Lu Jingci glanced at Liang Qinghe, then looked away, ignoring Liang Qinghe as if he didn't exist.

He didn't bother to say a word, his dejected and desperate demeanor vanished, his aura quickly changed, and his state of mind was rapidly adjusted.

He walked straight to the dining table, slowly picked up a piece of bread, and began to eat.

Liang Qinghe stood there, his eyes wide open.

Oh my god, am I seeing things?

Mr. Lu has been locking himself in his room for the past few days without eating or drinking. He came out on his own today, and now he's even going out to eat?

Is it... starving? Or has it come up with some amazing trick?

Why does he feel like President Lu is a bit mentally unstable?

Could it be that the intense pain caused his brain to become abnormal?

It really feels unbelievable.

A few minutes later.

After finishing his meal, Lu Jingci walked to the full-length dressing mirror in the living room.

Liang Qinghe's gaze followed him, and he saw him standing in front of the mirror, first straightening his crooked shirt collar, and then starting to tidy his hair.

Even more bizarrely, he practiced his gentlest smile in front of the mirror, touching his face to see if his skin could still withstand the impact.

He switched from being a "dejected, heartbroken man" to being "as gentle and refined as before".

Liang Qinghe: ? What's going on now?

Just now, he asked President Lu if he intended to imprison and force himself on Miss Xu. President Lu didn't reply. Could it be true?

His jaw nearly dropped, and he couldn't help but ask again, "...Mr. Lu? You don't really intend to lock Miss Xu back in the villa, do you?"

Lu Jingci finally looked at him directly in the mirror. "Liang Qinghe, I've always thought you were quite smart. Why do you keep asking such idiotic questions?"

Liang Qinghe: "..." What's wrong with him now? Are you so smart?

Why was he attacked again? He shouldn't have asked.

It's all because that person's temperament is unpredictable and their acting is so convincing that even if he's smart, he can't guess what that person will do next.

However, Liang Qinghe only dared to complain in his heart; he would never dare to say it out loud.

Lu Jingci put on his gold-rimmed glasses in front of the mirror. His gaze behind the lenses became more restrained, giving him a more refined yet roguish air.

Then he took out several suits from the dressing room and tried them on himself one by one to see which one looked the best.

He spoke slowly and deliberately: "Liang Qinghe."

"Yes, Mr. Lu."

Lu Jingci held up a dark gray suit to his chest, turned slightly to the side, and said, "After all these years, with everything added up, including what happened last night, don't you understand?"

"From Ningning's imprisonment and death at my hands, to her kicking me out after I feigned amnesia... haven't you seen through it all yet?"

Liang Qinghe opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

Lu Jingci changed into a dark-colored suit, draped it over his shoulders, and held it up to his eyes.

"With Ningning's personality and temperament, imprisoning her is completely useless and will only backfire. If I imprison her again, force myself on her, or lie to her again, I will never be able to win her heart again in this lifetime."

"Furthermore, crying at the villa, or continuing to hide and cry inside the house, is even less effective."

"These methods are completely useless."

Liang Qinghe interjected, "So, what about these past three days...?"

Lu Jingci adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. "I've thought about it for three days, and I've figured it out."

"She liked me when I was a teenager, she liked me a few years ago when I was gentle and refined, she liked me when I was a child, because I seemed weaker then, and she seemed stronger."

He turned around and looked directly at Liang Qinghe: "She likes to be dominant in a relationship. She bullies others and forces others, rather than being forced by others."

"Moreover, the romance novels she read in junior high all featured younger male protagonists, none of them older. She likes obedient and well-behaved boys. Clearly, she is a typical example of someone who responds better to gentleness than force."

Liang Qinghe nodded. "Given Miss Xu's temperament, it seems she really is..."

Lu Jingci straightened his tie.

"Therefore, Ningning is definitely a person with high self-esteem. I can't show too much possessiveness towards her anymore, otherwise, the 'chasing after her' situation will only get worse. I was already wrong to pretend to have amnesia, and I absolutely can't make another mistake."

He narrowed his eyes, reached a conclusion, and his tone became serious, each word falling clearly into the room:

"Liang Qinghe, from today onwards, I've made up my mind. Since there's no other way, I'll start pursuing Ningning from scratch, beginning as her suitor."

"No matter how difficult it is, I can't really give up on this relationship, absolutely not."

Therefore, apologize sincerely, earnestly seek forgiveness, and earnestly pursue your goals.

"Furthermore, I will remain in a subservient position for the rest of my life, control my morbid possessiveness, and never have any more obsession or hostility... Even if I have to act on my knees, I will act out my entire life in front of Ningning."

"Just like I played the role of a gentle and refined person for the past two years, this time, I'm going to maintain that image for the rest of my life."

Liang Qinghe stared wide-eyed in astonishment: "You actually have some self-awareness. You know that's called morbid possessiveness? You really are the only yandere I've ever met who can reflect on their actions."

"To be honest, in all my years of reading novels, this is the first time I've encountered such a fashionable yandere as you. You actually know perfectly well that you're a yandere?"

"But that's normal. If you don't reflect on your actions, you'll really be sentenced to a life without a wife."

"You... want to pursue Miss Xu again?"

Lu Jingci rolled her eyes at him: "Of course, is there a problem? Ningning has been pursuing me for two years, so isn't it only right that I pursue her now?"

"From now on, year after year, I will pursue her until the day she forgives me."

"It's not coercion, it's not imprisonment, it's normal attraction and pursuit. Only in this way can our relationship change from abnormal to normal."

Lu Jingci seemed to have a complete epiphany and continued, "If you want to win over a girlfriend, this is the only way."

"If we succeed within these two years, we can get engaged; if we fail and lose Ningning, I won't have much to live for..."

As he spoke, his eyes gradually reddened and filled with tears again. He pressed his heart, and a few tears of grief fell, transforming him back into the desperate look of someone who had just been kicked out of his home.

"If I can't catch up, I'll die."

"It's a do-or-die situation."

He took out a few pieces of paper from his suit pocket, his eyes, which were still slightly bloodshot, now shining frighteningly, and handed them to Liang Qinghe.

"This is my plan for pursuing my goals; I wrote three whole pages about it."

"Starting tomorrow, I will strictly follow the pursuit plan until Ningning becomes my wife."

"Liang Qinghe, if we succeed, remember to attend my wedding with Ningning. If we fail, you don't need to save me anymore. If you're completely despondent, remember to prepare for my funeral."

Liang Qinghe looked at the three pieces of paper in his hand, then looked up at Lu Jingci.

His lips moved, but he managed to utter only a few words:

"Wow, Mr. Lu, you've completely awakened, you've become completely enlightened."

"You're no longer being imprisoned or torn apart; you've finally turned to a normal pursuit. Whether you succeed or not, at least you're heading in the right direction. You've become a normal person."

"Moreover, as for Miss Xu, she sees that you have truly reformed and no longer make excuses for your mistakes. Instead, you are sincerely in love with her. As time goes by, and you are quite handsome, she might actually calm down."

"Don't worry, I will assist you. I will have people keep an eye on any man who appears around Miss Xu. If he's good-looking, we'll bribe him to leave."

"I have a feeling that you will succeed in one or two years at the earliest, or three to five years at the latest."

Lu Jingci suddenly looked up and met Liang Qinghe's eyes.

This time, the misery and embarrassment he felt from being turned away the previous two days vanished from his eyes; his tears disappeared completely, and his eyes shone with hope.

Liang Qinghe gave him a thumbs-up, an encouragement from his good brother.

He didn't know what President Lu had been thinking about during those three days alone in his room, but President Lu had finally figured it out completely.

Liang Qinghe had been reading novels for many years since junior high school, and this was the first time he had read about a yandere who had turned over a new leaf. He was so excited that his whole body trembled.

This was even more surprising than when he pursued women himself.

That's right, President Lu has realized it, he's become clear-headed, and he's been ignited!

Let's see how Miss Xu reacts tomorrow...
