Chapter 182: I'll be distressed if you're like this
According to the customs of Su Xiao's boyfriend's hometown, the burial time was set three days after Yin and Yang.
In the middle of this, it is necessary to set up a tent to guard the spirit, Lu Haowen arranged some people to help, Fu Chengxiu couldn't put his mind at ease after sending Su Xiao back on the first day, so he simply made do with the sofa in the living room of Su Xiao's rented small house for one night, and from the next day, Lu Niansheng asked for leave and stayed with Su Xiao.
Su Xiao's state has not been very good, Lu Niansheng didn't dare to leave at night, just stayed to accompany Su Xiao, Su Xiao's bed is not big, the two of them slept on the same bed as before, Lu Niansheng opened his eyes in a fog at six o'clock in the morning, and found that the side was empty, a spirit sat up, quickly turned over and got out of bed to find Su Xiao.
In the end, she found Su Xiao on the balcony, her heart was beating very fast, she was still afraid, her steps were gentle, and her voice was very soft, "Su Xiao...... Why don't you sleep? ”
Su Xiao originally looked out the window, but when she heard the sound, she slowly turned around, looked at Lu Niansheng, and asked her, "Where is the funeral?" ”
Lu Niansheng was stunned for a moment, "Over there at his house." ”
Su Xiao's expression had calmed down a lot, but his voice was still a little hoarse, "Then I'll go over and take a look." ”
Lu Niansheng hesitated, "Big brother and President Lu will help, in fact, it doesn't matter if you don't go over......"
"It's okay," Su Xiaowei smiled, "I'll go over in a while." ”
Lu Niansheng didn't insist anymore, she washed up hastily and made a simple breakfast, Su Xiao didn't eat for a day the first day, no matter how much she persuaded her, she worked hard to eat today.
It could be seen that Su Xiao's appetite was still not good, but he still insisted on drinking porridge and eating vegetables, Lu Niansheng glanced at the opposite side of the table, panicked uncomfortably, and looked away.
She has also lost a very important person, that child has not had time to occupy a little time in her life, not to mention that Su Xiao has lost someone who has been there for eight years, and she can't imagine the despair.
Su Xiao's boyfriend is a foreigner, there are not too many people to do funerals here, good relatives came, and many did not come at all, fortunately, Fu Chengxiu and Lu Haowen operated, the venue was not deserted, the summer was scorching, Su Xiao's boyfriend's body was placed in the crystal coffin, Su Xiao was still a little stunned, and he didn't shed tears, so he knelt quietly in front of the spiritual seat.
No matter how Fu Chengxiu and Lu Niansheng persuaded them, they just refused to get up.
Lu Haowen was busy at the bank during the day, and came over at night, and Lu Niansheng had been kneeling with Su Xiao for most of the day at that time.
The deceased is the biggest, Lu Haowen went in and glanced at Lu Niansheng, frowned, but still knelt down to burn the paper first, kowtowed according to the custom after burning, and then got up and called Niansheng softly.
Lu Niansheng understood, and wanted to get up with his hands on the ground, but because he knelt for too long, his legs were so weak that his body fell down involuntarily.
Lu Haowen took two steps and bent over, stretched out his hand to help her, grabbed her arm and brought the person up.
Lu Niansheng's legs were still numb, he frowned and bent over to rub it, and was slowly walked out by Lu Haowen.
Fu Chengxiu was smoking at the entrance of the mourning hall, and when he looked back, he saw this scene, Lu Haowen twisted his eyebrows and looked at Lu Niansheng, the concern and gentleness in his eyes were impressive, and he smiled unconsciously.
Lu Niansheng has been helped out by Lu Haowen, and he didn't stop until he left the mourning hall for a distance, Lu Niansheng couldn't wait to bend over and rub his knees, and looked up at Lu Haowen, "Brother Lu, why are you here again?" Don't you have to accompany Lu Jing? ”
"I told Lu Jing about the situation on your side, and he said that he could do his homework by himself today, and he also called me over."
Lu Niansheng was stunned for a moment.
Lu Haowen suddenly knelt down in front of her, and his hand touched her knee, "How long have you and Su Xiao been kneeling?" ”
She reflexively shrunk, Lu Haowen's eyebrows frowned, and her voice lowered, "Su Xiao has been kneeling for a day, I'm ...... I couldn't help but rest on my knees at noon. ”
Although there are mats in the mourning hall, it is still a little unbearable to kneel for a few hours at once, and Lu Haowen's gaze is fixed on her knees.
Under the knee-length skirt, two bruises loomed on her knees.
His face was a little ugly, "You can't do this, there is still a day to keep the spirit, and Su Xiao's body can't bear it if it continues, you ......"
"She didn't listen to me," Lu Niansheng was a little helpless, "My eldest brother and I have persuaded her." ”
"Then do you need to kneel?" He looked up at her.
She was silent for a few seconds, "Su Xiao is about the same as my family, I can't help anymore......"
Lu Haowen sighed, raised his hand and quickly pressed her knee before she could react.
With a little strength under his hands, Lu Niansheng was suddenly startled, and gasped in pain.
He gave her a blank look, "You deserve it." ”
She suddenly felt a little aggrieved, "Of course you don't understand, Su Xiao's matter is my business." ”
His hand turned to gently rub the crooked joints of her legs, and his rough fingertips conveyed a little warmth, he said: "I can't care about other people, Su Xiao doesn't know me, and he won't listen to me, I understand your righteousness, but I think you will feel distressed like this." ”
She was stunned, biting her lip and lowering her head.
He was still half-kneeling, rubbing his hands gently, and she suddenly felt a little hot in the place he had touched.
"Are you still staying with Su Xiao tonight?" He didn't look up.
At the mention of this, her expression was a little entangled, "Su Xiao doesn't plan to go back tonight, she plans to keep a vigil all night." ”
"What about you?"
"Of course I can only stay with her."
He shifted his hand to her other leg and continued to rub it, "You haven't been to work for a few days, have you?" ”
She let out an "um".
"The vigil will be tiring." He said.
"No way."
He looked up again, "Isn't your eldest brother here?" ”
She tugged at the corners of her mouth, "That's different, Su Xiao needs people around him at this time, and I can't leave because I'm afraid of hard work." ”
His lips moved, as if he wanted to speak, but he quickly dismissed the thought.
She didn't have many friends, and she took her friends very seriously, and he felt that he shouldn't say too much from his own standpoint, so he just rubbed it for a while and got up and made a decision: "Then I'll stay tonight." ”
"Huh?"
Lu Niansheng's expression was a little dumbfounded, and he quickly said, "What are you doing staying, what should Lu Jing do?" ”
He took out his phone, "I'll ask my friend to come over tonight to help take care of Lu Jing." ”
"Don't ......" Lu Niansheng stopped, "You don't need to be here, you have also seen the situation here, if you don't have a good rest, you go back, I'll call you if you need help." ”
There were only a few simple beds in the house behind the mourning hall, the kind that creaked and rattled when lying down, and she had already caused him a lot of trouble, and she really didn't want him to stay here and suffer this crime.
Lu Haowen blocked her hand, "Don't make trouble, you and Su Xiao are not reassuring, I can be considered to have a response here, you still have to find a way to let Su Xiao get up first, so can her body stand it when she kneels?" ”
She was a little anxious, "You really don't have to ......"
"You're still treating me like an outsider?" He stopped dialing and looked at her.
She paused, frowning, speechless.
Neither affirmation nor denial seems appropriate.
She admitted that, as He Huan said, she was a little shaken in her heart, and Lu Haowen had something in her body that attracted her, and occasionally made her feel very warm.
But no one knows that there is an invisible barrier in her heart, and it is difficult for her to accept another person, let alone treat Lu Haowen as her own in such a short period of time.
Lu Haowen looked at her quietly, suddenly smiled, and put the phone back, "Understood, I'll go." ”
She was stunned for a moment, and when she saw that he was about to turn around, she raised her hand and quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes, "Are you angry?" ”
He shook his head, "No, I'm just a little disappointed. ”
Immediately laughed again, "But I promised myself that I would not urge you to force you, and the promise I made myself would be insisted on kneeling, if you feel embarrassed, I will just go." ”
Although he said that he was chasing her, he always thought that he was in place, but occasionally he was still anxious.
After all, this kind of thing is different from work, at first he thought he had a plan, but now the plan is still disrupted little by little, including his own rhythm.
Lu Niansheng let go of the corner of his clothes, "It will be very hard to stay here, and with the eldest brother here, you don't need so many people, you should accompany Lu Jing." ”
"Well," he replied neatly, "listen to you." ”
She breathed a sigh of relief and was also a little moved, and heard him say again: "I'm so obedient, no reward? ”
She was dumbfounded, seeing that he actually looked serious, she couldn't laugh or cry, "What reward do you want?" ”
His gaze fell on her lips, naked, naked, naked.
Her face changed slightly, and she was suddenly afraid, afraid that he would make some messy request.
Fortunately, he glanced back at the mourning hall, collected his thoughts, and said, "There is a dinner party on Sunday, I need a female companion, you can accompany me to it." ”
She was not very happy, and wrinkled her eyebrows and asked, "What kind of dinner?" ”
"It's the birthday of the daughter of the Yue family who just came back from abroad," he explained, "I actually don't know each other, just sell her parents a face, the Yue family is also doing financial credit, probably because this daughter has just come back from abroad, pay more attention to this dinner, there will be a lot of people from other banks to go, this is an opportunity for you, you should go to meet more people, it will be very helpful for Ruitong in the future." ”
After a pause, he looked at her, "You're still not happy?" ”
She had already changed her expression, "Happy, thank you, Brother Lu." ”
After all, Ruitong is still developing, and many businesses need the support of large and small banks, and she doesn't care about herself, but now she is in the Ruitong business department, and she has to seek business for Ruitong.
Lu Haowen rubbed her hair lightly and smiled, "It's so fast to change your face." ”
The next day, Su Xiao's boyfriend was buried, Lu Niansheng and Fu Chengxiu were duty-bound, and Lu Haowen also made time.
It was a gloomy weather, the convoy was heading towards the cemetery in the western suburbs, Lu Niansheng sat in Lu Haowen's car, in the co-pilot's position, as she got closer and closer to the cemetery, her hand slowly tightened her seat belt.
Tombstones could be seen outside the car window, and she suddenly had severe heart palpitations.
In her mind was the wordless tablet, those shadows could not be dispersed, her heart was like a large heavy stone, it was so blocked that her breathing and blood circulation did not seem to be smooth.
Lu Haowen parked the car, turned around and saw that her face was pale, and he was silent for a moment and grabbed her hand.
