Chapter 55 Chapter 55 Grow old together, love each other for a lifetime. ...
Ye Anyu stared at the paper in her hand thoughtfully. She thought for a while and added a sentence on it. After she finished writing, she looked at the time. It was only eight o'clock.
Lu Mingzhou shouldn't come back so early. She looked at the paper again, her eyes shining and the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised.
"jingle……"
A familiar doorbell rang, breaking Ye Anyu's thoughts. Lu Mingzhou came back so soon! Ye Anyu picked up the paper on the table, put it down again, and finally hid it under his drawing paper.
Ye Anyu couldn't contain his inner joy and ran to the door quickly. Sure enough, it was Lu Mingzhou who came back. Ye Anyu opened the door with a "click" and greeted him.
"Brother, you're back!" Ye Anyu still couldn't get used to calling him husband, so she simply changed back to brother.
Lu Mingzhou nodded and walked in against the chill of the north wind. He noticed Ye Anyu's joy and asked, "What makes you so happy?"
Lu Mingzhou actually noticed her joy.
Ye Anyu welcomed Lu Mingzhou over and asked without answering, "Brother, do you know what day it is today?"
Of course Lu Mingzhou knew about this, and he rushed back immediately because he thought about this. They both knew it very well, had already expressed their feelings to each other, and planned to have children, so they definitely could not divorce.
But somehow, Lu Mingzhou felt that Ye Anyu's smile today was a little strange. He didn't know what was strange, but it was just a little strange.
Ye Anyu smiled and pushed Lu Mingzhou onto the sofa. Lu Mingzhou pretended not to know and asked, "What day is today?"
As soon as he said that, Ye Anyu turned around and pulled out a piece of paper from the drawing paper behind him. The two looked at each other and Ye Anyu slowly said, "Brother, do you really not know, or are you lying to me?"
Lu Mingzhou's heart tightened. Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Could it be... He raised his eyelids and looked at Ye Anyu. Ye Anyu looked at him seriously. He said softly, "Anyu, we should be considered husband and wife now."
Ye Anyu touched the side of his face with his hand and asked, "What do you think, brother?"
Lu Mingzhou felt like he was dreaming recently. Only in dreams did he dare to hope to touch Ye Anyu, only in dreams did he dare to express his feelings, and only in dreams could he possess Ye Anyu.
Lu Mingzhou's eyes dimmed, he pursed his lips, and suddenly began to stutter: "I..."
I hope it's true.
He wanted to escape, but Ye Anyu still stared at him. Ye Anyu handed the paper in his hand to him and said, "Brother, when we got married three years ago, you drew up the marriage contract. Now that the three-year period is over, it's my turn to end it."
Lu Mingzhou felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His face turned pale and he had no strength left in his body. He opened his mouth but said nothing. Ye Anyu stuffed the paper into his hand.
He closed his eyes, paused, and opened them. He saw the words written in black and white: it was not a divorce agreement!
From today on, you and I will become a real husband and wife, grow old together and love each other for the rest of our lives.
Looking up, Ye Anyu still looked at him seriously. To be honest, Ye Anyu was very excited, nervous, and a little scared. When she wrote this contract, she thought Lu Mingzhou would sign it.
But when Lu Mingzhou sat in front of her, she suddenly felt a huge fear in her heart. She didn't realize that her expression was very serious, nor did she realize that her outstretched hand was shaking.
When Ye Anyu saw Lu Mingzhou pause, her heart stagnated and she felt a little regretful. She wondered if she had overestimated her position in Lu Mingzhou's heart, and whether the content on this paper was too abrupt.
Lu Mingzhou finally spoke: "Do you have a pen?"
"Ah?" Ye Anyu didn't react for a moment, "Pen, yes, yes, yes, of course!" Ye Anyu hurriedly took a pen from the table and handed it over. It was a pencil.
Ye Anyu held his forehead, took it back, frantically searched for it, and handed it over, but the pen was out of ink.
Ye Anyu was speechless and took it back again, but Lu Mingzhou stood up, walked straight to her, bent down, took a pen accurately, and signed, his movements smooth and flowing.
Ye Anyu felt relieved. She put her arm around Lu Mingzhou's shoulders, and they both stared at the paper together.
Suddenly, Ye Anyu cried out "Ah!" Lu Mingzhou looked over and asked, "Anyu, what's wrong?"
Ye Anyu said: "The contract is in two copies, one for you and one for me. Now there is only one copy." Then how should the two of them divide it?
Lu Mingzhou shook his head lovingly and said, "Then write another one."
Ye Anyu said sweetly, "Okay!" Then she took out a piece of white paper, handed it to Lu Mingzhou, and said, "Brother, can you write this one?"
Lu Mingzhou said gently: "Okay."
Looking at Lu Mingzhou copying, Ye Anyu felt so at ease for the first time. After he finished writing, Ye Anyu signed her name. She gave the copy she wrote to Lu Mingzhou, and Lu Mingzhou put the copy in his pocket.
Ye Anyu smiled and put it away. When she raised her eyes, she met Lu Mingzhou's gentle gaze. She said, "Brother, since you have already signed the contract, you can't regret it in the future."
Lu Mingzhou held her in his arms, hugged her tightly, and said, "Don't worry, I won't regret it." The breath of Lu Mingzhou's words sprayed behind Ye Anyu's ears.
That night, the two of them lay in the same bed and did nothing but hug each other. Ye Anyu lay in Lu Mingzhou's arms. For the first time, she truly felt the love that Lu Mingzhou had once suppressed, and for the first time, she was full of expectations for love.
Lu Mingzhou hugged his beloved girl, her unique sweet fragrance lingering around his nose, and for the first time he felt at peace.
Over the years, he has made himself hard, invulnerable, and gradually stronger. He does not deserve family affection and love at all.
He said harsh words, but he continued to endure and restrain the desires in his heart.
He tried to restrain himself, but all of this came to nothing when he met Ye Anyu.
In the car that day, Ye Anyu didn't pay attention to the call from Lu Junyi. Later, when he accidentally heard another call from Lu Mingzhou, Ye Anyu felt something was wrong.
Having lived under the same roof with Lu Mingzhou for so long, Ye Anyu knew that he was indifferent, focused, hardworking and determined. Lu Mingzhou was an illegitimate child. Ye Anyu heard someone talk about it privately when she first entered the Ye family. At that time, Ye Anyu did not think it was a big deal. After all, her situation was similar.
Later on, it seemed as if the rumors that he was an illegitimate child were confirmed. Li Huijun was very cold to her, and Lu Junyi didn't care about him either.
Ye Anyu actually wanted to know about Lu Mingzhou's biological mother. No one in her family had ever mentioned it, and she had never heard Lu Mingzhou mention it, but Ye Anyu's sixth sense told her that Lu Mingzhou must be very clear about his own life experience.
Ye Anyu and Lu Mingzhou intertwined their fingers, lingering together, and slowly asked, "Brother, I haven't heard you talk about your biological mother yet."
Lu Mingzhou's body stiffened. Ye Anyu thought he didn't want to talk about it, so he said, "I'm just a little curious. It doesn't matter if you don't want to talk about it."
Lu Mingzhou rubbed his index finger on the back of Ye Anyu's hand for a long time, then said, "My biological mother is not Li Huijun. You should know this."
Ye Anyu nodded and said, "I know."
Lu Mingzhou continued, "When I was little, I always thought I was an illegitimate child."
I always thought that meant Lu Mingzhou wasn't a illegitimate child? Ye Anyu was shocked, but when she thought about it carefully, wasn't she also called a illegitimate daughter by the outside world? But in fact, she was not. She was Ye Heshuo's eldest daughter in name only.
Her half-brother was born out of wedlock to Ye Heshuo. Logically, he was the real illegitimate child, but now they were confusing right and wrong and accusing her of being an illegitimate daughter. Thinking that Lu Mingzhou might be similar to herself, she believed that only the living had the right to speak.
Lu Mingzhou gave her the answer: "When I grew up, I realized that I was not."
No! But Lu Junyi said that he was an illegitimate child. Something shameful must have happened to him, which was a lie.
"My mother was Lu Junyi's first wife. He married Li Huijun after my mother passed away."
Ye Anyu asked doubtfully, "But Brother Xingzhi is obviously older than you." After asking this question, Ye Anyu suddenly realized a problem. Doesn't she also have a brother?
"My mother is the daughter of a wealthy family and the only daughter of the Shen Group."
Ye Anyu had never heard anyone mention Shen Group.
Lu Mingzhou saw Ye Anyu's confusion and continued to explain.
It turns out that Lu Mingzhou's biological mother, Shen Wan, is the only heir to the Shen Group. Shen Wan's grandfather made his fortune by doing business during the reform and opening up period and founded the Shen Group. He has only one son, Shen Wan's father. When Shen Wan's father grew up, he married and took over the Shen Group and gave birth to Shen Wan. Shen Wan's parents both died in a plane crash. At that time, Shen Wan was only an adult. Shen Wan's grandfather, Shen Mingzhi, was very sad to see his son die young.
After this incident, Shen Group only had Shen Wan as the heir. Shen Wan had a good business sense. In the years when she took over, Shen Group became bigger and stronger.
Unfortunately, Shen Wan had poor judgment in men, and she fell in love with Lu Junyi. Lu Junyi was a good-looking man, and he was very good at pleasing girls. Soon after, Shen Wan and Lu Junyi got together.
However, Shen Mingzhi had sharp eyes and could see at a glance that Lu Junyi was a man of evil intentions and ambitions. He absolutely disagreed with the two of them being together.
But in the end, she could not stand Shen Wan's persistence and Lu Junyi's flexibility, because Lu Junyi agreed to marry into the Shen family. At that time, it was extremely shameful for a man to marry into a woman's family, and it was a disgrace to the family.
The two got married. After marriage, Lu Junyi was still obedient to Shen Wan and always did what he said. Shen Mingzhi gradually let down his guard and let him get involved in the company's affairs.
Shen Wan was actually quite prepared. She didn't have children in the first two years after her marriage. It wasn't until she had investigated Lu Junyi and the time was right that she became pregnant. During her pregnancy, she was unwell, so many things in the company were handed over to Lu Junyi. During this period, Shen Mingzhi died of a sudden illness.
Shen Wan gave birth to her first son, Lu Mingzhou, in great grief. Due to excessive grief and exhaustion after giving birth, Shen Wan was involved in a car accident during a business trip and died on the spot.
Later, the Shen Group became the Lu Group. Lu Junyi married Li Huijun and brought Lu Xingzhi with him. It was obvious to everyone that Lu Xingzhi was the illegitimate child, but many things can only be decided by the living.
For example, Lu Mingzhou became an illegitimate child, and the Shen Group became the Lu Group.
Not many people knew about this matter back then, and those who knew the inside story were basically bribed by Lu Junyi, so what the world knows now is that Li Huijun is the legal wife, Lu Xingzhi is the legal son, and Lu Mingzhou becomes the illegitimate child.
Lu Mingzhou didn't learn the truth until he was sixteen years old.
