"Duoduo, I apologize to you. I'm sorry."
Mi Duoduo was confused. She suspected that she was dreaming, otherwise how could Lu Xiangbei apologize to her.
I still remember the last time they talked, it was so earth-shattering.
Since then, she and Lu Xiangbei disliked each other. The greatest respect Mi Duoduo showed to Lu Xiangbei was to call him "Mr. Lu".
As for the way Lu Xiangbei addressed Mi Duoduo, uh... Mi Duoduo thought about it carefully, and it seemed that except when he was angry, he would call her by her full name, but the rest of the time, he would either call her "hey" or "her", or simply call her without a subject.
so……
What's wrong with him? He actually called me Duoduo! What's wrong with him? Did I hear correctly? And he's apologizing to me! What's he apologizing for? Could it be that he's had a change of heart and realized that he treated me badly all these years? That's impossible, right?
Lu Xiangbei looked at Mi Duoduo's increasingly surprised expression and didn't know what to say for a moment.
The two of them sat there awkwardly for ten minutes without saying anything.
Finally, Lu Xiangbei couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to speak, "Well, Duoduo, these days, I have been thinking a lot, and your sister... Xinyao, she also told me a lot."
[Thinking a lot? What are you thinking about? What did Lu Xinyao say? She's suddenly so gentle to me, is she lying? Lu Xinyao's words might be for my brother, so what's his motivation?]
Lu Xiangbei: ...
"I know that what I did before was a bit excessive. I couldn't make my parents stop doing those excessive things, but I blamed my own inability on your mother. It was my fault.
As for you, I really blamed your mother because I knew she liked my brother Lu Xiangnan. So when she found out about your pregnancy, your mother actually had selfish motives and wanted you to be more like Xiangnan.
Mi Duoduo was about to refute, but was stopped by Lu Xiangbei, "Don't disbelieve me, I have evidence.
I was just guessing at first, but then I actually saw it.”
Lu Xiangbei took out an old notebook and handed it to Mi Duoduo.
"This is your mother's diary."
"How did it get into your hands? I sorted out my mother's things and put them at my place."
"Yes, it was originally at your place. Actually, I'm not exactly sure where it was, but when you were little, Hongyu and Xinyao went to play at the Huo family's house. When they came back, they were holding a pair of comic books, and this was tucked between them."
After hearing this, Midoduo had some impression.
At that time, she was looking for something, so she took out the box and looked inside. But before she could put it away, Huo Yan came up and took a few comic books from Mi Duoduo, saying that he wanted to lend them to the Lu siblings.
The comic book originally belonged to Huo Yan and Huo Qi, and Mi Duoduo didn't say that it was forbidden to lend it to them, so she let Huo Yan take it himself. Maybe it got mixed in with them at that time and was taken back to the Lu family by the Lu siblings.
"Then don't you know how to return it to the owner?"
"I was going to return it, but I accidentally opened it and looked at it."
"so what?"
"Of course it was the day I saw your mother. I knew my previous guess was not false."
"So you're even angrier?"
"Shouldn't I be angry?"
"That's very kind of you."
"Why should I be embarrassed? I was treated as a substitute by a stranger. How can I not be angry?"
"My mother was taken advantage of by a strange man like you? Why didn't you say anything?"
"Then I've lost my innocence and I've let my wife down."
"That's your parents' problem. Who can you blame? My mom? Me?"
"sorry."
Mi Duoduo thought Lu Xiangbei would continue to quarrel with her, but who knew he would suddenly say sorry again.
“No, you…you…”
"Duoduo, the main reason I asked you out today is to apologize to you for my irrationality over the years.
Actually, you are right. I am not a good husband, nor a good father, and I am even less a good person to your mother."
[Did I say that? Oops, I've been complaining about Lu Xiangbei so much that I forgot.]
“…”
"After this incident, I've figured it out. I know that even if I apologize to you now, and tell you that I will treat you well and take on the responsibilities of a father, you won't believe me, and you might even think it's too late. But I will still do my best to make it up to you.
Duoduo, please give me a chance."
[Oh, what should I say? You turned back when you hit the wall, your milk came when your child died, and you shook off the snot when it flowed into your mouth. You tried it and thought it was yogurt!
Let me give you a chance? If you really want to make it up to me, why do you need me to give you a chance? Just take action. Although I will definitely refuse.
Who was so hurtful before? Besides, my last name is Mi, and I am the daughter of my mother Mi Jia. I have nothing to do with you, who has the last name Lu.
Lu Xiangbei: ...
"Duoduo, this is the card you returned to me. I'm returning it to its original owner. After all, it's a token of my appreciation. Also, I've agreed with your Aunt Lin Xiang, Xinyao, and Hongyu. We'll each contribute a little of our respective group shares and give you 2%. No matter what you want to do in the future, even if you don't work, you won't have to worry about money."
[Is this considered a bribe? Oh my god, the Lu family wouldn't offer anything unless they were willing to pay, but when they did, it was truly amazing. They actually gave me shares. Could they be holding something big in mind?]
"We just want to make it up to you."
[Oh my god, how come he seems to know what I'm thinking? Can he read my mind?]
Lu Xiangbei: (?д?)
In order to prevent Mi Duoduo from getting suspicious, Lu Xiangbei suppressed his temper and drank several cups of tea to calm himself down, and only then did he manage to endure Mi Duoduo's complaints in his heart.
[Looks like he can't hear anything. I was so scared! I thought I wasn't the only one who got the cheat code.]
"Well, there's no need for compensation or anything like that. I think it's better for us to just stay the same as before and not bother each other. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
[Hurry up and leave! If you don't leave now, I'm afraid I'll be bought out by those shares.]
Looking at Mi Duoduo's running back, Lu Xiangbei smiled from the bottom of his heart. This was the first time he thought Mi Duoduo was cute.
Lu Xiangbei finally understood why the Huo family, Lin Xiang, and Lu Xiangnan liked Mi Duoduo so much. Mi Duoduo must have been a thousand times cuter when she was a child.
On the other side, Mi Duoduo, who was scared away by Lu Xiangbei's series of monetary compensation bombardments, felt a little regretful sitting in the car. He just lost face.
"Why was I scared away by Lu Xiangbei? But he really apologized and even offered me shares. Oh, I should have rejected him more harshly just now. I didn't perform well this time. Next time, I will definitely do it next time."
