After I left, the female CEO was utterly heartbroken.

On the evening of the Autumn Equinox, a fine, continuous drizzle was falling in Jiangcheng.

For Lu Han, once love turns sour, it should be tossed into the trash.

He is a person who can't tolerate any flaws.

So when he made up his mind to leave, he found that he didn't feel the slightest bit of reluctance.

Lu Han put away his phone and started packing his things.

Besides a few clothes and daily necessities that he put into the suitcase, everything else related to him was unceremoniously burned.

If he was going to leave, he would leave completely.

He didn't even want to leave Chu Ruoyan the slightest thing worth remembering.

Amidst the billowing thick smoke, the fire flickered, casting a cold face into relief.

Lu Han suddenly remembered something and took out a delicately wrapped box from his pocket.

When he opened it, there was an exquisite diamond ring inside.

Originally, this was intended for proposing to Chu Ruoyan.

But now, it was no longer needed. Lu Han threw the diamond ring into the brazier.

After the flames completely died out, he placed the key on the dining table.

Opening the door, without even looking back, Lu Han left resolutely.

The streetlights on both sides of the road were dim.

The autumn rain was still pattering down, splashing countless tiny ripples in the puddles.

When he reached outside the community, a Rolls - Royce Cullinan was already waiting by the roadside.

The car door was quickly opened, and a man who looked like a butler greeted him.

"Young master..."

His expression was excited, and even his tone carried a bit of a tremor.

The man was in his sixties, with graying temples.

Looking at Lu Han's face, he could faintly see the image of the child who had just been weaned in his memory overlapping.

So alike!

They were incredibly alike!

Even without that paternity test, he dared to be certain that this was the bloodline of the Lu family who had been lost outside.

"Are you... Uncle Sen?"

Lu Han also had a vague impression of this man. He seemed to remember that this man had carried him when he was a child.

"Young master, you still remember me?"

There were a few tears glistening in the butler's eyes.

He immediately felt a bit embarrassed and quickly wiped them with his sleeve.

He had served the Lu family for most of his life.

Whether it was the family head, Lu Qingtian, or Lu Han's father, Lu Zhensheng, they all regarded him as one of the Lu family.

So he also treated Lu Han as his own child.

Unfortunately, this child had gone missing when he was very young.

Despite the Lu family's extensive search efforts, there was no news of him.

After twenty years, Lu Han had finally been found.

How could he not be excited?

Lu Han nodded and said in a complex tone, "Let's go."

Uncle Sen quickly carried Lu Han's suitcase into the car.

After starting the car, he asked cautiously,

"Young master, may I ask what made you change your mind?"

He was referring to why Lu Han was now willing to return to the Lu family.

More than a month ago, Lu Zhensheng rarely attended a wine party and happened to run into Lu Han by chance.

Perhaps it was an inborn blood - related connection.

With just one glance, Lu Zhensheng felt that this was his long - lost son.

And the subsequent paternity test proved that his intuition was correct.

Unfortunately, before Lu Zhensheng could even start to rejoice, Lu Han refused to return to the Lu family.

Uncle Sen had been handling Lu Zhensheng's business outside for the past six months and had just come back a few days ago, so he didn't know the exact details.

As for why he was asking this question, given his status, he really shouldn't be so nosy.

However, this was what Lu Zhensheng had ordered.

The reason was that Lu Han was too cold towards his biological father, so they could only try to find out through Uncle Sen.

"It's not exactly that I've changed my mind," Lu Han said, closing his eyes and resting with his arms folded.

"I got dumped. All my sincere feelings were wasted on a heartless person."

"Anyway, I didn't know where else to go. That old guy happened to call, so I might as well go back and be a prodigal son."

He explained casually, unaware that through the tiny microphone in Uncle Sen's collar, every word was heard clearly by Lu Zhensheng on the other end.

Dumped?

Lu Zhensheng's long and narrow eyes narrowed dangerously.

When they found Lu Han, they knew he had a girlfriend.

Originally, Lu Zhensheng was not satisfied with Chu Ruoyan.

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, a female CEO with tens of millions of assets was what many men dreamed of, but for the huge Lu family, she was far from good enough.

Originally, as long as Lu Han liked her, out of guilt towards this biological son, even if Lu Zhensheng felt uncomfortable, he wouldn't interfere.

But now they had broken up, and judging from Lu Han's tone, it seemed that Chu Ruoyan was at fault?

Then he couldn't be blamed for being ruthless.

A mere Chu Ruoyan could be crushed as easily as an ant.

However, now was not the time to dwell on this. Lu Zhensheng pondered for a moment, then picked up his phone and made a call.

"Hello, Lao Su（full name:Su Qiuchao）. I heard your precious daughter is still single?"

... ...

"Yanyan, thank you."

After the concert ended and they just got into the car, Ling Mo said with a smile,

"I really didn't expect that you still remembered our promise from back then."

Hearing this, a hint of sadness flashed in Chu Ruoyan's eyes.

"You don't need to be so polite with me," Chu Ruoyan said softly.

"Since I promised you that we'd watch a concert together, of course I'd keep my word."

"I knew you were the best to me,"

Ling Mo suddenly smiled self - deprecatingly and said,

"Unfortunately, I didn't cherish it back then. Otherwise, I wouldn't have..."

"Ling Mo, let's not talk about the past,"

Chu Ruoyan quickly interrupted him and said indifferently,

"You know, I already have a boyfriend."

So what if she had a boyfriend? Ling Mo sneered inwardly.

Now that he was back, it was only a matter of time before Chu Ruoyan broke up with her boyfriend.

The fact that she could come to accompany him to the concert behind her boyfriend's back showed that this woman hadn't forgotten him at all.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to bring this up."

Chu Ruoyan nodded. As soon as Ling Mo started the car, she habitually took out her phone.

Flipping through Moments, Chu Ruoyan suddenly froze. The pictures and words posted by Ling Mo came into view, and Lu Han's like below was particularly eye - catching.

"How come you and Lu Han are WeChat friends?"

Chu Ruoyan's mind went blank. It was ridiculous that she thought everything was seamless, but she didn't know that Lu Han had known about it for a long time. Thinking about Lu Han's calm tone on the phone before, not only did he not expose her lie, but he even asked her inexplicably if she really loved him. Chu Ruoyan felt extremely restless.

It was abnormal. It was way too abnormal. Intense unease surged like a tide, and she even felt it was a bit difficult to breathe.

"Ah? How could this be..."

Ling Mo pretended to be surprised in the first second, but in the next second, he looked full of remorse and said, "I remember now. When I heard you had a boyfriend, I asked someone to get his WeChat.

"I just asked him to take good care of you and never let you down at that time.

"Yanyan, I'm really sorry.

"I was so focused on sharing this joy in Moments that I forgot about this!"

"Did Lu Han see it?"

Whether this explanation was reasonable or not, Chu Ruoyan was too flustered to care.

She quickly called Lu Han.

"Hello, the number you dialed is powered off..."

This time, it was Lu Han's turn to turn off his phone.

Chu Ruoyan suddenly had a very bad premonition, and it was getting stronger and stronger.

She bit her lip. "Ling Mo, let's go back to Jiangcheng!"

"Now?"

Ling Mo was shocked and quickly tried to persuade her. "Yanyan, it takes at least four hours to go back. It will be early morning when we get home.

"I know you're afraid that Lu Han will misunderstand and want to explain it to him as soon as possible.

"But I think, since you've been together for two years, he shouldn't lack this basic trust in you, right?

"Besides, driving at night is not safe. Why not wait until tomorrow?"

This made some sense.

Coincidentally, she also needed to buy a gift for Lu Han.

Chu Ruoyan hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.

She kept comforting herself in her heart.

It's okay. Lu Han loves her so much.

Although she was wrong first, she really just wanted to say a proper goodbye to the past, so she agreed to Ling Mo's request to watch the concert together.

Lu Han wasn't such a narrow - minded man.

As long as she explained this clearly and coaxed him a bit, everything would be fine.

That's what Chu Ruoyan thought, but she didn't know that she was completely wrong.

Lu Han didn't want her anymore.

He didn't even want to say goodbye.

Because leaving was a personal matter and there was no need to say goodbye to anyone.
