Lu Jinyu stood by the window on the second floor's bedroom. As he watched the red sportscar drive further and further away, finally disappearing from his line of sight.
Even after five years, even after he liked his daughter to the bone, he still didn't love himself.
He didn't want to do even the slightest bit of love, even if it meant pretending.
She was disappointed to the extreme by this man and laughed to herself. Lu Jinyu, what kind of eyes did you have back then? Why must you like this man?
Why?
The red sports car drove off for a distance, and Huo Shengxuan stopped the car by the side of the road.
He was clear about the story of how he had to beg for forgiveness. Originally, he had wanted to get away with it, but now, it seemed impossible.
For his daughter, he was willing to give it his all this time.
Wasn't it just a request for punishment?
In this world, there was no such thing as not making mistakes.
After thinking about this, he lifted up the car and opened the trunk to take a look. He actually found a thin rope inside.
He took the rope back to the driver's seat. Remembering that there were no branches, he got off the car and went to the side of the road to break a branch.
He took off the dark blue striped shirt from his upper body and threw it in the front passenger seat. Then, he tied a branch to his waist with a rope. After everything was secured, he turned the car around and drove back to the Lu family villa.
In less than ten minutes, the red sports car drove into the main entrance of the Lu family villa.
It was outside of Lu Jincheng's expectations for him to return so quickly, but it was certainly outside Lu Jinyu's expectations as well.
She stood by the window and lifted the curtains slightly to watch the man in the yard.
The car door opened, and Huo Shengxuan walked out bare-chested. What was funny was that there was actually a branch tied to his back.
Lu Jinyu pursed his lips, turned his head to look at the door, and immediately locked it behind him.
When he went back to the window, he discovered that Huo Shengxuan did not enter the living room. Instead, he directly knelt down by the side of the carriage, and shouted towards Lu Jinyu's room with his head raised.
"Jin Yu!" I'm here to beg for forgiveness! I'm sorry about the past! I shouldn't have doubted you, much less wronged you! I know I was wrong! Furthermore, he was ridiculously wrong! Can you give me a chance on behalf of my daughter? Jin Yu, I'm sorry! "
Lu Jincheng truly did not expect that the Huo Shengxuan this time around would completely act like a true man.
He looked at the door, exhorted everyone to not go out of the living room, then turned around and went upstairs.
"Knock, knock, knock ~ ~ ~"
There was a knock on the door, Lu Jinyu who was in the courtyard had turned around and opened the door.
When he saw his big brother at the door, he turned around and sat down on the sofa.
"Jinyu, aren't you going to go down and see him?"
"What's so good about him? He just knelt there, and I've been wronged for years. "
Why should she forgive him when he kneels?
Besides, who would really know if he was sincere to her?
Lu Jincheng glanced at his sister, then walked to the window to look downstairs. That person was still shouting at the top of his lungs.
He sat down opposite of Lu Jinyu and Lu Jincheng said slowly, "What you said is right. This person has hurt your heart time and time again. "If that's the case, then let him kneel there. I want to see how long he can last."
Lu Jinyu bit his lips and did not say a word.
"If you can't hold on any longer, come down. I'll go down first. "
"Mm …"
Based on his understanding of Huo Shengxuan in the past, Lu Jinyu thought that as long as he did not bother with him, he would definitely leave before long.
But today, he seemed to have made up his mind. He actually knelt in the yard until noon.
The summer's sunlight was very vicious, shining on Huo Shengxuan's bare back, causing him to quickly sweat profusely.
Lu Jincheng could no longer bear to watch, so he got up and walked to Huo Shengxuan's side.
"Jinyu doesn't want to see you, you should go back."
Huo Shengxuan shook his head, perspiring profusely. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face, then said in a hoarse voice while looking at Lu Jincheng: "Big Brother, you can go in. It's too hot here. If Jin Yu doesn't come down today, I will always be kneeling here. "
Lu Jincheng looked at him in silence for a few seconds, but in the end, he turned and walked back into the living room.
Originally, he only came out to test Huo Shengxuan, to see if he still had the confidence to persevere on.
After hearing what he said, he finally had some confidence.
As he walked into the living room, Cheng Xiao held a cup of water and walked over: "Give this cup of water to him to drink, what if he gets sunstroke on such a hot day?"
Lu Jincheng took the cup of water from his wife's hand and held her hand as he led her into the dining room.
Cheng Xiao rolled his eyes at him. "What are you saying? He's your brother-in-law, and you don't feel the slightest bit sorry for him? "
"Don't even mention kneeling here till heat stroke, even if he were to kneel for a month, he would still have to kneel. How much pain had Jin Yu suffered in order to give birth to Jia Jia? All these years, I brought Jia Jia abroad by myself. Does the person outside know about the hardships she suffered? "
Cheng Xiao looked at the door of the hall, and nodded in agreement: "If you say it like that, then you should really punish him."
"Of course. Let's go and eat."
During lunch time, Lu Jinyu went downstairs to eat with his elder brother and elder sister-in-law. The three of them sat in the dining hall, not saying anything.
Even if he changed the subject, it didn't take him long to fall into an awkward situation.
Lu Jinyu had not eaten much lunch before he went upstairs alone.
He thought of another person kneeling in the courtyard downstairs and felt extremely irritated.
There were several times when he walked to the window and looked at the man under the scorching sun. His heart would always unconsciously soften a little.
But when she thought about what she had been through all these years, she shut the window and went to sit by the bed and take a nap with her head covered.
Lu Jinyu lay on the bed, tossing and turning. He couldn't sleep, so he got up and went to the study room on the opposite side, put on his headphones and listened to the music and played games.
Time passed really quickly like this. Unknowingly, night had arrived.
Lu Jinyu looked at Huo Shengxuan by the window several times. That man had really made up his mind this time, if he didn't get her forgiveness, he definitely wouldn't leave.
After eating a few mouthfuls of dinner, Lu Jinyu went upstairs.
She didn't believe that the man would continue to kneel down even though it was already this late.
Back in her room, she washed up and went to bed to read. Around nine o'clock, she turned off the light and went to bed.
"Rumble ~ ~ ~ ~"
Suddenly, the sound of thunder came from outside the window, followed by a blinding bolt of lightning that streaked across the night sky.
It lit up the whole room.
Lu Jinyu suddenly sat up from his bed, suddenly remembering the weather forecast from last night.
There will be heavy rain tonight.
