nor forsaking.
......
The next morning, just as everyone had expected, Lu Yinchu’s century-old confession and the topic of Sunny-girl topped all newspapers, magazines, and dia headlines.
In fact, for the subsequent half month, any news about Lu Yinchu or Sunny-girl invariably dominated the headlines, and the sales of newspapers and magazines surged, creating a sensation as if ’the price of paper increases in Luoyang’.
Everyone was speculating: Who is Sunny-girl?
In Lu Yinchu’s confession, he ntioned Hong Kong, so, is Sunny-girl Hongkongese?
Overseas Chinese, Chinese people? Or perhaps a wealthy young lady temporarily studying in Hong Kong?
So even started analyzing Sunny-girl’s voice through the recording, judging by the youthful tone, the girl couldn’t have been older than twenty eight years ago.
So now, eight years later, this girl’s possible age couldn’t be more than twenty-seven years old...
Therefore, all gossip reports and news about Lu Yinchu over the past eight years were dug up!
People spared no effort to compare each person’s voice, just to find that breezy, vivacious voice of Sunny-girl!
The frenzy for Sunny-girl swept through the streets and alleys of H City!
Many were discussing, talking, guessing...
There were even nurous girls online claiming to be Sunny-girl...
In fact, at the press conference that day, everyone felt that Lu Yinchu had never intended to reveal Sunny-girl’s identity!
Was the timing not right? Or was it complete protection?
But since it had already been a century proposal, shouldn’t there be a century wedding next?
Yet neither Lu Yinchu himself nor the official spokesperson for KING Group announced a wedding date!
This made people even more curious about who Sunny-girl was. So, having no other choice, counted all the socialites and heiresses in H City, guessing whether one of them might be Sunny-girl!
