Chapter 257: Returning Home and Meeting a Mysterious Man
After two months of seclusion, Fang Ruoning really couldn't hold back, and wanted to leave every day.
But Huo Lingxiao hasn't had enough of this kind of carefree life.
Thinking that staying in one place for a long time would inevitably be tired, he spent a few days doing a round-the-world travel strategy himself, planning to go out for a walk around the family of three.
After asking Fang Yunxuan's opinion, the little guy thought about it and said with great interest: "Dad, I want to see the volcano!" ”
Two days ago, the little guy inadvertently flipped through a geography magazine in the living room, which Fang Ruoning used to pass the time in his spare time, he saw the introduction of the page of the volcano, and pestered his mother to explain it to him.
Since he learned to walk, Fang Ruoning would take him out to travel two or three times a year, he had seen many landscapes, and he had been to many places, but he had never seen a volcano.
After listening to his mother's explanation, he suddenly became obsessed with volcanoes.
Huo Lingxiao raised his eyebrows and thought for a while, "Volcano...... Okay, then our first stop is to see the volcano first. ”
"Wife, your son wants to see the volcano, let's go to Vanuatu!" Fang Ruoning walked into the living room, the man raised his eyes to look at her, and asked.
"Yes, you can arrange it." Compared with the excited father and son, Mrs. Huo's reaction seemed to be a little flat.
But this did not affect Mr. Huo's desire to travel the world in the slightest.
After living for more than thirty years, he feels that he is really alive now, he used to work like the walking dead, like a machine, like a puppet, and finally can live for himself, he has to cherish it.
In the evening, after the couple fell asleep, Mr. Huo turned over and hugged his wife as always, and the small kiss fell on the side of her face and neck, and asked with a low smile, "Why are you unhappy?" Xuan Xuan knew that he was going to see the volcano and was very excited. ”
Fang Ruoning didn't want to deal with him, so he had to pretend to be drowsy, and said inarticulately: "I'm not unhappy, I'm just a little sleepy, let's sleep......"
"There's still nothing to do, what ...... sleep" The man's voice became deeper and deeper, and the kiss around her neck slowly rose again, blocking her breathing.
Fang Ruoning frowned impatiently and stretched out his hand to push him, "Huo Lingxiao, can't you stop for another day?" ”
"Isn't this the last night? Gotta do something to commemorate ......."
"......" This man always has an excuse to find enough reasons for his murderous and evil deeds.
In a state of confusion, the man suddenly asked with great interest, "Do you know why I want to travel the world?" ”
Mrs. Huo only hoped to go to bed early, but she was not interested and did not answer at all.
"Because ......" the voice fell to his ears again, smiling and ambiguous, "I want to try to spoil you all over the world and love you......"
This sentence is understood literally, in fact, there is no problem, but Mrs. Huo, who already knows how evil Mr. Huo is, realized the deep meaning from the words after a few seconds.
The apricot eyes were lazily half-open and half-closed, and the slightly exposed light was like a star that appeared and disappeared from time to time on the horizon, and the man's evil smiling eyes pursed his lips and glared at him with shame and annoyance.
This demon is about to reach the pinnacle!
More than that! Actually set up such a shameless grand ambition!
Vanuatu, which the book says, is a small island of abundance, a string of pearls left by God, and Mount Isour, known as the closest active volcano in the world, is praised as a flower of God's fire.
The family of three traveled halfway around the world, overnight in Fiji, and finally arrived at this tropical island in the South Pacific Ocean.
Fang Ruoning is very pleased that his son's resistance is not bad, and he can adapt to them wherever he goes, which also reduces a lot of trouble for their journey.
And Huo Lingxiao, although he is cold and crazy in front of outsiders, in front of his wife and son, he is an impeccable good husband and father. Along the way, she was responsible for sleeping, occasionally waking up and looking at the sea of clouds outside the window, her mind was completely empty and in a daze. And the father and son are endlessly energetic, from astronomy and geography to humanities and philosophy, from poetry and poetry to life insights, Fang Ruoning sometimes can't help but laugh when he listens to it, but at the same time he feels slightly lost.
It can be seen that Huo Lingxiao is not only a business elite, but also an encyclopedia, his son's unrestrained thoughts, he can answer whatever he asks, which makes her secretly admire him at the same time, but also makes her son worship him more and more.
The child she gave birth to at the risk of her life, the child who was raised with hard work, and the child who used to depend on each other for her life, has now completely become Mr. Huo's number one fan brother, and the father and son are more like friends.
Hey, this man is really a killing of men, women and children.
When they arrived in Vanuatu, God favored it, there was neither rain nor lightning and thunder, and after a day of rest in the hotel to refresh themselves, the family set off to see the volcano.
On Huo Lingxiao's private island, all the living facilities are very modern, fashionable and modern, but coming to this place, looking at the pure natural outdoor scenery and the original taste of the indigenous people, Fang Ruoning feels that they have returned to the primitive era all of a sudden.
Originally, she still wanted to return to China and work, but after a change of environment, her mentality changed again, and she was glad that she could go out for a walk and see the colorful world in her life.
Mount Isur has erupted for hundreds of years, but magma is not particularly terrifying and can destroy everything, they are tightly wrapped from head to toe, and they climbed to the crater on foot, watching Mother Earth swallow the flames one by one with great reverence and awe for nature.
The scarlet crater resembles a huge steel-making furnace, and the magma that erupts from it from time to time is like a hot molten liquid, and the volcano makes a thunderous sound from time to time, and a thick layer of smoke hangs over it.
Fang Ruoning stood by the railing, looking at the fiery red mountain pass in front of her in a daze, whenever the thunderous sound came, she couldn't help but stand on end with cold hairs all over her body, her legs trembled, and she always felt that this was like the earth was roaring, and it might explode at any time.
With the awe of the earth and nature in her heart, she wanted to leave, but the magnificent scene in front of her made her a little reluctant to leave.
"What's wrong?" Huo Lingxiao told his son not to run around, he could only stand by the railing and watch, and when he turned around, he saw the woman in a daze as if she was wandering out of the world, and frowned and asked.
The smell of sulfur on the tip of her nose was a little choking, she came back to her senses, did not look at the man, and muttered thoughtfully: "You said that if a person falls, will it disappear in an instant?" ”
Huo Lingxiao's face changed in fright with an inexplicable sentence on his back, and he hurriedly grabbed her hand, "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”
Fang Ruoning was pulled aside, looked back at him, and saw that his face was terrifyingly tense, and hurriedly smiled again: "I'm just emotional, don't think about it, I won't jump." My beautiful life has just begun, how can I not think about it? ”
Huo Lingxiao still seemed to be suspicious, staring at her, his eyes motionless.
The woman simply pulled him closer, ignoring the surrounding and tourists from all over the world, leaned her head intimately on his arm, and continued to joke: "Don't worry, even if I want to jump, I will pull you along." There is a saying about what a declaration of love says? Life and death are also a kind of ultimate romance, if we are buried together in the arms of Mother Earth, is it particularly romantic? ”
Huo Lingxiao believed that she was indeed talking about it at this time, and only then did he finally relax, glanced at her and said, "I don't want to die so miserably." ”
Thousands of rivers and mountains are coming, and they are rushing towards this world-famous active volcano, so naturally they have to see enough before leaving.
In the evening, the tourists descended the mountain one after another, and each of them fell with volcanic ash, looking like refugees fleeing.
Fang Yunxuan was very excited, he felt that the natural world was so magical, forgive him for his lack of vocabulary and couldn't find more adjectives, so he could only keep saying that it was cool and cool, he liked it very much!
The road down the mountain was not easy to walk, Huo Lingxiao hugged him on the ground, and the father and son were full of interest.
"Where else do you want to go next?"
"I want to go to the North Pole."
"Why? It's cold there. ”
"You can see the Northern Lights! It must be as cool as a volcanic eruption! ”
Fang Ruoning was surprised, "How do you still know about Aurora?" ”
In just two months, her son's knowledge reserve has already made her jaw-dropping.
Mr. Huo squinted at his wife, who was covered in embarrassment and ashes, and snorted coldly: "You see that you don't care about our father and son at all, and you don't even know what we do every day and what we like." ”
"......" Fang Ruoning was speechless, she ate and drank every day on the island, lying in the sun, the father and son often ran without seeing anyone, how did she know what they were doing.
"Mom, after watching the aurora, let's go to the African savannah to see lions, elephants, rhinos, zebras!"
"Oh! We're going to see kangaroos in Australia! ”
"I'm also going to go camping in the primeval forest!"
Fang Ruoning didn't want to dampen his son's enthusiasm, but he really didn't want to follow them, so he responded lightly: "Okay, you go with your father, and your mother will go home to earn money, okay?" ”
It's not that she doesn't want to travel around the world, she just thinks that there are too many beautiful places in the world, and she doesn't need to be in a hurry, she can plan well in the future, go out once or twice a year, let life and distance complement each other, combine work and rest, how good.
However, although dreams are good, reality is always full of surprises.
A few days later, just as they were packing their bags and preparing to leave Vanuatu for Finland, Huo Lingxiao received a call from China.
Fang Ruoning was trying to find a way to stuff all the strange gadgets that his son bought locally into his suitcase, when Huo Lingxiao walked over with a solemn face while holding his mobile phone.
"I can't go to Finland."
He spoke, in a simple tone, but heavy and breathless.
Fang Ruoning was stunned, put down his knee pressing on the box, and turned to look at him, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”
"The old man suddenly had a stroke and was still lying in the hospital ICU, and the doctor issued a critical illness notice."
With a "buzz" in his head, Fang Ruoning's face changed, he paused and walked over to hold his hand, and said in a low voice: "Then let's hurry up and book tickets to return to China." ”
"That's all there is to it."
Huo Lingxiao responded like this, but in his heart, there was an indescribable complex emotion.
Fang Yunxuan is very sensible, he heard that his grandfather was seriously ill and his father was going back to visit, he didn't have any emotions and obediently followed the adults back to China.
On the plane, Huo Lingxiao kept his face heavy and didn't talk much.
Fang Ruoning was hindered by the child's side at first, and some topics were difficult to speak, but then when Xuan Xuan fell asleep, she turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?" Still worried about the elderly? Now that medical care is developed, and the elderly are heroes with outstanding achievements, not to mention that the family will do their best, the national level should also care, right? Will definitely send the best medical team to treat him. ”
Huo Lingxiao pursed his lips slightly, Shen Zhu's face smiled, and he raised his arm to hug her in his arms, "I know, I'm worried about more than this. ”
"And what else?"
Huo Lingxiao thought about it, what else? He couldn't tell for a while.
I feel uneasy, I always feel that something bad will happen when I go back this time, I am worried that the old man will make any embarrassing requests to him by taking advantage of his serious illness, and I am worried that the burden of the company will fall back on my shoulders after I go back, what are you worried about? He couldn't figure it out either.
However, no matter how worried you are, you still have to face it.
After more than two months of absence, they returned to Haicheng, and after getting off the plane, Fang Ruoning took Xuan Xuan to the bathroom first, and Huo Lingxiao went to pick up the checked luggage.
At the beginning of April, Haicheng is already in full bloom in spring, and through the glass windows, you can see the delicate green of the trees outside.
Fang Yunxuan still used to go to the men's toilet by himself independently, while Fang Ruoning waited in line in the women's bathroom with the coat in his arms.
Thinking of the scene of coming back from Switzerland during the Chinese New Year and fainting in the bathroom as soon as she got off the plane, she only felt like a world away.
In just over two months, she and Huo Lingxiao have become husband and wife, and after walking before the ghost gate is closed, they are now even more fat, plump and rich.
Thinking like this, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
After waiting for a long time, when she finally arrived, she saw a cubicle open, and she immediately stepped forward.
The woman who came out was a very tall foreign beauty, with deep facial features, exquisite makeup, and good temperament, but Fang Ruoning walked in and found that the other party had a problem with one leg and foot, and he was walking with a little lameness.
Sensing this, she slowed down again and politely stepped out of the way.
The other party nodded politely to her.
Fang Ruoning also smiled slightly.
It was a very normal scene, Fang Ruoning didn't think much about it, but the blonde and blue-eyed foreign woman looked at her, and suddenly her face became very strange and surprised.
Fang Ruoning was stunned for a moment, she didn't know what was going on, but thinking that her son was still waiting for her outside, she must have been waiting for a while, so she had to nod and smile with the other party again, and hurriedly entered the cubicle.
The foreign woman frowned when she saw that the door had been closed, and with a look of surprise on her face, she turned around and went out.
Outside the bathroom, Fang Yunxuan stood there obediently, waiting for his mother to come out.
Next to him, a young man dressed in British style was standing, also waiting for someone.
The blonde woman walked out and saw the man smile, "Geller! Let's go! She walked eagerly, but there was water on the floor, and her right leg was slightly lame, and when she was about to walk in front of the man, her feet suddenly slipped.
