In others’ views, a legend naturally is someone who is cold and cruel.
However, on the contrary, he met almost all the strict requirements of Alex, and was able to ease the tense relationship between his parents and tried to make his mother happy. He knew everyone’s preferences in the family, and he would prepare a surprise for everyone’s birthday. When he was alive, the whole family was harmonious.
Others always comment that Luke is a genius, but only the Lu knows that the real genius is the man who died young.
Luke has only said something in brief, and Jenny keeps listening without interrupting.
Grandma didn’t tell her about these. If Luke didn’t say it, she will never know.
“It used to be my brother’s house. After he’s gone, the Lu sold it and later I bought it back.”
Speaking of this, Luke frowns, “everything inside was destroyed. What you see is that I bought it again later.”
It is just as the same.
After the members of the special troop died, they could not have tombstones or reveal their identity and family, in order to prevent the revenge from those people that they caught before. So after Kian’s death, Alex destroyed everything belonging to him.
When Luke mentions his brother, he looks cold, as if he is talking about a person who has nothing to do with him. But when he mentions that the house was sold and things were destroyed, his eyes shows sadness.
Jenny doesn’t say anything. She raises her hand and pats him on the shoulder.
After breakfast, they sits on the porch in the backyard for a while in the sun. Luke asks her what she wants to eat for dinner.
The place is remote, and the cleaners only have brought some simple ingredients, but nothing else.
“Fish, I want fish.”
Luke nods and looks at the lake in the distance.
“If you want to eat fish, go fishing yourself.”
Originally, Jenny thought that Luke would certainly fish, and she needs to do nothing.
When they are there, she finds that everything is not as she expected.
Luke doesn’t mean to fish at all. He sits down under the tree with a book in his arms, enjoying the wind leisurely and looking at the scenery of the lake from time to time.
Jenny holds the fishing rod in her hand, “hey, don’t you fish?”
“I don’t know how to fish.”
So Jenny spends the whole afternoon alone by the lake with a fishing rod.
The eat two sandwiches for lunch which are the rest of the morning.
Jenny is good at water sports. Her dad used to teach her when she was a child. What’s more, her uncle Allen liked to go to the sea very much, and often brought her to catch fish and shrimp. Thus, she has developed the relative skill.
In this afternoon, she gets a basket of fish, and she is so happy that she leaves things that troubles her behind.
When it’s almost sunset, looking back, she finds Luke is sleeping under the tree with his book covering the face, and the Little Cute is also sleeping at his feet.
She takes the basket and goes to the tree. Looking at the setting sun, she sighs, “it is so beautiful!”
The book on Luke’s face moves and slips down on Little Cute’s tail, which scares it into jumping into Luke’s arms.
Luke is stunned and opens his eyes suddenly. When he sees Little Cute, his face changes. He hesitates for a moment, then strokes its back, lifts it up and puts it on the ground frowning
He catches a glimpse of the fish in the basket and picks up the book.
“Let’s go home.”
Little Cute squats beside the basket, meowing.
Jenny touches its head and says, “shh. Little Cute, let’s go home.”
After returning home, it’s “chef” Luke’s show time.
