The next day was a Saturday, and both Lu Jingce and Shen Yansheng rarely slept in.

Who knew that early in the morning, Xia Xiaoyue knocked on the door outside and shouted loudly, "Brother Ce, are you awake? It's time for breakfast."

Shen Yansheng had a headache hearing this, so she pulled up the quilt to cover her head and continued to sleep.

Lu Jingce also had a headache. He closed his eyes, raised his hand and pressed his temples. He endured the upset, got up from the bed patiently, and put on his clothes before walking to the door to open the door.

Standing outside the door, Xia Xiaoyue smiled when she saw Lu Jingce, and said, "Brother Ce has breakfast. I woke up early today to go out to buy vegetables. You are just recovering now, so you need to eat something nutritious. I stewed it. A cup of chicken soup, you can try it later."

Lu Jingce said, "Someone does the kitchen work, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xia Xiaoyue said with a smile: "How can the servant be careful. Besides, you haven't eaten what I cooked for a long time."

Lu Jingce sighed silently and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Xia Xiaoyue smiled and said, "It's fine. Then come down quickly."

"Yeah." Lu Jingce responded and closed the bedroom door again.

Turning around, he saw Shen Yansheng leaning on the head of the bed and looking at him with a displeased look on his face.

He walked over, leaned over and held Shen Yansheng's cheek, lowered his head and kissed her lips, and said, "Sleep a little longer."

Shen Yansheng has been awakened, how can she still fall asleep now.

After staring at Lu Jingce for a long time, I knew that I couldn't blame him. In the end, I just sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, I'll be going home in a while, and it's been a long time since I went back to see my parents."

Since the accident, she has not been home to see her parents for almost two months, and she has not dared to tell her parents about the car accident. I'm also glad that my parents don't have anyone who knows her anymore. I don't think my parents have watched the news, so I don't know what happened to her a while ago.

The last time I called and asked her if she was busy recently, why didn't she go back for so long.

Lu Jingce heard Shen Yansheng saying he was going home and asked, "Do you want me to accompany you back?"

Shen Yansheng was stunned when she heard the words, she looked at Lu Jingce, hesitated, and said, "No need, I haven't told my parents about us yet, and they are definitely not mentally prepared to take you back suddenly."

Lu Jingce raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her deeply, "Then when are you going to take me back?"

This question was enough to stop Shen Yansheng.

In fact, she didn't know when to take Lu Jingce back, or even if she should tell her parents.

She was more or less worried in her heart, if Lu Jingce's first love really came back, she would definitely leave here. Now tell my parents, what if they get lost?

She thought for a while, looked at Lu Jingce, and said, "Would it be a while longer?"

Lu Jingce stared at her for a long while before nodding and saying, "Okay."

Shen Yansheng didn't eat breakfast at home, and went out first after taking a shower and changing clothes.

When Xia Xiaoyue saw that Shen Yansheng was gone, she couldn't contain her joy in her heart. After breakfast, he went upstairs with a plate of peeled fruit, stood at the door of Lu Jingce's study, raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

Lu Jingce sat at the desk and looked at the documents. Hearing the sound, he raised his eyes and glanced at the door.

Xia Xiaoyue smiled and asked, "Can I come in, Brother Ce?"

Lu Jingce gave a light "um", then lowered his head and continued to read the document.

Xia Xiaoyue put the served fruit on Lu Jingce's desk. Seeing that Lu Jingce was working, she didn't make a sound to disturb him. She looked around, saw a room full of books, and couldn't help but look around.

Looking at it, I suddenly remembered some past events and felt a little emotional. I turned around and said to Lu Jingce, "Brother Ce, I think about the past, and it's a pity for you. You studied so hard back then, and you finally got into Beicheng No. 1 Middle School. , but grandma fell ill at that time, which made you..."

"It's been so many years, what are you talking about?" Lu Jingce's tone was light, and he didn't care about the past at all.

But Xia Xiaoyue remembered that during the summer vacation of the year she graduated from junior high school, the postman put the admission notice of Beicheng No. 1 Middle School to the town post office.

The post office called the village and told Lu Jingce to get the notice.

With such a long distance from the village to the town, Lu Jingce was reluctant to sit in the car in order to save money for tuition fees.

At that time, everyone in the village was happy for him. After all, it took many years for their village to pass the exam.

But during the summer vacation, my grandmother fell ill. Before Lu Jingce could be happy about being admitted to high school, he ran to the city to work non-stop.

He took a summer job in the city, and when he came back, he made a decision that everyone regretted. He is no longer in high school.

Xia Xiaoyue stood in front of the bookcase, looking at Lu Jingce who was sitting in front of the spacious desk, looking at the documents indifferently, and suddenly realized that Lu Jingce was not the Lu Jingce she knew when she was a child.

To be more precise, in fact, many years ago, she discovered that Lu Jingce was not the Lu Jingce of his childhood.

No one knows what he has experienced over the years, and no one knows how much he has paid for his achievements and status today.

A few years ago, she happened to hear from her former classmates that Lu Jingce had played underground black boxing abroad in the early years, and he earned his first pot of gold and returned from abroad. With Dongfeng, and with his extraordinary courage and wisdom, his worth has doubled countless times within half a year, and then he began to walk steadily, and gradually reached his current position.

Xia Xiaoyue didn't know whether it was true or not, and she didn't dare to ask Lu Jingce about the experience of fighting underground black boxing abroad. But Lu Jingce did disappear for a few years, and it wasn't until he was twenty-three years old that he returned to everyone's sight.

Xia Xiaoyue didn't know why such Lu Jingce liked a woman like Shen Yansheng. She clearly remembered that Lu Jingce should have had a girl he liked before.

On the day Lu Jingce was about to leave Jiangcheng, she accidentally saw a registration photo of a girl in his book.

Thinking of this, she walked back to the desk, cautiously, and couldn't help but say, "Brother Ce, I saw a picture of a girl in your book before."

Hearing this, Lu Jingce couldn't help but pause when he was flipping through the documents.

After a moment, he finally raised his head and looked at Xia Xiaoyue.

Xia Xiaoyue was actually a little afraid of Lu Jingce now, especially when he stared at her so expressionlessly, she unconsciously pursed her lower lip and explained, "I didn't mean to rummage through your things, it was you who were packing things in the room at the time, I was thinking of helping you clean up, but when I picked up that book, I stumbled across it."

Lu Jingce stared at her calmly, "Then what?"

Xia Xiaoyue gathered up her courage and said, "I found that Miss Shen looks a bit like the girl in the photo. Do you miss that girl so much that you are with Shen Yansheng?"

Hearing this, Lu Jingce's face turned cold. He looked at Xia Xiaoyue and said coldly, "I didn't realize you were so nosy before."

Xia Xiaoyue was taken aback.

Seeing Lu Jingce's icy face, she suddenly blushed.

It was only then that she really realized that Lu Jingce was usually kind to her, but he was probably still thinking about his old love when he was a child. Once he touches his bottom line, he can still treat her coldly.

Xia Xiaoyue's words just now really touched Lu Jingce's bottom line. He ran out of patience with her, and when he spoke again, his words became cruel, saying, "I know what you think. But Xia Xiaoyue, I don't like you, not before, not now, and in the future. Neither will it."

Xia Xiaoyue is a girl in the end, she was so cruelly rejected by the person she liked, and tears fell all at once.

Lu Jingce was unmoved. He opened the drawer, took out a photo from a book, and put it in front of Xia Xiaoyue, "Is this the photo you're talking about?"

Xia Xiaoyue held back her tears and looked down.

It was a one-inch registration photo. In the photo, the girl had a bright smile, and she really looked like Shen Yansheng.

Xia Xiaoyue picked up the photo subconsciously and couldn't help but say, "It's true..."

When she said this, she suddenly stopped. Her eyes fell on the photo, a small red mole under the girl's eyes.

She was suddenly stunned.

Only then did she realize that the girl in this photo was actually Shen Yansheng.

Shen Yansheng also has an identical, small red mole under his right eye.

It was only then that she suddenly realized that she herself was the most ridiculous person.

It was also at this time that she realized that Lu Jingce was not indifferent to everyone, he also had a heart, and he could love someone for ten years.

Lu Jingce put away the photo, looked at Xia Xiaoyue, and said, "I'll have someone arrange a hotel for you. If you want to stay in Beicheng for a few more days, I'll send someone to show you around."

Xia Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "No, I want to go home."

Lu Jingce nodded and said, "Alright, I'll send someone to take you to the airport."
