Using Marriage as Bait - Chapter 22
The night sky, approaching the middle of the night, is endlessly dark, far and wide, deep and mysterious, making people unpredictable.
She remembered what Lu Junfeng said today, but she didn’t take it to heart, why did he ask such a question.
She turned around and said, “No, Lu Junfeng and I have no chance.”
“Really?”
He asked, his tone seemed a little softer than he just sounded.
“Lin Xiyu nodded.”
“I didn’t use you as a substitute.” He suddenly said, “Will you trust me?”
Lin Xiyu looked at him, his eyes were deep, but his tone was very firm, Lin Xiyu suddenly thought of the towering mountains in the distance, standing quietly, solid, steady, unshakable.
At this time, Lu Junting seemed to be that kind of mountain, and there was an unquestionable sense of certainty in his words.
Lin Xiyu nodded unconsciously, “Okay, I believe you.”
In fact, she really doesn’t care, but if he wants her to believe it, she will believe it.
“Okay.” He replied lightly, closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, “I’ll rest for a while.”
There was a faint sense of relief in her tone.
The carriage was quiet, and the two did not speak any more. The car quickly drove to Moon Bay No. 1. Lu Junting really drank a lot and walked unsteadily. It was his assistant who helped him up floor. But when Lin Xiyu got up the next day, Lu Junting was already up.
He was sitting in the living room on the phone, when she went downstairs she heard him say to the other end of the phone, “Let him stay there, don’t come back if nothing happens.”
“Are you up?” Lu Junting greeted her as usual.
Lin Xiyu nodded and asked politely, “Brother Jun Ting drank too much wine yesterday, do you want the chef to make a bowl of hangover soup?”
“No need.” Lu Junting leaned on the sofa and looked at her with his legs crossed, “I arranged for Lu Junfeng to go to Jiangyuan City.”
Lu Junfeng’s work place is not in Ancheng, but in the city next to Ancheng, not far away, can come back once a week, but Jiangyuan is more than 1,000 kilometers away from Ancheng, let alone a week Well, you may not be able to come back once a month.
Lu Junting suddenly arranged Lu Junfeng to go out of town. Lin Xiyu guessed that maybe because of yesterday’s incident, Lu Junfeng was too impulsive and should not provoke Lu Junting. He is the eldest brother and the head of the family. Majestic Qirong people provocation at will? But this was the Lu family’s business, and it had nothing to do with her, so she nodded after hearing it.
Lu Junting said again: “Do you blame me for arranging him so far?”
Lin Xiyu said: “No, you have your own considerations, not to mention you are the eldest brother, you can’t hurt him, right?”
“Not sure.”
“…”
His expression was meaningful, and it gave people an unpredictable feeling, as if he was testing something.
But that has nothing to do with her, it is the problem between the two brothers.
Just as Sister Wu called for dinner, Lin Xiyu said, “Let’s eat first.” This topic came to an end.
After eating, Lu Junting went to work, and Lin Xiyu also learned from Lu Yuan that Lu Junting was arranged to go to Jiangyuan City. It is said that Jiang Lisu went to Mrs. Lu and cried a lot because of this. , but this is Lu Junting’s decision, and even the old lady Lu has no control.
The days passed so peacefully, and Lin Xiyu and Miss Sun often contacted and exchanged some pregnancy experiences. Arrested for embezzlement.
However, it has nothing to do with her.
Lu Junting is still very busy, Changheng Group’s “change of roles” this time is a huge innovation in the company, eliminating dissidents and strengthening Lu Junting’s rule over Changheng. position will become more stable.
There are still many things to be dealt with in the follow-up, and the foreign problems have not been dealt with, but Lu Junting has all gone out of work, and his child will be born in a few months, these few He wanted to stay in Ancheng to accompany Lin Xiyu to give birth.
Lu Junting came back on time every day after get off work, and Lin Xiyu and him talked a little more than before, but they were all about the children. Lin Xiyu’s stomach is getting bigger and bigger, and the whole person looks clumsy. This afternoon, Sister Wu accompanied her for a walk in the backyard. She was too tired to move anymore, her feet were a little sore, and Lin Xiyu sat on the sofa and rubbed.
Lu Junting just came back. Seeing her bare calf, Lin Xiyu hurriedly put down his trouser legs when he saw him, and said a little embarrassedly, “Brother Junting is back.”
Although she just glanced at it casually, Lu Junting noticed that her calf was swollen a little abnormally. As for being fat like this.
“What’s wrong with your feet?” Lu Junting sat next to her and asked.
He didn’t sit close to her, but when he got close, she always felt at a loss, and she said with an unnatural expression, “It’s edema.”
“Are you going to the hospital?”
“It’s not a big problem, many pregnant women are like this.”
Lu Junting didn’t say anything. The next day, a master who specialized in massaging Lin Xiyu came to the house.
“Mrs. Lu, I will come to give Mrs. Lu a massage every afternoon from now on.”
The masseuse is a middle-aged woman, thin and kind when she smiles. Lin Xiyu asked, “Did my husband arrange it?”
The masseuse said, “Mr. Lu arranged it.”
Lin Xiyu thought about Lu Junting asking her about swollen feet yesterday.
Lu Junting also bought her a massage chair, which is said to have been airlifted from abroad. The masseuse asked her to sit on the massage chair and put her feet in the medicated foot bath bucket. The masseuse’s technique was unique. From the foot of the foot to the calf, Lin Xiyu felt the comfort and ironed every cell in the body. .
Lu Junting not only hired a masseuse for her, but also hired a yoga teacher to take her to do yoga during pregnancy. In short, how did Lu Junting make her feel comfortable during the most tiring time in the second trimester.
In any case, he is really a husband who is speechless, but Lin Xiyu also knows that he does all this for the child in her belly.
Lin Xiyu’s expected date of giving birth is in early May. It is the season when the wind is warm and the spring breeze is drunk. The flowers in the yard are blooming and the grass leaves are shining green.
But Lin Xiyu didn’t expect the little guy to be so anxious. Lu Junting had already arranged the hospital, and he would send her there the next day. How could he know that the night before, when there were three days before the due date, the little guy Can’t wait to knock on the door.
It was dinner time, Lin Xiyu and Lu Junting sat opposite each other, Lin Xiyu suddenly felt a period of pain, and then looked down and saw that the chair she sat on was wet.
Lin Xiyu was taken aback and said to Lu Junting with a look of panic: “What should I do, Brother Junting, it’s running water.”
Lu Junting responded quickly, put the tableware and chopsticks in his hands, and suddenly got up and walked towards her. Lu Junting took time to do some homework during this time, and when he saw the water dripping from the chair understand what happened.
Lu Junting made a decisive decision, first ordered someone to ask the driver to drive the car over, leaned down and directly picked her up and walked out, the driver drove the car to the door, Lu Junting carried her into the car .
The pain became more and more severe, Lin Xiyu bit her lip tightly, for fear that she would scream in pain. Lu Junting let her lean against his arms to stabilize her body. He looked down at the person in his arms, but saw a layer of sweat on her forehead, her face wrinkled with pain, and her lower lip was tightly bitten by her. All whitened.
Lu Junting broke her lower lip out with his thumb, and said solemnly, “Don’t bite yourself, you will bleed if you bite again.”
Lin Xiyu’s teeth chattered in pain, Lu Junting put his hand to her lips and said, “bit me if you want.”
He put his hand in her mouth, it was so painful, she didn’t have time to be surprised that he bit her hand like this, she hurriedly turned her head away, she didn’t want to bite him .
Although Lu Junting looked calm, he was also flustered at this time. He glanced outside the car, and an inexplicable uneasiness expressed his anger, and he asked the driver: “Are you still how long?”
This chilly tone made the driver shudder, and said tremblingly: “It’s almost there.”
The hospital is near Moon Bay No. 1, not far, but Lu Junting felt that the journey was extraordinarily long, especially listening to her suppressed voice. I had already called in advance, the nurse pushed the bed to pick him up, Lu Junting helped to carry Lin Xiyu up, and the nurse pushed her to the hospital.
It would be nice to have her family there, but she has long since lost her family.
Lu Junting followed him all the way, Lin Xiyu suddenly saw him, she suddenly realized that the only person she could rely on here was him, the fear of the unknown made her eager to find something to support, too Needing comfort and sustenance in her heart, she reached out to him, Lu Junting didn’t even think about it, and hurriedly held it, Lin Xiyu was very scared, really scared.
“I’m afraid, Brother Junting, I’m afraid.” There was a cry in her voice.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
Lu Junting’s palm was warm and dry, tightly wrapping her little hand, his tone was calm, and there was a reassuring sense of strength, as if any problem was not a problem in front of him.
Lin Xiyu also slowly calmed down, she was quickly pushed to the delivery room, Lu Junting was blocked from the door, and the hands they held together were forced to loosen.
Lu Junting stood outside the door for a long time before he could react. The man, who was always neat and meticulous, was messing up his clothes at this time, and she scratched out creases on the trouser legs of good quality, but he But he didn’t care, and stood at the door a little dazed.
Until he regained his senses, he took out his mobile phone and called the rest of the Lu family. After a while, Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu and the three-bedroom family arrived in a hurry.
The old lady Lu asked, “How long have you been in?”
Lu Junting said, “It’s been a while.”
There was a faint cry in the delivery room, which made people panic. Lu Junting got up from the chair and said, “I’m going to have a cigarette.”
He went to the smoking room to smoke a cigarette and came back to the delivery room with the door still closed.
Lu Yuan sat tightly against Zhang Yao on the chair, she stared blankly at the delivery room, listening to the screams inside, her face turned pale, the fingers holding Zhang Yao subconsciously closed Tight, he murmured like he was talking to himself: “Xixi will be fine, right? It’s really scary to have children. I will never get married or have children in the future, and I won’t get married or have children to ensure my safety.”
Zhang Yao pinched her fiercely, and whispered, “You **** child, what are you talking about?”
Fortunately, it didn’t take too long inside. After about four or five hours, the door of the delivery room was pushed open, and the nurse came out holding the newborn baby and said, “It’s a little prince.”
The melancholy on everyone’s face was swept away, and they hurried over to see the child, but Lu Junting didn’t look at the child, he asked, “How is the maternity?”
The nurse said, “She fell asleep.”
“Can I go in and take a look?” Lu Junting asked again.
Lu Junting went in and took a look. At this time, Lin Xiyu, who was lying on the bed, was sweating all over his face, his eyes were tired, and he had already passed out. There was a doctor next to him. Lu Junting was worried and asked again, “Is she all right?”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu is fine, just wake up.”
Lu Junting breathed a sigh of relief, he went out, everyone asked a question, and he was relieved to know that Lin Xiyu was fine. Mrs. Lu hurriedly handed the child in her hand to Lu Junting, and said with a happy face, “Come and see, it looks exactly like you when you were a child.”
Lu Junting was inexperienced in holding a child, and his posture was a little stiff to take it. He looked down at the infant child and said in his heart, he was looking forward to this child. Love is not something that can be explained in three or two sentences.
However, when he saw the child in the swaddling clothes with red skin, swollen eyes, and folds all over his body, his brows furrowed subconsciously.
Why so ugly! ? ? ? ? ?
Lu Junting arranged a VIP ward for Lin Xiyu. The bed was large and comfortable, and there was a sofa TV next to it. At this moment, Lu Junting was sitting on the sofa beside the hospital bed, and his assistant came over with a bunch of documents to sign for him.
Lin Xiyu slept soundly and regained a lot of energy. She touched her stomach subconsciously, and it was much smaller. She remembered hearing from the doctor that she had given birth to a little prince before she went to bed yesterday, but She fell asleep before she could look at him.
Lu Junting heard the movement and turned his head to look. Seeing that she was awake, he put the half-signed document in his assistant’s hand, stepped forward and asked, “Is there anything uncomfortable?”
“What about the child? How is he? Is he healthy? Is he cute?”
Lu Junting said: “He’s in the nursery, he’s quite healthy.” He automatically ignored the question of whether he was cute or not.
At this moment, Zhang Yao came to visit Lin Xiyu with the child in her arms, followed by Mrs. Lu, Zhang Yao smiled and said, “Look at the baby.”
This is the first time that Lin Xiyu holds the baby. Lin Xiyu is so excited that her hands and feet are in disarray. When she takes the baby from Zhang Yao, her fingers are shaking, and Mrs. Lu laughed aside: “It looks a lot like Jun Ting when he was a child.”
Lu Junting, who was standing beside him, didn’t look very good. He didn’t want to hear others say that the child looked like him.
He was actually a little worried, after all, the child grew up like this, but the elders said that he looked like him when he was a child, and he didn’t know if she would blame him for being too ugly after seeing it, after all It’s ugly because it looks like him.
And she didn’t expect this child, and even wanted to kill him for a while, if she saw that the child he gave her was not cute, would she not like it?
Lin Xiyu took the child and looked at the pink and tender mass in the swaddle, her eyes glowed softly, and her tone could not hide her excitement, “He… He looks so cute.”
Lu Junting: “…”
Huh?
Lu Junting tilted his head to one side, secretly relieved.
He thought, maybe…their aesthetics are different.
“Wow, he smiled, he smiled.” Lin Xiyu seemed to have discovered something incredible, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Everyone else leaned in to see.
“That’s a good laugh.”
“Newborn babies rarely laugh. It seems that our baby is a smile.”
I did laugh, with a wrinkled smile, revealing a row of bald gums, looking… uglier, beyond words.
He looked at the little girl’s expression again, but saw her unblinkingly staring at the little thing in the swaddle, not only did he not dislike it, but had a loving and gentle face, and her voice was also revealing Joy, “He is so cute, how can he be so cute.”
Lu Junting: “…”
Okay, if you like it.
