Chapter 103 Drama Queen Father and Son
The Lu family home suddenly became deserted.
Lu Jin was clearing the table. He didn't think that just because he had a father-son relationship with Lu Qi, he was entitled to receive something for nothing. It was like how Lu Qi had given him a lot of pocket money, but he had never used it.
Lu Qi once said with a smile, "You are my and Ruoruo's son, and everything I have will eventually be yours."
At that time, Lu Jin simply replied, "When I am able, I will naturally take over everything from you."
Lu Qi just smiled when he heard this. He continued to transfer money to Lu Jin's card as usual. Whether Lu Jin used it or not was up to him.
Lu Qi looked at Lu Jin clearing the table. It was strange, really. This child didn't look like him, but he was so much like him in his bones.
He had already investigated beforehand and found that Lu Jin had not had a good life over the years. Perhaps it could be said that fate had never shown him any mercy, but the child had still managed to survive until now.
This is his child.
Even though Lu Qi didn't expect the child to be born, to this day, he can't help but think, "He truly is a child born to Ruoruo."
Since it is Ruoruo's child, it should be treated as a treasure, not just some random cat or dog that can rush up and bite it.
Lu Qi said, "After a while, I will help Hao Hui get out of the police station."
Lu Jin stacked the bowls and chopsticks together. He didn't raise his head or stop moving, and simply gave a faint "hmm".
Lu Qi laughed, "Aren't you going to ask me why I helped him? Maybe it's because I'm worried about Lu Chang'an. After all, I've taken care of him for so many years. Even if he's not my biological son, we've developed a father-son relationship."
Lu Jin looked up. "Since when have you started joking around?"
Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, then he burst out laughing with great joy.
Lu Jin went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Lu Qi also went upstairs in a good mood and entered a room with warm lighting.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and gently took the woman's hand. "Ruoruo, you have no idea how fake Lu Jin is. I bet you'll really enjoy teasing him and watching his serious demeanor crumble little by little. It'll be so much fun."
"Today I specially invited that kid's girlfriend over for dinner. You have no idea how interesting the look he gave me was when I advised her not to hang herself on him."
His gaze fell on the woman's peaceful sleeping face, and his eyes unconsciously warmed. Unlike his usual pretense, only when facing her did the emotions revealed in his eyes become so genuine.
"Ruoruo, I regret it." He leaned down and chuckled, "The regret I'm talking about isn't because I regret holding on to you too tightly back then, but because I should have given you a child sooner. It would have been a child with albinism. You would have loved him dearly, and he would have been the best bond connecting us. That way, you wouldn't have had to think about abandoning me."
The woman was still asleep, and apart from her steady breathing, she made no other sound to respond to him.
He remained silent for a long, long time, then suddenly sighed softly, "Ruoruo, I'm actually starting to envy him."
In this room, only silence answered him.
On the next exam day, Lu Qi, as always, waited outside the school gate like a good father. However, unexpectedly, he saw a familiar figure among the parents accompanying their children to the exam.
Lu Qi smiled slightly, "Xiao Yu, what a coincidence."
Xia Yu glanced coldly at Lu Qi, showing no desire to talk to him.
Xia Yu and Lu Qi stood together, the former with a serious expression and the latter with a gentle smile. These two mature men had different temperaments, but both had excellent physical appearances, which attracted a lot of attention.
Xia Yu overheard people whispering about their relationship. He disdainfully took a step away from Lu Qi. Seeing that Lu Qi was about to follow him, he coldly said, "Stop right there, Lu Qi. You still haven't given me an explanation for what happened to Lu Chang'an."
I heard that Lu Chang'an is still studying at Shengyi, and the tuition fees are so expensive, which are still paid by Lu Qi. Lu Qi said with emotion, "After all, we are father and son."
Even now that Lu Chang'an is alright, Xia Yu knows that things are definitely not that simple.
Lu Qi smiled and said, "Neither my son nor your daughter is in a hurry, so why are you?"
This statement has a sense of the emperor not being worried but the eunuch being anxious.
Just as Xia Yu was about to speak in an annoyed tone, his daughter finally came out when most of the examinees had dispersed. However, upon seeing the white-haired boy next to Xia Zhen, he subconsciously frowned.
Xia Zhen was also surprised, "Dad, what brings you here?"
"On the way."
Xia Zhen expressed her doubts.
Xia Yu looked at Lu Jin.
The thin boy in the wheelchair probably thought he was disliked. He lowered his eyes slightly, and his voice, though trying to remain calm, still betrayed his unease. "Uncle Xia."
Xia Yu belatedly realized that he might have looked at the child too sternly. Thinking of what the child had gone through, he couldn't bring himself to say it. He awkwardly gave a "hmm" and then asked in a forcedly polite manner, "How did the exam go?"
Lu Jin gently held his left hand with his right, his lips slightly pursed, "It's probably not very good."
Xia Zhen looked at Lu Jin with a peculiar gaze.
Of course, how could Lu Jin possibly have the opportunity to study properly in a family like that?
Xia Yu couldn't help but glance at Lu Jin's hand again. This white-haired boy was injured while saving his daughter, and the injury might have affected his exams.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu said something comforting, which was rare for him: "It's okay if you didn't do well on the exam. Don't think about it too much after the exam. By the way, Zhenzhen has an amusement park. Zhenzhen can take you there to relax and have some fun during the holidays."
Xia Zhen looked up, "Huh?"
"What do you mean, 'huh'?" Xia Yu said sternly without being angry. "He got injured saving you, so what's wrong with you taking him to an amusement park?"
Xia Zhen quickly realized, "Dad, you're right, I should repay your kindness!"
Lu Jin was probably not used to showing his emotions. He blinked and then quickly lowered his head, as if to let people see a glint of water in his eyes.
He said softly, "Thank you, Uncle Xia."
Look at this, it's just a trip to an amusement park, why is this little white-haired boy so moved?
It must be that the family he was with before never took him to an amusement park.
Xia Yu felt a rare surge of sympathy.
Lu Qi, standing next to him, raised his hand to cover his mouth, but couldn't hide the smile in his upturned eyes.
Xia Yu frowned as she looked at Lu Qi, her expression full of disdain.
As expected of Lu the Madman, the more miserable his son's life is, the happier he laughs.
Although Xia Yu also felt that children shouldn't be spoiled, especially daughters, as they are easily spoiled, he wouldn't allow his daughter to be bullied.
Even after becoming a father, Lu Qi is still so inhumane!
