Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage -
Chapter 84 Family Atmosphere
The atmosphere inside the car is stiff, and there is a camera set on the copilot focusing on Amelia. As for the driver, he looks bored.
Jenny kicks Amelia, smiles, and whispers in her ear, "Stop talking. The camera's on."
Amelia sticks out her tongue with a playful look, grins, and nods.
She points to the co-pilot's camera, and says seriously, "At this point, I'm posing as your best friend, right?"
"Or you can be a troublemaker who needs my help."
"Jenny...How can you say that..." Amelia hugs her arm and shakes, acting like a spoiled child, "Now that I've beaten Jessica to become your chief confidant, and it's not a matter of time to make friends, but it's a matter of character and personality..."
"Amelia..." Jenny hurries to interrupts Amelia. Then She looks at her, and turns to the camera.
Generally speaking, she is hinting at the cameraman to delete that part.
Then Carl makes an Ok gesture and says nothing.
Amelia wants to say something, but Jenny gives her another kick and a wink to hint her.
"Well, I'm hungry. Take me to dinner." Amelia says, "I'd like to eat Chinese food. Do you know where a real Chinese restaurant is?"
Jenny thinks for a moment, "Of course."
Though Jenny does not know, but someone should know.
Luke is sitting at the table in the first military complex of Beijing, shaded by trees. The nurse brings the soup to the table, and people around the table do not say a word. "Well, let's start."
The man in the south-facing position says coldly, and then all people pick up the chopsticks.
The man who speaks looks to be in his early sixties with a very strong body and full of breath in his voice. From the features carved on the blade of the knife, it can be found some handsome temperaments, but those temperaments have been reshaped by time into today's calm and coldness.
"Luke, have more soup," Tracy says softly, as she is holding a spoon and looking at Luke, "Mrs. Zhou has been cooking the soup for a long time. It's very good for your health."
"Can't he do it by himself?" Alex says coldly, staring at Tracy's hand holding the spoon.
After a while, Tracy says, "You should drink more soup."
"He is an adult. And he knows what he's supposed to do. You don't need to teach him how to eat."
Luke just glances at Tracy and says nothing. He holds a bowl of rice in his hand, picks up the food on his plate in front of him and chews slowly.
But such dinners are like a cold machine doing mechanical and numbing repetitions.
The table is full of people, but no one says a word, and the noise of eating is very low.
Such are the rules of the Lu family.
That's why Luke doesn't want to bring Jenny here.
"I heard that you just buy a film company? Are you going to invest in the entertainment industry?"
Tracy can not help asking.
Luke raises his head and, without answering, looks at the man sitting opposite him. It seems that he is waiting for his response.
"Do not speak at the feeding or sleeping time." Alex looks at Luke and then turns to Tracy, "If you want to talk now, you can go to the kitchen to talk with Mrs. Zhou."
Tracy frowns and seems to be annoyed, "Luke only comes back home a few times a year. However, every time we have a meal, you don't let us talk with each other. Then he leaves after dinner. As a mother, I don't have any chance to talk with him. How can you do that?"
"If you want to speak, no one can stop you."
"Is that so? If you hadn't forced Lake to take part in the actual combat exercise at the beginning, he would not..."
"Can you stop?" He throws chopsticks so hard on the table that the porcelain dish on the table issues a clanging. Then he looks at Tracy coldly, "Lake died for our country and he is a martyr. You know nothing at all."
"A martyr, and then? Can he be alive again? Can he stay with us again? He is your son, don't you feel regretful?"
"Stop talking. Just have dinner." Alex frowns, clenches his fist and looks very angry.
Luke gently puts down his chopsticks and says flatly, "I have finished eating. And I have something else to do, so I need to go first."
Those sitting on the table are Alex's subordinate officials. They usually talk and laugh with each other, but now they keep silent. As soon as they hear that Luke wants to leave, they also say that they finish eating and want to go home back."
"Sit down." Alex's voice sounds a cold echo in the living room, "It's not too late to go back after eating. Don't hurry to go back home to share my family's funny things."
"You are joking..." A man says and sits down. And the others do not dare to move, but pick up the chopsticks and go on eating.
Tracy glares at Alex. Then she turns to follow Luke. She wears a pale blue household dress and a cashmere gray coat. And she walks elegantly.
"Luke..."
She runs out of the door and is shivered by the cold wind.
Luke has just come down the steps of the door. He looks back and asks, "What's up?"
"Every time you go home, you are like on business. You have nothing to do but eat. Do you stay at home tonight? I have cleaned your room and put new sheets and sheets on it." Luke glances up at a window ledge on the second floor and says, "No, I am used to living in the hotel."
"Nonsense. You should not live in the hotel. You haven't been home for many years."
Tracy tugs at his sleeve, "I won't let you go unless you promise to stay at home today. After Lake died, you are the only child I have."
When hearing the name of Lake, Luke frowns.
