The car started slowly.

Their journey started in silence, but near the end Lu Jingzhi suddenly spoke up.

“In the past… did Sister always take this car?”

Old Zhu understood that he was talking about Lu Ning when he brought up the past.

At the mention of Lu Ning, he could not help but smile. “Yes, I used to bring the

Young Mistress around.”

Lu Jingzhi’s big eyes darted about as he looked around the car. Then, he asked again, “Was she happy in the past?” Old Zhu was taken aback for a moment.

“Not quite.”

At that time, Lu Ning was mostly alone by herself.

Sitting in the backseat, Lu Jingzhi did not say anything else.

The car arrived at the entrance of No. 1 High School.

Coincidentally, the bell marking the end of school rang.

After no time at all, someone dashed out.

Lu Jingzhi turned and saw Lu Ning speeding off with her school bag, making a beeline to the café across the road.

He let out a belated sigh of relief.

About ten minutes later, Ltl Yue’an strolled out with someone. When she saw the car waiting outside, she quickly stepped over, opened the car door, and got in.

“Little Darling, you must have waited a long time.”

“Not really.”

Lù Yue’an knocked on the back of the chair, and Old Zhu immediately started the car.

The dessert store emanated an ambiance of elegance, and soothing light music was being broadcast.

Lù Yue’an brought Lu Jingzhi to sit by the window.

Lu Jingzhi looked around the store, where the two of them were the only customers.

As if she knew what he was looking for, Ltl Yue’an smiled at him. “I’ve booked the entire venue. You can eat whatever you want.”

Lu Jingzhi glanced at the exquisite desserts in front of him, quietly pulled a chocolate-filled dessert over, and took a couple of bites with a small fork.

During this time, Lù Yue’an kept asking him questions, and they were mostly about whether the family was doing well. Lu Jingzhi knew that she was sounding out their situation, and also knew what she wanted to hear; however, he simnly ate in silence. only? answering her occasionally-

After he had finished all the desserts in front of him, Lù Yue’an pushed a rich, yellow-colored dessert over in front of him. “Try this, it’s mango-flavored. It’s very delicious.”

Lu Jingzhi frowned slightly and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

“I’ll pass.”

Lù Yue’an looked at him. “Are you full? How about some juice?” Just as she was about to call the waitress, Lu Jingzhi cut in.

“Sister, there’s no need.”

This was the first time Lu Jingzhi had called Ltl Yue’an ‘Sister’ after she left.

She looked at Lu Jingzhi and smiled. She thought that children were easy to coax, that a bit of delicious food could make them change their minds.

Looking at her smile, Lu Jingzhi said, “Don’t waste your time on me anymore, you are no longer part of our family. Before you left, you made this point very clear, and I heard everything you said back then…”

When he said this, Ltl Yue’an felt chills run down her spine.

“You’re right, you have the right to pursue such things. Moreover, they’re your biological parents. I hope you can keep your word and draw a clear line between our families; don’t come back and pretend to be good to vie with Sister for our attention, just because you’re unhappy.

“That was your choice, you have to abide by your choices. Also, stop pestering Brother.

“Your life is already very good.

“I’ll take this as the last bit of good you did for me, and from now on we’ll be strangers. We’re no longer siblings.”

These were not something a child would say. Lù Yue’an was shocked, but at the same time she felt that someone had instigated him to say all these.

“Thank you for the dessert, Miss Lù.”

He hopped down from his seat, turned around, and left the store, leaving Lù Yue’an sitting in her seat in a daze..
