Chapter 700: Fading Away (Memories)
The lesson of Lu Jingchuan's premature love always reminds him that he should not reveal his inner feelings easily.
Fortunately, her appearance was always allowed by the old man.
Once, he thought he had hidden well enough, but later he realized that the old man actually saw everything about him, and it was a trap set specifically for him, waiting for him to fall into it.
"Let me tell you there's a very handsome boy in my class."
"This very handsome boy, do you like him?" he asked nervously.
Now she has grown into a graceful young lady, and she is pretty enough. He also knows that she is very eye-catching.
"It's not just me, many girls like him."
This sentence made him feel unhappy immediately, and he wanted to know who that person was.
"What's his name?"
"Ye Qing."
He remembered this name. She liked him, and the jealousy in his heart made him make a decision to get rid of this Ye guy!
As she grew up, they began to grow apart.
She didn't go to Lu's house as often as before, and they started to communicate by mobile phone.
One day, in front of the Lu family’s door.
She took a box out of her bag.
"For you."
"Why did you give it to me?"
"Do you want it or not? If not, I'll give it to Lu Jingchuan."
Taking the box, she said happily, "You accepted my gift to you, so can I be your girlfriend?"
"How old are you? Now is the time for you to study."
"As if I didn't say anything just now."
After she finished speaking, she left angrily. He stood there in a daze and could only watch her leave indifferently.
The old man, who had seen this scene a long time ago, suddenly asked him.
"I saw Ran coming just now, why didn't she go into the house?"
"She said she had something to do."
"Oh, something's up. She handed something to you, so why didn't you take it?"
"It's too expensive. I can't afford it." He wanted to express in his heart that she was still young, which forced him to refuse. When he saw her leave angrily, he felt a little regretful.
"Do you remember the kid I took you to Jincheng to meet when you were a kid?"
He had long forgotten that person.
He didn't speak.
"Her family background is good enough for you. She is the one I have arranged for you to marry. When you take over the prosperous world in the future, I will arrange a marriage for you."
"You are married, so don't worry too much, little girl from the Lin family. Besides, I also intend to take Ran as my goddaughter. With this relationship, it's not appropriate for you two to be together."
When he heard this, his heart skipped a beat, which meant that the old man knew that they had been unusually close recently and was reminding him.
That day, he did not answer the old man for the first time.
After she left angrily that day, they didn't see or contact each other for a while.
Lu Jingcheng's school was participating in a competition, and the old man asked him to accompany him. When he heard that Lu Jingchuan had a competition today, he agreed and wanted to go see her.
It was only when he arrived at school that he realized that it was a campus ballroom dance competition that she and Lu Jingcheng participated in together.
She and Lu Jingcheng danced hand in hand.
The old man looked at him from time to time and said something, "I don't think we can accept Ran as our granddaughter."
"I think she and Jingcheng are a good match."
He really wanted to say that he didn't see how they were a good match, but he didn't dare to say it for fear that the old man would know his true thoughts.
Every year on their birthdays, they would give each other gifts. This year they had a conflict and I don’t know if he will still receive the gift.
Lu Jingchuan has been in love again recently. The old man heard about it and asked someone to find out about the other party.
"Jingchuan has been getting close to a girl recently. Do you know about this?"
"I don't know." He had heard some rumors that it was a girl named Yuan Xinmu, but Lu Jingchuan's affairs had nothing to do with him, so there was no need for him to say anything and he denied it.
"I have other arrangements for Jingchuan's marriage. I have to go to Jincheng for a few days. As the eldest brother, you can come forward to mediate. These are the conditions for her." The old man said as he took out a check and a photo of the girl.
"I think it would be better for Grandfather to talk things over with Jingchuan himself."
"If you can get this done with me, I'll give you one million as start-up capital and won't interfere with what you do with it."
He originally refused to do it, but the temptation of one million dollars was great enough, so he had to agree.
He used the photo to trick people into looking for someone, but he didn't find anyone. Lu Jingchuan, who also came to look for someone, didn't expect anyone and thought he had driven them away in advance.
"Lu Jingshen, what do you mean?"
He was holding a check in his hand, and Lu Jingchuan saw it.
He originally came here with a purpose, but since he didn't see anyone, he didn't say anything.
However, he didn't know at that time that because he was greedy for the temptation of one million, he was accidentally caught by Lu Jingchuan, and this incident became Lu Jingchuan's greatest hatred for him, which also indirectly led to the beginning of their estrangement.
At that time, he didn't know that Lu Jingchuan had secretly said a lot of divisive words to Lin Jiaran because of a misunderstanding of the matter.
Every year on birthdays, they would give each other birthday presents. This year they had a conflict and I don’t know if he will be able to receive his birthday present as scheduled.
That night, the old man's sudden order allowed him to officially enter the golden age.
Some time ago, he used the funds given to him by his father for a task to start a business, which is still ongoing. He does not want to enter a prosperous era.
Entering the prosperous era meant that he would have to get engaged to someone he had not met for a long time in the future. He could not accept such a thing happening, and he had already had the idea in his mind.
"I don't go into the prosperous times."
"What do you want to do if you don't enter Shengshi? Have you forgotten what I told you before? You and the little girl from the Shen family have been engaged for a long time. In the future, you can only marry a girl from the Shen family. Entering Shengshi is a must for you."
"I want to make my own way."
"Go on your own? Don't forget that what you have now is given by the Lu family. You can leave, but the prerequisite is that you have enough ability to get rid of the Lu family."
Coming out of the study, Lin Qing appeared at the Lu family.
"There is something I think I need to remind you of."
"What do you want to say?"
"To keep you away from my sister, of course."
"keep away?"
"I know you two have been having conflicts recently. There is an age gap between you. If you really care about her, you should not delay her at this time."
“I didn’t seem to do anything.”
"It's fine if you don't."
The old man's pressure made him think about leaving Ancheng and going abroad to make a living.
She had been busy studying recently, so to avoid disturbing her, he chose to leave first and talk later.
Before leaving, he sent a message to inform others, thinking that he would not receive a reply, but the message he sent was replied immediately.
[You are with my sister, right? That's why you refused the gift I gave you that day]
He didn't even know when he had gotten close to Lin Qing.
Lin Qing also sent a message at this time, asking him to admit the fact that they were together.
He didn't want to admit it and didn't reply.
There was no further record of news between them.
