A person stands on the beach, their thin, frail back gazing up at the starry sky with a forlorn expression.
She understood that her mother must have been reminiscing about her past with her father.
"Your parents have a really good relationship."
I don't know when Lu Gui came over, and I don't know how much he heard.
“They do have a good relationship.” Merita didn’t notice the mockery in Lu Gui’s eyes when he heard this.
"So, if one person dies, the other person is no different from a walking corpse, and it's unclear why they should continue living..."
"Lugui!"
Wang Wenfei frowned. She didn't know anything about Merita's family, but judging from her words just now, Merita's father might have passed away.
Lu Gui's words were really a bit too much.
Before she could say anything more, Lu Gui chuckled and said, "So, in the end, it's the children who suffer. The parents are so caught up in their love that they can't escape the pain of separation and death. The children are irrelevant to them, aren't they?"
"Isn't that a rather biased statement?"
Wang Wenfei's brows furrowed even more, she hadn't expected Lu Gui to be so extreme.
“My mother loved my father very much, and she did change a lot after he left, but that didn’t stop her from continuing to love me.”
On the contrary, I felt somewhat guilty. The care and affection she gave me, I didn't reciprocate in the same way she did for me. I even once hoped my mother would remarry and find someone to spend her life with.
Merita also disagreed with Lu Gui's words; the resentment in his words was far too obvious.
She looked up, about to change the subject, when she saw Lu Xiaoyao walk up to Lu Gui. Her usual smile was gone; she coldly reached out and grabbed Lu Gui's tightly clenched fist.
"elder brother."
With just a soft call, Lu Gui seemed to lose all his strength, turned his head to meet her concerned gaze, and smiled.
"I am here."
"That's good... Brother, don't get angry over people who are not involved."
As she spoke, Lu Xiaoyao nodded slightly to the two people standing there and took Lu Gui away. Merita opened her mouth, wondering what Lu Xiaoyao meant by that sentence.
"It wasn't us who angered Lu Gui!"
Merita complained to Wang Wenfei in a low voice, and Wang Wenfei echoed her complaint, shaking her head slightly and saying only, "She might not be talking about us..."
Who is that?
Who... knows?
A complex look flashed in Wang Wenfei's eyes as she said this. Outsiders like them didn't know much about the Lu family's affairs, but after playing with Lu Xiaoyao for so long, Wang Wenfei was certain of one thing—Lu Xiaoyao and her mother didn't have a good relationship.
She never imagined it would turn out this badly.
