I searched everywhere and finally saw Lu Zhiyuan standing by the river.
I don't know what he was thinking. He stared at the river in a daze and didn't even notice me approaching.
Lu Zhiyuan didn't notice me until I stood beside him.
"Why did you come out too?"
I casually sat down on the ground: "It's too noisy in there, I want to get out and hide away."
My relaxation also inspired Lu Zhiyuan. He sat down beside me, looked at the river, and murmured, "I know you are worried about me. I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of my dad."
I asked cautiously, "Did the burial go smoothly?"
"Yeah." Lu Zhiyuan responded, "The weather is nice today. He likes flowers and plants, and the cemetery is also a place with many flowers and plants."
I was just wondering how to comfort him when I heard him mutter to himself, "Today, as my dad was being buried, my childhood memories of him suddenly came back to me. He always seemed so weak and always listened to my mom."
Listening to Lu Zhiyuan's impression of Lu Jing, I knew that this was his way of venting his emotions. I didn't interrupt him and listened to him quietly.
"In other families, the father is the dominant one, but in our family, it's my mother who is the dominant one. My father seems to have always had a good temper and a gentle personality. He always listens to my mother and never resists her, even when she does something wrong."
What Lu Zhiyuan described is also my impression of Lu Jing. It is Lu Jing's cowardice that makes Zhao Xian more arrogant at home.
Lu Zhiyuan laughed at himself, "You know what? There was a time when I even looked down on him. I felt he wasn't manly at all, and I was even embarrassed to mention my dad to others."
"Later, I learned that I had applied to a university abroad, but my mother disagreed with me going abroad and wanted to keep me by her side. That was the first time I saw my father break his usual routine and had a huge fight with my mother over me."
Lu Zhiyuan lowered his head, a faint smile forming on his lips. "He lost his temper that day, and even scared my mom. He said he didn't want me to be confined by my family, and that he wanted me to live my life as I wished. At that moment, I knew my dad wasn't weak. His courage came from me, and he wanted to fight for the life I wanted for me."
Lu Zhiyuan's voice was choked with sobs, and he kept his eyes down, as if afraid that I would see the tears welling up in his eyes.
"As a son, I'm really an unfilial son. I even felt ashamed of his weakness. But in fact, his weakness was just because he didn't want me to grow up in an environment where my parents quarreled. His weakness was actually a form of protection for me."
Listening to Lu Zhiyuan's story, my eyes became slightly sore.
Lu Jing himself was imprisoned by Zhao Xian, but he had no complaints.
But he didn't want Lu Zhiyuan's life to be controlled by Zhao Xian, so he was willing to lose his temper to fight for his freedom.
People often say that women are weak by nature, but become strong when they become mothers.
But few people mention their father.
In fact, regardless of gender, everyone has a weak side.
But no matter how weak a person is, he or she will have the courage to risk everything for someone.
I put my hand on Lu Zhiyuan's shoulder and comforted him softly, "You are the reason your father bravely resisted. He wanted to live his own life, and you didn't let him down. You are now the boss of Xiguang Technology, supporting so many employees, and the company is also getting better and better. This is what your father wanted to see."
