Chapter 457 (2/2)
She walked out quickly.
Even Lu Xingyao and Gu Yanqing, who were at the door, were stunned.
Meanwhile, Lu Yisheng, who was in the room, was staring at Song Beibei’s back in a daze. His gaze was bleak.
Gu Yanqing chased after her.
Song Beibei walked to the end of the long corridor in one breath.
When Gu Yanqing saw her figure, he slowed down his footsteps and slowly walked behind her.
Song Beibei looked into the distance.
When Gu Yanqing walked over, she turned around and buried her head in his arms.
Gu Yanqing didn’t say anything. He just patted Song Beibei’s back as if he was comforting a child.
They all heard what Song Beibei said just now
Song Beibei was too kind after all.
She said that to stimulate Lu Yisheng’s will to survive.
He knew that Song Beibei was in a lot of pain at that moment.
In fact, she wanted to forgive Lu Yisheng, but she felt that forgiving him was a betrayal to her father.
Just like how she treated herself back then.
Song Beibei took three years to release herself from the prison in her heart.
Gu Yanqing Hugged Song Beibei and said, “let’s go home. ”
While Song Beibei was in the car, she received a message from Lu Xingyao.
The content of the message was only two words: thank you!
Song Beibei understood what Lu Xingyao meant.
What Lu Yisheng lacked the most right now was the will to live.
Gu Yanqing was right. To him, living was much more painful than dying.
If Song Beibei really forgave him, he would be able to leave with a peace of mind.
So, Song Beibei said those words on purpose just now.
It just made Lu Yisheng a little unwilling to accept this world.
Song Beibei felt that if she had to be punished, then living was the greatest punishment.
After returning, Song Beibei went to her room to rest.
Today was the first day of the New Year.
Because there were a few more children at home, it was much livelier than before.
As she walked along the corridor, she heard the laughter of the children.
Song Beibei felt as if she had taken a reassurance, and her heart calmed down.
Forget it, there was nothing to fuss about.
She didn’t want to hate anyone, nor did she want to be tormented by hatred until she was beyond recognition.
Even if she had to submit to the warmth of reality.
Having such laughter was enough.
Song Beibei was about to go to her room.
Aunt Feng happened to come over and said to Song Beibei, “Miss, there was a call from harbor city just now. ”
A Call From Harbor City?
Song Beibei asked, “what did they say? ”
Aunt Feng said, “the Xiao Family will have a family banquet in two days. Please attend it, Mister and miss. ”
Song Beibei nodded. “I understand. ”
Song Beibei knew about the family banquet in harbor city.
The Xiao family was a huge family.
Other than Xiao Peishan, everyone else was involved in politics.
The Xiao Family was very busy, and they rarely contacted each other.
Other than major events, it was a family banquet that was held once a year.
The family banquet was held in the Xiao Family’s ancestral residence, which was the Xiao Family’s half-mountain villa.
The members of the Xiao family, whether they were in the military or politics, or they were studying and working abroad, would always find time to come back.
In the past, this was all organized by Xiao Peishan.
But Xiao Peishan had passed away.
And Mu Lan had never been welcomed by the Xiao family.
Song Beibei had just called two days ago to ask.
Mu Lan and Xiao Mianjun were currently on vacation in Japan.
They had no intention of coming back for the New Year, let alone organizing a family banquet.
Moreover, even if they were to return to Hong Kong city, they could just call their private number. Why would they call their home phone?
While Song Beibei was puzzled, Gu Yanqing had already come over.
Song Beibei told her about this matter.
Gu Yanqing seemed to know about it. “It’s a call from Xiao Jiankai’s side. This family banquet is being held at his place. I’ve already contacted mom and Mianjun’s side. They’re going over as well. It just so happens that they’re back in the country today. ”
Everything made sense now.
Song Beibei suddenly thought of something. “Do you think he’s taking this opportunity to introduce our future second aunt? ”
