Chapter 790 Lu Shichu’s Side Story Part 5
However, Lu Shichu's last sentence struck a chord in his heart.
He genuinely thought Cheng Qiulu was a nice person.
Lu Shichu had watched Su Ziyue grow up. His assistant was younger than Su Ziyue and attended one of the top universities in the country. Among his batch of graduate students, he was the most outstanding and highly intelligent but lacked a bit of emotional intelligence.
With his rich life experiences, Lu Shichu could easily discern the changes in the young assistant's emotions.
As expected, in the days that followed, the assistant would rush to the door whenever he had a moment.
As time passed, he would be the fastest one to leave when it was the end of the workday.
Lu Shichu stood in the corridor, gazing through the window as he watched the assistant open the car door for Cheng Qiulu. The two of them chatted and laughed as they drove away.
He couldn't help but smile. The vibrancy of youthful life and love was always a sight to behold.
As for himself, he couldn't feel that vitality or love anymore. He was content with observing others.
He thought it was time for him to move back to his place. Starting tomorrow, Cheng Qiulu might still come, but she wouldn't be waiting for him anymore.
Lu Shichu changed his clothes, grabbed his car keys, and strolled leisurely to the parking lot.
As he drove past the supermarket, he decided to go in and buy some groceries.
These days, he appeared busy yet fulfilled, all because he dedicated every minute to something meaningful.
He devoted his energy to conducting experiments, carefully selected a box of fresh pork, and then put effort into preparing a hearty dinner.
In doing so, he felt that life still held plenty of meaningful things.
As he returned to his residential area, he parked the car in the garage and carried the bags into the building. There, he noticed two familiar figures standing nearby.
One step, two steps, three steps...
He couldn't pretend not to have seen them.
He reluctantly looked up, his gaze briefly passing over Qin Muchen and Su Ziyue before averting his eyes.
Su Ziyue was the first to speak. "Are you off work now?"
She held a small bag in her hand, clad in a camel-colored cashmere coat, with a smile directed at him.
However, beneath the smile, he could sense her uneasiness.
He felt the same way too.
"Yeah," he replied casually from about two meters away and began walking toward them.
Standing next to her, Qin Muchen remained tall and imposing.
He glanced at Lu Shichu's leg before shifting his gaze away.
Lu Shichu was still undergoing rehabilitation. Although rainy days brought some pain, the dry and cold weather in the city allowed him to manage as long as he kept warm.
With an indifferent expression, Qin Muchen asked, "Aren't you going to invite us to your place?"
His tone seemed almost like he was asking a stranger to step aside.
However, if one observed closely, a flicker of discomfort could be seen in Qin Muchen's eyes.
Qin Muchen wasn't a generous person. Although he was reluctant, he knew Su Ziyue wanted to see Lu Shichu, so he followed along.
Since arriving in Jing City, Lu Shichu hadn't even had the chance to meet his parents. Su Ziyue had expressed her wish to see him, but he had repeatedly declined her requests.
Fate always had a way of bringing people back together, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Lu Shichu smirked, a hint of a faint smile playing on his lips. "Of course, you're all more than welcome."
He naturally led the way and guided them to the room.
As they stepped inside, Lu Shichu opened the door and said, "No need to take off your shoes. Just come in like this."
Once Su Ziyue was in, she glanced around the room. It was simple yet tidy, reflecting Lu Shichu's preference for simplicity and cleanliness.
Carrying the groceries into the kitchen, he added, "Please wait for me. I'll put the groceries in the fridge."
Qin Muchen stood up and trailed Lu Shichu into the kitchen.
He took the bags from Lu Shichu's hands and said, "I'll help you put them away. You go out and talk to her."
Despite his cold expression, it was clear how unwilling he was.
Lu Shichu found it somewhat amusing, yet at the same time, he felt a twinge of jealousy.
"Okay," Lu Shichu replied naturally, handing over the items and giving instructions on where to put them and how to arrange them.
Qin Muchen skillfully completed the task.
Although Lu Shichu didn't want to admit it, he knew that Qin Muchen was also very good to Su Ziyue.
Qin Muchen expressed his love in a different way.
He was a bit more dominant and assertive.
However, if Su Ziyue had chosen him, Lu Shichu speculated that he might have exhibited the same assertiveness as Qin Muchen did.
It had been a long time since he entertained such impossible thoughts.
Leaving the kitchen, he caught sight of Su Ziyue sitting on the sofa, her gaze wandering around. Despite being a wife and mother now, she exuded a familiar aura that effortlessly connected her to the girl he had known years ago.
Time had passed, but memories of Su Ziyue as a child and their shared past remained vivid in his mind.
Amid her curious glances, Su Ziyue spotted Lu Shichu standing not far away, and his eyes were fixed on her.
A warm smile graced her lips as she called out, "Shichu."
Lu Shichu returned her smile, planning to get her a cup of warm water. However, he hesitated, realizing that he hadn't been there for a while, and he wasn't certain if the water from the dispenser was still safe to drink.
