Chapter 404: Chapter 403: A Monumental Blunder

Shao Meirou could not understand how Lu Pengcheng could have friends here, especially walking with that Nurse Luo!

But she observed carefully and noticed that the old lady’s expression was extremely off!

When she thought about the features Nurse Luo shared with Lu Pengcheng, she suddenly made some unsettling associations!

Could it be... No, it couldn’t be...

Shao Meirou’s tone was no longer soft and gentle, but had become loud and urgent, "Lu Qing! What else did your uncle say?"

Lu Qing saw that both of their expressions were very wrong, "Uh... he didn’t say anything else! But he seemed very excited and happy! It’s the first time I’ve seen him like this for so many years!"

Shao Meirou was in a state of chaos, could it be that Lu Pengcheng had someone?

The girl looked to be twenty-seven or twenty-eight, younger than Lu Zheng! So, he...

"Mom! Do you know something..."

Faced with Shao Meirou’s question, Fang Youlan had to pretend to be clueless, "How would I know anything!"

Her heart was both angry and anxious, as though her guts were being torn apart; if everything was true, then she had done something incredibly foolish!

Initially, coming to Spring City was meant to break up Lin Xia and Lu Zheng!

But now, she had inadvertently brought Lu Pengcheng right to that woman’s doorstep!

If someone now appeared before Fang Youlan with a regret pill, she would definitely eat it at any cost!

How could she have possibly known that woman was in Spring City?

If she had known earlier, she would have avoided this place no matter what!

Once Lu Pengcheng met that woman, between them there was now another...

Fang Youlan felt her heart beating wildly as if it wasn’t her own, then everything went black and she knew nothing!

Shao Meirou and Lu Qing had just noticed her odd reaction and complexion, now seeing her eyes roll back and collapse.

Both of them were frightened and screamed!

"Grandma!"

"Mom!" Shao Meirou was also scared, she couldn’t be concerned with whether Lu Pengcheng had someone else!

"Lu Qing! Go call the doctor!"

The ward turned into chaos, and Fang Youlan’s condition had indeed become serious!

Meanwhile, Lu Pengcheng and Nurse Luo were on their way to her house, he controlled his emotions and casually asked her name and about her family’s situation.

Nurse Luo said her name was Luo Yue, and they hadn’t originally lived here.

Only after she had graduated and started working, they moved from somewhere in the Forestry Bureau to the city.

Initially, for the convenience of commuting to work, they started by renting, and later bought this bungalow not far behind the hospital.

Lu Pengcheng listened calmly, yet inside, he felt as if his heart was being cut with a knife, wondering how much hardship and suffering they had endured if this girl was indeed his daughter.

Especially, he indirectly found out she was still single in her thirties and hadn’t married.

What did that imply?

Although she briefly mentioned it without dwelling on these details.

He could guess that it was likely due to a romantic hurt or family circumstances.

Otherwise, with her beautiful appearance, it was impossible that no one sought her hand in marriage.

Lu Pengcheng looked at the wooden gate painted black, with a mixture of nervousness, urgency, and a sense of unreality.

He was afraid that all this was a dream!

Not knowing at what moment he might suddenly wake up, and then it would all be gone.

Lu Pengcheng had carefully straightened his clothes before following Luo Yue inside the house.

"Mom! Mom!" Luo Yue quickly walked a few steps into the yard and called for her mother, "Look who’s here!"

"Yueyue!"

A middle-aged woman, who looked to be in her forties and quite slender, emerged from the house, wearing plain, simple clothes that still managed to look stylish.

Her hair was meticulously coiled up at the back of her head, and although there were wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, they couldn’t hide her beauty at all.

Especially, her eyes seemed as if they could speak.

One could imagine how stunning she must have been in her youth.

When she saw that it was Lu Pengcheng standing behind her daughter, she stared at him incredulously, then immediately turned cold, ordering Luo Yue, "Luo Yue! Why did you bring him back here?

I don’t want to see this man! Drive him out!" she said before turning to go back inside.

In fact, by the time she turned around, her face was already streaming with tears.

This man had ruined her life!

"Xinyan!" Lu Pengcheng quickly strode forward—he had finally seen the person he had longed for over the years; how could he possibly leave easily!

He firmly grabbed Luo Xinyan’s wrist, "Xinyan, could you give me a chance to explain, please?"

Luo Yue was at a loss, discerning something from her mother’s reaction and expression upon seeing this uncle.

"Mom! You two..." Could it be that they were once lovers?

Luo Xinyan wiped her tears, looking at the man who had aged just as she had. Even though his hair at the temples was turning gray and his face also bore wrinkles, his distinctive masculine charm was unchanged from before.

"Lu Pengcheng! We are both old, halfway to the grave—do you think those explanations are still necessary? I don’t want to hear them! Just leave!"

The events of those days had passed too long ago, so long that she no longer wished to bring them up.

If he hadn’t suddenly appeared at her house today, she might not even think about him much anymore!

"It’s necessary! Xinyan! My biggest regret in life is losing you! So even if I am to die tomorrow, I must find you and tell you..."

Although Luo Xinyan resented him, she didn’t want to hear any talk of death from him.

"Fine! I’ll give you a chance to explain!"

Since he had found her place, knowing his nature, he wouldn’t easily give up.

"Yueyue! You go back to work!"

"Mom!" Luo Yue was reluctant to leave; she wanted to hear what was between the two.

"Listen! When you come back from work, mom will tell you!"

"Alright then!" Luo Yue knew she had only taken a short leave from the office, and staying longer would definitely not work.

Once Luo Yue left, Lu Pengcheng followed Luo Xinyan inside the house.

He sat down in a chair, glanced around the room, observing its arrangement, his eyes never leaving Luo Xinyan.

After so many years without seeing each other, seeing her again felt like a sea-change, yet his heart was incredibly satisfied—he had finally found her in his lifetime.

"Xinyan! Back then, I really had nothing to do with that Feng person! It was all lies my mother told to deceive you!

When I went to find you again, your family had moved, and you had quit your job,

I searched many places! Later, I heard you might have been seen around here.

I came here looking for you, but never found you..." Lu Pengcheng tirelessly told her the things he had always wanted to explain.

"All those things happened so many years ago! Whether it was a misunderstanding doesn’t matter anymore!" Luo Xinyan scoffed coldly, "Is your mother still alive?"

She would never forget that woman’s face, who had bullied her while she was living with her widowed mother, going to extremes to make her break up with Lu Pengcheng.
