Chapter 709: 709 Be More Concern About her
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tan Ron was playing chess with Li Li and the others when she suddenly heard Aunt Zhou say that someone was looking for her downstairs. Who would look for her in the middle of the night?
Li Li and Tian Tian followed him to the stairs. Then, the three of them saw Lu Qing sitting on the sofa in the living room.
“Lu Qing, why are you here? Didn’t 1 ask you to send Liang Lu back just now?” Tan Rou was a little confused. “Did something happen to you?”
Lu Qing frowned. He crossed his arms and pleaded, “I wanted to ask you for something.”
Li Li was the first to run down. “Handsome Lu actually has something to ask of us. How rare!”
“Li Li, let him finish.” Tan Rou said.
“Lu Qing, are you talking about Liang Lu?” asked Tian Tian.
Lu Qing nodded.
Li Li’s smile disappeared. “We’re also very sad about Liang Lu’s matter, but the dead can’t be brought back to life. We can’t save her parents, nor can I make her leave her adoptive parents.”
Lu Qing shook his head and said, “I’m not talking about her family. Her biological parents have passed away. Her adoptive parents probably won’t be able to control her in the future. There’s no need to worry too much about it. What I want to say is, can you take care of her?”
“Liang Lu is our friend,” Tan Rou replied. “I’ve put in a lot of effort for her to come to the Capital to attend university. I won’t give up on this friend so easily.”
“I know that you two are very close, but Liang Lu doesn’t like to show weakness. No matter how painful it is, she won’t say anything. I hope you can ask her out more often when you have the chance,” Lu Qing said. “I’ll reimburse all the expenses.”
Tan Rou found Lu Qing’s behavior strange. “Lu Qing, why are you doing this? It’s not likely that you like her, right?”
Lu Qing didn’t like Liang Lu. This was something that the entire school knew. Back then, in high school, all the students from Grade 10 to Grade 12 knew that the school bully Liang Lu liked Lu Qing, but he has never liked Liang Lu in return.
She did not expect Lu Qing to ask someone else to take care of Liang Lu in just a few months. It was really strange.
“I don’t mean anything else. 1 just think that Liang Lu needs more care. If you don’t think it’s good, just pretend that I didn’t come today.” Lu Qing’s expression was also very strange.
“Lu Qing, if you like her, then go and care for her yourself. 1 believe that your concern will be much more useful than ours.” Tan Rou said.
Lu Qing didn’t agree. “If 1 care about her now, she will definitely think that I’m doing this out of pity. I don’t know how 1 feel about her now. 1 feel that most of my feelings are sympathy.”
“Fine.” Tan Rou could understand what Lu Qing meant. “You should still treat her like you did before. Liang Lu is a very sensitive girl. If she finds out that you’re sympathizing with her, she probably won’t appear in front of you anymore.”
“You can take care of her more,” Li Li said. “But don’t let her find out what you’re doing. Otherwise, she might stay further and further away from you.”
“Yes, I know.” Lu Qing said a few words and was about to leave. There was a curfew in the boys ‘dormitory. He had to return to the dormitory before 11 o’clock.
Xu Yan was waiting for him at the entrance of the dormitory. “Have you sent her back to school?”
Lu Qing knew who Xu Yan was referring to. “I sent her to the dormitory and then came back.”
“I really don’t understand what you’re thinking.” Xu Yan leaned against the wall. “When you said you were going to send her back today, you really gave me a shock. I thought you liked Tan Rou.”
Lu Qing replied, “Tan Rou already has a boyfriend. If 1 harass her again, I’ll be shameless.”
“Then how do you feel about Liang Lu? Do you actually like her or is it out of sympathy?” Xu Yan asked.
Lu Qing couldn’t say it. He felt that it was impossible for him to say that he liked Liang Lu. However, he felt that it was even more impossible for him to say that he sympathized with Liang Lu.
Lu Qing was not a saint. He would sympathize with the unfortunate, but he would never send someone back to the dormitory, nor would he ask others to take care of that person.
Therefore, he had a very different feeling towards Liang Lu.
“I really like what Liang Lu said. A wise man doesn’t fall in love, but a single man will make a fortune.” Xu Yan smiled.
Lu Qing listened to Xu Yan’s words and smiled bitterly. “You’re still more relaxed. You only love to study.”
“I hope it will always be like this,” Xu Yan replied..
