Black-bellied husband, don't be too bad

Chapter 227 I'm sorry, I'm late

Chu Ci couldn't restrain the excitement in her heart and grabbed Jiang Xing's sleeve: "Did Lu Xiang come back?"

Jiang Xing nodded: "Yes, Missy said she wants to see you."

"Okay, you take me there now."

Along the way, Chu Ci sat in the car and asked Jiang Xing various questions. Jiang Xing answered them one by one, and finally smiled: "Miss Chu, it's better for you to ask the eldest lady yourself after you see her."

Lu Xiang came back secretly, no one told, only Jiang Xing knew.

The place where she lives now is also arranged by Jiang Xing.

It is in a community slightly away from the city center, with a good environment and pleasant scenery.

Lu Xiang didn't want to be disturbed when he lived here.

Chu Ci went upstairs and rang the doorbell. When the door opened, she saw the face of a strange woman. She glanced at Chu Ci and asked in somewhat jerky Chinese, "Are you Miss Chu Ci?"

She pointed to the room and said, "Miss Lu is in the room, come in quickly!"

As soon as Chu Ci walked in, she saw Lu Xiang, who was wearing a long sleeve, walking over.

The weather in June was already very hot, but Lu Xiang was still dressed in long clothes and trousers. The moment Chu Ci saw Lu Xiang, he was extremely excited psychologically.

She walked over quickly: "When did you come back, where is the baby?"

Lu Xiang gained a little weight after giving birth, and his complexion was also sallow and sallow, which was not very good-looking, and he seemed a little listless.

So when seeing Lu Xiang at close range, Chu Ci's expression was very impressive.

"Why do you look at me like that?" Lu Xiang covered his face: "Am I ugly?"

A few black lines were drawn on the corners of Chu Ci's forehead. She pursed her lips and comforted, "It's like this after giving birth. Is the baby in the room?"

Lu Xiang looked at Chu Ci with contempt, and asked where the baby was as soon as he came, and didn't ask if she was in good health?

But Chu Ci was obviously attracted by the baby. She opened the door and walked in, and she saw the baby's cradle.

The little girl is still sleeping, with long eyelashes covering her eyelids. Although she can't see anything yet, what is certain is that she will be a beautiful little princess in the future.

Chu Ci hastily covered her mouth with her hands, afraid that she would scream.

The excitement of seeing a newborn baby is indescribable.

She turned to look at Lu Xiang: "Isn't it almost a month?"

Lu Xiang came over, sat by the bed and nodded: "The full moon will be a few days away."

Chu Ci didn't reply to her, but looked at the little life in the cradle without blinking and sighed: "It's so cute, it must be a great beauty when it grows up!"

Lu Xiang was not as excited as she was. She sighed leisurely, her expression very solemn.

Chu Ci turned her face and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I came back to attend grandma's funeral." Lu Xiang sighed, with infinite mist in his eyes: "I didn't even see her for the last time."

Chu Ci's eyes dimmed for a while, she sat on the edge of the bed and held Lu Xiang's hand, comfortingly said: "You gave birth abroad at that time, there is no way to do it."

She sighed: "But the old lady still misses you very much. If you want to go to the funeral, I will accompany you!"

It just so happened that Fu Heng also ordered that he was going on a business trip abroad, and he couldn't make it back to attend the funeral, so Chu Ci performed a courtesy instead of her.

Lu Xiang nodded, feeling pain in her head, she gasped: "I might leave after the funeral."

Chu Ci's eyes widened immediately, and she raised her voice: "Leave again?"

"Yeah, I want to stay in the United States permanently, and I don't want to come back."

After all, here in Yicheng, there are many good memories for her, but there are also many pains.

"You come back this time, does Mu Xiuchen know?"

"have no idea for now."

After sitting for a while, Lu Xiang felt a little pain in her waist. After giving birth, she still had a lot of problems with her body. It was late June, and she still felt her body bones were cold, and sometimes her waist was sore and uncomfortable.

Chu Ci looked at her sympathetically: "Lie down for a while!"

She glanced at the baby in the small cradle and asked, "Is there no name yet?"

Lu Xiang lay on his side on the bed, shook his head, and closed his eyes: "Not yet, you can take one!"

Chu Ci bit her lip, poked the little girl's face with her hand, and said, "It's soft, like a steamed stuffed bun. Let's call it Steamed Bun!"

"No!" Lu Xiang resolutely refused, "Which girl's nickname is Baozi."

Chu Ci thought about it too, she held her chin and said, "It's not called buns, it's called dumplings, how about glutinous rice balls?"

Lu Xiang couldn't bear it anymore and turned over: "Why is it all food, no good, save these for your future children!"

Chu Ci pouted and groaned.

Lu Xiang thought for a while: "How about calling it Mian Mian, it's soft."

"Mianmian?" Chu Ci's eyes lit up, "Yes!"

She turned her face away and smiled at the baby in the cradle: "Mianmian, I'm your godmother!"

Lu Xiang pursed his lips and smiled, and asked, "How are you doing?"

"How about what?"

"Didn't you tell me that you and Fu Heng divorced, and then you lost contact?"

Hearing Lu Xiang bring up this topic, Chu Ci immediately laughed twice: "You just gave birth, so you need to rest more!"

Lu Xiang snorted coldly: "You haven't broken up with him yet, have you?"

Chu Ci lowered her head, then raised her face and smiled at Lu Xiang embarrassedly: "If I say yes, will you laugh at me?"

Lu Xiang sighed, and said softly: "No, I'm just afraid that you won't see clearly, and you will hurt yourself again."

She stretched out her hand and stroked Chu Ci's hair: "You and I have known each other for so many years, I don't know what your personality is, I can almost expect this kind of result, and he must be entangled again later. You, you are soft-hearted and want to turn back, right?"

Lu Xiang has experienced so many things, it seems that she has opened up a lot, and she has no other hope now, she just hopes that her child can grow up safely.

Probably all women who are disappointed in love will pour all their emotions into their children.

There is nothing to worry about in this world, only children can give her a glimmer of hope.

Chu Ci lowered her head, looked at the lines on her palm, and said softly, "I want to give myself another chance."

Lu Xiang raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you afraid of getting hurt?"

Chu Ci took a deep breath: "I'm afraid, but who hasn't been hurt in the relationship!" She smiled faintly at Lu Xiang: "Maybe I will have a good life and be loving for a lifetime, maybe I will give up completely, scribble, no How do you know if you try it?"

Lu Xiang was speechless for a moment, and finally she smiled like a sigh, pinched Chu Ci's face: "Now, you are braver than me!"

No one is really braver than her.

In the past, she felt that she was really brave, with the determination and perseverance like moths to a flame, even if she was hurt, she didn't feel sad or painful. In fact, she didn't feel much pain or sadness, but when she thought about it in the long night, she felt I still feel a burst of coldness and coldness, penetrating into the bone marrow and condensing into ice.

Chu Ci took her hand away: "Don't pinch my face, the flesh is loosened by you."

Lu Xiang sneered, rolled her eyes, and sighed: "It's almost time, I'll ask Aunt Li to cook for us."

After Chu Ci had dinner with Lu Xiang and teased the baby for a while, Jiang Xing sent her home.

On the way, Chu Ci asked: "No one will know when she comes back this time!"

"Well, the eldest lady is going to return to the United States after returning to participate. Maybe she will stay in the United States and not come back?"

"Oh, you have to protect her and try not to let anyone know her whereabouts." For some reason, Chu Ci was always worried about something.

"I will, don't worry."

His duty is to protect the eldest lady, nothing else.

…………

Mrs. Mu's funeral is scheduled for the weekend.

Mu Xiuchen handled it all by himself.

He is now the head of the Mu family. In the previous internal struggle, he relied on Fu Heng's power and the accumulated connections before to win this tough battle.

Now, most of Mu's shares are controlled by him, and he can not only control it, but also stabilize it, and his power should not be underestimated.

Before the funeral started, he continued to speak. If anyone dared to make trouble at the old lady's funeral, he would never show mercy.

The uncles and uncles have also seen his methods these days, so they dare not make mistakes.

Warmly dressed in a black Chanel dress without any embellishments, she faced the guests coming and going with a serious face.

Someone kindly offered her to take a rest, but she also refused.

An appearance of abiding by etiquette and understanding etiquette.

The funeral started in the morning and continued until the afternoon. Mu Xiuchen was busy greeting the guests who came and went.

Towards the afternoon, the number of guests gradually decreased.

Mu Xiuchen came over, seeing that Wenxin was still standing there looking extremely tired, he frowned, and said in a low voice, "Go and rest first, I'll greet you here."

Wen Xin shook her head: "No, I'm not tired."

She raised her head and was about to smile at Mu Xiuchen, but when her eyes shifted to the guests at the door, the smile on her lips froze all of a sudden.

Mu Xiuchen also felt the change in her expression, turned his face away, and frowned all of a sudden.

For a moment, he almost thought he was delusional.

When he came back to his senses, Lu Xiang and Chu Ci had already walked in.

Both Lu Xiang and Chu Ci were dressed in black, with serious and dignified expressions.

But the difference is that Lu Xiang wore a black gauze on his head and a black suit jacket outside, so he was tightly wrapped.

She walked over without even looking at Mu Xiuchen, and walked straight to the old lady's spirit, and bowed according to the etiquette: "Grandma, I'm sorry, I'm late."
