There was silence in the room for a while.
Lu Yi hugged Lin Zhizhi, his nose filled with the sweet and familiar fragrance, and the warmth soothed his emotions.
Lu Yi didn't want Lin Zhizhi to worry about him, and he also wanted Lin Zhizhi to know more about him, including his past. It was better to tell it in person than to let an unimportant person know it when he suddenly appeared in front of him.
Lu Yi hugged her for a while, and worried that Lin Zhizhi would get tired after standing for too long, he quickly let go of Lin Zhizhi, stood up, and moved his hand from Lin Zhizhi's waist to her shoulder. Lu Yi hugged Lin Zhizhi and walked towards the sofa.
Sitting on the sofa, Lu Yi held Lin Zhizhi's hand, looked into Lin Zhizhi's concerned eyes, and began to speak frankly, "Zhizhi, I received a call from my father this afternoon. His family is now in City A..."
Lin Zhizhi could feel the coldness and indifferent sarcasm when Lu Yi mentioned his father, but it was only revealed at the beginning. In the subsequent narration, it didn't seem like he was telling a story about himself, but rather like a bystander retelling what he had seen.
Lin Zhizhi knew that his heart was not so calm. This was something he would never forget in his life. Lin Zhizhi felt sorry for his experience, but was powerless and could only hold Lu Yi's hand tightly.
Although Lin Zhizhi saw that the author gave a general account of Lu Yi's life experience when she was reading the novel before, it was not explained in detail. She only knew that Lu Yi and his father had a bad relationship, and Lu Yi himself never mentioned the past.
The heroine Song Nuan was also afraid of reminding Lu Yi of unhappy things, so she deliberately avoided such topics.
Listening to Lu Yi's calm narration, Lin Zhizhi finally understood what Lu Yi had been through.
It turns out that Lu Yi's mother and father were college classmates. Lu Yi's mother came from a small rural village in the south and was the only daughter in the family. Although the family did not have much money, Lu Yi's grandparents did their best to raise their only daughter, and Lu Yi's mother also worked hard to get into college.
Although Lu Yi's father's home is in the city, his parents are just ordinary workers, and several members of the family are crowded in a small dormitory allocated by the unit.
Lu Yi's parents got married after graduating from college. They worked hard together to start a business, but just when their business was starting to gain momentum and had begun to show results, Lu Yi's grandmother forced Lu Yi's mother to have a child, and her words were full of sharp criticism.
Coincidentally, Lu Yi's mother became pregnant soon after. With the persuasion of Lu Yi's father and grandmother, Lu Yi's mother gave up her work and stayed at home to take care of the baby.
Later I learned that Lu Yi's grandmother advised Lu Yi's mother not to work and just focus on her pregnancy because she felt that the company's business belonged to her son alone and she was afraid that Lu Yi's mother would take it away.
Soon after Lu Yi's mother became pregnant and stayed at home to take care of the baby, Lu Yi's father came home late almost every day. Even on the day Lu Yi was born, Lu Yi's father did not come, and only arrived late the next day.
Lu Yi's mother suffered from postpartum depression after giving birth. In order to prevent her family from knowing, she pretended to be fine. After her family went back, her symptoms became more serious, but no one in the Lu family noticed it, not even Lu Yi's father.
Finally, it was Lu Yi's mother who cheered up after seeing the little Lu Yi lying beside her. Later, Lu Yi's mother proposed to go back to work in the company, but was rejected by Lu Yi's father on the grounds that Lu Yi was still too young and should wait until he grows up.
Lu Yi's mother waited until Lu Yi went to elementary school. Lu Yi's father again disagreed with Lu Yi's mother going out to work on the grounds that there was no one at home to take care of Lu Yi's studies and that Lu Yi needed the company of at least one of his parents.
After Lu Yi entered junior high school, Lu Yi's father could no longer use the same reason to disagree. He directly said that Lu Yi's mother had not worked for too long, and that there were special people in charge of the company's affairs, so she didn't need to work. He still wanted her to be a housewife at home.
This time, Lu Yi's mother firmly refused and insisted on going out to work. The two had a big fight. It was also after the fight that Lu Yi's mother discovered that there was something wrong with her body. She went to the hospital for a check-up and found out that she had breast cancer, and it was already in the late stage.
And when he came out of the hospital and was walking on the road in a daze, he happened to run into Lu Yi's father and his mistress's family of three walking affectionately by the roadside.
It was then that Lu Yi's mother realized that her husband, her own bedmate, had been on business trips from time to time and working overtime and coming home late over the years. It turned out that he had become someone else's husband and the father of other children.
At that moment, Lu Yi's mother was very calm. She did not rush forward and pull hair with the shameless man like a shrew. Instead, she put away the report form, straightened her hair, and went in the opposite direction of the three people.
Later, in her last days, Lu Yi's mother pretended to agree not to go out to work and stay at home to take care of the children, but the prerequisite was that Lu Yi's father would give 15% of his shares to Lu Yi.
Lu Yi's father considered the consequences of agreeing or not, and thought that Lu Yi was his own son after all, and they were all members of the Lu family anyway, so he agreed.
Lu Yi had 5% when he was born, and now he has a total of 20%. In the future, he will be able to live a worry-free life even with the dividends from shares.
Later, Lu Yi's mother received evidence of Lu Yi's father's infidelity and, with the help of a lawyer, successfully made Lu Yi's father lose a lot of money. Not only all the cash and money in his name, more than half of the real estate, and 6% of the company's shares were awarded to Lu Yi's mother.
Under the murderous gaze of the Lu family, Lu Yi's mother calmly left the Lu family, the home where she thought she would live for the rest of her life.
After Lu Yi's mother got divorced, she returned to the warm harbor where she grew up, where her parents were always waiting for her to return. However, she only stayed with her beloved parents for half a month before she passed away peacefully forever.
Later, Lu Yi, who was just a little boy with a childish face, left the Lu family when the mistress and the illegitimate child came in, and never went back.
Later, Lu Yi sold most of the shares left to him by his mother and his own shares to the company's second largest shareholder, resulting in Lu Yi's father having only a small share larger than that shareholder. He has always been worried that his position will be taken away by that shareholder.
This has also made him dare not make mistakes over the years. He has always been cautious and dared not make any risky decisions. He has always adhered to stable development. However, in today's era of rapid development and continuous innovation, this decision will undoubtedly not last long.
Lu Yi's father also knew this, so this time he came to City A probably with the intention of taking the few remaining shares in Lu Yi's hands.
