He sat quietly in his car for a moment before he stepped on the accelerator, turned the steering wheel, and drove toward the office.
As he waited at a red light, the image of Xu Wennuan squatting by the road and crying helplessly flashed before his eyes. His heart ached, and he fell into a daze again.
When the red light turned green, all the cars in front of him had already left, but his car was still parked in the same spot.
Honking sounds came one after another from behind him, but he didn't notice it at all. It wasn't until someone with a bad temper couldn't help but jump out of the car, run to his side, and forcefully knock on the window twice that he suddenly woke up.
The mouth of the person outside the window moved incessantly, probably angrily scolding him. Lu Bancheng ignored him and slowly retracted his gaze, restarting his car.
It was barely eight o 'clock when he arrived at the office. There was still half an hour before the morning meeting.
Lu Bancheng hadn't eaten breakfast, but he didn't feel hungry at all. He sat at his desk in a daze again, as if his soul had left his body.
When his secretary came to his office to call him for a meeting, she called him ten times before he finally heard her. With an absent-minded expression, he said, "Oh," and bent down to search for the documents for the meeting.
The documents were right next to his hand, but he couldn't find them no matter how much he flipped through them and messed up his entire desk.
His secretary, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to watch any longer. She took the documents and handed them to Lu Bancheng, reminding him softly, "Boss Lu, the documents for the meeting are here."
Lu Bancheng stopped searching and stared at the empty space. "Hmm," he grunted. After a while, he took the documents from his secretary and absent-mindedly walked to the conference room.
Everyone in the conference room was expressing their opinions, and Lu Bancheng didn't know what was going on with him. As he listened, the voices gradually turned into Xu Wennuan's sobbing.
Her sobs grew louder and louder until, eventually, he lost control and stood up from his chair.
The conference room was silent for a moment. Everyone's attention was on him. He was completely unaware of his gaffe. He tightly pursed his lips and stared at the big screen in front of him.
His secretary, who was sitting next to him, called out, "Boss Lu." Hearing that, Lu Bancheng's gaze drifted over to the secretary. Without saying a word, he left a group of stunned people behind and directly walked out of the conference room. He rushed into the bathroom and locked the door. Standing in front of the sink, he turned on the tap, scooped up some cold water, and washed his face. Then, his confused mind finally became a little clearer. Only then did he slowly raise his head and look at himself in the mirror.
Through his own eyes, he could clearly see his own heart.
No matter how cruel and merciless she was in the past when she took away their child, or how painful it was for them to be together.
No matter how much he cared about that innocent and pitiful child, when he saw her squatting on the road in despair and crying, his hatred was washed away by an indescribable heartache.
He couldn't bear to part with her … It was just like how he couldn't help but ruin her collaboration with that perverted man when he saw her being forced to drink in Jin Garden. It was just like how he couldn't bear to touch her when she was the one who took the initiative to be intimate with him yesterday. It was just like how his entire world was thrown into chaos when he saw her crying last night …
