Chapter 2325 List (Part 7)

The room Lucy passed down to Wendy, to be honest, didn't have much of a girlish feel.

Even the view is quite limited; most of the view from the small windows is blocked by buildings.

Whether it's the starry sky above or the river view below, everything is so tiny it feels like peeping.

However, it is precisely this point, combined with Lucy's recollection of the past, that makes one feel a sudden surge of emotion when experiencing it firsthand.

The response before payment was somewhat rough in both reasoning and language.

So much so that even Mr. Carton, the person involved, was quite surprised.

When Fu Qian came up, he didn't do anything too strange. He just sat by the window, leaning to the side and looking out.

At this moment, he couldn't help but turn around and stare at her with narrowed eyes for a long time.

Before the interview, the winner was given a noticeable difference in appearance.

"I know... life is always imperfect, isn't it?"

However, it seems that the rough words did touch her at some point, and at one point she sighed, indicating that she completely understood the girl's heart after the invitation.

They made no attempt to hide themselves and could hear the conversation downstairs the whole time.

“What can you see?”

Although the young man in front of him was more insightful than he had imagined, Carton still didn't seem to be able to empathize with him much.

Before Fu Qian could say anything, he gestured for Fu Qian to come closer.

What did you see...?

He did as instructed without hesitation, and the next moment he was already at the window, looking out from the same angle.

The view is indeed not good, but the privacy is relatively better.

One can easily imagine a young girl, her heart surging with passion, gazing out from a railing, and finally drawing the curtains with mixed emotions.

Of course, this point is so obvious that it's too simplistic to use as the answer.

"Not only does life have regrets, but so does a cat's life."

Fu Qian's gaze finally landed on the gaps between the buildings outside. Although this affected his view, for a small, agile creature, it was almost possible to find a well-organized route.

……

"Lucy said that the tabby cat goes down here three times a day."

It sounds like the correct answer was given again before payment.

Kardon's tone was tinged with surprise, but mostly filled with emotion, before he began to recount the past in detail.

"But it will only return the way it came twice... The last time it will go through the front door, regardless of whether the windows are open or not."

The scene he described was also remarkably immersive.

Unfortunately, that wonderful performance never attracted a single audience member.

"Interesting. It sounds like you remember what Lucy said very well—"

Nodding slightly, Fu Qian also highly praised the life entanglements involved.

"But you're curious why I didn't come."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Katon immediately asked a question on his behalf.

"I don't think anyone wouldn't be curious."

Fu Qian admitted it very readily, even glancing back at her as he spoke.

The wooden ladder was still too old; no matter how carefully you walked, you couldn't completely avoid making noise.

Even with the hearing of an average person, they could distinguish a hesitant footstep outside at this moment.

It's perfectly normal. You can't expect someone to run into their bedroom during a family gathering to reminisce about their youth, and then expect them to do nothing.

In fact, Lucy's family was quite restrained; a more violent incident might have resulted in bloodshed. This is probably why the old man said earlier that he thought he knew how to use a gun.

If you want to gain a moment to remember the past, using that kind of weapon to intimidate the crowd is obviously the simplest way.

Although I chose the most peaceful approach, the fragile balance could only be maintained for a short while.

“It’s very simple. I really wanted to come, and I had plenty of time… but I didn’t.”

The old man undoubtedly noticed the commotion outside, but he remained calm and quietly explained what happened back then.

That's the reason... Isn't that a bit too brutal?
……

I think I have the time, but I just won't come.

People often ask, how much can a single sentence express regret?

In my opinion, the reason given for the lag is how much a single sentence can drive a disappointed person to despair.

It's about reminiscing about youth; everyone has their reckless moments in their youth, which is understandable.

Even Lucy's family outside, after learning the whole story, although their emotions were complicated, did not lose control.

If the whole process is handled more tactfully, it might even become a topic of conversation at the next family gathering.

However, you're giving such an abstract answer to a question that has puzzled Ms. Lucy for decades?
This doesn't seem like a way to reconcile with life at all. It's likely that the person involved won't be able to sleep at night for the next few days.

Even the cautious footsteps outside stopped abruptly as soon as he said that.

Of course, these are all details, and it seems unnecessary for me to worry about them so much.

The core issue is: what if what the old man said is true?
Regarding this mission, things seem to be starting to look suspicious.

"Alright, we should go now. It would be impolite to bother you any longer."

Although Kardon had no intention of explaining further, he took a deep breath and stood up the next moment, feeling completely satisfied.

"it is good."

Fu didn't insist and simply walked ahead.

"excuse me."

Even when they reached the outside stairs, they apologized to the person looking at them first.

……

Ms. Lucy was clearly contemplating life, and not very clearly.

As mentioned earlier, this family is already a rare example of gentleness.

Faced with this behavior, which was tantamount to barging in and urinating anywhere, they ultimately chose to respect Lucy's youth and let her go upstairs to settle the matter.

But the fact that it was resolved so efficiently was clearly beyond everyone's expectations.

There was no further eye contact to make the person involved more embarrassed. Fu Qian quickly brushed past them and was met with the stunned stares of a group of people downstairs.

"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

Even the proud Wendy couldn't help but look over, and Fu Qian smiled without any modesty.

Boom!
Before anyone could even calculate how to react, the door had already been casually closed behind them.

The whole process was so quiet and peaceful that even the youngest child didn't show any emotional instability until they left.

"Turn back."

And it seems that Carton has no interest in even glancing back at the object of his regret from his youth.

Even the first stop on his bucket list could no longer attract his attention.

The moment he got into the car, the old man resumed his posture from when he came in, his eyes half-open and half-closed, and casually gave new instructions.

"it is good."

Fu Qian didn't mind continuing to work as a driver and started the car immediately.
