Chapter 636: Cry If You Want
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
These were just a few words on a screen, but when the people who had seen it for themselves said it, it felt real.
Lu Ning did not know how they had survived the first few years.
And at that time, she was not by their side. She was by Old Master I-RNs side and did not have to worry about living the stable life they wanted…
Zhou Lin looked at her, seemingly able to sense what she was thinking. “Ningning, don’t feel sad or guilty about it. Your father told me before: it’s his greatest consolation that you were doing well back then.”
Lu Nings tears fell onto the back of her hand.
The back of her hand hurt from the burning tears.
Lu Ning looked as Zhou Lin wiped her tears. “Thank you, Uncle Zhou. I understand.’
Zhou Lin looked at her and sighed. He knew that she was someone who valued relationships, so he only patted her shoulder and did not say anything else.
When Lu Ning and Lu Bai walked out, it was already eight in the evening.
Huo Jinyan was so worried that he wanted to go in a few times, but he did not know where Lu Ning and the others were, so he could only wait outside.
Now that she had come out, Huo Jinyan immediately noticed that something was wrong with Lu Ning. He could clearly see that her eyes were red and she was feeling a little down.
After getting into the car, the two of them did not speak. Lu Bai t s appearance was also very different from when he came.
Huo Jinyan did not know what they had experienced inside, but he could clearly feel their sadness. He could not help but frown slightly.
He started the car smoothly and drove towards their home.
Lu Ning and Lu Bai seemed to have no strength left as they slouched in their seats.
When they reached the alley outside their house, neither of them reacted. Huo Jinyan did not disturb them; after parking the car, he got out and sat in the back.
He leaned over and let Lu Ning lean on his arm.
Lu Ning did not move.
After a long time, Lu Bai moved. He slowly opened the car door and got out.
Before he left, he said, “Make sure she gets home safely.”
Then, he shut the car door and left.
Huo Jinyan retracted his gaze and looked down at Lu Ning. He raised his hand and patted her head gently. “It’s okay. Cry if you want.”
His voice was soft and gentle.
Lu Nings eyes instantly turned red. She turned her head and pressed her forehead against his shoulder. She buried her face in his clothes, and began to wail.
Her fingers gripped Huo Jinyan’s sleeve so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Even though she was crying, she was still trying her best to suppress her emotions.
Huo Jinyan gulped, and an equally uncomfortable feeling enveloped him.
He did not know what was wrong with Lu Ning, but he could sense her emotions and his heart ached for her.
He raised his hand and held Lu Nings hand. Then, he turned around and held her in his arms.
Lu Nings tears soaked the clothes on his chest.
Huo Jinyan patted her back again and again, letting her feel that he was beside her, accompanying her so that she could vent all her emotions without restraint.
Lu Bai dragged his legs weakly and walked back. Looking at the stairs in front of him, he trembled and sighed. In the end, he turned around and leaned against the wall, his hands fumbling through his pockets.
He wanted to smoke, but he had quit smoking for a long time, so there were no cigarettes on him.
This insufferably arrogant young man, at this moment, was like a child who could not find his candy. His eyes instantly turned red, and his body slowly slid to the corner of the wall.. He hugged his knees, and tears flowed out of his eyes and onto his clothes, dyeing splotches on them…
