Chapter 423 Who said I wanted to separate you?
"Don't worry about us. We'll just order takeout in a bit."
Lu Tingnian looked at the few dishes left on the table, then glanced at Qiao Luo beside him, and said helplessly.
Lu Hanlin: "What? This isn't enough for you?"
Lu Tingnian: "..."
"Grandpa Lu, please don't just eat the vegetables, have a bowl of soup too."
Look how hungry this old man is.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Luo quickly ladled out a bowl of soup and handed it over.
Lu Hanlin took the drink, took a sip, and nodded: "It tastes pretty good, but it's a bit salty."
As he spoke, he looked at the two of them and said, "You young people shouldn't have such strong flavors in your daily lives. A lighter diet is better for your health."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tingnian and Qiao Luo exchanged bewildered glances.
After finishing the rest of the dishes, Lu Hanlin said contentedly, "Alright, I'm full. I'll head back now. You can do as you please."
As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief he always carried to wipe his mouth, and stood up with his cane.
"Don't bother seeing me off."
After saying that, he leaned on his cane and headed towards the door.
Lu Tingnian and Qiao Luo, who were still sitting, looked at each other in bewilderment. Lu Tingnian, in particular, had been prepared to argue with his father, but he did not expect that his father would leave without saying a word to him.
This is wrong no matter what.
So he said to Qiao Luo, "Wife, you stay here, I'll go check on things."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Luo nodded.
Immediately, Lu Tingnian chased after Lu Hanlin.
Lu Hanlin had already reached the door. Butler Wang hadn't followed, since it was a matter between the father and son, and it wasn't appropriate for a servant like him to go along.
When he saw Lu Hanlin come out from inside, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly went to greet him: "Master."
Lu Hanlin nodded to him, but just as he was about to walk towards the car, Lu Tingnian caught up with him, panting.
"Wait... what is this...?"
Hearing this, Lu Hanlin turned around, his gaze sweeping over the panting handsome face, and frowned: "What? You're not used to not scolding you a couple of times, are you?"
Lu Tingnian had finally managed to catch his breath when he heard this sarcastic remark. He frowned.
"You must have come here for a reason."
He didn't believe that he had only come for this meal, and he was even less convinced that he would leave after just one meal.
Lu Hanlin: "What do you think the purpose is?"
Lu Tingnian: "You know perfectly well what's going on."
His words carried a hint of mild anger.
Lu Hanlin scoffed: "What do you mean I know perfectly well? Didn't I say on the phone before that I just wanted to see you? Now that you're doing well, what other purpose could I possibly have?"
His words carried a hint of reproach.
Lu Tingnian frowned and remained silent. He didn't believe his father's words. After all, based on his understanding of his father, it was impossible for him to come to see him just to check on him. If that were the case, the sun must have risen in the west.
"You don't need to try to shut me up with these words. You just saw it yourself. It's impossible for Qiao Luo and me to separate. Even if you have some ulterior motive, you're bound to fail. I advise you to give up as soon as possible."
Lu Hanlin found him utterly unreasonable.
"Who said I wanted to separate you two?"
He asked rhetorically.
Lu Tingnian thought to himself: Isn't this a rhetorical question?
"Who else could it be but you?"
Lu Hanlin: "..."
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't stand upright without his cane, he would definitely have hit him with the cane.
This unfilial son has been away from home for several years!
“Listen to me today. Since you’ve decided to be with her, live your life properly and stop being so high-profile and doing all that nonsense. The bigger the tree, the more the wind will blow against it. Do you understand that?”
Lu Tingnian was stunned.
