Bringing the Nation's Husband Home - Chapter 411

Chapter 411

Qiao Anhao walked down the stairs to Lu Jinnian . She took a glance at him, then bent to enter the car . Before she could fasten her seat belt, he had already done it for her .  

After entering his car, Lu Jinnian fastened his own seat belt and asked her for Zhao Meng's address . While he was keying it into the GPS, his fingers couldn't stop trembling . After having struggled through it, he started the engine . Suddenly, he slammed the breaks . Pausing for some time, he came back to his senses and turned the steering wheel out of Mian Xiu Garden .  

The entire journey, they remained silent, only speaking once when Qiao Anhao held out her phone to send Zhao Meng a voice message, informing her that she would arrive in about half an hour .  

When they were nearing Zhao Meng's house, Lu Jinnian didn't seem to have any intention of slowing down . Only when Qiao Anhao spoke to remind him of the location did he slam the brakes . He looked out the window and saw that they had passed Zhao Meng's house by about two hundred meters . "I'll make a turn . " 

"It's fine, it isn't that far, I'll just walk over . " Qiao Anhao smiled .  

Lu Jinnian's jaw tightened as he stared ahead silently . After a long while, he replied, "Okay . " 

Qiao Anhao reached for the keys in her bag, passing them over to Lu Jinnian .  "The keys to Mian Xiu Garden . " 

Lu Jinnian didn't reach for them .  Qiao Anhao placed them in a compartment in the car before grabbing her bag .  "I'll go now . " 

"Okay," Lu Jinnian replied robot-like . After a while, when he seemed to have realized what was happening, he hurriedly alighted from the car to help her with her luggage .  

"Thank you . " Qiao Anhao reached out to take her suitcase, but when she grabbed onto it, Lu Jinnian tightened his own grip .

 "Qiao Qiao . . " 

Qiao Anhao lifted her head to look at him .  

Lu Jinnian opened his mouth, his gaze faltering . After a long while, he just said, "Goodbye . "

Qiao Anhao forced a smile, replying, "Goodbye . " 

Lu Jinnian tightened the grip he had on the luggage, then loosened it, and tightened it yet again . In the end, he still let go of it .  

Qiao Anhao pushed the suitcase to her side before smiling one last time at him . She turned and tears started to pour down her face .  

Goodbye, Lu Jinnian .  

I have no idea how long it will take for me to stop loving you, but from now on, I will no longer naively hope for your love .  

Even though I blame you for killing our child, I would also want to thank you for the eight months you gave me . Thank you for letting me understand that you would never love me .  

Goodbye, my youth, goodbye, my love .  

Goodbye, those thirteen years of beautiful pain .  

Lu Jinnian stood paralyzed . He looked as Qiao Anhao lugged her suitcase away . When he couldn't see her anymore, he still remained there until a traffic police came up to warn him off . He apologized to the officer and drove away .  

As he drove, he was suddenly confused, he had no idea where he could go .
