Chapter 1441 Xiaojiu's Concerns
You must be crazy to do such a thing and say such words. Later, I ordered Lu Bai to keep his mouth shut and not tell anyone.
It is definitely a big stain on his life.
Lu Xiaojiu's eyes were almost narrowed into a line when she laughed. They grew up together, so it is understandable that there are some misunderstandings. "I said that Chu Lin used to have a special opinion of me. It turns out that he was jealous. Does Ah Sheng know about his confession to you?"
"I should... know." Lu Bai said.
"It's a tragedy." Lu Xiaojiu smiled without sympathy, "Everyone in Country C loves Mr. Chu, this is retribution in this life."
"Don't tell him that you know about this." Lu Bai said, "I don't want to fight against my own family."
"Hahaha..." Lu Xiaojiu felt that this was the happiest thing she had heard recently.
Harry asked, "Mommy, what are you laughing at? You look so happy. Harry wants to know, too."
"It's about your father Chu." Lu Xiaojiu smiled and said, "When I was young, I often felt that Chu Lin was rejecting me. I never found the reason, and I didn't find the reason until I went abroad. When we played together before, he would give me the cold shoulder whenever I came. I didn't think I had offended him, and I even went home to prepare snacks to show my goodwill to him. But he said it was unpalatable, which really pissed me off. I didn't understand why until I went abroad to study. Today, you suddenly solved my doubts for many years. It's really... so happy."
"Maybe he didn't just give you the cold shoulder because of me?" Lu Bai said, "Ah Lin has a strong possessiveness and always treats Ah Sheng as a girl. He gets angry when anyone wants to play with Ah Sheng. I remember that when Ah Sheng was a child, he liked to stick to you and play with you the most. You also often went in and out of the Prince's Mansion. You should be closer to each other, otherwise he would be very unhappy."
"Who knows? Young Master Chu can even make a mistake in liking someone." Lu Xiaojiu couldn't help laughing again.
"After all, he was only fifteen years old at that time." What does a fifteen-year-old boy know?
"Aren't those kids in the First Terrorist Organization all teenagers? Look at them, and then look at you. There is really no harm without comparison, but you must be much happier than them."
Lu Bai, "..."
Yes, they must be much happier than Bai Ye and his friends.
When they were fifteen or sixteen years old, they were carefree, a group of brothers and buddies, full of youth, playing everywhere, and never regretted it. Bai Ye and his friends seemed to have no adolescence, or even childhood, and directly entered a bloody life, which is also a great regret in life.
"Isn't Mu Liang going to settle in New York? When that time comes, Dudu will also come, and Harry will have a companion. It's still fun to play with friends. Harry is too lonely alone." Lu Xiaojiu said.
How happy they were before all the tragedies happened.
"If you give birth to a child, Harry will have a companion. If you give birth to a girl, I will train Harry to be my son-in-law." Lu Bai said, "I still trust the successor I trained myself, and I will keep the wealth within the family."
Lu Xiaojiu, "..."
There is no sign of a daughter yet, but you have already decided on a son-in-law.
That's fine.
"What about a son?"
Lu Bai, "..."
I really haven't thought about this.
"If you give birth to a son, Harry will have to train a daughter-in-law, right?"
Lu Xiaojiu, "..."
Lu Bai's smile is like a warm sun in the cold winter. The sun shines in from the French windows, making him look like a handsome young man walking out of a painting. Lu Bai has always left a cold impression on the public, like a contestant who has been locked up in a mental hospital for many years and has just been released. He is cold, sinister, and a patient who can have a mental illness at any time. His temperament is superior to his appearance, and even the best appearance is submerged. Now, it's like peeling off the fog and finally peeping into his true face. Everyone found that their President Lu is actually such a handsome young man, gentle and beautiful, like a painting.
A person's temperament comes from the inside out. The same face has different feelings.
Especially Harry smiled at Lu Bai with his face up, and his tender face looked even more beautiful in Lu Bai's eyes.
The female employees' hearts were pounding. Except for the socialite Lin, they found that Lu was as handsome as a banished immortal.
"Daddy, many sisters look at you..." Harry said.
"Your daddy attracts bees and butterflies..."
"Mommy, what is attracting bees..." He couldn't remember how to say that word for a while.
"It means praising daddy for being handsome."
"Daddy is handsome."
"You are more handsome." Lu Xiaojiu said.
"I am more handsome."
Lu Bai said, "Harry, didn't you say daddy is handsome?"
Harry tilted his head and smiled, "I am handsome."
Lu Xiaojiu chuckled, Harry is getting more and more lovely.
After breakfast, Harry had a slight fever. Lu Bo and Xiao Jiu took him home and gave him an injection. Harry cried loudly. Xiao Jiu's condition was very mild. However, Harry was afraid of needles. Injections have become a common occurrence since he was a child. The nurses may not be very skilled. Harry would tremble and cry when he saw the needle. Lu Bo tried to comfort him for a long time but failed. Finally, he cried and fell asleep.
"Poor little thing..."
Lu Bo asked, "How long will he need injections?"
"About a week."
"Some of them cried." Lu Bai said that a child over two years old didn't understand anything and his mind was not mature. He was just a confused toddler. He didn't understand the truth you talked to him about, and he didn't have a basic sense of right and wrong. Apart from coaxing and distracting him, they really couldn't be too cruel to a child. Lu Bai rubbed his son's head.
Lu Xiaojiu asked, "How did he get lung disease?"
"When I picked him up, the weather was very cold. His parents abandoned him. I don't know how long he had been lost. When I picked him up, his whole body was purple and he had a high fever. When I sent him to the hospital, I thought he wouldn't survive. Later, there were many things, and I didn't care much. Mengying often went to see him. Several times he couldn't be saved. Originally, they planned to send Harry directly to the local welfare home. Mengying and a few others often went there. Ah Sheng happened to be there and followed him out of curiosity. He liked Harry at first sight, so he took him back to New York for treatment. When he was brought back, Harry was more than eight months old. The medical conditions here are advanced, so his condition stabilized and he has been kept in the hospital." Lu Bai gently stroked his skin.
"When I first met Harry, he was particularly clingy to Ah Sheng. Strangers didn't want to get close to him, and he also rejected me. After Ah Sheng returned to China, he cried with me for several days, but I left him alone. I fed him every day and made sure he didn't starve to death. Later, he probably knew that crying was useless, so he became a little more obedient and willing to talk to me. Harry is very well-behaved and likable when he doesn't cry or make trouble."
...
"Then... haven't you looked for his parents?" Lu Xiaojiu asked.
"Since they have abandoned him, why bother looking for him again?" Lu Bai said, "Harry will get a better education and better resources with us, and we will love him, which is much better than him with his biological parents. Since they have cruelly abandoned Harry, they must not want him anymore."
Lu Xiaojiu was filled with a sad atmosphere. Sometimes, the child is gone, not abandoned. Just like that year, if someone picked up her child, she would really be grateful. Even if she didn't know where the child was, as long as he was alive, she wouldn't have been a walking corpse for so many years.
However, she knew in her heart that it was self-deception.
In that deep forest, in that environment, her baby was a premature baby, and his body was not good. It was difficult for him to survive two hours, let alone a whole night. The probability of survival was too slim.
After returning that year, she was unwilling to give up, and went back with Xiao Qiao to ask the nearby hunters, and was even willing to pay a high price to find the baby. Some people coveted the money and really found a child to deceive her. Xiao Qiao was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. After she was full of hope, she was thrown to the ground fiercely.
Later, she gradually became desperate.
"Xiao Jiu?" Lu Bai called her several times. Lu Xiaojiu came to her senses and looked a little pale. She shouldn't think about this matter. Such sadness cannot be concealed. If Lu Bai gets to the bottom of it, she can't hide it.
"I'm thinking about the recent case of the serious crime team selling newborns, and I feel a little sad."
"It's almost the New Year. If you have nothing to do, you should rest more. You've been busy all year, why are you still cooperating with the serious crime team?"
"Find something to do, so you won't be so... idle." She can't be idle. She keeps herself busy like a top. When she is idle, she will think of her children. She is with Lu Bai and dares not sleep too deeply all night. Even if they are crazy all night, she will try to stay awake.
She is afraid of... having nightmares.
There are surveillance cameras in her room. She has seen herself having nightmares, calling for the child, like crazy, and constantly self-abusing. She doesn't want Lu Bai to see this scene, and doesn't want to bring such sadness to Lu Bai.
"I'm going to Wuyoumen."
"Go to bed." Lu Bai said, forcing her to come to sleep, "I often get up at night recently, and you don't sleep well. There is nothing serious about Wuyoumen. Isn't Xiao Qiao back? You should catch up on your sleep."
He also doesn't understand why Xiaojiu looks so exhausted.
"I..."
"Don't say anything." Lu Bai said, and whispered, "Have a good rest."
Lu Xiaojiu sighed, "Xiaojiu went to Wesley's office recently."
"Wuyoumen will call her when there is something. You are a doctor, why are you working so hard? Go to sleep." Lu Bai said, "Otherwise, I will blame myself. Did I overdo it at night and you didn't sleep well?"
"No!"
"Then go to sleep."
"Okay, I know, then you go to the study. I have a light sleep and I can't sleep with you here." Lu Xiaojiu said.
Lu Bai, who originally wanted to sleep with her, gave up the idea. Lu Xiaojiu woke up very frequently at night, as if she didn't fall asleep at all. He really didn't dare to disturb her, lest she couldn't sleep.
The sound insulation of each room is very good. Once Lu Bai closed the door, there was no sound at all. Lu Xiaojiu said to Xiao Qiao, covered with the quilt and thought about it. What if she was honest with Lu Bai?
