Chapter 568: The Calmness of Love Brings Peace
""Get the kids!"Shu Tinglan drove from the legal aid center to kindergarten, and she was almost an hour late. Her two children were waiting for her at the kindergarten entrance, being led by their tea...As expected, he's more attracted to women than friends. I sent so many messages and made so many calls before, but he ignored all of them. As soon as Ruan Ruan arrived, he immediately came over.
Lu YaoYao wanted to please him, but she didn't show it. Because she knew her brother best; the more enthusiastic she was towards him, the more arrogant he became, and the colder she was, the more interested he seemed to be.
And this time, Ruirui, for some unknown reason, saw Lu Kuo and didn't say a word. She didn't even look at him directly, treating him as if he were invisible.
Lu Kuo knew he was in the wrong. That night, he had yelled at her and left. The next day, after calming down, he realized his mistake but couldn't bring himself to apologize out of shame. He just kept avoiding it, until Lu Yaoyao gave him this opportunity.
Lu Yao didn't know what had caused the misunderstanding between the two, nor did she know it was because of her. She originally wanted to use Ruan Ruan to ease the tension between Lu Kuo and him, but seeing them like this, she obediently shut up.
Lu Kuo asked the waiter for the menu and then asked the two of them, "What do you guys want to eat I'll treat you."
The guy has thick skin. The two girls ignored him, but he just kept going as if nothing happened. You have to admire that.
Ruan Ruan naturally ignored him. She wasn't truly angry with him, just that she disliked this pattern of interaction. They'd argue and he'd leave, then ignore her for ten or half a month. Who doesn't have some temper
Nuan Nuan and Lu YaoYao became best friends because they both possess confidence and inner strength.
Lu YaoYao is confident because she had enough love growing up in a safe and secure environment. As for Ruan Ruan, her upbringing was quite different. Growing up alone abroad, she became independent due to her experiences.
and confident.
So when it comes to love, they are all the giving type, but their giving is not about pleasing others. They first enjoy it themselves. If the other person can reciprocate equally, that's naturally the best, like Gu Ruandong to Lu Yaoyao.
But if they can't, they wouldn't feel it was their fault, nor would they deny themselves, like Lu Kuo to Ruan Ruan.
Actually, Ruanruan knows that Lu Kuo has a good impression of her and thinks her personality would be suitable for marriage, but it's far from love.
Ruan Ruan has silently liked him for so many years. She's confessed her feelings and even slept with him. If he never falls for her, she won't force it.
Ruan Ruan had been living alone for so long that she didn't have any expectations for marriage. She even felt indifferent to the idea of staying single her whole life, so she figured she might as well just take things slow with Lu Kuo. She wasn't intentionally dragging things out; she just wasn't in a hurry at all.
Though Lu Kuo didn't utter an apology, his words and actions spoke volumes of appeasement. He silently ordered her favorite dishes, quietly poured juice into her glass, offering a subtle step down from the awkward situation.
She naturally got off.
Lu Yaoyao imitated him, during the meal, silently put a piece of fish into Lu Kuo's bowl and poured him a cup of wine, she said carefully.
“Brother, you can drink with confidence. I'll drive you home later.” Such a caring sister.
Lu Kuai took the cup and drank, as a gesture of breaking the ice between them.
This solved the issue. The siblings didn't have any lingering resentment, they just needed a way out and gave each other one.
After that, Lu Kuò didn't say anything more, only YáoYáo and RuanRuan chatted for a few words.
Ruan Ruan has been back in her home country for almost a year now, and she's settled into her teaching position at the forest university. Everything is going well.
Everything is fine. Her mother was able to buy her son a new wedding house because the demolition payment came through, and they also have a small return housing unit. Since she could see that Ruan Ruan had no one to look after her at home, she hasn't asked for money again. Her life is considered peaceful now.
It's very calm, and quite nice.
Li, Lu, and their other companion walked out of the restaurant. Li said...
"You go ahead, I'll send Ruann back to school."
Lu Yaoyao understood, walked towards her own car, and as she was about to get in, Lu Kuo came over again.
"When are we going to the film set"
"Tomorrow."
"Be careful. And think about what I said before, brother still says the same thing, Gu Ruandong is not suitable for you."
Lu Yaoyao was a bit angry. These words had been said once already, and repeating them wasn't interesting. She was an adult and capable of making her own judgments about right and wrong.
She got straight into the car and drove away without even saying goodbye.
Two minutes later, Lu Kuo's message came in WeChat.
"No matter what, the Lu family will always be your support."Give me Gu Ruandong’s phone number,” weren't hallucinations. He then spoke, "Gu Ruandong was in Macau the past two days for the opening of a casino he invested in. He should be back in the next couple...
