080 Bai Lu's true feelings for He Xiao
I saw that the father and son had something to say, so I found an excuse to take the three children back to the room.
The three little ones waited for us for more than two hours, and they were a little sleepy, so I helped them wash up the things they needed yesterday in the room, and sorted out the toys that were scattered all over the place today, and when the three children were calmed down, the time was half past ten in the evening.
I stretched and walked out of the room, and saw He Liancheng at the door of my room.
He had obviously been waiting for a while, looking down at something, looking at the freshly washed woolen carpet under his feet, and the sound of my footsteps woke him up, and he looked up at me and asked, "Are you all asleep?" I just came out of my dad's study. ”
"They all slept, and just now the three little ones asked why they didn't play with them these days." I tuckled my loose hair and chuckled.
"It's been a bit busy lately, you work hard for a few more days, and when the group's affairs are on the right track, I can spend more time with the children." He Liancheng said, looked at my door and asked, "Can you go in and sit for a while?" ”
Ever since he appeared as Cheng Xin, we have slept in separate rooms. At first, I felt that I was a complete stranger, and I didn't think about the possibility of getting back together with him. Later, he remembered the past, but I didn't have that kind of hope, so it continued like this.
I opened the door, motioned for him to come in, then pulled a chair for him and sat down on the edge of the bed myself.
He sat across from me, looking at me gently with a light smile on the corner of his mouth, and after a while, when I felt a little awkward, he slowly spoke: "The older a person is, the less courageous he is, and I am not such a person." ”
"What?" I didn't understand, so I couldn't help but ask.
"A righteous gentleman." He chuckled.
In the past, this was a normal conversation between husband and wife, but now it sounds like I can't accept it, and I feel like I've been transferred.
He saw the discomfort on my face, sighed and asked, "When can you really forget the past me and accept the present me?" Or do I have to go back to the same face I used to have? ”
"It's not necessary to change back, I'm also trying to get used to you now, you give me a little time." I looked at him seriously.
He reached over and gently touched my face: "You have lost a lot of weight recently, eat more in the future." ”
I almost wanted to get out of the way right away, but I thought about it for a moment and held back.
He had a thin callus on his fingertips, slowly rubbed it on my face twice, let go of his hand and took a deep breath and said, "Although the old man is not in the company, he has a lot of eyes and ears, and he is a little anxious to know the movements of the Bai family so quickly." ”
I think about He Zelin's relief when the news first came out, and I also understand his sadness and anxiety after hearing the news.
"But the two of us didn't do this, so the old man can't blame you." I say.
"Yes, but seeing him so embarrassed, I can't get over it as a son." He paused for a moment before continuing, "But don't worry, you and Kuankuan are on this side of the scale, and Dad is on the other side of the scale, and I will try to balance as much as possible." For He Xiao, I can only do it at most, and as for the rest, it depends on his fate. ”
"If ......" I said two words and swallowed back, in the face of the current He Liancheng, he couldn't be as open-mouthed as before.
"What if?" He asked.
"Nothing."
I don't want to say that hypothesis, if I say it, maybe we will turn into a conversation against Chu Yi again. What I just wanted to say is what if the kidnapping of Kuankuan also has something to do with He Xiao?
But this assumption, I think, He Liancheng does not want to see. It's like I don't want to see Chu Yi have anything to do with this matter.
I don't like a person, it's one thing to be completely disappointed in someone; But it's another thing for the person I'm disappointed to count on my current husband's children for the sake of two children. It's not that when I'm disappointed in him, I can accept whatever he does. Anyway, he's a dad of two.
"Okay, then you can go to sleep, it's not too early." He Liancheng saw that I didn't say anything, and looked at the time to say goodbye.
I got up to open the door to see him off, and when I passed by him, he suddenly grabbed me, and I almost subconsciously resisted, but I didn't expect his hand to let go immediately, only to lightly tap my forehead and say, "Good night." ”
Then he walked out of the room.
He Xiao's matter was stuck like this, and I also wanted to slow down and say it again, so I didn't ask about the news from all sides, but I didn't expect that a week later, Bai Lu suddenly found me.
I got a call from a mysterious woman at work and asked me to sit downstairs.
Curious, I walked in, and was taken aback when I saw that it was Bai Lu, I met her at most and nodded at most, and I didn't even say a word, how could she suddenly find me?
She looked like she was not a good visitor, and when she saw me, she said coldly, "Please be seated." ”
I was a little amused and asked, "Miss Bai came to me for what?" ”
"You know what is going on!" She looked a little angry.
I know that she must have come to me for He Xiao's business, but no matter what aspect it is, He Xiao has such a thing, she can't find me. I am neither the third party Yu Miao, nor the person behind the news.
"I don't know, Miss Innocent made it clear." I categorically denied it to her, and quietly took out my phone and sent a message to Baishuang.
I don't want to get involved too much in the affairs of their Bai family, the best way is to let their family come and invite this little aunt and grandmother away.
"He Xiao and Yu Miao's affairs were a long time ago, and you still have to move out to make a play at this time, is it interesting?" She asked.
I think it's even more strange, it's been a week since this happened, and she suddenly thought to question me, this kid is unresponsive?
"First, I didn't do it; Second, it's been happening for a week; You came to me at this time, whether I was behind the scenes or not, was it a little late? I took a sip of tea and moistened my throat.
Although Bai Lu is a little more ladylike, the tea she ordered is really good.
"I was suddenly sent abroad with an inspection team, and I will only return to China tomorrow night." Bai Lu said, "So I just found out. ”
I understand, Bai Lu, the eldest lady, was pushed out, and then the other side departments of the Bai family did this. However, I must have greeted Old Man Bai in advance, otherwise it would be impossible for none of the entire delegation to leak her mouth.
The reason why Bai Lu is so willful is also because she is too well protected by her parents and sister, she doesn't understand the dark side of this society, she only knows how to do things according to her intuition and her most direct judgment.
Perhaps this is what He Xiao likes and can eat her.
I thought of this and sighed and asked, "How did you find me when you just knew?" ”
"I know that you and He Xiao are at odds, and I also know that He Xiao deceived you with the help of Yu Miao, saying that she was pregnant with He Liancheng's child." Bai Lu is a true temperament and straight temperament, and I told her all as soon as I asked.
I suddenly understood that He Xiao hadn't completely lied to her. This is the highest level of deception, the truth is half-mixed, Bai Lu is not deeply involved in the world, so he will naturally believe in He Xiao. Coupled with a woman's natural motherhood and partiality towards the weak, He Xiao must be the most innocent in her heart. In her eyes, He Xiao's father has not hurt since he was a child, his mother is not there, He Liancheng is suppressed everywhere, and he is a person who works hard to survive in the cracks. She should still be able to understand why He Xiao was able to do whatever it took to achieve his goal.
Even, Bai Lu was able to find me as soon as he came back, which may have been expected by He Xiao.
"Those were more than two years ago, I didn't care about it at the time, do you think I still need to worry about it now?" I asked her rhetorically.
If it weren't for He Xiao's attack on Kuankuan, I wouldn't even have forgotten about Yu Miao.
Bai Lu was stopped by me, thought about it and said, "That's because you didn't have a head-on conflict with him, and this time he attacked Kuankuan, so you want to revenge the old and new hatreds together." ”
"Okay, if you're right, I did it, and I'm the one behind this, then do you have a reason to question me? He attacked my child first, why can't I, as a mother, retaliate and fight back? I asked again.
I really didn't expect that He Xiao could also sue Bai Lu about the calculation of leniency, it seems that Bai Lu is desperate for her, which is even more powerful than I imagined.
"But you're all better off than he is! Your family is much happier than him, why can't you let him live? Bai Lu asked again.
I laughed at her right, this child's ability to think independently is less than one percent of that of white frost. It's no wonder that in the Bai Group, everyone has always known that only the eldest lady Baishuang, and the second miss Bailu is like a princess raised in the deep boudoir, there are many people who have heard the name, but few people have seen the true face.
"Have you ever heard of the saying that the poor must be hateful?" I asked, my voice a little harsh.
She had obviously heard this, her face changed, and finally she picked up the teacup with her hand almost viciously and said: "If the cooperation between the Bai family and Hanhua is aborted, I will transfer the equity of the twelve I hold and exchange it for cash to help He Xiao, no matter how you hit him, this money is enough for him to open a new company." ”
When I heard this, I especially wanted to sigh: How can He Xiao and He De let Bai Lu treat him like this? However, I didn't want to be misunderstood, so I said to her very seriously: "I reiterate to you once again that I didn't do the exposure of He Xiao and Yu Miao, and as for who did it, I don't know." Please don't just button my hat. ”
"Impossible!" She barely thought about it, and directly retorted.
At this moment, I saw Bai Shuang hurriedly walking to the mountain, and I was relieved to see me from afar, and then rushed over in a few steps, pulled out the chair between us and sat down, and asked Bai Lu: "As soon as I come back, I won't see anyone, I won't answer the phone, and I won't reply to WeChat?" What do you want? After the delegation came back, you didn't go to the board of directors to report, how can I talk to someone in a conference room who is waiting for you? ”
"Sister!" She didn't expect the hoarfrost to come suddenly, her face changed, and she called out in a not very good tone.
