Early in the morning, the Lu residence's doors were opened. An old man in his sixties came out of the door and swept the fallen leaves with a broom.

After sweeping a few times, the broom stopped in front of a pair of green male boots. The old man lowered his gaze until he could clearly see the person's appearance …

"Master! My lady! Second Young Master is back! "

"Second Young Master is back! Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Madam!" Second Young Master is back! "

"Miss Biao, Miss Biao, Second Young Master is back!"

The Lu residence, which was originally quiet, suddenly became rowdy. Even the chickens and ducks in the backyard were chirping non-stop.

Second Young Master Lu, whose Lu Family had been missing for more than a year — Lu Haoran finally returned home.

— —

Lu Haoran washed up, changed into a new set of clothes, and appeared in front of the two Lu Family Elders refreshingly.

He kneeled down to pay his respects to the two elders, apologizing for the absence of any news from him during the past year.

Although Lu’s father had said that he was not a filial son and had not sent any news to his family, he could not hide the excitement in his eyes. He could not hide the joy in his heart. Not to mention that Mother Lu was already in tears, she couldn't even speak. Lu Haoran stood up after receiving his father's nod of approval. He greeted his elder brother and elder sister-in-law before sitting down at the side.

Lu’s father asked, "Haoran, where have you been all this time?"

Lu Haoran looked ashamed. He scratched his head and said, "I was saved because of serious injury. I stayed with a family for more than half a year …"

The entire Lu Family shook as they heard the news of his injury. Mother Lu even went forward and held onto her son's shoulder to carefully size him up: "My son! Where are you hurt? How are your injuries? "Is there …"

"Mom, I'm fine now!"

"It's understandable for me to be seriously injured, but why didn't you inform my family?!" When Lu’s father heard his son say that he had nothing better to do, he put on a straight face and asked: "Do you know that we've been asking everywhere for news about you for more than a year, and you still think you died outside?"

Lu Haoran stood up again and knelt down before his father. "Your son is guilty. I forgot a lot of things because I didn't hurt my head too much. I didn't remember who I was until last month, so I rushed all the way back to apologize to my parents."

Lu’s father's expression tensed up when he heard that, as he was reluctant to leave. Mother Lu immediately helped her son up and pulled him to her side. Are you really all right? Remember the past? "

"Of course, although there are still some things that are unclear, I remember most of them."

"Then... Do you still remember about Caiyun? "

Hearing the two words "Cai Yun," Lu Haoran's face reddened slightly and he said in a low voice, "Of course I remember …"

's parents heaved a sigh of relief when they saw this. Mother Lu patted her son's hand and said: "She has been waiting for you for over a year. Quickly go and see her!"

Lu Haoran nodded and hurriedly withdrew from the smiles of his parents and sister-in-law.

Wang Caiyun was Lu Haoran's cousin. Her parents had died early, so she had been living in Lu Family since childhood. She and Lu Haoran grew up together, they were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was very different.

Seeing the two of them being so intimate, the two elders of the Lu Family made the decision to marry them. Wang Caiyun had admired her second cousin since she was young, so she naturally agreed. Lu Haoran had been very protective of his cousin since he was young, so the marriage was settled.

Originally, when Wang Caiyun was eighteen, he had wanted to give them this happy occasion, but when Wang Caiyun was eighteen, Lu Haoran went on a long journey. After half a year, no news of him appeared again until today, so naturally the marriage with Wang Caiyun was delayed.

Lu Haoran thought of his cousin who had been waiting for him at home for more than a year and felt that he owed her. Lu Haoran hesitated for a moment as he held onto the hairpin in his hand, but he still walked towards the building where Cai Yun lived.

Cai Yun already knew about Lu Haoran's return home, so she was already well-dressed and waiting for her cousin. After seeing Lu Haoran, she smiled gently and said, "Cousin Haoran."

When Lu Haoran saw his long-lost cousin, he was naturally excited. He responded with a smile, "Cousin, how have you been?"

The two of them actually acted as if they didn't know how to be polite after being reunited for such a long time.

They looked at each other for a moment and laughed.

Caiyun's taut shoulders said, "Cousin, I really didn't know that I would send a message home even after going out for so long! Do you know what's on my mind? "

Lu Haoran also recovered his original feeling. He smiled awkwardly and said: "I'm here to apologize." With that said, he took out the hairpin in his hand and said, "When I passed by South City, I specially went to the Cai Die Xuan to buy this, do you like it?"

Cai Die Xuan's jewelry had always been a girl's favorite, and Lu Haoran's carefully chosen hairpin was even more exquisite, how could Cai Yun not like it?

She played with the hairpin in her hand as she smiled and said, "Cousin, put it on for me."

Lu Haoran took the hairpin and naturally helped Cai Yun put it on, praising her with a smile, "It's been more than a year since we last met. Cousin's performance is becoming more and more moving."

Caiyun pursed her lips to feign anger, "You're so poor!" Then he smiled and asked, "Really?"

Lu Haoran nodded sincerely and did not look the least bit deceived as he looked deeply at Cai Yun.

Caiyun felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze. Her face reddened, and she didn't speak for a long time …

The news of Lu Haoran's return spread like wildfire across the Poyang City. A few of his former friends all came over to offer their condolences. Lu Haoran then got a private room in the city's most famous restaurant, Xuan Yue Tower, to entertain his friends.

Those who came to meet were all young people about the same age, and they didn't leave until late at night.

Lu Haoran was drunk and staggered home.

As he walked, he suddenly stopped and started to talk to a tree by the side of the road. After he said something, he started to vomit. After he finished, he continued to sway forward, but after a few steps, his body fell to the side and he fell asleep on the side of the road.

After he fell asleep, two people, one big and one small, walked out of an alley thirty feet away from him. The big one directed the younger one to take a look. The younger one ran up and observed him for a while before withdrawing, "Young Master, I'm afraid he's sleeping to death." As soon as he said that, the man who called out to him let out a long sigh and said to himself, "If you are happy, then so be it. Why are you so drunk?" Then she squatted down and said, "Quan Er, help me support him."

Quan Er stepped forward and helped the two of them to the Lu Family door. After gently placing him outside the door, the Young Master said, "Knock on the door!" Quan Er nodded and knocked heavily on the door a few times.

"Who is it?" someone asked from behind the door. Only then did Quan Er turn around and run.

The servant of Lu Family came out to open the door, and saw the Second Young Master who was drunk beyond recognition, and became flustered.

Meanwhile, that Young Master and Quan Er hid behind a tree in the distance until they saw them carry Lu Haoran in.

Quan Er followed the Young Master and asked, "Didn't you say that you didn't know him? Why do you care about him then?"

Young Master rolled his eyes at Quan Er, but didn't say anything.

Quan Er sighed, "In the end, Young Master still can't let him go?"

The Young Master knocked on Quan Er's head with his knuckles. He was slightly angered as he asked, "How is the matter that I asked you to inquire about?"

Quan Er replied, "Do we still need to ask about this? Everyone who came to drink today knows that the eighth day of next month will be the day Young Master Lu will be happy. "

"How's the bride?"

"The bride is a childhood sweetheart of his. Her looks, character, and personality are all very good."

Hearing this, the young master seemed a little disappointed as he muttered, "Is that so …" "As long as it's all good …"

Seeing this, Quan Er fearlessly asked, "Does Young Master truly think that it's good?"

The young master was startled and frowned: "Otherwise what?! Since when did a servant like you start meddling in my affairs? " With that, he raised his hand to hit it.

Quan Er claimed that she did not dare to do so as she clutched her head and fled.

That Young Master did not fake the fact that he stopped after taking two steps forward. He turned his head to look at the direction of the Lu Family, and sighed again.

Ten more days. In ten days, you'll be someone else's …
