This was the first time Tan Ron heard that Liang Lu was adopted. She thought that Liang Luâs parents did not care about her because Liang Lu was a delinquent in school. She did not expect Liang Lu to not be their biological child at all.
âLulu, if you want to cry, you can cry on my shoulder.â Li Li comforted.
She still remembered how Liang Lu was when she first met her. At that time, Liang Lu had a hundred followers behind her. Every time she went out, it was as if she was going to cause trouble.
However, she did not expect Liang Lu to have such a sad story.
From the way Liang Lu defended her biological mother, she must have loved her mother very much. His fatherâs actions and his motherâs death must have had an indelible impact on the young Liang Lu.
Liang Lu, who always acted like a big sister, was now like a weak little girl. She leaned on Li Liâs shoulder and cried non-stop.
At the age of eleven, she could already remember many things. All these years, the scene of her mother being carried away by the ambulance covered in blood had been imprinted in her mind. Every time it was late at night, she would think of her mother.
The woman who loved wearing beautiful dresses ended up wearing a white dress covered with blood. In front of her young daughter, she jumped off a tall building and never woke up again.
Tan Rou quietly left her seat. There were already Li Li and Tian Tian beside Liang Lu, so she was unnecessary. Besides, she didnât know how to comfort people, so she might as well get out and do something else.
Tan Rou quickly searched for Zhang Xueâs information. After understanding Zhang Xueâs situation, she decided to give Zhang Xue some trouble.
Xu Yan sat by the flower bed and talked about Liang Lu. âActually, Iâve known about Liang Luâs parents for a long time. I also know that her current parents arenât her biological parents. Liang Luâs biological father used to have business dealings with my father. Later, he went bankrupt. My parents once lent him a large sum of money, but unfortunately, he didnât use it for good.â
âWhat do you mean?â Lu Qing suddenly had a bad feeling.
Xu Yan frowned. âLiang Luâs biological father didnât go bankrupt because of his business. Instead, he became addicted to gambling. Later on, he didnât return the money he earned from his wife to those debts. All the money was taken by him to gamble.â
Lu Qing felt terrible. âIn the end, he lost all his money and had no way to get any more money, so he jumped off the building and committed suicide?â
Xu Yan nodded. âThatâs the truth. However, Liang Lu doesnât seem to know about her fatherâs addict. Now that heâs dead, we donât have to bring this up anymore.â
âYes.â Lu Qing didnât want to poke Liang Luâs wound. â1 wonât say it.â
Liang Lu cried for a long time. She cried till until the sun set. Tan Rou and the others waited for her there. No one spoke.
âIâm sorry for wasting your time. Iâm the one who ruined the party today,â Liang Lu said hoarsely. âIf youâre still willing to come out with me next time, Iâll treat you to a meal.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tan Rou said firmly, âLiang Lu, you have to remember one thing. We will always be you. You will always be our friend. This will never change with me!â
âAnd me.â Li Li said, âAlthough I was a little afraid of you at first, after we spent some time together, 1 realized that youâre actually a very gentle person. Youâre not fierce at all. If you are still willing to be friends with us, then treat me as a friend for life. If anyone bullies you in the future, tell me and I will help you deal with them.â
âAlthough we havenât known each other for long, Iâve already treated you as my good friend. As long as you need my help, Iâll definitely help you!â Tian Tian said.
âLiang Lu, 1 donât know you very well. If we didnât come to the Capital to study together, perhaps we wouldnât have spoken much. I donât have many friends,â Xu Yan said.â But 1 care about every single one of them. So, letâs continue being friends!â
Finally, it was Lu Qing. He looked at Liang Lu and said in an unprecedentedly gentle tone, âYour school is still quite a distance away from here. Itâs getting late. Let me send you back.â
Liang Lu was stunned. âWhy are you sending me back?â
Lu Qing said, âItâs too dark. Iâm afraid you might fall when you walk. If you fall, you wonât be able to boss us around anymore..â
