Even if Liang Yueze were in Yuan City the previous day, he would certainly be back in Jindo City that day. That was Lu Xingzhi's educated guess.
He was as familiar with Liang Yueze as he was with himself. Lu Xingzhi could empathize with Liang Yueze's emotions during that long year about half a year ago.
He probably did not want Luo Ruoran to leave just like that, which is why Liang Yueze did not accompany her to the airport, even if he were in Jindo City that day.
There was one thing that Lu Xingzhi did not understand. If he could not bear the thought of his wife leaving, why did he leave her in the first place? Even if she had a harsh demeanor, she was still not as bad as Liang Yueze.
If Liang Yueze did not want someone to leave him, that person would not be able to fly away even if they were to gain wings.
Unless he did not want that person to stay.
Even though he wanted her to stay, he did not have the heart to get her to remain with him.
It was a highly conflicting emotion. Lu Xingzhi could feel the strain and pain in Liang Yueze's heart through the phone.
"It's pointless." Liang Yueze, who had been exposed, made no additional comment. "I've asked Eldest Brother to email you the original report from the hospital. Did you receive it? Revisions have been made to the report. It had been modified from immediate kin to no blood ties at all."
"I got it." Lu Xingzhi sighed. It was one of his flaws; he did not know how to comfort someone.
It was the same as when Jiang Yao paid him little attention. Even though he was irritated, anxious, and at a loss, he did not know what to do about it. He did not know how to change the situation.
That sense of helplessness was akin to expecting him to confront an army alone. Even if he had to do that, he would not have to scowl at his adversary.
