Chapter 150 This is called being sick

The smile on Lu Fengqing's face vanished instantly, and three words flashed through her mind: spoilsport.

It turns out that his silence was only temporary; he had no intention of letting her go.

Lu Fengqing tried to pull her hand away, but couldn't. Knowing she couldn't escape it today, she said in a muffled voice, "What's the use of telling you?"

If she had told him she was pregnant back then, he would have rushed back. At that time, they were still in school and at an age where they relied on their elders for survival. Gu's father had also become a vegetable. Without his support, how could he possibly stand up to the powerful Gu Jinhong? With just a surge of passion?

Besides, if Gu Jinhong doesn't like her, he might not like her child either, which could prevent her from having a baby.

Back then, she was just like Lu Yuhan is now, even more stubborn than Lu Yuhan. Love was paramount in her mind; to put it bluntly, she was love-struck. She loved Gu Suixing and their child, so she insisted on keeping the child despite opposition and without considering the consequences. She couldn't tolerate the slightest mishap to the child.

Just like my aunt said, it's better to keep it a secret than to put everyone in such a difficult situation.

As for why he didn't say anything after he came back, she didn't know if he had changed his mind, and besides, she wasn't raising the child herself, so what could she say or how could she say it?

No. Gu Suixing answered in his heart, closed his eyes, and slowly tightened his grip on her hand.

Why didn't she tell him about her pregnancy, or why the child was raised by Lu Fenghe? Actually, he could guess even if she didn't say it.

After his father became a vegetable in a car accident, he was indeed in a situation where he had almost nothing. Even if he knew, he might not be able to return to the country. His grandfather would not let him come back, and even if he did, he might not be able to protect his mother and son.

He still remembers his grandfather's words, "What do you have to fight me with?" From that moment on, he realized how important money, power, and status were, and that it was better to rely on oneself than on others. So, while studying abroad, he also made the most of every minute to strengthen himself.

Uncle Xie said he worked too hard, but if he hadn't worked hard, he wouldn't have everything he has now.

He never wants to be in that situation again in his life.

Before he went abroad, he repeatedly told Huo Huai'an to take good care of her, and Huo Huai'an did so. She was fine, but he never expected that Huo Huai'an would hide such an important thing from him.

As for why Rui Rui was raised by Lu Feng, it's not hard to understand. She was only nineteen years old at the time, and it was already difficult enough for her to become pregnant out of wedlock and give birth, let alone while she was still in school. Even if she wanted to raise the child herself, her elders would not have agreed.

There are many examples of parents giving away their children after their daughters become pregnant out of wedlock, both in ordinary families and wealthy families. It's incredibly fortunate that Rui Rui was able to stay in the Lu family. After all, she was only nineteen years old at the time, and she had a long life ahead of her. Old Master Lu and Old Madam Lu felt sorry for her and wouldn't let this child burden her for the rest of her life. In addition, with his mother-in-law as a precedent, he could imagine how much the two elders opposed her keeping the child back then.

If he had known about this back then, he probably wouldn't have agreed to her keeping the child, but if she wanted to, he wouldn't have stopped her.

Ultimately, it's all his fault.

If he's careful, she won't get pregnant.

If he had been stronger back then, she wouldn't have had such a hard time.

He wasn't unangry when he learned about this; he was furious, so furious that his breath seemed to be shooting sparks. He just didn't know who to be angry at.

It was his fault. He had no right to get angry at her, nor could he bear to. He could only be angry with himself.

Lu Fengqing looked at Rui Rui and recalled what happened back then. "I wanted to keep him and raise him myself. I felt that I could raise him very well and it wouldn't interfere with his studies. I promised that I wouldn't do anything like my mother, but my grandparents just wouldn't let me."

In her eyes, Rui Rui was the fruit of her love with Gu Suixing, but in the eyes of everyone in the Lu family, this child was just an accident that she had forced to keep when she was young and ignorant.

"They planned to give Rui Rui to a couple who were preparing to settle abroad. My aunt was afraid that I would be reluctant to part with him, so she simply wouldn't let me hold him or feed him. She said that if we weren't close to him, he wouldn't become attached to me, and it wouldn't be so sad when we parted."

Back then, she was only focused on keeping Rui Rui, thinking that giving birth to him would be enough. She didn't think about what to do after he was born, what he would do, or what she would do.

I used to believe that nothing is impossible for a willing heart, but I later discovered that reality is more complicated than I imagined. Some things are not enough to just have the will; you also need the ability to match the task. Otherwise, you will eventually have to compromise.

In the period immediately after Rui Rui was taken away, Lu Fengqing's mental state was not good. She would often hear Rui Rui crying for no reason. This situation continued until her grandmother fainted and was hospitalized again. The fear of losing her surged into her heart again, and she finally came to her senses.

Dou Meijuan repeatedly reminded her that a child is a mother's everything, but cannot be a mother's everything. Ultimately, people have to live for themselves. The fact that the child has been sent away is a done deal. Even if she confines herself to the house and thinks about it, she can't change anything. She will only make her relatives worry about her.

The most important thing is that the child is alive and healthy; whether he is by your side or not is secondary.

It's better for Lu Feng to take the child in than for him to be taken abroad by that couple.

She eventually accepted the outcome, made peace with herself, stopped trying to hold on to what she couldn't keep, and began to try to forget the child and live her own life.

Women are passionate, yet also ruthless.

“I used to hate my grandparents and resent them. I thought they were cold-blooded and cruel.”

"And then what?"

"I know they mean well, but I still don't quite understand."

Gu Suixing listened to her quietly.

“Lu Yuhan is a terrible person, and I don’t want to acknowledge her as my sister anymore. But when I heard that she was pregnant, my first reaction was that the child couldn’t be kept, and then I could understand.”

Lu Fengqing thought to herself that she had given birth to a son. If she had given birth to a daughter, and raised her to the age of eighteen or nineteen, and then her daughter suddenly became pregnant with another man's child and that man left, Lu Fengqing felt that she would never let her daughter keep the child.

Only those who have been parents can truly understand their parents' hearts.

Gu Suixing glanced at the little guy lying on her body, smacking his lips. "Luckily, it's a boy."

If his daughter were to be lured away by some scoundrel at eighteen and give birth to that scoundrel's child at nineteen, he would be so angry he'd die of rage and crawl out of his coffin.

"You'll be discharged tomorrow," Gu Suixing said. "To see your grandfather."

Lu Fengqing hesitated for a moment, "Why don't we wait until we feel better before going?"

Gu Suixing raised an eyebrow, "Want to heal your leg before breaking it again?"

"..." Okay.

It's good to go now, at least I won't get beaten up again.

Lu Fengqing thought that after taking Gu Suixing back to meet his grandfather, she would then confess to Rui Rui that she was his mother.

-

It was Mr. Xie's 80th birthday, and two hours before the banquet officially began, the parking lot outside the hotel was already filled with all kinds of luxury cars.

As they entered the banquet hall, Huo Huai Sui linked arms with Huo Huai An, maintaining a cool and aloof expression, and forcibly refrained from looking around, as if afraid others would think she was ignorant.

But her own brother wouldn't let her off the hook, calling her "expressionless?"

Huo Huai Sui thought her brother had something wrong with his eyes. "I call it being aloof."

Huo Huai'an: "That's called being sick."

Huo Huai Sui was so angry he turned into a pufferfish.

There were many people at Mr. Xie's place, so Huo Huai'an didn't plan to go and join the fun. Instead, he took his sister to see Xie Chaowan first.

Xie Chaowan looked at Huo Huaisui, "What's this?"

"My younger sister, Huo Huai Sui." Huo Huai An turned his head to Huo Huai Sui and said, "Call her Aunt Wan."

Huo Huai Sui obediently called out to people.

Huo Huai'an was about to speak again when he suddenly saw Xie Chaowan's expression change. Following her gaze, he saw Xie Chaoyin and Tang Ya standing at the corner of the stairs.

The two were talking about something; Tang Ya was somewhat agitated, while Xie Chaoyin's face was full of disgust and impatience.

"You bitch!" Xie Chaowan hissed through gritted teeth, lifting her skirt and striding over.

Huo Huai'an's eyes flickered slightly, and he followed.
