Chapter 1172 As Tall as Dad

"This is a new contract we have made with you. Sun Zhong has resigned, and his current position is still vacant. Since you have been in charge of Sun Zhong for so many years, think about it, in terms of department matters and business, you are Very familiar, so you will take his place now. The people under your command have not changed. Do you have any objections to this contract? If not, we can sign the contract now and make it effective. Of course. Please return to the art academy as soon as possible."

Xia Ruoxin was really tired of being pushed for manuscripts. Who started this matter? Naturally, who should handle it.

When Xu Ziru heard that Xia Ruoxin wanted him to replace Sun Zhong, he almost became a fool. He took the contract and signed his name without thinking, not for his new identity, but for It was because he owed Xia Ruoxin's favor, and he was willing even if Xia Ruoxin sold him.

Of course, Xia Ruoxin couldn't sell him. On the contrary, his treatment was very good. In order to allow him to take care of his daughter nearby, Xia Ruoxin arranged for him a house very close to the company, and with Xu Ziru's future salary, she would There is no problem at all in finding a responsible nanny to take care of your daughter when she goes to work.

Of course, he will understand these things in the future, but now, the most important thing is Mengmeng's surgery.

Mengmeng's operation was very successful. When the doctor came out and told them that the operation was very successful, Xu Ziru, a grown man, squatted on the ground holding his head and burst into tears.

Xia Ruoxin leaned her back against the wall, feeling something indescribable.

This is how you felt when you met Gao Yi.

Chu Lu asked her about the kind of survival after the disaster, the kind of hope to survive.

Xia Ruoxin raised her eyelids and did not answer his question.

I know that Chu Lu is not jealous. On the contrary, he is very grateful to that man. Although he is his love rival, he has saved Mengmeng and Xu Ziru now. It cannot be said that he is a good person, just because the father and daughter It was almost the same experience as Xia Ruoxin's mother and daughter.

His daughter also met Gao Yi at that time, so he was grateful, just like Xu Ziru was grateful to Xia Ruoxin herself.

Suddenly, Xia Ruoxin raised her face and stared at Chu Lu's profile, which was still too angular. It seemed that due to the refraction of the light at this time, the arc became much softer.

There was also some white hair between his temples. It used to be just some, but now it is all white, and he did not deliberately dye the two sides black. To him, maybe he is already old. , even if his body functions are normal, or even stronger than the average person, he is still old.

I have gone through thousands of sails and gone through hardships.

In fact, now, it is no longer possible to speak clearly with just one mouth. Life is actually very short. Just as she had advised Wu Sha, could it be that she really has to wait until her hair is gray and her life is over before she can let go of all her stubbornness and persistence?

Some stubbornness is self-inflicted, and some persistence is useless.

"Chu Lu..." Suddenly, she faintly called out the man's name. The rustling voice seemed to start from the memory of standing under the tree more than twenty years ago, when he was still a child. , that year, she was younger.

Well, what's wrong? Chu Lu stood up straight, always keeping a certain distance from her, not because he didn't want to get close, but because he was afraid of being too close and arousing her disgust.

Xia Ruoxin let out a gentle breath. She closed her eyes, and then opened them again. There was a little more clarity in her eyes.

"Let's try it, just think of it..." She lowered her eyelashes and her eyes fell on her plain white fingers.

"Just treat it as the last chance. It's not for anything else. I just don't want my daughter to have a stepfather or stepmother. Although this possibility is really small, it is not impossible."

And there is only such a man beside her now.

Maybe, you can really give it a try, even if everyone says they are not suitable.

It took Chu Lu a while to react, and a burst of ecstasy passed through his heart. He quickly stood up straight and walked to Xia Ruoxin's side. His chest was heaving violently. He was excited and trembling.

For such a man, even if someone dies in front of him, he may calmly think about how this person died. It was a business dispute, not a loss in business, or else he would retaliate.

What are such worthless people doing in the world? They are wasting a lot of rice.

But now he is so excited that he can't even say a complete sentence.

"Ruoxin, thank you," the man didn't dare to make any big moves. He just stretched out his big hand to hold Xia Ruoxin's slightly cool hand.

"I swear, I swear on my life, this is the last time."

real.

Xia Ruoxin's red lips trembled and she said nothing, while the palms that she clenched were scalding hot, very warm. And this temperature seeped from her skin into her own blood. Then it wandered between the internal organs and the six abdomen, refuting the beating of her heart, and seemed to bring about some indescribable...

Peace of mind.

Chu Lu opened the door, and all the nannies at home were there. On the table in the living room, Xiao Yudiao was obediently writing homework. Her hair was still in that slightly curly style, and her eyebrow-length bangs were cut very neatly. .

Sitting opposite him was a young boy. He was teaching Xiao Yudian to write. He taught him very seriously, and Xiao Yudian also wrote very seriously.

Zheng Anze looked up and saw Chu Lu, and he quickly stood up.

"Hello uncle, hello auntie."

The boy is still very young, and his childishness can be seen on his face, but he is very tall, and he looks like an adult when he blends in with the crowd.

Xia Ruoxin walked over and compared Zheng Anze's height.

"Anze, you seem to have grown taller again?" It was okay for her to put on high heels, but once she put on flat shoes, she was so much shorter than Zheng Anze, and indeed she was taller than the Zheng Anze she saw last time. .

Why did this child grow so tall all of a sudden? How many centimeters did he grow in this year?

"My brother has grown fifteen centimeters taller," Xiao Yudian wrinkled his little nose, "Xiao Yudian has only grown five centimeters," Xiao Yudian stretched out his two little fingers, "My brother is a giant like my father."

Others were dumbfounded by what she said.

Chu Lu came over, knelt down and rubbed his daughter's little head.

"When Xiao Yudian grows up, he will be as tall as my brother."

"As tall as dad," Xiao Yudian hugged his father's neck and coquettishly said, "As tall as dad, but taller than my brother."

The corners of Chu Lu's eyes twitched slightly.
