Chapter One Hundred and Three
An Le shook his head again: “I don’t want to.”
Lu Heng was somewhat puzzled. He’d thought An Le would be happy knowing An Qiang wasn’t doing well, but hadn’t expected An Le wouldn’t want to know what kind of life An Qiang was living.
“Why?”
Lu Heng didn’t quite understand and asked quietly, “Doesn’t Lele want revenge on him?”
“I do.”
An Le said softly, “But hearing about what kind of life he’s living would make me feel disgusted. I don’t want to know about his life, not even a little bit.”
As long as An Qiang wasn’t dead and was still in prison, whatever kind of life An Qiang was living had nothing to do with him.
He just needed to know An Qiang wasn’t having a good time.
“I understand.”
Lu Heng laughed softly: “Lele is such a good boy.”
This was about not wanting to dirty his ears.
How had he not noticed before that his little omega was this clever?
An Le didn’t speak, his face red.
Lu Heng checked the time—it was almost five o’clock. He turned and asked, “Lele, what do you want for dinner?”
An Le looked at the snowflakes outside the car window and thought before saying, “I want to go home and eat. I’ll cook.”
This weather was perfect for staying home, lying in his alpha’s arms, with the heater on, munching on snacks while watching the snow. How wonderful!
An Le smiled as he thought about it.
Lu Heng had originally planned to take An Le out to eat, but hearing An Le wanted to go home and cook, he nodded: “Alright, let’s eat at home then.”
However, they ultimately didn’t get to eat this home-cooked dinner, because just as Li Jie turned a corner, Lu Heng’s phone rang.
Lu Heng looked at the phone screen, seeming somewhat unhappy, but after hesitating a moment, he answered anyway.
An Le couldn’t hear what was said on the phone, but after Lu Heng hung up, he asked directly, “I need to go to the hospital now. Do you want to come with me, or go home first?”
An Le paused, asking curiously, “What are we going to the hospital for?”
Lu Heng: “To see someone. If you want to go back, I’ll have Li Jie take you home first.”
“No.”
An Le quickly refused, then hugged Lu Heng’s arm, saying softly, “I want to stay with Sir.”
Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, then smiled without saying more.
They soon arrived at the hospital. Since they were visiting a patient, An Le had hesitated about whether to buy some fruit, but Lu Heng was a businessman—he couldn’t possibly not understand these courtesies.
So even when they reached the hospital entrance and Lu Heng hadn’t mentioned buying anything, An Le didn’t bring it up either.
But he kept wondering who was worth Lu Heng making this troublesome trip for, yet wasn’t worth buying gifts for.
The relationship must not be good… Could it be Lu Chuan?
Or maybe Gu Rou?
Only if these two were hospitalized would Lu Heng have to come visit, yet because he despised them, he wouldn’t buy fruit or flowers or such things for them.
An Le’s guess was quickly confirmed. The person lying in the hospital room was Gu Rou.
Because of Gu Rou’s previous breakdown, An Le was still somewhat afraid to approach, staying hidden behind Lu Heng.
Gu Rou seemed quite normal today, but still had no pleasant expression seeing Lu Heng. She sneered: “Why are you here? Is there no one left in the Lu family?”
Looking at Gu Rou’s pale face, Lu Heng thought for a moment, pulled two stools to the bedside, and sat down with An Le.
An Le was extremely nervous, constantly watching Gu Rou’s expression.
Sure enough, when Gu Rou saw them sit down so casually, she nearly lost it from anger.
Gu Rou: “You little bastard, what do you mean by this? I don’t need you here. Take your omega and get out!”
Lu Heng: “I’ll leave, but before I go, I need to tell you something—the truth about Lu Yuan’s death.”
Lu Yuan was everything to Gu Rou. Hearing this name, she would either calm down or go crazy.
And today, fortunately, Gu Rou calmed down.
Gu Rou: “What do you mean? I saw with my own eyes that you pushed Xiao Yuan. What other truth could there be?”
Lu Heng sneered without speaking.
And in this moment, An Le understood Lu Heng’s purpose.
Gu Rou sat up, reaching to grab Lu Heng’s shoulder: “What are you laughing at? Speak!”
Lu Heng pushed away Gu Rou’s hand, saying helplessly, “I think I’ve told you before—I didn’t push him, but you didn’t believe me.”
Gu Rou’s eyes grew redder: “So you’re here to make excuses again. I saw you push him with my own eyes. How could that be fake?”
“What if I told you that day I wasn’t pushing him, but trying to pull him back?”
Lu Heng smiled and said, “Someone kicked him hard, kicking him to the stairs. He lost his balance and fell on his own, and I reached out to grab him—which is exactly what you saw?”
“Have you ever considered that the bruise on his stomach wasn’t from hitting the stairs, but from being kicked?”
“Have you ever considered that your lover didn’t die in a car accident, but someone tampered with things to deliberately kill him?”
Lu Heng said a lot at once.
Gu Rou was dumbfounded: “What… what do you mean?”
Lu Heng held An Le’s hand, gently pinching An Le’s soft white fingers, and continued, “Lu Yuan was just an omega. How much of my wealth could he take? Why would I attack him?”
“Moreover, my current glory and wealth were all earned by my own hands, having nothing to do with the Lu family.”
“I could have everything without relying on the Lu family. Everything I did back then was unnecessary.”
Lu Heng finally looked up to meet Gu Rou’s eyes, saying angrily in a low voice, “Don’t just live in your own fantasy world. What you imagine isn’t the truth. Come out and look for yourself. All these years, you’ve lived like a joke.”
With that, Lu Heng stood up with An Le and left.
But Gu Rou suddenly threw off the covers and ran after them barefoot: “Don’t go! Explain clearly what this is all about! Don’t go, Lu Heng, Xiao Heng!”
Gu Rou stood barefoot in the hallway.
That call of “Xiao Heng” made Lu Heng stop.
Gu Rou’s eyes were blurry with tears: “Xiao Heng, don’t go yet, wait a moment…”
“I don’t want to wait anymore.”
Before Gu Rou could finish, Lu Heng said, “I’ve explained this to you before. In the past, I could brush it off saying you weren’t clear-headed, but today you’re lucid, so figure it out yourself.”
He hadn’t been without waiting for Gu Rou.
When Gu Rou first misunderstood him, when Gu Rou first treated him differently, he’d tried to explain, but each time he got only disbelief and abuse in return.
The more he explained, the more beatings and punishment he received.
So later, he stopped waiting—didn’t wait for Gu Rou to wake up, didn’t wait for Gu Rou to understand, and didn’t want Gu Rou’s apology anymore.
Although Lu Heng said nothing and appeared as strong as ever on the outside, An Le knew Lu Heng wasn’t feeling good inside either.
So he pulled Lu Heng outside, walking while smiling and saying, “Sir, don’t be sad. Let’s go home and I’ll make you beef soup, okay?”
Lu Heng nodded: “Mm.”
Seeing Lu Heng still seemed somewhat down, An Le blushed and added, “Sir, don’t be unhappy. I-I’ll be good today and drink all the milk you give me.”
Hearing this, a glint flashed in Lu Heng’s eyes. He instantly perked up, pulling him into his arms, asking hoarsely, “Really?”
An Le instantly felt doomed—tonight wouldn’t be easy.
But seeing that the coldness and that empty emotion of being disconnected from everything in the world had finally left Lu Heng’s eyes, he ultimately nodded: “Mm.”
Lu Heng asked again: “Where will you drink it from?”
An Le’s face turned even redder. He couldn’t even look at Lu Heng anymore, lowering his head to hide while saying, “A-anywhere is fine. Sir, y-you decide.”
“Then it’s settled. No backing out, no crying.”
Lu Heng laughed uncontrollably: “If you cry, you’ll have to drink one more time.”
An Le immediately protested, hitting Lu Heng’s chest and saying angrily, “Sir…”
After Lu Heng had laughed enough, he finally released An Le from his arms, then pulled him along while walking out of the hospital, saying, “Just teasing. You’re allowed to cry.”
Gu Rou was still in the hallway. Barefoot, wearing thin hospital clothes, she watched Lu Heng leaving with An Le downstairs, suddenly feeling heartbroken.
Supporting herself against the wall, tears fell drop by drop. After Lu Heng and An Le’s figures disappeared, she immediately ran back to her room, grabbed her phone and called people she trusted, asking them to investigate what Lu Chuan had done all these years.
But these things didn’t need investigating—Lu Heng had already prepared everything for her.
As soon as she made the call, people were already at the hospital entrance. Soon the materials she wanted were delivered.
Gu Rou sat on the bed, her already pale face becoming even whiter after reading the materials. Finally, with tears streaming down her face, she broke down crying on the bed.
The omega who delivered the materials said helplessly, “Xiao Rou, don’t cry. What should we do now?”
Gu Rou didn’t speak.
What could they do?
Although Lu Chuan hadn’t publicly announced that Lu Heng had pushed Lu Yuan, he’d secretly told her it was Lu Heng who did it.
She’d hated Lu Heng for so many years, tortured Lu Heng for so many years, only to discover in the end that she’d been manipulated by a villain and had wronged Lu Heng.
Her son and husband had both died at Lu Chuan’s hands, and all these years she’d been kept in the dark, still thinking it was Lu Heng who did it.
What should she do now?
She’d had two children in her life, and now faced with Xiao Yuan dead and Lu Heng rejecting her.
Gu Rou gripped the bed, hatred nearly overflowing from her eyes. She gritted her teeth in rage: “Why? Why?!”
Why was it okay for Lu Chuan to fool around outside, but not for her to find her own love?
Not only did he kill her lover and her child, but in the end… in the end, he made her push Lu Heng away with her own hands.
Gu Rou shook her head: “This isn’t fair. I-I won’t accept this!”
The omega who brought the materials was sweating anxiously: “Xiao Rou, Xiao Rou!”
He thought Gu Rou was having another episode and quickly pressed the nurse call button.
But Gu Rou grabbed his arm, a smile in her eyes as she said, “Help me do something…”
——
After returning home, An Le paid for what he’d said at the hospital with actual actions.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t take it back.
After drinking the milk, his eyes were red, looking somewhat angry and wronged.
Lu Heng wiped the corner of his mouth with his finger and said softly, “Lele, it spilled out.”
