Su Yourong said she was there to uphold justice. She said she would withdraw as long as Lu Feng could control himself. After all, the shares she held in United Securities would be given to her son in the future, so even if they were poor, they wouldn't be that poor.
Some problems can be easily brushed aside with a few words when they are not problems, but when a problem becomes a real problem, it takes a lot of effort to resolve it.
Lu Feng knew that even if Su Yourong didn't want anything at this moment, it wouldn't work. Just because everyone said it was okay didn't mean it was really okay.
If we want to eliminate any lingering resentment in our hearts in the future, this matter must be resolved completely.
The car was relatively quiet, but outside, several parents sat on the curb chatting about their children, their voices chattering and somewhat annoying.
This silence lasted all morning; no one seemed to have anything to say, or perhaps they were all waiting for an answer.
Unwilling to leave, yet unwilling to accept the status quo, they remain silent.
With less than ten minutes left before the morning exam, Lu Feng rolled down the car window, lit a cigarette, and said, "I want a home, but I also need security. I can promise not to mess around in the future, but I can't guarantee what you'll do years from now. We lack trust, which is the foundation of a family, and now that foundation is crumbling."
"Just say what you think. Let's get this over with today. You're quite busy, so I won't waste your time." Zhang Fengxia was a little downcast. She was prepared, but there was still a sliver of hope in her heart.
“How can it be a waste of time? We met, and even if we part ways, we might still be the most important people in our lives.” Lu Feng saw that some children were already coming out of the teaching building and said, “Duo Duo is coming out.”
After saying that, Lu Feng pushed open the car door and got out. Jiang Xiaoyan and the other two also got out of the car. After the exam, a large group of children rushed out. The first thing the parents asked their children when they saw them was how the exam went and whether the questions were difficult.
The vast majority of children had smiles on their faces. Regardless of how difficult the exam was, it was a relief for them. Once the afternoon session was over, everything would be over.
Despite the blazing sun, Lu Feng felt no heat at all. His eyes searched through the crowd, but he couldn't find Duo Duo for a moment. Suddenly, Jiang Xiaoyan next to him called out, "Duo Duo, she's here!"
Lu Feng turned around and saw that Duo Duo had already walked to the side of the road. Hearing Jiang Xiaoyan's voice, she walked over here, and he couldn't help but smile.
"How did it go?" Lu Feng asked first. "Were the questions difficult?"
"Fortunately, several questions were the same ones I'd asked before; my tutors had taught me those and even highlighted the key points," Duoduo said confidently. "I think I definitely did better this time than usual!"
Lu Feng smiled upon hearing this, reached out and patted her head, thinking to himself, "No money is wasted."
"Let's go, have a good meal. Tell us what you want to eat, and then we'll study hard for the exam this afternoon." Lu Feng said with a smile, "Then we'll go straight to Shenzhen Middle School. Who wants to go to a private school? If anyone's going to go, it'll be a public one!"
"I don't really want to eat anything, anything is fine with me!"
"Then let's have some Western food, just a bite!" Lu Feng said, waving his hand.
At a high-end Western restaurant half an hour away from the exam venue, Lu Feng ordered all of Duo Duo's favorite dishes. As everyone listened to Duo Duo talk about what happened in the exam room, some couldn't write anything, some were nervous, and some secretly peeked at other people's papers.
After having lunch and resting briefly, we drove back to the examination venue. The exam started at 2:30 p.m., and a crowd of parents gathered at the school gate once again.
Lu Feng stared at the school. He had never been so nervous in his two lifetimes. These things had nothing to do with money. He just hoped that his child would be better than him. As long as she could go further step by step, he would feel an indescribable joy. It was as if he had a sense of mission, an inexplicable sense of mission and responsibility.
The weather was sweltering. Lu Feng wiped his sweat with a tissue, let out a long sigh, and joked, "This is even more nerve-wracking than taking the exam myself!"
"You talk as if you've ever taken the exam," Jiang Xiaoyan teased. "I heard from your mother that when you were a kid, you would tear up the exam paper and come home saying you hadn't taken the exam."
Lu Feng smiled and said, "I don't care anymore. I don't care about making that much money. If you want to come into this family, then come in. As for what else you want to do, just say it. To be honest, I'm really a bit tired. I've never been one to trust people. Over the years, I've been on guard at every turn, but letting go of that wariness feels really good."
Lu Feng looked at the school, lit a cigarette and smoked silently, and continued, "I need a home, a home that gives me peace of mind. As for whether it's right or wrong, I don't want to think about it anymore. I don't want to be mentally exhausted outside and mentally exhausted when I come home."
Zhang Fengxia reached out from the back row and tightly grasped Lu Feng's hand. For her, this moment was already perfect. Even if Lu Feng was penniless and had to beg on the streets tomorrow, she would be willing to follow him.
Jiang Xiaoyan looked at Lu Feng and said, "As long as the child is well, everything is fine. I'm already exhausted."
“I know you’re afraid I’ll drain the family’s money or have some bad intentions. You can see from my behavior. I’ve been alone all these years, and I also want a place where I can let my guard down. I will contribute to this family,” Su Yourong assured her.
The weather is hot and dry. This inner turmoil has finally come to an end. All we need is to let go. But in this life, out of millions of people, how many can truly let go?
Su Yourong revealed her thoughts: they could not get a marriage certificate, so they would set up a holding company, put all the shares and assets under everyone's name into it, distribute them according to the company's shareholding, and then sign a concerted action agreement.
