Chapter 118

Finally, Mr. Lu made the decision that he would not use the last resort unless it was absolutely necessary. Lu Mingfeng did not say a word during the whole process because he was the one who proposed this plan. Although the old man refused to believe it, he still sent Uncle Lu over there to make full preparations for a way out.

"Mingfeng, do you think the Lu family can get through this difficult time?" Lu Mingcheng was on the balcony looking at the moon in the sky. Maybe it was because of the cold weather, he felt that the late moon made him unusually lonely.

"Yes..." Lu Mingfeng didn't know how to answer. The Lu family had indeed overcome difficulties before, but the price was too high. However, he is very greedy now and he doesn't want to lose everyone around him.

"Why doesn't he talk like you? Although you use a positive tone, I feel like you are afraid." Lu Mingcheng turned around and looked at him. "What are you afraid of?"

…

The next morning, Jiang He stretched out of the room and rubbed his aching forehead. He didn't know if it was because he didn't have Lu Mingfeng as a natural pillow, but he didn't sleep all night and kept having nightmares. The most outrageous thing was that he actually dreamed that Lu Mingfeng had a sign with unclear words hung on him and was pushed forward. There were onlookers on both sides of the road, who kept throwing things at him, which woke him up.

The first thing I did when I woke up was to look at the calendar on the table. After tearing off a page, I finally calmed down. Then I couldn't fall asleep. I kept my eyes open and was in a daze until dawn when I fell asleep again.

"This is a hangover soup. Don't drink so much next time." When Cui Li saw him come out, he put a bowl of sobering soup in front of him, then touched his forehead and said.

"Okay, got it." Jiang He nodded, then picked up the bowl of sobering soup and started drinking it. He drank the whole bowl of sobering soup in one breath and felt a little better.

"Wash up first, and then eat while the food is hot." Cui Li saw that he had finished drinking the sobering soup, and then he let him go to the bedroom to wash up with relief.

"Hey." Jiang He looked at Cui Li's back as he entered the kitchen. A warm feeling passed through his heart, filling up the emptiness left after Lu Mingfeng left. It was no longer so empty. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he walked towards the bedroom.

Because it was the fourteenth day of the twelfth lunar month that day, Jiang He had no intention of going out to play. Instead, he helped his family prepare New Year's goods, so he followed Cui Li and carried things.

Cui Li's smile never stopped. Whenever he met someone he knew, he would inevitably pull Jiang He out for a walk. He would also chat with them with a smile. This made a group of grandmothers start to complain about their grandchildren. Cui Li would also belittle his own grandson after hearing this, and they enjoyed the chat very much.

"Aunt Cui, this is your grandson, right? He is so handsome! Much younger than those monkeys in our family." A woman who was also buying New Year's goods seemed to enjoy belittling her own child and kept complaining.

"Qingxiang, I don't like what you said. If your three children don't behave, where can we find such cute children?" Cui Yuran interrupted the other party directly. "When they come, they bring you a lot of cute things. We are so envious."

When the woman named Qingxiang heard this, she realized that she was not really taking pleasure in belittling her own child. When she heard Cui Qi boasting, a look of pride appeared on her face.
