Chapter 9: Love Cannot Overcome the Cold of Someone Leaving

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This feeling was very foreign. His sister had never cared much about him, she probably couldn’t care much either. Other than knowing that they were siblings and were related by blood, Lou Che didn’t know much about her situation. He knew that she hadn’t been doing well all these years, so he didn’t want to disturb her, and just left it to fate.

She was flipping through his textbooks.

He had not bothered to study all these years. Anyway, no one cared about his grades or how he was doing.

After these textbooks were distributed, he did not even flip through a few pages.

Ming Qianye flipped through it with an unchanged expression and found that the content was quite simple. However, compared to high school students of the same age, it would take some effort to figure out how to solve the problems.

“Does Lou Zhiwen really not care about you?”

Her soft and calm voice sounded.

Lou Che pursed his lips slightly, but he didn’t answer. He just looked down indifferently and slowly closed his eyes.

Ming Qianye looked at him a little condescendingly. She already understood what was going on. She put away the books and papers and suddenly turned to leave the ward.

Lou Che only opened his eyes when he heard her footsteps disappear into the distance. The ward had returned to its initial silence…

Even though it felt a little foreign, Ming Qianye couldn’t really ignore Lou Che. Perhaps it was because of their blood relation that stirred the faint feeling within her.

In the end, Ming Qianye still made a trip to the Lou family.

Ever since she left the Lou family, Ming Qianye rarely returned to the Lou family’s small courtyard. Everything about the Lou family felt unfamiliar and familiar to her, just like this small building in front of her.

Thinking back, it always felt like a long time had passed!

She couldn’t seem to remember when she last came back.

This place was filled with a lot of her childhood memories. Even though time had passed and she could not remember many things, this place was still a distant dream to her…

The guard was still Uncle Fu, but after so many years, he looked a little old.

He was stunned for a moment when he saw Ming Qianye, but he quickly let her pass.

The white jasmines that her mother liked in the front yard had long been removed. In its place were the champagne roses that Yang Li liked. The swing that her grandfather had built himself at the side of the courtyard had also disappeared and been replaced with a pavilion…

There was almost no trace of the past. Everything about her mother and grandfather seemed to have been erased. The appearance of the courtyard had changed drastically. Of course, this was naturally expected, given the way that woman could not wait to replace her mother.

At that time, she was young and weak and could only watch helplessly and indifferently as all of this happened. In her heart, she laughed at the coldness of the world. Deep love will never overcome the cold after a person leaves.

Yesterday, Lou Qianwei said that there was a private cocktail party at home today. At this moment, she could indeed hear the commotion from the backyard. The servants were also busy.

Ming Qianye walked through the front yard and entered the villa.

The first person to discover her was Mom Wang, who had worked for the Lou family for more than ten years.

“Miss… Miss… It’s you…”

Seeing Ming Qianye’s appearance, Mom Wang’s expression was a little tense and her eyes were very complicated. She glanced at her and continued, “Miss, you’re here to attend your sister’s cocktail party, right? Wear your shoe covers. I’ll get them for you…”

As she spoke, she took out a pair of shoe covers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to Ming Qianye.

Ming Qianye glanced at her from the corner of her eyes. She didn’t say a word, but her calm eyes were filled with intimidation, which stunned Mom Wang instantly.

Not only did Ming Qianye not change, but she also walked straight in. Her goal was very clear—the second floor.

Her room and Lou Che’s room were on the second floor. They were two large rooms next to each other. They could see the big lake opposite them through the window. Grandpa even got someone to personally design styles that suited them.

Relying on her memory, Ming Qianye soon arrived at her room and opened the door.

But…

What greeted her eyes was a large area of champagne pink. It made her feel like she was looking at a very high-end princess house.

Of course, this was not her room. She knew very well that this color was mother and daughter Yang Li and Lou Qianwei’s favorite.

The room had completely changed. Her things were almost completely gone!

Ming Qianye’s heart sank and a dark look surfaced in the depths of her starry eyes. Her expression froze for a few seconds before she immediately realized something. She quickly turned around and walked towards the room at the side.

She opened the door and looked inside…

As expected, the room inside had changed drastically. Its design was a Captain America-inspired style, it was obvious that it was not Lou Che’s favorite, but… Lou Hui’s!

Lou Che’s room was the same as hers. Lou Qianwei and her younger brother Lou Hui had occupied it!

The brother and sister clearly used to live in the small building next to the villa or on the first floor…

“Where is Lou Che’s room? Who allowed you to touch my room?”

Ming Qianye suddenly turned around and looked gloomily at Mom Wang, who had followed him. Mom Wang couldn’t help but tremble slightly when she saw this, but she didn’t dare to respond. She looked at the attic at the side…

Ming Qianye followed her line of sight and her eyes darkened even more. She immediately walked over.

Bang!

The heavy door was opened. Inside was a small bedroom that could only accommodate a small bed and a desk. The cramped space made people feel uncomfortable. There was not even a window.

Ming Qianye had lived here for so many years, so of course she knew what this place was for!

It was used to store things and goods. It was impossible to live here for a long time, especially for a growing child like Lou Che. In such a small and stifling space, even breathing felt cramped. How could Lou Zhiwen bear to let Lou Che move here?

Ming Qianye’s expression turned extremely gloomy. Mom Wang, who was following behind, also had a hint of panic on her face!

She was also very surprised. Miss, who had not come back for the past few years, actually came back today without any notice. She even rushed upstairs… It did feel a little random, but…

Madam was not back yet. She really did not know how to deal with it here. Second Miss and the others were still preparing for the private cocktail party later. Of course, they did not have time to deal with it, so…

Ming Qianye took in the entire scene. Her cold aura was undoubtedly a little scary.

“Young Master Lou Che is about to prepare for the college entrance examination. He needs a relatively quiet and simple environment, so he moved here. We…”

Before she could finish speaking, Ming Qianye glanced at her with an oppressive gaze and said with a faint smile, “Whose idea was this?”

Her tone was as cold as ice, like needles piercing into skin. She couldn’t help but shiver as she stared at Ming Qianye in a daze, not daring to say a word.
