"But you are just children..." Nini repeated angrily. She simply couldn't understand why Lu Shaoyang treated a pair of little brothers and sisters like this back then!
"But in Grandpa's eyes, we have never been children. We are members of the Lu family, and the surname 'Lu' is our pride."
"this… "
"In order to cultivate my sister to become a socialite in City C, my grandfather took out the children's books and comics from her hand when she was three years old, and gave her a book on 'Standard Etiquette for a Lady from a Famous Family'. At the same time, he also He hired various talent teachers with high salaries to teach her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he wanted Ning Yu to become the most elegant socialite."
"Please! Your sister was only three years old back then, how could he..." Nini was furious after hearing this!
"Why can't he? Of course he can. Don't forget, he is my and Ning Yu's biological grandfather." Yu Cheng shook his head at her and smiled.
"What about you?" With such high expectations for his granddaughter, one can imagine how outrageous and strict Lu Shaoyang's requirements for his eldest grandson Yucheng would be.
"Me?" After a pause, he seemed to be telling someone else's story, speaking expressionlessly, "When I was nine years old, I had many languages to learn, and when I was eleven, I had many economic and management books to read. When I was twelve years old..."
Listening to his feelings that were never known to outsiders, listening to him talk about the same days over the years, his life restricted by his elders, and his heart that was tightly bound and not free, Yang Nini's heart twisted into a ball.
In the past, Yu Cheng had briefly told her that he had a happy childhood when his parents were still alive, but when both his parents passed away and his grandfather Lu Shaoyang took over the lives of their siblings, his world changed. Everything has changed, but she didn't know that his life had changed so much.
No wonder, when Manager Lin invited them to go out together a few days ago, he refused immediately. But when she said they could have a barbecue and play in the water, he immediately changed his mind and agreed.
No wonder, when he looked at the blue sky, white clouds, gurgling streams, and mountains and green forests, his eyes would be so calm, gentle, and even happy... It turned out that all of this reminded him of the happiness he had in those days.
Leaning against him, her head resting lightly on his shoulder, Nini looked at the clear, cloudless blue sky in the distance with him.
"The golden sunshine, the green mountains and forests, the blue sky, the laughter of children..." Looking up, he looked at the blue sky at the top, and whispered: "The Ancheng and happiness in my heart are like this."
He thought that Ancheng like this had disappeared long ago, but now, in the suburbs of Beixian County, on the faces of the children laughing and playing by the mountain stream, and on the smiling faces of everyone around him, he saw what he had lost for many years. of happiness.
"Yucheng..." Raising her head, she looked into his deep eyes.
In her eyes, the ordinary and inconspicuous place became a happy new world in his eyes.
"It's a pity that there are no endless sweet potatoes that can be dug here to roast." He smiled lightly, with regret in his smile.
"Sweet potato?" Nini was stunned and sat upright.
"Nothing, just talking casually. By the way, have you seen fireflies?" He asked suddenly,
"Fireflies?" She blinked, with a slight smile on her lips, "I saw them when I was a child. They flickered, much like little stars!"
"Hmm. I don't know where there are fireflies now? But I think, even if there are, the light pollution is so serious now that it's not easy to see them."
