However, at this time, City A.

Lu Li was still immersed in great grief, and the atmosphere of the entire Lu family fell into an extremely depressed atmosphere.

Lu Zizhao and Lu Zijin have never gone to school since Xia Liu's death, and Mao Shuhang has always been with Lu Zijin at Lu's house, during which Ai Lewen also came to see Lu Zizhao several times.

However, the saddest thing is still Lu Li.

Since Xia Liu's absence, the originally high-spirited Lu Li seems to have become a lot more decadent overnight, and even locked himself in his room all day, not even wanting to come out to eat.

This continued until Lu Li returned from the border seas.

The military district of City A specially sent people to send condolences, and also gave Xia Liu a special meritorious service.

But all this is false for Lu Li, he only knows that his Liuliu will never come back.

"Daddy, you can eat something."

Lu Zizhao instructed the nanny to cook a meal, and he personally brought it to Lu Li's room.

Seeing that his father had lost a full circle of weight, Lu Zizhao's heart was also very uncomfortable.

"Well, you can put it there." Lu Li was holding a small bottle in his hand, which was a pendant.

The bottle is a beautiful transparent crystal with a little gray powder inside.

This is the part that Lu Li left behind after lifting Xia Liu's ashes in the sea that day.

He deliberately made a transparent crystal bottle, just to hold Xia Liu's ashes.

In this way, he will be able to take Xia Liu with him anytime and anywhere.

Reaching out and rubbing the crystal bottle, a trace of pain flashed in Lu Li's eyes.

Ever since he returned to City A, he has been feeling restless, and this feeling has made him very uncomfortable, as if something important is going to happen.

And he also has a very strong feeling that Xia Liu is not actually dead.

But he didn't tell anyone about it.

Because Xia Liu's death has almost become a certainty, he himself has to believe that it is true.

After Lu Zizhao put the food in his hand on the table, he stood aside and did not go out.

He knew that if he didn't watch Lu Li eat the meal, when the nanny and aunt came to clean up that afternoon, they would definitely take it away.

Sensing that Lu Zizhao did not leave, Lu Li raised his eyes and glanced at him.

"Why aren't you leaving?"

"Dad......" Lu Zizhao wanted to speak and stopped, he glanced at the small crystal bottle in Lu Li's hand, gritted his teeth and said, "I know that my mother's death makes you sad, but you can't do this to your own body, I believe that if my mother knows, she will definitely be unhappy." ”

Hearing about Xia Liu, Lu Li's eyes flashed, he stood up and looked at his son, who was already as tall as himself, with a little relief in his originally godless eyes.

This is his and Xia Liu's son, who is already so old.

"I know, if you put the food here, I'll eat it, I'm not as fragile as you think."

Looking at Lu Li's somewhat relaxed expression, Lu Zizhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Li's temperament is known to everyone in the Lu family, if he doesn't want to do something, it is useless for anyone to persuade or force.

Just like when he just learned that his mother was dead, in the few days he was in the border sea, he really didn't eat anything, no matter who persuaded him, it was useless.

Since he now took the initiative to say that he would eat it himself, Lu Zizhao also put his mind at ease.

"Then Dad, you remember to eat, I'll go out first, and I'll let my aunt come up and clean up later."

"yes, okay."

Lu Li nodded lightly.

Lu Zizhao said a few words uneasily, and then left.

He is the only male member of the Lu family, and after Xia Liu's death, Lu Li began to care about things, and even handed over all the power in his hands to his deputy general.

And the other affairs of the Lu family have been handled by Lu Zizhao alone recently.

Thanks to the Lu family's education of boys, Lu Li and Xia Liu would take him to deal with things when Lu Zizhao was not big, so that he would not be in a hurry.

But recently Xia Liu died, the affairs of the Lu family have suddenly increased, and there are even more people who are eyeing Xia Liu's forces, so it still makes Lu Zizhao a little anxious.

Albert has also been silently helping Lu Zizhao.

When it was inconvenient for him to talk about many things as an outsider, he would explain them to Lu Zizhao in private and teach him how to deal with them.

Lu Zizhao was surprised by how Elewen was so proficient in the way of the head of the family, and at the same time, he was also very moved.

In just a few days, with the help of Elewen, Lu Zizhao already faintly has a little bit of the demeanor of the head of the Lu family.

Lu Li sat in the room, still holding the small urn in his hand, and after he rubbed it lightly twice, he put the bottle back on his neck and began to eat the meal sent by Lu Zizhao.

He remembered Xia Liu's previous wish, which was to put down the affairs in the army and go out to travel the world with him, but this wish has never been realized.

Lu Li has always had the intention of retiring in recent years, but the army has always refused to let him go.

Until something happened now.

Lu Centrifugal was a little bitter at the bottom, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch the urn on his neck.

"Ryulu, shall I take you around the world?"

The room was naturally quiet, and no one answered Lu Li's words.

"Let's go to the Maldives, which you've always wanted to go, okay? Didn't you say you liked the scenery there? Shall we go there at the first stop? ”

Lu Li hurriedly finished eating the rice in the bowl, pushed the dishes and chopsticks aside, got up and began to clean up.

When the nanny and aunt came up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, she saw such a scene-

The room was in a mess, obviously someone had turned it over, Lu Li stood in the middle of the messy room, pursing a thin lip, and at his feet, there was a suitcase that he hastily packed out.

"Admiral...... What are you...... Going out? ”

Lu Li nodded silently, "Well, I'm going to take Liuliu out for a while, you can clean up here, I'll go first." ”

Dropping a word, Lu Li left in a hurry.

When he went downstairs with his suitcase, Lu Li found that Lu Zizhao and Lu Zijin happened to be downstairs, and the two seemed to be talking about something.

Seeing Lu Li's arrival, Lu Zijin took the lead in getting up from the sofa and screamed.

"Daddy."

She can't stop crying almost every day these days, so she looks very haggard, her eyes and nose are red, and her lips are a little chapped.

Seeing the suitcase at Lu Li's feet, she asked with some confusion, "Dad, are you going out?" ”

When Lu Zizhao heard this, he also stretched out his head to look, and sure enough, he saw the big suitcase at Lu Li's feet.

"Dad, is there an urgent mission in the army?"

He looked at the suitcase, and then at all, Lu Li's face was full of urgency, and his first reaction was that he felt that it must be something that was in a hurry in the army, so he was so anxious.

"No, it's not, I want to give myself and your mother a vacation, we're going on a trip."

Hearing their doubts, the corners of Lu Li's mouth hooked a faint smile, thinking that he was going to travel with his most beloved woman next, he was very happy in his heart, and his hand unconsciously touched the glass bottle containing Xia Liu's ashes around his neck.

"Travel? You and Mom? ”

The words he said were like thunder on the ground, and the two of them stood up directly from the stool in surprise.

"Yes, and your mother."

The smile on the corner of Lu Li's mouth widened a little more, and they hurriedly said goodbye, "I'll leave first, otherwise I won't be able to catch the plane." ”

Before Lu Zijin and the others could say goodbye to him, he had already disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"You say, is it really good for Dad to look like this?"

She quickly pulled out a piece of paper from the table, stopped the tears that welled up again, and looked at her father so excited, not knowing what to say.

"It's good, at least he won't lock himself in the house, as long as Dad is happy, let him do what he wants."

Lu Zizhao sighed deeply and answered her question, his heart was also extremely heavy.

"You're right, as long as he's happy, let him go."

Looking at him, Lu Zijin collected his tears and smiled at him.

"I'm going to class, I'm going to be late." Lu Zizhao raised his hand and looked at his watch, the time on it reminded him that he was late for class.

"I'm out too."

Hearing him say this, Lu Zijin also looked at the time, only to find that she was going to be late, so frightened that she hurriedly took two slices of bread, and followed behind Lu Zizhao, and the two of them went out in such a hurry.

Lu Li on the other side has already arrived at the airport.

He received his boarding pass from the ticket office and sat in the departure hall, his resolute face as sharp as a knife, and his nervousness, excitement, expectation, and heartache could be seen in his eyes.

Lu Li was nervous and excited, because he was finally going to travel with Xia Liu, and he hoped that their trip would be pleasant, but the heartache was that he went out with Xia Liu in this way.

While thinking, his hand unconsciously touched the ashes belonging to Xia Liu around his neck.

The whole person fell into a lot of entanglement and pain, yes, his strength and his smile were all for Lu Zizhao to see.

He was their father, and at the beginning, it was a little unbearable, but later, he had to do it, because he was the strong backing of the children, and if he all fell, how could they protect themselves?

"Jingle bell...... Jingle bell ......"

Just as he was thinking, the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated in his arms.

Lu Li looked at the number on his mobile phone, and for a while, his heart was full of protest, and he didn't want to answer the phone very much.
