He secretly changed his character

Lu Qingya said nothing.

Lu Zichu understood, "I don't think he will blame you."

Lu Qingya shook his head, "I'm not afraid to face him."

Lu Zichu was surprised, "Then what are you afraid of?"

"What I'm afraid of is facing myself." Lu Qingya looked at the night sky outside the window and said in a faint tone, "Facing the childish, dark, twisted, despicable, and dishonorable self."

It is easy to face others, but it is difficult to face yourself, especially a self who is not glorious and has done bad things.

Lu Zichu sighed inwardly.

***

When I woke up again, the sky was bright.

He rubbed his temples, still feeling a little groggy from a hangover. It was the alarm clock that woke him up. He had already bought a plane ticket to Yanjing for today.

When I sat up from the bed, I saw Lu Qingya also woke up on the sofa not far away.

He still didn't look very good.

Lu Zichu felt that Lu Qingya had spoken to him in a deep way yesterday, even though they were just strangers, and had revealed his inner concerns, but he kept avoiding one topic.

That is whether he takes Zhuo Bufan seriously.

Did he treat it as a game, was he just a passer-by? Or did he treat it as a game, but ended up making it real?

He didn't know.

Lu Qingya smoothed his messy hair and thought for a while before asking, "What time is your flight?"

"Eight forty." Lu Zichu asked as he stood up, "Are you going?"

Lu Qingya hesitated for a moment and said, "Go ahead."

The two of them got up and took a morning shower.

Half an hour later, they were already on the car arranged by the Lu family to the airport.

The two of them didn't say anything else. They had both been drinking yesterday, so they just wanted to get it off their chest.

But after that point in time, it’s actually not appropriate to talk about those things anymore, whether it’s the relationship or the feelings.

Three hours later, the two got off the plane.

I took a taxi from the airport and went to the Zhuo family’s old house.

The Zhuo family's old house is located in the eastern suburbs of Yanjing. It is a villa in the mountains. It covers a large area and is magnificent.

There were many servants in the house, and a housekeeper stood at the door to greet and see off guests and to arrange the affairs of the inner house. It was quite a scene.

The housekeeper should be an old man in the house. He knew Lu Qingya. He was very terrified when he saw him coming. He immediately took two steps at a time and stepped forward to greet him, "Master Lu~"

"Steward Xia."

Butler Xia greeted, "Long time no see, Master Lu."

Lu Qingya said, "I came here with Zichu, and I came to see Mr. Zhuo."

The three of them then walked inside together.

On the way, I could already see the difference. Although there were many servants in the house, they all walked in a hurry and had sad expressions.

There was this heavy atmosphere everywhere.

When they reached the third floor, Bai Lu just pushed the door open and walked out. He was not alone, but there was a child of eight or nine years old beside him.

He looks somewhat similar to Zhuo Bufan.

Bai Lu also saw the two people, so he told Butler Xia to take the child down first.

The child was unhappy, and Bai Lu comforted him for a long time before he walked away sobbing.

Bai Lu then formally greeted them, "Mr. Lu, Zichu."

Lu Zichu nodded and asked again, "Who is that child?"

Bai Lu forced a smile, "Bufan and his ex-wife."

Lu Zichu didn't know about this yet. He had never asked Fei Mingze about Zhuo Bufan before.

"How old is the child?"

"Eight years old."

"Very similar to Mr. Zhuo."

"They just look alike, but their personalities are totally different." Bai Lu's tired expression finally showed some light. When he talked about this child, one could feel that he liked and cared about him. "Xiao Ran is too quiet, introverted, shy, and sensitive. Bufan is very wild at this time."

Lu Zichu agreed, "It can be seen that Mr. Zhuo has never been a worry-free child since he was young."

Bai Lu forced a smile and said to Lu Qingya, "Mr. Lu, Bufan has been waiting for you for a long time."

Lu Qingya nodded and pushed open the door behind him.

Bai Lu led Lu Zichu away from here and said on the way, "Bufan just called the law firm to make a will."

Lu Zichu said from the bottom of his heart, "Compared to him, I am more worried about you."

Seeing how worried he was about her, Bai Lu smiled in relief and comforted him in return, "Zi Chu, don't worry. I will live well."

Lu Zichu was a little unconvinced.

"The Zhuo family is dwindling, with only a few close relatives left. A month ago, we went abroad to get our marriage certificate, and our relationship as husband and wife has become legal. The Zhuo family's old house was left to Xiao Ran, with three-tenths of the property going to me and seven-tenths to him. At the same time, I was designated as Xiao Ran's legal guardian.

"Originally, I didn't want anything from the Zhuo family. The 30-70 split was also the result of Bufan's concession." Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief. "Besides, I have earned a lot in the entertainment industry over the years, enough for me to live a comfortable life."

Lu Zichu finally believed that Zhuo Bufan had a purpose for making such an arrangement. Xiao Ran could have been raised entirely by his biological mother. This would be good for his growth, and his biological mother would surely be happy with it.

But he appointed Bailu as his guardian.

First of all, the children are close to him.

Secondly, it also gave Bai Lu a reason to live.

Otherwise, Lu Zichu had no doubt that Bai Lu would be a walking corpse for the rest of his life, with no desire to live. He would soon follow Zhuo Bufan.

The existence of this child is a beacon of light and hope for him, which can bring a little warmth and nostalgia to the rest of his life.

Only then did Lu Zichu feel relieved.

On this day, Lu Zichu and Lu Qingya did not leave.

Stayed overnight at the Zhuo family’s old house.

Bai Lu has never gone to Zhuo Bufan's place. Ever since Lu Qingya came, he has left both the people and the space to the two of them.

At night, he, Lu Zichu and Xiao Ran lived in the same room. Xiao Ran seemed to be unaware of Zhuo Bufan's misfortune and was not overwhelmed by the shadow of death.

The other people in the family didn't have the heart to tell him, so they just tacitly protected his rare peaceful time.

Lu Zichu played Go with him, told him stories, and read picture books with him.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock that I coaxed him to sleep.

Bai Lu and Lu Zichu stayed up all night. They sat in the living room, under the dim light, occasionally talking to each other.

Although the two people have not known each other for a long time and have not met each other many times, they both admire each other's character and personality. So they are like close friends for many years. Sometimes, even without saying a word, you can understand the other person's thoughts or what he wants to say.

If it weren't for the current heavy atmosphere, it would have made people feel deeply comforted.

When it was daybreak, someone knocked on the door.

When Lu Zichu saw Bai Lu's already bad face, his face instantly turned pale.

Lu Zichu also jumped up from the sofa and went to answer the door.

Butler Xia's eyes were red and his face was full of sorrow. He looked at Lu Zichu and spoke weakly, "The young master is gone..."
