Black-bellied husband, don't be too bad

Chapter 228 Mianmian Seems to Have a Fever
The moment she saw Lu Xiang again, the expression on Wen Xin's face suddenly became a little sharp.

She walked straight in front of Lu Xiang, with sharp and angry expressions in her eyes, "You still have the face to come back?"

Lu Xiang ignored her, bowed ninety degrees to the old lady, and then stepped aside.

After Chu Ci saluted, she said to Mu Xiuchen who was standing there, "Fu Heng couldn't come back from his business trip, so he asked me to offer his condolences, and I hope you will forgive me."

Mu Xiuchen nodded, but his mind was not here at all, but kept staring at Lu Xiang.

It's been a long time since I saw her. She doesn't look very well. Is she sick?
Against the backdrop of the black clothes, she seemed even paler.

Mu Xiuchen didn't know what kind of feelings passed in his heart, he suddenly stepped forward and murmured: "Lu Xiang..."

Lu Xiang raised his head and glanced at him lightly: "Mr. Mu, please forgive me."

Her formulaic words made Mu Xiuchen feel uncomfortable, he frowned, wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.

He wanted to say too much to Lu Xiang. He wanted to ask her if she was okay, if her baby was okay, and if she would never leave again.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say a word.

Chu Ci walked up to Lu Xiang, and whispered in her ear, "Do you want to stay here for a while, or leave now."

Lu Xiang breathed out, looked at the portrait of the old lady surrounded by wreaths, her eyes flushed, she held Chu Ci's hand: "Let me stay for a while!"

Chu Ci nodded: "Okay, I will accompany you."

Wen Xin, who was standing on the side, saw that Mu Xiuchen saw Lu Xiang's soul seemed to be gone for a moment, and the anger in her heart became more vigorous. She stepped forward and stood in front of Lu Xiang with a sneer: "Grandma needs people the most when she is alive." When you were with her, you were not by her side, and now that she has passed away, do you think grandma will forgive you if you can cover up your mistakes by crying a few tears?"

Wen Xin's words were aggressive, if it was normal, Lu Xiang would definitely tear up with her, but now in front of the mourning hall, and what Wen Xin said was true, she didn't want to quarrel with her, disturbing grandma's cleanliness.

So she held back, didn't speak, and kept her head down.

Wenxin had never seen her like this before, and she felt a little proud in her heart, but that pride was well concealed by her anger: "You are not welcome here, and I invite you to go out."

Chu Ci frowned suddenly, who did Miss Wen want to show this performance to?
This hasn't started yet, and she regards herself as the hostess of the Mu family, and she doesn't know who gave her face.

So she stared back unceremoniously at that time: "Miss Wen, what standpoint do you use to say this? When will it be your turn to decide the affairs of the Mu family?"

Lu Xiang took her hand, signaled her to stop talking, then raised his head, and slowly met Wenxin's eyes: "When grandma was sick, it was my fault that I didn't do my filial piety by the bedside. When she passed away, I came back There is nothing wrong with expressing condolences, why should Miss Wen be aggressive."

Wen Xin was taken aback for a moment, she almost couldn't believe it was Lu Xiang's words.

She seemed to have a much calmer personality, it was because of having a baby, or because she wanted to pretend to be weak in front of Mu Xiuchen.

Thinking of this, she quietly clenched the hand hanging on the side, and just about to speak, Mu Xiuchen had already spoken first: "Okay, I don't think it's embarrassing enough, do you want the guests to watch a joke?"

He stared at Lu Xiang with a bit of tenderness: "Do you want to go upstairs to rest for a while?"

Wenxin's eyes were about to burst into flames, but she forcibly held back.

Lu Xiang raised his face and glanced at him expressionlessly, without saying a word, but walked up to the spirit of old lady Mu again, and bowed deeply.

Then she wiped away her tears: "Grandma, I will come to see you again when I have a chance."

In this life, she will never be able to erase her guilt towards Mrs. Mu.

Lu Xiang straightened up and took Chu Ci's hand: "Chu Chu, let's go!"

Mu Xiuchen looked at the back of her leaving, and hurriedly pulled over a brother of the same clan: "You take care of it first."

After finishing speaking, he directly chased Lu Xiang out. Outside the villa, he grabbed Lu Xiang's sleeve, "Wait!"

Lu Xiang retracted his arm calmly, and asked in a faint voice: "What's the matter?"

Mu Xiuchen stared at her pale face: "Baby, is she okay?"

Lu Xiang still had a faint voice: "Didn't you already give up on her?"

"I want to meet her!"

"No!" Lu Xiang flatly refused.

"Lu Xiang, that's my daughter too."

"So what?" Lu Xiang raised his eyebrows: "Forget what you said yourself, she has nothing to do with you."

What Mu Xiuchen wanted to say, Lu Xiang had already held Chu Ci's hand: "Let's go!"

"Lu Xiang!" Just as Mu Xiuchen called her name, Wen Xin who came out of the villa grabbed her arm: "Xiu Chen, there are so many guests here to express their condolences, so it's not good for you to come out like this? "

Mu Xiuchen's movements froze, but his gaze was still glued to Lu Xiang's back and did not leave.

Wen Xin suppressed the anger in her stomach, wanted to have an attack but couldn't, she endured it, suppressed her anger and said: "You didn't hear what she said, she and that child have nothing to do with you. Haven’t you in the United States already made it clear, what are you insisting on now?”

Do you want to get that child back, or do you want to get back together with Lu Xiang.

No, she would never allow Mu Xiuchen to do this, and she would never allow Lu Xiang to have such an opportunity.

Wen Xin turned cold, and continued: "Today is grandma's funeral, there are so many guests, and your uncles, so many eyes staring at you, don't be impulsive." She calmed down: "What's the matter?" The matter can be discussed later, go in with me first, okay?"

Mu Xiuchen pursed his lips, finally turned his gaze back, and walked in.

Looking back warmly, staring at the disappearing figure, a flash of sharpness quickly flashed in his eyes.

…………

Because of attending the memorial service for Mrs. Mu, Lu Xiang was extremely tired. She leaned on the seat, closed her eyes and didn't want to say a word.

Chu Ci held her hand on the side: "Are you too tired, go back and rest quickly."

Lu Xiang sighed softly: "Chuchu, I really can't forgive myself. I insisted on leaving and didn't consider grandma's feelings, so now God punishes me, and I can't even see grandma's last side."

Chu Ci shook her head, and said in relief: "No, there was nothing you could do about it when you left. Grandma loves you so much, so she won't blame you."

If he hadn't left at the beginning, it was still a question whether Lu Xiang's child could be born safely!

After all, the Mu family has so many eyes staring at her, and Wen Xin doesn't know what's on her mind.

Therefore, she left to avoid these troubles so that her baby could be born safely.

Lu Xiang covered his eyes with his hands, and it took a long time before he said, "Do you know how the old lady has a stroke?"

Chu Ci shook her head: "I'm not sure, maybe I'm old."

She held Lu Xiang's icy cold hand: "The old man's body is weak, and he might have a stroke when he is suddenly stimulated. But I thought the old lady would recover, but I didn't expect that she would die in the end."

At that time, when she saw that the old lady was awake, she really thought that the old lady would get better, but what she got in the end was the bad news of her death.

Lu Xiang pursed her lips, her eyebrows were serious, she looked out of the window, and suddenly remembered something, and said to Chu Ci: "A few days before my due date, someone sent me a newspaper and revealed the news of the old lady's death , I didn’t realize it for a while, and my fetus moved, but fortunately, I was still in the hospital at the time, but the amniotic fluid broke, and Mianmian was a little hypoxic when she was born. The doctor said that she almost died, but fortunately, she was rescued later.”

After hearing her narration, Chu Ci's eyes were almost rounded. She really didn't expect that Mian Mian's birth would have such a tortuous journey. She frowned: "Did someone tell you the news on purpose?"

"I thought so too, so I asked Jiang Xing to investigate, but the little boy selling newspapers hasn't appeared in the hospital since that day, as if he disappeared, and I'm in the United States, I always feel that Someone was watching me, but nothing happened, so I thought I was overwhelmed with the baby."

Chu Ci's back felt chills when she heard it, and she felt her blood congeal for a moment. She held Lu Xiang's hand: "I'm a little scared as you said, you must pay attention to safety and take care of yourself!"

Lu Xiang nodded: "Of course, for my daughter, I have to protect myself."

Chu Ci thought for a while, then lowered her voice: "Does it have something to do with Wen Xin?"

Lu Xiang pursed his lips: "I already told her that I would not use my child as a bargaining chip to entangle Mu Xiuchen, nor would I appear in front of them again. Although I am a cousin to her, I am not good to her. I understand it very well, I just know that she likes to carry it and pretend to be noble."

She did, but because of special circumstances this time, Mrs. Mu passed away, and it was impossible for her not to come back to attend the memorial service due to emotion and reason.

Chu Ci breathed out: "I'm afraid that woman won't believe you. I always feel that she has a vicious personality. Of course, I don't know her very well, so it's just a guess."

Lu Xiang patted the back of her hand: "I will pay attention."

The car stopped at the gate of Lu Xiang's community, and Lu Xiang and Chu Ci got out of the car together.

Chu Ci wanted to see the baby before going back, but as soon as the door opened, she saw the servant holding the baby standing in the living room on the phone, seeing them coming back, she immediately showed surprise on her face, "Miss Lu, Mianmian seems to have a fever , I was just about to call you."

Lu Xiang was so anxious that he didn't even have time to change his shoes, so he hurried over to touch the child's forehead, it was really hot.
