Chapter 354: The Truth of Helplessness

Luo Jinyu slowly walked into the study, his brows deeply locked, like a knot that could not be untied.

His face was covered with gloomy clouds, as if the clouds had covered the moonlight, making it impossible for people to peek into the storm in his heart.

His eyes were deep and somber, revealing his troubles and anxieties, his steps steady but slightly tired, as if carrying endless worries.

He sat down at his desk, his fingers unconsciously fiddling with the pages, the air around him seemed to be filled with depression and dreness, making it impossible to ignore his sorrow.

Although he tried his best to suppress his emotions, the frowning brow and the deep wrinkles between his eyebrows revealed his inner turmoil.

His eyes were full of confusion and trouble, as if he was looking for answers.

After a while, Meng Haowen quickly entered the study.

Meng Haowen came to Luo Jinyu and told him that Xia Yang had been looking for him in the past few days.

He whispered, "General, Lord Overseer has been looking for you here, and he wants you to meet him."

When Luo Jinyu heard the news, he sighed and said, "I know, I'll go over early tomorrow morning, and there is nothing going on in his mansion recently."

Meng Haowen shook his head gently, "General Hui, my subordinates didn't find anything wrong."

"What about Green Lotus, how are you doing?"

"She's been in her yard lately, and she hasn't come out, and the two of them haven't met."

Luo Jinyu felt a slight feeling of discomfort in his heart, and he had an indescribable uneasiness.

He frowned slightly, and his doubts were even worse.

Luo Jinyu felt an inexplicable anxiety, he needed to have a good talk with Lu He.

Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen sat in the study and talked in a low voice.

Their language is concise and powerful, like two sharp swords that break through the air and go straight to the heart of the matter.

Luo Jinyu had a calm face and said word by word: "It can be determined that Shu Zhihan's loss of the child was caused by Lu He."

There was a hint of coldness in his voice, which made Meng Haowen couldn't help frowning.

When Luo Jinyu said this, he paused and took a deep breath, "Da Meng, I really didn't expect it to become like this, once upon a time, I also thought that she could have a good future with you, but it's a pity......

When Meng Haowen heard Luo Jinyu's words, his face became ugly.

"I didn't expect that." He said in a deep voice, "I always thought that Green Lotus was bold and very sincere, but now, ......."

Luo Jinyu looked at Meng Haowen, and after a long while, he slowly spoke: "It's too late to regret it now, as long as we find Lu He, figure this matter out, and then let her take the responsibility she should bear."

Meng Haowen was silent, and after a long while, he slowly spoke: "I understand what you mean, I will find her and ask for clarification."

He left the study and stepped into the moonlit night.

An irresistible force surged inside him, dragging him towards the courtyard of the green lotus.

The courtyard was quiet and deep, filled with a faint moonlight, as if draped in a silver veil.

He walked on the bluestone pavement, his steps firm, and every step seemed to respond to the call of his heart.

In the night, the water surface of the lotus pond glows with a faint silver light, and the lotus leaves sway gently in the breeze, as if whispering something.

He walked through the moonlit lotus pond and walked across the small arched stone bridge to the courtyard of the green lotus.

In the courtyard, he seemed to see Lu He sitting alone at the stone table, with a pot of tea in front of him, wafting out a faint fragrance.

This night, Meng Haowen stood at the gate of the courtyard of the green lotus, never leaving a single step.

His figure looked a little lonely in the moonlight, but it was extremely determined.

The night was getting deeper and the wind was cold, but Meng Haowen stood there like a sculpture without any wavering.

As the minutes passed, the night grew darker and darker.

The sun rises, and the golden light shines on the earth, bringing warmth and vitality to the world.

Green Lotus's personal maid walked out of the house and happened to see Meng Haowen, she couldn't help but be taken aback, her eyes widened, looking at him, as if she didn't expect his appearance.

She patted her chest in panic, then hurriedly turned around and went into the house to tell Midori the unexpected news.

Her steps were hurried, showing the panic and anxiety in her heart.

Green Lotus's personal maid has always been the closest person to Green Lotus, she knows Green Lotus's feelings for Meng Haowen, and she also understands that this news may make Green Lotus happy.

The moment she entered the room, she saw the green lotus.

Her musings were interrupted by the maid's arrival, and she looked at her with a premonition of unusual nervousness in her expression.

"Girl," the maid's tone was a little hurried, "that...... Vice Moon is coming."

Green Lotus's hand trembled slightly, she stabilized her mind, and a complex light flashed in her eyes.

"What did you say? Are you sure? When did he come? Where is it?"

Midori Lotus's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if racing through her chest.

Meng Haowen, this name is not unfamiliar to her, but this visit seems to bring a breeze of uneasiness.

She stood by the window, her eyes involuntarily looked out of the window, and she saw that under the tall plane tree, Meng Haowen's figure gradually became clear.

She remembered the last time she had met him, his gaze, like two swords, piercing into her heart.

Green Lotus tried to suppress her urge to escape, she knew that she couldn't escape Meng Haowen, just like she couldn't escape her fate.

His eyes, those eyes as deep as the sea, made her feel her heart beat even more violently.

The maid asked softly, "Girl, is Vice General Wen going to call him in outside the door?"

Green Lotus shook his head slightly and smiled lightly, "No need, I think I'd better go find him myself."

After hearing this, the little maid did not insist any longer, bowed slightly, and turned to leave.

Green Lotus looked at the back of the leaving, took a deep breath, and slowly stood up.

Although she was a little worried in her heart, she knew that she needed more courage and determination in the face of Meng Haowen.

She walked out of the room, and the oncoming breeze gently blew on her cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness.

She looked up and saw Meng Haowen with his back to her, standing in the courtyard with his hands in his hands, looking into the distance.

Midori Lotus walked quietly behind him and stopped.

She looked at his back, and a mixed emotion welled up in her heart.

Meng Haowen seemed to sense the arrival of the green lotus, he turned to look at her, his eyes revealed a deep exhaustion and helplessness.

Green Lotus took a deep breath and asked softly, "Meng Haowen, do you have something to do with me?"

Meng Haowen didn't answer, just looked at her silently.

His heart was full of contradictions and struggles.

He had to admit that after the woman in front of him confessed again and again, he did move, but now he didn't seem to be able to think about it at all, and he had to abandon all of it.

Green Lotus looked at his silence, and his heart was like a knife.

She approached Meng Haowen, gently grabbed his hand, and looked at him with a firm gaze, "Meng Haowen......"

He frowned slightly, struggling inwardly.

Meng Haowen felt Green Lotus's hand grasp him tightly, he was silent for a moment, and then with a slight force, his hand easily broke free from Green Lotus's grasp.

He folded his hands behind his back, as if to express his inner detachment.

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes, a kind of wariness and resistance to inappropriate intimacy.

His movements are fluid and natural, without a hint of reluctance or hesitation.

Midori Lotus's heart was full of uneasiness.

She knew that Meng Haowen would not come easily

The person who looked for her.

"Green Lotus, I have something to ask you." Meng Haowen's tone was full of seriousness.

Meng Haowen wanted to ask Lu He, did she do the child who made Shu Zhihan feel painful.

The question echoed in his mind repeatedly, but he could never get out.

His gaze wandered over the face of the green lotus, and the clear eyes and the indifferent expression made him suddenly feel unable to face it.

How could he imagine that the woman in front of him, who kept saying that she liked him and saved Luo Jinyu's life, would do such a cruel thing?

His lips moved slightly, but only a silent movement of air came out, and his throat was dry, as if it were pressed by something heavy, preventing him from speaking.

Meng Haowen stood beside Green Lotus.

He looked at her, his heart was full of confusion and confusion, he wanted to ask her, but he didn't dare to ask. He wanted to believe her, but he couldn't.

His hand flicked in the air, but he didn't know where to put it.

His heart was filled with confusion and helplessness, as if he was being led by an invisible hand towards an unpredictable future.

Eventually, he just took a deep breath and took another step back.

He closed his eyes, the question still echoing in his mind.

Meng Haowen had a lot of thoughts, and he knew that he had to solve the problem.

He began to think about how he should find a suitable way to open this problem.

"What I want to know, you should understand."

"I don't understand what you mean, I did something to make you irritated to this extent, judging by your look, I must have been standing here for a long time, let's say, what do you want to know?"

Green Lotus also took a small step back, the smile on his face completely disappeared, and he looked at him with a calm expression.

Seeing such a green lotus, Meng Haowen's heart couldn't help but tremble, and then he spoke directly.

"Madame's miscarriage, you must have heard about it."

"Well, so what? Does it have anything to do with me? Or are you just trying to talk about it when you're here with me, and you've been struggling for a long time?"

Meng Haowen looked at her outstandingly calm, as if she was not nervous at all, and there was a trace of hesitation in her heart.

Midori didn't speak again, staring at him with wide eyes, without blinking.
