After getting dressed, Lu Yan folded Xi Chen's blazer neatly, consciously put it on the front passenger seat, and said politely: "Thank you."

Xi Chen raised his eyes to look at him from the rearview mirror, and noticed that Lu Yan was still crying. He couldn't help being startled, and after a few seconds of silence, he handed over a tissue and said, "I didn't expect San Shao's cleanliness to be so serious. Offended. The last time Young Master Gu took you to the hospital to see this disease, what did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said that it is impossible to cure after too long time, and the symptoms can only be relieved through psychological treatment." Lu Yan took a tissue to dry the corners of his eyes, took a breath, smiled at Xi Chen, and comforted, "Mr. Xi, don't mind." , This kind of tears are affected by emotions, and I can't control myself, and it will be fine after a while. In fact, I don't feel that bad in my heart, so don't worry."

Xi Chen gave a soft "um" and made no other response.He stared at Lu Yan's frozen pale face in the mirror and remained silent for a long time. It could be seen that the other party smiled very reluctantly. Although the chances of contact were limited, after a few times, Xi Chen could also judge this person through the other party's words and demeanor. The third young master has a good temper, at least he is reasonable, gentle and gentle, and he knows how to explain things to others.

Asking himself, Xi Chen is very clear that his act of putting a coat on Lu Yan just now did not involve much concern, and more or less there is a bit of unkindness in it.He didn't believe that Lu Yan couldn't detect this meaning, and he was a pampered young master, but he didn't expect that he could bear it so much, and he didn't expect that he could not only bear it, but also give him this "deliberately doing it" when his mood fluctuated seriously. "People looking for the next step, this EQ is really frighteningly high.

Realizing this, the manager laughed silently, thinking that this Lu Yan is really not annoying, usually calm and self-controlled, well-behaved, and outstanding in appearance, but such a beauty like a jade carving suffers from cleanliness, and her eyes are red from crying There is still such a pitiful look in his appearance, it is no wonder that his own Young Master Gu will be attracted to him.

As long as you're not homophobic, you can't stand another man.

But you still have to be careful, Xi Chen secretly slandered, once a person with a high EQ becomes ruthless, there is really no room left, if he can humbly and gently accept your malice, he will naturally be able to look at you and cry with a smile.Moreover, according to what Lu Yan said, the inheritance competition between the children of the Lu family has obviously begun. His car accident was probably caused by Li Shujun. In this way, the third young master returned to the Lu family to take The purpose of the will effective material is self-evident.

The struggle among the heirs of the Lu family had nothing to do with outsiders like them, but Lu Yan came in as Gu Jinglin's assistant. But it changed completely.

Before everything became clear, the power of the Lu family was in the hands of that woman, Li Shujun. How could she allow a signed artist under a mere subsidiary company to openly assist her deceased husband's illegitimate son to interfere in her family affairs?

The more Xi Chen thought about it, the more chaotic things became in his heart, so he simply looked away and didn't care about Lu Yan. He casually lowered the window of the car by a slit, and then smoked to pass the time.

Lu Yan felt a little weak from the rain, but it was the end of April after all, and no matter how cold the suburbs were, it was past the season of warm air.He quietly covered his cold and stiff fingers, and when he warmed up a little, he took out the "Inheritance Qualification Identification" in the kraft paper bag and checked it out.

There was a supplementary statement drawn up according to Lu Chengrui's own intention, which was basically consistent with what Lawyer Na Rijiang repeated.That is to say, the will has already been made, but only the biological children are eligible to inherit.And the time for qualification verification is within three months after Lu Chengrui's death, and the lawyer will announce the result when the deadline is up.

After browsing the content of the supplementary explanation, Lu Yan flipped through the stack of printed documents again, and pulled out the paternity test report from it.

The attending physician's signature in the lower right corner was indeed "Sun Wanjun", and it was also stamped with the red seal of the Central Hospital. It seemed that he had found the right person.

Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, took out his mobile phone and saved the phone number in his mind, and then began to plan how to ask the old professor out for a talk.

At this moment, the door of the cab opened suddenly.

Lu Yan raised his head upon hearing the sound, only to see the back of Xi Chen getting out of the car under an umbrella.He looked up in the direction the other party was leaving, and saw someone walking towards him.

There were Gu Jinglin and the chatter who had met in the lounge before, in addition to Li Shujun, the three young masters and ladies of the Lu family, and a few strange men and women who seemed to be of high status at first glance.Everyone was surrounded by bodyguards who were in charge of holding umbrellas to lead the way. A group of people walked into the parking lot in a mighty manner, then separated and boarded the pre-prepared car.

In the rainy day, the fog was thick and the distance was long. Lu Yan's vision was blocked, but he still noticed a figure that looked very familiar.He subconsciously switched to the window seat on the other side, brushed off the moisture on the glass, and was stunned when he saw the man's appearance clearly.

The man I met on the second floor of the stairs was talking to Gu Jinglin, and they seemed to be familiar with each other.Because in Lu Yan's perception, Gu Jinglin's attitude towards outsiders has always been very cold, and he cherishes words like gold, never saying much, even when facing Xi Chen.But facing that man, his attitude obviously showed a little more respect from juniors to elders, which surprised Lu Yan very much.

But after a while, the man was sent back to the limousine by his subordinates, and Gu Jinglin whispered a few words to Xi Chen, during which time he even looked towards Lu Rover.In the end, only Xi Chen returned with an umbrella, while Gu Jinglin got into the white BMW that had driven over earlier.

Xi Chen opened the door and got into the car, put the umbrella away and stood on the side of the passenger seat, started the engine and said, "I'm going to the Cold Spring Cemetery soon, what Gu Shao means is that you stay here first, you don't need to change it, so as not to be caught Others saw it."

Lu Yan's mind was not on this matter at all, and when Xi Chen finished speaking, he nodded absently, and asked casually, "Who was that man talking to Mr. Gu just now?"

Xi Chen was startled, then looked back at Lu Yan suspiciously: "You don't know him?"

Lu Yan obediently said "Yes", and said frankly: "I haven't been back for a long time, and I don't know much about the people and things here."

"Then what do you ask him for?" Xi Chen came out with a burst of blood.

Lu Yan was instantly stopped by the question, thinking that this manager was really too sensitive, he was silent for a few seconds, and explained in a very sincere tone: "It's like this, I was in the villa just now, I left the hall When I met this person later, I was more impressed. I also saw him come out with Li Shujun and several high-ranking members of the Lu family, so I was a little curious."

He intentionally concealed the exact location where he met the other party, so as not to arouse Xi Chen's resentment.

Xi Chen was skeptical about this explanation, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "These few are not senior executives of the Lu Group, but the CEO and main person in charge of Donghuang Entertainment. After the funeral, there will actually be a big It was not a small dinner, it was a family banquet in name, and they were invited to attend. In fact, it was a chance to talk about future cooperation. After all, everyone in the entertainment circle now knows that Donghuang Entertainment and Xingqi The media is about to co-produce a movie, and the contact will be more frequent in the future."

"As for the person you asked--" Xi Chen paused for a moment, started on the gas, and drove the Land Rover to keep up with Gu Jinglin's BMW, and slowly drove away from the parking lot, "He is the founder of Xingqi Media, Mr. Zhang, Zhang Tianqi Sir." At this point, Xi Chen sneered suddenly, and said, "In this circle, entertainment companies have only one purpose for approaching artists under other companies, and that is to throw olive branches, and because Mr. Zhang personally contacted Young Master Gu, So this time the weight of the olive branch has weighed a lot."

"That's it." Lu Yan answered politely, he had no interest in whether this person surnamed Zhang wanted to poach Gu Jinglin, he only cared about the boss of the original rival company, even if he now has a cooperative relationship with Lu's subsidiary , can come down from the private bedroom of Lu's villa with just this?

Isn't this nonsense? !

Of course, he could only keep this question in his heart, he couldn't say it, let alone let Xi Chen see the clue.

Just when Lu Yan was in a daze with preoccupation, there was a soft "buzz" sound in the quiet and silent carriage, which was the vibration of the mobile phone.

Lu Yan didn't react for a while, mainly because he didn't expect anyone to find him in this situation. It wasn't until the second vibration sounded that he realized belatedly that it was the mobile phone in his pocket.Lu Yan took out his mobile phone to check, and saw that the SMS message pushed from the screen displayed a line of text, the content was——

Master: [I came out late due to something urgent, Xi Chen didn't make things difficult for you, did I? ] Lu Yan pressed his fingerprint to unlock the screen, stared at the line of Chinese for a few seconds, then looked up at the BMW in front of him, and then edited a message to reply.

At the same time, Gu Jinglin's cell phone vibrated in the front car, and Mr. Actor swiped the screen to check it.

The message sent by the contact person signed as "Xiaojieji" is: [No, Mr. Gu drives hard. 】Gu Jinglin replied: 【You kiss me once, and I will drive properly. 】Small cleanliness: 【Some people think they have a long life, and I can't stop it...:)】Gu Jinglin: [...] Gu Jinglin: [I'll give you another chance. 】

Small cleanliness: 【mua~(づ ̄3 ̄)づ】

Little cleanliness: [The road is slippery in rainy days, really don't use your phone. 】

Looking at the two text messages sent in a row, the man's dark eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a faint smile on the bottom of his eyes.Holding the phone with one hand, Gu Jinglin didn't know what to reply to Lu Yan for a long time. In the end, she simply didn't reply, just turned off the screen, and drove obediently.

Half an hour later, the convoy arrived at Cold Spring Cemetery and stopped next to the innermost private cemetery.

Xi Chen made a detour to a place far away from other vehicles before turning off the engine and parking the car. After pulling out the key, he said nonchalantly, "Don't go with you if you're not wearing women's clothes. The process of burying the ashes is very fast. When you come back, don’t walk around alone, lest you be bumped into by others.”

Lu Yan nodded obediently, Xi Chen handed over the car keys to him to keep, and said: "For safety's sake, I don't lock the car door, you keep this, if anything happens, just drive back to Shao's apartment, don't worry about me. "

"Thank you." Lu Yan said.

Xi Chen stopped talking, took an umbrella and opened the door to get out of the car.

Lu Yan stayed in the car, staring at the dark crowd on the grass in the distance through the misty car window, and then imagined that there was an empty grave among the crowd, and the old pastor would face it with his name engraved on it. A eulogy was read on the birthday stele, and finally, under the watchful eyes of a group of strangers with their own concerns, the small urn was placed inside, covered with soil, presented flowers, bowed, and left.

It was like a strangely absurd black humor, but he, the client, was lucky enough to witness it with his own eyes.

It's so ridiculous.

Unknowingly, it was close to six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky was completely dark.

During the heavy rain, the taillights of cars disappeared into the night one after another. After the funeral, the guests began to leave the venue one after another.

Lu Yan had a low-grade fever, and then fell asleep directly on the seat. I don't know how long it took until the car door was opened, and the damp water vapor filled the car. Lu Yan was awakened by the cold air, and looked up in a daze. people.

Gu Jinglin held up a black umbrella, looked down at Lu Yan who was sleeping in a ball, and said lightly: "It's almost time to leave, do you want to go and see your father?"

Lu Yan pressed the corner of his forehead to calm himself down. After feeling clearer, he turned around and packed up the documents spread on the seat, got out of the car and got under Gu Jinglin's umbrella, and said, "Put the things back in your car first."

"Found it?" Gu Jinglin said.

"Well," Lu Yan said, "it's finally not a waste of time."

Gu Jinglin took him back to his BMW and opened the door. Lu Yan put the document bag and the medicine box into the storage compartment of the co-pilot, then stood up and said, "Let's go."

After speaking, the two walked towards the private cemetery with umbrellas.

This land is regarded as the ancestral tomb of the Lu family, and some elders whose names Lu Yan has never heard of are also buried here.Gu Jinglin took him to Lu Chengrui's tombstone, but Lu Yan walked past his father's tombstone as if he hadn't seen it at all, and stopped in front of his own lonely stone tablet a few meters away.

"It's a good experience," Lu Yan chuckled, with a sense of self-deprecation in his words, "After all, no one can have the opportunity to sweep his own grave, so I think I'm quite lucky. "

Gu Jinglin smiled silently, walked over to hold an umbrella for him, and said, "I thought you would want to see Mr. Lu."

"He—"

Lu Yan picked up a white rose from the ground. The flower was damaged by the rain, and the petals were a little wrinkled.Lu Yan lowered his eyes to stare at the crease on the snow-white petals, it felt like a whip mark someone left on the child's immature back, it was very clear and painful.

"To be honest, I think I can stand here calmly, face the person in the grave calmly, and accept the title of 'father' again. These are already the limit." Lu Yan pinched the white rose flower , five fingers clasped tightly, pulled lightly, then threw the flower branch in front of his stele, turned around, walked slowly back to Lu Chengrui's grave, raised his hand and let go.

All the crushed petals fell and fell on the surface of the stone tablet, which was washed by the rain and made a mess.

Gu Jinglin quietly watched the scene in front of him, and couldn't tell whether Lu Yan was paying homage or humiliating.

"Before I returned to China, I personally didn't have any feelings for Li Shujun. I knew she didn't like me. If I were her, I wouldn't accept a child born to my husband who had sex with other women outside. She has no reason. Love me, and there is no reason to be nice to me. During the 16 years I was outside, I hated her, but I never thought of revenge on her."

"but--!"

Lu Yan's voice trembled.

"I really can't forgive this man."

"I would rather he never showed up, and I would rather stay in that orphanage, but no matter what, I don't want to be like this in my life—seeing hope after accepting my fate, and seeing hope shattered before I can touch happiness , and all this is thanks to him.”

"People who have nothing don't suffer. The pain is that people who have nothing have to lose it."

"Actually, I made a mistake in one sentence. Lu Sanshao did not die at the foot of West Mountain, but died on the day he was sent back to the United States by this man 16 years ago."

"I don't love him, and I won't love him, and I—"

Lu Yan closed his eyes reluctantly.

"--I hate him!"
