"Unexpectedly, you’re Bertrand’s student, and you speak French so well." Huo Jincheng gazed at her deeply and added a sentence.
"You an to say you didn’t know my grandmother is half French? I learned French from her. As for the teacher, it’s because when I was twelve, I went to France with my dad. Honestly, I’m not sure if the teacher even rembers ."
Lu Xingzhi turned her head to look at him, "I didn’t an to hide it from you, it’s just that I never specifically ntioned it. Besides, you never asked ."
"Got it." Huo Jincheng rubbed her head, realizing that his investigation wasn’t complete, and he didn’t intend to dig deep into her affairs initially.
Huo Jincheng suddenly discovered that although Lu Xingzhi’s family lived in the countryside, they were quite mysterious.
His little darling always gave him surprises!
That’s fine too, he didn’t want to know everything all at once; slowly discovering things might be more interesting.
"Are you angry?" Lu Xingzhi held his hand, "If there’s anything you want to know, I’ll tell you."
"No, how could I be angry with you?" Huo Jincheng let her lean on his shoulder. "I already knew your English was excellent, but I didn’t expect your French to be just as good. It’s like speaking in your native language."
"English was taught by my dad. My dad is amazing. My grandmother and grandfather are too." Talking about her family, Lu Xingzhi’s face lit up with excitent, mixed with reminiscence and happiness.
"Now there are many people who praise my beauty. They haven’t seen my grandmother. My grandmother was truly stunning, with the gracefulness of a Jiangnan lady and the unique romanticism of the French. She taught many things, but unfortunately..."
"Zhi Zhi, I really wish I could have t you sooner. At the most appropriate ti, to et you and all your family." Huo Jincheng always felt guilty for not finding her earlier.
"I don’t bla you. Actually, I know if it weren’t for , for my grandparents being there, my dad might not have held out. He might have gone to see my mom long ago. He often looked at my mom’s photo and talked to it alone. In the other world, he must have reunited with mom, and they must be happy."
It was rare for Lu Xingzhi to say so much; usually, she wouldn’t speak if she didn’t have to.
"Don’t say anymore, Zhi Zhi, you have now, I will take good care of you." Huo Jincheng was heartbroken, so much so that he felt helpless.
All he could do was hold her tightly, giving her warmth.
"Don’t think I am pitiful. I am truly not pitiful. Even though I never t my mom, before she left, she wrote a diary. From when she was pregnant with until my birth, she recorded all the little things during her ti alive."
Lu Xingzhi raised her head, her eyes tenderly moist, smiling at Huo Jincheng.
"Mom also left twenty letters; I open one every year on my birthday. This is all her love for , I didn’t grow up in an environnt without love. I just lost them too soon."
Lu Xingzhi never felt that her life was bad, even living alone in recent years, she always strived to live better.
Facing everything with optimism, because she still carried the imnse love from her family on her shoulders.
"Zhi Zhi, I won’t leave you, even in old age, I won’t leave before you. I will never let you face the world alone."
