Chapter 133: Disappointment

Lu Qingzhuo’s heart skipped a beat. The sudden ecstasy almost made him unable to control himself.

He slowly tightened his grip on He Youran’s shoulder and resisted the urge to hold her in his arms. Trembling, he asked,

“Youran, is… is what you said true?”

“Yes, it’s true.” He Youran nodded. “I’m also responsible for this incident.”

The word ‘responsible’ was like a bucket of cold water. It instantly extinguished Lu Qingzhuo’s passion, making the bitterness in his heart even stronger.

But, he also felt that this was a good thing.

It was a good thing that He Youran agreed.

They had been together day and night, and he had always been good to her. One day, He Youran would change her opinion of him. It wasn’t impossible for their future.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingzhuo collected his emotions and smiled at her.

“Okay.”

It wasn’t that He Youran didn’t notice Lu Qingzhuo’s change in mood.

But, she had no choice.

She had a lot of things on her plate, some of which she couldn’t say out loud. Sometimes, she couldn’t tell whether Lu Qingzhuo’s matter was more troublesome or her matter was more troublesome.

So, in order not to drag each other down, it was best not to invest too much emotion in the beginning.

She felt that this was also for the good of Lu Qingzhuo.

So, she hardened her heart and continued:

“I agree with your suggestion, but the time limit is still only three years. After three years, I will leave. As for Shouxin, when the time comes, it will be up to him to make his own choice.”

Lu Qingzhuo was about to speak when He Youran shook her head at him. At the same time, she removed Lu Qingzhuo’s hand from her shoulder.

“I hope you can agree and respect Shouxin’s decision. I believe that kicking Shouxin out of the Lu family’s family tree won’t be difficult.”

“Youran…”

“Qingzhuo, I believe in you. With your ability, you will definitely be able to bring the Lu family back to its peak in three years.”

Since she had already said this, Lu Qingzhuo had no choice but to agree.

He only hoped that there was still time in the future for He Youran to fall in love with him one day.

“Okay.” Lu Qingzhuo put away his dejected mood and began to think about serious matters.

“Since you have agreed, then I will soon make your and Shouxin’s identities public. Wealthy families and their children will recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. At that time, our Lu family members will all appear. We might even have to hold a press conference. But don’t worry, I will definitely make sure that you and Shouxin are safe in advance. In the Lu family, you will always be free. You just have a new identity, that’s all.”

“Okay.”

“Then I’ll immediately arrange for someone to bring Shouxin over.” Lu Qingzhuo immediately said, “Although the He family in imperial capital gave me three days, it’s still safer to bring Shouxin over to the Lu family just in case.”

“Okay.”

After the two of them finished talking, Lu Qingzhuo let Pang Zhong in and instructed him to arrange for a car to go to the place where He Youran was currently renting.

He Youran didn’t have much luggage. They only packed for about two hours before everything was packed up.

“Youran, I’m sorry to trouble you to stay in the Lu family’s courtyard for now. When we return to the Lu family’s main residence, I’ll make new arrangements for you.”

The Lu family’s courtyard in Rong city wasn’t very big. Lu Qingzhuo always felt that letting He Youran and her son stay here was unfair to them, but they had no other choice now.

If they wanted to return to the imperial capital, they had to make a fake personal identification first. Only when He Youran and her son were officially registered in the Lu family’s genealogy would they be able to return legally.

“Okay.” He Youran did not have high expectations for staying there. Right now, she only had one thing to worry about.

On her phone screen, there was a chat box with a beauty control. The latest message was from five minutes ago, and there was only a short sentence on it.
