Chapter 269: Let it go

The kidnapping has not been publicized since the beginning, so except for them and a few people from the Lei Mansion, others did not know about the thrilling scene that happened that night.

So Lei Mu didn't want to say much, every time she thought about the scene of that night, the feeling of fear and helplessness at that time would invade again, especially the scene where Bei Xiaorou bravely turned around and left alone, which aroused the pain and guilt in her heart again and again, and it was also the reason why she didn't want to think about it again.

Shu Manxue's eyes flashed slightly, pursed her lips, and observed the side face of Lei Mu who didn't want to say more without a trace, her soft little face floated with a little doubtful thoughts, she opened her mouth slightly, she wanted to find out something, but she couldn't open her mouth easily, for fear that she would accidentally expose herself, so she could only hold back the words back into her stomach anxiously and unwillingly, but she was also a little distracted and stopped unconsciously.

The two had already walked to the sofa at this time, Lei Mu slowly sat down with the help of the maid, and then turned to look at the woman who suddenly stopped, her eyes paused for a moment on her somewhat tense and strange little face, slightly condensed her eyebrows, and asked with a little doubt: "Man Xue, what's wrong with you?" ”

Shu Manxue woke up suddenly, and was slightly shocked at the inquiring gaze of Lei Mu, secretly blaming herself for being so careless, while quickly restraining her emotions, returning to her usual supple and well-behaved appearance, she stepped forward and sat next to Lei Mu, pursed her lips, and used the injury on her foot as an excuse to cover up her distraction just now.

Seeing that she cared so much about herself, Lei Mu's heart warmed slightly, patted her hand to express relief, and then didn't say anything, picked up the health tea brought by the maid on the coffee table, and after taking a sip, she remembered Bei Xiaorou upstairs, beckoned to the maid on the side and ordered: "Add more red dates and honey to the cup, and send it to Xiaorou in the room, she likes it." ”

In these days, Lei Mu has learned a little about Bei Xiaorou's eating habits, the servant nodded with a smile on her face and led the way, but Shu Manxue on the side was full of astonishment and stunned, looking at Lei Mu with a slight smile on the corner of her lips, thinking for a moment that it was because of something wrong with her ears that she would hear such ridiculous words.

The hands on her knees clenched slightly, and she asked with her lips trembling, "Aunt Qing, are you talking about Bei Xiaorou just now?" You, how do you ......"

Lei Mu drank two more sips of health tea, listening to the shock and disbelief revealed in the woman's words, but the expression on her face did not change in the slightest, and she calmly slowly put the teacup back on the coffee table, and a trace of light crossed her lowered eyes.

"That's right, it's her!" Lei Mu slowly turned her head to look at the stunned woman beside her, and then spoke with a little more serious and cautious, "Man Xue, you deliberately misled me to misunderstand her before, and I don't care about those things with you now, after all, you are still young, and it is inevitable that you will make mistakes." But today Aunt Qing will make it clear to you, Xiaorou is the future daughter-in-law of my Lei family, I like her very much, I hope you won't play those tricks in the future. ”

In a word, Shu Manxue's face suddenly turned white, the hands on his knees were clenched into fists, his nails sunk deep into his palms and brought a hint of tingling, and his eyes were full of panicked shock.

She shook her head slowly, her lips trembled slightly, and she subconsciously opened her mouth to argue, "Aunt Qing, I didn't, you misunderstood me!" ”:

Unexpectedly, she still refused to admit what she had done, Lei Mu's face couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, her eyebrows furrowed, and her tone was a little harsh, "Do you think Aunt Qing is stupid, you will believe everything you say, so you deceive me again and again?!" ”

Shu Manxue's body stiffened slightly, facing her stern and cold gaze, her little face became a little whiter, she shook her head harder, tears appeared in her eyes, she looked very pitiful, trying to use her weakness to arouse Lei Mu's pity again, and the noise was even more choked and aggrieved, "Aunt Qing, I didn't, I really didn't think so, you believe me!" ”

As he spoke, his little hand hurriedly grabbed her arm, looking at Lei Mu with fragile and expectant eyes, lined with tears that slid down his cheeks, even more weak and innocent.

I have to say that Schumann Xue knows how to show his weakest side, and knows how to use it as a weapon to add points to himself.

After all, she is a girl who has grown up since she was a child, and she almost treats her as half a daughter, even if she was angry before, but seeing her crying pitifully now, she can't harden her heart anymore.

What's more, in the final analysis, all this she did was just because she fell in love with her son, and when she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little sorry and distressed, and she couldn't bear to criticize her anymore.

Lei Mu sighed softly, reached out and gently shook her trembling hands that were clutching her, and her tone softened a little, "Okay, the previous things are over." ”

Schumann couldn't help but flash a glimmer of surprise in her eyes, but her words that fell next made her stunned for a while.

"I didn't expect you to like Ziqian, I didn't notice it for so many years, you are a child, if you can say it earlier, maybe ......" Lei Mu's tone paused slightly, her eyes flashed, looking at the soft little face of the woman next to her with tears, she shook her head lightly for a while, and said with a sigh on her face: "I think you only have the fate of being brothers and sisters after all, and you will always meet the true destiny that really belongs to you, so child, let it go!" ”

Lei Mu patted her hand, looking at her with loving and gentle eyes, but her gaze was like a sharp blade to Shu Manxue at this moment, stabbing her to the ground. A heart is like falling into an ice cellar, so cold and piercing, cold through the whole body, and the face is as white as winter ice and snow.

There was an unwilling sparkle of surprise in her bright eyes, she looked at Lei Mu in a daze, and the tears in her eyes suddenly rolled down after a pause.

She shook her head slowly at first, and then the amplitude became bigger and bigger, grabbed Lei Mu's hands and tightened them violently, and choked up with a hoarse noise: "Aunt Qing, how can you say such cruel words, obviously I met Brother Ziqian first and fell in love with him first, why did she Pei Xiaorou rob him with me!" ”

At the last sentence, she almost roared, and her eyes flashed with jealousy and resentment, which reduced her weakness and pity a little.

Lei Mu frowned, partly because of the strangeness brought by seeing her sudden change of expression, and partly because the strength with which she was clutching her arm hurt her.

Her expression sank slightly, with some unhappiness, and she pursed her lips and spit out a sentence, "Let go, you scratched me!" ”

But at this moment, Shu Manxue, who was burning with fire, did not feel the displeasure in her words, nor did she realize how inappropriate her current behavior was.

Panicked, she tightened her hands more and more, looking at Lei Mu with pleading and expectant eyes, the noise was filled with a kind of desperate panic and helplessness, "Aunt Qing, what you said just now was a joke, right?" Haven't you always liked me? Wouldn't it be nice for me to be your daughter-in-law? So that I can take care of you with filial piety, how can that woman compare to my concern for you! ”
