Chapter 1393 Xiaojiu and Harry 2
"Do you know Shunfeng Bank?" Lu Bai asked him, and chose the most famous company of Fenghuo Group in China. After all, other companies' businesses only entered the Asian market three years ago. Some are very profitable but niche. They may not know it even if they are told. If Shunfeng Bank does not know, then it is definitely not an earthling.
"Of course I know, the safest and most profitable bank in the world."
"I am the chairman of Shunfeng Bank, so please... stay away from us, I am not short of money!" Lu Bai was annoyed.
Harry ran over, "Daddy, I don't want to play anymore."
He looked at the flat-headed man warily, and didn't like someone pestering his daddy.
"I don't want to play with you anymore, my eldest son, can I take you to play somewhere else?"
"Okay."
Lu Bai picked him up, and the flat-headed man said behind his back, "Your imagination is really beyond the sky, and you are the chairman of Shunfeng Bank. Who believes you? You look like a little white face, and you are still daydreaming."
"Talk less and read more when you have nothing to do." Lu Bai didn't even turn his head.
The flat-headed man snorted, then inexplicably took out his phone to search for the chairman of Shunfeng Bank. The chairman listed on all the search websites was Lu Bai himself. The strange life and a series of titles and degrees shocked the flat-headed man so much that his eyes were stunned. Looking at Lu Bai's photo again, he was struck by lightning. He was really the chairman of the world's largest bank. Although the temperament in the photo was very different from the Lu Bai he saw, it was indeed Lu Bai.
"It's really a ghost, a big shot!"
...
Lu Bai stayed in City A until the last day of the year and boarded the plane back to New York. It was particularly cold in City A that day. Harry's nose was sensitive and was frozen red. Lu Bai smiled and hugged him while waiting for the flight. Mu Liang, Qiao Xia and others repeatedly tried to keep him, but Lu Bai did not stay and insisted on returning to New York for the New Year. This year he was not alone. With Harry accompanying him, he felt very satisfied. However, he did not expect to meet Lu Xiaojiu in the VIP lounge. Lu Xiaojiu was not wearing a mask. She was carrying a small suitcase and looked tired. After her birthday, they did not meet much. In the past two years, they had very few opportunities to meet. Even if they went to a coffee shop, they rarely met. Although they were both in New York, they had no chance to meet.
Lu Xiaojiu was also a little surprised to see Lu Bai. What surprised her was Lu Bai's entire appearance.
It was as if she had returned to ten years ago.
A person's mood affects his overall mental outlook. This sentence is most suitable for Lu Bai. The air conditioner was on in the waiting hall and it was warmer. Lu Bai was wearing a royal blue shirt, casual trousers, and a neat hairstyle. He looked very energetic. With his gentle eyes, he was simply a specimen of a handsome man. He looked healthier and younger than the Lu Bai she had seen in the past few years.
Next to him lay a little girl, who looked only about two years old. Her face was white and chubby. She was lying on the sofa and messed up her braided hair. Several strands of hair were scattered in her eyes. She climbed up and threw herself into Lu Bai's arms, "Daddy, hair..."
These days, Harry called Daddy more and more fluently, and occasionally called A Bo. In the past, he always called A Bo and occasionally called Daddy.
He pulled his hair in a wronged manner, interrupting Lu Bai's sight. Lu Bai smiled, as if flowers bloomed and ice and snow melted in the warmth. Lu Xiaojiu could not bear it. She even forgot when she last saw such a smile.
Lu Bai took out a comb and untied Harry's hair, "Baby, can you cut your hair when you get home?"
"Okay." Harry was very obedient.
Lu Xiaojiu stared at the father and son in a daze. She clearly heard Harry calling daddy. She looked at Harry. Except for his brown eyes, she could not find any similarity with Lu Bai. Compared with Lu Bai, Harry's appearance was much softer.
Is this his daughter?
Xiaojiu subconsciously clenched her fists, and remembered the nightmarish stormy night, the baby crying constantly circling in her ears. She had been wondering what it would be like to have Lu Bai as a father. Now, she saw it.
Very gentle and patient, his fingers were very deft, and he helped the little girl to braid her beautiful pigtails. This was the gentleness she had never seen before, and he seemed to be glowing. Lu Xiaojiu felt as if thousands of arrows pierced her heart. She suddenly stood up without even taking care of her luggage, and walked quickly to the bathroom beside her and locked herself in the bathroom. Lu Bai looked at her and sighed softly, "Harry, she seems to have misunderstood something. Do you think Daddy wants to explain?"
"You are so handsome."
"Yes, I am handsome, and I have the final say, right?" Lu Bai rubbed his nose.
Lu Xiaojiu was trembling and spasming all over. In the past few years, even Xiao Qiao did not dare to mention the child, fearing that she would be hit. Many times at night, she was haunted by nightmares. She dreamed that the baby was buried in the tiger's mouth, torn into pieces, or washed away by the river, and was dying and calling for her mother. In the dream, she cried hysterically, and her heart was broken, but she still couldn't forget it. She knew that she would never forget it. The wound was there. It had been bleeding for more than two years and had never healed. She loved the child madly, but was also desperate about her loss. No matter where she went, she would deliberately avoid the baby. Sometimes in the small space of the plane, if she heard a baby crying, she would become restless and prone to collapse. She would never forget the child she had lost.
Now, the image of Lu Bai holding the child deeply stimulated the wound in her heart, and pierced her wound deeper. Lu Xiaojiu's blood surged up, stimulating her blood to churn, and she tasted blood in her throat. Her heart was overwhelmed with desperate revenge. She wanted to ask Lu Bai, who is the mother of your child? You are so gentle and loving to her, but do you know that you once had a son? Do you know that your son was buried in the mountains and had no place to bury his body?
He enjoyed the joy of family and the sweetness of father and daughter, but she endured the pain of losing her son alone. This is unfair, this is unfair. Lu Xiaojiu had difficulty breathing. She opened her mouth and breathed deeply. Those repressions and despair broke her defenses. Lu Xiaojiu squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.
Baby, your daddy doesn't know you exist.
He can't feel sad when you die.
…
The gruesome revenge and cruel words in Lu Xiaojiu's heart were repeated over and over again. She could even feel that she could see the despair on Lu Bai's face. However, she did nothing but hide in the independent bathroom in the airport, hugging her cold body, crying, and bearing the despair of losing her son alone. Just like the death of her parents and Tianyi, in her heart, it was a pain that would never end.
All her important people left her one by one.
Lu Xiaojiu did not come out of the bathroom until it was almost time to board the plane. Lu Bai was in the first class seat and was not in a hurry to board the plane. He was holding Harry and waiting. Lu Xiaojiu wore a pair of sunglasses and sat coldly not far from him. Lu Bai could not see her expression, but he could feel her coldness.
"Xiaojiu, long time no see." Lu Bai greeted.
Lu Xiaojiu turned his face away. Harry hid in Lu Bai's arms, looking at Lu Xiaojiu timidly, and occasionally looked up at Lu Bai. Lu Bai tapped his son's nose. After everyone boarded the plane, they boarded the last plane, the same flight. There were only four seats in the first class cabin, which was very spacious and bright. Lu Xiaojiu could see Lu Bai and Harry by turning his head.
"Daddy, I'm not feeling well." Harry said.
"Where are you feeling unwell?"
"I don't like airplanes." Harry felt uncomfortable.
Harry didn't like enclosed spaces, and he had never liked them since he was a child. Lu Bai had a premonition that he would make a noise soon, so Lu Bai asked the space to make her a bottle of milk, and he hugged Harry to coax him.
"Baby, be good for a while, don't cry, if you cry, Daddy will feel uncomfortable too."
"I want to go down!" Harry began to toss and turn, feeling uncomfortable all over, twisting and turning constantly, the air in the plane was stuffy, Lu Bai helped him untie a piece of clothing, "We can't go down, we need to go home, if we go down, we can't go home."
"I feel uncomfortable!" Harry frowned and suddenly cried, Lu Bai held him in his arms, "Baby, be good, don't disturb others, okay? Let's eat something, take a nap and we'll be home."
"No, wuwu..." Harry cried in his arms, although he didn't make any sound, his tears kept flowing, Lu Bai took out the lollipop, Harry licked the lollipop while sobbing and shedding tears, feeling particularly wronged.
Lu Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Lu Xiaojiu looked at their interaction, and his heart was broken. He simply closed his eyes, but he could still hear Lu Bai's gentle laughter. The plane took off. Harry felt uncomfortable under the pressure. He looked at Lu Bai with tears in his eyes. When there were many people, Harry didn't dare to cry. He only cried when he was alone with Lu Bai. When the plane was slightly stable, Lu Bai unfastened his seat belt and held Harry in his arms. Harry drank the milk and felt a little more comfortable.
"Are you feeling more comfortable?"
Harry nodded and finished drinking the milk. Lu Bai touched his head, "So good!"
Little Harry was particularly happy to get the reward.
"Mr. Lu, your daughter is so cute." In addition to Lu Bai's family of three, there was also a middle-aged American man in the first class cabin. Lu Bai looked at him for three seconds, and his mind filtered people's faces like a meticulous machine, "Mr. Green, long time no see, you are still as elegant as ever."
"Mr. Lu is the one. I haven't seen you for half a year. You look very energetic." Although he still looked sick, at least he looked more comfortable than before, not like a venomous snake.
Lu Bai nodded, not wanting to chat with him, he was just a business partner.
Children would get impatient if they sat for a long time, Lu Bai took out the computer and taught him to play games. Harry played for a while and then stopped playing. Lu Bai wanted to say a few words to Xiao Jiu, but Lu Xiao Jiu was surrounded by indifference within one meter.
"Daddy, I miss Brother Xiao Shu."
"I miss Brother Xiao Shu. Can Daddy take him to see him after a while?"
"Okay." Harry smiled cutely.
Lu Bai carried him to the seat next to him, "Baby, sit down and have a good rest. You will be home after a good sleep."
