When Lu Huaijing heard this, his heart felt a little stinging for no reason.
Why does he feel sorry for Gu Nanyan?
This feeling made Lu Huaijing feel even more guilty. He cleared his throat and then added: "If you don't want to go back, you can also take a stroll."
Next to this is a large wetland park.
Although Nan Yan was a little surprised, she still felt a little depressed after looking at her mother's photo.
The woman in the photo had a bright smile and bright eyes, which made Nan Yan feel even sadder.
So, mom, do you also hope that I can let go of my worries?
Nan Yan thought so, but her body had already given the most honest answer.
By the time she came to her senses, Lu Huaijing had already taken her to the park aside.
The fresh air and beautiful evening scenery made Nan Yan temporarily forget the sadness in his heart.
Lu Huaijing held her hand very naturally, and the two of them strolled along the path in the park, walking slowly forward along the path that marked each scene step by step.
"Auntie... why did she die?"
Lu Huaijing hesitated before asking.
Before this, he had never known about Gu Nanyan's past and family.
Nan Yan glanced at him in surprise and laughed: "How come you... why do you think of asking this?"
"After meeting Auntie, I wanted to know."
Lu Huaijing spoke softly, trying to make his reasons sound more legitimate: "Auntie, after all, she is grandpa's savior. Although I couldn't get back from the hospital in time when grandpa had the surgery, I am also curious, auntie. ...Why did you die so suddenly and so well?"
Yes, how could he die in good health?
A layer of ridicule appeared at the corner of Nan Yan's mouth. After thinking for a moment, he tried his best to speak in a calm tone:
"It was...an accident, a car accident."
She had no evidence and could only explain it as an "accident."
When Lu Huaijing heard this, he obviously had no doubts, but he just sighed a little and said: "That's really jealous of the talent."
After all, he was the one who saved the old man of the Lu family. If it weren't for his untimely death, his status in Nanchen would be very high now.
Nan Yan smiled a little sadly, and then said: "Actually, my mother has always been a cautious person. If... I didn't know, my father would already have someone outside, and there is another one who is only a few years younger than me. My sister won’t be depressed, let alone get into a car accident.”
Lu Huaijing frowned. Although he had vaguely known that Feng Peiyun's mother and daughter's method of ascending to power was not very clean, what he didn't expect was that it was such a common scene?
A chill flashed through his dark eyes, and when he thought of his mother, his voice also became tinged with chill: "These kind of people are all equally shameless!"
Back then, if Lu Weiyan and his son had not used the same method to gain power, his mother would not have committed suicide due to depression.
Thinking of this, Lu Huaijing unconsciously thought of Song Yihuan.
The way she looked depressed now also worried him.
If he had discovered earlier that his mother had the same symptoms, wouldn't everything have happened?
And the reason why he rushed forward desperately that day was because he thought of his mother's experience back then.
Nan Yan did not notice Lu Huaijing's mood swings, and just continued: "Actually, the Gu family is the property of grandpa and grandma. It's just that my dad...as the son-in-law, he behaved impeccably at first, which convinced the two old people. So, as soon as they passed away, my father stole my mother’s official seal and changed the company’s name.”
Nan Yan's heart ached even more. Her grandparents had worked hard all their lives just to get their daughter treated well.
But she didn't expect that even she couldn't escape Gu Lang's plan.
Thinking about it, this is why my mother fought for her last breath and asked to be in front of Mr. Lu.
The sadness in Nan Yan's eyes deepened, and she didn't even dare to think about what her mother looked like now.
With Gu Lang's character, it was very difficult to barely keep his mother alive.
Lu Huaijing didn't expect that things would turn around, so he clenched his fists.
You can even imagine how sad Gu Nanyan has been in the Gu family these years.
A daughter who doesn’t even have her own room, a person who is only thought of and used when she encounters problems...
How is it possible to be treated well?
It turns out that it is true that a girl will have no home after she gets married.
Lu Huaijing couldn't help but stretched out his hand and put his arm around Nan Yan's shoulders, trying his best to warm her with his own body temperature.
"What happened to my aunt reminds me of my aunt..."
Lu Huaijing said in a deep voice: "You probably don't know, but I also have an aunt."
Nan Yan shook her head. She was surprised that this man would take the initiative to talk about these past events with her.
"I only know that grandpa does have a daughter, but... I have never seen her."
She thought Aunt Lu had gone abroad.
"She's dead."
When Lu Huaijing said that, a layer of hatred clearly flashed in his dark eyes: "He was also killed by a man. My aunt spent all her family property to be with him, but within two years she came back from abroad with a pregnant belly. She said the man cheated on her."
He said, as if he felt the same way: "It's the same with my mother. They were all deceived by unlucky men and ended up like this."
Nan Yan's expression was dazed for a moment, and Xuanji also held his hand.
Lu Huaijing rarely calmed down immediately, but continued to say in a cold voice: "Grandpa loved my aunt very much, but she suffered a massive hemorrhage and died during childbirth, leaving a son to die."
Nanyan was also infected.
She comforted him sadly, and then asked in a low voice: "Then... my aunt's child...?"
"Maybe he's dead too!"
Lu Huaijing spoke coldly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Grandpa raised him until he was ten years old, and then he went abroad, saying he wanted to find his biological father. In my opinion, it would be better to die."
He gritted his teeth, the pain in the memory making his handsome face tighten.
"Nan Yan, do you know? After my mother passed away, it was my aunt who took care of me and was kind to me, but... in the end, she also left."
This was the first time Nan Yan saw Lu Huaijing like this, with a bit of anger but also unwillingness.
A man who never showed any vulnerability in front of her, but at this moment, his voice was full of anger and he said: "That man's child looked very similar to me when he was a child, Nan Yan, do you know how much I hate him?"
Lu Huaijing didn't know why he told Nan Yan these old stories.
He never even told Song Yihuan.
