Staying at my best friend's house, she was spotted by her gangster uncle

Childhood paused for a few seconds. At first she didn't know how to answer, but then she felt there was no need to hide it:

"My parents want me to earn money early and marry a rich man."

If it wasn’t because of the early morning, if it wasn’t because she didn’t go back home, if it wasn’t because she made a bowl of noodles, if it wasn’t because she and he sat down to eat the bowl of noodles, childhood wouldn’t have said this.

Yes, any response made under certain circumstances has its premises.

Her answer obviously shocked Lu Tingshen. It was too direct and might not be accepted by others. Did her parents want to sell their daughter?

Looking at such a delicate face, he couldn't imagine what kind of parents would say such words.

"how about you?"

While eating, he tried to test her opinion. If she thought so, then she was no different from those gold diggers. He didn't want to believe it, of course he didn't believe it.

He didn't believe that such a simple little girl would have such thoughts. It was unbelievable.

My childhood felt a bit cold, probably because my heart was cold:

"I have no say in front of them. I can only follow their decision."

Lu Tingshen seemed to no longer feel hungry. He felt like he couldn't eat anymore and took a sip of water to calm his mood.

Childhood sensed his change, for that was her purpose.

She said it on purpose, she just wanted him to think that she was a gold digger and that he should stay as far away from her as possible, because she was not his prey.

Her childhood was simple but not stupid. She could see that Lu Tingshen meant something to her, which was nothing more than the things between men and women, but she didn't want to.

Yes. She didn't want to, no matter from what angle she didn't want to.

She knew that she was an ordinary person and ordinary people should live ordinary lives. It was impossible for the two of them to be together, so why not stop the impossible thing.

In her childhood, she was deliberately told that her parents wanted to associate with rich and powerful people, and that being vain meant hooking up with rich men.

As his face grew increasingly gloomy, she confirmed her thoughts.

Yes, she was not as gullible as he thought. In other words, she was not that stupid.

Lu Tingshen watched Tongnian finish his meal bit by bit, but he had most of his meal left. Tongnian did not ask any questions and just cooperated with him in the performance.

In life, who isn’t an actor?

It’s just that some people are willing to act, and some are forced to act. It’s nothing more than these two types. Tong Nian certainly didn’t want to act, but in order to stay away from such dangerous people and things, she had to act.

She is still young. 18 is not the age when she should understand so much, but she is different.

She has no one to lean on, no warm harbor worthy of her staying.

If most people want such an opportunity, then getting involved with Lu Tingshen is equivalent to stepping into the upper class. Even if it is just for fun, she will get a lot of benefits, which are enough for her to live for more than ten years.

But she didn't want it. She wasn't sure if she couldn't do it or control these things that didn't belong to her, including people.

"Come on, I'll take you to the guest room."

Lu Tingshen stood up and left the restaurant. He didn't mean it, but when she said she wanted to find a rich man to marry, he felt inexplicably annoyed.

There was no reason for this irritability, and he still couldn't explain it.

Childhood put down his chopsticks and followed him.

This castle-level building is very large. The first floor is the hall, dining room and kitchen, and there are several rooms for collections.

The second floor was where Lu Tingshen's parents lived before. No one could enter the entire floor, and of course no one dared to enter.

Mr. Lu has the same temper as Lu Tingshen. He has settled abroad since his mother passed away, but people are allowed to enter his room, and only servants clean it every day.

Lu Siyao and her parents live on the third floor. I have never met her parents because Lu Siyao's mother has been abroad.

That's right, it's to accompany Mr. Lu. Although Mr. Lu is not at the point where he needs someone to take care of him, it is still necessary for him to have family around him. After all, Lu Tingyu is in the overseas branch and has been supervising the overseas business.

So that means, except when Lu Siyao comes back to stay for a few days, the third floor is empty most of the time?

um, yes.

The fourth and fifth floors are idle, and Tongyu has no idea what the other rooms are used for. They should be left for their descendants.

The Lu family has an unwritten rule that one cannot move out after marriage, as a large family believes in harmony at home.

Lu Tingshen was on the sixth floor, but he did not arrange her on the sixth floor. He just stopped at the fifth floor.

Yes, he didn't, and he was glad that he didn't at that time.

Tongnian was brought to a guest room by him. It had everything one could need. Lu Tingshen stood at the door and did not go in:

"It's getting late, let's rest."

Lu Tingshen left without even hearing her response. Tongnian felt a little touched, as if she had been separated from him.

Yes, isn’t this good?

She didn't think it was a bad thing. Look, even this guest room, which was usually not occupied, was more luxurious and comfortable than her entire home.

She had never slept in such a soft bed, seen such a beautiful crystal chandelier, and didn't know that hot water could be produced as soon as she turned on the faucet.

Everything here is so new, except that it doesn't belong to her.

When I was a child, I didn’t even dare to dirty the bedding because it was made of silk, so delicate and comfortable.

Childhood is just a small corner that was lifted up, and it went into sleep so quickly.

Yes, it was already past two in the morning, which was far beyond the limits of her schedule.

She fell asleep so quickly, which was the exact opposite of Lu Tingshen.

Lu Tingshen smoked a cigarette on the balcony. It was a bit cold, but bearable.

The wind in winter is cold, just like people’s hearts.

Why is there no one in the world as simple and pure as he wants?

Yes, most people nowadays are materialistic and realistic. You think the person you meet is an exception, but in fact, he is the same kind of person.

Is it really that hard to find pure love and people?

If it wasn't difficult, he wouldn't have to stay single in his thirties. Getting married? He felt that he would never do that in his lifetime.

Yes, he can live a life of debauchery and games, but he will never enter into marriage. After all, no one is worth it.

Lu Tingshen put out his cigarette and went back to his room.

This night, sleepless.

The next morning, Childhood cleaned the room, and it looked as if no one had ever been there, with no trace left.

Tongnian came to Lu Siyao's room. She was still sleeping. Logically, she should be suffering from jet lag, so she didn't need to say hello to her. A WeChat message would do the trick anyway.

She quietly closed the door and prepared to leave the Lu family.

The morning sun was not warm at all, and the breeze blew the fallen leaves, which felt like a knife scratching my face, making me feel a little cold.

She saw a person running towards her from a distance on the lawn. It should be Lu Tingshen.

Doesn't he sleep?

It was around 6 a.m. yesterday and now it’s a.m., only a few hours. Was he going for a morning run?
