After Mingzhu finished speaking, she felt depressed.
It's not that she is cruel, but that she has been through too much.
Lu Qian gave her hope again and again, but disappointed her again and again, and she dared not love again.
So she would rather accept mediocrity.
Lu Qian looked at the front of the car calmly. He felt sick to his stomach before eating lunch. But he tried his best to endure it and did not want to show weakness in front of her.
After a long while he said: "I'll take you back to the set!"
Mingzhu shook her head: "I drove here."
After she finished speaking, she went to open the car door.
Lu Qian suddenly held her down: "Don't leave!"
Mingzhu turned her head and looked into his deep eyes, very calm. If others could not see that he used so much strength to restrain her.
After a long confrontation, Mingzhu whispered: "Let go!"
Lu Qian gently let go of his hand.
She got out of the car quickly, as if someone was chasing her.
The car door closed and Lu Qian gently covered his abdomen. He sat quietly for a while and then took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it with water.
He returned to the company when he felt more comfortable.
Secretary Liu noticed that he was in a bad mood and did not dare to provoke him. He only came over before leaving get off work and said, "It's time to pick up little Shuoshuo. Go pick him up. The little guy will be happy."
Lu Qian felt better when he mentioned his son.
He took Shuoshuo back.
The little guy jumped out of his father's car with a small schoolbag on his back. Mrs. Lu was already waiting for him.
"I'm all sweaty! Go wash up quickly."
"Grandma made small ice creams by herself, one bite at a time."
…
Little Lu Shuo's face was slightly red, she washed her face and sat on a small chair, eating ice obediently.
The old lady fanned him to cool off.
She glanced at her son with sharp eyes.
Something's wrong with him!
Lu Qian took off his coat and threw it on the sofa without wanting to move.
The old lady put her hand to her ear and imitated Lu Qian's tone and said: "Oh, someone called home last night and said, old lady, I won't be home today... Oh, I have to take care of Mingzhu! Little girl drinks wine
I don’t have any restraint, I’m afraid I’ll make you unhappy by coming here!”
Little Lu Shuo almost got stuck in his throat when he took a mouthful of ice cream.
Secretary Liu came in and burst into laughter!
The old lady looked at her son and sneered: "Look at you, you are such a bear! Is it difficult to chase your wife like you did when you got those heavenly things? You need to use your brain to chase the pearl. I think you only use your mouth to chase the pearl! Not at all.
I love the little girl, and I don’t even think about how old you are, and how old she is!"
In the past, Lu Qian would always laugh at himself.
But today he was very irritable and went upstairs to the study without saying a word.
The old lady watched eagerly.
Secretary Liu came closer and whispered: "I kicked the iron plate! They ignored him!"
"oh!"
The old lady gave a long sigh, and then nodded: "Ignore him! This is normal, he thought he was a flower! He is the only one who picks on others, and others can't pick on him!?"
Xiao Lu Shuo couldn't help but nod.
The old lady was cruel, but she still brought a bowl of wontons over at night.
Lu Qian was in the study, bored.
The old lady pushed the door open and went in, placed the wontons in front of him and said softly: "Pick up some and eat some! I see you have no intention of eating all day!"
Lu Qian called out "Mom".
The old lady knew that he was depressed, so she patted his hand and said, "She cares about you! But she also blames you!"
Lu Qian smiled bitterly: "I know!"
The old lady pointed to the bowl of wontons and said: "It's the same food, some people like to put coriander, and some don't! It's the same with relationships. If you do this and she wants to do that, we won't be able to get along! It's like when you went abroad for medical treatment.
Sick, you are afraid of hurting her and push her away, how do you know that this is what she wants, how do you know that she is not strong enough!"
"Lu Qian, you are strong but too selfish!"
Lu Qian listened quietly and slowly ate his wontons.
He only ate half of it.
The old lady hit him and scolded him with a smile: "Hurry up and apologize to me. If you have a conflict with her, she won't even come to see me."
Lu Qian touched a mint candy.
After a long time, I smiled faintly...
When he went to bed at night, he sent a WeChat message to Mingzhu, and the content was very generous.
I wish her a successful blind date.
I also apologized for the gangster thing that night!
Mingzhu ignored him!
Lu Qian looked at the content and thought it was quite shameless, so he put down his phone.
Just as he was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, a little person came in from the door, quietly got under the quilt from the end of the bed, and finally nestled in his arms.
Lu Qian reached out and touched it.
It's Xiao Shuoshuo.
He asked in a low voice: "Want to sleep with daddy?"
Xiao Shuoshuo refused to speak, and put her two little hands around Lu Qian's waist, still stroking there.
Lu Qian stopped talking and patted his son.
After a long time, he thought Shuoshuo fell asleep, but the little guy suddenly said: "Mom doesn't like those uncles."
Lu Qian's voice was hoarse: "I know!"
Little Shuoshuo felt relieved and slept comfortably next to her uncle and grandpa.
Lu Qian looked at his son under the faint moonlight, missing Lu You a little and missing his child's mother.
But he is still angry!
He didn't take the initiative to look for her later. He only learned from Shuoshuo that the person he dated last time was gay again.
Lu Qian's mood improved slightly.
On this day, Secretary Zhang knocked on the door and came in. He said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, Director Wang is here to see you!"
Director Wang?
Lu Qian remembered that he was the director of Mingzhu's drama, and he thought he wanted to invest in it.
He is willing to give, but he also wants to see the pearl.
He returned Director Wang's call and said politely: "I really shouldn't bother you with this little thing! Let's ask Mingzhu to bring the check over tomorrow! ... Yes, I see her often!"
…
After hanging up the phone, his mood completely improved.
In the evening, Mingzhu called.
She asked him: "Lu Qian, what do you mean?"
Lu Qian didn't flirt with her. He said directly: "Come and have dinner with me, and I'll bring you the check!"
The pearl froze for a moment.
She lowered her voice: "If I don't accompany you, you will still be in trouble, right?"
"Yes!" Lu Qian admitted directly.
He thought she would be angry and have a little temper, but he didn't expect that she readily agreed.
"Okay, I'll have this meal with Mr. Lu!"
She said the word "Mr. Lu" in an extremely mocking way.
How could Lu Qian not hear it? But he didn't care. The main reason was that he really missed her.
He wanted to pick her up, but Mingzhu said he would drive.
The last appointment was at the home-cooked restaurant they often went to, in the same private room.
Lu Qian arrived first, and he ordered seven or eight dishes, all of which were Mingzhu's favorites.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, Mingzhu came over.
She brought her assistant, but Lu Qian sent her away with a look.
Mingzhu looked at the closed door and said nothing. She sat down next to Lu Qian and took some chopsticks to eat. She said softly: "I'm a little hungry!"
It's 7pm now and she hasn't had lunch yet.
Lu Qian gave her some food.
It was rare for them to be quiet like this, and the atmosphere was considered good.
Mingzhu didn't say much.
Lu Qian ate little. He looked at her profile and asked, knowingly: "Where is the new boyfriend?"
Mingzhu's tone was very calm: "It's not suitable! There's no place for it."
Lu Qian quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
He poured her tea again. It was a rare snow-capped green tea. Mingzhu didn't usually drink tea, but she could drink this.
Mingzhu did not refuse his kindness.
But after she finished eating and drinking, she got straight to the point: "Mr. Lu, this meal is over. Is it time for the investment to be in place?"
Lu Qian didn't care about her.
He put the written check in her hand, and Mingzhu opened it and saw that it was 80 million, a penny less.
She thanked her and left.
Lu Qian grabbed her hand.
Under the crystal lamp, he stared into her eyes and asked her seriously for the first time: "Mingzhu, how long are you going to vent your anger on me?"
Mingzhu's lips trembled slightly.
She didn't answer because she didn't know how to answer.
Lu Qian gently let go of her.
He was very irritable and wanted to smoke a cigarette.
Finally, he said calmly: "Mingzhu, I know I'm sorry for you! I also know you are still blaming me!... I have worked hard to survive these past few years for you and the children. No matter how much neglect I receive from you, I deserve it."
, but Mingzhu, I’m not young anymore! I’m not young anymore! The time I can take care of you and your children is only a few years, and if I continue to work hard, I’m afraid it’ll be too late.”
He looked at her and saw her in her prime!
She never knew that he didn't dare to grow old at all. He was a man who cared very much about his appearance, for fear of being judged by others when standing next to her, for fear that she would be wronged!
It's not that he doesn't want to pursue her, it's just that time waits for no one.
Mingzhu was depressed after hearing this.
At this moment, she wanted to say forgiveness to him, and wanted to hold his hand and say she didn't blame him anymore!
But she finally failed to do it.
When she left, she cried.
What she didn't know was that Lu Qian also cried...
It's hard to tell who is right and who is wrong between them, maybe it was wrong from the beginning.
…
From that day on, Lu Qian seemed to have given up.
He didn't bother her again.
Occasionally, he would hear news about her, finals, advertisements, and blind dates.
Their intersection is children.
Occasionally we would meet each other at Huo Zhai, but they would just nod and at most just talk about the children.
Lu Qian himself didn't know if he had given up.
He wanted to give her happiness, but she didn't want it.
His approach caused her pain again!
He gradually moved away from her life, but he invested in almost all of Director Wang's films.
In summer, Lu Qian's health improved a lot.
Mr. Yi asked him to hang out at the club. In those two years, Mr. Yi also flew to Switzerland to visit him two or three times, so the relationship remained very good.
Lu Qian was playing cards with them in the box.
Mr. Yi forbids people from smoking. He touched the sign and said with a smile: "I see that Lu Qian's energy is much better. It seems that quitting smoking is still effective for women!"
Lu Qian glanced at him and cursed the quintessence of the nation.
Mr. Yi just laughed.
That's how men are together, they don't have any taboos when talking.
In the middle of the trip, Mr. Yi got addicted to cigarettes and ran out to smoke.
What a coincidence, Mingzhu was also at this club when she was having a social event.
She was dressed beautifully today, a soft pink dress with some small pearls.
Her long black hair spreads around her waist.
Seen from behind, it's really beautiful.
Mr. Yi was flirtatious and wanted to go up and talk to him, but when he turned around he realized it was from Lu Qian's family!
Mr. Yi reacted quickly and immediately said with a smile: "What a coincidence, brother and sister! Several friends are inside, let's go say hello!"
Mingzhu didn't think much about it.
She never thought that Lu Qian would be there, so she agreed out of sympathy.
Mr. Yi is good at coaxing people and said a lot of funny things along the way.
Mingzhu pursed her lips slightly.
In order to surprise her and make her happy, Mr. Yi even tricked her when opening the door: "Hey, look who's inside, is it the Uncle Lu you've been thinking about day and night?"
Mingzhu wants to make love with him.
But at this time, if she runs away again, she will be petty and petty.
The copper flower door slowly opened in front of you.
There was a lot of excitement inside, and Lu Qian was playing cards.
Miss Hu was wearing soft clothes, leaning against his arm and whispering softly.
Lu Qian smiled, quite charming!
Mingzhu took one look and turned around and left.
Mr. Yi became anxious and shouted quickly: "Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Hey Mingzhu, this must be a misunderstanding. Your Uncle Lu is now a man of few desires. There is not even a female mosquito around him! He is powerless and can't do anything!"
It was so loud that everyone heard it!
The pearl moves quickly.
She thought to herself that Lu Qian, a romantic old man, could play with whoever he wanted.
What does it have to do with her!
Don’t taint her eyes!
Although she shouldn't have cared about it, her eyes still turned red unconsciously.
That man had been chasing her relentlessly some time ago. After dragging her to the bed, he accused her of not having a blind date.
What is he doing!
She only has blind dates, while he has skin-to-skin kisses.
Over there, Lu Qian threw down his cards and chased away. Mr. Yi blushed and explained, "I'm sorry, Lu Qian. I did bad things with good intentions, but I didn't know that Miss Hu got naughty temporarily."
Lu Qian didn't care about him, he just chased people away.
Miss Hu's face turned pale and red.
They were used to making trouble together, so they didn't take it seriously.
She has nothing to do with Lu Qian.
But when Mingzhu saw it, she must have misunderstood, so she decided to go back and help Lu Qian explain.
Lu Qian caught up with Mingzhu at the door.
She was about to open the car door when her arm was grabbed by Lu Qian.
With a little effort, she fell into his arms.
Mingzhu refused and lightly hit his heart: "Let me go! Lu Qian, let me go!"
Lu Qian refused to let go.
He used his strength to trap her in his arms.
He wanted to look into her eyes, but Mingzhu turned her face away in embarrassment, her voice lowered: "Don't embarrass yourself here, okay? Let me go!"
Lu Qian trapped her with one hand and gently pinched her chin with the other.
He forced her to look at him.
His voice was low and hoarse: "Don't you think about me? Aren't you done with me? Why did you cry when you saw me getting close to other women? Huo Mingzhu, don't you care?"
"Stop irritating me! I think it's dirtying my eyes."
She turned her face away in embarrassment.
But tears still fell from the corners of my eyes.
That scene seemed familiar and reminded her of the past.
Mingzhu couldn't get away from him, and she was unwilling to give in. The two were entangled at the door.
She is considered a celebrity after all.
Finally, she suppressed her emotions and said: "Okay! We don't have to blame each other, let me go! You go in and continue playing, your friends are still waiting for you!"
Lu Qian asked her: "Are you telling the truth?"
She nodded.
He added: "But Miss Hu is married! She is not my confidante!"
Mingzhu was even more embarrassed, her voice broken: "Your affairs have nothing to do with me!"
She pushed him away hard and got on the car regardless.
Lu Qian was afraid that something would happen to him.
He knocked on the car window gently and said in a low voice: "Drive carefully! I will explain it another day!"
Mingzhu stepped on the accelerator.
Mr. Yi came out and took a mouthful of black smoke.
He wiped his lips and said, "After all these years, my temper is still so hot! Lu Qian, are all young girls so energetic?"
As he spoke, he smiled ambiguously.
Lu Qian glanced at him and he took out a lighter from his pocket.
Play with it gently.
After a long time, he whispered: "If you like her, you can't like anyone else."
Mr. Yi said sarcastically: "I didn't expect you to be a lover!"
In the night, Lu Qian called Wen Man: "Mingzhu may go to your place soon, please help me comfort her! Well, I made her unhappy."
