"I'm just an old man, I live alone, and I just tidy things up a bit."
Hearing Xia Lan's words, Lu Wu smiled and explained.
Qin Yu seemed to have been there before, skillfully taking out bowls and chopsticks and placing them in their proper positions.
Xia Lan had no idea how Qin Yu had done it.
It can only be said that this is the tacit understanding between the two after many years of getting along. Xia Lan felt like an outsider, watching the two of them understand each other's meaning with just a glance, without needing to say a word.
This teamwork is amazing.
The table was quickly filled with dishes, and Lu Wu greeted the two of them.
"I didn't know what you liked to eat, Xia Lan, so I just had him make something! Try it, Old Wang's cooking is pretty good!"
Lu Wu beckoned to Xia Lan and pushed the dishes toward her.
Xia Lan looked at the braised pork on the table, smiling silently.
Qin Yu picked up a piece of braised pork for Lu Wu, and then picked up a piece for Xia Lan.
Seeing Qin Yu's actions, Lu Wu's smile deepened, and his face became slightly moist.
"I never expected to see you get married in my lifetime. You've even become so considerate."
Lu Wu sighed.
He was always very worried about Qin Yu. The kid was so stubborn and opinionated. He was afraid that Qin Yu would end up like him, choosing to be alone for the rest of his life.
He had raised the boy himself, and he knew all too well how much was on Qin Yu's mind.
He never complained; he kept everything to himself. He left without saying goodbye, not even leaving Lu Wu an address.
Lu Wu knew how disappointed he was at that time.
I acted impulsively at the time... I made you worry.
Qin Yu looked at Lu Wu. At that time, he was extremely disappointed with the army and felt heartbroken. He also began to hate Lu Wu.
Because Lu Wu also sided with his superiors at the time, Qin Yu felt betrayed.
After he thought things through, he was shocked to realize that he hadn't even seen her one last time because of his anger.
After returning home, he tried to write to Lu Wu, but he never received a reply.
Lu Wu was disappointed in him and didn't want to talk to him anymore.
The two lost contact.
I know you're feeling bad, but everything will be alright!
Lu Wu patted Qin Yu on the shoulder.
"What exactly happened back then? I wrote you so many letters..."
Qin Yu looked at Lu Wu, wondering why Lu Wu hadn't replied to the letter.
“After you left, I felt heartbroken, so I immediately submitted a report, packed my bags, and came here.”
Because Qin Yu was forced out, Lu Wu also harbored resentment towards his superiors. Without thinking twice, he packed his things and came here.
Even the report was added later.
The two of them looked at each other.
"Alright, you're all the same, evenly matched, so neither of you will say anything more."
Xia Lan laughed and said that both of them said they had a short temper.
One of them grabbed a bag and left, and the other followed closely behind, also packing their luggage. What perfect teamwork!
Lu Wu and Qin Yu coughed to ease the awkwardness.
"Eat the vegetables! Eat the vegetables!"
Lu Wu quickly greeted them.
"Uncle Wu, we've finally run into each other this time, please come back with me!"
Qin Yu noticed Xia Lan out of the corner of his eye, and as soon as her bowl was empty, he put food on her plate.
He said to Lu Wu.
Lu Wu was stunned.
"It's enough if you just want to come and see me! I'm an old man, I won't be a burden to you! I have hands and feet, I can take care of myself."
Lu Wu shook his head and refused.
"I've already told my parents about this!"
Qin Yu looked at Lu Wu and knew he would refuse, but this time, he had Qin Jun's support.
When Qin Jun called Qin Yu, he was quite surprised to receive the call.
This was the first time his son had ever called him.
"Son, what's wrong?"
"Dad, I have something to tell you and I'd like to hear your opinion."
Qin Yu said to Qin Jun.
Qin Jun was genuinely curious. Qin Yu always had his own ideas, so why would he ask for Qin Jun's opinion?
"Go ahead, I'm listening!"
After Qin Yu told Qin Jun about Lu Wu, Qin Jun paused for a moment.
"You've finally met him, what do you plan to do?"
Qin Jun asked into the phone, while holding a pen in one hand and making marks on a piece of paper.
"I want to take care of him!"
Qin Yu said earnestly to Qin Jun.
Qin Jun thought about it seriously. "Although he is not your father, he has raised you. It is right for you to want to take care of him."
"Since it's right, then as your father, I will definitely support you!"
"Thank you, Dad."
Qin Jun's words warmed Qin Yu's heart.
"Alright, bring the person back! I'll have your mom prepare a room for you!"
Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Qin Jun's lips curled into a smile.
This is why Qin Yu invited Lu Wu to come back to the capital with him.
"I'm not going!"
Lu Wu was not as easily persuaded as Qin Yu had thought.
"Why?"
Qin Yu pursed his lips.
"Come back with me, Lanlan and I will move out and take care of you! We won't let you suffer!"
"I'm not going!"
Lu Wu's signature pursed lips mean he disagrees.
"Give me at least one reason!"
Qin Yu slammed his fist on the table, angrily saying.
"No reason, I'm not going!"
Lu Wu picked up his bowl, ignored Qin Yu, and started eating by himself.
The atmosphere instantly reached its peak of tension.
Qin Yu threw down his chopsticks and strode out.
Xia Lan watched the two suddenly fall out and silently ate her meal.
He didn't forget to put a piece of food on Lu Wu's plate, who was just eating rice.
"Dad Wu, eat your vegetables, don't get so angry that you just shovel rice into your mouth."
