Chapter 149: The Story
"Still haven't eaten?" Wang Xiumei watched Li Yuan come out of her daughter's room, her face full of anxiety.
"I won't even look at it."
Li Yuan is also anxious, he has been looking for Xiaobao in the past few days, and he is basically sure that Xiaobao is in Repulse Bay.
Bodyguards are arranged around Repulse Bay, and it is definitely not possible to break in.
The police and the police department also had no way to impose legal sanctions on Lu Tianchen because of insufficient evidence, so they could only limit and restrict his situation, and there was no other way.
And Lu Tianchen also refused to meet with him.
Wang Xiumei looked at Li Yuan's pity for her daughter, took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
Xu Ruonan was lying on the bed, wrapping himself in a ball with an air-conditioned quilt, without the slightest intention of opening his eyes, and when he heard footsteps coming from far and near, he just didn't hear it.
Wang Xiumei walked lightly to the bed and said softly: "Ruonan, let's eat something, Li Yuan, this kid has been thinking of a way, you are like this, my mother and him are uncomfortable to watch." ”
Xu Ruonan's eyes were red and swollen, and his vocal cords were as painful as anxiety, "Mom, do you think I'm stupid?" Why did I have feelings for him, otherwise I wouldn't have been deceived so badly, I lost my body and lost my heart, and now I can't even keep the child......"
Wang Xiumei's eyes were sore, she hugged her shoulders and picked her up, "If you are a man......"
"But that's fine." Xu Ruonan opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling above his head, and there was no fluctuation in his voice, "He feels that in the past three years, I have hidden Xiaobao, and I am sorry for him, and now, he is forcing me like this, I can finally no longer feel the slightest guilt about him." ”
Wang Xiumei took advantage of the situation to hold the seafood porridge at the bedside in her hand, "Ruonan, the porridge is still hot, drink it first." ”
Xu Ruonan shook his head, "I don't have an appetite." ”
I fell asleep for two days, but I could only wander between half dreaming and half waking up, and my dreams were full of Xiaobao's small figure, his little face, and his little hands......
It was as if someone had pinched her heart so hard that it squeezed out a drop of blood and made it difficult for her to breathe.
Suddenly, she lifted the quilt, stood up a little shaky, staggered to the coffee table to find the fruit knife, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm going to kill him, Mom, only by killing him can Xiaobao really belong to me." ”
Wang Xiumei hugged her and exclaimed: "Don't be impulsive, you kill him, you have to pay for your life, what will Xiaobao do when the time comes?" You want to make him an orphan?! ”
Xu Ruonan's emotions were a little out of control, he looked back at his mother with tears in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "But I hate him, Mom, I hate him, he ruined the Lin family, ruined my life, I hate, I hate." ”
"Nope! Your life won't be ruined by him! Wang Xiumei forced herself to calm down, she held her daughter's face with both hands, and said in a low but firm voice: "Our life will not be ruined by him, you believe me, there will be a way." ”
Xu Ruonan's thoughts returned, and he sat back on the edge of the bed in a daze
Wang Xiumei picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of porridge, handed it to her mouth, and forced her to drink it.
Xu Ruonan saw the silver hair in front of his mother's forehead, his eyes were hot, and he sniffed half-loudly, before he opened his lips to endure the tearing sensation at the corner of his mouth, and took the porridge in, in, mouth, and inside, but just when it reached his throat, there was a violent stinging pain.
She spit it out all of her mouthful, mixed with a little blood, which made people's hearts palpitate on the snow-white sheets.
Wang Xiumei hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and desperately followed Xu Ruonan's back, "Ruonan, take your time......"
Ruonan pressed his heart and comforted his mother with tears in his smile, "Mom, I'..... I have to drink porridge well and get better before I can fight him! ”
Wang Xiumei was distressed, handed over the napkin, and wiped the corners of her mouth, "Yes, it should be like this." ”
Anyway, I drank half a bowl of porridge.
After that, she lay down again, and opened the corners of her chapped lips, "Mom, I want to sleep a little longer." ”
Wang Xiumei sighed, tucked her quilt, dimmed the lights, and walked out of the room.
......
An hour later, a taxi pulled up in front of Repulse Bay.
At this time, the lights are on.
A dignified woman got out of the car, stared around quietly, a hint of complexity flashed in her eyes, and then took a deep breath before knocking on the door.
The person who opened the door was the new butler, and he didn't know him, but the woman opened her mouth and said, "I want to see Lu Tianchen." ”
Steward Tian asked hesitantly, "May I ask who you are?" ”
"I am Xu Ruonan's mother."
Steward Tian understood: "Please wait a minute, I'll report it first." ”
Wang Xiumei narrowed her eyes: "Okay." ”
Soon, there was a word from there that she was allowed to enter.
Wang Xiumei was taken to the third floor by the housekeeper, the door of the study was ajar, and she saw Lu Tianchen sitting in the boss's chair working through a crack.
The jacket of the suit was on the back of the chair, and he was wearing only a white shirt, clean and tidy, even the tie was meticulous, and his eyes were calmly looking at the papers.
It is indeed the dragon and phoenix among people.
No wonder his daughter is devoted to him, and the past three years are also unforgettable, and he is unwilling to accept such a good Li Yuan.
The butler knocked on the door twice, and the man inside looked up before he said, "Sir, the old lady is here." ”
Lu Tianchen's expression was unwavering, and when he heard that Xu Ruonan's mother suddenly visited, he only narrowed his eyes very slightly.
She came to persuade peace, and then wanted to go back to Xiaobao.
After all, he was an older person, and he didn't want to be cold, so he bowed his head slightly and said, "Please take a seat!" "Love the Book House
Wang Xiumei sat down, pinned the broken hair in her ear behind her ear, she pursed her lips and said, "Mr. Lu, when are you going to keep the little treasure?" Do you know? Ruonan hasn't eaten properly for a few days, and now he is transfusing nutrient solution. ”
Lu Tianchen sat behind the desk and pondered for a moment: "If you are here to persuade me to hand over the child, then it is better not to talk about it." ”
Wang Xiumei clasped her hands together, sat upright and smiled lightly, and changed her words, "I won't talk about Xiaobao today, nor will I talk about the grievances between you and the Lin family, I just want to tell a story." ”
"Story?" Lu Tianchen raised his eyebrows and asked.
Wang Xiu frowned lightly and said solemnly: "Mr. Lu, the Lin family doesn't owe you anything, and Ruonan doesn't owe you anything!" And then, I just hope you listen to me tell the story! And I think you won't regret what you did to Ruo Nan after listening to the story! ”
Lu Tianchen's eyes flashed, and he leaned back on the back of the chair in a half-loud voice, his tone was neither heavy nor light, but with determination: "I won't regret it." I don't regret anything I did for her. ”
Wang Xiumei's heart was shocked.
Squinting at his words.
Lu Tianchen's lips straightened, returning the topic to the beginning: "What about your story?" ”
Wang Xiumei came back to her senses, looked into the depths of his eyes, and said in a quiet tone: "I have always lived with an ostrich mentality for myself, but today I saw my daughter so uncomfortable, I realized that my mother is too selfish...... So I decided, today I'm going to let you know how much you owe Xu Ruonan. ”
The hand under the desk was gently clenched and slowly released, and the man's eyes were as deep as a black pool, and there was a thickness that no water could release.
"Please!"
......
An hour later, Wang Xiumei got up slowly and said, "Mr. Lu, my story is finished, I hope you heard it, I will take care of Ruonan when I go back, and I will leave first." ”
As soon as Wang Xiumei pushed them, she saw Chen Zhen standing by the door with some documents, and the latter immediately turned sideways to give way to her.
"Madame, go slowly!"
"Thank you!"
It didn't take long for Lu Tianchen to let Chen Zhen into the study.
Looking up, the man was dressed in a straight suit, his head was lowered indifferently, and the signature pen was lifted with pages of A4 paper, in the right position, with iron and silver hooks.
Chen Zhen stared at the man's expression, as if he wanted to analyze his thoughts at this time.
He had been waiting outside the door an hour ago, for such a long time, I don't know what Wang Xiumei said to Lu Tianchen, whether he persuaded him not to fight with Xu Ruonan and them anymore, but at this moment, he found that he was always calm, and he didn't seem to have any reaction because of Wang Xiumei's arrival and what she said.
After he carefully read the document and signed it, it was already ten minutes later, Lu Tianchen seemed to be a little tired, put down the pen and put down his forehead and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep, as if he didn't realize that there was someone waiting for a reply in front of him.
Half-awake and half-dizzy, for no reason, he remembered the story told by Wang Xiumei sixteen years ago.
The corners of his mouth released self-deprecation, and the bottom of Lu Tianchen's eyes turned to rippling waves, and many emotions were intertwined in it and could not be described clearly.
Chaos conjures up that rainy night.
The corners of the girl's eyes raised with confidence: "This is Shi Wei, treating wounds, the effect is excellent!" This is Panax notoginseng, which can invigorate blood and remove blood stasis. ”
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, don't look at me as I'm only 12 years old, I know a lot about Chinese medicine."
The boy looked at the girl, with water in the corners of his eyes, and the pain in his body seemed to have eased a lot.
"Then you can paint it on me."
"I was going to paint it on you, but you questioned my medical skills, and now that I've changed my mind, I'm going to leave you alone and leave you to fend for yourself in this cave."
The boy panicked, "Don't, I was wrong, I'm sorry." ”
What he cared about was not that the girl really didn't give him the medicine, but that she was sad and angry because of his questioning.
……
A confident smiling face slowly sketched in front of him, as well as a pair of smiling eyes.
The crisp sound still seems to be in my ears.
"Hey, big brother, are you feeling better?"
"Much better."
"Look, there's no problem with my medical skills."
……
Chen Zhen finally couldn't help but want to explain the arrangements for the dinner, so he raised his eyes to look at the man, and his eyes were unintentionally together, and he saw that the man's consistently deep eyes were rippling like pearls under the light.
He was shocked, this is crying?
"Chairman?" He tightened his fingers, looked at the man in front of him with complicated eyes, and cautiously reminded, "You have a dinner party later." ”
Lu Tianchen came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and his voice was hoarse, "Tomorrow at noon, help me vacate it, and in addition, make an appointment with Xu Ruonan for me." ”
Chen Zhen was stunned, what are you going to do here?
In an instant, he said, "Okay." ”
Early the next morning, Xu Ruonan recovered a little spirit, and when she was eating, the phone rang, she glanced at the screen, and immediately picked it up, and Chen Zhencilong's voice came from the microphone.
"Miss Xu, Chairman Lu invites you to dine at Julong's sky restaurant at noon."
