"Yes, Father."
After about ten seconds, Lu Tianren's eyes regained their firm resolve.
"I believe that in the year I spend protecting Young Master Tang, I'll be able to learn quite a lot. That was also your intention in assigning as his bodyguard, wasn't it, Father?"
Lu Rongsheng replied, "That's right—but I had a second purpose as well."
"Back then, I saw ambition and calculation in Tang Qingmo's eyes, which is why I wanted you to go over and build a good relationship with him."
"No matter what Tang Qingmo's future achievents may be, if he rises to prominence one day, our Lu family will have one more layer of connection to him compared to others."
Lu Tianren nodded. "Yes, just as you thought, Father."
After witnessing Tang Qingmo's ruthless thods, Lu Tianren also knew deep down that he must never beco Tang Qingmo's enemy!
No matter what, staying by his side for a year was also a rare opportunity for him to learn all kinds of tactics and thods.
"Mm, I understand."
Seeing the determination in Lu Tianren's eyes, Lu Rongsheng felt reassured.
"Tianren, then continue staying by Tang Qingmo's side. But you must rember this…"
"This will always be your ho. Whenever you feel tired, you can co back and rest at any ti."
"Father… yes!"
Lu Rongsheng's affectionate smile made Lu Tianren's eyes burn with warmth.
Although he had been abandoned by his parents as a child, being able to et Lu Rongsheng and Lu Zhaozhao was the greatest fortune of his life!
"Young Master Tang, I'm back."
At nine in the evening, after finishing dinner at the Lu residence, Lu Tianren returned to the Tang family villa.
Tang Qingmo, who was browsing the news online, was a little surprised. "Oh, you're here."
Before leaving, Lu Tianren had still looked as though the sky was falling, yet now he had returned to normal.
It seed Lu Tianren's ntal resilience was stronger than he had imagined!
"Oh right, Young Master Tang, this is what you asked to buy."
Lu Tianren took out a large bag of spicy strips and grilled skewers—items Tang Qingmo had contacted him to bring over on his way back.
"Thanks!" Tang Qingmo accepted them and imdiately pulled out a skewer. The aroma of at and seasonings wafted through the air.
He put it into his mouth and tore off several bites, revealing the happiest expression he had worn since transmigrating into this world.
Mmm!
The rich flavor of the sauce blended perfectly with the freshness of the at, and he quickly ate two more skewers.
Before transmigrating, although he had lived in wealth, he was constantly heading to mutant beast battlefields and had never had ti to enjoy such authentic street snacks!
"Want one?" He casually pulled out another skewer and offered it to Lu Tianren.
Lu Tianren shook his head. "No need. You eat, Young Master Tang."
Tang Qingmo had spent all these years being suppressed and abused, often without even enough food to eat!
Seeing him savoring sothing as simple as a grilled skewer so eagerly, a wave of pity welled up in Lu Tianren's heart…
Tang Qingmo: …?
What's going on?
Why was Lu Tianren looking at him with such a pitiful expression after coming back?
"Tianren, if there's nothing else, go back to your room and rest tonight. We're heading sowhere else tomorrow."
"Yes, Young Master Tang!"
Before leaving, Lu Tianren once again cast him a look of sympathy, then turned and left.
"..."
The next morning.
While eating breakfast in the main hall, Tang Jianren suddenly looked at Tang Qingmo.
"Qingmo, the head of the Liu family called yesterday."
Inside, Tang Xianxi, Tang Ruoling, Tang Aili, and Tang ixin all looked at him in shock.
Especially Tang Xianxi.
