Adorable Baby: CEO’s Amnesiac Ex-wife - Chapter 70
Lu Kewei looked at Xiao Shixian subconsciously, then walked to stand beside the old lady.
The old lady was unhappy again. “It’s not like I’m going to eat you and sit by my side.”
He moved like a child, then sat down on the wooden chair beside the old woman.
The old lady then waved her hand towards Xiao Shixian, “Big grandson, you can leave. I would like to talk to her alone.”
Xiao Shixian nodded and gave Lu Kewei a reassured look before walking out of the specially opened greenhouse.
The old lady’s face was full of wrinkles and blotches. She looked at Lu Kewei and asked, “Do you know about your aunt and my eldest son?”
“I’ve heard it from my aunt.”
The old lady continued, “When I first found out about my eldest son’s death, I really wanted to tear your aunt into a thousand pieces. Yun Feng clearly has a great future, yet he gave up everything within the country for your aunt. I couldn’t accept it from the start. In order to be with your aunt, he paid a price that was almost completely unrelated to his family, and in the end even died due to an accident to your aunt. ” Her voice sounded calm, but he could feel her great emotional turmoil.
As he listened to her words, he didn’t know what to say.
The old lady was silent for a moment, then asked, “How is your aunt?”
“It shouldn’t be considered good, nor is it bad. She has a bit of a reputation in the arts circles of Europe, but she has never gotten married.”
The old lady said in understanding, “In the end, she still feels guilty.”
“Auntie didn’t stay married forever because of guilt. But she did have a relationship with Uncle Xiao, and in the end, she has gone through thick and thin, so how could she still be together with other people? As for the matter between her and Uncle Xiao, from the beginning, it was both your wish and mine. You said that Uncle Xiao had broken off all ties with her family. That year, aunty took responsibility for both of them. She clearly had a family, but she couldn’t go back to them.
The old lady’s expression turned cold as she mockingly said, “I think your Qin family has the same eloquence as the Qin family, they have a bunch of nonsense.”
Lu Kewei lowered his gaze as he thought about Qin Zheng’s words. He could only endure the old lady’s uncertain attitude in front of him.
Xiao Yunfeng’s death had always been a wound in the old lady’s heart that could not be touched or healed. Now that it was completely exposed to Lu Kewei, she became more and more hysterical, and her emotions also started to get out of control, “You can put it very nicely, but whether I have lost a son or the eldest son of my Xiao family, none of you can understand the sadness in my heart.”
Lu Ke Wei sighed, and couldn’t help but ask: “Grandma Xiao, have you thought about it? It’s hard for you to see off the black-haired person, but you have a bunch of family with you. My aunt is the only one from the beginning to the end. No one can understand the sadness in her heart. Also, my aunt has been relieved for so many years, there’s no need for you to keep pursuing this matter, and there’s even less need to hate my aunt. If my aunt were to die, she could be exchanged for Uncle Xiao. I think she would do that, but you and I both know that it is impossible. ”
The old lady gradually calmed down, no one knew what she was thinking.
“My health is getting worse. I estimate that it won’t be long before I go to accompany Yun Feng.” The old lady said without any emotion.
He continued, “If Grandmother Xiao only wants to see my aunt suffer or suffer retribution, then my aunt has already suffered enough torture. In the past twenty years, all of her relatives and loved ones except me had gone, and she was still alone. No matter what, you don’t have to hate my aunt anymore. ”
The old lady sighed and said tiredly, “You can go.”
Lu Kewei sat there quietly for a while, unsure of what the old lady’s attitude was.
He got up and wanted to leave, but he stopped when he thought of Qin Zheng’s words. Instead, he walked back to the old lady, squatted down, and held her hands that were as old as the roots of a tree.
“Grandma Xiao, Uncle Xiao has already passed away for so many years. In this emotional world, there has never been anyone who owed anyone. Now that twenty years have passed, you should let it go. My aunt wasn’t wrong, and Uncle Xiao wasn’t wrong either. It’s just that the two of them didn’t have a satisfactory ending. Your family background is so good, and your descendants are so talented. You obviously have your way with things, but why do you insist on holding on to such an unpleasant matter? ”
Only then did the old lady open her eyes and pull out her hand from Lu Kewei’s. She turned her head away without looking at her, “Go, I’m tired. I want to go back and rest. Let Shixian send you out.”
Not long after the old lady finished talking, a servant came to help her away. Xiao Shixian also appeared in front of Lu Kewei at the right time.
As soon as he saw Xiao Shixian, he shrugged and said, “I’ve already done my best. As for how much your grandma listens to, or even if she doesn’t get it, it’s not something I can control.”
Xiao Shixian nodded and remembered the expression on her face when she met the old lady. He must have been moved by it and said, “Regardless of the outcome, I am very grateful to you this time. I also hope that she will not have to pass away without letting go of this matter.”
“I hope she can understand your intentions. A living person doesn’t need to be worried about a person who has passed away for many years. However, she should put down her determination.”
As the two spoke, they walked outside. It was only when Xiao Shixian and Lu Kewei got into the car that Lu Kewei noticed that he did not ask for a driver. Seeing that it was getting late, she also wanted to go home quickly.
Xiao Shixian suddenly found a topic to talk to him. “The Gaelic language you learned in England?”
“I didn’t know what to learn at that time, but it just so happened that I didn’t have a foreign language that I was proficient in besides English, so I learned it out of boredom. Aunt was originally from the Arts Academy, so I have a lot to talk about with her. ”
“I was surprised when I heard you and Amanda speaking Gaelic.” Xiao Shixian said with a rare smile.
Lu Kewei was somewhat speechless. “It can’t be that only people like you who work in foreign affairs can know some small languages, right?”
Xiao Shixian shook his head and laughed, “You know that’s not what I meant.” He turned his head to look at her, “It’s just possible that you’re different from all the women I’ve met before. I can’t tell you exactly what’s different, but I can’t say for sure.”
Lu Kewei felt the atmosphere had become a little weird. He didn’t know how to reply to Xiao Shixian’s words, so he pretended as if he didn’t hear what Xiao Shixian said. He turned his head to look at the flashing neon light outside the window.
Xiao Shixian also realized that he had misspoken. After all, the person beside him was already married, so he should have been more careful with his words. He quickly changed the topic: “Although I’ve already said that, I still want to say it again, my grandma is really grateful today. I believe it will definitely be helpful to her.”
“I also hope that’s the case, or else I’ll fail to live up to aunt’s expectations.”
Fortunately, Xiao Shixian’s house was not too far from the Lu Kewei’s apartment. In addition, it was already past the peak hours, so there wasn’t much traffic in the imperial city. Soon, they arrived at the Lu Kewei’s house.
As soon as they arrived, Lu Kewei bade farewell to Xiao Shixian, who thanked him and wanted to get off immediately. After the car door was opened, Xiao Shixian also got off. Just as he was about to ask him to go back to the car, a familiar male voice came from behind him, “Kewei, I’m here.”
Lu Kewei turned around and saw that it was Song Zixiu. He happily walked over to his side and knew that he had followed him after reading the text message. Once again, he was moved by the man’s concern.
Song Zixiu and Xiao Shixian met face to face, so he wanted to say a few words. Xiao Shixian looked at Song Zixiu with a smile that was not a smile, “Zixiu, I don’t think you and your son are willing to be separated for even a second.
Song Zixiu unexpectedly replied without any hesitation, “That’s true, don’t you know how much effort I put in to get her.”
Seeing him speak in such a manner in front of an outsider, Lu Kewei warned him in a low voice, “Song Zixiu, speak less.”
Song Zixiu smiled at her and gave her a look of relief. He then said to Xiao Shixian, “Shixian, I think there is no place for you to use my wife. Please don’t look for her alone in the future, I am fine.”
Of course, Lu Kewei could feel that Song Zixiu’s words seemed gentle, but were actually hiding something. He couldn’t help but pull at him with one hand. This man’s jealousy made him feel somewhat unreasonable.
Of course, Luke didn’t understand. A man’s natural sense of smell allowed him to sense the existence of a competitor. Xiao Shixian did not seem to care about Song Zixiu’s words. He only smiled and said: “Thank you very much, Miss Lu. I’ll invite you and An Ran to dinner next time. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other.”
Song Zixiu smiled and said, “Of course you can, but I would prefer to have you address me as Mrs. Song.”
Xiao Shixian declined to comment, but it was already late. He still had to go home, so he bid farewell to the couple and got into the car.
After Xiao Shixian’s Cadillac had gone far, Lu Kewei and Song Zixiu shook hands and walked back. Lu Kewei couldn’t help but say, “Zi Xiu, you know there’s nothing going on between Xiao Shixian and me. Your attitude just now was a bit unreasonable.”
Song Zixiu raised his eyebrows, “I am only swearing to be the ruler. I am not in the wrong.”
Lu Kewei had an expression that said that he couldn’t speak properly. He really didn’t understand why Ye Zichen was so jealous.
Song Zixiu looked as if he had suffered a great grievance, “Ke Wei, why do I feel like you are more protective of Xiao Shixian than me?”
This time, Lu Ke Wei was truly speechless. He quickly took two steps forward, as if he wanted to shake him off. Song Zi Xiu quickly caught up with her and hugged her. He smiled and said, “Ke Wei, I did this because I care about you. You clearly know this better than anyone.”
Lu Kewei glared at him, replying, “Today’s matter has finally been completed. Xiao Shixian and I won’t have any interactions in the future. You can rest assured now.”
Song Zixiu smiled, but said nothing.
In the middle of the night, Lu Kewei was suddenly woken up by Song Zixiu. He looked at him with a serious expression and said to her, “Ke Wei, something happened at Yuwei’s place.”
Lu Kewei’s expression changed drastically as he hurriedly asked Song Zixiu what was going on. After hearing Song Zixiu’s words, Lu Kewei’s face turned even more unsightly. He immediately got up from the bed and changed his clothes, “I’m going to accompany Yuwei. We’re both women, it’s more convenient to say some things.”
Song Zixiu nodded and quickly changed his clothes as well.
It was already the wee hours of the morning when the couple arrived at the old residence of the Song Family, but tonight, the house was brightly lit.
Before the car even stopped, Lu Kewei had already opened the car door and rushed out. Song Zixiu was shocked, but he still kept on reminding her to slow down.
