Chapter 318 – From beginning to end, he hadn’t done anything wrong! (1)

Lu Shaoyan looked at Old Master Lu, who had died with a grievance, and quietly laughed.

“You two really are husband and wife. You both died with your eyes open. For her, it was because of her feelings for you. Old man, you really profited. Even as she was dying, she was thinking about you. Even in her dreams, she wanted to see you one more time. She must be waiting for you in the afterlife instead of moving onto her next life. If you see her, even if you make a half-hearted effort to coax her, you’ll probably win her back.”

Lu Shaoyan raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky. It was like a sign that heralded major changes. He inexplicably felt depressed. It felt hard to breathe, and he murmured, “My mom is so cheap. She was tormented for a lifetime because of a person like you. What a glutton for punishment.”

Lu Shaoyan was choked with emotions for a moment. His Adam’s Apple went up and down, and his voice gradually lowered.

“You raised me for ten years, but then you threw me away for ten years. People scolded me for being a b*stard child because of you. Your affection and compensation, what’s the use of it?” Lu Shaoyan sighed. “Do you think your affection after I return abroad is enough to compensate for the harm you’ve caused me?”

Lu Shaoyan looked at him and said through gritted teeth, “In your dreams! If you die, you die. I’ll never feel sad for you. I’ll never cry for you, much less fondly reminisce about you.”

Old Master Lu’s eyes still looked at him. Lu Shaoyan was reflected in those soulless eyes.

“Now that I think about it, you had enough glorious moments while you were alive, and there’ll be people to cry for you after your death. When the news comes out tomorrow, there’ll be many people to come by to offer their condolences and burn incense for you. Every year, there’ll be people to pay respect to you. There’ll be more people to remember you. Even if you died, you died splendidly. But my mom died all alone in the hospital. To this day, only the two of us know that she died. She’s so pitiful.”

Lu Shaoyan chattered on and simply sat down in front of Old Master Lu. He looked at his reflection in the old man’s eyes.

“Don’t look anymore. I won’t promise you,” Lu Shaoyan said, “I’m not going against Lu Beichuan. I’m going against your Lu Corporation. Rest assured, I won’t give up until Lu Corporation falls. Perhaps, the day that your Lu Corporation falls, I’ll go to your grave and burn incense to tell you the good news. I know that the thing you care about the most is Lu Corporation.”

Lu Shaoyan raised his hand and gently closed Old Master Lu’s eyes.

His hand touched the skin that still had residual warmth. Feeling that rough sensation, Lu Shaoyan slowly lowered his head.

His body trembled. Soon after, he put his head down on the bed. One hand desperately held the old man’s hand, and the other hand covered his eyes.

“Yanyan, don’t listen to your mom. No matter what you want to do when you grow up, Dad will support you! Even if you’re a wastrel, Dad will still let you become a second generation that’s the richest and most carefree!”

“Shaoyan, a man has to take responsibility when he makes a mistake. Wrong is wrong. There’s no excuse!”

“B*stard child! You’re just a b*stard child! How dare you enter the doors of the Lu family?! Get out! Listen carefully, anyone that dares to let him back in will be kicked out of the Lu family!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Shaoyan, dad was wrong back then. Dad apologizes to you. Come back, Dad will apologize for what happened back then, okay?”

“Yanyan... Promise Dad... Don’t...”

Those vivid memories came and went. The memories that he had thought he forgot appeared in his mind again.

All of those happy, hateful, humiliating memories. Everything in the past created the person he was today.

It wasn’t his fault!

From beginning to end, he hadn’t done anything wrong!

Through a crack between the window and the window frame, a gust of wind blew the curtain upward.

A sob forcefully came out. Lu Shaoyan’s forehead rested on the back of Old Master Lu’s hand. His body violently trembled. Unable to bear it, he wept.
