World Two, Overbearing Presidentâs father (30-END)
One week later, Xue Xue, accompanied by Zhang Xifu, Zhang Xilan, and Lu Zhou, took Lu Shihang to offer incense to her parents.
Seeing the handsome and upright man in the black and white photo and the charming and tender woman nestling beside him, Xue Xue couldnât help but feel aggrieved.
âDad, mother, daughter isâŚâ
Xue Xue choked up, and then began to cry.
The teardrops were as big as beans, like pearls in broken threads, couldnât stop but fall down.
Lu Zhou put his hand on Xue Xueâs shoulders and supported her like a huge mountain, giving her support and silent comfort.
The two sisters Zhang Xifu and Zhang Xilan had already taken Lu Shihang away, leaving room for the young couple and their younger sister who just met again, so now there was no one in the huge temple, and Xue Xue was not pretending to be strong either. She buried her head directly in Lu Zhouâs arms and started whimpering and crying.
Lu Zhou felt distressed, but he knew that only Xue Xue herself could solve this matter.
It would just take some time.
âDad, mom, Iâm your son-in-law, Lu Zhou.â
The woman who was helped by Lu Zhou to catch her breath raised her eyes to look at the man standing in front of the portrait of her parents.
He looked calm and serious.
âAlthough you canât witness it with your own eyes, I swear to you here that I will take care of Xue Xue, love Xue Xue, treat her sincerely, not let anyone harm her, and do my best to make her happy and joyful forever.â
The manâs words were not loud, but they were sonorous and powerful, echoing in the room, and they hit Xue Xueâs heart at once.
She finally knew why Xue Keyue in her previous life was so upset.
She got to miss such a man, a gentle and strong man who was not only successful in his career, but also charismatic in character. She would definitely have regrets.
However, if it was her, she would definitely not let such regrets happen.
When Lu Zhou respectfully finished lighting the incense, he walked towards Xue Xue. Xue Xue extended her hand towards the man.
Lu Zhou took Xue Xueâs hand and rubbed her fingers.
âDo you feel better now?â
âYeah.â
âDonât think too much, father-in-law and mother-in-law will be very happy to know that their daughter is living a happy life.â
âYeah.â
âEverything will be fine.â Lu Zhou said, raising Xue Xueâs hand to his lips and kissing it gently. âOur son and I will accompany you.â
Xue Xue looked at the man and in his apricot eyes, there was a glitter of light.
âYeah.â
Old master Lu refused to admit Xue Xue.
The day after the press release was issued, Lu Yao came to questioned.
When Old master Lu learned of the news, he was drinking tea with his old friend. Hearing that his child had gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau, he had immediately thought that this must be a good thing done by his grandson.
âBastard!â Old Master Lu slapped the table, pointed to the housekeeper, and roared angrily. âYou tell the bastard to get back nowââ
His old friend wanted to persuade, but he couldnât.
In fact, he didnât quite understand the thoughts of Old Man Lu. His son finally gave birth to a promising grandson, but he ended up in a stalemate with his son for decades, which was really puzzling.
Later, of course, Lu Zhou didnât go to see his father, but he sent Wen Bin to pass on the message.
âDad, I know that you want to use filial piety to suppress me, but since the design of that year, you should know that the love between us parents and children is limited to me ensuring that you can live a safe life.â
âAlso, I admit that I was involved in Lu Yaoâs affairs, but the main reason was that he offended the Lin family.â
âIf you are interested in understanding the whole process, I have already asked someone to prepare the information.â
Wen Bin repeated Lu Zhouâs words, regardless of the green expression on Old Master Lu face and calmly handed the kraft paper bag to the housekeeper who was standing by.
âFinally, the president also saidâŚâ Wen Bin paused. âLook at it, am I doing something wrong or Lu Yao owes a lesson. After all, for Lu Yaoâs current temperament, your teaching in his childhood was indispensable.â
In fact, Lu Zhouâs tone was not harsh, but it was just an added effect of Wen Binâs own speculation on the psychological activities of his boss.
After all, Wen Bin, who had spent some time with Old master Lu, knew that Old master Lu could be biased but Lu Zhou was his immediate descendant.
Therefore, old Master Lu roared angrily and told him, âGet out!â
Hearing that, Wen Bin walked away, but he didnât forget the most important sentence before.
âIn addition, the president said that he was going to take his wife and young master on vacation. Please donât call if you are okay. Of course, no one will answer the call.â
After saying that, Wen Bin, who had walked to the door, bowed deeply and turned around neatly, no longer paying attention to the roar of Old Man Lu in the back.
âMa Ma, I want to eat pudding.â The four-year-old shouted excitedly, pointing to the freshly-baked pudding placed above the vendorâs head.
âMama, Xiao Mei, Xiao Huang, Xiao Hua all said they only like me.â The tender face pouted and counted with his fingers one by one, and the six-year-old childâs cute face appeared distressed. âBut what should I do, every classmate of mine likes me.â
âMama, what are you doing with Baba?â The eight-year-old Lu Shihang held his small pillow and stood by the door. His big innocent eyes were full of curiosity. âIs my father bullying Ma Ma? Why is he pressing on Ma Ma?â
âMommy, this is the chocolate I received for you to eat.â The junior high school boy was now taller than his mother. He carried a bag full of various chocolates of all kinds in his hand. âThey all say they like me, but I think I still love Mommy the most.â
âMommy, this is a Valentineâs Day gift for you.â Wearing a white shirt and black trousers, the high school teenager with a handsome face held a bunch of red roses in his arms and smiled brightly. âAlthough I havenât been able to charter you a whole cruise to celebrate like my dad did, but I will work hard to surpass his achievements one day.â
âMommy, donât be sad, itâs not like I wonât be back.â The young man who was about to turn eighteen hugged his crying mother, softly comforting. âI promise you that I will report my safety every night, donât cry, okay?â
âMom, dad, this is my girlfriend. Her name is Nian Shiyin.â Lu Shihang who went abroad to a big city near the sea and sunburned his skin, embraced the beautiful girl and smiled like a rising sun, and said to his parents. âI will treat you like how my dad treat mom for the rest of my life.â
âMom, I broke up with Shiyin.â Lu Shihangâs tone was solemn, but his eyes were resolute and firm. The facial outline resembled Lu Zhou, but he inherited Xue Xueâs beautiful eyes. There was no trace of hesitation on the handsome face. âShe couldnât accept my idea of joining the army and serving the country, and become a truly indomitable man.â
When Lu Shihang was 21 years old, he graduated from the School of Management with first place.
Then, he chose to enter the army.
Except for meeting once a year during the Chinese New Year, most of the time, he was on mission in other places.
Xue Xue didnât know Lu Shihangâs troops, he didnât tell her and she didnât ask, but she always supported her sonâs every decision and encouraged him.
At the age of thirty, Lu Shihang ended his military career.
There was a scar under the corner of his eye, which was injured during a certain mission.
But Xue Xue knew that it was an honor and a growth.
âMom.â Lu Shihang smiled, showing a row of neat white teeth. In front of his mother, he seemed to always retain that innocence of his childhood. âIâm back.â
System: âLu Zhouâs favorability is 100%, and the clientâs grievance value is zero⌠Congratulations to the host, the mission was successfully completed.â
