strong attack meets stubborn subject
Chapter 67
The moon and stars are scarce, and the night in winter is extremely cold. Lu Ao sleeps comfortably in Tang Yi's warm bed. Tang Yi really can't fall asleep!
In winter, the day came later, Tang Yi looked at the time in the semi-twilight, and found that it was already six o'clock in the morning, but the sky outside the window was still dark.
Seeing that Lu Ao was still asleep, Tang Yi got up lightly, and pushed the door quietly to go out.
After washing up, Tang Yi went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.Originally, he wanted to wake Lu Ao up after breakfast was ready, but before Tang Yi was ready, Lu Ao got up by himself.
Sensing movement behind him, Tang Yi turned his head and saw Lu Ao was rubbing his hair, walking towards him.
"I woke up, I was still thinking about you sleeping for a while, I will call you later!" Tang Yi skillfully stirred the porridge in the pot, smelled the mellow and attractive aroma, closed the lid, and turned off the fire.
"I slept well, and I can rest already." Lu Ao had finished washing, and when he walked into the bathroom, he found that the toiletries he had used before were still neatly placed on the shelf.
Tang Yi is a very heart-warming person, here Lu Ao feels as if he is in his own nest, relaxed and casual, feeling very warm.
In particular, when I woke up early in the morning, I saw Tang Yi busy in the kitchen, seeing him bring a steaming breakfast, which immediately warmed up the winter morning.
After eating the breakfast prepared by Tang Yi, Lu Ao was about to leave. It happened that Tang Yi also went to work, so he went downstairs with Lu Ao.
While waiting for the elevator, Tang Yi looked at Lu Ao and asked, "Lu Ao, the Chinese New Year will be over a month away, will your army be on holiday?"
When Tang Yi asked about this, Lu Ao's expression flickered a little, and then he replied very calmly, "We usually don't have holidays, but I should be at home during the Chinese New Year this year."
"Really? That's great!" Tang Yi was very pleasantly surprised. After the surprise, he asked doubtfully, "But, didn't you say that you have no vacation?"
Lu Ao nodded, paused, and said, "I have applied for retirement, and after I officially retire, I will be free."
"What? You are retiring? Why?" Tang Yi was surprised.
"There's no reason, I just don't want to continue!" Lu Ao replied lightly.
Tang Yi nodded after hearing this, and didn't continue to ask. He knew that Lu Ao's choice to retire must be hidden, but he didn't need to know the real situation about Lu Ao.
But no matter what the reason is, as long as it is a choice made by Lu Ao, Tang Yi will agree and support it.However, in the bottom of his heart, Tang Yi would also feel regretful, feeling sorry for Lu Ao.
Downstairs, Lu Ao and Tang Yi said goodbye. After seeing Lu Ao getting into the car, Tang Yi suddenly took two steps forward, looked at Lu Ao from the car window, and asked, "Are you leaving today?"
"I don't know, maybe go back!" Lu Ao thought for a while, not sure.
"What about the next two days, do you have time?" Tang Yi asked again.
"After I go back, I will have a lot of things to deal with, and I may not have time these few days. What's the matter, what's the matter?" Lu Ao raised his eyes, saw Tang Yi's slightly regretful eyes, and asked.
"It's nothing, then if you have time tonight, please call me, and I'll treat you to dinner!" Tang Yi was somewhat disappointed in his heart, but he concealed it well with a smile.
"Okay, then I'm leaving!" Lu Ao nodded, slowly raised the window, and started to leave.
Tang Yi saw Lu Ao leaving, sighed softly, and drove to work as well.The reason why he asked Lu Ao if he was free was because the day after tomorrow was his birthday and he didn't have many friends, so he wanted to invite Lu Ao to have a good time together.
Since Lu Ao won't be free in two days, Tang Yi thought that tonight, if Lu Ao had time, he could have a light meal with Lu Ao in advance.
Because, on the first birthday after reuniting with Lu Ao after six years, he wanted to spend it with Lu Ao.
Lu Ao originally wanted to go home and meet Lu Ziqian and Fu Rongxi first, but after thinking about it, he went directly to the Lu family mansion.
For some things, it is better for him to discuss with General Lu first, and then announce the confirmed news to everyone.
Arriving in front of the gate of the Lu family's house, Lu Ao stopped the car, and as soon as he walked into the gate, he saw General Lu and He Xinran in the yard.
General Lu was stretching his arms and kicking his legs for morning exercises, while He Xinran was pruning the evergreen ornamental trees in the yard.
"Grandpa, grandma, good morning!" Lu Ao raised a smile, called kindly, and walked forward.
"Oh, it's Lu Ao here. This morning, it's really surprising! Come on, come on, let grandma take a good look!" Seeing Lu Ao's surprise, He Xinran dropped the scissors in his hand, eagerly He waved at Lu Ao.
"Hey!" Lu Ao obediently strode forward, letting He Xinran grab his arm and look at him carefully.
He Xinran saw Lu Ao's face was full of joy, his eyes were full of love, and he looked at Lu Ao with such love.
In the usual way, General Lu would be the same. Although he would not be as nasty as He Xinran, he was always full of pride when he saw Lu Ao, his most proud child.
But today, when General Lu saw Lu Ao walking over, his expressionless face suddenly sank, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, and the gloom in his heart became even worse.
Losing his patience to see He Xinran pull Lu Ao to make out, General Lu took a deep breath, calmed down, walked over to Lu Ao and said coldly, "Lu Ao, come in with me!"
"I haven't finished talking to Lu Ao yet!" He Xinran was a little unhappy, looking at General Lu's gloomy face, he couldn't help getting angry: "You old man, you have been sullen since yesterday, and I don't know who provoked you!" You. Today, Lu Ao came back with great difficulty, so it’s fine if you don’t talk well, what kind of evil fire did you throw at Lu Ao.”
"You, what do you know..." General Lu was in a terrible mood, but he couldn't get angry with He Xinran, so he could only stomp his feet in secret annoyance and leave with a brush of his sleeves.
"This old man is really annoying!" He Xinran gave General Lu a blank look, and muttered relentlessly.
"Grandma, don't be angry, how about I help you go back to the house to rest!" Lu Ao said softly, wrapping his arms around He Xinran's shoulder.
"No, I'll just hang around outside, it's fine." Facing Lu Ao, He Xinran's tone immediately changed, soft and kind.
"Okay, then I'll go find grandpa first, and I'll chat with you later." After persuading He Xinran, Lu Ao walked towards the room.
In the living room, Lu Ao did not see General Lu. Hearing from the servant that General Lu had gone to the study, Lu Ao's heart sank and he let out a sigh of relief.
Everyone knows that the most unacceptable place in this house is General Lu's study.Everyone in the Lu family was deeply touched by this, especially his father Ziqian.
How many times has General Lu really lost his temper in the study.Moreover, every matter that requires General Lu to enter the study to discuss is a major event, so the consequences are also very serious.
Because of this, General Lu's study is equivalent to a restricted area. If General Lu insisted on "inviting", no one would be willing to enter.
Outside the study door, Lu Ao felt the oppressive atmosphere, pursed his lips, and knocked on the door with his hand.
"Grandpa, it's me!" Lu Ao's voice was very respectful, which was absolute respect for General Lu.
"Come in!" General Lu's voice was not loud, but crisp and imposing.
Lu Ao opened the door and walked in, and found that General Lu was not sitting at the desk as usual, waiting for those who made mistakes to honestly explain with a stern face.
Instead, he stood alone by the window, looking out of the window, his eyes were a little lonely, and his expression was a little lonely.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry!" Although General Lu still stood up straight and his body was firm, Lu Ao suddenly found that General Lu was really much older.
In particular, the expression on General Lu's face was so lonely.What used to be high-spirited, domineering and proud, has become twilight and heart-dead.
General Lu like this makes people feel sad...
Lu Ao knew that all of this originated from him. He was General Lu's only hope in this life, and he was all of General Lu's expectations.
But now, Lu Ao, who can make General Lu proud, no longer exists, and what he brings to General Lu is heartbreak.
"Tell me, why?" General Lu is the one who knows Lu Ao better than anyone else. He knows everything about Lu Ao. If he had no other choice, Lu Ao would never do this.
"Grandpa..." Lu Ao's nose was a little sore, and his voice was a little hoarse. After a long silence, Lu Ao spoke again: "I did encounter a very bad thing, and it was a very serious thing. Some people, some things, It forced me to leave the army."
"Is this what you are capable of? Could it be that you can only be led by the other party, and can't find a way to solve it completely? Lu Ao, you are not a cowardly person!" This is General Lu For sure, Lu Ao knows the toughness in his bones.
"Grandpa, this matter is not trivial, and it involves a lot. I don't want innocent people to sacrifice because of me, and I don't want you to be in danger, and I don't want Rongbang to be in danger. That's why I want to withdraw completely from the army. With no worries, I can let go and do it.”
"..." When Lu Ao said this, General Lu couldn't help frowning, and after a long time, he sighed and shook his head, and said helplessly: "It seems that in my life, I really can't see my descendants of the Lu family. Serve the country with all your strength in the army!"
"I'm sorry, Grandpa, I know this matter hurts your heart, but I really have no choice!" At this time, Lu Ao had to admit his powerlessness. He had always thought that he was strong enough, but now seeing Coming is not enough.
"Don't talk about it! Lu Ao, if you want me to promise you to retire, then you can do it exactly, and explain these things to me clearly!" General Lu can tolerate Lu Ao when he has no choice. However, he must know the real reason of the matter, which is his bottom line.
"Okay..." After hesitating for a while, Lu Ao nodded solemnly, and asked General Lu to sit down on the chair, and then told General Lu everything.
In winter, the day came later, Tang Yi looked at the time in the semi-twilight, and found that it was already six o'clock in the morning, but the sky outside the window was still dark.
Seeing that Lu Ao was still asleep, Tang Yi got up lightly, and pushed the door quietly to go out.
