"I want to know if the child in my belly is still there."
Du Suxi sat on the soft toffee chair, looking at the people surrounding her, placing her right hand on her lower abdomen intentionally or unintentionally, and asked questions calmly.
"..." Zhong Lingxi and others looked at each other, then lowered their heads in tacit understanding, looking at the tips of their shoes, as if they didn't hear anything. in silence.
Time passed silently. There was still silence and no one answered.
Du Suxi seemed to have expected such a situation, looking at the people in front of her. The corners of his mouth curled up, trying to form a smile, but the smile he showed was a bit uglier than crying.
She sighed very softly, glanced at everyone's faces, and spoke softly.
"Even if you don't have the heart to tell me the truth, I will know it sooner or later. Maybe it's because I have no destiny with this child."
Now, Du Suxi finally admitted this fact.
The child she originally wanted to abort has now really left her, leaving her just after she made it clear that she wanted to be a mother.
In fact, everyone's reactions had already told Du Suxi the answer, but Du Suxi didn't want to believe it and would not give up until she got a definite answer.
Now, it can be considered as giving up.
Qingzhuang looked at Du Suxi like this and could no longer control her emotions. Looking at the calm face, she knelt down with a thud and sobbed.
"Miss, don't be like this. It's because Qingzhuang is not good. Miss wants to be beaten or punished. It's because of Qingzhuang. Even if Miss wants to kill Qingzhuang now, Qingzhuang will never frown. It's just Miss, you Don’t hold your anger in your heart. If you want to cry, just cry. Don’t let your anger break your body.”
After Qingzhuang said this, she could no longer hold back, and two lines of tears fell down, her face full of regret.
Du Suxi was still smiling, her eyes as bright as a starry night. It is impossible to see through the emotions hidden in the darkness.
"Qingzhuang, please get up. Since you were saved by me, your life belongs to me. If I don't want it, you have to keep it well for me. If you really plan to torture yourself, you I’m really sorry.”
Du Suxi's voice was clear and light, and although her little face under the candlelight was pale, it made people suddenly feel that she was extremely beautiful.
"Miss... you..." Qingzhuang raised her head and looked at Du Suxi at a loss.
Deep down in her heart, she was even prepared to be beaten and scolded by Du Suxi at will to vent her hatred. She had even decided that even if Du Suxi wanted to beat her to death, she would not fight back.
But she had calculated everything and was worried about countless situations, but she failed to guess this one. Even the beginning was wrong.
Du Suxi acted too calmly and didn't even mean to blame her. It made her feel even more guilty.
Du Suxi just raised her head and looked silently at the small scab formed by the blood on Qingzhuang's forehead. She vaguely remembered that it was the result of Qingzhuang's constant kowtow just now.
It seems that this little girl is feeling uncomfortable. Why bother using other people's mistakes to embarrass yourself
Du Suxi gave Qingzhuang a relieved smile, as if nothing had happened, and comforted her.
"You should go back and have a good rest. You also drowned a lot at that time. You should have a good rest and regain your strength. By the way, ask a doctor to take a good look at your forehead. If there are scars, it will not look good."
Du Suxi's carefulness and gentleness made Qingzhuang burst into tears again. She looked at Du Suxi and asked in disbelief.
"Miss, you, why don't you blame me, if, if it wasn't me..." If I hadn't fallen into the lake, you wouldn't have jumped down to save me...
Du Suxi looked at Qingzhuang's self-reproaching and aggrieved expression, sighed, stretched out her hand, and rubbed Qingzhuang's hair.
"I don't blame you for all this. If there is a next time, I will make the same choice again. Moreover, if I blame you, it will hurt my relatives and make my enemies happy. I know who my enemy is, and you should also think about it. Be clear about who caused this situation today. Instead of punishing yourself for the mistakes of others."
After a pause, Du Suxi raised her head and scanned everyone's face. The tone was not serious, but it hit everyone's hearts like a mountain.
"I hope that everyone in Moshang Xiangfang can afford it and put it down!"
Everyone was silent. Looking at the thin but extremely strong woman in front of her. A strange idea came to my mind.
Perhaps the luckiest thing in their lives is that they follow such a woman, right
Just as he was thinking about it, Du Suxi's eyes stayed on Zhong Lingxi, with approval in his eyes.
"Lingxi, you did a great job just now. None of us in Mo Shang Xiangfang can be bullied."
Zhong Lingxi was startled, she didn't expect that Du Suxi would praise herself, her cheeks turned slightly red, and she explained awkwardly.
"Sir, no, miss, I was so angry that I lost my mind just now, that's why I did that, miss made me laugh."
Du Suxi was slightly
As he smiled, the admiration in those beautiful eyes became even stronger.
"Lingxi, you can continue to call me young master from now on. Du Suxi of the Du family has died of illness. Where did the young lady come from? Besides, you did a good job. If I were you, I would do exactly the same as you."
"Miss, no, sir, are you telling the truth?" Zhong Lingxi raised his head in surprise, with a look of joy on his face. Looking at Du Suxi in disbelief, she didn't expect that Du Suxi would praise herself.
Zhong Lingxi was a person who never expressed his emotions or anger. Something that made her unable to help but feel happy was enough to prove the weight of this matter in her heart.
What's more, she admires Du Suxi very much. Now, this woman, who she considered to be a strange woman in the world, actually praised her and recognized her so much. How could she not be excited and happy
She originally thought that her behavior just now would make Du Suxi unhappy. After all, she was an outsider and the Du Qifeng she just faced was so rude.
After all, he was Du Suxi's brother.
However, she did not expect that Du Suxi would be so determined towards her brother. She doesn't care about any family affection at all, just like what she said.
If you can pick it up, you can put it down.
To be fair, Zhong Lingxi felt that when faced with this situation, her heart might soften, and she might really follow Du Qifeng back to the Du family under Du Qifeng's coercion and inducement. After all, the Du family is her home. No matter how much resentment there is, if the family scandal cannot be made public, it will only result in the loss of teeth and blood.
Du Suxi, on the other hand, resolutely rejected Du Qifeng in front of everyone, and even vowed to fight Du Yunxi until death. This courage is enough to put many men in the world to shame.
The longer she knew Du Suxi, the more Zhong Lingxi felt that Du Suxi was worthy of her admiration!
Du Suxi took in Zhong Lingxi's happy face, stood up, and walked to Zhong Lingxi, her expression became very solemn.
"Lingxi, maybe I want to ask you something."
Listening to Du Suxi's tone, Zhong Lingxi's expression became serious, she looked at Du Suxi seriously and said respectfully.
"Sir, please tell me, Lingxi doesn't dare to say anything arrogant, but he will definitely go all out!"
Zhong Lingxi's non-arrogant answer made Du Suxi nodded again, turned around and faced everyone. He spoke.
"From today on, I announce that Moshang Xiangfang will be in charge of Zhong Lingxi and Mrs. Le."
"Master, you..."
Zhong Lingxi's eyes widened and she looked at Du Suxi in surprise. She didn't expect that this was what Du Suxi said. She immediately knelt down and looked at Du Suxi and said seriously.
"Young Master, please take back your life. Lingxi is just a girl from a mountain village. The current situation is all thanks to the Master. Lingxi is already satisfied. I don't dare to expect too much. Please take back your life."
Listening to Zhong Lingxi's polite refusal, Du Suxi sighed deeply and smiled bitterly.
"Lingxi, if you don't want to accept it, are you going to let me, a sick man, take over the management? Aren't you bullying me?"
At this time, Du Suxi was still in the mood to joke.
Zhong Lingxi looked at Du Suxi standing in front of him, a look of hesitation flashed on his face.
Du Suxi seemed to expect that Zhong Lingxi would say this, and the wry smile on her face became even stronger. He continued helplessly.
"Lingxi, I believe you now know my identity and what kind of existence the Du family is. I give Moshang Xiangfang to you not for fun, but to truly shoulder this burden and turn this place into a real one." Everyone is trying to take care of themselves. Do you understand?"
Zhong Lingxi was startled. Looking at Du Suxi's trusting eyes, her heart softened. She also understood that Du Suxi was right. She took a deep breath and stopped refusing. She raised her head solemnly and looked at Du Suxi. Su Xi said firmly.
"Lingxi fortunately lives up to his destiny!"
Seeing Zhong Lingxi agree, a sincere smile appeared on Du Suxi's face. On that pale face, it was like magic, like spring buds sprouting, and it could be called a smile like a flower.
"Next month, I will definitely attend Master Zaifu's fiftieth birthday. Lingxi, please help me prepare some gifts. Although I am going to cause trouble, I can't disgrace the reputation of Moshang Xiangfang."
Lingxi was startled. Then nodded. But in my heart, I admired Du Suxi even more.
How brave is this woman? She seems to be not afraid of anything.
After speaking to comfort everyone for a while, Du Suxi curled her lips and smiled faintly. She looked at everyone with a look of exhaustion on her face and waved her hand.
"I'm a little tired. You all go down. I want to talk to He Lianheng."
From the beginning to the end, He Lianheng just kept watching Du Suxi and listening to all her decisions. Although he looked calm on the surface, he admired Du Suxi more and more in his heart.
There was only a few contacts between them. But every time, Du Suxi could surprise and surprise him. As a prince, he is deeply favored by the Holy Spirit. It can be said that every woman in the world wants to marry him.
Only Du Suxi, this woman, has always been strong enough to tell him an answer. Women are not just dependent on men. Women also have the ability to carve out their own world.
Everyone retreated quietly. Du Suxi looked at He Lianheng calmly. There was no wave in his tone.
"I remember that when I was in Pisces Valley, Old Man Pisces once told me that the baby in my belly and I have the same hands and feet, and are closely related. Now that it is gone, it is impossible for me to have nothing to do, and I can feel it. , my health seems to be very poor, maybe I will die at any time, right?"
Her tone was still slow, without the slightest sense of sadness of a dying person, as if she was telling someone else's story. But He Lianheng felt a little uncomfortable.
He Lianheng turned his head and avoided Du Suxi's gaze on him. This made me feel better, and I forced myself to look disdainful and reproached.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could you die? Master was just lying to you. How could you really die? You, stop thinking about it. You have nothing to say about whether you will die or not. Didn't you promise it? Me, if I gain the position of emperor, will you marry me? I don’t like your current tone!"
After He Lianheng said this, his breathing became heavier and heavier. Apparently, he felt guilty.
Du Suxi looked at the panicked He Lianheng in front of her and smiled lightly.
"You can't lie to me."
“…”
Du Suxi laughed louder and louder.
"Do I look that stupid? You can't tell a lie, how can you lie to me?"
"..." He Lianheng raised his head, looked at Du Suxi's still clear and watery eyes, and sighed. "Du Suxi, sometimes I really hate your cleverness."
"Really? Me too." Du Suxi smiled bitterly and her eyes darkened.
"Tell me honestly, how long can I live?"
"I don't know." He Lianheng lowered his head and deliberately avoided Du Suxi's gaze, with a look of embarrassment on his face. Du Suxi was startled. Then he spoke with relief.
"It's okay if I don't know. At least I can survive to the maximum extent. There is no psychological pressure."
"Can I ask you a favor?"
"Help me take good care of Mo Shang Xiang Fang. If one day Mo Shang Xiang Fang can no longer hold on, you can send them all away. Living is better than anything else."
He Lianheng listened silently. Finally couldn't help it. Looking at the woman who never panicked and faced everything calmly, I felt the urge to hold her in my arms. However, he still held back, raised his head, and tried to smile and relax.
"Du Suxi, are you going to tell me your last words now?"
"Maybe." Du Suxi actually admitted it openly. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he was immediately interrupted by He Lianheng.
"If there really is such a day, you can tell me then. If you dare to say anything now, I will definitely not agree."
"..." Du Suxi looked silently at He Lianheng who was gritting his teeth, but really didn't say anything more. Only then did He Lianheng feel relieved. Looking at Du Suxi's affirmation through gritted teeth.
"Du Suxi, don't worry, I will never let you die."
Du Suxi just smiled and didn't answer, which was considered a response.
At this time, Du Suxi suddenly realized that it seemed difficult to define her relationship with He Lianheng.
This man, from the beginning, was like a knight in a fairy tale, always helping her but never asking for anything in return. After thinking about it, Du Suxi asked sheepishly.
"He Lianheng, actually, you are so good to me, so good that I don't even know what to do."
"In that case, have you ever heard of a sentence?" He Lianheng raised his eyebrows. He returned to his usual casual and romantic demeanor and smiled evilly.
"What?"
"The little girl has nothing to repay, she can only pledge herself to her."
"He Lianheng, can't you be serious?" Du Suxi frowned, but still couldn't help being amused by He Lianheng.
The originally tense atmosphere finally relaxed a lot.
But both of them knew in their hearts that this was just a psychological comfort.
"Du Suxi, is what you said true? Do you really want to cause trouble in the Du family?"
After the two of them laughed, He Lianheng finally couldn't help asking and looked at Du Suxi with a worried look. Du Suxi smiled gracefully, looked at He Lianheng, raised his eyebrows, and smiled. He opened his mouth and said.
"Do you think I am the kind of magnanimous person who can let things go?"
He Lianheng paused, pretending to be deep in thought. Answered in the affirmative.
"It's not like that. In this world, in terms of cruelty and ruthlessness, there are few people in the world who can compare to a woman like Du Suxi."
"He Lianheng..." Du Suxi's face darkened, and she gritted her teeth and stared at He Lianheng hatefully. But all he could hear was He Lianheng's hearty laughter.
If you are drunk today if you have wine today, don't let the golden bottle stand empty against the moon. The two people's minds at this time were actually very similar and open-minded.
