Chapter 315: Living in the Light
When Qingqing left, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening.
With a motherly heart, she repeatedly told Nanzhi to go to bed early and not to hurt her body by staying up late, and then reluctantly left.
Nanzhi also felt a little sad.
Nanyi is not around yet.
——As the only child in the fourth generation of the Qing family, Qingxi was very happy that she had a younger brother and insisted on dragging Nan Yi to sleep with him.
In order to attract Nan Yi, he even vividly told how beautiful the starry sky projection in his room was and how fun the VR game console was.
Nanyi was indeed moved, and after getting Nanzhi's happy agreement, she reluctantly agreed to Qingxi's invitation.
It is estimated that the two brothers are currently playing games in Qingxi's room.
However, Zhou Ling promised Nanzhi that he would arrange for the two children to go to bed on time at 9:30, so that Nanzhi, who had worked hard all day and was still injured, could have a good rest without worrying.
Nanzhi did not refuse the kindness, and safely handed the child to her cousin, enjoying the rare alone time.
Hmm... I'm not used to it.
She used to love being alone, but now she finds it strange that her room is empty.
Just at this moment, Nanzhi’s cell phone rang.
She was a little surprised, picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID.
Um? Why is it Lu Shixu?
So, Nazhi’s first question after being connected was:
“Why are you calling me so late?”
Nanzhi naturally thought that something was wrong with Lu Shixu Find her.
Unexpectedly, this answer silenced the microphone for two seconds.
Then, Lu Shixu's faint voice sounded:
"Zhizhi, today is the third day of our official relationship."
There was a hint of resentment in his tone.
Unfortunately, Nanzhi couldn't feel it very well. She was just surprised:
"It's been three days?"
In such a short period of time, so many things happened, and my moods were ups and downs, so long that it seemed like a century had passed.
In this regard, Lu Shixu and Nazhi had the same emotion.
But his emotion was different from Nazhi’s:
“Yes, it’s been three days, and we haven’t seen each other for one day. I’ve been waiting for your call today.”
Speaking of the first half of the sentence, Nanzhi didn’t feel much at all.
It wasn't until she heard the second half of the sentence that she felt a little guilty.
"Sorry, I forgot."
She was honest.
Little did he know that these words made Lu Shixu's heart bleed.
Although Lu Shixu has gradually realized that Nanzhi's feelings for him are not deep, this relationship is almost begged by him.
However, being vaguely aware of it and experiencing it personally are two different things.
He felt very depressed and fell into silence.
Nanzhi didn’t realize it at all. She mentioned what happened today:
“The paternity test report came out and it turns out that I am really Qingzhi. This feeling is so amazing.”
After being depressed for only 2 or 3 seconds, Lu Shixu quickly recovered:
"Then are you happy?"
Nanzhi smiled:
"Of course, the Qing family is very good, and the Qing family is also very good."
She treated Lu Shixu a little bit I opened my defenses, but not to the point of showing my heart and lungs, so I restrained myself from saying these few comments.
However, the evaluation of these few sentences is already very high.
Lu Shixu was a little sour.
In addition, I am also happy that she is happy.
The atmosphere in the Qing family is indeed good, and he was deeply impressed by the rare encounters he had with them.
This is completely different from his childhood experience and family.
Lu Shixu fell into the abyss and climbed out like a devil. But he hopes that Nanzhi can always be in the light and warmth, without experiencing any hardships...
Lu Shixu let out a sigh of relief:
"Zhizhi, if you..."
He originally wanted to tell Nanzhi that no matter what difficulties and troubles he encountered, , he will always be on her side.
Unfortunately, as soon as he started speaking, there was a burst of chaotic noise from Nanzhi.
It seemed that Nanzhi put away the phone in a hurry, and the quilt fabric made a rustling sound across the receiver.
Then, there was a childish and somewhat doubtful voice -
"Mom, are you talking to someone on the phone?"
"No, I was just playing with my phone. ...Hey, Yiyi, why did you come back suddenly? Aren’t you playing games with Brother Xiaoxi?”
“He’s not Brother Xiaoxi.”
"Huh?"
"We just played a game and made a bet, and the person who won was my brother. Although it was my first time to play, I still beat Qingxi! So I am brother Yiyi! He is the little one "Brother Xi!"
"Pfft...Okay, so you don't want to sleep with your brother Xiao Xi?"
"That's not true, I'm worried about mom. Does your mother's wound hurt? Grandma said that the injury will heal quickly, so don't play with your mobile phone. "
"Yes, I understand, little housekeeper."
There was no goodbye after that, and Lu Shixu only heard the busy signal of the phone hanging up.
I think it was Nanzhi who hung up the phone because he was afraid of being discovered by his son.
Lu Shixu:...
Okay, he confirmed his identity and couldn't get past Nanyi.
So much so that he didn’t even dare to reveal his identity, and the serious relationship just created a sense of stealing.
So who is Nan Yi’s biological father? Why do you always have trouble with him?
Lu Shixu had a sullen face and tapped his phone rhythmically with his fingers.
Seeing time passing by little by little.
Tao An had to remind him:
"Sir, the old house has arrived."
To be precise, it has been almost 30 minutes.
The people in the old house and the old gentleman had already received the news, and they got up from their sleep and waited in the living room.
What’s the result?
Mr. Mr. Nan was delayed in the car for nearly half an hour because of a phone call from Miss Nan, and he still has no intention of going in.
Tao An thought of the elderly Mr. Lu and couldn't help but remind him.
He means well.
Unfortunately, Lu Shixu just raised his crow-feather-like eyelashes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:
“Don’t talk too much.”
Tao Anxin tensed, He quickly lowered his head in response.
Lu Shixu did not enter the house for a long time.
The lights in the old house were brightly lit, obviously waiting for him.
Another half hour later, his grandfather Lu Wenzong had been waiting for a full hour.
Lu Shixu waited until the time was almost up before he opened the door and got out of the car.
Lu Shixu himself lives in a courtyard in the city center, and the Lu family's old house is similar to the Qing family. It is located in a remote and quiet environment, with mountains at its back and water in front, which can be called a geomantic treasure.
It's just that the Lu family's old house doesn't have the graceful, delicate, magnificent garden like the Qing family's old house. It's very empty, like a cave entrenched in a dense forest.
And in this cave lives an old, useless lion king.
Perhaps this lion king once dominated the world when he was strong.
But the Lion King is old after all.
From Lu Shixu's point of view, since he is old, he should just stay well, why should he do useless things to make him unhappy?
The most taboo thing about being old and fatuous is not being able to recognize yourself.
It seems that his grandson is going to teach that grandfather a good lesson today.
