Even the Old Master was stunned when he saw his actions.
Lu Ning looked at the Old Master, and her throat moved. For the longest time, she was unable to call out to him countless times.
The grandfather and granddaughter had not seen each other for several months.
Everything seemed to have changed a little.
The Old Master looked at her and did not say anything. He raised his hand and called someone over.
Someone came down from upstairs and handed a big bag to Lu Ning.
“Young Mistress.”
Lu Ning took it, and eyed its contents.
It was neatly filled with the trophies she had won with Linlang in all those competitions.
She thought that all these would have been thrown away on the day she left.
It was true that they had all been thrown away, but the Old Master had someone find them all, and personally wiped all the trophies clean.
Lu Nings eyes were red, her tears falling on the trophies.
She looked up at the Old Master.
The two of them looked at each other without saying anything.
No one knew how to speak, or what to say.
Every word seemed to be difficult.
In the end, it was the Old Master who looked at her, his voice trembling imperceptibly. “You should go.”
Lu Ning looked at him with tears in her eyes.
She handed the bag in her hand to Huo Jinyan.
The blanket and his coat all fell to the ground.
She bent over, and slowly, she knelt down in the direction of the Old Master.
She knelt on both knees and kowtowed to him.
Their tears splattered and stained the floor.
The two of them knew very well—with this kowtow, there would really be nothing between them anymore.
This kowtow would truly carve out two worlds, drawing a clear line between the two of them. It signified that she really would have nothing to do with the Lù family anymore!
Huo Jinyan helped her up and draped the blanket over her again.
Lu Ning turned around, and left.
Huo Jinyan looked at the Old Master. “I’m keeping that blanket. Get the compensation from the Huo family.”
As he turned around, he was stopped by the Old Master.
“Mr. Huo, you want…”
Huo Jinyan seemed to know what he was going to say and said bluntly, “I’ll do better than all of you, better than anyone else.”
He was spirited and his tone was firm. The Old Master looked at his departing figure and felt much more at ease.
Yet, his eyes were red.
Someone approached him and looked at him. “Old Master…”
He hesitated to push him away.
However, the Old Master looked in the direction of the door and muttered, “She’s not even willing to call me Grandpa anymore…”
The surroundings fell silent. No one dared to speak.
Huo Jinyan caught up with Lu Ning and pulled the blanket over her.
“I’ll send you home.”
Lu Ning looked at him and nodded.
Lu Qing stood not far away and watched her get into Huo Jinyan’s car. He did not say anything or disturb them, only watching them leave quietly. He sat in the car for a while, looking in the direction of the Lt house. Ten minutes later, he returned the way he came.
Lu Ning seemed to have lost all her strength. She leaned against the car window and gazed out, her eyes unfocused.
Huo Jinyan looked at her worriedly.
“Lu Ning…”
He called out to her.
Lu Ning took a few seconds to respond.
“Teacher Huo.”
Huo Jinyan quickly replied, “Yes.”
She did not turn around or move. She leaned against the car window and said softly, “Do you know why Grandpa gave me this name?
Without waiting for Huo Jinyan to answer, she continued, “Because when my parents got married, they didn’t like each other. Even after I was born, it still wasn’t peaceful at home. Grandpa hoped that the household would become more peaceful after I was born, so he named me ‘Ning’ for peace. But after I was born, they wouldn’t even go home…” As she spoke, she suddenly smiled..
