"Grandpa, I'm back."
Lu Cizhou, dressed in noble attire, passed through layers of security personnel before returning to his home.
The three-story old house surrounded by layers of walls and the exquisite furniture inside the house all reveal the identity of the person in front of him.
The old man sitting on the leather sofa in the living room put down the newspaper in his hand when he heard the voice. He first took off his reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, and then slowly looked up at the young man in front of him.
"Well, school is done."
Lu Cizhou had changed from his usual calm and gentle appearance. He was now cold and silent, looking like someone who wanted to keep strangers away.
Only when the old man asked questions did the frost in his eyes gradually fade away.
"I've successfully graduated, and the next step is to find a job."
Grandpa Lu stared at the young man in front of him carefully, and a satisfied smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, I have seen your performance over the years.
Many of the policies and suggestions you put forward during your time at school are excellent and very suitable for promotion in our country.
Now that you've graduated, it's a great time to show your talents. Many things still require young people like you to create new experiences and spark new ideas."
Lu Cizhou pursed his lips slightly, paused for a moment, and then spoke.
"Grandpa, maybe I want to take a completely different path."
Lu Changan frowned slightly, and the traces of time had already appeared on his face.
Lu Cizhou could clearly see the fine lines on the other person's forehead.
"Ci Zhou, you have to understand that I am old and can't help you for a long time.
Perhaps in a few years, you won't have the power or the capital to act so recklessly. Are you sure you want to continue messing around?"
Lu Chang'an, an old leader who has been firmly at the forefront of the revolution from the very beginning.
He has sacrificed so much to be where he is today.
His wife, his children, his family and friends.
Countless people died in the war, and there were countless struggles between life and death.
To date, he has sacrificed so much for this country.
Now the Lu family only has this one grandson left.
Lu Changan didn't want to make things difficult for the other party, but he really had no other choice.
Because he is old...
When people leave, the tea gets cold. This is not just a saying.
"Grandpa, I know what I'm saying. But maybe if I let go of everything in front of me, I can get what I really want."
The old man took a deep breath, and the disapproval in his eyes and the anger in his heart were suppressed.
Because he knew he was sorry for his grandson.
If it weren't for him, his son wouldn't have sacrificed himself, and his daughter-in-law wouldn't have followed him in suicide.
The only bloodline of the Lu family would never become so withdrawn.
He is so smart, so outstanding...
"Ci Zhou, I don't want to hurt you in the name of doing good for you.
But I am your family member and your elder leader.
Your contributions to the country over the years are obvious to all, but they cannot be made public for various reasons.
But whether it is my expectation or the above-mentioned eagerness to recruit talents, our country needs you.
You shouldn't act silly. You have been knowledgeable and talented since childhood, so you should know the story of Zhongyong.
Human life seems long, but in reality it is only a few decades.
The choices you face determine your future destiny.
You are willful now, but what will happen to you in the future? Grandpa is gone, who will give you a chance to turn back?
Cizhou, I don’t understand what you have done over the years, but I know that you must love this country.
This country needs you, your brilliant ideas, your abilities, and your vision.
It's enough to bring about epochal changes in the entire country, so I can't let you do whatever you want."
Lu Cizhou looked at his white-haired grandfather in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
His grandfather raised him since he was a child.
She is the most important mentor and guiding star in his life.
I took on his attitude and will.
His style and his thoughts have been perfectly passed down in myself.
But it was precisely because of this that he missed a lot.
Lu Cizhou has dedicated his entire life to the country.
Throughout his life, he still loved his motherland and was willing to dedicate himself to it.
But apart from that, he also wants to have his own independent thoughts.
He also wanted to live an imaginary life.
Facing the questioning of his relatives, Lu Cizhou carefully said what he had thought about for a long time.
"Grandpa, you don't have to worry. No matter what, I will always love this land deeply.
I will also use all my energy to develop and build it.
But I think there is more than one path in life. Maybe the one you arranged for me is the safest and most beneficial to me.
But how do you know if you don’t try other ways? Other ways may not work.
Grandpa, please believe in me and give me a chance.
Three years. If I still can’t achieve results in three years, then I will listen to you.”
Lu Changan looked at his grandson in front of him. Both of them were silent for a long time. Until Lu Changan saw the other's pleading eyes, he couldn't help but lower his eyes.
"Originally, because you proposed important proposals for economic reform and open development, the higher-ups wanted you to be in charge of economic development after you graduated.
But now it is obvious that you are unwilling to do so. In that case, I will not force you.
But there is one thing you must promise me."
Although the old man compromised, he obviously had other demands.
When Lu Cizhou heard this, he seemed to have thought of something. A hint of tenderness appeared in his eyes and he nodded very obediently.
