My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot-Chapter 84: Stop Crying

"The Lu Family really raised a good daughter!"

"Scholarship? Why didn’t you say so earlier?" Lu Youzhen couldn’t help blurting out.

"What’s it to you?" Lu Youxi raised an eyebrow mockingly, "You think just because I saved the family some tuition money, you want our family to pay for Lu Youbang too?"

"Tch!" Lu Youxi knew all too well how to sting Ge Guifen, she sneered coldly, "Lu Youbang has no ability to win a scholarship, no ability to earn money, no ability to save money, he only knows how to ask for money from the family, so accomplished indeed."

As soon as these words came out, the people at the village entrance burst into loud laughter.

Lu Youbang had always been her pride, and now to be ridiculed by Lu Youxi in such a way, Ge Guifen was hopping mad, "What are you laughing at! Dare you say someone who got into Jing University is unsuccessful!"

"Compared to my sister, he is unsuccessful!" Lu Youxue said loudly, "My sister has a scholarship. Does Lu Youbang? My sister doesn’t ask for living expenses from the family; she works part-time to earn her living expenses, reducing the burden on the family. Can Lu Youbang do that?"

"That really is Yeuxi being successful, and her name Yeuxi is good too!"

"Lu Youbang really is unreasonable, a boy who is not as capable as his little sister."

"I take my sister as a role model, I won’t learn from Lu Youbang!" Lu Youxue, holding his little fists up, said aloud.

"Hahaha, Youxue may be small, but his ambitions are big," someone said with a laugh.

Lu Youxi glanced at the time and decided it wasn’t wise to linger at the village entrance any longer. She once again gave her thanks to the village chief, Grandma Xu, Aunt Liu, and Aunt Lin.

After bidding farewell to the other villagers, she left.

They first headed to the nearby bus station at the village entrance to catch the bus to the town center and transfer to a shuttle bus.

Once they reached the town’s transportation hub, Lu Youxi, carrying her luggage, said to Lu Zhenguo and Liu Yushu, "Dad, Mom, you and Youxue should go back. Don’t see us off anymore. There’s still so much work to do at home. If you see us off to the city, it will be dark before you get back."

"At least let us see you off to the county town," Liu Yushu was reluctant to part with Lu Youxi.

This was the first time Lu Youxi had been away from her for so long.

Lu Youxi had not been on good terms with her family before, and it wasn’t until recently that their relationship had improved, and Lu Youxi had stopped harboring resentment.

Liu Yushu hadn’t had enough time to be close with Lu Youxi, and now Lu Youxi was leaving for school.

"Sister, let us at least see you off to the county town," Lu Youxue said with red eyes, "otherwise, I don’t know how long it will be before I see you again."

"It won’t be too long," Lu Youxi patted his head, then remembered that Lu Youxue had said when there were people around, not to pat his head anymore, as he was a grown-up now.

Lu Youxi hesitated for a moment, just about to retract her hand, when Lu Youxue said, "Pat it."

If Lu Youxi were to leave, it would be a long while before he could feel her touch again.

Lu Youxi smiled, and Lu Zhenguo said, "We’ll only see you off to the county town, we won’t go to the city."

"Okay," Lu Youxi nodded, and so the group got on the shuttle bus heading for the county town.

The shuttle bus they were on stopped at a small bus station in the county town, which was used to dispatch buses to the surrounding counties and towns.

The long-distance bus that Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan were about to catch to Fengnan City, however, left from another, larger bus station.

The large bus station had buses going to various cities within the province.

Once in the county town, Lu Zhenguo and his two companions took Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan to the long-distance bus station and watched as the two boarded the bus.

It was only then that Lu Youxue could not hold back his tears.

Although Lu Youxi said they would see each other soon, Lu Youxue felt it wouldn’t be so simple.

According to what his parents said, being able to go to the Imperial Capital next year to live with Lu Youxi would be considered fast.

Liu Yushu consoled him, "We’ll also work harder to save money as quickly as possible, to go to the Imperial Capital to find your sister."

Lu Youxue, with tears in his eyes, nodded.

"Don’t cry now. If we wait outside the bus station, we can still see your sister’s bus go by," Lu Zhenguo chimed in, "Do you want your sister to see you crying?"

Lu Youxue perked up at this and immediately lifted his hand to wipe away tears with his sleeve, though his eyes remained bright red.

The three left the bus station and waited on the side of the road around the corner.

Lu Youxue, feeling a bit tired from standing, simply sat down at the roadside.

But every time a bus of the same model as the one Lu Youxi was on passed by, Lu Youxue would stand up, crane his neck to look, see that Lu Youxi was not inside, and then draw back.

He repeated this back and forth without seeming to tire at all.

Lu Zhenguo and Liu Yushu, although they didn’t sit down, also craned their necks like Lu Youxue, their gaze excitedly following every bus of the same model that Lu Youxi was on and then withdrawing in disappointment when it was not the right one.

"Here comes another one!" Lu Zhenguo said excitedly as he spotted a bus that had just turned the corner, showing only its nose.

Lu Youxue quickly stood up, looking on with Liu Yushu.

"It’s Sis!" Lu Youxue excitedly pointed at the bus window.

Lu Youxi didn’t know that they would be waiting by the roadside to catch another glimpse of her. She only thought that since it had been some time since they departed, Lu Zhenguo and Liu Yushu, to save money, would likely walk directly to the small bus station.

Moreover, the small bus station was on the same route as the bus Lu Youxi was taking.

Lu Youxi then opened the window to look out at the roadside.

Suddenly, she heard a crisp "It’s Sis!" from the roadside.

Lu Youxi hurriedly looked over and saw Lu Youxue waving frantically after spotting her.

With people around and heavy traffic on the road, the bus was not going fast.

Lu Youxue then sprinted wildly, keeping pace with the bus on the side of the road, "Sis! Sis!"

Liu Yushu and Lu Zhenguo followed behind Lu Youxue, also chasing after him.

"Youxue, stop chasing!" Lu Youxi hurriedly shouted.

"Sis!" Upon seeing Lu Youxi again, Lu Youxue could no longer hold back his tears and began to cry loudly.

Though the bus was moving slowly, it was inevitably faster than Lu Youxue’s running, and as the distance between him and the bus widened, Lu Youxi could only lean out of the window and shout, "Youxue, I will definitely bring you all over very soon!"

"Wuwuwuwu!" Lu Youxue cried, wiping away tears while running and shouting, "Sis, I can wait, don’t rush... I’m not in a hurry..."

"Alright, Youxue, stop chasing, be good!" Seeing Lu Youxue cry like that, Lu Youxi’s face also turned red.

Memories of time spent with her family were somewhat distant for Lu Youxi.

From her previous life, once she went to the Imperial Capital, aside from sending money home regularly, she didn’t interact much with her family.

Later busy with work and with Lin Jingshen, a useless husband, Lu Youxi had gotten used to being alone. She no longer missed her family like a child would.

But now, Lu Youxi was filled with a homesickness she had never felt in either of her lives, missing her family dearly.

It wasn’t until the bus picked up speed, and Lu Youxue’s silhouette grew smaller and smaller until it disappeared from sight, that Lu Youxi sat up straight again, no longer looking out the window.
