"Lucy, do you really think I have a problem with my IQ? So easy to fool you? "Director Lu is really a little annoyed.

"I can understand that you are jealous?" Lucy looked at him in surprise, "I thought you didn't care about me at all. ”

"I'm not stupid enough to marry a woman I don't care about to interfere in my life." Director Lu sighed and looked at Qiuqiu.

"Why did you suddenly mention Lucifer?" Director Lu asked.

Qiuqiu hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to tell the truth or not. He didn't discuss Lucy about participating in the economic reconstruction of the Wu District, he decided on his own.

"Qiuqiu, you've been around for so long, and you haven't told me the reason yet." Lucy looked at her son curiously.

"All this is for the economic construction of the military area." Qiuqiu sighed, "Xianxian said that Professor Lucifer is the most suitable person, and I hope I can find his weaknesses and then convince him to participate in the economic reconstruction project." ”

"Wang Xian?" Director Lu had an impatient expression on his face, "She's really a troublemaker." ”

"So, you also want to participate in the economic construction project of the Wu District?" Lucy looked at Qiuqiu in surprise, then pulled Director Lu's hand and asked, "Old Lu, there shouldn't be any danger for Qiuqiu to go there, right?" ”

"It's true that the martial arts area is a bit chaotic, but the security issues should be arranged by the King." Director Lu said that with what he knew about King, there was no way he would put him in danger.

"Mom, just reveal a little bit, does Professor Lucifer have any weaknesses and preferences?" The ball prays to.

"I really don't know him." Lucy sighed, "I was drinking with him at the bar. ”

Qiuqiu looks at Lucy depressed, he still doesn't know who his father really is, and it is said that Lucy is also a man she met while drinking at a bar. He was suddenly able to understand why Director Lu had been reluctant to be with his mother before. Director Lu is a decent person, and he is very disciplined in everything he does, his rigor and Lucy's casualness do not match at all, and normal people would never imagine that the two of them would actually get married.

Qiuqiu lowered his head in frustration, this feeling of failure was really uncomfortable. He has always been smooth, with a good mind and a strong ability to learn. In addition to taking care of himself, he has to worry about Lucy every day. He felt that his personality was definitely not inherited from Lucy.

Seeing that Qiuqiu was in a low mood, Director Lu said after thinking: "He is very good-looking, especially the more sensational the better." ”

Qiuqiu looked up in surprise and looked at Director Lu, "Uncle Lu, can you be more detailed?" ”

"I heard King mention it." Director Lu recalled, "The reason why he didn't stay in the fog area was because there was a bet with King. The bet was won by King, so he had to stay in the dynasty forever. ”

"What kind of bet is it?" Qiuqiu asked curiously.

"The two of them made a prediction of the economic situation and put forward a condition for each." "King's condition is that if Lucifer loses, he will stay in the dynasty forever and serve the dynasty. Lucifer's condition is that King must marry the black girl. ”

"It seems that the last person to win is still King." The more Qiuqiu listened, the more excited he became, "Does he still have any preferences?" ”

Lucy struggled to reminisce and said, "I used to see him bring a pack of bone-shaped cookies with me on my dates. ”

Qiuqiu had already felt the resentment that Director Lu was exuding, and he knew in his heart that this topic could not continue any longer, so he had to dispel the idea of letting Lucy become a lobbyist.

"That's it, you guys talk slowly, I'll go back to school first." Qiuqiu wanted to flee the scene quickly.

"Son, don't you stay for dinner?" Lucy asked.

Qiuqiu shook his head and said, "I won't disturb you in the two-person world." ”

Qiuqiu didn't say a word, picked up his backpack and ran away. Lucy and Luffy looked at his back as he left in a hurry and smiled at each other.

"It shouldn't matter if this kid is doing things on a rampage, right?" Lucy frowned, a little worried.

"He's an adult, and he needs to get some exercise." Director Lu said earnestly.

He glanced at the woman beside him, she was indeed much more restrained than before marriage, and they all lived together according to his requirements, but did she really feel happy living a life of restraining herself like this?

Director Lu suddenly looked at her seriously and asked, "Do you really think I'm better than Lucifer?" "Maybe Lucifer is more suitable for her, both of them are very flamboyant and confident, and they are also quite outstanding in appearance, and they are the existence of male talents and female appearances in the eyes of everyone.

"In my eyes, you are the best." Lucy smiled at him.

Director Lu was stunned and remembered the words "Xi Shi in the eyes of a lover".

Qiuqiu, who escaped from the scene of the "disaster", dialed Hu Xin's phone as soon as he went out.

At this time, Hu Xin had just finished his work and returned to the bedroom. Before I could put down my phone, I saw the caller ID.

He pressed the answer button and brought the phone to his ear.

"Mission accomplished?"

"It's done." Qiuqiu said weakly.

"Sort of?" Hu Xin asked with some surprise, "Are you in trouble?" ”

"Hey, I was just halfway through asking when Uncle Lu came back. That scene is no longer suitable for continuing to talk about ex-boyfriends. Qiuqiu sighed, "Moreover, my mother is still as unreliable as ever, and she doesn't know her ex-boyfriend at all." It's no wonder that the two have only been dating for two months. ”

Hu Xin had a smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "Your mother is much more capable than you imagined." It's just that it's not handled reliably on emotional issues. ”

"You're still talking to her?" Qiuqiu was surprised.

"We humans came to the dynasty, and there were many things that Sister Lucy helped deal with." Hu Xin said, "I have a deep understanding of her ability. ”

"She's really good, she can maneuver in many forces, and she can maintain such a free and easy personality." Hu Xin admired Lucy from the bottom of his heart, so he promised Lucy to get along with Qiuqiu in the future and support each other.

Qiuqiu suddenly fell silent on the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong?" Hu Xin heard that there was no sound and asked casually.

"It's okay, I'm wondering if the news I got today is useless, and whether it will be useless." Qiuqiu abruptly changed the subject. His mother, he knew best. He knew what she was capable of, and he knew her weaknesses. It's really good that she can marry her beloved as she wishes. Even if in the future, he can only live alone, he has no regrets. He wants his mother to be happy, even if she doesn't have him in her happy life.

"Whether it's useful or not, we'll find out when we try it. I've already submitted the application for the club. The result of the approval should come down tomorrow. Hu Xin said, "If the approval is passed, you still need to follow up on the follow-up of the club." ”

"No problem, then let's meet tomorrow and discuss it." Qiuqiu said.

After the dinner, Burnt and King were already on their way home.

"Wait, can you park the car first?" Xianxian looked at the watch shop outside the window, but he didn't expect it to be still open at this time. She had planned to come to pick up her pocket watch this afternoon, but the appearance of King suddenly disrupted her plans.

"Stop." King said to the center display in front of him.

The vehicle immediately followed the instructions and slowed down and pulled over. After the car was completely parked, King and Xianxian got out of the car and walked into the watch shop together.

"You want to buy a clock?" King looked at Burnt suspiciously, Locky had been here for a few months, and he hadn't prepared any gifts for Burnt himself.

Xianxian smiled and said: "I didn't come to buy a clock, I sent my pocket watch here for repair, and after nearly a month, the store finally notified me to come and pick up the goods." ”

King thoughtfully followed behind him, and the two of them walked over to the staff at the store.

"Hello, this young lady, are you here to pick up the pocket watch?" The staff asked politely.

"How do you know?" Xianxian looked at the staff with some surprise.

"We were supposed to close at 9 o'clock, but we contacted you before to come and pick up the goods today, so we have been waiting for you." The staff said with a smile on their faces.

"Your service is really attentive. I'm sorry, I suddenly have something on my side, I should have called you in advance, and I have to wait so late. Xian Xian's face was full of apologies, she didn't expect them to be so trustworthy and would be waiting for customers all the time.

"It's okay, the customer is God. This is what we should do. The staff smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll go get your pocket watch." ”

The staff left the counter and walked towards the back room. After a while, she pulled out a delicate box and walked over to them.

"Miss, check it out." The staff said with a smile.

Xianxian took the box and was very surprised the moment she opened it, "How did it become new?" ”

"Yes, we've re-sanded your shell, inside and out. The current watch will not be damaged by any magnetic field. If you look at it first, this is the repair bill. "The staff listed the repair content and the price and printed it out.

The moment she saw the sky-high bill, she was stunned. "Fifty thousand?" She didn't expect that it would cost her 50,000 yuan to repair a watch, and when her parents bought this watch, it cost 20,000 yuan. She only has 2,000 yuan left on hand now.

Without saying a word, King took out the card and handed it to the clerk.

At this moment, I am really very happy. If King hadn't taken her away, it would have been a shame for her to come here alone in the afternoon to pick up her watch. She never imagined that her watch would be refurbished, and the key charges would be so high.

"Do you want to wear it as is, or do you pack it for you?" The clerk looked at the burner.

"Thank you, no packaging." Xianxian took out the pocket watch from the box, opened it and looked at the group photo inside. For her, it doesn't matter if the watch moves around or not, what matters is what it means.

King glanced at the pocket watch in his hand and seemed to be a little impressed.

"This is ......"

"King, I want to give it to you." Xianxian said with a smile. She wanted to fix the watch at first, just to give it away.

"The cost of repairs, I'll pay you back when I have the money." Xian Xian added.

King looked at the pocket watch in her hand with a complicated look, "Are you sure you want to give it to me?" Isn't this a birthday present from your parents? You've always cherished it. ”

Xian Xian looked at him seriously, "It is precisely because I cherish it that I want to give it to you." ”

"You are the most important person to me in this world. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be here today. Xianxian laughed helplessly, "It's you who have been helping me and tolerating my willfulness." Thank you, King. I'm really lucky to meet you on this plane 100 years from now. ”

He handed the watch to King and said, "Open it and take a look." ”

King pressed the switch and turned on his pocket watch. A warm group photo caught his eye. The little girl in the photo had a happy smile on her face, and the Su Mu beside her was also staring at the girl intently, grinning.

Familiar memories flooded over him, and King grimaced. It was probably the best years of his life, and he and his girls were so carefree.

"Don't you like this gift?" Xian Xian noticed that his expression was slightly sad.

King shook his head and gripped the watch tightly, "Thank you, Xiaoxian. I'll cherish it. ”

Xianxian smiled slightly, "It's good that you don't dislike this as an old object." ”

"Miss, this object of yours can be regarded as an antique level now, and after the renovation, the value has doubled." The clerk said with a smile, "The maintenance cost of 50,000 yuan is really worth it." ”

"If you want to change hands, I can contact you at any time." The clerk continued.

"I've already given it away." "And I'm not going to sell it, this pocket watch bears the mark of many years." ”

"By the way, I would like to thank your watch repairer for not erasing the original imprint." She pointed to the tooth marks on her pocket watch.

"We're worried you're not satisfied. Originally, this place could have been repaired. But the repairer did not agree to restore it to its original state, saying that this pocket watch was very old, and every mark on it was important to the owner. It would be better to keep it and give it a sense of timelessness. The clerk said with a smile.

"Your master is really amazing." She said gratefully, "Please help me convey my gratitude." ”

"If you can be satisfied with our service, I will convey it on your behalf." The clerk bent down and said respectfully.

"Xiaoxian, let's go home." King took Burn's hand, and the two of them left the watch shop together.

"She's King's sister?" Out of the back room came an old hunchbacked old man.

"If you're interested in her, you should have come out to meet her just now." The clerk looked at the old man in bewilderment.

"This pocket watch is exactly the same as the gift I once gave to my daughter, except for the picture inside, which I have never seen before." The old man frowned and muttered to himself, "She is much younger than Xian'er, she must not be Xian'er." ”

"Boss, she must have some kind of relationship with your daughter, right? Could it be that the dog in the photo is King from 100 years ago? The clerk seemed to understand something, "Then she must not be King's sister, is her real identity the owner that King has been looking for?" ”

The old man thought thoughtfully, "In this way, the owner King has been looking for is this person who looks very similar to Xian'er." That's why King mistook her. King has been looking for so many years, but he has not been able to find Xian'er, and now that this woman suddenly appears, will King give up looking for Xian'er? If King's power doesn't intervene, how can I find my daughter as quickly as possible? ”

"Boss, we might be able to ask that young lady for help." The clerk suggested.
