Qin Zheng had heard that Lu Kewei's best friend in school was Ning An Ran's wife, Gu Zixi. Coincidentally, the two of them were also involved with two men who had been playing together since they were young. It was unknown what fate they had. As for Song Zixiu's little sister, Song Yuwei, she had never met her before, but she had heard Old Man Song joke before that their family's two children were not like their mother, Su Hongyu. Fortunately, they weren't like Su Hongyu, and based on her words, Qin Zheng could guess that Song Yuwei was a good girl. But there was no way she could openly tell him, so she could only mention it a little.
Hearing Qin Zheng's words, Lu Kangwei felt slightly more at ease.
Afterwards, the two of them continued to walk down the river, and Qin Zheng's expression became even more absent-minded. Lu Kewei knew that she had thought of the Xiao Yunfeng that she had mentioned earlier, the man that she would never be able to forget.
At that time, when she was sent to Edinburgh by Old Master Qin, her beloved teacher had said that he wanted to go with her. However, she had only persuaded him a little, and he had already given up. As for Xiao Yunfeng, he had quietly followed her to this place and had given up on everything within the country. What the two men actually did to her was already decided at that time, but she didn't understand at that time.
However, it was a pity that at that time, there was only another person in her heart, and that she had actually completely forgotten about such a man. She had even thought that all the good feelings she had for him stemmed from guilt and gratitude.
It was not as if they had never had a good time together. At that time, she was studying in Edinburgh and he stayed with her all day long. He often attended classes with her. He had also forcefully kissed her in the quiet campus. Even if people saw them there, probably no one would recognize the two from another country. When they were at home, the two of them had been very careful. Once they were abroad, Xiao Yunfeng had started to ignore everything else.
She remembered that after he passed away, his mother came here. She was clearly a dignified and graceful woman, but her despair made people feel as if the world was coming to an end. Even now, she still remembered the way that woman looked at her.
Afterwards, it wasn't as if no one else had chased after her. The family's old man could also be considered a famous scholar at the time, even among his students, he could still find a lot to suit her. But every time, she thought of a poem: Once the sea was difficult, but Wu Shan is not a cloud.
Seeing that it was late, Lu Kewei said that it was time to go back. Coincidentally, at this moment, Song Zhenxiu also called and told her to go to the amusement park to meet him.
Lu Kewei hung up the phone. He didn't know what to say to Qin Zheng, but Qin Zheng took the initiative and said, "You can go if Zi Xiu calls you. I still want to be by myself."
Lu Kewei naturally agreed. However, he still said with some worry, "Aunt, you should go back as soon as possible. Don't let me go home. You're still outside."
Qin Zheng nodded with a smile and replied, "You don't have to worry. Go and have some fun with Zi Xiu." It wasn't that she agreed with her relationship with Song Zixiu, but she felt more and more powerless towards a lot of things, especially those from the past. Rather than continuing to oppose the idea, he might as well let her and Song Zixiu get along a bit more.
Lu Kewei took a few more worried glances at her before leaving in large strides.
When Qin Zheng saw Lu Kewei leave, she stopped walking and stood in place for a long time. She had thought that she had almost forgotten about the past, but now, it was like she was seeing a movie. She couldn't help but laugh at herself. Perhaps it was because she was old and her favorite thing to do was to reminisce about the past.
After standing for a while longer, she could not help but mutter to herself as she looked into the river, "Yun Feng, I feel that my body is getting weaker and weaker. Who knows, I might come to accompany you in the near future."
When Lu Kewei arrived at the entrance of the amusement park, Song Zhenguo took Song Qingying to a place to rest. Song Qingying had been playing for an entire afternoon and it was obvious that she was tired. She curled up in Song Zixiu's arms drowsily. When she saw Lu Kewei, she only let out a sickly cry, "Mom, you're finally here."
Once again, Lu Ke Wei saw that the little girl's body was really weak.
Song Zixiu held his daughter with one hand and held onto Lu Kewei's hand with the other. He smiled and said, "We're hungry. Let's find a place to eat and have a family of three dinner together."
Luke took his hand and nodded with a smile.
Because Song Qingying looked like she was about to fall asleep at any time, Song Zixiu had no choice but to find a fast food restaurant to eat, filling his stomach first before doing anything else. When the three of them got into the car, Song Qingying had already fallen asleep while leaning on Lu Kangwei's shoulder.
He patted Song Qingying on the back and said with regret as he drove, "I was thinking about where we could go alone, but now I can only wait for the next time."
"It's nothing. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Right now, let's hurry back home and let our baby sleep comfortably."
When the three of them returned home, Qin Zheng saw that the little girl was already asleep and said, "Leave the baby to me. Let her sleep with me tonight."
Of course, Lu Kewei wouldn't object. He helped Qin Zheng prepare a hot towel and wiped her hands and feet to make her sleep more comfortably. Qin Zheng quickly washed up and laid on the bed.
When Lu Kewei came out of Qin Zheng's bedroom, Song Zian was sitting in the living room, holding a flat plate as she watched the news. She went into the kitchen and poured a glass of pure water.
Song Zixiu saw her sitting next to him, so he smiled and said, "Auntie is quite tactful, even specially creating a chance for us to be alone. I'm sure she understands that a newlywed couple needs to cultivate their relationship." He even specifically emphasized on the last few words, afraid that Lu Kewei wouldn't be able to understand the meaning behind his words.
Lu Ke Wei glared at him. He also felt that it was a bit strange. In fact, Song Zixiu's words were a joke, but her heart was the clearest. Qin Zheng loved the little girl the most. Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, she also wanted to get along with the little girl.
Lu Kewei held onto the water and took a sip from time to time. "Zi Xiu, do you know of the Xiao family in the capital?"
Song Zixiu asked suspiciously, "Why did you ask about this all of a sudden?"
"Answer me first."
Song Zixiu lowered his doubts and replied: "The capital does not lack people who are wealthy and powerful. But even in a place like this, there are still a few top families. The Xiao family can be considered one of them." Even though An Ran and I have a good relationship, our family and An Ran's family are still quite different. The current head of the Ning family, An Ran's father, is one of the top figures in the domestic political scene. "As for our family, even though Grandfather's rank was not low before, he left the military to do business later on. Although our family has never lacked money, we were unable to compare to the Ning family."
Lu Kewei was shocked once again. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "I never thought that Xiao Yang's grandfather would be so amazing. Suddenly, I felt that it was a good thing for the baby to find an ordinary family to marry."
Song Zixiu smiled, "You asked me to tell you about the Xiao family. I didn't say much, but you went too far."
"Hurry up and tell me, it's just my imagination."
Song Zi continued with a smile, "The Xiao family is similar to the Ning family, but they may not be as powerful as the Ning family on the surface, but the Xiao family is much more powerful than the Ning family. They are big families that survived the Qing dynasty."
"Mmm." Kroft nodded. Qin Zheng had also mentioned this to her.
The Xiao family can be considered a diplomatic family. The one that is about the same age as me has also developed quite well, and seems to have been working at the embassy in Europe. I heard that he is going to be transferred back to the capital soon. It was rare for Song Zixiu to praise someone so highly. It could be seen that the Xiao family was indeed a powerful family.
It was no wonder that the Xiao family had sent their child abroad for such a long time in the past. It was likely that the Xiao family had initially wanted Xiao Yun Feng to develop into a diplomat.
Song Zi Xiu looked at the thoughtful Lu Kewei and asked, "I've already answered your question. Now tell me why you're suddenly interested in the Xiao family."
"In the past, there was a man who liked his aunt. Due to an accident, his aunt accidentally killed him. All these years, Aunt had been feeling very sorry for him, so she wanted me to go back and help her pay respects. That person's name is Xiao Yunfeng, help me find out where he's buried, I need to go and take a look when we get back. "
Song Zixiu was also surprised. "I heard about my aunt's scandal at school and the incident with the professor. Could that person be the Xiao Yunfeng that you were talking about?"
Luke looked at him and nodded.
Song Zixiu sighed again, "I've heard of this matter before, but I really didn't expect that person to be from the Xiao family." Then, he comforted her, "You don't have to worry about this, I'll definitely find the place where he was buried."
It was probably because the topic was rather heavy that the two of them didn't have anything to say for a while, and were both sighing endlessly about what had happened that year.
Seeing that the day of their departure was getting closer, Little Plum also began to call out to Lu Ke Wei frequently, afraid that once they separated, they would never be able to see each other again.
Today, Lu Kewei put on a woolen coat, a coat and a windbreaker. He even put on some light makeup before leaving. When Song Zixiu saw that he wanted to send her out, he naturally would accompany the little girl. In the end, it became the father and son pair sending Lu Kewei to meet Little Plum.
The meeting took place in an open-air café, and Little Mei seemed to have a soft spot for coffee in a few of Edinburgh's restaurants.
However, when Song Zixiu parked the car, he immediately saw the familiar black Audi. He immediately turned his head and calmly said to Lu Kewei, "I have nothing to do later and will be very bored when I go back. How about I accompany you?"
Lu Kewei did not think too much into it, nor did he have any reason to refuse. He agreed without a second thought.
When he got out of the car and saw Little Mei, who was waving at him nonstop, and Luo Yunfei, who was sitting next to Little Mei, he suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She glanced at the calm Song Zixiu, then walked over to Little Mei's side.
Little Mei's gaze was completely attracted when she saw the little girl in Song Zixiu's arms. She stood up and smiled at Song Qingying. She tried her best to show a gentle and amiable expression as she sighed, "Such a cute little girl."
Song Zixiu quickly said, "Baby, call me auntie."
The baby smiled sweetly and called out, "Hello Auntie."
As soon as Little Mei was happy, she lowered her head and gave the little girl a kiss on her cheek. Song Qingying, who had a serious obsession with cleanliness, immediately frowned as she looked like she was about to cry. She even found a tissue to wipe her face, and a series of actions caused the expression on Little Mei's face to turn constipated, while the others didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After smiling for a while, he greeted Luo Yunfei, who he hadn't seen since the wedding, "Senior Brother Luo, long time no see."
"Little Mei told me that you guys would be leaving soon, and I'm afraid that I won't be coming back until I finish my studies. I don't know how long I'll have to wait before I can come out with Little Mei and meet you again."
"Senior brother, study hard. After you return home, you can develop properly. Perhaps in a short while, I'll be able to see the building you designed."
