Candy cubes crackling

Late at night, Zhou Mansion.

Lu Liuyun couldn't sleep because of his worries, so he curled up under the quilt and baked pancakes with his eyes open.

"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Hengxi's calm voice came from beside his ears, and the person beside him was obviously not sleepy at all.

"I can't tell, I'm in a mess." Lu Liuyun and him lay side by side facing each other. The room was dimly lit, and they couldn't see each other's faces clearly. Only the sound of warm breathing was heard one after another.

"Come here, I'll hold you." After Zhou Hengxi finished speaking, he lifted the quilt and pulled Lu Liuyun into his arms.Lu Liuyun felt a little uncomfortable when he got up from the bed at first, but he quickly regained his warmth after pressing his body against Zhou Hengxi's hot chest.

"Don't be afraid." Zhou Hengxi sighed silently in his heart, whether it was for your eldest sister or for yourself.

Zhou Hengxi held Lu Liuyun firmly with his right hand, while his left hand passed under his ribs and stuck to his back to comfort him.He felt very insecure when he lost his father when he was a child. In the vague impression that remained, his mother coaxed him like this.In a sense, he and Lu Liuyun have a kind of sympathy for each other.For example, worrying about gains and losses, or the loneliness engraved in the bones, only each other can fill the void that is missing in each other's hearts.

"Now I am luckier than eldest sister."

However, who can tell what will happen in the future, Lu Liuyun quietly buried the second half of the sentence in his heart.

Lu Liuyun curled up into a small ball in Zhou Hengxi's arms, her slender eyelashes were like soft butterfly wings, silently fluttering back and forth in the darkness, "Zhou Hengxi, if I..."

"No if, you are mine." A kiss was gently printed on Lu Liuyun's forehead, his forehead was itchy as if a feather had been rubbed against it.

"Did you hear the sound of my heartbeat?" The beat in Zhou Hengxi's hand didn't stop, and it fell gently on Lu Liuyun's back again and again, "It's telling you that my attitude is very firm and I don't need too much effort." Suppose."

Lu Liuyun stretched out his hand and tightly wrapped around Zhou Hengxi's waist. The embrace of the man beside him was his only heat source in the dark, and it was also the greatest blessing in his heart.

The next day, a rare visitor came to the Marshal's Mansion.Marshal Lu's son-in-law Zhang Chuwen, who was far away in Nanjing, secretly blocked his travel news and arrived in Tianjin silently by train.Marshal Lu and this young and promising eldest son-in-law have been doing their own thing all year round, and have maintained a military peer relationship with each other. They never expected to meet in such an embarrassing situation one day.

"Father." After a long silence, Zhang Chuwen took the initiative to break the silence between the two, "Did Rong Rong mention me when she came home?"

"Grandpa, I'm a rough talker, so I won't play around with you." Marshal Lu smiled wryly as he sat on the chair, "Since you all signed the divorce agreement, why bother to ask about it."

"I want to have a chat with her face to face." Zhang Chuwen lowered his eyes quietly with his long heroic eyebrows drawn back.

"Then let's talk about it when we find someone." Marshal Lu weakly raised his hand and rubbed his aching temple, "After Rong Rong quarreled with me yesterday, she sneaked away with the child while no one was looking. Now I We can only be sure that she hasn't had time to leave Tianjin yet."

"What!" Zhang Chuwen was shocked when he heard the words, his handsome brows were locked by the dense clouds on his face, he hurriedly got up to bid farewell to Yue Zhang, and strode out of Lu's house.

Early in the morning, when Lu Yarong woke up, she found that the bed was empty, and Cong Tang who was sleeping next to her had disappeared, so she hurriedly put on her coat and ran out to find someone.When she walked out of the bedroom, she suddenly heard laughter and laughter from the tea room on the second floor. When she touched the door and looked around, she found Cong Tang and Wen Xiang sitting at a small table, each with a handful of cards in their hands .

"Mom." Seeing his mother yelling happily, Cong Tang quickly put down the cards in his hand, ran up and hugged Lu Yarong's leg.

"Mislo, your young master is so smart. You can know the numbers on these cards after just one lesson." Wen Xiang saw Lu Yarong coming, and praised Cong Tang full of thumbs up.

"Mom, Cong Tang knows that playing poker is not a good habit. My sister and I are only playing blackjack, so we haven't learned from bad habits."

Cong Tang was taught very well by Lu Yarong, knowing that gambling is not a good thing.Because my mother saw me holding a hand just now, I was a little guilty and afraid of being misunderstood, so I quickly opened my mouth to defend.Lu Yarong felt relieved when she saw that her son was very young and knew how to control the situation.

"Mislo is up, Madam asked me to call you down for breakfast."

Xiao Lian brought the porridge that Cong Tang ate upstairs, smiled and said to Lu Yarong angrily, "Don't worry, leave it to us, I see you didn't have much appetite yesterday, let go and eat better today stop."

"Mom, hurry up and go downstairs to eat." Cong Tang obediently sat back on the small table, picked up a shrimp dumpling and blew it on a small plate, blinked and said to Wen Xiang and Xiao Lian, "Sister, don't feed me." I, Cong Tang, can use chopsticks by myself."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the soft little milk voice melted the hearts of the three women in the room.

Lu Yarong cleaned herself up and went downstairs, Madam Xue was sitting in the dining room waiting for her.On the long table are porridge and cake snacks that warm the stomach and are very healthy.

"My house is very empty now, but I don't have enough food to eat. Don't come to save food for me anymore."

Mrs. Xue got up early to take a shower because there was a banquet that needed to be attended today.Now that her hair has not been completely dried, she joked to Lu Yarong with the feeling of dampness on the ends of her hair.

"Okay." Lu Yarong picked up the bowl with a smile, knowing her intentions very well.

Both beauties were born as ladies and have been taught the rules.When eating the porridge, it is very quiet, without making a "Susu" sip sound, just carefully put it into the mouth with a spoon, and firmly pinch the corners with your fingertips to prevent it from hitting the wall of the bowl and making a crisp sound.

Halfway through the meal, Xiao Lian hurried in from the door to deliver a message.

"Ma'am, there is a phone call."

"Did Mr. Sanada come to invite you?" Mrs. Xue put down the bowl and asked.

Xiao Lian shook her head lightly, quickly looked in Lu Yarong's direction, and gave Madame Xue a wink.Mrs. Xue nodded knowingly, and instructed her indifferently, "Go and tell me, the family is busy now, and I will call back personally later."

Lu Yarong didn't care about other people's private affairs, so she didn't interrupt her, she just lowered her head and ate her porridge quietly.

Mrs. Xue went first after dinner, went to the bedroom and called back the phone, a man's low and polite greeting came from the receiver.

"Ma'am, stay safe."

"General Zhang, I can't afford it." Mrs. Xue smiled lowly, and answered the words very naturally, guessing that Zhang Chuwen must be in Tianjin.

Sure enough, the next second, Zhang Chuwen responded on the other end of the phone, "Mrs. Zhang's wife and children have been bothering her for a long time, and please forgive me if it's too much trouble."

Mrs. Xue was not surprised that he was able to figure out the whereabouts of the mother and son. Lu Yarong's social circle is only that big, and if he arranges the list in Tianjin, it will be a matter of time before he finds someone.

"General Zhang is serious. I am too happy to have a guest welcome me. How can I find it troublesome?" Madam Xue was not in a hurry to follow his words, and deliberately pulled her focus to test Zhang Chuwen's attitude.

"Madam, if it's convenient, could you ask Rong Rong to come over and listen to the phone?" Zhang Chuwen took a deep breath, and there was a plea in his words.

"I can ask for you, but she has to be willing to answer it or not." Mrs. Xue spoke to the point. After Zhang Chuwen thanked her and said yes, she patiently held the receiver on the other end of the phone. wait.

When Lu Yarong got the news downstairs, she was slightly startled, feeling troubled.She didn't want to see him again, but she didn't expect this person to be so stubborn, and actually entangled the phone with Madam Xue, she was really bored.

Thinking of this, Lu Yarong was afraid that after hanging up the phone, Zhang Chuwen would directly come to the door to embarrass people, so she used the auxiliary phone downstairs to connect the call, and said in a cold tone, "Zhang Chuwen, don't go too far, since it's already peaceful Separate, why bother to be aggressive now?"

"Rong Rong, if you insist on avoiding her, I won't let you go." Although Zhang Chuwen's tone was calm, his attitude in his words was tough and stubborn, and he didn't give Lu Yarong a chance to refuse.

Hearing a soft sigh from the other end of the phone, Lu Yarong suppressed her unhappiness, and replied in a muffled voice, "Well, I'll see you for the last time, so that you can see the truth clearly so you can let go, and don't need to pester others anymore."

Zhang Chuwen was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and at the end, he answered "Yes" in a gentle tone.

An hour later, Lu Yarong took the hitchhiking car of Madam Xue and went to meet Zhang Chuwen at the agreed place.Before getting out of the car, Mrs. Xue patted the back of Lu Yarong's hand lightly, and said relievedly for her, "It's okay to explain it clearly, as long as you don't get angry with him, why bother if we both suffer."

Lu Yarong nodded absently. She glanced outside just now and happened to see Zhang Chuwen waiting at the door of the coffee shop.The tall and straight figure of the man came into view, and it was like a mess in her mind, easily repelling the calmness she had been brewing for a long time.

I can't tell, I don't know the way, but I just feel uncomfortable.

"Rongrong, you lost weight."

Zhang Chuwen laughed when he saw her coming, and wanted to step forward to hold Lu Yarong's hand, but she escaped.

"Respect yourself." Lu Yarong lowered her eyes, ignored his overtures, and said, "Go in and talk about business."

Zhang Chuwen didn't mind her indifference, and after Mrs. Xue's car drove away, he hugged Lu Yarong who was walking towards the coffee shop, took her into his car without any explanation, and ordered the guards to drive.

"what's wrong with you?"

Seeing his actions like this, Lu Yarong was both startled and angry, but still unable to break free, she slapped him out in desperation.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Chuwen was on guard, grabbed Lu Yarong's wrist, stopped the slap in the air, raised his eyebrows, and approached with a handsome face, "Rongrong, it's my fault for wronging you, but you never Not giving people a chance to think about their mistakes would be too cruel to me."

Lu Yarong sneered, and said, "Zhang Chuwen, even if the one who danced with me was not Mrs. Xue dressed as a man, this marriage is just a transaction. What are you expecting?"

Zhang Chuwen frowned and suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at her uncertainly until his thin lips were drawn into a line, then turned his head and yelled at the driving guard, "Stop!"

With a sudden brake, the car stopped in front of the National Hotel, Zhang Chuwen clasped Lu Yarong's hands backwards and forcibly hugged her in.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he threw a roll of banknotes at the front desk, took the house number from the table, and went upstairs to open the room by himself.

"You lunatic!" Lu Yarong cried out in shock as she was pushed down on the big bed by him, and immediately began to kick vigorously, but Zhang Chuwen wrapped one leg around her waist instead, making her more controlled by others.

Lu Yarong suffered such humiliation, her eyes were clouded with water vapor, she turned her face away to avoid his kiss, and bit her lower lip tightly.Seeing Lu Yarong's pale face, Zhang Chuwen stopped his hand in front of the last button of her cheongsam, did not continue to move down, and loosened her restraint very restrainedly.

"When we've had enough trouble, let's talk." He put on the coat for Lu Yarong.

"What's the difference between your behavior and a despicable robber." Lu Yarong shook off Zhang Chuwen's hand with red eyes, and struggled to the ground, not thinking that she still needed to communicate with him.

"Is that why you look down on me?" Zhang Chuwen hugged her from behind, and said sadly, "Rongrong, I've been looking for you for a long time, don't leave."

"Please spare me, General."

Hearing this, Zhang Chuwen felt his hands stagnate and his heart throbbed. Lu Yarong said exactly the same thing to him on their wedding night six years ago.

"Now that the Zhang family has a stable political position, there is no need to form an alliance with our Lu family. You don't lack women by your side, so you can choose someone who will give birth to a new heir willingly for you," Lu Yarong gently stroked her flat belly, He said with a blank face, "If you can't come by force, don't continue to force it."

"Why don't you believe it? It's you that I'm looking for." Zhang Chuwen gritted his teeth and tightened his arms, wishing to strangle the woman in his arms to the depths of his flesh and blood, so that she could see his sincerity.

"Because I will be in more pain." Lu Yarong smiled miserably, "You broke into my life and ruined my dreams, and imprisoned me in the body of the general's wife so I can't breathe, and now I can still be so righteous, don't you think Disgusting?"

"You go."

Zhang Chuwen couldn't hold her tighter anymore, Lu Yarong's tears hit the back of his hand drop by drop, so hot that he couldn't stretch out his arms to hold her back.The sound of high-heeled shoes tapped in the room, and the hem of Lu Yarong's clothes when he got up and left brought a gust of cold wind on his face.When Zhang Chuwen recovered from his thoughts, the door was closed with a "click".

He lay down heavily on the bed, feeling tired when those who missed her thought about her.

Lu Yarong hurriedly fled the scene like a guilty conscience, the tears on her face were still wet.The weather outside was fine, the sun was shining brightly in the blue sky, making people feel warm.But her palms were cold, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead standing in the sun in broad daylight.Lu Yarong gritted her teeth, insisted on keeping her feet steady and wanted to call a car to go to the hospital, but unfortunately the light and shadow in front of her eyes gradually blurred, and there was only a muffled sound, and she had already fallen to the ground.
