Chapter 401 Lu Mingdong's Side Story 2
Lu Yuanqing didn't know how he had turned seventy.
He's actually lived this long.
But I had a feeling that he wouldn't live much longer.
Even if he were to live a healthy life without any illness or disaster for some reason, he would still have a gut feeling that he wouldn't live much longer in this world.
Lu Yuanqing remained calm and composed.
He even seemed a little smug and proud.
There shouldn't be anyone in this world who could be so at ease after knowing they don't have much time left to live!
He can do it, so he's quite proud of it.
When Lu Mingdong said he wanted to take a vacation and stay home with him for a while, Lu Yuanqing fell silent.
In this family, no one can compare to Lu Mingdong when it comes to intelligence.
Their achievements speak for themselves!
That's solid proof!
He wasn't sure whether Lu Mingdong had any idea about his background.
This kid, even at such a young age, already knew how to scheme against him and trick him into revealing information.
Lu Yuanqing had no idea how far Lu Mingdong had guessed, nor did he know what Lu Mingdong thought about it.
The uncle and nephew tacitly agreed never to discuss this issue.
However, no sooner had he celebrated his 70th birthday than Lu Mingdong took a vacation, moved to a courtyard house with Cheng Xia, and informed him that he would be staying at home for a year.
Lu Yuanqing: "..."
I was a little confused.
He had just had a premonition that he didn't have long to live.
Did Lu Mingdong guess it too?
Is it really that amazing?
Lu Mingdong didn't care about his wide-eyed stare or what he was saying. While Cheng Xia led the maid to the room to tidy up, he calmly made tea in the courtyard.
After a series of practiced tea-making steps, Lu Mingdong poured a cup and placed it in front of Lu Yuanqing.
"Why do you suddenly want to take a vacation? We were telling you to retire last year, but you said you still had the energy to continue your experiments." Lu Yuanqing asked directly after finishing a cup of tea.
Lu Mingdong poured him another cup and said with a smile, "I just suddenly realized I'm not young anymore. I need to rest for a bit, and then we can continue!"
Lu Yuanqing: "You really do love science!"
He regretted once again his guidance of Lu Mingdong.
He's really getting old; his thoughts have changed, and he can no longer be as resolute as he was when he was young.
“You said it! A technologically advanced nation!” Lu Mingdong laughed.
Lu Yuanqing: "..."
He used to think that it was a waste for Lu Mingdong to have such a smart brain if he didn't use it to contribute to the country.
His decision was correct, and the facts prove it.
Lu Mingbei's achievements prove that his decision was correct.
"But your third uncle is old."
When he gets old, he will feel sorry for Lu Mingdong, who has dedicated his whole life to his work and has not had a freer or more fulfilling life.
Lu Mingdong shook his head. "Third Uncle, I don't regret it. And don't feel that my interference has deprived me of my freedom."
He only felt a sudden pang of regret when he was facing Lu Yuanqing and Cheng Xia.
Especially as he saw that they were getting older, his regret grew even more.
But he was rational.
Seeing how well the country is doing now, how people are living good lives, and looking at all the achievements he has made, he has no regrets left.
He only regretted that he had missed out on many of their lives.
But he never regretted not being free or having a more exciting life.
He was content to remain in the background.
He didn't regret it, but Lu Yuanqing did. "Given our family's circumstances, you could have lived a very comfortable life even if you had been a spoiled brat."
"Pfft!" Lu Mingdong bent down to pour him tea. "Third Uncle, do I still have the potential to be a spoiled brat?"
His lowered head concealed his eyes, which were filled with emotion.
His third uncle has really gotten old.
Never before had he so clearly realized that Lu Yuanqing was getting old.
It seems like only yesterday that Lu Yuanqing was so eager to nurture them into successful individuals.
Especially after Lu Yuanqing went to Hong Kong and made billions in stocks, he would always remind his family members at every family gathering not to become complacent and lose their ambition, but to have their own life goals and create their own life value.
It seemed that it would break his heart if they failed to live up to their potential and became pleasure-seeking individuals.
Lu Yuanqing treats them well and wants to see them all succeed, which Lu Mingdong understands.
However, Lu Yuanqing, who is about to turn seventy (men celebrate nine years, women celebrate a full year, meaning Lu Yuanqing is only sixty-nine years old now), actually said that he wanted them to live out their lives easily.
No setbacks, no worries, just enjoy life like this.
"Third Uncle, do I make you proud?" Lu Mingdong blinked, burying all his emotions in his heart.
Lu Yuanqing said earnestly and firmly, "What I am most proud of in this world is having you children!"
It was these few people who made him experience an extraordinary life.
In his past life, he died too young.
Although he was single and had no ties at the time, he was very satisfied with that kind of life.
I wonder what his life would have been like if he hadn't come into this world.
Although, when he first came here, he was troubled every day, not having enough to eat, not being able to sleep well, and not having a mobile phone to play with.
……
However, no matter how many "althoughs" there were, he said very firmly and confidently that he did not regret coming here.
Lu Yuanbo has a volatile temper, but he is the most obedient to him.
Lu Yuanhuan is gentle, kind, and strives to live her life well.
Lu Mingxi is opinionated, goal-oriented, and persistent in his efforts.
Lu Mingdong is intelligent, capable, and understands his thoughts best.
Lu Mingnan, who stays true to his original aspiration and dedicates his life to passing on his craft.
Cheng Xiaobao has childhood trauma, but is very well-behaved.
The twins Lu Mingbei and Lu Mingzhong are fond of fighting and arguing, but they are also very united when faced with a problem.
These children he raised are all living fulfilling lives and becoming valuable members of society.
Although there were some minor conflicts during the years they lived together, and some issues with their personalities were discovered.
However, Lu Yuanqing felt that with their company, he truly felt that his life was without regrets.
……
Not long after Lu Mingdong and Cheng Xia officially moved back to the courtyard house, Lu Yuanbo moved back with Xie Qianyu and their grandson.
"That brat Chengwu, I told him to get married earlier, but he didn't want to. Now he's married so late, and I'm already so old, and I still have to take care of his son!" Lu Yuanbo said indignantly.
Lu Chengwu married late, and his only son is only two years old, just the age when he can move and run.
Lu Yuanbo said that his old bones really couldn't hold on any longer.
"Third Grandpa!" Little Tangyuan rushed to Lu Yuanqing's side with her words slurred.
"Third Brother is really popular with kids; every child in the family likes you!" Xie Qianyu said with a smile.
Lu Yuanbo: "..."
Lu Yuanqing: "..."
