Chapter 1350 - 1349: Looking Forward

From the words of Paul Smith before him, Lu Yu could clearly perceive a trace of sorrow in the eyes of this Royal Clothing Master.

This hint of sadness flashed briefly, but was still captured by Lu Yu's keen eyes.

Obviously, Paul Smith is also a person with a story!

With this thought, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a touch of sympathy for this elderly gentleman before him, and he spoke softly, "The departed have gone, there's no use in rushing repentance."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's voice was low and his words carried a deep sense of profundity. Though his face was indifferent, his eyes bore traces of somber insight.

In reality, both Lu Yu and Paul Smith have quite similar experiences, but Lu Yu's were heavier and more profound.

When the Lu Family was decimated years ago, what Lu Yu endured was not something an ordinary person could easily bear. Thus, Lu Yu now appears more mature and composed than the Paul Smith before him!

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Paul Smith shuddered slightly, gazing at Lu Yu with surprised astonishment.

He never imagined that Lu Yu, so young, could exhibit such calmness and poise.

This greatly astonished Paul Smith!

Seeing Paul Smith's expression, Lu Yu smiled gently, patting Paul Smith's shoulder lightly, and said, "Ahead the road is long, life should be moving forward rather than looking back repeatedly."

"Past events are like vines that only hold you back, ultimately causing unbearable pain!"

"The only thing you should do is move forward, and surely your deceased wife would not want to see you like this."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's eyes were filled with depth, and compared to Paul Smith's astonished look, it seemed their roles had reversed!

Lu Yu now seemed like an elder, while Paul Smith seemed like a youth.

"Saying all this"

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Paul Smith slowly began, "What is it all for? Is it merely to persuade me to sell you this gown?"

Paul Smith could not understand why Lu Yu acted in such a manner, nor did he comprehend why this young Lu Yu before him would say these things to him.

"Your clothes are excellent, and this gown is wonderful, truly fitting my fiancée extremely well."

Hearing Paul Smith's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly and said, "But these things aren't necessities to us, these clothes and items are something we like, yet they are not irreplaceable!"

"I'm saying so much merely because I've had similar experiences as you."

When speaking, Lu Yu's gaze fell upon Paul Smith, and he said, "So, seeing you is like seeing my lost self, but I'm unlike you, I couldn't afford to dwell in grief."

Back then, Lu Yu's family was struck by disaster, and he was deeply mired in grief, indeed resembling Paul Smith perfectly.

Yet Lu Yu did not have Paul Smith's comfort; before he could grieve, he was thrown upon Paradise Island, living through daily battles, where the grief was gradually worn away amid the strife.

Thus, Lu Yu now deeply understands Paul Smith's emotions, and it is precisely this understanding that leads him to speak advice.

As Lu Yu spoke, Paul Smith's body slightly trembled, his eyes filled with shock as he looked at Lu Yu.

He hadn't anticipated that Lu Yu could express such words.

"My words end here."

Watching Paul Smith's expression, Lu Yu said, "What follows is up to you, take care of yourself."

"But I must tell you, being endlessly entangled in the past will only hinder you, bringing immense pain!"

With these words, Lu Yu no longer paid heed to Paul Smith. He gradually stepped forward, approaching Leng Qingqiu, and said, "Alright, change out of the dress, we're heading to the movies now."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's face carried a playful smile, gazing at Leng Qingqiu with words full of playful amusement.

Looking at Leng Qingqiu, Lu Yu's gaze was filled with tenderness, no longer containing any aggression.

"Okay"

Upon hearing, Leng Qingqiu nodded lightly and said, "I'll change right away."

In speaking, Leng Qingqiu immediately prepared to change clothes.

"Wait!"

Just as Leng Qingqiu turned, Paul Smith's voice broke in, "You don't need to change that dress!"

As he spoke, Paul Smith said lightly, "You can take this dress, I can entirely give it to you, I don't need it anymore!"

In speaking, Paul Smith's voice was deep, carrying a decisive tone.

"Oh?"

At this, Lu Yu said, "You're sure about this? You know this represents your longing for your wife, wouldn't giving it to us be inappropriate?"

In his words, Lu Yu's voice was calm, giving a feeling of amusement.

"Take it, no charge"

At these words, Paul Smith said lightly, "Clothes should be worn by a suitable person, locking them away is a great waste, and your fiancée perfectly matches this gown, thus she should wear it!"

Speaking, Paul Smith's voice was somber. It seemed he had realized something, the seriousness on his face gradually dissolving, appearing quite affable.

"You're right, I truly should look forward."

Paul Smith looked at Lu Yu, his voice still exceptionally deep, yet his tone had greatly changed!

Paul Smith now appeared very indifferent, though his emotions were still thin, no longer exhibiting the hatred from the beginning.
