In the end, Xia Zimu didn't hold back, and was amused.

She raised her hand and pinched Lu Jinghao's face, "I never force you to say what you don't want to say. You choose this way to lie to me because you don't trust me.

"If you tell me directly that your family members treated you badly before, maybe I will follow you and scold them behind your back."

Lu Jinghao didn't tell her about the Lu family, so she didn't delve into whether the relationship between Lu Jinghao and his family was good or bad.

It wasn't until she saw this family today that she connected Lu Jinghao's wandering experience with their indifference.

She thought his family didn't help him because they couldn't find him.

Now it seems that the family is very likely to know that he is not doing well, but turn a blind eye.

Thinking of this, Xia Zimu suddenly regretted it. When Lu Qingjue spoke ill of Lu Jinghao to her today, why didn't she give him two delicious big-eared melon seeds?

Just as she was distracted, she heard the person holding her laugh in a low voice, assuring her: "It won't happen next time."

With that said, he hugged her and continued to walk forward.

Xia Zimu raised his head and asked him, "Where are you going?"

"Don't you want to sleep on the sofa?"

Xia Zimu: "Don't sleep, thank you."

Lu Jinghao continued: "There is also a carpet on the other side of the sofa. It is more comfortable for you to support the sofa than the bed."

Xia Zimu immediately realized what he was talking about, and tried to find an excuse to stop him: "My hair is not dry yet."

Lu Jinghao raised his eyebrows, "Just do it?"

Xia Zimu: "..."

Irregular stuff.

The two of them were tired all day today, and Lu Jinghao actually just teased her, not wanting to make a real fuss.

He put her back on the ground and continued to dry her hair.

Xia Zimu leaned lazily on his leg, sniffing the faint scent of medicine on his body, like a lazy cat.

She stretched out her hand to poke his leg, "Since you have a bad relationship with your family, do you still need to discuss our marriage with them?"

She came here this time mainly because she wanted to hang out with the Lu family, and when she found a chance, she would tell them about her marriage with Lu Jinghao, and pick a date together by the way.

But in the current situation, she didn't want to communicate with the Lu family at all.

"I can do it. If you don't want to say it, you can leave them alone."

He has lived alone for so many years, and his family relationship with the Lu family has long since faded to nothing.

If he didn't want to give Xia Zimu a complete wedding, he didn't even want to invite these people from the Lu family to participate.

After all, Yu Fanghua and Lu Jiannan are Lu Jinghao's biological parents, it would be unreasonable for them not to discuss their marriage.

Xia Zimu deliberated for a while, but didn't come to a conclusion yet, so he said, "I still have a few days left for my vacation, so let's investigate first and then make a decision."

Judging from the situation of contact today, although Yu Fanghua is biased, he is still aware of current affairs.

Lu Jiannan didn't talk much, so he needed to investigate further.

Only that Lu Qingjue, no matter what she said, it was impossible for him to attend their wedding.

This person is a time bomb, and it will be troublesome if it blows up at the wedding.

Lu Jinghao followed her wishes, Xia Zimu continued to ask: "Lu Qingjue told me today that his legs became like this because of you, is it true?"

Hearing this, Lu Jinghao narrowed his dark eyes dangerously, "Is this what he told you today?"

"Correct."

Lu Jinghao didn't really want to mention this, but Xia Zimu asked, and he still gave the answer: "It is indeed because of me that he became like this."

Xia Zimu asked: "Can you tell me the reason?"

"I do not want to say."

It was rare for Lu Jinghao to reject Xia Zimu's request so bluntly and resolutely. It can be seen that he resisted this matter.

She raised her head, a few strands of hair were hanging down by the soft warm wind, covering half of her face.

"Has he ever done something bad to you before?"

He pulled up the hair that covered her cheeks, brushed it aside, exposing her palm-sized face, and said softly: "No, it's just trivial things."

Xia Zimu knew that he was always used to downplaying some serious things.

Seeing the indifferent look on his face, Xia Zimu suddenly felt distressed.

The man must have gone through a lot of suffering to form this habit.

He didn't want to mention it, so she calmed down and didn't ask any more questions.

After drying his hair, he carried her to bed, turned off the light, and fell asleep with his arms around her.

In the darkness, a woman's voice sounded: "Shi Yan, I want to know about your past.

"If one day you let go, just tell me, okay?"

After a long time, just when Xia Zimu thought that Lu Jinghao would not respond, the silent air was suddenly cut by his indifferent voice.

"Lu Qingjue's legs will be disabled. I ordered someone to do it. The reason is that he gave me a chronic poison."

Lu Jinghao first noticed the strangeness. During several meetings, his mind suddenly went blank. When he came back to his senses, everyone around him looked at him strangely, and the documents in front of him were already stained red with nosebleeds. .

He thought he had some blood disease, but when he went to the hospital for an examination, everything was normal.

And not long after that, he couldn't get off the ground.

At that time, as soon as his legs touched the ground, he felt a burst of tingling pain, and his internal organs felt as if they were crushed by a machine every day.

After a while, he didn't even have the energy to speak.

The whole person seemed to be paralyzed, and could only lie in bed all day.

In the end, it was Jiang Ximian who found out what Lu Qingjue had done, and he was saved from death.

In order to prevent future troubles, he originally wanted to take Lu Qingjue's life directly.

If it weren't for Lu Jiannan's begging, Lu Qingjue would never have been as simple as having his legs crippled.

After Xia Zimu heard him finish talking about the matter between him and Lu Qingjue, he was angry but at the same time couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

"You told me that you have some minor physical problems and need to take medicine. Could it be the sequelae left by that time?"

She had asked Lu Jinghao before why there was always a faint medicinal fragrance lingering around him.

At that time, the tone of his answer was casual and careless, and she thought it was really just a small problem.

"Well. Although the poison has been cured, it still needs to be recuperated, so I often take medicine."

After speaking, he felt the depression of the person in his arms, and added: "The grievances between Lu Qingjue and I happened several years ago, in fact, I have already forgotten how I felt back then.

"It shouldn't be too difficult, otherwise I wouldn't forget it."

The person in his arms hugged his waist tightly, buried his head in his chest, and said in a muffled voice, "Lying again."

The tone complained, and the voice trembled slightly.

Lu Jinghao raised his hand and rubbed her head, "I didn't lie to you."

Xia Zimu didn't believe him at all, "What medicine did Lu Qingjue give you? I'll buy ten catties and feed him every day!"

Lu Jinghao laughed, "He has studied pharmacology and chemistry in college, and they are all made by himself, and they cannot be bought in the market.

"His legs are useless now, and he and I are considered even, so don't be unbalanced."

Xia Zimu buried his head and did not speak.

Lu Jinghao never told her about this, firstly, he didn't want her to know that he had been bullied and showed his cowardly side, and secondly, he didn't want her to feel bad about it.

Just like it is now.

He kissed her forehead, and comforted her softly: "It's all over, don't think about it, go to sleep."

Xia Zimu remained silent, still not speaking.

After a while, Xia Zimu's body suddenly trembled.

She raised her hand, pulled Lu Jinghao's wicked hand out from under her nightdress, and asked angrily, "What are you doing?"
