When it came to Lu Jinnian, Xu Jiamu felt really conflicted.
Men were more or less impulsive and protective. When he found out that Xu Enterprise was taken away by him, he went to find him to ask him why he did it. But when he reached Huan Ying Entertainment and received the call, he found out that his mother's investments and Xu Enterprise's stock market were all caused by him, and that his mother had even fainted from anger. At that time, the passion in his bones burst forth, and at the time, he didn't know what to say. He even thought that after so many years of brotherhood with Lu Jinnian, their friendship was over. But when his mother and the housekeeper echoed his bad words, he still felt a little angry.
Xu Jiamu suddenly felt a little sad. Lu Jinnian had already treated him so well, yet he still couldn't bear to part with his half-brother... Xu Jiamu raised his hand to rub his face, gulped, and said weakly, "Qiao Qiao, go in and keep my mom company. I was a little harsh with my words just now, she must be really upset right now."
Qiao Anhao nodded gently.
Xu Jiamu strode down the stairs and out of the house. He found a tree in the yard, leaned against it, and lit a cigarette. Amidst the lingering smoke, he thought back to when he was younger and had set off fireworks under this tree. He had been mischievous and almost burned his eyes, but it was that quiet, beautiful, and girl-like brother who had suddenly reached out and grabbed the fireworks. At that time, he was the little emperor of the Xu family. When he cried, everyone surrounded him. Even after so many years, he still remembered that when he was escorted back to the house, he turned his head and saw a scene that he would never forget. He stood alone under the tree, his expression as cold as ever. Perhaps it was because of the pain, but the hand that he had used to hold the fireworks trembled uncontrollably.
At that thought, the corners of Xu Jiamu's eyes started to moisten. He used all his strength to take a deep drag of the cigarette.
Back in the bedroom, the housekeeper was trying to comfort Han Ruchu. Qiao Anhao sat by the side of the bed, softly replying, but her thoughts kept drifting away. Her mind was filled with Lu Jinnian's figure.
When he was three, he had blood cancer, and Xu Jiamu had saved him... Xu Jiamu had saved his life, so why did he do that to his benefactor? What's more, if he really wanted to deal with the Xu family, he could have gotten rid of them. Why did he let Xu Jiamu stay?
Honestly speaking, when she had asked three times if he was the one who did it, he had answered her frankly. It was far more shocking than what she had read on the news. Now that she had calmed down, she thought back to what the housekeeper and Xu Jiamu had said. Suspicions started to surface in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong.
In the afternoon, on one side was a good friend she had grown up with, and on the other side was the man she had loved for so many years. She subconsciously didn't want to face such a situation, so she couldn't control her emotions. Because she was too emotional, she didn't pay attention to her own words, nor did she notice what he had said... Now that she thought about it, when she said "Xu Jiamu wouldn't do that", he seemed to have said something to her? Could it be that he was explaining to her?
