Back to the Old House

Lu Gan laughed.

“Are you surprised?”

“Of course! You’re too good at keeping it a secret!”

Even though Huang Hao had been accompanying Lu Gan to his check-ups, he did not know at all.

!!

Lu Gan could tell that Huang Hao was genuinely happy for him. He said from the bottom of his heart, “Thank you.”

Ever since Lu Gan woke up from the car accident, his friends tried their best to help him, especially Huang Hao. Needless to say, Lu Gan was very grateful, but he never showed it till now.

Huang Hao laughed nonchalantly.

“Why are you being so polite with me? We grew up together. I’ve even seen you naked!”

Huang Hao smiled and helped Lu Gan put his wheelchair in the trunk. Then, they entered the car.

‘I can’t believe it. My brother’s legs have recovered! I’m so happy!’

...

Another thought crossed Huang Hao’s mind and he asked, “Does Song Ci know about this?”

“It’ll be a surprise. Once this is over, I’m going to see her.”

Huang Hao laughed.

“I’m going to tell Mi Qilu and the others later. I bet they’ll be just as happy.”

“There’s no hurry. Let’s talk about it again after this matter is over. Besides, it’ll be safer.”

“Okay. I’ll keep it a secret for you.”

Huang Hao felt that Lu Gan’s words made sense.

After driving for about half an hour, they arrived at the Lu family’s old house. Huang Hao stopped the car and looked at Lu Gan worriedly.

“I’ll go with you.”

“No need. Just wait for me here. I have to do this myself.”

Lu Gan got out of the car, took his wheelchair, and sat on it expressionlessly.

...

Huang Hao was still a little worried.

“Give me a call if you need anything. Don’t be rash. I’m right here.”

“Alright.”

Lu Hongyong was watching television and drinking tea in the living room. He heard the door opening and turned around.

“Lu Gan? Why are you here?”

Lu Hongyong was surprised.

“We need to talk.”

Lu Hongyong turned off the television and headed to the study room. He went up the stairs but suddenly realized that Lu Gan was not following him.

Lu Gan stayed still in front of the staircase.

‘Oh, right. He can’t walk up the stairs and there’s no one to help him.’

Lu Hongyong turned around and walked down the stairs.

...

“Let’s talk in the living room.”

Lu Gan looked at the stairs and said, “How long have I been like this?”

Lu Hongyong stopped in his tracks.

The father and son looked at each other.

Lu Gan’s eyes were filled with sorrow.

“It’s been almost a year since my legs were disabled. Yet, this house hasn’t changed at all. There’s no elevator in the past or present. There won’t be one in the future either.”

Lu Hongyong was caught off guard. Ever since the incident, they were on bad terms. So, he did not bother installing an elevator at all.

Lu Hongyong’s feelings for his son were complicated. He loved him for being an outstanding son. However, after the incident, Lu Gan gave up on himself and married a gold digger.

Moreover, Lu Heng’s inheritance was all given to Lu Gan. That made Lu Hongyong worried because he might lose power in regard to the Lu Corporation.
