Luo Qingyu accompanied her at the side for a long time, but little Jun Hao was still locked inside the room. He had spent a lot of time in the room reading the picture book he had made, over and over again, as if he did not know how to get tired. It had been a long time since he had eaten. Luo Qingyu wanted to advise him, but he could never hear her voice.
He had not slept for the entire night, and now that he had had two meals without any food, he was extremely weak. However, he didn't seem to feel anything, only flipping through his picture book.
After looking at it for a long time, he suddenly stopped looking and just sat there in a daze. Old Housekeeper had already been knocking on the door for a long time now, he came to deliver food to Lu Junhao. When Father Lu brought Lu Juncheng and her stepmother out, no one else saw it. Old Housekeeper saw it very clearly, so Lu Junhao lonely returned to the room.
Old Housekeeper was very sad. He knew about this young master and he had always wanted to make Father Lu happy, but Father Lu had never cared about him. Father Lu didn't care, but he cared. He knocked on the door again and again, waiting outside for him to come out. When the food was cold, she would bring it back to heat. When it was hot, it would become cold. When it was cold, she would bring it back to heat. Again and again.
The empress of Lu Jun sat there blankly as if he didn't hear anything. Her eyes were empty, devoid of any signs of life. Luo Qingyu looked at him as if he was about to pass away like the Lu Mai.
He seemed to be thinking about something, but also seemed to be in a daze.
After Lu Jun left, she had only been thinking about why Father Lu did not want to marry him. Why was it that no matter what he did, Father Lu could not like him? He had lost her mother, and now he had only her father. But what difference was there between this father and nothing? Where in the world did he do badly? Would the Father Lu really hate him that much?
He could not understand, he was still young, and after a while, he could not understand, why was he his son too, and the only son he had in his eyes, Lu Juncheng, whom he had not known for long? He didn't understand. He really didn't understand.
He suddenly remembered the words that the Lu Mai had told him before he passed away: No matter what happens, he must be strong and walk down this path. Lu Mai would definitely not harm him, he only needed to listen to Lu Mai. Since the Father Lu was unwilling to pay attention to his son, he would pretend to not have a father.
It was as if he suddenly understood. Why did he feel sad for someone who didn't care about him? Why did he have to make himself so miserable? He was the eldest son of the Lu family, the future heir to Lu. He shouldn't be like this, and Lu Mai had told him so many times to be strong, so he definitely should not disappoint her.
He was no longer in a daze. He moved, but his eyes were still looking at the picture book. However, they were no longer filled with sadness. His eyes were filled with determination. When Luo Qingyu saw him movhehe was very happy in his heart. He thought that he had figured it out, but when he saw that his eyes were still looking at the painting, she couldn't help but become worried for him. She looked at him for a long time and knew that he had finally thought it through, because the look in his eyes was different. He was the one who had truly transformed.
Lu Junhao picked up the picture book that he painstakingly made, and without even blinking his eyes, he tore off the picture book. Page after page, he tore off a portion of each page. Luo Qingyu was curious, he went over to take a look and realised that he had torn apart all the parts of the painting that contained Father Lu s.
Looking at Lu Junhao's expression, she knew that he had finally thought it through and would probably not be sad anymore because of Father Lu. Luo Qingyu cried. She was so happy that she cried.
After tearing apart all the scenes regarding the Father Lu, he stood up, but due to not eating and not sleeping for the entire night, he swayed twice, as if she was about to fall down. Luo Qingyu hurried over to support him, but she could not even touch him. He thought he would fall, but he clenched his teeth and steadied himself.
He walked towards the door step by step, each step determined. It was as if he had grown up overnight, but there was no warmth in his eyes, only indifference and hypocrisy. Luo Qingyu covered his mouth as tears continuously flowed down his face. So this was the reason for her indifference. He had actually suffered so much, suffered so much.
Lu Junhao finally walked to the door and opened it. Outside, the Old Housekeeper was still waiting and the food was still steaming hot. When Old Housekeeper saw him come out, he was extremely excited and cried in happiness.
"Young master, young master, you've finally come out. You must be hungry. Eat some food, it's still warm. Hurry up and eat."
"Grandpa Butler, thank you. I am indeed hungry."
He took the food from Old Housekeeper. Old Housekeeper originally thought that he would turn around and return to his room to eat, but he did not. He walked towards the dining hall and continued to eat.
"Young master …"
Old Housekeeper was very pleased to see him like this. He felt that this child had grown up.
"Grandpa butler, you should come over and eat too."
"Sigh, that's great, that's great."
Old Housekeeper quickly ran over and wiped away his tears. He had lived for so long, yet why was he still crying so easily? The more he lived, the more he would return. He was even inferior to a child.
On the surface, it looked as if Lu Junhao was smiling very happily like usual, as if he was still the same as before. However, she knew that he was no longer the same him as before. He was no longer the warm and sunny boy from before. It was because he changed, that he now had Lu Junhao.
From then on, Lu Junhao no longer wanted to make the Father Lu happy like he did in the past, he just sat there like he always did. He was like an outsider, looking at the happy life of his family.
Because Father Lu was very concerned about Lu Junhao, she did not notice any changes to Lu Junhao. He probably had always thought he was like that, really a fatherless father.
The scene changed again. By this time, Lu Junhao had already grown up, and was already a young lad who was about to attend high school. He was liked by a lot of people because he was both handsome and outstanding. However, he was extremely cold. Because of the matters of his childhood, he could no longer trust others.
Lu Junhao had had enough of this lifestyle, he wanted to find a different way of life. So he had been thinking about going abroad. He wanted to train himself abroad. Right now, he was not strong enough, not strong enough to the degree that he could meet the requirements of the Lu Mai. So he kept asking to look at him with such a high intensity that Luo Qingyu felt sad seeing him like this.
There wasn't much of a problem with studying abroad. His grades were already outstanding, so the school was willing to give him the opportunity to study abroad. When he obtained this chance, he felt that he could definitely become a strong person in Lu Mai's words.
"Father, we gave me the opportunity to study abroad. I'm going abroad." Lu Junhao said to the Father Lu.
After the Father Lu heard this, she nodded and agreed. The probability of this son appearing in front of him was too low. It was as if he didn't see him at all. What difference did it make whether he left the country or not? If he went out, then the happy life of his family would really start, so he didn't hesitate to send him abroad.
On the day that Lu Junhao left, the Lu and Lu Mothers did not come to see him off. The only ones who came were the retired Old Housekeeper. When he heard that Lu Junhao was going abroad, he was extremely reluctant.
"Young master, you must take good care of your body when you're overseas. Don't not eat like you used to."
"Grandpa butler, you are no longer my housekeeper. Can you stop calling me young master? Call me by my name. In my heart, you are the same as my family."
"After so many years, I'm already used to it. I can't change it. Have you remembered what I just said?"
"Yes, yes."
"Young Master, it's fine if you go abroad to study. At least you don't have to stay in that warm home. It's just that you live by yourself abroad. It's really hard on you."
"No, don't worry. I can take care of myself."
The Old Housekeeper talked a lot more and instructed him a lot more. Only when he was very close to the time of departure did he reluctantly let him go.
He waved goodbye from afar, his eyes already filled with tears. All these years, he had been watching Lu Junhao, seeing that he was no longer sad because of the Father Lu, and watching him become more and more outstanding. This time, he would marry a foreigner. By the time he returned, he would have become an even more outstanding person.
Only, he did not know if he would still have the chance to see Old Housekeeper's murky eyes filled with tears. He wanted to live a little longer. He wanted to see the day when he became strong. He wanted to see the day when he married and had children. However, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to wait for that day.
Lu Junhao left the country just like that. Luo Qingyu also watched as he slowly transformed, until he became the extremely cold and indifferent Lu Junhao that he was now. did not know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for him. But there was no other way. If she was on the same side as him, on the same side, she would have made the same choice.
She watched him get on the plane and did not follow. She thought that she had been with him for a long time, had seen a lot of his experiences, known his childhood, and perhaps it was time for her to leave. This was because she knew that after this trip to the foreign country, he had truly become a powerful expert who stood on the top of the world.
She turned around, and behind him, Lu Junhao also suddenly turned around, looking at Luo Qingyu's direction. He shouldn't be able to see her clearly, but he seemed to have sensed something, and continued to look in that direction. Luo Qingyu had already turned around so it was natural that he wouldn't be able to see that he was also looking at her.
Lu Junhao only felt that it was as if someone who had accompanied him for a very long time was about to leave, but he did not understand why he had such a thought. He had been alone all these years, and there was no one by his side. Could it be that he had gone mad? Why would he suddenly come up with such a thought?
Luo Qingyu had spied on a lot of Luo Qingyu's privacy, and the pain that was buried deep within his heart. He felt that he had let down Lu Junhao. Since he already knew, then there was no way for his to act as if he didn't know. In the future, she would do her best to help Lu Junhao.
He hoped that the conflict between the two of them would be less, and that they could get along well. Don't be like in the past, Luo Qingyu thought to himself.
