Chapter 55
Han Liuhai reveals to An Chuxia Qilu doesn’t have real childhood friends . Their high family status has people getting close to him because of his money and connections, not in spite of it .
He’s always wanted to make friends but time and time again, the people he befriends break their promises . Since then, he’s lost his trust in people . His personality changes to something more volatile . He smiles one minute, and in the next, stab a person on the belly .
It was after kindergarten when he met other children with similar family status . Xiao Mingluo and Ling Hanyu have become his… sunflower . Their bond normalized him . But still, he prefers living a more solitary existence . He is suspicious of anyone . He distrusts people, and he hates anyone suddenly appearing next to him and in his thoughts .
She doesn’t know why, but when Han Liuhai speaks about his son, his expression becomes inscrutinable . But just as quickly, it reverts to being normal . She suddenly dismisses her thoughts .
After hearing Qilu’s story, Chuxia’s heart is suddenly filled with sadness .
Her family may have been poor but she doesn’t lack true friends . Her friends are sincere despite their low status . Her childhood was very lively and happy .
But children from rich families have poor childhood memories . They don’t have actual friends . Perhaps, it is ordinary for poor people to have friends, while it’s a luxury for the rich .
She’s suspects he doesn’t trust because he doesn’t want to be lonely, but why does he suddenly hate her?
She suddenly understood Han Qilu .
“Han Shushu, I think I know what you’re trying to tell me . ” She flashes a pleasant smile .
“You know, he is a good boy,” he says . “There are times when he is like a wayward three- year-old child, but I hope in time, you can understand him a little more . ”
An Chuxia nods . ”I will, Han Shushu . ”
Han Lu Hai waves his hand and says, “Do not call me Han Shushu . Call me bofu . Calling me Han Shushu makes us feel like we are strangers . ”
An Chuxia smiles and calls him bofu .
“Well, it’s about nine o’clock . I’ll see you at breakfast? I’m off to see your bomu,” Han Liuhai says before heading for the stairs .
This is one of those moments she truly envies Qilu . Although his father looks very stern, her heart already loves him like a father . And maybe it’s because she grew up without one . She likes him treating her like his feral child .
She wipes the tear in her eye before mounting the steps . Sighing, she remembers today’s homework still needs to be finished!
While in the other side of town, Xiao Mingluo’s home is not as harmonious .
“Are you alright? You really want to sleep here?” Xiao Mingluo asks . He answers the door in his white robe . He looks like he’s been woken from sleep .
“What, you’re kicking me out?” Qilu jumps on the bed .
Confused, Xiao Mingluo says, “If your mom is looking to blame me, I don’t want to be your scapegoat . Don’t take advantage of me . Go home . ”
Han Qilu walks over to Mingluo and cups the back of his neck . “You really want me to go back?”
