Chapter 11: 11

Chapter 11: One Last Look

Chang Qing left the Lu family with nothing but a cell phone.

Fortunately, he still had some money in his pocket, and his phone was bound to the card Lu Xuan gave him, so he wouldn’t be reduced to homelessness.

Chang Qing checked into a hotel and lay on the bed with his eyes open.

He was Lu Xuan’s nominal wife. Even so, he couldn’t just walk away.

Yes, he couldn’t go. Chang Qing got up from the bed and stumbled to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water.

He looked up at himself in the mirror. His face was pale and there was a cut on his lip. He didn’t remember when he bit it, but he didn’t seem to feel the pain at the time.

Chang Qing wiped the beads of water from his face, took a deep breath, and slowly let it out again.

It was so easy to say that. But where did he still have the face to see Lu Zheng and the others?

Chang Qing returned to his room and sat on the floor and leaned against the bed, so numb and depressed that he couldn’t even move a finger.

Just then, the cell phone he’d left on the bed rang. Someone was calling.

Chang Qing thought it was Lu Zheng. He reached out and took the phone, just glancing at it. His fingers clenched suddenly. It was Qin Lang.

How dare he call him?

Chang Qing answered the phone.

On the other side came a sunny voice, as if the person was always laughing, “Qing Qing, my drama is finished. Now I have a lot of time to spend with you. Are you free now?”

Chang Qing inhaled deeply. His throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn’t say anything.

The other side seemed to notice the abnormality on Chang Qing’s side, and he paused, “Qing Qing?”

Chang Qing suddenly said, “Don’t call me Qing Qing.”

“…What’s the matter? Are you in a bad mood? Where are you now? I’ll come to see you!” The tone on the other side became worried and anxious.

Chang Qing wanted to laugh, but he also wanted to cry. He spoke with gritted  teeth. “Are you very happy now?”

“Qing Qing… What do you mean? How could I be happy if you’re not happy? Where are you now? You don’t seem to be in good shape right now. Shall I come and see you?”

When Chang Qing heard him say this, he slowly calmed down.

“Qin Lang, let’s never meet again. I have no intention of supporting you, so don’t ever call me again.”

Chang Qing spoke quickly and hung up without listening to Qin Lang’s response.

For a person like Qin Lang, it was the fastest and best way to get rid of the relationship directly. He didn’t have the ability to fight Qin Lang now. He may even be killed by him.

Qin Lang called him a few more times, but Chang Qing hung up on him. After he hung up on him a few times, Qin Lang finally stopped calling him.

For the next few days, Lu Zheng didn’t contact him, and no one looked for him. He spent a few days in the hotel like a walking corpse.

Chang Qing has been paying attention to the news of the Lu Group in the financial section.

The news of Lu Xuan’s death wasn’t widely reported by the media. It only vaguely said that the person in charge had changed, how many points the stock market had fallen, etc. However, in the society pages of the news it was reported that Wu, the dismissed driver, had a grudge against his master and had waited for an opportunity to kill him…..

The dismissed driver Wu… Chang Qing’s heart shrank into a ball, and the air became stagnant.1

Was it really his fault? If he hadn’t asked Lu Xuan to replace Wu Junyong, Lu Xuan wouldn’t have had an accident earlier.

He clearly knew from the beginning that Qin Lang was the villain and that he was the one who killed Lu Xuan. He had failed to prevent Lu Xuan’s death.

He couldn’t do anything. Instead, he made Lu Xuan die earlier.

It was all his fault.

Chang Qing was so overwhelmed with remorse and self-blame that he couldn’t hold his head up. It was as if an invisible hand had been holding his throat tightly, making it difficult for him to even breathe.

He wanted to call Lu Zheng, but after entering the number, he didn’t continue.

After a long time, he remembered that there was still Mother Zhang.

He can also call Mother Zhang.

Chang Qing found Mother Zhang’s phone number, took a deep breath, and dialed it.

Soon, Mother Zhang answered the phone, “Hello?”

Chang Qing’s voice was complicated,  “Mother Zhang, how are things at home now? “

Mother Zhang was silent for a while, then said, “Not very good.”

Her tone was also very depressed, “Mr. Lu passed away, and the funeral will be held the day after tomorrow. Xiao Chang, will you come over?”

Chang Qing didn’t speak. He wanted to go, but would Lu Zheng and the others let him go?

Mother Zhang said: “Mr. Lu is gone. Those people can’t wait for our family to be in trouble and they’ve been spreading rumors. A-Zheng hasn’t been home recently, and Xiao Hua feels wronged and refuses to go to school. Xiao Chang, listen to me. You, the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, have to go home and stop being self-willed, okay?”

Chang Qing was silent, and after a while, he said, “Is this what Lu Zheng wants?”

Mother Zhang said, “What Ah-Zheng wants? When he came back, he asked me why you weren’t there… You don’t think Ah-Zheng is going to drive you away, right? How would he dare? You’re his sister-in-law, and no matter how much he doesn’t like you, he can’t drive you away.” After a pause, she said in disbelief, “Is that why you didn’t go home?

“No…” Chang Qing’s voice choked up, “It’s my fault.”

Chang Qing didn’t have the psychological condition of a mature man, nor was he the kind of person who could hide everything in his heart. He has been depressed for too long these days. Maybe the time was right, or maybe it was Mother Zhang’s identity as an elder, but he couldn’t help but confide in her.

“It’s my fault, if I hadn’t asked him to change drivers and go out on a date with me, nothing would have happened…”

It’s said that men don’t shed tears unless they’re deeply grieved. Chang Qing’s voice had a thick nasally sound and his tears couldn’t help but flow out.

Upon hearing his words of remorse, Mother Zhang sighed and said, “It’s not your fault. Who would have thought that Wu Junyong would be like this? He was so honest in the past, and Mr. Lu was very good to him. Who would have thought that he was such a person?”

“If anything, it’s Wu Junyong’s fault. How could you be wrong? There’s no need to take what Ah-Shi said to heart. The Lu family is your home. Where can you go if you don’t come back?”

“Come back, Ah-Zheng is sensible. He won’t blame you. The funeral will be held the day after tomorrow. You, the Lu family’s daughter-in-law, have gone down the open route. If you don’t come back, you’ll be giving those who are laughing at us a free laugh.”

Chang Qing sniffed, “…Is it okay?”

Mother Zhang said, “What’s wrong? This is your home. It’s only natural that you come back. Come back.”

After a long time, Chang Qing finally gave an “uh-huh” sound.

Mother Zhang comforted him for a while, then hung up the phone after he had calmed down.

“Did he promise to come back?” Lu Zheng asked.

Mother Zhang said, “He’ll come back. I spoke to him. He’ll come back, he’s sensible.”

Lu Zheng didn’t speak.

Recently, he had very little time to sleep, and was haunted by various things. His face was very unsightly and his whole body was covered with low pressure. His originally black eyes were now bloodshot and there was a strong and repressed emotion.

Mother Zhang couldn’t help saying, “Chang Qing cried with me, saying it was his fault…. Ah-Zheng, is that what you think? “

Lu Zheng hesitated for a moment before saying, “No.”

Mother Zhang said, “Don’t blame him. He and your elder brother happily went out on a date and even left the driver behind. He is the saddest when it comes to such a thing. If you blame him, he really…”

Lu Zheng interrupted her and said heavily, “I don’t blame him.”

It wasn’t that he couldn’t tell the difference between black and white. When he told Chang Qing to leave at the hospital, he only meant for him not to stay there. Lu Shi was irrational, and he went crazy when he saw Chang Qing, and the quarrel broke his heart.

He had tried to control it as much as possible. He had no intention of driving him away. He never did.

Just like what Mother Zhang had said, what had he done wrong? He had happily gone out on a date with his older brother. He still remembered the smiling face before going out. Would he not be in pain when something like this happened? Wouldn’t it be difficult to bear?

He still spoke to Chang Qing in that tone. His face at that time should have been very ugly. He must have been frightened.

Lu Zheng wiped his face wearily, and his scarlet eyes closed tightly. “You ask him to come back as soon as possible. Elder brother will be cremated tomorrow, let him come and see him one last time.”

Mother Zhang didn’t speak. After a while, she asked, “What are you going to do with Wu Junyong? The police said that he had an inherited genetic mental problem, and it was unlikely that he would be sentenced.”

“What to do?” Lu Zheng sneered, almost muttering to himself, in a tone full of cruelty, “I want him to die!”

Mother Zhang wasn’t frightened by his tone. Although she was only the nanny aunt of the Lu family, she was already in the Lu family when Lu Chenghui and his wife were still there. She knew the temperament of the Lu children very well.

She also heard a little about what Lu Zheng had done in the Lu’s group these days. He took over Lu Xuan’s responsibility and became the president of the Lu group. Because of Lu Xuan’s death, Lu Zheng became suspicious of the shareholders. He sat down one by one with all the shareholders who opposed Lu Xuan before he died, and took back their shares and drove them out of the Lu group.

It was really kind of crazy.

Mother Zhang understood that Lu Zheng at this time was just like a mad dog who would bite anyone.

After Lu Xuan’s accident, some media reported it with more eye-catching and public opinion-oriented headlines. As soon as the article was posted online, it was known by Lu Zheng … The results after that can be guessed. Those media have stopped operating now.

As she’d told Chang Qing, there were a lot of people waiting to laugh at them. Now even if there were people watching their Lu family jokes, they have no time to hide, for fear of angering Lu Zheng.

Thinking of this, Mother Zhang sighed. She patted her knee, stood up and asked, “Ah-Zheng, what do you want to eat?  I’ll make it for you.”

Lu Zheng closed his eyes and ignored her.

Mother Zhang wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back.

Her eyes were red too. What has this family become like now? She is too old to stand such things anymore.

She shook her head, said nothing, turned and went to the kitchen.

The author has something to say: I have a second update today! That’s it for the plot qaq. I can only write it more carefully. The dead have passed away. Big brother has died. Although it is paving the way for the gong and shou. However, it won’t be that easy. Thank you for the little angel who voted for the overlord or irrigated the nutrient solution for me~
