Lu Qian lowered his eyes.
How does it feel?
From the time Qin Miaoyu saved him until her eighteenth birthday, he had always thought that he was just grateful to Qin Miaoyu.
If it weren't for Qin Miaoyu, whether he could escape smoothly would have been a big problem.
When he heard that Qin Miaoyu might not want to see him, he stopped appearing in front of her on purpose.
I just make regular trips to Nancheng a few times a year to see how she is doing.
Unexpectedly, he learned that Qin Miaoyu liked to eat fruits, especially strawberries, so he asked the manor under his name to grow them and send them to the Qin family when they were mature.
Over the past few years, he had known Qin Miaoyu's general preferences, but apart from sending fruits to Qin Miaoyu, he could not do much more openly, fearing that the Qin family would force Qin Miaoyu to have a relationship with the Lu family again.
Although he didn't mind at all and was even happy to see Qin Miaoyu come and have more contact with him, Qin Miao wouldn't like it, so he wouldn't do it.
Then she discovered that Qin Miaoyu was being bullied and used Liang Sixuan as an excuse to make her dare not bring anyone to cause trouble for Qin Miaoyu anymore.
In fact, he is not a very emotional person, otherwise he would not be able to successfully take over the Lu family. However, the experience of traveling between Jingcheng and Nancheng in those years is indeed as the saying goes, secret love belongs to one person. The war was in turmoil, but he didn't realize what he was thinking at that time.
Until that birthday party.
He went with the invitation.
In fact, he had received many invitations from the Qin family, but he had never been there, but he heard that the eighteenth birthday was very important, so he took the gift he prepared and went to the Qin Hotel in person to attend Qin Miaoyu's birthday. birthday party.
To this day, he still remembers his happy and nervous mood at that time.
Finally, he can appear in front of Qin Miaoyu, but he doesn't know if she still remembers him, and he doesn't know if she will like the gift he specially prepared for her.
And he also vividly remembered that as soon as he arrived at the hotel banquet hall with gifts, he heard the parents of the Qin family announcing the engagement between Qin Miaoyu and Jiang Anqi from the Jiang family in Nancheng.
At that moment, there was a roar in his ears. Father Qin's mouth on the stage opened and closed to speak, but he could not hear a word clearly.
He turned his eyes to Qin Miaoyu and saw her holding Jiang Anqi's arm with a gentle smile on her face.
Lu Qian asked: "Were you willing to get engaged to Jiang Anqi back then, right?"
Qin Miaoyu nodded. No matter how far it developed later, at that time, she really had no dissatisfaction.
That's good, Lu Qian thought, at least there is one thing he is not so self-righteous about.
He answered Qin Miaoyu's question truthfully: "I was very sad and annoyed at the time."
Qin Miaoyu wondered: "Why do you feel upset?"
"Because I didn't understand my feelings for you until that moment. My cousin and my mother obviously made fun of you, but I didn't think it was like or love."
He's not one to sit still.
If he had understood his feelings for Qin Miaoyu earlier, he would have taken the initiative, but he didn't find out until the birthday party that it was really too late.
Because Qin Miaoyu happily accepted the marriage, it was impossible for him to do anything else based on Qin Miaoyu's ideas.
If he had discovered his feelings for Qin Miaoyu before the engagement between the two families was completed, there would not have been so many disturbances in the process.
However, time cannot be turned back, and there are no ifs.
He could only leave alone, without even being able to formally meet Qin Miaoyu again.
But there is no need for Qin Miaoyu to know this.
Qin Miaoyu recalled the scene of her eighteenth birthday party, but she did not find any memory of Lu Qian in her memory.
and……
"Why did you come to my birthday party?"
Because the Qin family is not well-known in Nancheng, the people who come to her birthday party are basically those who have frequent contacts with each other. Furthermore, the Qin family will send invitations to the upper-class families with whom they have some interactions, but almost all of them don't. What an echo.
Even the upper-class local aristocratic families in Nancheng couldn't match him, let alone someone with the status of the Lu family in Jingcheng.
So, why did Lu Qian show up at her birthday party?
She remembered that the birthday party was held at the most prestigious hotel in Nancheng, and she and Jiang Anqi were getting engaged. Qin Shengyi and Su Yaqing thought it was a big occasion, and in order to fit the "class" of this big occasion, they specially ordered You can only enter with an invitation.
Lu Qian said slowly: "Because, the Jingcheng Lu family received an invitation from the Qin family."
"How is that possible? At that time, the Qin family didn't even dare to hand over invitations to the Liang family. They had no contact with the Lu family, so it was even less possible for them to hand over invitations!"
Lu Qian raised his head and looked at Qin Miaoyu: "We have met, otherwise why would I know you?"
Qin Miaoyu was instantly stuck. Yes, why did Lu Qian know her?
She only knew that Lu Qi'an had liked her for a long time, but she never knew why Lu Qi'an knew her.
"What's the intersection?"
"You saved me when you were twelve."
"It's you!"
Qin Miaoyu naturally remembered this incident, because the situation was very urgent at the time, and she later heard that if it were delayed any longer, the kidnappers might break up the fight.
However, the family that was rescued only appeared once, and that was the only time she and the rescued person officially met. It was when she was in a very bad mood. Apart from remembering that he was a very good-looking person, , I have no impression of his face. Is it Lu Qian?
"It's me. If you hadn't saved me back then, I might be gone now."
Qin Miaoyu shook her head: "I just called the police at that time. In fact, I didn't do anything more. It was the policeman who saved you."
After saying that, she said angrily: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Of course, he couldn't have said it earlier. If it was revealed from the beginning that Qin Miaoyu had saved him, then no matter what he did, Qin Miaoyu would only think that he was repaying his kindness, and wouldn't he be even more passive?
After hearing Lu Qian's explanation, Qin Miaoyu's smile was a little stiff. She would indeed be like this.
For a moment, Qin Miaoyu felt a little regretful: "It's a pity that I didn't see him at that time!"
If she had never met Lu Qian again, and the two of them had not experienced this, she would naturally not feel pity. After all, she did not even know that such a person existed, but now, after experiencing so many things...
They had known each other since they were twelve years old, but their second official meeting was not until ten years later. During this time, she had no impression of Lu Qian.
Thinking of the current relationship between the two, she even felt a little regretful and became more curious about the past.
Lu Qian did not hide anything. When Qin Miaoyu asked him anything, he told the truth, but he would not deliberately mention things that he felt were unnecessary.
