To Love You Again

Chapter 198 - Burial Site

While feelings had been talked out and discovered, the two in LG club were having their little discussion.

It was one hour after the play.

"Sigh. That's so emotional. I am about to cry." Guan Gao Huan fakely wiped the unshed tears under his eyes.

Lu Jin ignored him and took a sip on the tea that his butler prepared for him.

"Say,?I am impressed. Your little brother actually had skills. Did you not really trained him in acting all along? That emotionless brother of yours can actually be 'Prince Ethan'. " Guan Gao Huan said amusedly.

Lu Jun glanced at him. But he still did not say anything.

He looked at his cup. It was his first time seeing his brother so lively again. In a short span of time, Lu Yin Ze changed. The gloominess was gone. He was just like a normal teenage boy who was leaving a normal life.

"Say, is the?play feels familiar?" Guan Gao Huan reached out for the wine that the butler placed on the table.

"A snake watching in the shadows while everything is played in broad daylight. Was it familiar?" Guan Gao Huan had that crazy smile on his face.

"But we are, no, your father, is not a snake, but a lion hunter instead."

"Cut the crap. Why you even watched the play? You have many things in your hands." Lu Jin finally spoke.

"Well, it's your little bro's play, why I would not be interested?"

Lu Jin looked at him then he said nonchalantly.

"Was it really because of my brother? Or was it because your fiance was in the play?"

Gao Huan smiled. "Why are you questioning me if you already know the answer?"

"I thought you will be troubled for a while by Old Lu. But looks like he had no time for you as he was busy supporting his other grandson. Are you disappointed?" Gao Huan added to teased Lu Jin.

Lu Jin did not answer. No one knows what behind those detached eyes.

"I'm not. It's good to be invisible for a while."

Guan Gao Huan turned silent.

'Invisible...'

"By the way, I am trusting LG to you."

"You're going already?" Guan Gao Huan was stunned. Lu Jin was given four years. It was a long time for them but a short time for trampling those two from the south.

"Father, already prepared everything."

Gao Huan's eyes went wide.

"That fast?! " But then he calmed down. It was possible for that man.

"Who am I kidding? That is nothing for him. He even managed to infiltrate the Guan family and roped in some of the Xiongs." Guan Gao Huan shook his head. The most terrifying person for him was that man.

Lu Jin put down his cup.

"I am going to the Lu Mansion in city Z in three days."

"What?! Why! That Old Lu would roast you before he sees you." Old Lu might not be able to see Lu Jin since city Z was very far from the capital where the Lu Main Mansion was. But Old Lu had eyes and ears everywhere, especially on his mansions.

"I need to see Mom before I go. I will not be able to go on her death anniversary this year and for the next four years." Lu Jin said.

Guan Gao Huan sighed. He knew what his role was.

"Alright. I will prepare things."

Master Lu doesn't know that Lu Jin actually visited his daughter's grave every year. It was one month before the anniversary date. Lu Jin goes there disguising someone from the Guan household who wanted to pay respects to the friend of the Guan family. Because of the friendship between the two wives of the guan and Lu family, they have free access to the burial sites of each mansion to pay respects. Lu Jin had been doing these as a representative of Guan Gao Huan and brought a banquet of blue roses every year.

Lu Jin looked at his own cup. He wanted to visit his Mom before he flew to the south.

***********************

Xiong Zhi was a bit dazed as everything happened so fast.

The professor gave them a vacation for the rest of the week while the other stage plays of the students were scheduled. They could choose to watch or not. As a student, they planned to watch it first but Song Xuantin, this busybody learned that Lu Yin Ze would not attend the play with them and would visit his mom's grave. Song Xuantin asked if they could go with him and be introduced to his mom. Lu Yin Ze appreciated Song Xuantin's initiative and prepared for their journey to City Z.

The supposed play that they about to attend turned into a trip to City Z.

"H-how long did we need to travel?" Xiong Zhi who got dragged by Song Xuantin finally spoke.

"One hour at most, we will use my jet plane." Lu Yin Ze said.

The car arrived at the Lu Mansion. The pilot was already prepared for their flight.

Xiong Zhi wanted to back out. After that wonderful night, she did not meet Linfeng in the next morning. Since there was no class, Xiong Zhi went to IHZHI to settle some projects that needed her consent.

She planned to spend the rest of her days with Linfeng. Just being with him in the same car was enough for her. But it had already been three days and she did not see any shadow of Linfeng. Even in morning rites, Linfeng was not present. She asked Butler Zhou about Linfeng's whereabouts and Butler Zhou answered that there were matters at Zhou mansion that needed Linfeng's presence. Xiong Zhi understood it. Linfeng was not yet her official butler. So he could go anywhere and it was not yet in his obligations to be on her sides always. It was just she misses him and was excited to see him again.

But since he was busy, she would be an understanding 'future-lover' and would wait for him.

Xiong Zhi thought about it. Coming back and forth from the capital to City Z would take at least 2 hours at most. They might spend four hours in the Lu Mansion. So it would occupy most of her day. It means one more whole day to not be able to see Linfeng.

Should she just told them she couldn't go now? It was not like she was needed.

"Hey! Let's go Zhi! Let's support Yin Ze!" Song Xuantin shouted at her. The loud engine of the jet plane was deafening.

Xiong Zhi debated. Could she not go?

Gu Zhen glanced at her.

"You don't want to go?"

Xiong Zhi was about to nod when Gu Zhen speak.

"Be there at least as his friend. Don't you see how happy he was when Xuantin told him we are all going? That guy treasures you a lot. Your presence is very important." Gu Zhen was usually quiet and doesn't care about things. But now he had a group of friends that he said he doesn't really care about, but in reality, he was a bit mindful of them. Even though the least he liked was Lu Yin Ze, he could move his lazy bum and support him.

Xiong Zhi was stunned. Her mind was occupied by Linfeng that she doesn't manage to caught on that.

Gu Zhen glanced at her once more before he walked forward.

Xiong Zhi followed.

Right. She was not just a woman who loves someone, she was also a friend.

The jet roared loudly towards the sky.

*****************

City Z was in the corner part of China. Its sides were facing the pacific sea.

The Lu Mansion in city Z was enormous as the Lu Main mansion in the capital. After the main mansion, this Lu Mansion in city Z was the most well taken care of. It was for one reason, the graveyard of the Lu's generation was there.

The Lu Mansion was majestic and enormous. Like the mansion in the capital, this one was designed like a castle in western countries back in 1890s.

They were toured first in this big mansion. The group could not help but opened their mouth from time to time to gasped in amazement. Even Xiong Zhi who lived in Xiong Main mansion was amazed. This place brought them in the 1890's. It looks so historical. Everything was an antique. For sure every little thing here costs a fortune. The Lu family was really overwhelming with money.

Lu Yin Ze had been here before. The last time he was here was eight years ago when his mother got buried. It was a sad memory. But he doesn't feel sad at all by coming here. Because he was not alone. Those gasped he heard from time to time made him smiled and feel proud.

And more importantly, he felt amused to watch Xiong Zhi's slight reaction of amazement. She was so cute.

After taking a break and eating delicious pastries from the maids, the group decided to meet Lu Yin Ze's mom.

They went to the back of the Lu Mansion.

As they arrived, the group could not helped but gasped in astonishment.

The back of Lu Mansion was an empty wide grassland. Nope, wide was not enough to describe how large the area was. There was tombstone erected in every two square meters.

It was like a burial site. But instead of a grave, pots of ashes were placed carefully in a small area below the tombstones.
