Chapter 68 You'll be spending the night at the old house tonight, understand?
Shi Nian suppressed the sadness in her heart.
Many things have happened in the past seven years.
She can take things on and let them go.
They once truly loved each other, and she doesn't regret what she did in the past. However, now that she no longer loves him, she will no longer make any effort for him.
Whether it's about things, the body, or the mind.
Not wanting to say more, Shi Nian lifted her foot and started to walk into the villa.
But Lu Yanzhi took her hand.
"Shi Nian." He called her name again.
“I’ve said it before, no one can replace you in your position,” Lu Yanzhi said. “Han Wei only has six months left. After six months, we can still be together.”
"You don't need to make a fuss. In six months, everything will go back to normal."
His voice came from behind him.
I smiled as I listened.
Her attitude was already so clear, yet he still thought she was being unreasonable?
Why is she acting so recklessly?
For him as a person, or for the position of Mrs. Lu?
She was never Mrs. Lu; she was Miss Shi, Shi Nian.
She stayed by his side only because of love.
And now, she is returning to Shi Nian, also because of love.
She used to love Lu Yanzhi, but now she loves herself.
She had already given him a chance.
She asked him again and again, but he only gave her one hurtful answer after another.
She has suffered too much heartbreak in her life and doesn't want to suffer anymore.
The boy who once held a piece of wood to protect her might have already died on that rainy night.
Now, all that remains before her is Lu Yanzhi, whose heart belongs only to Han Wei.
She didn't want Lu Yanzhi to be so unrecognizable.
"Let go!" she said.
But his large hand holding her wrist wouldn't let go at all.
"Shi Nian," Lu Yanzhi's voice came from behind, "what exactly do you want?"
She wants to recruit her father's former subordinates, uncover the truth behind his death, advance her career, ensure the well-being of the person she truly loves, and break free from him to live a good life!
These words almost slipped out.
But in the end, she held back.
They are still in the cooling-off period. She wants to get a smooth divorce, but she can't say anything else for now.
So, after saying so much, he finally said only one sentence: "Lu Yanzhi, my affairs are none of your business."
Her words completely enraged him.
The night breeze carried the unfamiliar scent of her perfume.
Just like her at this moment, she felt somewhat unfamiliar to him.
"None of my business?" He pondered her words. "Shi Nian, you are still my wife. Do you think all of this has nothing to do with me?"
Shi Nian sneered: "So you still remember that I am your wife."
"Let go!" Shi Nian said, trying to forcefully shake off Lu Yanzhi's hand that was holding her.
The argument between the two grew louder and louder.
Finally, an old voice stopped them.
"Enough!"
Lu Qiansheng, who was originally waiting for the two of them in the villa, was pushed out at this moment.
His face looked very pale.
"Yanzhi, what are you doing!" Lu Qiansheng scolded.
Lu Yanzhi pressed his lips together tightly, his cold eyes fixed on Shi Nian.
"Lu Yanzhi!" Lu Qiansheng's reprimand came once again.
Lu Yanzhi then withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes slightly.
"Grandpa," he called out, but still wouldn't let go of Shi Nian's hand.
Lu Qiansheng glared fiercely at Lu Yanzhi.
The old lady had already come over, held Shi Nian's hand, and said with heartache, "Good child, you've lost so much weight."
"It's all because of this bastard!" Lu Qiansheng grabbed his cane and was about to hit Lu Yanzhi.
Lu Yanzhi didn't flinch, he just stood there straight.
A gentle breeze blew across the lake, carrying a slight chill.
Shi Nian subconsciously shrank back.
Lu Yanzhi frowned slightly and glanced at her again.
Is she afraid of the cold?
He didn't know why, but he always had a strange feeling in his heart.
It seems that something happened that he didn't know about.
"I could hear you arguing from far away!" Lu Qiansheng angrily swung his cane and punched Lu Yanzhi.
"Lu Yanzhi, how many outrageous things have you done these past few days? You still have the nerve to argue with Niannian here!"
"I really don't know how I ended up with a grandson like you!"
"It's only because your parents went abroad and this old man isn't in good health that we could have dealt with you!"
Lu Qian Sheng was beaten until he was out of breath. He was already in poor health. A year ago, Shi Nian and Lu Yanzhi wanted to celebrate their marriage. Now he looked even worse.
"All you do is follow around behind that mistress all day long; you've completely disgraced the Lu family!"
"Do you even remember a single word of the oath you swore when you brought Niannian back and knelt before me?!"
"Are you really not at all remorseful for doing these things now?"
"Cough cough..."
Lu Qiansheng choked and started coughing as he spoke.
"grandfather!"
Lu Yanzhi and Shi Nian both stepped forward, but Lu Qiansheng pushed Lu Yanzhi away.
Shi Nian reached out to pat the old man's back to help him breathe, hoping to make him feel better.
She can still sense who treats her well.
She didn't want to pay any attention to Lu Yanzhi, but she also didn't want anything to happen to the old man.
"Cough cough cough..." Lu Qiansheng was still coughing.
Lu Yanzhi immediately called the family doctor.
They went into the villa, where the family doctor rushed over to stabilize Lu Qiansheng's condition.
Finally, he added, "Although the old man's condition has improved a lot in the past year, and minor tantrums won't cause him any danger, please don't get too angry with him."
After everyone took Lu Qiansheng back to his room and settled him in, the old lady led them out.
The old lady's expression was also not good.
"Yanzhi, can't you just break up with Han Wei?"
Lu Yanzhi lowered his head and remained silent.
The old lady looked disappointed.
“Never mind, you’ve grown up now,” she said. “Now the entire Lu family is in your hands. Everyone says that you, Lu Yanzhi, have single-handedly led the Lu family to suppress the Fu and Huo families, which shows your remarkable abilities.”
"Of course, we, the old couple, can't control you."
"But before you do many things, can you think about them more carefully?"
“Niannian is your wife. You used to say you loved her and that you wanted to marry her.”
"Don't you know how awful the outside world is saying? Don't you think about Niannian's feelings?"
Lu Yanzhi kept his head down, his lips pressed tightly together.
The old lady looked at him without saying a word, and was even more disappointed. Finally, she said, "I wanted to go to the restaurant with you, but now you can go by yourselves."
She held Shi Nian's hand tightly, looking at Lu Yanzhi with a face full of disappointment and frustration.
But Lu Qiansheng had already tried hitting and scolding, and now he really had no other choice.
"Don't leave the manor yet, your grandfather has something to say to you later."
After a slight pause, she stared at Lu Yanzhi and said, "You'll be spending the night at the old house tonight, understand?"
