As soon as Ye Haoran walked to the front desk, he was blocked by the girl at the front desk: "Sir, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Lucy."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
The office phone number contacted the financial director's office. After receiving permission, the front desk girl took Ye Haoran towards the inside of the company.
The office space is not very spacious, and the workstations are not large, but it is very busy.
The people working here are all young people, it is a newly founded company, and everyone is full of energy and ambition.
They all dream of getting a promotion, salary increase, listing the company, and getting employee shares to achieve a class leap.
Everyone is equal before opportunities. If you make good choices and work hard, anyone can succeed.
Ye Haoran is an exception.
The front desk knocked on the door of Lucy's office, and Lucy's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Ye Haoran nodded to the front desk to express his thanks.
Then he walked into Lucy's office.
Her office is not big, just enough space for a desk and a few chairs in the front and back.
Lucy raised her head and looked at the person, startled and said: "Haoran, why are you here?"
Ye Haoran said with a bright smile on his face: "I'll take you home."
Lucy looked at her watch in confusion, checked the time again and asked, "It's just 10 o'clock. Why are you going home? I'll go home after get off work. You must be too anxious!"
Lucy didn't react yet.
Ye Haoran added: "Go back to another home."
Lucy was stunned for a moment and didn't understand at first. Then she was a little surprised and asked doubtfully: "You mean???"
Ye Haoran smiled and nodded.
"Now?"
"It's now!"
Ye Haoran has to do what he just decided last night today, and Lucy is somewhat unprepared.
Especially when it comes to setting off, she is even more withdrawn.
Ye Haoran said: "We will see you sooner or later. Avoiding is not the way. Go and ask for leave."
Lucy just hesitated for a moment, then nodded and went out to ask for leave.
Sometimes, people just need others to give them some reasons and courage. Without Ye Haoran, Lucy would not have dared to take this step.
After Lucy came back, she simply packed up her supplies and followed Ye Haoran out of the company.
"Should I buy something?"
"No, I'm ready. Let's go directly."
Lucy's hometown is not close to the Magic City, but it's not too far either. It can be reached in the evening by setting off at noon.
Although driving there is not the fastest, with a driver it is not too tiring for Ye Haoran and Lucy, and there are so many gifts, so they don't have to carry them around.
Lucy was still a little excited when she just set out on the road. As a child who ran away from home and wandered outside, without the care and love of her parents, the experience of growing up would be more enjoyable.
Fortunately, Lucy was lucky enough to find where she belonged.
However, as the distance continued to shrink, Lucy's heart began to tighten.
Nervousness and panic filled his heart, and he could only seek some comfort from Ye Haoran.
The shackles in the heart have been tied up for so many years and are not easy to break free. All Ye Haoran can do is let Lucy face it bravely.
The only way to feel relieved is by Lucy herself.
The sky was getting dark, and the Maybach was still speeding on the highway.
When they entered the small county town, Lucy's palms began to sweat nervously.
"Lucy, I'm here, don't be afraid."
"Um!"
Lucy just responded quietly.
The car slowly stopped in front of an old building, and the driver got out of the car and started carrying gifts from the trunk.
Ye Haoran hugged Lucy in the car, giving her final comfort and encouragement.
After all the gifts were moved out of the car, Ye Haoran took Lucy down.
Standing in front of the building, Lucy looked up at a bright light upstairs. Ye Haoran didn't make a sound and just stayed with her quietly.
After a long time, Lucy felt relaxed.
What she was afraid of was not the meeting, but the journey home.
"Haoran, come up with me."
"good."
The driver followed behind with a lot of gift boxes, and Ye Haoran also took the remaining few and walked upstairs.
Old-fashioned building, no elevator, only narrow corridors.
Lucy stood in front of the door and knocked on the door without hesitation.
"Who?"
Lucy didn't respond. She didn't know how to respond.
As the iron door slowly opened, the appearance of a neighbor's aunt appeared in front of several people.
The aunt looked at the person at the door and didn't react for a moment.
The familiar face only appeared in dreams. Auntie raised her hand, as if she wanted to feel if it was an illusion.
Lucy looked at the aunt next door with a smile and shouted: "Mom!"
"Stop balance? It's really a balance stop!"
As soon as the two greeted each other, Lucy's smile disappeared from her face.
When she looked at her mother's protruding belly, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Lucy's mother subconsciously held her belly, unable to hide the embarrassment on her face.
Ye Haoran patted Lucy on the back and said, "Let's talk after we enter the house."
"Yes, yes, come in, come in."
Lucy's mother quickly stepped aside to let a few people in first.
The driver took the gift boxes into the house one after another, then turned and went downstairs, returned to the car and waited.
"Why buy so many things? I just want people to come back."
Just as Ye Haoran and Lucy entered the house, another little old man walked out of the bedroom.
Lucy put on a smile again and shouted: "Dad!"
Lucy's father also looked at Lucy in surprise. After the shock, he just nodded and said nothing.
After Ye Haoran and Lucy's mother exchanged greetings, the room returned to calm. No one spoke first, and the atmosphere began to solidify.
The old couple was planning to practice a trumpet. Thinking from Lucy's perspective, of course they couldn't accept it. They made it clear that they didn't want to recognize her as their daughter.
But on the other hand, it is understandable that the old couple wants someone to take care of them until they die.
It was not convenient for Ye Haoran to speak first, nor was he prepared to do so.
It was Lucy who opened her mouth first and said to the old couple: "Mom and Dad, I came back this time to make it clear what happened a few years ago. The man named Li Xun has gone to prison and received the punishment he deserves. Although it’s a bit late, I hope you two will stop blaming me.”
Lucy's father opened his mouth, but couldn't say what he wanted to say.
The old couple's initial doubts about Lucy hurt her a lot, and even said that if Lucy had more self-esteem, she wouldn't be like this.
This is also the real reason why Lucy ran away.
"Mom and Dad, I have lived a good life these years. I am studying abroad, have a good job, and have a boyfriend."
"The Exotic Land Development of Vegetable-Growing Skeletons"
He looked at Ye Haoran and introduced: "This is my boyfriend Ye Haoran. He is a lawyer, the most powerful lawyer in Shanghai. It is my luck to meet him. You don't have to worry about anything. As long as you... you two have a good life." .”
He raised his head with a smile and choked up the whole sentence.
The face is smiling and tears are flowing.
Ye Haoran hugged Lucy and silently comforted her soul.
Lucy's parents looked at Lucy with tears in their eyes, and their hearts were filled with annoyance. They had personally forced their daughter away.
Under the advice of neighbors and relatives, the couple did not choose to believe their daughter, but joined the crusade against Lucy's misbehavior.
Now hearing this ending, how could the couple not regret it.
