Chapter 59: Try Telling Her
Lu Gan’s words were obviously meant for someone specific. His hasty marriage was also related to Lu Heng’s death. When Huang Hao thought about this, he could not help but sigh.
In the public eye, Lu Heng’s death was an accident. However, Lu Gan speculated that it was a premeditated murder. The target was obviously Lu Heng, but Lu Gan might also be included. Ultimately, it was easier to catch them all in one fell swoop. Hence, Lu Gan deliberately let people spread rumors about him giving up on himself.
Regardless, Huang Hao did not believe the rumors. He remembered that someone had confessed to Lu Gan during their schooling days. The latter hated it. He said feelings take time to develop and love at first sight was ridiculous. Now, things were the complete opposite. He hastily got married and was supposedly in love with Song Ci even though they only spent a short time together.
Huang Hao thought to himself, ‘He’s probably trying to disguise himself and protect Lu Suo. This is the only logical conclusion.’
Lu Gan did not care about his own safety, but he definitely treasured Lu Suo. Huang Hao, Mi Qilu, and his other friends were very glad that Lu Suo survived the car accident. Otherwise, Lu Gan would have gone insane!
Lu Suo was still young, so Lu Gan tried to carry the burden all by himself. He had to stay alive so he could solve this incident and catch the culprit.
At times, Huang Hao hoped that it was really just an accident. He also hoped that Song Ci’s love for Lu Gan was real, that she married him without any ulterior motives. All he wanted was for his good friend to be happy, especially after experiencing such a heinous tragedy.
Song Ci and Lu Gan went to the private room of a hotel. Shortly after, Huang Hao and Su Youcheng arrived. Mi Qilu was the last to show up. As soon as he entered the room, he looked at Song Ci and Lu Gan. Then, he instantly asked, “Are the two of you really married?”
“Of course.”
Lu Gan’s expression was calm.
“This is happening way too fast.”
Mi Qilu sat down. He grabbed a slice of watermelon and began chewing it.
Lu Gan smiled.
“Are you envious?”
“When will you have your wedding ceremony?”
Mi Qilu asked.
Su Youcheng and Huang Hao stared at Lu Gan without uttering a word. They wanted to know as well!
Lu Gan turned to look at Song Ci.
She hesitated for a moment before saying gently, “We’ll talk about it later. There’s still work to do. I don’t want to be only known for my husband.”
Mi Qilu did not expect to hear such an answer. After all, Song Ci was in love with Lu Gan for many years. She finally got to be with him, so why was she delaying the wedding ceremony? He glanced at Lu Gan and asked, “You’re not in a hurry to hold the wedding ceremony either?”
Song Ci’s answer caught Lu Gan by surprise as well. If Lu Jingjing heard this, she would definitely think that Song Ci was only with him for fame and fortune. He suddenly felt a little regretful. If only Lu Jingjing was here today. He really wanted to see Song Ci’s reaction.
“Are you sure?”
Lu Gan asked.
Song Ci could tell from his expression and tone that he was teasing her again. She really wanted to hit him. However, this matter was not decided by her. Before the two of them got married, Lu Gan already stated that he had no plans of holding a wedding ceremony. Song Ci maintained her expression and slightly smiled.
“You’re all I need. I don’t care about anything else.”
Lu Gan nodded.
“That’s really touching.”
Then, he looked at his friends.
“Are you guys touched?”
His friends almost rolled their eyes. Why did they even come?!
“Touched.”
“Same.”
“Me too.”
Lu Gan felt satisfied and disappointed at the same time. If Lu Jingjing was around, he would have also asked if she was touched. What a pity.
After the celebration meal ended, Song Ci and Lu Gan got into his car.
Huang Hao could not help but send a message to Lu Gan.
[ Your marriage has something to do with Lu Heng, right? ]
[ What are you trying to say? ]
[ Does Song Ci know about this? ]
Lu Gan glanced at Song Ci who was beside him. She still had a relaxed smile on her face. When she noticed him looking at her, she blinked and smiled warmly.
“What’s wrong?”
Lu Gan did not say anything. Song Ci did not have to know.
When Lu Gan did not reply, Huang Hao sent another message.
[ You didn’t tell her, did you? Anyway, if she had really liked you for so many years, you should try to reciprocate her feelings. Love is mutual. I hope that you’ll have someone genuine to accompany you. ]
