Chapter 1396: New Year for a Family of Three

"Looks like a girl," Mengying said. After he turned one year old, his appearance opened up and he has always looked like a girl. I have never seen him look like a one-year-old. I only saw him a few months ago. It felt like... I thought at first glance It's a girl." Lu Bai said, "His hair is very soft and it's not easy to get a haircut."

"I'll help him cut it," Lu Xiaojiu said.

He's obviously a boy, but he's dressed like a girl, which is really eye-catching.

Lu Bai, "..."

"You don't want to?"

"That's not true." Lu Bai looked at her and called Harry over, "Harry, would you like me to cut your hair? Our hair has grown."

Today, Harry still has a bun, which is round and soft and very cute.

"Okay." Harry agreed obediently.

Lu Xiaojiu carried Harry to the bathroom to get a haircut. Harry's hair was soft and thin, and maybe because he was still young, he didn't have much hair. Lu Xiaojiu helped him comb his hair. How could any boy have such long hair?

Harry looked at the scissors in Xiaojiu's hand a little nervously.

"Are you afraid?" Xiaojiu asked.

Harry nodded honestly, and Lu Xiaojiu said, "Let's get a refreshing haircut so that we don't have to comb our hair in the future and will feel energetic."

"Does it look good?" Harry asked.

"It looks good." Lu Xiaojiu said, and cut off Harry's hair without any psychological pressure. After cutting it, Lu Xiaojiu began to trim it slowly, and soon he had a short haircut. Although it was a bit docile, it was pretty. She was energetic. She originally thought she would look more boyish after cutting her hair, but she still looked like a girl with short hair. Lu Xiaojiu thought to herself, there is no one else who looks like this, she probably looks like her mother.

"It doesn't look good." Harry looked at himself with short hair.

"Good-looking." Lu Xiaojiu said, "Like a little prince."

"They all say I look like a princess."

"They are blind, you are the little prince."

Lu Bai leaned against the door and watched her fooling Harry. He couldn't laugh or cry. He had an unspeakable feeling in his heart, which was quite warm. He was thinking, what would it be like if he and Lu Xiaojiu had a child? Like him, or like Xiao Jiu? Lu Bai's heart sank. He and Xiaojiu were so close by blood. If they really had a child, it was still unknown whether it would be a healthy child.

"Yeah, I'm a little prince!" Harry became happy, "What about my princess?"

Lu Xiaojiu, "..."

Lu Bai chuckled and looked at Lu Xiaojiu's speechless expression. He was very happy. Lu Xiaojiu's expression changed and he rolled his eyes at Lu Bai. He handed Harry to Lu Bai and she slammed the door to clean up the mess inside.

Lu Bai touched his son's head and said, "The hair is cut well. He is very energetic."

"My sister said I was a little prince."

"Yes, yes, yes, you are the little prince."

Lu Bai made dumplings and cooked two light dishes. He remembered Xiaojiu's taste and specially made some seafood for Xiaojiu. A sumptuous dinner was served. Harry was a little unaccustomed to his new hairstyle, so he took After looking in the mirror many times, Lu Xiaojiu said, "I really believe he was raised by Lin Jingsheng."

Harry had been on a plane for a long time and was tired from playing. He dozed off while eating dinner. After eating two dumplings, he almost fell asleep on the table. Lu Bai saw that he was really sleepy, so he carried him in and gave him a simple help. He took a shower and Harry fell asleep. This time Harry was exhausted and had no energy at all, so he fell asleep very quickly. Lu Xiaojiu was outside looking at the night in a daze.

Today is New Year.

So fast.

In the blink of an eye, eleven years have passed. Eleven years have passed since the tragedy of that year. Her heart is filled with a peaceful emotion. Those hatreds and those once fierce emotions are like being submerged in the long flow of time. middle.

Aunt Ling, in these ten years, do you want time to dilute my hatred?

Human life is very short. In the past twenty years, she has experienced more pain than happiness, but she is also very forgetful. She can hardly remember Tianyi's appearance, and she can hardly remember the happiness of those childhood sweethearts. , why does she hate Lu Bai? In the past eleven years, in circles, she spent the New Year with the person she once thought she hated the most.

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Bai stood beside her at some point and looked at her intently.

He was wearing white home clothes, and he was as tall as jade, like a beautiful man in a painting. The anger in his body disappeared, and she seemed to see the boy he was back then.

The past memories of those childhood sweethearts unfold like pictures in my heart.

"Eleven years." Lu Xiaojiu said, "Have you never been back to City C?"

"No!"

Lin Jingsheng and Chu Lin often went back. Lu Pang and Lu Tao once extended an olive branch to him. Fenghuo Group cooperated closely with the Ministry of National Defense of country C, and many orders were placed by their Ministry of Defense. However, he never went back.

"The Fenghuo Group has cooperated so closely with the c** side. They have allowed you to go back a long time ago, and no one will stop you from going back."

"It's not a surprise." Lu Bai sat down, "There's no one there anymore, and there's nothing for me to miss."

Lu Xiaojiu's eyes were gloomy and he lowered his head.

"Do you still hate me?"

"Do you still want to kill me?"

The two of them asked almost at the same time. Lu Bai looked at her. Apart from Lu Xiaojiu growing taller, her appearance had not changed much. She just lost some vigor and looked less youthful and energetic. Lu Bai sighed softly, "I hate it." Well, no matter what you love, you can’t escape fate after all. I don’t want to hate you anymore.”

No matter how much he hated her, when she was in the most danger, he would always risk his own life to protect her.

Xiaojiu did not answer his question about whether she wanted to kill him, and the two looked at each other in silence. After so many years, she finally understood one thing. All hatred is because of love. If you don't love him, where does the hatred come from.

Sadly, her hatred was drowned in the passage of time, but her love settled like wine in the passage of time.

If there had been no separation and no twists and turns between them, Lu Bai would have looked like what she saw now eleven years later.

Lu Xiaojiu said, "Last time...it wasn't me who fired the gun."

Lu Bai smiled and said, "Whether you drove it or not, actually, it doesn't matter to me."

Lu Xiaojiu looked at him, and Lu Bai said, "Over the years, you have shot me as many times as this once."

Lu Xiaojiu smiled and said, "Yes."

It was really unnecessary for her. Lu Xiaojiu stood up and took his bag, "Thank you for the dinner. I'll leave first."

Lu Xiaojiu took a deep look at Lu Bai. When he was walking past him, Lu Bai suddenly reached out and hugged Lu Xiaojiu tightly in his arms, holding her tightly with both hands. Lu Xiaojiu was startled and broke away slightly. Lu Bai pressed Holding her struggling shoulders, "Don't leave, let's watch the fireworks together."

In the early morning, there were huge New Year's fireworks in the square, and the church bells could be heard in the entire Financial Street. He wanted Lu Xiaojiu to spend it with him, on the first day and hour of the new year, with him. spend.

Lu Xiaojiu didn't move, and Lu Bai had no intention of letting her go. Lu Xiaojiu's face gently pressed against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, Lu Bai said that he only had half a year to live. .

Half a year is gone, and more than a month is missing. How many days does he have left?

Lu Xiaojiu felt sad, but felt that fate was playing tricks on people.

Tonight, this city is welcoming the New Year, and some people are destined to feel sad.

"Xiao Jiu, look, the fireworks are very beautiful." Lu Bai said, pointing to the sky. The first firework had quietly jumped into the sky. The whole sky became extremely gorgeous. Beautiful fireworks appeared one after another. Over New York.

On the balcony, the two of them welcomed the new year together. Looking at Lu Bai's smiling face, Lu Xiaojiu's heart beat loudly. He suddenly came back to his senses. Their eyes seemed to be twisted together. Those strange things that had been suppressed for eleven years... Love and hate were like a web, constantly torn in front of his eyes. Lu Bai suddenly lowered his head and kissed Lu Xiaojiu's lips. Lu Xiaojiu was startled and her reaction was a step slower. Lu Bai's lips touched hers gently. Take it seriously, just taste it.

"I know that the best outcome for us in this life is to disappear." Lu Bai said, "But I am always too greedy."

Lu Xiaojiu's heart was cut by a knife. The best outcome in their lives would be for them to disappear.

Yes, besides this ending, what kind of ending can they write? How long can he last with his illness? There are so many knots between them, so many gaps, so many lives, how should they be reckoned with?

On the floor-to-ceiling window opposite, a shadow was stretched very long, and the muzzle of the sniper rifle was like a bomb that could explode at any time in the dark night.

When Lu Xiaojiu left, it was already past midnight, but New York was bustling with lights and feasting. Unknowingly, she had taken root in this strange city for eleven years and was deeply accustomed to and adapted to this bustling city. , has also become her greatest attachment. However, the deepest attachment in her heart will always be City C. She thinks that she may never be able to go back to City C to settle down in this life. She has become an American and has taken root here. It is impossible for Lu Bai to be willing to return to City C. The city was a place like purgatory for Lu Bai. He had no reason to go back. He was already the overlord in New York.

Taxis were driving on the quiet street, and people not far away were setting off fireworks. The streets were celebrating the New Year. Except for Christmas, the New Year has gradually been accepted and taken seriously by New York, and it is becoming more and more lively every year. Lu Xiaojiu frowned and looked at the rear mirror. The car had already followed them two streets away. The taxi driver was not driving very fast, but he kept following him unhurriedly. It was very suspicious. Lu Xiaojiu saw a man in the mirror. The man with full beards was too far away to see his face clearly. Lu Xiaojiu gently touched the gun on his waist.

At the next fork, the car turned to the right. Lu Xiaojiu breathed a sigh of relief. Since becoming an agent, her nerves have become extremely sensitive. This sensitivity has almost become worse since she lost her child two years ago. Lu Xiaojiu rubbed her brows tiredly, maybe she was too worried.

Harry woke up in the morning and didn't see Lu Xiaojiu. While drinking milk, he asked Lu Bai, "Daddy, where is sister?"

"Sister is home."

"Will sister come again?" Harry asked.

"Do you like sister?"

"like?"

Lu Bai touched his head and said, "You're so good."
