Chapter 67 - The stars in little Lu Jue's eyes crumbled. (1)

Ning Zhi always thought that little Lu Jue lacks emotions and, even if he remembered her, it would just be a very faint impression.

But now, she had suddenly learned that not only did he remember her, he even looked forward to meeting her again.

Ning Zhi felt her heart being poked by a chubby little hand. Oh, how’s little Lu Jue so cute?

Looking at the adolescence boy who was half-squatting down in front of her, Ning Zhi couldn't help but reached out and stroke him on his head. His hair, nice and soft, laid docilely over his forehead. He couldn’t be more docile.

“I’m sorry it took me so long to return.”

She didn’t know that he would wait for her.

Lu Jue didn’t say anything. For the first time, he reached out voluntarily and wrapped his hand around Ning Zhi’s wrist. His voice hoarse, “Forgive you.”

What was a chubby little hand now had very defined fingers. His fingers slender and strong. Ning Zhi just let him hold her hand. Her eyes curved from smiling. “You will forgive me just like that?”

Lu Jue kept his eyes lowered and didn’t say anything.

The sun was beating down on them. It had no effect on her but the same could not be said about Lu Jue. He could get heat stroke in this temperature.

Lu Jue held Lu Jue’s hand. “Let me take you home.”

The Lu family had already launched into a panic by now.

Mother Lu almost passed out when she found out that Lu Jue was lost. Father Lu sent a lot of men out to look for Lu Jue. He didn’t look much better either.

“Sir, we saw that Young Master had gotten onto a bus from the surveillane video. We even looked through the bus’s video and are now searching around the area where he got off.”

“You must find Xiao Jue soon.” Mother Lu’s eyes were red and the corners of her eyes were swollen. She had been crying for a while already.

The idea of Lu Jue being out there all by himself made her worry.

Next to her, Lu Shenyuan, who was dressed neatly and cleanly comforted her, “I’m sure little brother will be alright.”

Mother Lu wiped away the tears that welled up in her eyes. “Xiao Jue doesn’t know to avoid cars. I can’t imagine him running around blindly in the middle of the streets. He also doesn’t like to talk so he won’t ask anyone for direction, or help……”

The more Mother Lu thought about it, the more worried she became.

“Little brother is very smart. I am sure he will come home when he was done having fun.” Lu Shenyuan had the servant brought his mother a cup of ginseng tea to calm her. He then sat there quietly and wouldn’t need to be looked after.

Mother Lu’s heart gripped tightly. The thoughts of her little son possibly getting hurt or running into bad people brought more tears to her eyes.

Father Lu’s handsome face looked unhappy and his eyes filled with ache. “Don’t worry. I promise I’ll find out son. You haven’t eaten lunch yet. Let me have the kitchen make you something.”

“I don’t have appetite.” Mother Lu’s voice was cracking. “I’m sure Xiao Jue hadn’t eaten either. What happens if he’s hungry? I don’t even know if he has money on him.”

Father Lu, too, was worried about his son. His wife’s words made him more worry.

“I’m sure little brother will be fine,” said Lu Shenyuan with certainty, as though he was comforting both his parents and himself.

“He’s right. I am sure Xiao Jue will be fine.” Mother Lu was an atheist but, now, she couldn't help but started praying for the safe return of her son.

Ning Zhi just experimented with 10 of her little suns and she only had 5 left now. She couldn’t afford to waste any more of them.

Where they were right now were some 10 bus stations away from the Lu’s mansion. She had no idea how Lu Jue even got there in the first place.

She brought Lu Jue with her onto a taxi and had him told the driver his address.

The car stopped in front of the Lu’s mansion and, as soon as Lu Jue got out of the car, the security guard quickly went to alert the butler that their second young master was back with an excited look.

Looking at Mother Lu running over with her eyes reddened and wanted to hug Lu Jue, Ning Zhi suddenly recalled Mother Lu telling her that Lu Jue had gotten lost once. She worried about him all night long and he was finally found at a hospital.

Lu Jue, who was lost, was hit by a car. The driver was so scared that he immediately took Lu Jue to the hospital. Luckily Lu Jue only had some scratches on his hand and nothing serious.

Mother Lu was still scared when she recounted the incident.

So, it was her who found the lost Lu Jue this time.

Ning Zhi couldn’t imagine what Lu Jue had experienced being lost for one whole night.
