Dream Capture: I Can See Through All Secrets!

88: 88.Father and SonThe next morning.

Lu Feng was already up early, packing his luggage.

He carefully placed his admission letter and ID card into a hidden compartment in his backpack, then turned to see his dad walking over with a stack of photocopies, which he handed to him.

”I’ve made a few extra copies of these for you; you’ll need them for school registration.”

Lu Xiaoli also opened Lu Feng’s wardrobe, constantly looking and picking: ”After summer, it will quickly be autumn and winter, so you should prepare more warm clothes, and bring these daily necessities too.”

Lu Feng was a bit exasperated: ”Mom, it’s still just Jiangcheng. Your son isn’t going to some other place.”

Lu Feng looked at these old clothes; they were no longer suitable for him to wear. He planned to buy new ones there, but for now, he couldn’t bear to refuse his mom’s kind intentions.

Lu Xiaoli said worriedly: ”Other children want their parents to go to school with them. How can you be so unique, my child?”

”Not at all. I originally planned for us to all go to Jiangcheng together, and you shouldn’t live here anymore. Move to Banshan East Road, but you insisted you wouldn’t be used to it, so what can I do?”

Lu Feng never expected his parents to refuse to live there, and the reason was that they weren’t used to it.

Lu Xiaoli said: ”Your dad has finally recovered well. It’s better to live in a familiar environment. Those unfamiliar places are not suitable for us two old people.”

Lu Zezhou also laughed: ”Your mom is right. I’m doing great here, walking and playing chess with the neighbors every day. If you make me go to some luxury home, there’ll be no one to talk to.”

Lu Feng said helplessly: ”Ah? So my five-hundred-square-meter house will just be empty like that?”

Lu Zezhou raised an eyebrow: ”That’s not hard. Just find a girlfriend, right? You’re in college now, you have the freedom to date, and you should try interacting with girls.”

”Go, go, go, why are you talking about these things with the child?” Lu Xiaoli interrupted.

The family joked while packing clothes, and in the end, it was only after Lu Feng’s persistent coaxing that his parents reluctantly agreed to stay for a short period after the weather turned cooler.

After loading the luggage, Lu Feng got into his dad’s three-wheeled vehicle. After waving goodbye to his mom, he headed towards the high-speed rail station.

It’s often said that father-son relationships are taciturn, but actually, Lu Feng and his dad had a good relationship, especially after all these events, they were even more like brothers.

”University isn’t like high school; it’s more like a small society. Human relations and social etiquette are prevalent. Although Dad knows you’re capable now, you must never become arrogant or complacent, understand?”

”I understand, Dad, don’t worry. Oh, right, your son can earn money now, so spend when you should, don’t be frugal.”

”Got it,” Lu Zezhou said with a laugh and a scolding tone.

They soon arrived at the high-speed rail station. Lu Zezhou escorted him all the way to the entrance, still standing there, smiling as he watched Lu Feng.

”Go back, Dad.”

”Got it!”

Lu Feng waved goodbye to his dad, boarded the high-speed train, and sat by the window. He closed his eyes, and in his mind, he could already picture the expression his father might show when he saw the new car later.

This is what money should be used for... Seeing his son disappear into the crowd, Lu Zezhou sighed softly before turning to go back.

When the three-wheeled vehicle pulled up downstairs, Lu Xiaoli was about to go out and smiled, seeing him: ”You’ve come just in time; take me to the wet market.”

”Alright!”

This was one of the few hobbies the couple shared: browsing the market.

Just as he was about to turn around, he saw a gleaming black luxury car carefully driving into the alley entrance.

The car was so new that it hadn’t even been licensed yet, and red ribbons still hung from both side mirrors. Neighbors who were cooling off couldn’t help but crane their necks to look.

”Oh, whose new car is that? Tsk, tsk, tsk, that brand isn’t cheap.”

”What do you mean not cheap? That costs over nine hundred thousand yuan; it’s very expensive!”

”Whose family’s is it? How come I haven’t heard? Did someone secretly get rich? Old Lu, do you know?”

Lu Zezhou laughed: ”How would I know? But this car is really handsome, very imposing. It’s practically my dream car.”

Lu Xiaoli, sitting in the back, pursed her lips and smiled: ”Didn’t your son say he was going to buy you a car a few days ago? You flatly refused then. What, do you regret it now?”

”Look at you. Our son is just starting university. He’ll need money for so many things in the future: work, marriage, raising children—which one doesn’t cost money? Buying a car for me is too wasteful; he should save it for future use.”

As they were chatting, the car stopped. The car door opened, and everyone looked over curiously.

They saw it was an unfamiliar middle-aged man and immediately lost interest.

Perhaps he was just passing by.

”Brother Lu, Sister-in-law, hello!” Liu Dajun said with a smile.

Lu Zezhou’s mouth dropped open, and he exclaimed: ”Huh, Old Liu! It really is you! Good for you, Old Liu, you’ve struck it rich, getting such a nice car?”

Liu Dajun smiled, saying nothing, and asked: ”How about it, this car is good, right?”

Lu Zezhou got out of the car, circled the gleaming body, and marveled: ”Good, it’s too good. We have very similar taste.”

Lu Xiaoli looked at her husband’s lingering gaze, shaking her head and smiling wryly. He said he didn’t want a car, but his actions were quite honest.

Liu Dajun handed the key to Lu Zezhou, full of smiles: ”Take it for a spin.”

Lu Zezhou hesitated: ”Is that appropriate? It’s your new car.”

”No problem, just drive it.”

Lu Zezhou felt a bit eager to try it out, so he got in and drove it. The more he looked, the more he liked it; both the interior and the driving experience were very satisfying.

After getting out, he reluctantly handed the key to Liu Dajun, envying him: ”Old Liu, what a car.”

Liu Dajun didn’t take it, smiling: ”Brother Lu, no need to envy. This car is yours.”

Lu Zezhou froze, then burst out laughing: ”What a joke! If I had this car, I’d wake up laughing in my dreams.”

”I’m not joking, Brother Lu, Sister-in-law. Your son bought this at the dealership yesterday and said he wanted to give you a surprise today.”

Liu Dajun was the one who was truly envious.

”Ah???”

Hearing his words and recalling Lu Feng mentioning buying a car a few days ago, the couple stood dumbfounded.

”Old Liu... you... you’re really not joking?” Lu Zezhou couldn’t believe it. His son had quietly bought him a luxury car.

Liu Dajun knew it was useless to say more, so he directly took out the processed receipts and documents, which indeed had Lu Feng’s name on them.

The surrounding neighbors also understood and instantly erupted in chatter.

Whose child not only ranked in the top ten in the provincial college entrance exam, received a million-yuan scholarship, but also bought his dad a million-yuan luxury car during the summer vacation?

”Oh my God! Little Lu bought a car for Old Lu?”

”Oh my, such a child must be here to repay a kindness! Old Lu’s ancestral grave must be emitting green smoke!”

”How many good deeds did Old Lu and Sister Lu do in their previous lives to be blessed with such a son?”

”If my kid had half, no, even a tenth of Little Lu’s achievements, I’d be overjoyed.”

”...”

Under the envious gazes of the neighbors, Lu Zezhou’s hands trembled slightly. He remembered what his son said before leaving: ”Dad, money should be spent when it needs to be spent.”

It turned out that kid had planned it all along.

Lu Xiaoli wiped the corner of her eyes, then suddenly slapped her husband: ”Why are you still standing there? Drive me to buy groceries!”

Under the sun, the black SUV slowly drove out of the alley.

In the rearview mirror, the old three-wheeled vehicle rested quietly against the wall, like the curtain call of an era.
