Chapter 1042: So Close So Far (127)
The lights in the corridor on the second floor seemed to no longer sense any sound and would not light up again.
Looking at everything behind her, Zuo Yue fell into a long silence.
She thought that love was the most beautiful thing in the world, but she never thought that before she could get everything she wanted, when everything was about to be completely pulled out of her life, everything would be so desolate and painful.
“Miss Sun, did you leave something behind?”w.a.n.g Ma turned around and asked her.
Zuo Yue paused for a moment before shaking her head gently.””No more.”
“Then let’s go. If we’re any later, we won’t be able to catch the plane.”
Zuo Yue turned around and walked out of the door. She closed the door and did not look back.
*****
A week later…
The Zuo family in the United States.
“Zuo Yue went to Boston to study for half a year. How did she come back with such lousy results?”Old man Zuo saw Zuo Yue’s exam results and walked into the hall, muttering to himself.
At that time, Zuo Yue was sitting on the sofa by the window with a cat in her arms. Both the cat and the person were curled up lazily on the sofa and basking in the sun outside the window. When she heard the old man’s scolding after entering the door, she pretended not to hear it and continued to close her eyes and pretend to be asleep.
“Not long ago, Zuo Yue was hospitalized due to a severe case of pneumonias. After that, she seemed to have fallen ill again. She was hospitalized continuously and delayed quite a number of cla.s.ses. I don’t think she did anything wrong with her results.”Father Zuo said with a smile as he walked in.
“My grandchildren should all be outstanding. Although that child Hancheng hasn’t come back for so many years, his examination results have never made us worry. Now look at Zuo Yue, is she really the biological daughter of our Zuo family? Why haven’t I seen her come back with full marks before?”
Zuo Yue suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at the old man who was holding a walking stick and criticizing her. Before her father could put in a good word for her, she let go of the cat in her arms and sat up.”Grandpa, can you not mention my brother every time you mention me? Or when he mentioned my brother, he scolded me along the way?”
“What’s wrong with scolding you? Look at your results. You still have the cheek to talk back to me?”Old Master Zuo turned around and glared at her.””Also, can you not keep a bunch of cats at home every time? The few months that you were away from the Zuo family, the house was much quieter, but the moment you came back, you brought those cats back! Don’t you know that your grandfather hates animals the most?”
Zuo Yue’s mouth twitched.” You know these cats too. They were all kept by my side. Before I went to Boston, I left them at a friend’s house. When I came back, I brought all the cats back. They’re not new. If you want to scold them, you’ve already scolded me in the past. There’s no need to dig up these old scores.”
“You!” Old Master Zuo looked at her angrily.””Wretched girl, you went out for half a year and learned how to talk back after coming back, right?”
Zuo Yue pursed her lips and did not say anything else.
She knew that she would be beaten up by her grandfather every day after she returned home. In the past, her brother grew up by her grandfather’s side. She did not know how her brother endured her grandfather’s temper for so many years.
However, in the end, his grandfather still personally angered his most proud grandson away. He was so angry that he didn’t come back for five years. Even in this state, this old man still didn’t know how to change his temper. It seemed that he wouldn’t stop until he angered everyone in the family away.
After all, Zuo Yue was a girl in the family. Her parents still protected her more or less. Moreover, she was still young, so there was a reason for them to protect her. Even w.a.n.g Ma would occasionally speak up for her.
However, because her brother had carried too much responsibility for the Zuo family, even if everyone could not stand it, they could not protect her brother too much.
In the end, her grandfather still forced her brother to leave.
It started five years ago. At that time, Zuo Yue had already looked down on everything in the family.
The Zuo family was just a place with money and power but no human feelings. Her parents were good to her, but they were still busy with all kinds of important matters between the family and the company. They didn’t have much time and attention to themselves.
After returning to this house, her only interest was to take care of the cat and play with it. From time to time, she would take advantage of her grandfather’s anger to argue with him.
However, whenever Grandpa mentioned her brother, she would get very angry!
“Dad, Zuo Yue hasn’t even turned twenty yet, so don’t be calculative with her. Besides, you know that she was hospitalized with pneumonias at that time. She will definitely do well in the next semester.”Father Zuo tried to smooth things over.
Old Master Zuo looked at Zuo Yue expressionlessly again. Seeing that she was sitting lazily on the sofa without moving, he said angrily,””You’re already eighteen years old. What do you look like? Chengxin comes to our house often. Why can’t you learn from that Zhishu?”
“What happened to Chengxin? Why was she so good? If she was really good, would my brother leave the United States just to not marry her?”Zuo Yue retorted.
“You!”
Zuo Yue stared back at him fearlessly, then reluctantly picked up the cat at her feet under the gaze of Father Zuo, turned around and left.
“The wretched girl is getting more and more insensible. Hurry up and arrange for someone to marry off so that I won’t be annoyed by her wandering around in front of me every day.”The old man’s muttering voice came from behind.
Zuo Yue did not look back. She was about to go back to her attic to find some peace and quiet when the butler, Uncle Chen, ordered a few people to carry a big box in the front yard.
” What’s in this box?” Zuo Yue asked curiously.”
Uncle Chen glanced at her and replied with a smile,”Miss Sun, this is the frozen prawn that was specially ordered from Russia. It was just flown over. The old man usually liked to eat seafood and knew that it was the season to eat ice prawns, so he specially ordered a big box back and sent it to the kitchen in a while.”
When she heard the words ‘Russia’, a certain figure that Zuo Yue had deliberately forgotten all this time instantly entered her mind.
She stood at the side with the cat in her arms and nodded without saying anything else.
Zuo Yue turned around and walked away when those people dragged the big box of things to the back. As she walked, she silently looked at the Zuo family’s courtyard in the winter.
The earth was round. She had never felt that any place in this world was very far away.
But now, she suddenly felt that Russia and China, the other side of the world, were so far away.

[Happy New Year ~ There will be a big update tomorrow!] Many readers did not seem to understand the term “Miss Sun” in the main text, but most of them did. Because the old master of the Zuo family was still alive, the head of the Zuo family was the old master Zuo. The servants called the granddaughter of the old master Zuo as Miss Sun, which was a very normal honorific. It was the seniority of the grandchildren.]
