Song Ci acpanied Lu Gan quietly.
That night, Lu Gan felt a massive heartache. The festive season did not help. Everything was sad and bitter.
…
Lu Suo brought Song Yujin to his old room.
“This is my old room.”
!!
“Oh.”
Lu Suo was not happy either. He missed his parents. In a low voice, he said, “My parents’ room is right next to mine.”
Song Yujin reached out to pat Lu Suo’s head.
“We can’t celebrate Chinese New Year together anymore…”
Song Yujin patted Lu Suo’s head again, forting him.
Lu Suo stayed silent. After a long time, he turned around and hugged Song Yujin.
“I’m very sad. Hug me.”
Song Yujin hugged Lu Suo back. He hoped that Lu Suo’s parents’ souls were at peace.
Suddenly, Song Yujin heard footsteps. They did not belong to Song Ci. He let go of Lu Suo and looked at the door vigilantly.
It was Lu Hongyong. Song Yujn being in Lu Suo’s room surprised him. However, he did not show it.
In Lu Hongyong’s hand, there was a strawberry cake.
“Little Suo, look at what I’ve got for you. It’s your favorite.”
Lu Suo had a sweet tooth and the strawberry cake looked really tasty.
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
Lu Hongyong smiled
“You’re wele. There’s more in my bedroom. e.”
Lu Suo pulled Song Yujin’s hand.
“My little uncle will be ing too.”
“Sure.”
“I’ll go and inform my dad.”
“No need. I’ve already told him.”
Lu Suo did not suspect anything. Along with Song Yujin, they followed Lu Hongyong.
There was a study room connected to Lu Hongyong’s bedroom.
When they arrived, Lu Hongyong left Song Yujin in the bedroom and took Lu Suo to the study room.
Before leaving, Lu Hongyong gave Song Yujin a strawberry cake and said, “Yujin, please wait here for a moment. I’m going to talk with Little Suo.”
Song Yujin nodded.
Lu Suo was a little confused. Was it something that Song Yujin could not hear? Why did they have to be separated?
In the study room, there were various desserts.
“Little Suo, I’ve prepared all of this for you.”
Lu Suo sat across from Lu Hongyong.
‘Song Yujin only got one… I’ll eat half and leave the rest for him.’
With that thought in mind, Lu Suo picked up a cream puff and began eating.
Lu Hongyong had even prepared some yogurt.
Lu Suo was puzzled, but he did not say anything and kept eating.
In a loving tone, Lu Hongyong said, “Little Suo, you haven’t visited me in a long time.”
“I’m busy with school.”
“I know, but I’ve really missed you.
“Oh.”
“Little Suo, I’m living in this big house all by myself. It gets lonely.”
Lu Hongyong looked at Lu Suo with a sad expression.
“I’ll visit you more often in the future.”
“Little Suo, don’t go back tomorrow. Stay here for a few more days.”
“No! I want to be with my dad.”
Lu Suo shook his head decisively.
“Little Suo, you only care about your father?”
Lu Suo said with a smile, “I care about you too, grandpa.”
“Then stay here for a few more days.”
Lu Hongyong handed Lu Suo a small cake.
Lu Suo said innocently, “But my father is injured. He needs someone to care for him.”
Lu Hongyong was silent for a moment. Then, he said, “Your father is married. His wife will do it.”
Upon hearing that, Lu Suo was stunned.
Lu Hongyong continued, “He’s only your adoptive father. Sooner or later, he’ll have his own children. You won’t be the one he loves most.”
