Lu Xixin was painting with Shen Nianxi when she received a call from Zhao Minyao.
She didn't think much and picked it up directly.
After picking it up, I realized it was Lu Chengji.
Lu Xixin raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.
She knew something about Lu Chengcheng. He was a man with a strong sense of responsibility, deep knowledge, and a lot of transparency.
Knowing that the dispute between her and the Lu family has reached this point, there is absolutely no room for reconciliation.
If there was nothing important, I would never call her.
So, he called today to find out what was going on.
Lu Xixin changed her hand to answer the phone, leaving her right hand free to cooperate with Xiao Nianxi in drawing.
His thoughts were not entirely focused on Lu Chengji.
"Miss Lu." Lu Chengji's tone was very polite: "I'm sorry for disturbing you."
Hearing this, Lu Xixin curled her lips and sneered: "Mr. Lu is too polite. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Lu Chengji took a deep breath, turned his eyes to the window, and looked into the empty distance. After a while, he said calmly: "Miss Lu, can I ask you a question?"
"Um."
Lu Chengji: "If none of this happened, and time went back to the day when you just returned to the Lu family, and there was a conflict between your mother and Grandpa Guze, who adopted you, who would you help?"
Lu Xixin was drawing a little turtle. When he heard this, the tip of his colored pen paused, leaving a big green dot on the white paper.
She was not in a hurry, and immediately turned around, and the green dots slowly turned into lines on the turtle's back.
Xiao Nianxi was shocked, clapped her hands and exclaimed: "It's so amazing."
Lu Xixin's heart suddenly softened, she leaned forward and kissed the little guy on the forehead, and whispered: "How about we go play upstairs?"
Xiao Nianxi nodded obediently and went upstairs holding the drawing paper.
He wants to frame the little turtle painting and hang it in the room.
This is what Sister Xixin painted for him.
After Shen Nianxi left, Lu Xixin regained her composure and continued talking to Lu Chengji on the phone.
She still knew what Lu Chengji meant.
Just to show that if it were her, when there was a conflict between giving birth to grace and nourishing grace, she would also tend to nurture grace.
Therefore, although what Mother Lu did was a bit excessive, it was also human nature.
People's hearts are inherently biased, and all five fingers are long or short, let alone children who are not raised by their side.
Without getting along day and night, and without the exchange of emotions, how can we love someone?
Lu Xixin spoke, her voice was very soft, but her tone was resolute: "Of course I am leaning toward Grandpa Guze. He raised me and loved me, so how could I be willing to make him sad."
Lu Chengji raised his lower lip and smiled: "Miss Lu, since you will make this choice, it means that human nature is like this, so the mother's choice is not wrong. She just loves the children she raises around her more. What's the point?
Wrong?"
"That's right." Lu Xixin nodded, "Actually, I have never blamed her for being partial."
Lu Xixin is a very rational person. From beginning to end, she has never blamed Mother Lu for being partial, and can even accept that she doesn't love her enough.
But she couldn't accept that her biological mother was a lunatic.
Don't distinguish between right and wrong, don't know right and wrong, and never do bad things!
Lu Xixin stood up and spoke in a stern voice: "Lu Chengji, this world is fair and just. She doesn't love me enough, and I don't love her enough. This is fair. But why does she act so wantonly just because she gave birth to me?
Hurt me?
Since she doesn't regard me as her biological daughter and doesn't want to give me any love, then why should she ask me to give in, why should she dictate my life as a matter of course, and why should she insult me as a matter of course.
"
Speaking of this, Lu Xixin raised her voice and her tone was extremely sharp: "The first time, Lu Yaqing found someone to insult me, but it was Zhao Minyi who asked me to give in, and naturally told me to be tolerant and not pursue any further charges.
The reason for this is because I was born by her, so she can make the decision for me.
If she were a stranger, even if she wanted to favor Lu Yaqing, she would find a way to plead with the stranger, give money and things, and be humble and submissive.
Why are you so arrogant when you come to my place?
Not because I am her daughter!"
Lu Xixin was a little excited, paused, and continued: "He also helped Lu Yaqing frame me, slandered my reputation, and even tried to use public opinion to intimidate me. All of them are harmful to others.
Doesn't she understand that these things are illegal? No matter how powerful the Lu family is, they are not above the law, but why does she still do it?
Because I was born by her, I am her daughter, so my life must be shackles by her!"
"Lu Chengji, I don't believe you don't understand this!" Lu Xixin said coldly, "It's you who have done everything right, and then you tell me that human nature is like this, it's so ridiculous.
Human nature does not bear the blame!
Throughout the ages, I have never seen anyone say that human nature is so despicable, that it is impossible to hurt one’s own daughter and do bad things!”
"Because she hurt me, so I have to forgive, right? I want to ask, if she hurt someone else, a random stranger in the world, would you have the nerve to ask others to forgive her?"
"Just because I am her biological daughter, no matter what she did, I must forgive her unreasonably? Why?"
Lu Xixin's words were resounding, like sharp blades piercing into Lu Chengji's chest.
Make him heartbroken.
Unexpectedly, Xixin hated them so much.
Lu Chengji's jaw tightened and his lips trembled violently. He knew that every word and sentence he said was hurting Lu Xixin.
However, he looked back and saw Mother Lu lying unconscious on the bed.
In the end, he was cruel.
"Lu Xixin, how do you think we should repay our kindness?"
Hearing this, Lu Xixin suddenly wanted to laugh: "Lu Chengji, are you done with this? Zhao Minyi has already asked me to pay it back."
"I know." Lu Chengji's voice was calm: "Mom asked you to stay at the Lu family for five days and five nights, but you didn't stay enough."
Lu Chengji said one by one: "Lu Yaqing hurt you and she has paid the due price;
Mom slandered you at grandpa's birthday party and echoed Lu Yaqing's words, but you were not substantially harmed. On the contrary, mom was hit. This matter is indeed mom's fault, but breaking the sky is not a big deal.
Also, regarding the moral kidnapping of you on Weibo, my father is the mastermind and has been duly punished, while my mother is at best knowing about it and not reporting it."
Lu Xixin was silent.
Speaking of this, Lu Chengji softened his tone: "Xixin, I'm not forcing you, I just want to tell you everything exactly, tell you, what has mom ever done for you?
She was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to you. She had a heavy haemorrhage that night and her body was severely depleted. It took five years of recuperation before she gave birth to Chengyuan.
When you were a child, you were weak and couldn't sleep because you cried at night. Your mother was worried about your nanny and kept watch over you every night. She didn't sleep a full night during the confinement period, and she fell ill immediately after the confinement period. Because during the lactation period, she refused to take medicine.
I carried it for half a month.
When you were lost, your mother went crazy looking for you. The pain of losing her daughter was so painful that she suffered a mental breakdown and went crazy for three whole years.
Xixin, I admit that after you came back, your mother did a lot of wrong things and hurt you. I won’t hide this for her, because it is the fact, but you can’t deny it.
She has truly loved you for five years.
Now she is unconscious, I don't want to force you, you can decide for yourself whether to save her."
