Cheng Yiqian knew what kind of person she was. Sometimes she just spoke too quickly, but she was still a filial daughter.
"It's alright. You can't force matters of the heart. They'll understand."
When Lu Jinglan heard what he said, she thought it made some sense. "When we get back, I'll talk to my mom about it properly."
"Well, the mountain wind is strong at night. You're a young girl, and you're quite frail. You should go back early."
Now that they had a clear explanation, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheng Yiqian's vacation is almost over, and he has only spent these two days with his mother, so he needs to talk to her.
As for his marriage, he's a grown man, so it doesn't really matter to him; there's no need to rush it.
Cheng Yiqian took Lu Jinglan back. Madam Cheng and Madam Lu did not return, fearing that if the two children could not become husband and wife, they would not even be able to remain friends, which would make things awkward for both families.
Seeing them return chatting and laughing, Mo Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
Are you two alright?
Madam Lu couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She meant well and thought the two of them were a good match.
"Mom, I've already talked to Yiqian. We're just like siblings, there's no romantic relationship between us. You don't need to worry about us anymore."
"Yes, Mom, we're not children anymore. When it comes to relationships, let's just let things take their natural course."
Seeing that there was no hope, Song Qinfang had no choice but to give up; she couldn't force a marriage.
"Okay, Mom won't interfere in your affairs anymore. Alright, I'm going back to rest for a bit."
Madam Lu didn't say anything more. Her daughter was also quite well-off, but she felt it was a pity that such a good son-in-law was wasted.
The others went back one after another. At this time, everyone was in their rooms, except for Xu Rubao on the third floor.
Lu Jingheng was depressed all night as he watched everyone else return.
As for that idiot, he probably doesn't want to see him either.
She chats and laughs with other people, but with him, she treats him like he's invisible, completely ignoring him.
Lu Jingheng had already smoked three cigarettes, but in the end he felt he couldn't let her off so easily.
Did she think she could escape by moving to the third floor?
Lu Jingheng stubbed out his cigarette; the third floor was no match for him.
He went up to the third floor, walked to the next room, and simply climbed over the balcony.
He went out onto the balcony and found the room completely dark. Was she already asleep so early?
Lu Jingheng quietly pushed open the French window door and found the bed empty.
He frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss. That idiot was afraid of the dark, so why didn't she even turn on a small light when she slept at night?
It's so late, hasn't she come back yet?
Lu Jingheng walked to the door and turned on all the lights in the room. There was no one in the bathroom.
She hasn't come back yet. Where could she have run off to at this hour?
Lanlan and Cheng Meilin have already returned; she definitely isn't with them.
Did she and Cheng Yiqian sneak out together?
He thought about it for a moment and felt it was unlikely; she probably wouldn't have that kind of courage.
Lu Jingheng thought for a moment, then, disregarding his pride, dialed her number directly.
The phone is ringing, but no one is answering.
Lu Jingheng felt increasingly uneasy. She wasn't in her room and wasn't answering her phone. Could something have happened?
Lu Jingheng dialed her number again, praying that she would answer the phone soon.
However, no one answered the phone.
His brow furrowed, and he strode out of her room.
