Chapter 302 Recalling the truth about the disaster
The light in my mind, the smell of ash from burning wood, the lingering smell of smoke in the air, the necklace shining in the sun.
These elements gradually overlapped in Lu Xiaoang's mind.
It made his head feel like it was about to explode with severe pain.
He had already taken care of An Ran who was lying on the ground. He squatted on the ground and covered his head in pain.
An Ran was only temporarily fainting due to low blood sugar. She soon woke up and climbed up while rubbing her sore waist.
When I stood up, I saw Lu Xiaoang half-kneeling on the ground.
"Brother Xiaoang, what's wrong with you?" An Ran asked with some confusion.
But there was no response.
It was desolate, bleak and silent here, and the atmosphere really frightened An Ran. She walked to Lu Xiaoang with the necklace in her hand, and Gu Dongxiang went over to push Lu Xiaoang's shoulder.
"Brother Xiaoang, let's go back. I have found the necklace."
When An Ran pushed Lu Xiaoang, Lu Xiaoang suddenly opened his eyes violently.
His eyes were red, and the hatred that burst out from them frightened An Ran so much that she turned pale and couldn't help but step back several steps.
An Ran didn't know what was wrong with Lu Xiaoang. She only knew that the look in Lu Xiaoang's eyes just now was scarier than that of a man with a buzz cut.
"What's wrong, Brother Gong, you're trying to scare me, I'm afraid." An Ran's teeth were trembling as she spoke.
She still didn't get any answer. In fact, she knew that from the look in Lu Xiaoang's eyes, he would probably say anything.
But An Ran still opened her mouth to ask a few questions. She felt that making some noise could give her some courage.
Lu Xiaoang said nothing. He tried hard to hide the hatred in his eyes, and his gaze fell on the necklace in An Ran's hand.
That is the necklace that Lu Xiaoang's mother often wore.
It is inlaid with a priceless emerald.
But the most important value of the necklace is not the necklace itself, but the key that can open the safe deposit box opened by the Lu family in a Swiss bank.
In the early years, the elders of the Lu family were worried about keeping their wealth and deposited it abroad.
On the day when the Lu family was about to leave, the door of the ancestral home was locked from the outside. That was the day when the Lu family had a dinner party.
Before the disaster, Lu Xiaoang was taken away by An Qingshan and asked to go to a nearby street to buy popsicles.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaoang lost his money before he had gone far.
He returned to his ancestral home to ask An Qingshan for more money, but he did not look for An Qingshan. After his mother learned that Lu Xiaoang wanted money, she took Lu Xiaoang upstairs to find money.
While he was going upstairs to look for money, a huge fire suddenly broke out in the ancestral home without any warning.
The whole house was almost submerged by the sea in an instant.
There was a strong smell of gasoline in the air, and it was obvious that there was a riot.
The mother wanted to take Lu Xiaoang away, but found that there was no way out.
With no way out, the mother opened the window in the room.
She wanted to jump out of the window with Lu Xiaoang.
But the Lu family's house was tall, and Lu Xiaoang's mother lived on the first floor, in the top floor room.
The window was nearly six meters from the ground, and it was not easy to jump from there.
The most critical thing was that although the window was not on fire, other wood nearby was burning. After the window was opened, bursts of thick smoke would occasionally flow into the house, choking the mother and son so much that they could not speak.
Even in such a difficult situation, Mother Lu did not give up escaping. She tore the bed sheet and wanted to tie up Lu Xiaoang and let him go.
When Lu's mother had no one to turn to, Lu Xiaoang saw Lu Yonghe upstairs.
At that time, there was still no estrangement between Lu Xiaoang and Lu Yonghe. He pinched his nose, rubbed the tears in his eyes, and shouted with a choked voice:
"Aunt, help me."
After Lu Xiaoang called her aunt, Mother Lu stopped tearing the sheets. She took the sheets that had been tied to a certain length and walked to the window, begging Lu Yonghe to help save her child.
But Lu Yonghe put forward a condition at this time. She wanted the necklace on Lu's mother's neck.
In the face of the death of her child, what could the necklace mean? Mother Lu did not hesitate, she took off the necklace and threw it down the stairs.
Mother Lu agreed with Lu Yonghe that she would tie Lu Xiaoang up with the bed sheet and put him in front of her, with the bed sheet above her head. Mother Lu would then let go and let Lu Yonghe catch Lu Xiaoang.
After collecting the things, Lu Yonghe agreed to come.
But when Lu's mother put the bed sheet at the bottom, Lu Yonghe clapped her hands, turned around and left. She did not keep her promise.
At this moment, Mother Lu was exhausted. She knew she had been fooled. This was the first time in her well-educated life that she had ever used a dirty word:
"You son of a bitch, Lu Yonghe, you will get retribution for doing this."
Lu Yonghe turned around and smiled sinisterly and complacently:
"Why should I suffer retribution? It was not me who set this up, so you should blame Dad for standing on the wrong side, secretly investing and helping those who should be helped.
The front door is locked. I have the key but I won't go and open the door. Think about it, I don't even want to save my own father, so how can I save your son?
ridiculous. ”
After saying that, Lu Yonghe walked away with a big laugh.
Lu Xiaoang was hanging in the air, crying anxiously. After a while, Lu's mother Xu Dong fainted upstairs and she let go of the bed sheet in her hands.
In this way, Lu Xiaoang fell to the ground.
He fainted from the fall, and when he woke up after a long while, there was a vast ocean behind him, and the whole house was shaking.
There were also burning wood falling on Lu Xiaoang.
Only the main fire was burning in the house, and even screams could be heard.
At that moment, Lu Xiaoang knew that all his relatives died in the sea. In order to survive, he desperately crawled out of his ancestral home and crawled onto the nearby streets.
Before falling asleep, Lu Xiaoang saw An Qingshan's car.
Lu Yonghe was urging An Qingshan to get in the car. An Qingshan asked anxiously:
"I clearly asked Xiaoang to come to this street to buy popsicles. How did he see me?"
"If you see him, look for him tomorrow. How can such a big child be lost? We have to leave quickly and create evidence of his presence. Don't come back and say that we were the one who let him go."
An Qingshan was still a little hesitant at first, but after being urged by Lu Yonghe, he did not stay any longer and drove away.
Before falling asleep, Lu Xiaoang watched An Qingshan's car disappear from his sight little by little.
At that time, a child actually experienced the feeling of being hopeless.
When he woke up again, Lu Xiaoang was already in another old apartment of the Lu family. He had actually forgotten everything that had happened that day.
In fact, Lu Yonghe didn't believe that Lu Xiaoang had forgotten at first. She tried many times but to no avail. She felt that a child would not pose any threat, so she let down her guard.
But now, Lu Xiaoang remembered it all.
He really wanted to walk up to An Ran and snatch the necklace back, but he suppressed his emotions.
More than two decades have passed, and many things are urgent at this moment.
He will find out about those things.
He will settle all the accounts one by one.
