Hearing this, Zhao Qianqian’s heart also ached. No matter what, she had used him. For the first ti, she actively hugged him back: "We are friends; if you need help, please reach out."
"Just having your words is enough." Li Shaogang released her, forcing a smile, "You’re right. Everything has cause and effect. If my dad hadn’t done those heartless things, he wouldn’t have ended up like this."
"Don’t worry. I will live strongly. I’ve already decided to take my mom abroad. Maybe, one day when I’ve figured things out, I’ll co back. I hope by then, you will still recognize as a friend."
"Do you know what your dad did?" Zhao Qianqian’s eyes showed confusion. Such matters are never straightforwardly told to family, but Li Shaogang’s tone and expression clearly indicated that he knew!
"Before the incident, my dad left a letter in the drawer. He feared I might foolishly run around for him..." Li Shaogang’s eyes slightly reddened, "No matter what, he had no complaints about and my mom.
Also, he was forced to act as protection for the other party. I believe, you all already know this, and I trust that the state will pass a fair judgnt. Therefore, I will follow my father’s wishes and live well with my mom."
Experiences make people grow; in just a few days, Li Shaogang had completely transford!
"Tang Xiaoxiao truly cares about you. Luo Ye and I ca to find you because she inford us. She said you’ve been standing in the snow for five hours. She’s worried about you but afraid of angering you..."
"Qianqian, enough said." Li Shaogang interrupted her, "I know she cares about . Precisely because of that, I can’t hurt her. I don’t love her. Unless one day I... co out of this, with the right qualifications, will I make another choice."
"Brother Gangzi, I’ll wait for you, I’ll keep waiting..." The sweet-looking girl erged from behind the pillar beside Luo Ye, tears soaking her collar, making her appear even more pitiful.
"Silly girl!" Li Shaogang’s eyes were filled with helplessness, "You silly girl, Brother Gangzi is no longer the Brother Gangzi he used to be, and besides..."
In the snow, amidst the droning of a man and a woman, Luo Ye and Zhao Qianqian quietly left. They’ve done all they could. The rest is up to fate.
After walking a bit and seeing Zhao Qianqian still looking gloomy, Luo Ye gave a soft sigh and shook her shoulder: "Qianqian, it’s not your fault."
"I’m fine, just thinking, such a rogue, in an instant... Oh, life is truly unpredictable." Zhao Qianqian let out a long sigh, "I hope things get better for him in the future."
Boots stepping on the thin snow made a crisp "crunch" sound, Luo Ye suddenly kicked out, and Zhao Qianqian couldn’t dodge in ti, leading to snow down her collar and all over her face, making her slap Luo Ye in anger: "You rascal, what are you doing!"
Luo Ye chuckled: "Just wanted to tell you, so things happen suddenly, and you can’t avoid them. In the future, things like this won’t be few, you need to learn to adapt."
"Hehe..." Zhao Qianqian suddenly made a mischievous chuckle, and Luo Ye quickly sidestepped, moving away from her, "Don’t suddenly laugh like this, it’s eerie."
"I was thinking, how will you handle what’s coming? You’ve been in Yuanzhou for so long, knowing your cousin’s family is grieving, yet you’ve never visited..." Zhao Qianqian looked her over, "I’m going to Grandpa Li’s for so dumplings, you go visit the relatives yourself." As she finished, she had already run off in the distance.
Luo Ye helplessly shook her head and walked towards the Lu Family.
The morial service for Lu Zhishan wasn’t held, because he returned ho an hour before it was due to start. The story was, at the ti of the car crash, he was thrown out, resulting only in a scraped leg, and happened to be given a ride hitching, becoming a scapegoat."
It sounds full of holes; how could he possibly just get a scraped leg being thrown out? But with Lu Zhishan’s reputation, naturally, no one wanted to cause trouble.
Moreover, when Lu Zhishan appeared, Zan Wenxing was arrested, doesn’t that indicate sothing? Those clever enough could piece things together — probably Zan Wenxing wanted to kill Lu Zhishan, only to fail and suffer the consequences!
Though the ideas might not fully match the facts, they’re close enough.
Visiting the Lu Family was necessary for Luo Ye.
Recently, Wen Su had been staying by Lu Qingqing’s side constantly, aning the engagent between the two families was basically settled. If she left now, once this news reached the Lu Family, Wen Su would surely lose face.
Due to the Wen Family’s influence, the Lu Family might not say anything, but would they truly have no feelings about it? She didn’t want this fact to cause a rift between her and Lu Qingqing.
Therefore, whether walking in or backing out, she’d face the situation head-on.
"Hey, are you here too, girl?" At the Lu Family’s door, Luo Ye encountered the Fat Aunt who greeted her warmly.
Luo Ye smiled and nodded: "Yes, here to see Uncle Lu."
"You young folks really don’t know how to do things, how can you co empty-handed?" The Fat Aunt tugged at her to drag her outside, "At the very least, you should bring so gift, right? You young folks really don’t know how to handle these things..."
"Auntie, no need, I..."
"No need what, you child, really don’t know how to manage..." The Fat Aunt’s pushing and pulling left Luo Ye both amused and exasperated. Just as she wanted to break free, she saw Grandpa Li’s eldest daughter-in-law walking over from afar, carrying a big bag of things.
