Chapter 117
Chapter 117
Lei Xu’s son Lei Han didn’t understand the twists and turns between adults. He took a piece of chicken juice and matsutake and put it in his mouth. Then he cried out in surprise, “Wow, it’s delicious! Xiaochen, you’re so happy, every day. I ate the dishes made by Uncle Xiaoyu.” Although the Lei’s chefs are superb, the recipes in Han Zhuoyu’s hands are all modified from 9527 after the most rigorous calculations. The taste is naturally better and the nutritional value is also quite high. If you don’t taste it, it’s easy to get addicted.
“Dad said that the muscles on my body were all developed by Xiaoyu’s father. Look.” Lei Chen rolled up his sleeves and revealed his lotus root-like fleshy arm with a small lump on it.
“I’ll touch it,” Lei Han poked with his fingertips and judged, “It’s pretty hard.”
Lei Chen smiled triumphantly, and put a piece of lettuce into his brother’s bowl, “Try this, this is Dad’s specialty.”
“It’s delicious! Crispy and delicious!” Lei Han slapped his second uncle’s horses vigorously.
The awkward atmosphere between the adults eased in the children’s innocent dialogue. Lei Xu also picked up a piece of lettuce and sighed, “I didn’t expect you to be able to cook, little brother, a good man at home!”
“You have to learn to do a little bit, or how can Xiaoyu be busy alone?” Lei Ting said as he served his wife with vegetables, and told him to eat more.
Lucia lowered her head and mechanically chewed the vegetables in her mouth, feeling only sweet, bitter, spicy and salty. The five flavors of life were all stirred in her mouth, making it hard to swallow. Maintaining a long-lasting marriage depends not on flowers and romance, but on the simplest but most profound little warmth and happiness that are most easily overlooked in life: for example, cooking together, chatting together, little happiness. A small hug, a light peck, or a smile that can be understood…
It’s a pity that she understood it too late.
Lucia blinked desperately, trying to quickly evaporate the bitter tears that filled his eyes. Today has failed enough to show no trace of weakness.
Elder Lei ate in silence for a while, looked at Lucia and asked, “Xiaoya, are you going back this time?”
“If you don’t go back, Grandpa, I’m going to go back to my country for development.” Lucia quickly pulled a smile away.
“That’s great. When I come back, I will have a lot of time to take care of the children.” Grandpa Lei touched the round head of his great-grandson and asked with a smile, “Xiaochen, mom is coming back, are you happy?”
“No feeling.” Lei Chen told the truth.
Elder Lei smiled slightly, and continued to ask, “Don’t you miss your mother for so many years?”
“I just thought about it at first, but then I didn’t want to.” Lei Chen secretly grabbed Xiaoyu’s father, who had been silent for a long time. When I first returned to China, I really wanted to think about it, but my mother never called himself. He always remembered his mother’s relieved expression when his father picked him up. He waved away easily, before he waited for his father to step through the gate of the departure lounge. The back who turned away first. Although he was young, he already felt it. He knew that he had been abandoned by his mother.
Then there is a strange home, that sudden kidnapping…
But it doesn’t matter, those things are over, he now has Xiaoyu’s father, the most powerful Xiaoyu father in the world! Lei Chen put down the dishes and hugged Han Zhuoyu’s arm with nostalgia.
Han Zhuoyu, who was in a gloomy mood, showed a faint smile, rubbing the child’s dark and smooth hair.
Grandpa Lei’s old face was stiff like a tree bark, and the words he had prepared were blocked by his great-grandson. How does Lucia become a mother? After three years of walking, I didn’t even know how to make a phone call to my child. I would leave it alone during the holidays. No wonder the child didn’t kiss her. I didn’t call her back if I had known it a long time ago, so I could just arrange a few women for my grandson.
Receiving the old man’s dissatisfied eyes, Lucia lowered her head, constantly reflecting and struggling in her heart. She can’t give up her children and husband. After three years of wandering abroad, she realized that she took herself too high. Without the protection of the Lei family and the support of her husband, she was nothing. She used to think that the honors and achievements that were within reach were so far away from her that she would not be able to reach with all her best. Her so-called talent and ability are just the praise of the Lei family behind her. Compared with the real master, she is still far behind.
With the pride carved into her bones, she worked hard for three years, but a show that was pinned high ultimately failed, and her studio was in jeopardy. After receiving a call from her parents begging, she thought about it all night and decided to eat the bait that Guo’s mother had cast. She wants to come back to fight for the happiness she once discarded easily! These originally belonged to her!
Regrouped, Lucia leaned over to touch her son’s head and said softly, “Sorry baby, mom was wrong. Would you please forgive mom? Mom will try to be a qualified mother in the future.”
Lei Chen flicked his head, just to prevent Lucia from touching him. He was too afraid of his mother’s capriciousness, and he was afraid that it was another whim or use of his mother. Does mother really love herself? When he was alone, he would always ask himself this way. With his super high IQ, the answer he got was always negative. Mother doesn’t love herself or father, she loves only herself.
Lucia stretched out her hand but couldn’t touch her son’s head. She caught a glimpse of the young man’s slightly bent mouth. There was a fire in her heart. Just as she wanted to hold her son into her arms, Thunder said coldly, “Enough, let us rest assured Is it okay to have a meal? I’ll talk about it after the meal!”
“Yes, eat, eat.” Lei Xu’s wife, Wu Shuiyun, smiled and made rounds, and frequently served dishes to the elders. She doesn’t approve of what the elders do. A family of three can live a peaceful life. Moreover, Lei Ting has decided to resign from all military and political positions. The Lei family does not need him to add to the cake. Looking for another development in the mall may not be a way for the family. Why do the elders have to toss about it because of a little prejudice? Don’t get the last bamboo basket empty.
“You can’t eat and sleep, let’s eat.” Lei Xu glanced at Lucia with a warning look.
The dining table was finally quiet, and Han Zhuoyu breathed a sigh of relief without a trace. Although he was calm on the face, for a while, he was really afraid that Lei Chen would choose his mother. This is human nature, he can’t force it.
As if feeling the anxiety of Xiaoyu’s father, Lei Chen was very eager to pick up vegetables for Xiaoyu’s father, and put it in the plate if he couldn’t fit it in the bowl. The high hills pierced the eyes of some people.
Han Zhuoyu couldn’t take care of it himself, so he picked out the thorns from the cod meat and put them in the children’s bowl, helping the children to wipe off the oil stars and green onion from the corners of their mouths.
Seeing the warm scene of father and son filial piety in front of him, the smile in Lei Ting’s eyes almost overflowed.
For a meal, some people eat it happily, but some people eat it very uncomfortably. Elder Lei took the lead to put down his chopsticks, said coldly, “I’m full,” and got up and left the table, followed by Lei Xingbang and Guo Yinghe. The Lei Xu family of three ate the dishes cleanly, took out a tissue and wiped their mouths contentedly.
“I’ll wash the dishes.” Lucia tidied away the dishes.
“No, let me do it.” Han Zhuoyu waved his hand.
“I’ll come here.” Lucy Asia-Pacific needs this opportunity to perform. She wants to let Lei Xu know that she is no longer the former Lucia princess, who has nothing to do with her fingers. She can also be a good wife and a good mother.
“Let’s go together then.” Han Zhuoyu suggested helplessly for fear of breaking the dishes in the scramble.
“Okay.” Just as there was something to say to the young man, Lucia promised hurriedly.
Put the dishes in the sink, pour the right amount of detergent, Lucia secretly looked at the young man standing next to him while putting the water.
The orange light hit the young man’s side face, and the faint shadows set off his deep and perfect facial features like carvings. He is about 18 meters tall. He has an extraordinary temperament just wearing the simplest white shirt and camel slacks. His sleeves He reached his elbow, revealing a white wrist and slender fingers, which repeatedly attracted the attention of others.
Even if she was so close, she couldn’t find the shortcomings in him. He does have crazy capital. Even the distant country F has countless fans. They say that he is the property of the people all over the world.
With the movement of your fingers, you can have everything that others dream of, so why bother with yourself? Without the Thunder, he deserves better, isn’t it?
Thinking of this, Lucia slowly said, “Han Zhuoyu, will you leave the Thunder?”
Han Zhuoyu remained silent, but there was a slight pause in the action of wiping the dishes.
“Have you never thought about the impact you two will have on Lei Chen? He is still young, he doesn’t understand anything, and he doesn’t feel wrong. But when he grows up, he understands things like you An abnormal relationship will become a shame to him! You will make him unable to hold his head up in front of outsiders!” Lucia’s eyes were red, as if she was feeling distressed for her son. Indeed, people in Country C are conservative, and most people cannot accept homosexuality, and even think it is a disease that can be cured! They will escape homosexuals like the plague.
This time the pause was longer, but in the end, Han Zhuoyu only glanced at Lucia briefly and continued the unfinished housework.
This kind of silence and ignorance is even more intractable than trying to argue. Lucia choked and tried to persuade from another angle, “I heard that you established a relationship with Thunder when you were 18? You had someone you liked before. Do you know what love is? Do you know whether you like a man or a woman? Don’t mistake gratitude for like, so as to ruin your true happiness.”
There were slight fluctuations on Han Zhuoyu’s expressionless face, and he tilted his head to look at Lucia.
The young man’s eyes were so clean and clear, as if he could penetrate the flesh to reach people’s hearts. How can a person with such sharp eyes fail to understand where his feelings belong? Lucia was a little embarrassed, and was about to look away, but was slammed aside by the thunder that strode in, “Have you said enough?!”
Lucia’s interrogation just now revealed the fear hidden deep in his heart. The 18-year-old is still very ignorant, unable to distinguish between love and gratitude. He restrained him without a trace, and eliminated the possibility of women around him, but as the youth became more and more outstanding and dazzling, no one knew that his inner fear was also rapidly swelling. He wanted to stop this woman’s mouth.
Lucia slammed her back on the table, and the intense pain caused a fire that had already been in her stomach, and she retorted in a shrill voice, “I didn’t say enough! You two are wrong together. Separating earlier can give you money. A chance for each other to correct their mistakes! Thunder, you used to be normal, you don’t like men! It’s just because I hurt you that you have this illusion. Shall we remarry? Give the baby a normal home!”
She eagerly took Thunder’s hand, but was thrown away mercilessly.
“Normal home?” The man sarcastically smiled, “Do you think our previous home is normal? We only meet twice a year. If we can’t give you wine, flowers, candlelight dinner, jewelry, Chinese clothes, luxury cars, luxury houses, then It’s also normal to get out of anger and go away. It’s normal? I didn’t want to take off my 10-inch high heels after I was pregnant for seven months, but when I was attending a banquet, I got my feet so that my son was born prematurely. This is also normal? It’s normal to be willing to undergo an operation and forcibly hold his son in his stomach and almost die from lack of oxygen. This is also normal? After giving birth, he refuses to breastfeed his child in order to restore his body as soon as possible. This is also normal? I hang around in various banquet shows all day. But never willing to stay at home and take care of the children is normal?”
Lucia was speechless when pressed.
Lei Ting was silent for a moment, and suddenly he hugged the silent youth with his backhand, pecked and kissed the corner of his mouth, his tone became very gentle, “Although my current home is small, only more than 90 square meters, but as long as I get home, I can see the vigor and vitality. After eating steaming meals, the family of three sits together for a while watching TV and chatting for a while, then washes away all the dust and exhaustion, hugs and sleeps peacefully. This kind of plain but warm life It’s the happiness I long for. Go back. If you really miss Xiaochen, I won’t stop you from meeting.”
He waved impatiently.
“Dad, I want to go home.” Lei Chen, who had been standing at the door for a while, finally spoke softly and yawned greatly. He felt that grandpa, grandpa, and grandma didn’t seem to like Xiaoyu’s father, and they kept asking him if he wanted his mother to come back, and if he wanted to keep his father and mother together. He felt terribly uncomfortable.
He doesn’t hate his mother, but he doesn’t want to live with her either.
“Okay, let’s go home.” Lei Ting picked up his son and took a deep look at his mother who was standing behind the door with an especially embarrassed expression.
Han Zhuoyu washed away the foam from his hands, nodded at Mother Guo, and left in silence.
After digesting the series of interrogations the son had just made, Mother Guo stared at Lucia fiercely. No wonder the grandson has been autistic since she was a child. It turned out that she was injured by premature birth and was almost suffocated in her mother’s stomach. They were all mothers. She could not accept Lucia’s disregard for the life and death of her child for the so-called beauty, figure, and career. behavior. This marriage is a good divorce! It is difficult for her son to hide from her for so many years.
“Let’s go, don’t come to the door in the future.” When Lucia was about to lose her composure, Mother Guo finally retracted her gaze like a knife and waved tiredly.
Lucia quickly took off her apron and ran away as if to escape.
