Chapter 140 Extra 3 [End]
Chapter 140 Extra 3 [End]
Wu Jingan——
"I hate her so much. All the grievances she suffered were like a slap in the face that left me speechless. But, I also love her so much."
Wu Jingan lay in prison, waiting for his final outcome. Due to his special circumstances, he was held in solitary confinement in another key prison.
Such an ending was really beyond his expectations. Even if he wanted to commit suicide, he didn't have the chance. Looking at the ray of sunlight seeping in, he became a little dazed.
Suddenly I remembered Uncle Deer from my childhood. In those dark years, it was that uncle who gave him a ray of light. No wonder, he himself was a person living under the light.
He still remembered that uncle, whose facial features were really too handsome. He could only wear dark-colored clothes and dress maturely to suppress the impact of his appearance.
Perhaps it is because people who have been immersed in darkness for a long time will always be unconsciously attracted to those with gentle smiles, and can't help but want to get closer. Even if they don't have any dirty thoughts, they think it is great to stay with this person.
His father, a lone wolf-like man, stood there. He was a natural terrorist and warmonger. He cared about nothing except combat calculations. Only Uncle Deer could get some sincerity from his father.
Lu Sheng is truly worthy of being Uncle Lu’s daughter. Apart from their somewhat similar features, both of them have firm beliefs. They are in darkness, yet they yearn for light.
Lu Sheng's father despised his father, and Lu Sheng despised him. The father and daughter did not even bother to pretend to be friendly with them, and all they had was judgment on the criminals.
Sometimes he really didn't understand, were those beliefs really that important? So important that they were fearless, even willing to risk their lives, and unwilling to betray even if they were tortured.
He clearly remembered the day when Uncle Lu died. He was wearing glasses, casual clothes, and standing in front of the man in a well-dressed manner.
"Uncle Lu, do you think I look like a person like you?"
Uncle Lu didn't look at him, but at the dandelion in the dark corner of the room. His voice came faintly: "No, no matter how you disguise yourself, you can't escape the punishment of the law. Wu Jingan, I watched you grow up. I know you very well, and I know that you will never stop."
Wu Jing'an raised his lips sarcastically: "It's quite interesting. I grew up in this kind of environment. You want me to be a good person, but you deny that I can be a good person. Uncle, I will never be as stupid as my father and be fooled by you."
Lu Sheng's father nodded seriously.
"It doesn't matter. I have long anticipated this day. There are tens of thousands of me in this world, and you can't kill them all. They will always stand on the front line, watching you, making you never at peace, and trembling with fear at those eyes."
"Of course, you won't understand this."
At that moment, Wu Jing'an suddenly felt that he and this uncle were very strangers, as if the person who had saved him several times was not him, and he also felt that he had never understood this person.
"Uncle, as long as you tell me the others, I will let you go."
Lu Hongbo was very calm at the moment. Even though he had been tortured and covered with wounds, his eyes were tough and bright: "Everyone will die, even my companions. Some of them are younger than me. I just walked towards their way home."
Wu Jing'an lowered his eyes slightly, and after a while, he spoke: "What a pity, in my heart, I once regarded you as half a father."
Lu Hongbo did not speak, but slowly closed his eyes. He was just thinking that he also had a daughter, so delicate, soft and small. When her watery eyes looked at him, his heart seemed to soften into a pool of water, and he wished to give her the best things.
Taking advantage of the last time, he imagined what his daughter would look like when she grew up, from elementary school to high school, and then to college. Those fictional pictures flashed quickly in his mind.
He didn't know what his daughter would be like when she grew up.
He just missed her a little, and regretted that he didn't tell her how much he and his wife loved her when he heard her crying before they parted.
If he had known that would be the last time they would see each other, he would have hugged her.
He was worthy of everyone, and the only thing he felt guilty about was his daughter. Perhaps he was an unqualified father. He missed his daughter's childhood and could no longer participate in her future.
His only wish for his daughter is to grow up safely.
"Don't you regret it?"
When Lu Hongbo heard his brother whom he met while undercover asking him this question, he opened his eyes and saw only a blood mist in front of him. After a few seconds, he could see clearly.
"I have no regrets. If I had the chance again, I would still make the same choice over and over again, tens of millions of times."
"Brother Lu, I'll give you a ride so you can suffer less and leave quickly. Let's be brothers in our next life. I hope that by then, you won't be a policeman and I won't be a drug dealer."
Lu Hongbo felt as if his lungs were being squeezed together with every word he spoke, and it hurt so much, but he still said, "I will still be a policeman in my next life. As for whether you are a drug dealer, I hope you are not. Become an ordinary person, open a small shop, or run a barbecue stand at night, be ordinary."
Wu Jing'an watched from the side as his breathing gradually stopped. He was so angry that he wanted to grind him to dust, but in the end he didn't do it.
He walked to the damp corner, bent down, picked up the only dandelion, put it to his lips and blew gently. The white fluff scattered in all directions, some fell in the darkness of the room, and some passed through the window and flew with the wind to the place where the sun shone.
All the details of the past appeared in Wu Jing'an's mind. He thought quietly, but not as calmly as before. It was a purposeless and stubborn memory. If these factors were excluded, was there still some possibility between him and Lu Sheng?
But he had to admit that if it weren't for his identity as a drug dealer, the two of them would have no intersection in their lives. Those people who bowed down for love and whom he once laughed at from the commanding heights of love eventually became that kind of people.
There is never a lack of excellent people around her, and no matter who they are, they are much more sincere than him.
Or in other words, she just stood there and people came to her like moths to a flame.
?Jing'an finally met a person, Anlin, and he suddenly remembered that he met this woman by chance. He found her interesting and kept her by his side.
Before meeting Lu Sheng, he had some affection for this woman. At least among all the women in his building, this woman was special to him.
"Are you also from the police?"
Wu Jing'an's tone was very flat, as if he was talking about something insignificant that didn't stir up any emotions in him.
"Wu Jing'an, be a good person in your next life."
Wu Jing'an was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Be a good person in my next life? I didn't expect that someone would still hope that I would have a next life."
Lu Sheng wished he could grind his bones into dust and scatter his ashes. Not to mention the next life, even in this life, if he looked at him for one more second, he would feel disgusted.
He didn't expect that there were people in the police force who hoped that he would be a good person in his next life.
For a moment, Wu Jing'an suddenly felt a little ironic, yet also a little refreshed. Perhaps it was that the police undercover was not so clean, and had some things in common with him.
He asked An Lin: "Why did you approach me?"
An Lin's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt like she was about to have another heart attack. The pain made her take two pills, and she slowly said, "My boyfriend was also a drug enforcement police officer. He died, and I approached you on purpose to help him get revenge."
After understanding this, Wu Jing'an suddenly lost all interest. The world is indeed black and white, with gray areas as well. He just felt that something was missing.
Perhaps, not everyone is like Lu Sheng.
He knew that it was not his light and it had never shone on him, but at some point, when he saw her shining on others, he saw her as salvation.
Lu Yunzhou——
"Brother, have you decided?"
The young man was wearing a white coat and had a slightly cold expression on his face. He said, "I want to be a psychologist, not take over the Lu family's business."
Lu Yunzhou smiled and said, "Xiao Miao, you must hold on to the girl you like. Even if she doesn't like you now, you can still pursue her. Maybe you can welcome the long-overdue heartbeat of your youth. Don't let yourself regret it. I did something wrong in the past and I deserve some punishment."
"Don't worry, the Lu family is now clean, and it's time for you to take over cleanly."
The Lu family's history of success was not very clean. When Lu Yunzhou took that position, his methods were somewhat tainted with uncleanness.
I only knew about Wu Jingan and Lu Sheng's story. When I read her Weibo posts, I suddenly realized that the girl was innocent and he had been walking in the gray area. There was a huge gap between the two of them.
He was a coward who didn't even dare to admit that he was moved, and could only use the excuse of compensation to carefully reveal a trace or two of emotion.
Lu Yunzhou sometimes wondered how nice it would be if their first meeting had not been so terrible, if he had reached out to her that day in the Love Apartment.
"Hello, Lu Yunzhou."
She would probably reply: "Hello, Lu Sheng."
Every time I see Xu Miao, I can’t tell whether it’s my own regret or my regret for my brother and my youth.
Maybe sometimes I feel a little envious, envious of Xu Miao, who once loved someone so passionately and boldly, and the person he liked happened to like him too. Even though they missed each other, they were still heading towards each other in the end.
Xu Miao was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Brother, after all these years, do you have someone you like?"
He looked at Lu Yunzhou with a determined gaze.
Lu Yunzhou's brain short-circuited for a moment, as if he needed to shut down and restart. He could only feel his heart trembling. The warm breath of early summer accompanied by the sound of cicadas lingered over and dragged him into the "Spring Heartbeat" that he could not escape from. He fell into the rainstorm and the sound of wind chimes under the moon.
Perhaps it was destined from the beginning. It was already summer, but my heart was beating at the wrong time.
Lu Yunzhou shook his head gently: "No, I have never liked anyone."
He walked into the police station and smiled softly, "I'm here to turn myself in."
Jiang Yue——
"Jiang Yue, come on, let me hug you..."
Jiang Yue woke up from her dream and rubbed her temples. She felt that this dream came out of nowhere and made her feel inexplicably scared.
She dreamed of a summer when she was young and a girl fell from the roof.
"Jiang Yue, if I jump down, will you catch me?"
Lu Sheng opened her arms, the evening breeze blew up her high ponytail, and the windy school uniform wrapped around her body. She asked herself jokingly.
Jiang Yue took a sip of water, but couldn't fall asleep. She picked up the phone, then put it down again.
For some reason, ever since Lu Sheng committed suicide, she always felt that there was something between the two of them. Even though they still got along as well as before, she felt empty in her heart.
After hesitating for a long time, he still called Lu Sheng.
"Hello, Jiang Yue." The voice on the other end of the phone was very clear.
Jiang Yue asked: "You haven't slept yet?"
"Well, go to sleep later. Jiang Yue, what's wrong? You don't sound right."
Jiang Yue was distracted for a while, with all kinds of messy thoughts crowding in her mind. She looked at the frost falling outside, and suddenly wondered if the cold moon also felt lonely, so it dropped some stars to give to the world.
"Nothing, I just had a dream about when we were little. I went to look for you and you were standing upstairs, asking me if I would catch you if you jumped down."
"Then how did you answer?"
Jiang Yue thought about it carefully and said, "I forgot, but I think, whether it was then or now, it's hard to say whether you can catch it or not, but I won't let you jump down so dangerously."
Lu Sheng chuckled: "I remember, I've dreamed about it many times. Sometimes, I can't tell whether it's reality or a dream. Shall we meet tomorrow?"
Jiang Yue: "Okay, I'm done with my work these days. I haven't had dinner with you for a long time."
For some reason, Jiang Yue suddenly had a lot to say to the person on the other end of the phone, so she began to share her daily life during that period. She didn't hang up the phone until the moon set behind the clouds and a ray of morning light shone through.
Lu Sheng gently opened the drawer and took out a piece of paper with a passage from Tagore on it:
【Live like a ray of light, because you don’t know who will walk out of the darkness with your light. Please keep the kindness in your heart, because you don’t know who will walk out of despair with your kindness. Please keep the faith in your heart, because you don’t know who will walk out of confusion with your faith. Please believe in your own strength, because you don’t know who will start to believe in voluntariness because of your faith. Each of us can live like a ray of light, blooming with all the beauty.
Lu Sheng, someone hopes that you can live your life in peace, no matter you are rich or poor.
I only hope that you can ride a horse and wear fine clothes, travel thousands of miles, and return as the young man you were before. 】
Lu Sheng knew who wrote this letter to him, but he just put it away carefully.
She thought that if nothing unexpected happened, she would probably never see him again in her lifetime, and this was the only thing that could prove that person's appearance.
"Although I don't know your name, I will remember you until I die."
Lu Sheng silently said to himself, and started his new life. He left Tianyu and worked on his own, acting seriously and steadily.
It wasn't until a year later when she sat at the Magnolia Awards ceremony, looking at the blinding spotlight, that she became a little nervous.
"The winner of the 42nd Magnolia Award for Best Actress is——
Lu Sheng! "
Lu Sheng stood up slowly, his face was pale and cold, and his dark eyes glanced sideways in the flash light with a radiant look that was shocking.
She walked up to the podium under the spotlight of the crowd, and immediately saw the familiar people below. Ji Yahan nodded gently at her, her eyes full of joy for her, while Wan Jinci hesitated to speak, with a complicated and somewhat guilty expression...
Lu Sheng just glanced at him lightly. Wan Jinci was a good actor and dedicated, and he was considered her idol. She had helped him once and deliberately sent away someone who had bad intentions towards him, but later...
Wan Jinci apologized to her, but she did not accept it, and the two of them deliberately avoided various collaborations.
"Thank you, everyone. Thank you to everyone here. To be honest, I didn't expect that I would receive this award..."
She smiled gently, openly and sincerely, the light from the stage fell on her brows and on her slender fingers holding the trophy, as if all the light in the room was poured on her alone.
The girl is only in her twenties, but she has already achieved the Grand Slam of Best Actress. This trophy is too light to suppress the girl's talent, and this trophy is too heavy, as it took two lifetimes to arrive.
Standing on it, she thought a lot.
All the regrets in the movies will have an ending, but life does not. She just wants to be herself and not ask to be as great as her parents, but just want to have a clear conscience.
"My name is Lu Sheng, the daughter of a drug enforcement police officer. I love my parents, and I also love the thousands of lands that my parents protect just like me. I have forgotten how long it took me to be able to stand here."
