Adorable Baby: CEO’s Amnesiac Ex-wife - Chapter 67
On the weekend, a young couple sat opposite each other in a hot pot restaurant.
Xiao Shixian took off his suit jacket and tied his tie loosely. He rarely dressed up so casually.
He was sitting across from Judy, the boss of the company, who was also Zhu Ruidi.
At this moment, Ruidi was eating a hot pot with a bowl of spicy miso in front of her, and in front of Xiao Shixian was the most commonly seen miso in the north. Xiao Shixian picked up a piece of cabbage and put it into his bowl. He looked at Ruidi and said, “Every time you ask me to treat you to a meal, it’s always a hotpot, and it has to be a genuine Chongqing hotpot. Even if you can eat spicy dishes, there’s no need to keep tormenting me like this.
Xiao Shixian didn’t even have to eat much before he was badly spicy. He was going to ask the waiter to serve him a bowl of porridge, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to eat well tonight.
Ruidi had just finished a piece of beef when he smiled and said, “Senior Brother, you asked me to help you. After I help you, you have to treat me to a meal, and I’m free to choose.”
Xiao Shixian waved his hand helplessly and said, “Forget it, I don’t think I can argue with you about this.”
Zhu Ruidi laughed, “The great Director Xiao, you can do anything you want with a single sentence, how can you not argue with me? I don’t think you have the right to argue with me over such matters.”
After finishing his meal, Zhu Rudi pretended to be very curious and asked: “Senior Brother, what is your relationship with Ke Wei? I’ve never seen you go through so much trouble for a woman. ” Although she said this, she felt very bitter inside.
Xiao Shixian was a typical workaholic who came from a family like that. Some things were beyond his control, especially when he had been overseas for the past few years. He had been busy all day, so how could he have the time to date? This was also the reason why Ruidi hadn’t shown his intentions in all these years, but was still willing to maintain their current relationship. However, with Lu Kewei’s appearance, she suddenly felt that Xiao Shixian was not like that.
Of course, Xiao Shixian would not tell Ruidi about his family’s secret. He only replied, “It’s a matter of the previous generation, I came to Lu Kewei to plead for a favor from her, but she obviously didn’t want to, so I didn’t want to just let it go.”
After hearing this, Ruidi did not ask anymore. She understood Xiao Shixian’s personality, so she would not ask anymore. She might as well just shut up.
After leaving the hotpot restaurant, Ruidi said that she ate too much and insisted that Xiao Shixian accompany her around the restaurant for a walk before driving home. Xiao Shixian originally came out tonight to thank her. As long as her request was not too excessive, he would of course listen to her.
In the hotpot restaurant just now, there was a clamor of voices, and a lot of sweat from eating the hotpot. Now that the wind was blowing, Zhu Ruidi felt that his brain was much clearer, and he also remembered her clearer and clearer answer. He couldn’t help but slowly walk with Xiao Shixian and ask, “Senior Brother, are you still not ready to get married?”
Xiao Shixian replied, “No, it’s just that the timing is not right. “I’ve been in France so long, and if I really marry a girl as my family wishes, wouldn’t that be harming?”
Zhu Ruidi hurriedly asked again, “Then you have already returned to your home country, and the time you mentioned should be ripe as well. Are you still not going to consider it?”
Xiao Shixian laughed, “My grandmother acknowledged that I was able to return so smoothly. She is anxious now and wants me to come back and get married and have children. But if you think about it that way, there just happens to be someone waiting there. ”
At this moment, Ruidi mustered all her courage and said, “Senior Brother, you clearly know that there’s someone waiting for you.”
Xiao Shixian stopped walking and looked at her seriously, “Rudi, if it’s possible, we would have been together for a long time. It won’t be until now, do you understand what I mean?”
Ruidi felt like he had fallen into an icehouse. He had obviously guessed the answer a long time ago, but he was still determined to ask. She was already an elite in the industry, a White Bone Spirit. Yet in terms of love, she was like a teenage girl, foolishly waiting for so many years. “Of course I understand what you mean, but I still carry unrealistic fantasies with me,” said Rudi with a smile. “That’s good too. Now she won’t even have any illusions.
Xiao Shixian felt his heart ache as he comforted her: “Rudi, no matter if it’s reading or working, you are always so outstanding. It will be difficult for you to find a better partner, right? Some things are not that you’re not good enough, it’s just that you’re not suitable. You’re so smart, it’s impossible that you don’t understand. ”
Understanding is one thing, and doing it is another. She lowered her head to adjust her stiff face. When she raised her head again, she said, “Senior Martial Brother, we should go back now. It’s getting late.”
Xiao Shixian walked a few steps away from her and asked, “Do you want me to send you back first?”
Zhu Ruidi hurriedly shook his head and said, “No need, we both drove our cars, and we were heading in the wrong direction, so there’s no need to go through all this trouble.” No matter what kind of feelings he had for himself, he always acted like a polite gentleman.
Xiao Shixian nodded and did not force her. After all, she might still feel uncomfortable if she did not show anything on the surface.
After waving goodbye, they went to the parking lot and drove home.
When Ruidi drove to an intersection and hit the brakes, he happened to see the dazzling LED screen of the shopping mall next to the street. There was a jewel on the screen and the actress happily put on her ring.
She stared at the screen in a daze for a long time. Finally, her tears flowed. In the end, she and Xiao Shixian were fated to be together. At first, she didn’t dare to confess because of Xiao Shixian’s family inferiority. But later on, her mother knew that she shouldn’t think too much into it. The most important thing was whether that man loved her or not. However, the answer was that she didn’t love him, so it was time for her to let go of her obsession.
A few days later, Lu Ke and Qin Kui made a phone call. Just like before, the two of them talked to each other for a while, explaining the current situation of each other. When Qin Zheng heard her question, she lost her patience and replied, “My body is still the same as always. You don’t have to worry. There’s really something. I have a little Plum by my side.” She laughed, “Right now, Little Mei seems more like my granddaughter.”
As he said this, Lu Kewei couldn’t help but advise, “Aunt, think about living with me back home. I’m really worried about you staying out here all this time.”
Qin Zheng laughed: “I’ve been living abroad for so many years. I don’t think I’m used to coming back. You don’t have to worry about me. Little Mei comes to see me every now and then. ” If she really had to live with the Lu family and see Su Hongyu, she would not want to.
Lu Kewei exchanged a few more pleasantries with Qin Zheng. He was about to hang up, but in the end, he couldn’t help but tell her about his recent encounter with Xiao Shixian, as well as Xiao Shixian’s desire to accompany her back to see his grandmother.
After hearing this, Qin Zheng muttered to herself for a while before saying, “Ke Wei, after you returned to your country to pay your respects to Yun Feng, I didn’t sleep for the entire night. Not long after, I dreamed about him again, knowing that despite all the years I had been thinking about him, I had rarely dreamed about him. ” Saying that, he paused again before continuing, “The scene inside the dream was from my university. The dream was very short, it was him sitting next to me, smiling as he told me to eat more and take care of his body. I clearly wanted to say something to him, but the dream ended just like that.”
Lu Kexin quietly listened to what Qin Zheng was saying. It was clearly an extremely ordinary tone, but she could clearly hear the sadness in her voice.
Qin Zheng seemed to recall his memories, “Not long after the news of his death came out, his mother came over, and she is Xiao Shixian’s grandmother. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty years had passed, but I still remember the scene back then. The white-haired man giving away the black-haired man was probably the most tragic thing in the world. I thought I was sad enough, and when I saw that, I knew there was someone more upset than I was. ”
Lu Kexin vaguely understood what she meant and could not help but ask, “Aunt, you want me to go see Xiao Shixian’s grandmother? Or do you want to come back and see her? ”
Qin Zheng immediately replied: “I don’t plan to meet her, but it’s not that I’m afraid she’ll blame me. It’s been so many years, and I really don’t want to return home. I didn’t want you to meet his mother because I’m feeling guilty. What happened that year was something that no one wanted to see, and there were simply too many coincidences that caused that accident to happen. I believe that even Yun Feng wouldn’t wish for me to be stuck in self-blame forever. ”
Qin Zheng continued to explain, “I want you to go see his mother, but I was thinking that Yun Feng would leave so early. If you didn’t meet Xiao Shixian, I will be satisfied if you help me pay my respects to Yun Feng. Since what happened afterwards, you can do what you want, it’s good for you to pacify my heart. ”
Lu Kewei completely understood what Qin Zheng meant. In the end, they were all sentimental people. Since ancient times, love had always been a tragedy. However, the person who spoke was Qin Zheng. She naturally had to listen to everything she said, so she could only agree. However, after hanging up the phone, Lu Kewei had a nasty thought. Even if she agreed to Xiao Shixian’s request due to Qin Zheng, she would only agree to him when he took the initiative to contact her.
In the evening, Lu Kewei told Song Zixiu about Qin Zheng’s intentions, but Song Zixiu was clearly unhappy.
“Song Zixiu, this is my aunt’s decision. I don’t want to interact too much with Xiao Shixian.” Of course she knew what Song Zixiu really cared about.
Song Zi Xiu sighed, “Ke Wei, I may be really stingy, but I would love to have you tied to me anytime and anywhere. Xiao Shixian feels that there is a stronger person than An Ran, I really don’t want you to stay with him any longer. I also don’t want you to be at a disadvantage in her hands, and even more so, I’m afraid that you will be wronged. ”
“I will protect myself. Besides, aunty did indeed make a mistake all those years ago. Even if grandmother Xiao Shixian really doesn’t like me, I can’t do anything about it. Right now, it’s not because I promised Xiao Shixian that I would help aunt fulfil her wish. You also know that my aunt is important to me. ”
As soon as Lu Kewei mentioned Qin Zheng, Song Zixiu became even more interested. With an unfriendly tone, he said, “Of course I know how important she is to you. At that time, just a word from her is enough for you to break up with me.”
“It was like that in the beginning, but later on, didn’t someone kidnap me and I was even taken back to the country?”
Song Zixiu clearly had a smile on his face, but he resisted the urge to haggle with her. “Lu Kewei, don’t expect me to just let it go like this. You’re just carrying me on your back and getting along with other men.”
Lu Kewei bit his lips, narrowed his eyes and said, “Song Zixiu, if you’re sure you want to discuss this with me, then I hope you can tell me about you and Mo Yao back then. I’ll definitely listen very seriously.”
