Lu Beichen chuckled and looked at Gu Jingyan.He just knew that Gu Jingyan would make things difficult for him.

But ultimately…

He still could only let her do that to him.

It was all his fault for putting up a humble stance, anyway.

Like what others have said, now that they were divorced, Gu Jingyan was no longer his wife. If she wanted to leave…

She would have left long ago.

As for him, he did not want to see Gu Jingyan leave at all.

It could be because he got used to her, or it could be because he liked her…

It was already a blur now. In any case, thinking about Gu Jingyan left his heart empty.

He refused to let her leave.

Furthermore, he indeed felt rather uncomfortable seeing Fu Chenxi now.

It was not because of anything else. The way she looked at him made him feel very uncomfortable.

What Gu Jingyan said was right. He was already a married man. How could she still behave like that and express her desire to be with him?

He couldn’t contain his emotions.

But he couldn’t make it so obvious in front of Gu Jingyan either.

If it was too obvious, it was bound to be useful.

He frowned and looked at Fu Chenxi. He felt that he should not keep in contact with her anymore.

After all, he had also helped her a lot all these years.

Gu Jingyan lifted her hand since she wanted to eat a fruit.

But Lu Beichen quickly walked over.

“Don’t move. Let me do it. Grapes are too moist. What if your hand got wet?”

Wow.

The others already puked all over the ground.

Naturally, everyone in the event watched Gu Jingyan with envy.

Lu Beichen was so good to her.

He even wanted to peel fruits for her.

Gu Jingyan looked at him speechlessly. “It’s not that exaggerated.”

“Of course, it is. It is if I say it is. Don’t move,” Lu Beichen said bossily. He then took a plate of grapes and carefully peeled them.

This man…

He was really… getting more and more childish.

However, Gu Jingyan glanced toward Fu Chenxi’s direction and smiled coldly.

She left it to Lu Beichen.

After that, Lu Beichen did nothing else. He kept his eyes glued on Gu Jingyan. The moment he saw Gu Jingyan try to do anything, he would rush to help her.

Everyone was really surprised, for he was the high and mighty Lu Beichen.

He was the little tyrant of the capital.

He was the playboy of the Lu family and the successor to the Lu family, the high and mighty CEO of Lu Industries.

However…

Gu Jingyan did not pale in comparison either.

The classmates dispersed, and everyone was still in wonder.

“Lu Beichen changed. He’s so considerate to a woman now. I’m so envious of Gu Jingyan. She married such a good husband.”

“Exactly. Unlike that husband of mine, he has no money and doesn’t let me do anything.”

“Don’t even talk about peeling grapes for me. If I don’t feed him, he’d chase after me.”

“Indeed, the richer the man, the nicer he’ll be to his wife.”

Fu Chenxi absorbed all these words, and her eyes fell.

She did not believe it. She did not believe it.

However, seeing Lu Beichen leave with Gu Jingyan, she simply wanted to follow after them and get to the bottom of things.

At night, Gu Jingyan naturally returned to her home.

Lu Beichen followed her persistently, but he was shut outside the door. He was so angry that he stood at the door and said, “Gu Jingyan, are you going to be so ruthless as to ignore me?”

Gu Jingyan wanted to be ruthless.

She had been too soft-hearted with Lu Beichen in the past. Hence, he bullied her through and through.

Now, it was all clear to her. He was no longer her husband. In that case, why did she have to accommodate him?

Naturally, she was free to do whatever she pleased.

As they saw Lu Beichen wait outside while Gu Jingyan refused to see him, the attendants all felt heartache for them.

Lu Beichen had never been through any hardship. He was the young master of the Lu family, born with a golden spoon in his mouth. Because of Gu Jingyan, he had gone through considerable hardship and even humbled himself.

But…

If their young mistress was not willing to, nobody could do anything about it.

Lu Beichen looked around. He couldn’t possibly wait the entire night either.

Oh well, he wasn’t in a hurry to go anywhere else either. He felt that he needed to touch Gu Jingyan’s heart bit by bit. Otherwise, such an opinionated lady like Gu Jingyan definitely would never be coddled by a few words.

However, at this time.

Something suddenly happened to Lu Qinyu…

An attendant from Lu Qinyu’s side suddenly called him and said that Lu Qinyu’s heart condition went bad. He was in the hospital again.

Lu Qinyu was old too. He needed to go to the hospital frequently for checkups.

Lu Beichen heard this and quickly headed to the hospital.

At the hospital, he saw Lu Qinyu sit there with the doctor still carefully instructing him. “It’s best if you could get a stent. That would be for the best. Otherwise, your heart will deteriorate further if this goes on.”

Lu Beichen walked over. “Dad…”

Seeing that Lu Beichen had arrived and seemingly already heard what the doctor said, Lu Qinyu said, “It’s okay, don’t listen to the doctor. He likes to exaggerate. I know my body. I’m fine, I’m just old, and my organs are failing. Sigh.”

Lu Beichen sighed and said, “Just get a stent. Listen to the doctor and not just your feelings. If we can cure every illness through our feelings, what are hospitals for?”

Lu Qinyu patted his hand. “Where’s Jingyan?”

Usually, Gu Jingyan would always be the first to know and the first to arrive in this kind of situation.

She was even closer to him than this unfilial son of his.

Lu Beichen did not dare to mention the divorce. He could only say, “She’s too tired, so I let her rest at home.”

Lu Beichen said, “Hmph, you still don’t know how to dote on your wife? But it’s true, Jingyan is so strong she would never tell anyone anything. She could be tired or hungry, but she still wouldn’t tell anyone. You should be more attentive and take good care of her. Otherwise, if she gets so exhausted that it affects her health, you’ll be the one regretting.”

Lu Beichen’s heartfelt uncomfortable. It was heavy. He nodded.

Lu Qinyu continued, “In all my life, I can’t educate the way Old Gu does. Look at Old Gu’s children. Each one of them is better than the other. And then look at me… Sigh, what a failure. What I worry about now is not my health. I just wonder if there’ll be a day when Little Che will call me Dad… As for Jinyan… Sigh. Needless to say, he hates me so much. I doubt he will ever call me dad in this lifetime.”

Lu Beichen paused.

He was still fond of Lin Che, but as for Mo Jinyan…

He couldn’t describe how he felt.

It was probably because there was some animosity between them, so he couldn’t bring himself to get closer to him.

But ultimately, that was his brother.

Looking at his father now, Lu Beichen felt that he had aged.

He was getting on in years.

If this wish could not be fulfilled, who knew when this would become his life’s regret…?

Lu Beichen said, “Dad, a son like me is not bad either. Although you never had confidence in me, I can tell you I’m no worse off than them.”

“I know, I know. You’re very filial and very earnest. You’ve done a good job with Lu Industries. Except with Jingyan, you have not been a good husband. As for everything else, you have done a good job.”
