As dusk settled, a cool breeze blew.
Lu Baoyun followed Lu Yi down the mountain with trepidation.
When Lu Han got home, the banquet had already ended, and she and her classmates and friends had gone somewhere for the second half of the event.
"Baoyun, what happened to you? Why are you in this state?"
The eldest sister, Lu Baozhi, had to rush back to the hospital for her shift. She had just changed her clothes and went downstairs when she saw her fourth sister, who was walking in with a blank look in her eyes.
"I...I'm fine."
Lu Baozhi is a doctor.
She can't tell if a living person has a problem.
Judging from her distracted state, she must have suffered a great shock.
Just as he was about to speak, his third sister, Lu Baoqi, ran over from the kitchen.
"You say you're fine? Your trouser legs are so dirty, and there's grass in your hair... Fourth Sister, you skipped Lu Han's banquet, did you go off to fool around with someone?"
She never attended a proper university.
But I heard from a college student assistant on set that there are many secrets between male and female students.
It's even more exciting than the gossip in the entertainment industry.
Fourth sister Lu Baoyun was a beauty from a young age, and with the Lu family's status, countless boys were vying for her attention!
"Third sister, do you think I'm like you, indiscriminate in my eating and drinking habits?"
Lu Baoyun was in low spirits and unable to refute.
Qin Fengying was making a light late-night snack with Wu Ma when she heard her daughters talking and came out with a soup pot.
"Stop making wild guesses, I'm just worried about Lu Yi..."
Bang!
Qin Fengying's hands trembled, the earthenware pot slipped and crashed heavily to the ground, splashing various mushrooms and soup everywhere.
The three of them were startled by this sudden turn of events.
Slightly tipsy, Lu Zhengming was resting upstairs when he heard the noise and hurriedly ran downstairs.
Seeing Qin Fengying standing there dumbfounded, and her three daughters huddled together, Lu Zhengming sobered up considerably.
"What's wrong?"
Aunt Wu picked up the mop and dustpan and quickly tidied up.
"Master, Madam accidentally spilled some soup, I'll make another one!"
Lu Zhengming held Qin Fengying's hand and blew on it, "Did it burn you?"
Lu Baozhi took out a medicine box from the cabinet next to her and looked for a burn ointment.
"No need, I'm fine."
Qin Fengying slumped down on a chair.
What shocked her was not that her fourth daughter went to see Lu Yi, but that when she was making soup, she only thought about Lu Han's taste and didn't think about Lu Yi's preferences at all.
That's his own biological son!
He was injured in a car accident and preferred to stay in that gloomy and terrifying place rather than return to his spacious home.
Today, not only did they buy a car for their adopted son, but they also held a family banquet to make him happy.
What would the biological son have felt at that time?
If a minor can't even get care from his own mother, who else can he rely on?
"Mom! Please don't cook anymore. Aunt Wu's cooking is excellent, and we all like her food!"
Lu Baoqi poured a glass of water and pushed it in front of Qin Fengying.
Her foot is fine.
I was so happy today that I walked briskly and forgot that I had twisted my ankle this morning.
Lu Baozhi loathed her younger brother Lu Yi to the extreme.
She used to love staying at home, but ever since Lu Yi came back, the atmosphere has become less harmonious.
So many problems always seem to appear out of nowhere at home. I really don't know if he's just incompatible with everyone in the family.
She glanced at her watch, picked up her bag, and sighed, "Mom and Dad, I'm going to my shift!"
Lu Zhengming glanced at his fourth daughter and noticed her embarrassed expression, and he roughly understood what was going on.
"Baoyun, go upstairs and rest. We can talk about it later."
It seems I was turned away.
It's strange, Lu Yi used to be quiet but had a mild temper, so how did he suddenly become so rebellious?
He couldn't believe that a child who grew up in poverty would be willing to leave the Lu family.
Lu Yi showed no mercy even to his closest friend Bao Yun, which was not as simple as playing hard to get to attract everyone's attention.
"I'm going to check on Fourth Sister."
Lu Baoqi was purely curious and wanted to know what Lu Yi had said that had turned her fourth sister into this horrible state.
"Go ahead and talk to her nicely."
Qin Fengying propped her head up with one hand and waved wearily.
She felt terrible. It wasn't so bad when there were many people around, but now that the house was so quiet, she started to worry about Lu Yi.
When Lu Yi lived in the backyard cottage before, she never kept him in her heart.
"Honey, do you think Yi'er will come back?"
Lu Zhengming already knew the answer, but he couldn't say it outright.
"How could he not come back? Where else could he go if he didn't come back!"
The couple sat together for a long time without exchanging any further words.
...
Lu Baoyun lay on the bed, curled up like a shrimp.
Lu Yi, what is the reason for your resolute departure from the Lu family?
I don't believe you're petty and intolerant of others.
Even if Lu Han is an eyesore to you, it won't affect your life as the young master of the Lu family. Just the Lu family's background can solve a lot of trouble for you, right?
"...I ask you, aside from mealtimes, when have you ever seen me enter the main building?"
Lu Yi's words suddenly popped into my mind.
etc!
The day my tablet broke, Lu Han brought Lu Yi upstairs, saying his internet was lagging and asking Lu Yi to take a look.
I think I installed a camera in my room.
I initially did it to make it easier to shoot short videos of my daily life, but later I found the editing process too troublesome, so I put it aside and never paid attention to it again.
Thinking of this, she opened her phone and showed the surveillance footage.
