Even Gu Niannian was silent on the way back. She was probably a little scared after witnessing the fight between the adults.
She did not want to go back with Gu Nianbin because he looked very scary. There were bruises on his face and bloodstains at the corners of his mouth. The scariest part was the fact that his gaze looked as sharp as a knife, sending chills down her spine. When he carried her out in his arms earlier, Gu Niannian had looked at Lu Haochen pitifully. She wished that he could take her away instead.
But Father Lu just stood there and stared at her mommy silently.
Her mommy, however, looked worriedly at Father Gu. Niannian really couldn't understand the adults!
Du Xiaoxian sat in the backseat with Gu Niannian in her arms. She peeked at the rearview mirror several times. Gu Nianbin was driving in silence. His serious expression revealed his anger!
She thought that Gu Nianbin would drive home right a
Lu Haochen had been awake for long, but he was not willing to get out of bed. He kept staying in bed until the doorbell rang. He knew it was Du Huayue, so he got up and opened the door.Du Huayue saw that Lu Haochen was still in his pajamas and his hair was tousled. He looked as if he had just gotten up from the bed. Du Huayue said, "President Lu, we have to figure out what to do about Xiaoxian!""What can I do?" Lu Haochen said grumpily, "You saw what happened yesterday. She chose to leave with Gu Nianbin."Du Huayue muttered, "I think Niannian doesn't want to go with him.""So what if Niannian doesn't want to go with him?" Lu Haochen said angrily, "Can she influence Xiaoxian?""In the beginning, Xiaoxian didn't let you go to our home because Niannian was making a fuss at home. She called you when she had no other choice. That was how you and Xiaoxian got closer." Du Huayue felt that they could give this a try.
Gu Guangxian and Fang Yaru wanted to hold a grand birthday party for Gu Niannian.The news that the Gu family had a granddaughter had long spread among the upper-class circle of G City. Although Gu Niannian was an illegitimate child in the eyes of outsiders, she was still a precious granddaughter to Gu Guangxian and Fang Yaru. To them, Gu Niannian was a blessing from the heaven and the future of the Gu family. All the gossip was nonsense to them. In their opinion, Gu Nianbin and Du Xiaoxian would eventually get married. It was just a matter of time.Therefore, Gu Guangxian insisted on hosting a grand event. He wanted everyone in G City to know that Gu Niannian was the young lady of the Gu family. His other intention was to make the women who were eyeing Gu Nianbin retreat. He and his wife considered Du Xiaoxian as their daughter-in-law.Although Gu Guangxian retired years ago, he still had his connections. Many other retired big shots sh
Gu Nianbin's hand was hot and dry, which made Du Xiaoxian feel a sense of peace that she had not felt for a long time. She looked up at him. He lowered his head and smiled. He then suddenly retracted his hand and hugged her. Du Xiaoxian was only stunned for a second. Then her heart felt like it was shooting out dazzling and eye-catching fireworks. She hugged his waist tightly and buried her head in his embrace. She almost cried.However, Gu Nianbin soon withdrew from the hug and wrapped his arm back around her waist. "President Lu, why are you so late? I thought you weren't going to come!"Lu Haochen glanced at the hand on Du Xiaoxian's waist and smiled coolly. "How could I not come to Niannian's birthday party? There was quite a lot of traffic on the road."Only then did Du Xiaoxian understand why Gu Nianbin had hugged her out of the blue. It was all for Lu Haochen to see. The blush on her face gradually faded as she forced a smile. "Br
When Xia Xiaowan heard that Du Xiaoxian had returned, she really wanted to go and see her at the Gu family's residence. However, when she recalled what she had done in the past, she felt too embarrassed to see her.Gu Niannian's birthday party was an opportunity for her. She provided the venue with whatever they needed for free, shipping flowers and food by air. She wished that she could provide everything. Gu Guangxian disagreed and said that this was the Gu family's matter, so he could not let her pay for it. He wanted Gu Nianbin to settle the accounts properly. However, she refused to accept any money except for the venue fee. Only then did Gu Nianbin give up.In fact, spending money was the most she could contribute to this banquet. Compared to the suffering that Du Xiaoxian and Gu Nianbin suffered over the past few years, Xia Xiaowan really felt that it would not be too much even if she and Jiang Kaiwei kneeled and apologized before Du Xiaoxian.
The music stopped, the lights came on, and everyone stopped. Some people stopped to wait for the next song while others left the dance floor hand in hand.Du Xiaoxian stood there in a daze, feeling as if she had just woken up from a dream. Gu Nianbin was still smiling, but it was different from before. She was dragged off the dance floor feeling muddled.Gu Nianbin kept his promise and walked her upstairs so she could rest.When Du Xiaoxian left, she turned to look back at Gu Niannian, who was playing happily. Compared to her, her daughter was more suited for such an occasion. She did not want anyone to ask about her, though Gu Nianbin would naturally come up with a good excuse.Gu Nianbin took her to the room upstairs. The Gu family had booked the whole floor for guests who came from far away or those who stayed too late."You can rest here." He swiped the room card. "I'll have someone get you when the time com
Du Xiaoxian called Gu Nianbin, but he did not pick up. Soon, Little Ding's phone rang. Du Xiaoxian heard him say yes a few times before hanging up. She knew that it was Gu Nianbin.Little Ding told her that Gu Nianbin asked her to go to the villa. If there were any issues, she could discuss them with him at noon when he went over.Du Xiaoxian had no choice but to go with Little Ding to the villa.The car spiraled up the mountain. Du Xiaoxian could see Ah Ling standing on the balcony from afar.Ah Ling probably saw the car approaching because she turned and entered the house. When the car drove into the courtyard, Ah Ling stepped out to open the car door. When she saw that Du Xiaoxian was alone in the car, she was a little surprised. "Huh? Didn't Niannian come with you?"As expected, Gu Niannian was not here. The last bit of hope in Du Xiaoxian's heart was shattered. She entered the room without a word.
In the kitchen, a man in a white shirt was cooking in an orderly manner. He had not cooked for a few years, but he was not unskilled in the kitchen. This skill would always remain with him, ready to be utilized at any time.He turned around and glanced at Du Xiaoxian, who was standing by the door and stunned. He snorted, saying, "You slept the entire afternoon. You sure know how to enjoy yourself.""It's you. Why are you here?" Du Xiaoxian asked as she hid the wine behind her back."This is my home. Is it so strange for me to be here?" Gu Nianbin said coolly. Compared to his grim demeanor at noon, he was in a much better mood now.Du Xiaoxian frowned and thought for a moment. She did not hear the sound of the car returning. Did she sleep so soundly? She asked again, "When did you get back?""I wasn't feeling too well, so I didn't go to the company this afternoon."Du Xiaoxian widened her eyes in sho
Du Xiaoxian did not know that Gu Nianbin was unhappy because Du Huayue and Lu Haochen had gone to the Gu Family.It was Lu Haochen's idea to go there. When he heard Du Huayue talk about what had happened to Du Xiaoxian at the Gu Family that day, he felt uneasy and wanted to see it with his own eyes.It was quite normal for them, as Du Xiaoxian's brother and friend respectively, to visit her. They did not expect that Du Xiaoxian would not be there when they arrived at the Gu Family.They both felt a little uneasy, especially Du Huayue. He kept asking about Du Xiaoxian's whereabouts. He wanted to know where Du Xiaoxian was. The two elders of the Gu Family really did not know. They only knew that she was probably with Gu Nianbin.When he heard that Du Xiaoxian and Gu Nianbin were together, Lu Haochen's heart skipped a beat. Everyone else might not have noticed it at the ball last night, but he could see it clearly. Gu Nianbin w
Zhou Ting actually didn't want to come because Raccoon was unreliable every time, but she blew her mind on the phone, so there was no harm in Zhou Ting wanting to meet her.She deliberately came late to test Cheng Wei's patience, but I didn't expect that when she met him, the man didn't say a word about it, and when he heard that she was sorry, he just smiled faintly and said that he had also just arrived shortly. Seeing that he was tolerant and generous and calm, Zhou Ting secretly gave him a compliment in her heart.It wasn't bad, it was a lot better than she thought it would be, and Raccoon was finally reliable for once.Opposite the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a face of righteousness, although sitting, Zhou Ting can also visually estimate his height of at least one seventy-six to one seventy-eight, postgraduate education, returnees, family well-off, parents are civil servants, although he is doing scientific research work, but a wide range of interest
I lost a lot of blood, but I was eventually saved.When I woke up, my parents were sitting on the edge of the bed with tears in their eyes looking at me. I felt so selfish because last night when I thought I was dying, I actually didn't think of them. I don't deserve to be their daughter at all, but God loved me and gave me a chance to be a human being again, and I vowed that I would never let them shed a single tear for me in the future.I shook my mom's hand and said with difficulty, "Yeah, sorry for making you guys, worry."My mom, who was originally full of tears, burst into tears when she heard my words, grasping my hand tightly and sobbing uncontrollably, "Silly little girl, why didn't you tell mom and dad about such a big thing?"I don't know what she's referring to. Is it about last night? Or about me and Mr. Lu?If I had known about Keung's true intentions last night, I wouldn't have gone with them at all, and as for me and Mr. Lu, let's not me
Lu and I looked at each other, both looking confused.Mr. Lu said, "What? You want to back out? Didn't you agree to hand over the favor in one hand and the person in the other?"The guys all laughed and looked at us like we were a couple of idiots.I suddenly understood at once, their action tonight was actually premeditated from early on, I was just a bait, the person they really wanted was Mr. Lu.I was suddenly scared and my voice shook a little, "You, you guys want to kidnap him?""It's still the chick who reacts quickly," Qiang gave me a big finger and looked at Mr. Lu again, "Mr. Lu, do you understand now?""I see," Mr. Lu nodded, "but the money has already been given to you guys ah, even if it's a kidnapping, shouldn't the ransom be paid and the person be released?"Qiang didn't expect Mr. Lu to be so unenlightened, he didn't even bother to explain to him, and lifted his chin at me, "Go ahead."For the first time, I felt that Mr
In the end, I was cornered and had to be honest with Keung, "I broke up with him, I really did, and even if you take me away, he won't come to my rescue."Django didn't believe me, "Call him."My temper came up, took my cell phone out and pulled up Mr. Lu's number and shoved it into his hand, "If you want to call you call yourself, I'd rather help you test a few more times than talk to him."Keung gave me a look and laughed, "So the two of them had a fight!"He didn't force me and had me taken out and stood on the street to call Mr. Lu.The phone rang for a long time without answering, and even though it was expected, I still couldn't help but sigh and say to Keung, "I told him I broke up with him, he won't care about me."Brother Qiang squinted his eyes as if he was talking to himself, "Should we really let him go? Taking me in and locking me up for a few days, this revenge can't go unavenged."The man next to him then said, "Brother Qiang,
I volunteered to be the dinner guest, which was unanimously approved by everyone, except Mr. Lu of course, who has always treated me as a transparent person, and he doesn't comment on anything about me.Mrs. Lu simply gave the cooks a vacation, she took me and Lu Xiaoxian with her into the kitchen, I was the main chef, and the two of them were the understudies. This time I decided to go out on a limb, if I can't take down Mr. Lu, I'll first take down Mr. Lu's family, so that they all become my allies and stand on my side, and maybe there's still a chance.I directed Mrs. Lu and Lu Xiaoxian to do some vegetable preparations, while I myself took care of the main ingredients, meat, fish, shrimp, crab and so on. When I was marinating the beef, I suddenly remembered and asked Lu Xiaoxian, "I heard that Ms. Lu's beef noodle cooking is good, teach me next time and I'll make it for Mr. Lu when I have time."Lu Xiaoxian smiled and said, "My brother said it, I think, he love
I haven't seen him for five days, Mr. Lu looks good, but he didn't even look at me, he just stared at Lu Xiaoxian, "Xiaoxian."My heart trembled and I was about to answer when I heard the words that followed, "Why are you here? I've been looking all over for you." Only then did I realize he wasn't calling me.Lu Xiaoxian said, "What are you looking for me for?""Two days ago you said the root carving in my room was nice, so I asked someone to get a better one and wanted you to see it.""There's no rush on that one, it'll be the same when I get back to see it.""I want you to go through it, and if you don't like it, I'll have someone find it again."Lu Xiaoxian glanced at him angrily, "I just mentioned it casually, you're still taking it seriously, just don't be too troublesome.""Your business is brother's business, how's that for trouble."Lu Xiaoxian went over and pulled Mr. Lu to sit beside me, looked left and right, and said with a
It's a day as sweet as honey! Even when I fall asleep, I wake up smiling.Every day when I open my eyes, what comes into my eyes must be the smiling face of Mr. Lu, no matter how long I sleep, he always has to wait for me to open my eyes before he is willing to get up to go to work, there are a few times really late, to always set a good example of strict discipline for him, it's really a bit unbelievable, but in order for me to break the rule, he broke the rule.When I asked him why he was doing this, he replied to me that don't women want to see their favorite men around as soon as they open their eyes?This is true, because too much like, so suffer, always feel that this is all a dream, afraid of when the dream will wake up.He hired a private tutor to teach me how to drive, and in less than a month, I got my driver's license. Lu was so happy that he immediately took me to a 4S store to pick a car.But those cars I looked around, not a satisfactory,
The battery car drove by, and sure enough, it was Mr. Lu. I was very happy that he had finally come to my rescue.Mr. Lu jumped off the battery car and came over with big strides, "Dad, what did you get her for, she's a little girl who doesn't know anything, if there's something you tell me."Mr. Lu looked at him, "Haochen, your mother is very worried about you, it is not a solution for you to go on like this, after all ... all.""I told you," Mr. Lu interrupted impatiently, "I don't need you to worry about my affairs." He grabbed my hand, "Let's go."I, of course, said nothing and obediently followed him.Lu called after him, "Eat before you go."Mr. Lu ignored him and took me on the battery car, his lips slightly down, I knew he was a little upset, so I didn't dare to say anything.Mrs. Lu greeted her on the other end, "Haochen, eat before you go, it's been a long time since you father and son had a drink together, take advantage of the fa
I showed unprecedented enthusiasm and seriousness in cooking for Mrs. Lu.She came to the kitchen, asked me if I want to help, I hurriedly invited her out, in case the fumes choked her will not be good, although she said that she also cooks at home, I am not quite believe, such as the Lu family such a rich family light cooks are several, where to use her hands, at most, it is the whim of the fun just.I quietly probed and looked, Mrs. Lu was not in the living room, I think she must have gone upstairs. So I secretly sent a message to Mr. Lu, telling him that his mother had come over.In fact, I am still afraid in my heart, because I don't know the real intention of Mrs. Lu, if she has a chilling look on her face or if she is hiding a knife in her smile, I can see it, but she is acting very naturally, as if she is coming to see her future daughter-in-law. But I don't have that kind of luck, I'm just a little canary that Mr. Lu spends his money on, and after a year, o
