29 An Important Clue: sBudding Starlets (1/2)

Lu Man silently clung onto the door, afraid of making a sound.

Upon seeing Xia Qingwei's peaceful sleeping face, she swore that she would never ever let her mother get hurt again.

After looking at her silently for a while, Lu Man returned home.

This home was Xia Qingwei's old home.

After her divorce with Lu Qiyuan, Xia Qingyang could not bear to let Lu Qiyuan give any of his enormous assets to Xia Qingwei.

Who knew what she had secretly told Lu Qiyuan.

Thus, in the end, all Xia Qingwei received in the divorce settlement was the old apartment they used to live in when they were not well off.

However, Xia Qingwei did not wish to see anything related to Lu Qiyuan that would remind her of him.

Hence, she decided to sell that house. However, it was also at that time when Xia Qingwei coincidentally suffered from a heart attack. Therefore, the place they were currently living in became an even smaller apartment.

Back in that time, the property prices were not as ridiculous as now. Old buildings usually had six floors but did not have an elevator. Thus, the sixth floor was the cheapest.

In order to save more money, Xia Qingwei wanted to buy an apartment on the sixth floor.

However, because of Xia Qingwei's health, Lu Man insisted on buying the one on the first floor.

While the remaining money from the sell was all used to treat Xia Qingwei's illness.

Now, returning after eight years, Lu Man cried right after stepping through the entrance.

The previous time she was here, all that was left was a dusty and empty house along with the bad news that her mother had died.

However, this time around, her mother was still alive and receiving treatment in the hospital.

As long as Xia Qingwei was around, she always had a sense of belonging.

In her past life, the house key was always kept in her bag.

Even after a lifetime, Lu Man still habitually looked for the key in her bag.

Ha! She was right. She found her house key.

Taking it out, she opened the door.
