"Turn off the lights."
He froze and quickly turned around. To his surprise, he saw a petite figure sitting on the windowsill. The woman hugged her knees tightly, and her pale face was completely hidden between her knees.
Lu Yihan had always thought that this woman's figure was thin and small. Sometimes, when she stood in front of him and talked to him, she had to raise her neck. However, he had never thought that she could be so small.
She was like a ball of soft cotton that would disappear in front of the world with a gust of wind. Such a quiet scene gave him a soul-stirring feeling.
He frowned, took a few steps forward, and called out tentatively, "Xin Yu?"
Xin Yu, who was on the windowsill, didn't move at all. She just sat there quietly and didn't make a sound.
Lu Yihan called out again, "Leng Xinyu."
Seeing that she didn't move at all, he simply went forward and bent slightly in front of her. Xin Yu didn't look well. She looked very haggard, and two-thirds of her palm-sized face was hidden under her knees. Only her large, lifeless eyes were exposed to the air, but he couldn't see any of the emotions in them.
Lu Yihan more or less knew that this woman was like this because of the child she lost. He had never comforted a woman, let alone under such circumstances. He really thought it would be ridiculous if he comforted her, but he couldn't deny that seeing her like this made him very sad.
It seemed that Leng Xinyu was already someone who didn't care about his own injuries, but cared about whether she was doing well.
"Leng Xinyu, it's me. Raise your head and look at me."
Lu Yihan sat beside her. He took out the divorce agreement from his pocket and placed it in front of her. He lowered his eyes to look at the divorce agreement and said slowly, "This is what you wanted the most, isn't it? I specially brought it to you today. You and I have been tormenting each other for so long. I'm willing to divorce you now. You just have to sign it. "
As he said this, he reached into his pocket and pulled out an expensive fountain pen that he had prepared. He held it in front of her, but she still didn't move at all. Lu Yihan had never seen Xin Yu so silent before. His heart started to panic for no reason. He hesitated for a moment before reaching out to grab her hand. However, the moment his fingertips touched her body, she suddenly shrank back like a hedgehog.
Her originally empty eyes were now filled with fear.
Lu Yihan was shocked by her reaction. He quickly retracted his hand and looked at her with furrowed brows. "Don't be nervous, Xin Yu. I'm Lu Yihan. I won't hurt you. what's wrong with you? Okay, I know I asked unnecessary questions. I know you're not in a good situation right now, but you don't have to treat me like a hedgehog. I didn't mean anything by it. "
She didn't receive any response. She still maintained her original posture and sat there without moving.
Lu Yihan had never seen her like this. She looked so lifeless that he felt sad.
He didn't want to admit how weak he was in front of her. He was so weak. He clearly liked her, but he still silently chose to let her be.
The word "let her be" sounded so beautiful, but only the one who let her be would know how powerless he was when he did such a thing.
Who would be willing to give in when they truly loved someone?
The so-called "I'll be happy if you're the only one who's happy." That was just a self-deception. Thinking it through didn't mean that he was suddenly enlightened. It was because he had no choice but to let go.
"You won't talk to me?"
Lu Yihan sighed and reached out to massage his temples. The fountain pen in his hand remained awkwardly in front of her. She didn't want to take it. She looked like a porcelain doll now. Lu Yihan didn't dare to touch her casually, so he placed the pen on the divorce agreement. He stared at the blank space where the woman's signature was. "I don't know what to say to you, but you're not doing yourself any good either. Xin Yu, to be honest, when I signed the divorce agreement, I was also unhappy. I've been married to you for more than five years. When I married you, I really wanted to divorce you immediately. In the five years after we got married, I've never looked you in the eye. Sometimes I think that maybe it's true that life is full of ups and downs. That's why you don't want to look me in the eye, but I've fallen for you. "
"Can you talk to me for a moment?"
“”
"Haha, it wasn't easy for me to sneak in. I waited at the hospital entrance for an entire night, but I didn't see Qin Fangang leave. I couldn't even come in. He definitely didn't want me to see you. I don't want to continue arguing with him."
“”
"Xin Yu, it's fine if the child is gone. It's not like you can't have children anymore. You'll have another chance. Didn't I divorce you? In the future, I have no right to ask you who you want to be with. I wish you happiness. You'll get better. "
When Lu Yihan said this, his deep male voice sounded a little choked. He had been trying very hard to control his tone, but his emotions leaked out too quickly and caught him off guard. "I've said too much. Sigh, I've never said so many sentimental things to a woman. This isn't like me. Talk to me. It's uncomfortable to keep it in like this."
"— Yihan."
"Do you know what kind of person your father is?"
Lu Yihan was stunned.
He didn't expect Xin Yu to suddenly ask about his father.
What kind of person was Lu Shiyun?
No matter how much hatred he had for Lu Shiyun, they were still father and son. His relationship with Lu Shiyun was completely different from the relationship between Qin Fangang and Lu Shiyun.
To Lu Yihan, Lu Shiyun was his real father.
— He grew up by Lu Shiyun's side. Except for five years ago, when Lu Shiyun forced him to marry a wife he didn't like, he didn't have any bad intentions or conflicts with Lu Shiyun in his more than 20 years of life.
Some feelings, other than blood ties, were accumulated over time. Even if Lu Yiting wasn't Lu Shiyun's biological daughter, perhaps in Lu Shiyun's heart, he still had feelings for this "daughter." Therefore, sometimes, in order to hide his own secrets, people who lost their minds and didn't do much to Lu Yiting.
If Lu Shiyun was like this, what more Lu Yihan?
He wasn't a cold-blooded and vicious person. On the contrary, his heart was actually quite soft. Now that he suddenly heard Xin Yu ask what kind of person his father was in such an inexplicable tone, he found it hard to answer, but of course, he was also surprised.
"Why are you suddenly asking about this? What's wrong with the old man? "
For a moment, Lu Yihan really didn't understand. Because five years ago, it was Lu Shiyun who insisted on marrying this woman to him and making her Lady Lu. And in these five years, he saw with his own eyes how much the old man cared for her. Sometimes, even Lu Yiting would get jealous because of this. Of course, he saw how well the old man treated her.
He even gave him 5% of the Lu Clan's shares. That was something many people dreamed of. Lu Yiting had been the daughter of the Lu family for more than 20 years, but she didn't get anything. But Leng Xinyu …
Lu Yihan couldn't understand why Xin Yu would ask such a question at this time. But he wasn't stupid. He was also a shrewd man. Very quickly, he thought of another problem —
Because the old man treated her well and never agreed to a divorce with her, did the fact that she lost the child have something to do with the old man?
Lu Yihan was shocked by his own thoughts, but he knew very well that if that was really the case — it didn't seem strange at all.
All of this seemed to be out of his expectations, but it also seemed to be within his expectations.
How to describe a person like the old man? Lu Yihan's mind quickly came up with an adjective — he cared about his face.
Even if he wasn't an arrogant person, he would never allow something like this to happen right under his nose. To put it bluntly, Lu Yihan now thought that he knew very well that the old man didn't agree to a divorce because he had single-handedly arranged this marriage. Now that Xin Yu had gotten together with his eldest son, it was obviously a kind of humiliation to him.
Not to mention how everyone in City C would view the Lu family when they found out in the future.
But if the child in Xin Yu's womb really died because of this, Lu Yihan felt that he couldn't forgive such behavior just by thinking about it.
Actually, humans were made of flesh and blood. Resentment, unwillingness — these emotions could occasionally override a person's rationality, but they couldn't control a person's rationality.
That child was still innocent after all. It was a life.
"Yihan, in the past, I always felt that everyone in the Lu family was against me and couldn't stand me. But only your father treated me the best. He thought of everything for me and helped me think of everything. He provided for me to go to school, provided for me to eat and wear, and even let my father stay in the best private hospital and receive the best treatment. At that time, I thought that he was really an unparalleled good man. In this world, there was no one better than him."
