Chapter 352: 352 He doesn’t know that Ruan Qingyang is gone_1

"The girl is not even twenty years old, and you’ve already won her over? I’ve been worried about your personality might be keeping you from finding a girl you like."

Lu Mohai patted Xu Boyan’s shoulder, nodding in satisfaction.

Xu Boyan is indeed excellent. So much so that many people want to marry him, but none of them are driven by love.

He worried that Xu Boyan’s personality might make it difficult to meet a girl he’d like. He was also worried that Xu Boyan might remain single forever.

One should never settle for less. A love born out of settling will never bring happiness nor will a marriage.

"Lu Uncle, you should worry about yourself."

Xu Boyan looked at Lu Mohai, who was already in his forties, and not far from fifty, but still alone.

Lu family’s property is considerable, and the side branches of Lu family are watching like a tiger, only Lu Mohai remained from this branch. Lu Mohai was an only child, and his parents are deceased.

"As for me, I’m pretty happy by myself."

Lu Mohai shook his head and said, his voice filled with bitterness. Why he was still alone after all these years, probably only he knew.

The person he likes doesn’t like him. He couldn’t forget that girl. He hadn’t met anyone that made his heart flutter since.

He doesn’t want to settle for less; being alone is rather nice.

The two chatted idly, discussing many things, as they hadn’t seen each other in a long time.

"Have a grape."

Lu Mohai pushed the grapes he picked in front of Xu Boyan, slowly opening his mouth to speak.

"Uncle Lu, you didn’t like grapes before."

Xu Boyan looked at the translucent grapes in the basket, slightly stunned.

Lu Mohai didn’t like fruit; he wasn’t interested in any fruit. He was surprised when he saw grapes in the yard when he first came in.

Aside from grapes, there were also common fruits like strawberries, passion fruit, and longan in the yard. Nothing too rare.

"I’ve grown to like it."

Lu Mohai hinted mysteriously, not explicitly explaining why.

He didn’t like fruit before. He slowly started to enjoy it as time passed.

Listening to the conversation between Xu Boyan and Lu Mohai, Lu Qingyi felt somehow drained. She quietly left the yard, confident that Boyan would talk about any important issues.

She didn’t know why, but Lu Mohai seemed so familiar to her. It’s as if she had seen him somewhere, but she just couldn’t remember where.

"Because of Ruan Qingyang, am I correct?"

Xu Boyan picked a grape, peeled it, then asked softly.

The grape was full of juice and tasted sweet.

Ruan Qingyang?

Lu Mohai was taken aback. He looked up in surprise at Xu Boyan. How did Xu Boyan know about Ruan Qingyang? Was this from Old Xu?

It’s strange. Xu Hang would not mention Ruan Qingyang out of the blue, especially after all these years.

"How do you know her?"

Ruan Qingyang disappeared twenty years ago, as if evaporated from the world. He searched for Ruan Qingyang for two full years, to no avail. He had no choice but to give up.

She was the girl he liked, the only one that moved his heart. He tried hard to pursue Ruan Qingyang, and before he could get her approval, Ruan Qingyang disappeared.

Because of his love for Ruan Qingyang, who was a workaholic, he continued to seek her out for work-related discussions time and time again.

From her initial indifference to her direct gaze, he had spent a lot of effort.

"Wen Wanyu."

Xu Boyan didn’t mention Lu Qingyi, he said the name Wen Wanyu instead.

Lu Mohai, of course, was not unfamiliar with the name, Wen Wanyu. He stared at Xu Boyan, "Have you met them?"

Them referring to Ruan Qingyang and Wen Wanyu.

Ruan Qingyang and Wen Wanyu were best friends, besides work Ruan Qingyang spent most of her time with Wen Wanyu, they might be together now.

Xu Boyan: "I only met Wen Wanyu."

Ruan Qingyang has been dead for nearly twenty years. He didn’t get a chance to meet her.

"Are they not together anymore?"

Lu Mohai lowered his gaze. He asked in a somewhat disappointed tone. His hand fell limply, bitter taste lingering in his heart.

He remained single because Ruan Qingyang lingered in his heart and he couldn’t forget her.

He became a recluse because, without Ruan Qingyang, the world seemed quite dull. There was nothing beautiful about it. Staying at home was just fine.

"Uncle Lu, didn’t you know?"

Xu Boyan asked.

Ruan Qingyang was just a doctor. It would be incredibly easy for someone of Lu Mohai’s standing to investigate a doctor. It made no sense for him not to know.

Unless Ruan Qingyang was more than just a doctor.

"She’s such a proud person. It’s understandable if she didn’t fancy me. I just don’t know what kind of person could catch her eye."

Lu Mohai pulled out a cigarette from his pocket. As he was about to light it, he realized that he had left his lighter in his other coat pocket.

He wondered if Ruan Qingyang was married now and what kind of person she married. Regardless, as long as Ruan Qingyang was happy, that would be the best.

He asked Xu Boyan, "Do you have a lighter?"

He didn’t smoke often, but he would crave a cigarette when he was feeling upset. He tried to quit smoking because Ruan Qingyang didn’t like the smell of cigarettes.

"Sorry, I quit smoking."

Xu Boyan casually replied. He promised Lu Qingyi they would quit smoking together and was determined to stick to it.

"Of course, you’ve changed since you got a girlfriend."

Lu Mohai laughed, a relieved laughter. He was glad his nephew found happiness.

"Uncle Lu, do you know about parthenogenesis?"

Xu Boyan didn’t tell Lu Mohai that Ruan Qingyan was no longer alive, he just asked.

If Lu Mohai had some connection with Ruan Qingyang, he would naturally know about parthenogenesis.

"Parthenogenesis? Boyan, do you believe in it?"

Lu Mohai raised an eyebrow, looking at Xu Boyan amusingly.

Could it be that his clever nephew also believed in such absurd things?

"So Uncle Lu, do you believe it?"

He was half in doubt, mainly interested in what Lu Mohai thought and what he knew about it.

"No, I don’t believe it."

Lu Mohai picked up a grape from the basket, peeled it, and popped it into his mouth, shaking his head.

Such absurdity, such a violation of common sense, Lu Mohai firmly believed they did not exist in this world.

"But Ruan Qingyang proved it, there are documents to confirm this."

Xu Boyan looked seriously into Lu Mohai’s eyes and said each word clearly.

Lu Mohai didn’t know. He didn’t believe in parthenogenesis. This surprised Xu Boyan.

Lu Mohai was visibly shocked when he looked up at Xu Boyan.
