Inside Beijing International Airport, people came and went, and the noise rose and fell. A tall figure slowly walked out from the crowd. His hair was cut neatly, and a pair of large sunglasses covered half of his face, but they could not hide his handsome face and unique temperament.
He wore a casual white sweatshirt paired with simple jeans, which perfectly accentuated his long, straight legs. He wore white sneakers, and his steps were light and powerful, each step like a musical note, playing a cheerful melody.
He pushed a luggage cart, walking at a leisurely pace, the wheels making a soft "gurgling" sound, as if telling of the weariness of his journey. However, when he stepped out of the airport terminal and felt the long-awaited warm sunshine on his body, a bright smile involuntarily appeared on his lips. This smile, like a flower blooming in spring, instantly dispelled all the gloom, drawing the attention of the young men and women around him.
As he walked, he looked around curiously. Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to a figure at the exit. A woman who looked to be in her thirties was standing there quietly, holding a large bouquet of vibrant flowers in her arms. A gentle smile graced her face, and her beautiful eyes sparkled with joy, like bright stars.
Seeing this, the boy's smile grew even brighter. He quickened his pace, pushing the luggage cart swiftly towards the woman. Soon, he reached her, and without hesitation, reached out and gently wrapped his arms around her slender waist. Then, he excitedly called out, "Mommy!" His voice was clear and resonant, filled with joy.
Looking at her eldest son, whom she hadn't seen in so long, Qian Duoduo was filled with excitement and joy. She carefully examined her son's face and said with heartache, "Why have you lost so much weight? Did you not take good care of yourself while you were abroad?" As she spoke, her eyes even became slightly moist.
Hearing his mother's concerned words, Lu Yuan quickly smiled and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry! I was actually fine before, it's just that I've been staying up late for several nights in a row so I can go back to China and see you sooner. But now that I'm back, with your delicious cooking, I'll definitely gain weight back quickly!" After saying that, he playfully winked at his mother.
Qian Duoduo said to him earnestly, "No matter what happens, you must remember that nothing is more important than your own health!" She finished speaking with a warm and kind smile, like the gentlest spring sunshine. Then she added, "Don't do anything foolish again. Mom doesn't want you to neglect yourself for anything else!"
Lu Yuan, standing to the side, didn't seem too concerned. In his view, as long as his precious son returned home safely, the numbers on the scale would eventually be picked up again. He simply didn't believe that his wife's superb, unparalleled culinary skills couldn't fatten their son into a chubby, healthy young man. However, he only dared to think these thoughts to himself. If Lu Yuan were to find out, who knew what she would say about him behind his back?
However, it must be admitted that my son's physique is truly impeccable! Look at those broad, strong shoulders and that slender yet powerful waist; his overall figure forms a perfect inverted triangle shape. Such perfect proportions—he's the kind of person who looks slim and tall when dressed, but reveals strong, muscular lines the moment he takes his clothes off! My wife is probably thinking: "Whose son is this outstanding and excellent?"
Lu Yuan's return was like a spring breeze blowing into the long-silent Lu family, bringing renewed vitality and a lively atmosphere to the entire clan. When the sisters, brothers, and cousins heard the news of Lu Yuan's return, they couldn't wait to gather together.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan, the children's faces immediately lit up with joyful smiles. Lu Yuan smiled and opened his suitcase, taking out one exquisite gift after another. These gifts were all specially brought back from England. He not only prepared unique gifts for his three younger brothers, but also remembered his two older cousins and several older cousins from his two uncles' families.
In an instant, the children surrounded Lu Yuan like stars around the moon, excitedly rushing into his room. Some sat, some stood, forming a circle, chatting animatedly about the little things in their lives over the past two years.
Lu Yuan vividly recounted his various novel experiences and interesting sights in a foreign land. The unheard-of local customs, unique architectural styles, and rich and colorful cultural activities captivated the older brothers and sisters present, filling them with longing and envy.
However, although the children were full of curiosity about the outside world, none of them had the opportunity to study and live abroad as exchange students like Lu Yuan. Therefore, being able to listen to Lu Lu Yuan's stories was already a rare enjoyment and satisfaction for them.
Qian Duoduo had the driver take several cars to the Lu family's old house. Lu Lang and his wife were sitting in wicker chairs in the courtyard, enjoying the warm afternoon sun. Although time had left its mark on them, both were still in relatively good health. However, with age, some symptoms of organ aging were inevitable, a natural physiological phenomenon that was indeed irreversible. Nevertheless, their bright eyes and kind smiles revealed that their inner world remained very rich.
What brings the two elderly people particular joy is that the fourth generation of the Lu family is thriving. Each child is intelligent, well-behaved, and sensible, excelling in both academics and character. Whenever they see these adorable grandchildren, Lu Lang and his wife are filled with joy and contentment.
Just then, Lu Lang spotted the spirited Lu Yuan and quickly went to greet him, giving him a tight hug. Then, he took Lu Yuan's wrist and asked with concern, "Child, how are you eating in England? Are you settling in comfortably?" A series of questions followed, revealing his deep affection for Lu Yuan.
Seeing Lu Lang's eagerness to ask questions, Grandma Lu, who was standing to the side, was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say. She glared at Lu Lang and said reproachfully, "Hmph! You old man, you've asked all the questions you care about all at once, what else can I ask?" After saying that, Grandma Lu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Those around them burst into laughter at the heartwarming and amusing scene. The entire Lu family mansion was instantly enveloped in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.
