Chapter 195 Is Lin Xu really our mother?
"I forgot, the portfolio was not on the desk, I put it in the bookcase."
A low voice brought Ji Yuqiao Piaoxuan's thoughts back.
Ji Tingyang walked in and took out a portfolio from the bookcase on the wall.
Ji Yuqiao came to his senses and hurriedly called to Ji Tingyang, "Brother, who is the person in this photo?"
Ji Tingyang was stunned when he saw the photo in her hand, "...it's a family portrait of our family."
"Is the woman in this photo our mother? She looks similar to Lin Xu. Also This man, He Xie..."
"Who does he look like?" Ji Tingyang's cheeks suddenly turned cold, "That man doesn't look like our father."
The words in Ji Yuqiao's throat were still there. Before he finished speaking, Ji Tingyang was so scared that he swallowed it back in his stomach.
"If you are nearsighted, get glasses and don't talk nonsense." Ji Tingyang left the study with a stinky face.
Ji Yuqiao patted her trembling heart.
It's all right, why is brother so angry?
They are obviously similar.
It is better for him to get a pair of glasses himself.
Ji Yuqiao looked at the photo for a long time before putting it back in the drawer.
When she returned to the living room, she was still thinking about the photo.
Seeing the housekeeper on the side, Ji Yuqiao's heart moved, and then asked: "Uncle housekeeper, do you know when Lin Xu came to our house?"
The housekeeper thought for a moment, "It seems like half a year ago..."
"How did she get here?" Ji Yuqiao asked.
“Hey, I’m not sure, it seems to have appeared suddenly.”
"Then have you seen her children?"
"Children? Does Miss Lin have any children? I haven't heard her mention it."
"Ah, so... then Maybe I remembered it wrong..." Ji Yuqiao laughed a few times.
Ji Zeqiu and Lin Xu walked outside for a long time, and it was not until after dark that they came back with large and small bags.
Ji Tingyang hurriedly came over and took the things from Lin Xu's hand, "Why did you buy so many things?"
"I saw many new styles of clothes in the store, and they are all bought for you." Lin Xu said.
Ji Tingyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took out a shirt from the bag, with a hint of joy in his expression, "Is this for me?"
Ji Zeqiu snatched the shirt away. He came back and said, "This was bought for me!"
Ji Tingyang looked at the dozen bags on the ground, as if thinking about which one was his.
Ji Zeqiu took out a small box from a bag, "Don't look at it, only these cufflinks are yours, the others were bought for me."
He glanced at Ji Tingyang, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
It seems to be saying, my mother bought me so many things, but she only gave you this one.
My mother’s favorite person is indeed me.
The veins on Ji Tingyang's forehead popped out, and his face looked extremely ugly.
Lin Xu glared at Ji Zeqiu, and quickly picked up a few bags and handed them to Ji Tingyang, "Don't listen to your brother's nonsense, these are all yours. There are also some from Lan Yue, bought for everyone. As much.”
Ji Tingyang's expression improved a bit, but the expression on his face was still a little aggrieved.
Lin Xu touched his head comfortingly.
This time it was Ji Tingyang's turn to quietly cast a provocative look at Ji Zeqiu.
Ji Zeqiu gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.
If it were in the past, Ji Yuqiao would definitely be gloating about his misfortune.
But now she was a little confused.
Why do the eldest brother and the second brother like Lin Xu so much?
It’s not that she has never met other relatives in the family, but her eldest brother and second brother have always hated those relatives and never allowed her to have too much contact with them.
But why do you like Lin Xu who just appeared?
Perhaps because she paid attention to this matter, she noticed many things that she had not noticed before. For example, Lin Xu never mentioned her children.
But from what she said before, we can feel that she obviously loves her children very much, but she has never been seen calling her children.
For another example, the eldest brother and the second brother always rely on Lin Xu.
When the eldest brother is in a bad mood, he always likes to lean on Lin Xu's shoulder.
The second brother also obviously hates vegetables. In the past, he was unwilling to eat vegetables no matter how much she and the eldest brother tried to persuade him. But with Lin Xu’s look, he ate them obediently.
There were too many things on his mind. Ji Yuqiao lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
At this time.
A hand stretched out, hugged her, and gently stroked her back with the palm of her hand.
“Can’t sleep?” Lin Xu’s voice was soft and subtle, blowing slowly over her anxious chest like a breeze.
Ji Yuqiao's mood gradually calmed down, "Yeah."
"Shall I tell you a bedtime story?"
"I'm already this old..." Ji Yuqiao muttered, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his dark face.
“No matter how old you are, you can still listen to stories.” Lin Xu said.
"Then go ahead." Ji Yuqiao's tone was a little twitchy.
“Once upon a time there was a mother lion and her little lion. The mother and her little lion climbed up a steep hillside...”
Lin Xu's voice was gentle, like a trickling stream in the mountains, clear and melodious.
Ji Yuqiao closed her eyes, her mood gradually calmed down, and her originally sleepy head became drowsy unknowingly.
Drowsily, she seemed to feel a warm kiss falling on her cheek.
The voice in my ear was gentle but with a hint of sad regret, "When I think about it, I seem to have never had the chance to coax you to sleep before..."
"But fortunately, I can still do it now. If there is a chance, our family will be together forever.”
Ji Yuqiao's heartstrings were slightly touched.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered her mother, whom she had never met before.
......
Ji Zeqiu stayed at home for a week. After dinner that day, he went back to his room to pack the clothes he would bring to the set.
Ji Yuqiao knocked on Ji Zeqiu's door.
He packed his luggage very skillfully. When he saw her coming in, he didn't even raise his head, "No pocket money?"
The corners of Ji Yuqiao's mouth twitched, as if she came to him only to ask for money, "No. "It's something else..."
"What else can you do?" Ji Zeqiu looked at her as if he was curious.
Ji Yuqiao rolled her eyes, not intending to argue with him, "Isn't Lin Xu married? How many children does he have?"
Ji Zeqiu nodded.
"Who is her husband? Have you ever seen her child?"
Ji Zeqiu paused while packing his things, his voice hesitant, "She, she... Just go and ask her. Got it?"
"I'll ask you first, and I'll ask her later."
"Go and ask her directly." Ji Zeqiu was also unsure about Lin Xu's plan. Just ask her to ask Lin Xu directly.
Ji Yuqiao unconsciously grasped the corners of his clothes with both hands, his eyebrows almost knitted together, and his eyes showed a trace of entanglement and hesitation.
for a long time.
Just when Ji Zeqiu was impatient with waiting, she spoke her mind.
"Is Lin Xu really our mother?"
