Chapter Seventy-Nine: This Is America
Mu Yao couldn't sleep, he had slept enough on the plane just now, and now after returning to the room, Mu Yao changed his clothes and went out, and the parking lot prepared a car for himself, just like the red sports car in China.
He is no stranger to the United States at all, and he is familiar with every corner of every street here - regrets.
drove directly to the red light district, parked the car outside, and leaned on the door and bowed his head and was silent for a while, he didn't think about whether to walk in or not, such a place and people here are all Mu Yao is looking forward to.
So he put his hands in his pockets and walked inside.
The ground around is muddy, showing the dirtiness and unbearable of this red light district everywhere, and there are also many people squatting on the side of the street eating bread in their hands or staring at the cautious pedestrians on the road, as if thinking about who can start, when these people saw Mu Yao, they were stunned, and then spread their feet and ran for their lives.
One of them ran directly in front of Mu Yao in a panic.
Mu Yao thought it was very funny, the faces of these people had already become blurred in his mind, but he could still recognize it ridiculously, half of them were Orientals.
It's a long way from Chinatown.
He walked directly into an alley, probably because those people had just passed the word, but there was no one on the side of the road, he walked directly to the end of the alley, and suddenly reached out and pushed open a door.
Pushing open the door was a small garden, which had been abandoned for a long time, all the flowers had withered, and there were rotten trees piling up all around, and he frowned and walked inside.
The door of the little house was unlocked and thick with dust, and his brow furrowed even deeper, and he continued to push the door open.
Everything in the room was still the same as before, even the bottle of stomach medicine was still on the table, the same was covered with dust, and it was obvious that it had been uninhabited for a long time.
She- is she gone-
It's already night when you come out again, and the night in the red light district has never been quiet, there are all kinds of sounds, and Mu Yao walked back as if he hadn't heard it.
After getting into the car, I was silent for a long time before driving away.
Not long after his red sports car left, the lights suddenly turned on in the corner behind him, and a white business car drove out, the windows rolled down, and a pair of white and slender hands, holding cigarettes between their fingers, gently shook off the ashes.
A woman's sigh could be heard, and then, silently.
After a while, a voice came from the car.
"Let's go." It was a crisp female voice, very nice, like a yellow bird.
"Yes, will you go back to Mr.?"
"Hmm."
If you choose to leave, why do you want to show up again? She doesn't care about that anymore, doesn't she-
When Mu Yao came back, she unexpectedly saw Jiang Xiaojiu at the door, she leaned on the door and looked at the magazine in her hand, it seemed that she had been waiting for a while, he patted her head and forgot to leave a note on the door.
"How long have you been waiting?"
Jiang Xiaojiu turned around and closed the magazine.
"It didn't take long, half an hour, I woke up and came to ask if you wanted to eat, who knew you weren't at home, and you didn't leave a word for me, I thought you were just walking around."
Then I called the security office downstairs to ask, he drove away, and he wanted to go upstairs to wait for him, but he wanted to leave.
"I'm sorry, I forgot to leave a word, well, after giving you the key, you can open the door yourself when I'm not there, by the way, what to eat? There are also a lot of delicious foods around here, but they are basically fast food, or should I order takeout? ”
Jiang Xiaojiu nodded, "I can eat anything, if I don't bother to move now, I'll cook for you and eat it, and call for takeout." ”
I chose a very famous Chinese restaurant and ordered a meal, and the two of them watched TV in the living room, thinking about whether to call a little assistant to eat too, Mu Yao shook his head and said that maybe people have other arrangements.
Jiang Xiaojiu wanted to ask him where he went, but he still didn't ask, after all, this was Mu Yao's private matter.
*
"Why did you want to go out today? Good mood. "On the expensive sofa, the woman was holding a notebook and watching a movie, curled up to eat snacks, and ran over with a smile when she heard the voice at the door, just barefoot.
The man caught her with a smile.
All these years have passed, she is still a child's temper, she likes to throw herself into his arms barefoot, and if he can't catch it, he will have a good temper for a while.
When Faust reported her trip today, she also said that she was going out this afternoon.
As soon as winter comes, she is always reluctant to go out when she is not in good health, no matter how much he coaxes, he is always willing to watch movies in the house, but she is in a good mood today.
The woman nodded, pulled him over with a smile, and then sat him on the couch and knelt behind him to rub his shoulders.
"Ji Xi, what's wrong?"
She watched the TV for a while before saying, "Ah Lie, I saw Mu Yao—just today—"
Xia Rulie shook his head for a moment, and then smiled and pinched Ji Xi's face behind him and hugged her from behind, she was very sick so she was only about one meter four tall, and she would never grow tall, and he held her in his arms like a child. She is indeed as willful and dependent on him as a child.
Even after so many years, she is still a child-like character, and she is busy with official business, but as long as she is by her side at home for more than a period of time and ignores her, she will lose her temper, drop things, and go back to the room to lock and ignore him.
Xia Rulie loves her childishness very much.
It's also a one-handed pet.
Many people were responsible for the things back then, and he had the deepest responsibility, so Mu Yao was sorry-
She went out today, a little tired and fell asleep in Xia Rulie's arms, and it happened that Fest came to report the content of the meeting and was about to speak when Xia Rulie interrupted, he carried Ji Xi upstairs and put him back in the room.
"Is Mu Yao any different from before?"
Fester thought for a moment.
"Love to laugh, he never smiled before."
Xia Rulie nodded and did his own thing.
Ji Xi could still remember Mu Yao was unexpected by him, but she didn't remember more, and she could remember Mu Yao only because this person was too important to her.
Ji Xi had a nightmare, there was a person named Mu Yao in this dream, but he was drifting away from her, watching his back leave Ji Xi's heart hurt, but he was helpless, he couldn't even make a sound to keep it, and after waking up, he saw Xia Rulie lying beside him.
It was late at night, but she suddenly woke up.
She was often like this, waking up in the middle of the night and never being able to sleep. Xia Rulie slept lightly, and as soon as Ji Xi turned over, she knew that she was awake again, got up and turned on the bedside lamp, and the warm orange light shone on the faces of the two people.
"Do you miss the baby? Do you want to hug him? ”
Ji Xi nodded.
Called the nurse to come over, the nurse was holding a child about three or four years old in her arms, a delicate and beautiful little boy, named Xia Ran, nicknamed the only one.
Ji Xi was not in good health and couldn't take him personally, so he hired a nanny and a wet nurse.
The only one who was woken up in a trance in his sleep saw Mommy pounce directly, just like Ji Xi threw himself into Xia Rulie's arms, it was really a mother and son.
"Mommy, Mommy, you didn't come to see the only one all day yesterday." The only thing is that there are some grievances.
was originally the only age that is now the age of sticking to Daddy's Mommy, Xia Rulie and Ji Xi also love him very much, and will play with him every day, although Ji Xi can't take him personally, but as long as there is no discomfort, she will accompany the only one.
"I'm sorry baby, Mommy wasn't feeling well yesterday, after getting up today, Mommy asked Uncle Beth to buy you a cake to eat, it's your favorite inner seed, Mommy will be with you all day tomorrow." After hugging the only one for a while, the child was really sleepy, and he fell asleep in Ji Xi's arms, Ji Xi was also tired, so he handed the child over to the nanny and went to sleep.
When she can't sleep at night, she will only be better if she holds the only one, otherwise she will have insomnia all night, if it weren't for the fact that the only night would cry a little, Xia Rulie would let the only one come to the room to sleep.
The only thing in Ji Xi's mother is that there is some malnutrition, plus Ji Xi's situation at the time, this child also has some congenital problems, although he is still a smart and beautiful baby, but he will make trouble for a long time when he gets sick.
Since Xia Rulie had a family, he has been worrying about his two little babies every day.
Seeing Ji Xi sleeping, he was also relieved, but he didn't have the heart to sleep, so he put on his clothes and went to the study to deal with some things that he hadn't finished during the day.
Since he knew that Mu Yao was here today, he was a little uneasy, Mu Yao's departure was caused by himself, he was selfish but isn't love selfish, he can do whatever it takes for Ji Xi, and he will not hesitate to hurt Mu Yao. Between brothers and love, he still chose love, Ji Xi is too important to him to lose.
So as soon as Mu Yao left a few years ago, he hurriedly married Ji Xi and rightfully owned Ji Xi.
After that, the only birth was relieved, the changes in the family, the old man likes children, with this child as a buffer, even if the old man doesn't like Ji Xi anymore, he will love the house and Wu, and now if he hasn't seen Ji Xi and Xia Ran for a while, he will chatter.
Ji Xi woke up early the next morning, but it was only six o'clock, and she didn't sleep for a few hours, she packed up and went to the living room for breakfast, and told the chef bass to prepare cheesecake for the only one today, and then watch a movie in the living room.
Today is the weekend, Xia Rulie doesn't have to go to the company, two years ago, the company was on the right track, and the family civil strife stabilized a lot, and the old man was also happy.
He originally wanted to take Ji Xi out to watch a movie today, but she didn't look very good when she came back after she went out yesterday, and he didn't tell her if she couldn't stand it, and was in a daze in the guest room, when suddenly the door was pushed open.
I saw his son running over with his head bared and smiling.
"Daddy Daddy, today you take the only one out with Mommy! It's been a long time since I've hung out with Daddy! ”
Xia Rulie saw his son's expectant expression and couldn't refuse, so he smiled and said okay, picked up the only one and walked to the living room, and said to Ji Xi that she was very happy to take her son to the movies today.
Ji Xi likes to watch movies very much, all kinds of movies, Hollywood blockbusters or Chinese bloody movies and any kind of movie, probably because she is really bored to pass the time.
It's true that she hasn't been out to watch a movie for a while, and she also knows that her health is not good, and Ah Lie always doesn't like to let herself go out, so she is obedient at home.
The chef bought back the only favorite cheesecake, Xiao Bu first ate the cake and then obediently followed the nanny back to change clothes, this family of three on the street is very eye-catching, the beautiful woman and the handsome child are also cute.
But if he could do it all over again, Xia Rulie would rather not go out today.
