Qin Yunshuang walked into the main hall in a daze. Old Master Lu was very satisfied to see the love and deep disappointment in her eyes.

He smiled and waved at her, “Yunshuang, come here quickly. Let me see if you’ve become more beautiful after so many years.”

Qin Yunshuang pulled herself together and walked over. She called out with great difficulty, “Grandpa Lu.”

The old man’s lips curled up to form an incomprehensible smile.

“Yunshuang, Mingxiu got into a car accident. As he hasn’t found the culprit, it’s inevitable that he’ll be in a bad mood. Don’t take it to heart.”

She smiled with difficulty.

“Grandpa Lu, I’m not angry with him. I’m just angry with myself.”

She couldn’t help but wonder if it was right to leave without saying goodbye back then.

The old man cleared his throat and said, “I heard that in your circle, there are many people who fall in love with each other because of acting?”

Qin Yunshuang immediately understood.

If they could shoot the same movie, they would have a lot of time together.

Then, she would be able to explain herself.

Thinking of this, the gloominess and worry in his eyes dissipated a lot.

At noon, Lu Zhengqing returned to the old mansion. He was worried that Mingxiu would quarrel with his grandfather, so he rushed back after the meeting. However, he found that Lu Mingxiu was not there at all. Only Qin Yunshuang was talking and laughing with the old man.

Lu Zhengqing’s face darkened when he saw this.

His grandfather had actually lied to him. Didn’t he say that he would only ask about Mingxiu’s injuries? Why did he ask Qin Yunshuang to come?

Even though he was very displeased, he did not show it at all. He only went forward and shouted, “Grandpa…”

The old man seemed to be in a good mood when he saw Lu Zhengqing. He even had a faint smile on his lips.

“Zhengqing, you’re here just in time. I remember the Sikong family sent an invitation to the banquet, right?”

Lu Zhengqing frowned slightly, but he still nodded.

“Yes.”

The old man cleared his throat and said, “Then let Mingxiu go.”

After he finished speaking, he even gave Qin Yunshuang a meaningful look.

Qin Yunshuang understood the old man’s meaning. The Qin family had also received the invitation from the Sikong family.

If she and Lu Mingxiu were to appear at the Sikong family’s banquet at the same time, it would be a scene of the century that she had not seen in a long time. Just thinking about this scene made her heart beat rapidly.

Lu Zhengqing’s deep eyes darted between the old man and Qin Yunshuang. His dark eyes were like whirlpools, but his expression did not change.

“Alright,” he said, then turned around and left.

The old man didn’t stop him.

***

When Lu Mingxiu returned to Dijing Manor, he realized that Su Qian was not inside the manor. The servants had no idea where she had gone.

Everyone was envious of Dijing Manor’s grandeur, but in his eyes, it was nothing more than a beautiful golden cage that imprisoned him.

In the past, he didn’t have many feelings for this place, but now that he heard that Su Qian wasn’t around, he felt a little lonely.

For the first time, he asked the servant to bring him a few bottles of wine.

***

That night, Su Qian returned to Dijing Manor, and the housekeeper hurriedly went up to her.

“Miss Su, it’s great that you’re finally back.”

During her stay at Dijing Manor, the butler had been very polite to her. She stopped and asked gently, “Is there something?”

The butler looked at Su Qian as if she was his savior.

He could tell that in this manor, other than Young Master Feng, this young lady was the only one who could persuade the young master.

“Young Master locked himself in his room and drank the whole afternoon. Miss Su, please try to persuade him.”

“I thought he hated the taste of alcohol?” Su Qian furrowed her brows.

The butler didn’t understand either, but he knew that his young master was always in a bad mood every time he returned to the old mansion.

“Miss Su, the young master returned to the old mansion today. The relationship between the old master and the young master is not very good…”

The butler didn’t finish his sentence. After all, it wasn’t his place to interfere between the old master and the young master.

Everyone had some secrets in their hearts that should not be touched, and she was not too interested in those secrets. The butler did not continue, and she did not ask further.

“I can try to help, but I can’t promise anything,” she simply replied.

The butler looked at her with tears of gratitude.

She came to his room. Recently, she had been sleeping in the guest room. The sofa in his room was comfortable, but his presence was too great.

She often suffered from insomnia, and she did not want to have dark circles under her eyes every day, which would affect her appearance.

She knocked on the door a few times, but no one answered.

She hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open.

The windows in the room were open, and the smell of alcohol was not strong. Instead, there was a faint fragrance.

From her angle, she could see that Lu Mingxiu was holding a glass of wine and was about to put it into his mouth. A few drops slipped from the corner of his lips and fell into his chest. It was very alluring.

She had never known that a person could drink and yet be so breathtaking.

Lu Mingxiu sensed someone standing at the door. He turned around and saw Su Qian. His lips unconsciously curved into a smile.

“Are you here because you’re concerned about me?”

She took a few steps forward, crossed her arms, and leaned against the wall casually.

“You’ve been drinking all afternoon. The butler is very worried about you.”

“What about you? Are you worried?”

She was silent for a while and did not answer him. Her heart was conflicted. Occasionally, she would stretch her rationality and emotions to the extreme, although most of the time, her rationality prevailed.

Her silence was the best answer.

Lu Mingxiu was furious. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, forcing her face to rest on his warm chest.

“Don’t move. I don’t know how to do anything. Just let me hold you for a while. ”

Su Qian tried to push him away. She could feel the strength and heat of his body, and she couldn’t push him away for a while.

He seemed to be drunk, but also very sober.

To say that he was very clear-headed, it was that he was as skilled as ever when he acted like a rascal.

She said he was drunk because his face had always been like a piece of frosted glass, making it impossible to see clearly. She could only see his indifferent and distant face. At this moment, for the first time, she saw a crack in the glass, and from the crack, his true inner feelings were revealed.

His loneliness, uneasiness, and fragility.

She was not a nosy person, but at this moment, she still said, “In this world, no one will ever come to save you. Only you can save yourself.”

Lu Mingxiu’s arm tightened a little, holding her firmly in his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his arms.

“What if I insist on forcing myself?”

“Then, you will only fall into a land of eternal damnation.”

He was the only one who could resolve all the karma in the world.
