Chapter 329 Leaving Together
Lu Yuwu went directly to the college office and found the teacher in charge of study abroad applications.
She took a deep breath and used all her strength to say her decision.
"Teacher, I have decided to accept the offer. Could you please help me with the remaining procedures?"
"That's right! If I were you, I wouldn't hesitate for a second! Nothing is more important than my future!"
The teacher was happy for her and congratulated her repeatedly, then took out the relevant forms for her to fill out.
Lu Yuwu picked up the pen, her fingertips trembling slightly, and wrote her name on the form stroke by stroke.
Each word is like a faint mark etched on my heart.
After she filled out the form and handed it to the teacher, the early summer sun was a bit dazzling as she walked out of the office building.
Lu Yuwu stood on the steps, her eyes slightly narrowed.
She felt empty inside, as if she had accomplished something great, but had also lost something important.
Just then, a familiar figure came into her view.
"Little Fog".
Lu Yuwu was taken aback and looked up.
Fu Yan stood not far away and walked towards her, looking somewhat anxious.
Lu Yuwu's heart skipped a beat, and she instantly lost her composure.
She never expected to run into Fu Yan here, let alone that he would come looking for her.
She thought that Fu Yan stormed out last night because he had tacitly agreed to break up and was unwilling to wait for her for three years.
Lu Yuwu took a deep breath.
She didn't want to passively wait for his verdict any longer, so she took a deep breath and walked quickly to Fu Yan.
Before he could speak, Lu Yuwu spoke quickly, saying, "Fu Yan, it's good to have met you. I've thought it through. I've submitted my application to study in Paris. It's my dream, and I have to go."
“Three years is a long time, I know. If you feel you can’t accept it or don’t want to wait, I respect and understand any decision you make.”
Lu Yuwu finished speaking in one breath, not daring to look into Fu Yan's eyes, for fear of seeing even the slightest bit of indifference in them.
She was prepared to hear Fu Yan propose breaking up; she lowered her head, even breathing became difficult.
However, Lu Yuwu suddenly heard a soft laugh.
Fu Yan looked at her trembling slightly, but instead of being angry, a faint smile flashed in his eyes.
He stepped forward, closing the distance between them, and stared intently at Lu Yuwu.
Lu Yuwu blinked, puzzled.
Fu Yan's voice was deep: "I know you're definitely going to choose to study abroad."
Lu Yuwu stared at him in astonishment.
Fu Yan continued, "I went back yesterday and told my parents that I had applied to Sciences Po for a master's program, and they have already given me an offer. The paperwork is being processed, so there shouldn't be any problems."
Lu Yuwu's eyes widened instantly, staring at him in disbelief: "You, you went to take care of this yesterday?"
Fu Yan couldn't help but smile slightly: "Otherwise what? Wherever you go, I'll go. I won't separate from you, and I certainly won't be in a long-distance relationship with you."
"..." Lu Yuwu was completely stunned, her mind went blank.
He wasn't angry, nor was he trying to break up; rather, he had applied to a school in Paris so he could go with her.
Lu Yuwu's eyes reddened, and she buried herself in Fu Yan's arms, tightly hugging his waist with both hands, and cried with her face buried in his chest.
"You scared me to death! I thought you didn't want me anymore, I thought you were angry..."
Why didn't you reply to my messages? Why didn't you tell me sooner?
She cried and made incoherent accusations.
Fu Yan's heart softened at her crying, and he quickly tightened his arms, holding her tightly in his embrace.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. My phone died last night, and I only saw your message when I got home. I thought it would be better to explain things to you in person today since there's a result now."
"I'm sorry I startled you. I'll communicate with you more promptly next time."
Fu Yan gently patted Lu Yuwu's back, letting her vent her emotions in his arms.
How could he bear to leave her? His plans and future were already filled with Lu Yuwu's name.
And just then, not far away...
Shang Wu and Lu Rang happened to witness this scene.
They were worried about Lu Yuwu's mental state and thought they would come over to check on her, but they didn't expect to see the two of them already talking.
Lu Yuwu cried like a child in Fu Yan's arms, and Fu Yan patiently and gently comforted her.
The scene was so beautiful that one didn't want to disturb it.
Shang Wu and Lu Rang stopped, exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with relief, and did not go forward to disturb them.
She couldn't help but sigh, "Actually, I never thought they could be together. They are well-matched in terms of social status and childhood sweethearts, but growing up together must have lost its novelty. I never expected that they would actually end up together."
Lu Rang found it somewhat amusing and reached out to rub Shang Wu's head.
"We've been married for so many years, and we're still not tired of each other, are we?"
Shang Wu deliberately raised an eyebrow: "Aren't you tired of it? Actually, I am already tired of it."
Lu Rang paused, then frowned at her: "Are you tired of me?"
Before Shang Wu could speak, he grabbed her waist, his teeth clenched.
"Then tell me, how did you get tired of it?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong, I wasn't tired of you." Shang Wu hugged his neck, smiling and begging for forgiveness.
Lu Rang didn't give up, his expression becoming cautious: "Honestly, over the years, have I done anything wrong that you're not satisfied with?"
Shang Wu felt a warmth in her heart and deliberately teased him, "You really want to know?"
Lu Rang nodded without hesitation: "Yes."
"There is one thing I feel you haven't done well enough."
Lu Rang raised an eyebrow: "What is it? You've been holding back for so long to tell me. Just say it."
Shang Wu pursed her lips, her eyes flickering.
"Then you can't get angry when I tell you."
Lu Rang nodded: "I promise I won't get angry."
Shang Wu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately put on a complaining expression: "Sometimes you watch me too closely. I went out to a dinner party and only had a couple of drinks, and you insisted on taking me home. That's such a downer."
Lu Rang sighed helplessly, "Those are all men. Just drink with them in moderation. Dinner parties are for business, not for drinking..."
"Stop, stop, stop."
Shang Wu was exasperated; he dreaded listening to his long-winded explanations of these things.
She smiled and said, "Honey, I was just saying that casually. You're welcome to pick me up again next time."
Lu Rang smiled and said, "Next time I can come ten minutes later, and... I'll be a little more polite to them."
As the two were talking, Lu Yuwu gradually stopped crying under Fu Yan's soft comforting words, leaving only soft sobs.
Finally, she seemed to hear something from Fu Yan, and she looked up. Although her eyes were still red like a little rabbit's, a bright smile with tears in her eyes appeared on her face.
Upon seeing this scene, Shang Wu's eyes also welled up with tears.
She gently took Lu Rang's arm and rested her head on his shoulder.
"It seems we worried for nothing."
Lu Rang raised his hand and covered the back of her hand. "Fu Yan is sensible and decisive in her actions."
He paused, then added, "That's good."
It's really good.
He did not hinder Lu Yuwu's dream, but chose the most responsible way to follow her.
This sense of responsibility and determination put their minds at ease.
Lu Rang suddenly had an idea.
"Awu, let's go back and take care of something."
Shang Wu looked up: "Okay."
She didn't know what Lu Rang was planning, but she was sure it was for the child's good.
The two left quietly, leaving the two children still cuddling together.
...
A few days later.
During a family dinner, Lu Rang and Shang Wu announced a decision.
"Little Fog, Disgusting."
Shang Wu looked tenderly at the two children sitting opposite her, "Your decision to go to Paris together is supported by your parents, Uncle Fu, and Aunt Fu."
"Aunt Fu said that they will prepare the wedding room in China, and they are already looking at villas."
Madam Fu smiled and nodded, adding, "Yes, you young people can choose whatever style you like when the time comes."
Lu Rang continued Shang Wu's words calmly, "Since the Fu family in China has made preparations, we will arrange your accommodations abroad for the next few years. We have found an apartment in the Left Bank District."
The Fu family and Lu Yuwu were both surprised.
Lu Yuwu couldn't help but laugh: "Mom and Dad, when did you make this decision without telling us?"
"We're not hiding this from you. We just planned it out. It's not far from your and Yan Yan's schools, and the environment is quiet and safe. The formalities are already being processed, and you can move in directly once you arrive."
Chairman Fu and his wife were somewhat surprised by Lu Rang's words.
The apartments on the Left Bank are quite valuable, which is clearly not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but rather something that was planned in advance.
After learning of the children's decision, Lu Rang and Shang Wu quickly paved the way for them.
"Mom and Dad, this is too expensive..." Lu Yuwu quickly declined.
"Uncle and Aunt, we can just rent a place to live." Fu Yan was also flattered.
"Please accept this." Shang Wu smiled. "This is not a gift, but a home. I hope you can have a place that is completely yours in a foreign country, where you don't have to worry about renting a place and can focus more on your studies."
Lu Rang nodded, his tone leaving no room for refusal: "Consider it a gift from your parents to you as you embark on a new journey, and also an early wedding gift for you."
Now that things have come to this, it would be too formal to refuse any further.
Lu Yuwu and Fu Yan exchanged a glance, both seeing in each other the happiness of being fully supported by their family.
They stood up and bowed solemnly to the four elders.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad. Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."
Seeing how sensible the children were, the group members all smiled with satisfaction.
Lu Yuwu took a deep breath, seemingly gathering her courage, and exchanged a glance with Fu Yan.
After receiving his encouraging nod, her cheeks flushed slightly, but her tone was firm: "Dad, Mom, Uncle and Aunt, we have another idea."
Everyone looked at her with smiles, waiting for her to continue.
"We want to wait until we finish our studies in three years and come back from Paris, and then...we'll get married!"
After Lu Yuwu finished speaking, she lowered her head shyly, her fingers nervously twisting together.
Fu Yan immediately grasped her hand and intertwined their fingers: "Yes, please agree. We will use these three years to better enrich ourselves and lay a solid foundation for our future careers."
When we return after completing our studies, we will be able to start a family.
This suggestion, though somewhat sudden, is also quite reasonable.
Having gone through so much, the two children's hearts are now unbreakable, and their plans for the future are clear and mature.
They're engaged, so their return is only a matter of time.
Shang Wu and Lu Rang exchanged a smile, their eyes full of blessings.
“Okay,” Lu Rang said first.
“We have no objection.” Shang Wu smiled gently. “As long as you two are doing well, we will support you whenever you get married.”
Chairman Fu and his wife were overjoyed and readily agreed.
"We can't wait for Fu Yan to marry Xiao Wu as soon as possible."
Lu Yuwu breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged a glance with Fu Yan, and secretly took his hand under the table.
