In the Lu family, everyone knew that Young Master Lu who came back from abroad was highly valued by the old man, and everyone treated him with respect.
The housekeeper in the corridor saw Lu Rongrong passing by, and he said respectfully: "Master."
Lu Rongrong nodded casually, "Where's my grandfather?"
"Master is in the study."
"good."
"Master, the master is discussing something with the secretary, it's inconvenient for you to go in now." Seeing that Lu Rongrong wanted to go in, the housekeeper hurriedly stopped him.
Lu Rongrong raised his eyebrows, "The secretary is inside? Talking about the company? Isn't that just right? Anyway, the company will be handed over to me sooner or later."
With that said, he insisted on pushing the door open and going in.
"Young Master..." The housekeeper couldn't stop him.
In the study, Mr. Lu was talking about the company with his secretary, when he was suddenly interrupted, he subconsciously frowned.
"I was talking about something, why did you come in?" Mr. Lu pinched his brows.
"Master, Eldest Young Master insists on coming in to see you." The housekeeper said hastily.
"Okay." Mr. Lu handed the document to the secretary, "Follow the original plan first, and then improve it if there is any situation."
"Yes, Mr. Lu." The secretary left with the document.
Lu Rongrong greeted the other party with a smile, "Thank you, Secretary Li."
"It's my job responsibilities."
After the door was closed, old man Lu began to reprimand Lu Rongrong, with a stern but conniving tone: "There are no rules, no rules, have you forgotten the rules after going abroad for a few years?"
Lu Rongrong restrained himself a little in front of the old man, "Grandpa, I have something important to tell you, so I am so anxious to see you."
Mr. Lu asked him, "What's the matter?"
"Grandpa, I wanted to chat with Lu Huo just now. After all, we haven't seen each other for a few years, and our brotherhood has become estranged." Lu Rongrong said, "However, I just walked into the yard and saw a strange woman coming from Lu Huo's room. Come out and leave through the back door."
Mr. Lu looked at Lu Rongyao with sharp eyes, "Are you sure you saw clearly?"
"Grandpa, in broad daylight, I can't be wrong." Lu Rongrong's tone was affirmative.
Mr. Lu's face darkened. Before that, he asked people to install a lot of surveillance cameras and changed the lock on the back door. However, now there are people coming and going freely at the back door, even in Lu Huo's residence. If this is true, this is provoking him.
"You don't need to worry about this matter, I will ask someone to handle it." Mr. Lu said, "Since you have graduated now, I will ask someone to assist you when you go to the company starting tomorrow."
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely double Lu's profit several times in the future." Lu Rongrong looked confident.
Grandpa Lu has always loved and valued his grandson Lu Rongyao. Even though Lu Rongyao has caused a lot of troubles and disasters abroad in the past few years, the old man still values this grandson.
"Join the company and get rid of your bad habits and bad habits." Mr. Lu had a straight face, but his tone slowed down.
"Grandpa, I know."
at night.
After eating, Qiao Xi stayed in the room. She sat in front of the easel and quickly drew something.
She didn't stop until it was dark.
Qiao Xi dialed the video invitation, and the next second, the boy's face appeared in front of her eyes.
Lu Huo should have just taken a shower. His hair is wet and messy, his eyes are dark, and his cold white face is stained with water.
Qiao Xi could see the glistening drops of water running down the side of his face, slowly rolling down, across his distinct collarbone, and sinking into the dark blue collar, it was really attractive.
Qiao Xi subconsciously pursed her lips, reluctant to look away.
"Lu Huo, I have something to show you."
Lu Huo held the mobile phone in one hand, and turned off the snowball sitting on his lap in the other hand. Today, when the fire was turned off, he suddenly lost his appetite. He also found that its mood was unstable and became irritable.
He checked the information, and it is autumn now, and the male rabbit is in the sunny period in September or October.
I turned off the flame and wanted to find someone.
Lu Huo looked at the girl who was very close to the camera, with a small white face enlarged in front of his eyes, and he chuckled, "What is it?"
Qiao Xi smiled badly, she turned the camera to the easel behind her, and saw a painting on it.
In the painting, the boy in the wheelchair has flushed face, bright eyes, slightly parted thin lips, raised head, and the protruding Adam's apple seems to be sliding.
His white shirt was fully buttoned up, revealing a broad chest with a "xi" tattoo on his chest, and his long golden tail hanging under the wheelchair, shining brightly.
The boy raised his head, his cold brows were full of lust, as if he was begging someone to kiss him.
It's downright sexy.
This painting is completely in the state of Lu Huo after being bitten by the small leaf bud in the afternoon. Qiao Xi couldn't forget it, so he drew it.
With a little pride, she asked him: "This is what you look like this afternoon, do you look good?"
Lu Huo didn't know what he looked like at the time. He blushed all of a sudden, and when he rubbed his head, his hands stopped, his dark eyes were full of shame, "Xixi."
The young man in the painting is full of desire and lust, and Lu Huo wishes to tear up such a painting.
Qiao Xi pretended not to hear the annoyance in Lu Huo's tone, she smiled sweetly, "You won't let me touch your tail, so I have to draw it."
Her white and smooth face was enlarged in front of his eyes, and Lu Huo could clearly see the teasing and little complacency in her eyes.
In the next second, he heard the wicked girl complain first, "Don't you let me touch my tail, and let me draw it to see, to satisfy my greed?"
She accused him: "Lu Huo, you can't be too domineering."
Who is overbearing
There was helplessness and connivance in Lu Huo's eyes.
In the study this afternoon, she sat on his lap and they kissed.
She was like a beautiful little fairy, hooking him all the time. When he was about to lose control, she wanted to see him make a fool of herself, and wanted to pinch his tail several times.
If he didn't stop him, he knew that he would be out of control, and he didn't seem to be showing his ugly face in front of her eyes.
Lu Huo's voice was a little hoarse, "Xixi, it's not good to draw such a picture."
Qiao Xi in the camera has bright eyes and white teeth, like a pretty little villain, "What's wrong? You begged me to draw your human body before."
Lu Huo's ears burned up all of a sudden. That time he was jealous, played tricks, and deliberately used his only advantage to seduce her, so that her eyes would only be on him.
It was his fault.
Qiao Xi saw that Lu Huo's eyes trembled slightly, her eyes were full of shame, she stopped teasing him, "Lu Huo, I'm going to grandma's house tomorrow."
It was originally planned to go there the day after tomorrow, but when eating tonight, Mother Qiao checked the weather forecast. It will rain heavily the day after tomorrow and it will be inconvenient to travel. It is better to go there a day earlier and spend more time with the elderly.
Lu Huo asked, "When are you coming back?"
"I don't know yet. It's grandma's birthday. Mom is going to take me to stay at grandma's house for a few days."
When sketching, she absorbed a lot of gold energy and could live for two months, so leaving Lu Huo for a few days will not be a problem, "After I leave, you remember to miss me every day."
A slight smile appeared in Lu Huo's eyes, "Okay."
Qiao Xi's grandmother is not in City B, but in City J, which is beautiful. Qiao's mother looks gentle and quiet. Qiao Xi inherited her aura, and she also has a bit of the demeanor of a girl from City J. Her skin is too tender and juicy.
After getting off the plane, the car was already waiting outside the airport.
The car drove into the alley, surrounded by houses with white walls and gray tiles.
Mother Qiao hasn't come back for a long time, she is in a good mood, "Your grandma is happy, otherwise, this time her 70th birthday will not be celebrated at home."
"Everything is based on the happiness of her old man." Zhao Yuxi said, her voice was hoarse, as if she was about to lose her voice. Although her voice was not pleasant, it was better than not being able to speak before.
With three days left, she will be fully recovered.
Qiao Xi sat quietly at the side, and saw the pavilion stopped at the door of a big house.
At this time, there was a black car parked outside the door. The door opened, and a tall figure stepped out of the car.
It's Huo Yu.
Mother Qiao obviously saw it too, she said with a smile: "I didn't tell you, this kid Huo Yu knew about grandma's birthday, so he came back from abroad specially to see her old man."
Huo's family and Qiao's family have a good relationship. In the past, Huo Yu often went to Qiao's house. During the summer vacation, Qiao's mother took Qiao Xi to visit her grandmother. Huo Yu also stayed at Qiao Xi's grandmother's house for a while.
Huo Yu saw Qiao's car and walked over.
"Xiaoyu is here, let's get out of the car." Mother Qiao said with a smile.
Qiao Xi nodded, her expression was calm, but Zhao Yuxi's heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
Lu Huo is the person she needs to protect in this life, and Huo Yu is her true love in the previous life. She has blindly pursued him for several years and liked him for so long. Although she has been abused many times, she is still with him in the end.
Now facing Huo Yu again, her heart will still be uncontrollably chaotic.
After getting off the car, Huo Yu was polite and greeted Qiao's mother immediately.
"When did you arrive? Why didn't you go in?" Mother Qiao asked.
"Not long ago, you and Xiaoxi, auntie, just came." Recently, Huo Yu was busy promoting new projects abroad, and came back overnight last night.
He was wearing a well-fitting navy blue suit, with a handsome face, and he was outstandingly handsome. There was a bit of a man's calmness between his brows, which was cold and attractive.
From the moment Qiao Xi got off the car, his gaze had been on her. After a while, she looked even more dazzling and beautiful, and she no longer had the affection and concern for him that she used to have.
A little disappointment flashed in Huo Yu's eyes.
The moment Zhao Yuxi appeared when Huo Yu appeared, her face flushed and her heart beat faster. When she noticed that the other party was staring at Qiao Xi, she felt as if cold water had been poured on her, and she suddenly regained consciousness.
The current Qiao Xi is not dead yet, what Huo Yu sees is only his White Moonlight Qiao Xi, not her substitute.
Zhao Yuxi's heart tightened, feeling very uncomfortable.
After getting off the car, she passed by Huo Yu, her face became hot and red uncontrollably.
"Auntie, Xiaoxi, give me your luggage." Huo Yu took the initiative to pick up the luggage that the driver took out from the trunk.
"Okay, you carry it." Qiao's mother watched Huo Yu grow up, and she was no longer polite to him. "What is your mother doing recently? I haven't seen her for a long time."
Huo Yu withdrew his stern aura, like a very polite junior, and stayed beside Qiao's mother. He kept looking at Qiao Xi from the corner of his eye, "She's traveling with my father recently, and she won't be back until some time..."
Seeing the moss on the ground, Huo Yu reminded Qiao Xi, "Xiao Xi, if you go this way, the moss there will be slippery."
Qiao Xi looked at the ground, and there was indeed a large area of moss on the gravel road in front of her, "Thank you."
Huo Yu's lips curled up, "Xiao Xi, don't be polite to me."
On the other side, Zhao Yuxi's eyes were dark, and the stuffiness in her chest was comparable to the stuffy heat before it was about to rain.
Qiao Xi's grandmother had already been waiting, and there was no one else in the house except her and the nanny who took care of her, which seemed extremely deserted.
"Mom, I'm here with Xiaoxi and Xixi, and this kid Huo Yu is also here to celebrate your birthday." Mother Qiao walked into the room, her face was a little more dependent on her mother when she was a daughter.
"Hurry up and sit down, are you tired on the road? The weather is gloomy and hot, and I'm afraid it's going to rain. Come in time." The old lady was wearing a delicately embroidered cheongsam, her half-white hair was combed neatly, and was pulled back on her head. , wearing a fiery red jade around his neck, which has a kind of indescribable elegance.
Grandma's family is considered a scholarly family with a certain heritage.
When Zhao Yuxi's mother, Yang Qi, was with Zhao Yuxi's father, Zhao Mengjie, her grandmother strongly objected for a time. Later, Yang Qi refused to listen, and even ran away from home, and obtained a marriage certificate with Zhao Mengjie in private.
It was not until a long time later that the relationship between the grandmother and the eldest daughter gradually eased.
Zhao's family's economic conditions are very poor, and his grandmother has been helping out, but Zhao Mengjie has been unfulfilling, and even likes to gamble, which his grandmother hates the most, and the relationship with the eldest daughter's family has been alienated a lot.
Later, the eldest daughter and son-in-law had an accident, and grandma regretted it very much.
She looked at Zhao Yuxi with eyes full of pity, "Come here, Xixi."
"Grandma." Zhao Yuxi hurried forward.
"Why is your voice hoarse?" Grandma turned her head to look at the younger daughter, and woke up somewhat, "For your elder sister's sake, you have to take good care of her."
Mother Qiao felt a little wronged, "Mom, look at what you said, Xixi is my niece and aunt, can I take good care of her?"
"Grandma, my aunt is very good to me. I lost my voice when I got angry before, and I'm getting better now. You don't have to worry." Zhao Yuxi quickly explained.
Grandma asked her to sit beside her, and patted the back of her hand lovingly, "Children from poor families start their own families early, and children without parents mature early. If you have any unhappy things, you should tell grandma. Grandma is getting old. I don’t ask for anything else, I just hope that you will all be happy and live happily.”
In the future, she will not lose face when she goes down to face her eldest daughter.
Zhao Yuxi nodded, "I know grandma loves me."
When she was a child, she knew that she had a great grandmother, but she was very indifferent to their family. Now that her mother passed away, her grandmother wanted to make up for her.
In her last life, she did not accept such belated family affection.
But in this life, she has figured it out a lot, and her grandmother is getting older, so she doesn't need to haggle over every detail with an old man, and her grandmother's inheritance will be left to her in the future, which can be regarded as compensation for her.
The grandma felt the closeness of the eldest granddaughter, and she smiled a little more on her face, and then looked at the younger granddaughter.
I have to say that God is partial to this little granddaughter, and almost all beautiful words are used on her.
The girl was wearing a crescent white dress, with bright eyes and white teeth, snow skin and black hair, she looked as good as the freshest flower on the branch outside the yard.
Not to mention her soft figure, just look at her fingertips hanging on one side. They are fine white with light pink, which is pretty tight. Not to mention her temperament. Raised by the earth, it is difficult for anyone to compare.
Grandma looked at the eldest granddaughter sitting next to her, and had to say that even if the eldest granddaughter wore the beautiful clothes prepared by Qiao's family, her temperament could not match half of Qiao Xi's.
Grandma subconsciously leaned towards Zhao Yuxi. If she had persuaded her eldest daughter not to marry Zhao Mengjie, her eldest granddaughter would not have had a worse life than her younger granddaughter since childhood.
"Xiao Xi, sit down too. How is your health recently? Does your heart still hurt?" Comparing with her love for Zhao Yuxi just now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that grandma's attitude towards Qiao Xi is obviously a little weaker.
Qiao Xi knows that the grandmother in the book loves the heroine Zhao Yuxi very much, so she is not surprised, "Recently, my health is quite good, and I seldom get sick."
With Lu Huo around, he is her medicine.
Grandma looked at Huo Yu and said with a smile, "How many years ago did Xiaoyu come last time?"
"Hello, grandma." In the early years, they asked Huo Yu to follow Qiao Xi's example and call the old lady grandma.
He is tall and handsome, he restrained his coldness, and his gentle and polite appearance was very pleasing to the elders, "The last time I came was five years ago, when Xiaoxi was still in junior high school, I accompanied her to spend the summer vacation. "
Grandma signaled Huo Yu to sit on the other side of her, and Zhao Yuxi happened to be next to her, which meant that Huo Yu would sit beside Zhao Yuxi.
The old man seemed to match the two together.
Qiao Xi remembered that it was mentioned in the book that grandma always wanted Huo Yu and Zhao Yuxi to be together. In her old man's opinion, Huo Yu was a young man with excellent conditions, and Zhao Yuxi would be very happy with him, which also made up for her love for the eldest daughter. sorry.
Qiao Xi seemed to be watching a good show, obediently sitting beside Qiao's mother, playing with her fingers boredly, while thinking about Lu Huo.
On the opposite side, feeling the familiar aura of the man beside her, Zhao Yuxi blushed.
The first time she met Huo Yu was on the bed, he was drunk and regarded her as Qiao Xi, and then there were so many ups and downs.
She is very familiar with his body, as long as he approaches, her legs will become weak subconsciously.
Zhao Yuxi loves and hates at the same time, thinking about Lu Huo for a while, and is very entangled.
Seeing the shyness on the eldest granddaughter's face, the grandma smiled with satisfaction, "I have asked someone to clean the room, you go to put your luggage first, dinner is already being prepared, and you will come down to eat after packing your luggage later."
"Let the juniors go, Mom, I'll talk to you." Mother Qiao said.
Grandma is naturally happy to chat with her little daughter, "Okay."
The nanny took Qiao Xi and the others to the room on the second floor. The house has been around for a certain period of time, but the mahogany stairs are well maintained.
The decoration inside the house is all in a simple and simple style, with exquisite patterns carved on the doors and windows.
Qiao Xi chose the first room at will. Zhao Yuxi saw that Huo Yu wanted to speak, so she picked the room next to Qiao Xi first. Huo Yu could only live in the last room next to Zhao Yuxi's room.
Huo Yu took the initiative to carry Qiao Xi's luggage into the room, and he looked at her tenderly, "I'll come and find you to go downstairs for dinner later."
"No, I want to take a shower, you guys go downstairs first, you don't have to wait for me later."
Zhao Yuxi said, "Brother Huo, please."
Her voice was hoarse, she could barely speak, and her eyes fell on her luggage.
Huo Yu helped her carry the luggage, "You are Xiaoxi's cousin, you are welcome."
The smile on the corner of Zhao Yuxi's mouth could hardly be maintained. She was obviously his wife in the previous life, but he only had Qiao Xi in his eyes.
Why is Qiao Xi still not sick
In the room, the surrounding decoration and layout gave the illusion of a daughter's boudoir in ancient times. No wonder her mother prepared other different styles of clothes for her before she came.
Qiao Xi took a shower, she changed into the new clothes her mother had prepared, then she walked to the window and invited Lu Huo to make a video call.
The setting sun outside the window has not yet set, and the light shines through the carved wooden window, forming golden light.
In the camera, the girl is wearing a light crow-colored blouse with slanted breasts and buttons, and her white and delicate face is stained with water drops, showing a shocking simplicity and purity.
The light in Lu Huo's eyes was deep, "Xixi."
"Lu Huo, I'm at grandma's house. I just finished taking a shower." Qiao Xi's eyebrows were curved, and the golden sunset reflected in his eyes, bright and attractive.
The coldness on Lu Huo's eyebrows faded, "Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet, go down and eat later." Qiao Xi looked at him directly through the screen, "I can't draw you at grandma's house these days."
Lu Huo glanced at her faintly. The pictures of him she painted couldn't be seen, they couldn't be seen at all.
"You can paint landscapes." Lu Huo suggested to her.
Qiao Xi shook her head, "I'm more inspired to draw you, next time you can take off your clothes and lie in the water." Thinking of this, she suddenly became interested, "It's okay to not take off your clothes."
She thought of Lu Huo's wet white shirt, his chest was vaguely in the water, and the golden fish tail on his lower body was swaying in the water...
The sense of drawing is too strong, Qiao Xi already felt her throat was dry, her fingers were itchy, and she wished she could draw it immediately.
"Xixi!" In front of the camera, Lu Huoqiao's long eyelashes trembled slightly, covering up the shame in his eyes. He wished he could pull the girl out of the screen and knock her on the head. What was he thinking all day long!
Qiao Xi snorted, "You wait for me to come back."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room.
Qiao Xi walked over with her phone.
Outside the door stood the tall Huo Yu in a suit, his eyes naturally fell on Qiao Xi.
The girl changed her clothes. She was wearing a crow-colored blouse with buttons, her waist was slim and tall, her skin became whiter and more delicate, and her small face seemed to be affected by the environment here, making her more watery and charming.
Huo Yu's gaze deepened, and his mellow voice became a little hoarse, "Xiaoxi, it's time to go downstairs for dinner."
Qiao Xi nodded, "I see."
She bowed her head to Lu Huo in the camera and said, "I'll talk to you again tonight."
On the screen, Lu Huo's eyes dimmed, "Go."
He didn't know why Huo Yu would show up at her grandmother's house and be with her.
After hanging up the video, the sky outside the window gradually darkened.
Lu Huo looked down at his immobile legs. If he could walk normally, would he be able to stay with her all the time and not let others take advantage of it
On the wheelchair, the boy's figure was gradually submerged in darkness.
At this time, the door of the small house was pushed open, and Steward Lu came with someone.
Lu Huo's eyebrows were cold in the darkness.
It was about to rain, and the light in the small house was very dark. Butler Lu turned on the light, and the room became brighter.
"Master Huo, the master said that this place needs to be redecorated, and you have to move out of here temporarily." Steward Lu asked Lu Huo to pack his luggage.
Lu Huo was silent for a while, and he frowned, "Where are you going?"
Butler Lu said: "Master has prepared a place for you, now I will take you there."
