As Lu Xingzhi spoke these words, there was a hint of coquettishness.
"You’re so bad, I know exactly why, you’ve long wanted to accompany Mom. That’s why, eight years ago, you risked your life to save those people. But why did you leave just like that? How could you be at ease leaving ?"
Lu Xingzhi had actually been holding these words in for a long ti, suppressing them in her heart, never expressing them before.
Back then, her grandparents were still alive. She didn’t want them worrying, even her crying was controlled.
Later, when all her relatives passed away, she restrained her tears even more.
Because, from then onward, she had to be strong. She was alone, no one would care for her fragility, nor would she need any sympathy.
"You’ve gone to find those you wanted to see, but you’ve left behind your most precious Qi Qi." Saying this, Lu Xingzhi couldn’t help but shed tears.
She casually wiped them away, "Dad, although you promised to watch grow up, to see stand on a big stage, to see marry and have children. Although you didn’t fulfill it.
But I’m now proud to tell you! I’m about to have my own concert. Look, I’ve brought the ticket for you. It’s the best seat!
Dad, I miss you so much. I brought Grandpa his favorite Zhuyeqing liquor, Grandma her favorite tea, Mom her favorite osmanthus cake, and I haven’t forgotten your favorite wine.
Mom is the best, her favorites are the cheapest, easiest to manage. You and Grandpa and Grandma’s are all costly! But now I have money to buy them for you! Qi Qi can earn lots of money now, but..."
Lu Xingzhi blinked, deciding not to continue.
The words, ’Why are none of you here anymore?’ were stuck in her throat.
"Alright. Dad, Mom, I’m now going to introduce my fiancé to you, watch closely! His na is Huo Jincheng, and he’s very, very good to . He’s already taking care of in your place, so rest assured! I’ll live well from now on."
Lu Xingzhi said no more, just knelt for a long ti before finally rising.
Huo Jincheng handed her a tissue to wipe away her tears, "Zhi Zhi, don’t cry."
"I’m happy." Lu Xingzhi wiped away her own tears, "You should quickly bow to your future in-laws!"
"Alright!"
Without hesitation, Huo Jincheng knelt down.
"Mom and Dad, please allow to call you this. Because, I am determined to marry your daughter. I’m simply doing this in advance, please entrust her to with peace of mind. I’d rather let down the world than her."
After paying tribute to the four relatives, Lu Xingzhi led Huo Jincheng away.
On the way back, Lu Xingzhi was visibly downcast.
Huo Jincheng said nothing; he knew that Lu Xingzhi needed to calm down on her own for a while now.
But once back ho, Huo Jincheng gave Lu Xingzhi a hug.
Without any emotions involved, he simply conveyed to her, "With him by her side, she should feel at ease."
"Uncle, I’m okay." Lu Xingzhi softly smiled, "It’s all in the past, maybe my emotions are just off today."
"Zhi Zhi, with , you don’t need to hold back anything. We are not only lovers, but will be the closest of people." Huo Jincheng embraced her, "You don’t have to keep everything to yourself, you need to learn to rely on ."
