Background
Lu Heyun lives directly across from Su Yu's old apartment. When he first moved in, Su Yu saw him left alone in his wheelchair while others unpacked; feeling sorry for him, Su Yu approached him and invited him to lunch. 3
He initially presents himself as a lonely student whose divorced parents placed him in separate housing, with bodyguards handling his daily care. In reality, he chose to move out because he did not want to live among the women his father brought home. 3 5
Lu Heyun gradually investigates Su Yu's circumstances, learning that the Su family has another son named Su Yu and that Su Hui—whom Su Yu is publicly impersonating—is married. 15 Su Yu later learns that Lu Heyun is Young Master Lu of Lu Corporation, rather than the ordinary college student he believed him to be. 74
Appearance
Lu Heyun is a pale, thin young man around twenty years old with a frail, sickly appearance. He uses a wheelchair because of limited mobility and is commonly accompanied by bodyguards. 3
- Very pale skin and red lips, compared by Su Yu to a vampire from a Western tale. 3
- Ink-black eyes and long, thick lashes. 3 15
- Soft, refined facial features that make him appear unlike an Alpha. 15 54
- Usually wears a faint, gentle smile around Su Yu. 3 24
- Uses a wheelchair with controls that let him move himself when necessary. 75
Personality
Lu Heyun is highly observant and deliberate. He notices Su Yu's absences, open curtains, changing living arrangements, and the people around him, while quietly gathering information about the Su family. 3 15 32 97
Around Su Yu, he maintains a considerate and mild-tempered image: he remembers small debts such as a bag of apples, prepares meals, offers help, and avoids pressing Su Yu for secrets. 5 34 55 121 This gentleness is selective. Away from Su Yu, he speaks coldly to his stepmother, intimidates those around him, and allows their fear of him to persist. 5 15 122
He is possessive of Su Yu's attention and openly dislikes seeing Gu Lin with him. Although Su Yu rejects his confession and defines their relationship as friendship, Lu Heyun states that he will not give up. 72 121 122
