Chapter 427 - Extra 5 - He had nowhere to go. He needed Zhizhi to take him in. (3)

“I’m sorry, Zhizhi.” Panicked, Lu Jue’s first reaction was to apologize.

“Get changed. Then we will talk.” Ning Zhi walked out, closing the door behind her.

Lu Jue changed quickly. He was aware that Zhizhi was upset at him.

Once he was done changing, he quickly went back to Ning Zhi. “I’m sorry, Zhizhi. I was wrong.”

There were medicines placed in front of Ning Zhi and a glass of warm water. “Take your pills first.”

Lu Jue gave Ning Zhi a look and took the pills docilely. He swallowed them directly without even using the water.

“Drink the water too,” said Ning Zhi.

Lu Jue was very obedient right now. He picked up the glass and gulped down the water. “Don’t be mad, Zhizhi. I was wrong.”

Ning Zhi looked at him. Lu Jue’s handsome face was pale from the air conditioner as were his lips. “I am mad. You shouldn’t use such a stupid way to stay. There’s nothing stupider than someone harming themselves.

“You don’t owe me an apology; you owe yourself one.” Ning Zhi sighed. She didn’t think that Lu Jue would have used such an awful method just to stay with her.

Lu Jue looked panicked. He did something bad and he had made Zhizhi mad.

“Come over here.” Ning Zhi’s tone was a little cold.

Lu Jue’s thin eyelids shuddered a little. He was so anxious that the corners of his eyes were red and his long and straight eyelashes fluttered helplessly.

He took a step forward, squatted down in front of Ning Zhi, and looked up at her. “Zhizhi.”

Ning Zhi gritted her teeth, reached both of her hands out, and rubbed Lu Jue’s hair madly.

His hair became messy immediately and went all over the place. She even violently rubbed Lu Jue’s cheeks and ears. “What have you done? All these things that you have done behind my back. You made me worried about you……”

“Zhizhi.” Squatting in front of her, Lu Jue’s eyes were bright and he just let her rubbed him all she wanted.

By the time Ning Zhi was done, Lu Jue’s hair was a mess and both of his ears were red from the rubbing. “You can’t do something stupid like this ever again. Or else I will never talk to you again.”

Lu Jue nodded forcefully and agreed. “I won’t. Zhizhi must talk to me.”

Ning Zhi harrumphed. “I’ll have someone take you home in a little while. You had already stayed here for a long time.”

“I not leaving, Zhizhi.” Lu Jue looked at her eagerly.

“No, you must go home.” Ning Zhi put on a straight face purposefully. “This will be a small reminder for you.” So he wouldn’t do something stupid again next time.

Lu Jue felt aggrieved. “I will be back to see Zhizhi tomorrow.”

“No.”

Under Lu Jue’s gloomy look, Ning Zhi carried on to say, “You can only come after you have recovered.”

Lu Jue was taken home by the Ning’s chauffeur.

Inside the living room, Old Mr. Lu was having tea. He put his cup down and slammed onto the surface when he saw Lu Jue walked inside. “Now you come home?”

Lu Jue said not a word.

Old Mr. Lu was enraged. He slammed down on the table once again. “Do you know how many days you have been gone? I heard that you had been waiting outside the Ning’s and refused to leave even when asked. What was wrong with you?”

Lu Jue ignored Old Mr. Lu completely and started walking upstairs.

Old Mr. Lu was never very attached to Lu Jue, who had only recently rejoined the family. Being ignored completely, he became angrier. “If you like to be outside so much, you don’t need to come back anymore.”

Lu Jue’s stopped in his track.

He turned around this time. There was no sadness on him. Quite the contrary, there was joy in his eyes.

Old Mr. Lu felt that Lu Jue’s back looked very happy after he had spoken.

After a long while, Old Mr. Lu saw Lu Jue coming downstairs with a red backpack on his back. He walked toward the front door with sparkling eyes.

“Don’t ever come back if you leave now.” Old Mr. Lu said mean words to Lu Jue.

This time, Lu Jue nodded. His pitch-black eyes were even brighter than before.

With red backpack on him, he left in happy stops on his tall, long legs.

He had nowhere to go. He needed Zhizhi to take him in.
