Huo Huaijin sent Gu Nian back to the Lu family's old house, turned to look at her pale face, and asked with some worry: "Nian Nian, are you really not going to live with me?"
"I'm fine, brother." Gu Nian shook his head, "Let's wait until...Uncle Lu gets better and Lu Shiqian and I get divorced."
Father Lu's condition is unstable, and these things will irritate him now.
Seeing how determined she was, Huo Huaijin no longer forced herself, got out of the car and opened the door for her, "Then be careful and tell me anything."
"Okay, don't worry, brother."
Gu Nian thanked him sincerely. If it weren't for her brother's presence today, she couldn't imagine the consequences.
"Don't say such kind words." Huo Huaijin pretended to be angry and scratched her nose, "You should take a vacation first, adjust your body, and take care of yourself."
"I know. Brother, please go quickly and be careful on the road."
After Gu Nian finished speaking, he turned around and entered the yard first, then turned around and waved.
Huo Huaijin laughed helplessly, opened the door and got in the car.
The car sped away.
Gu Nian stood in the yard, with the empty land in front of her and the tall mansion behind her. She felt inexplicably lost.
She couldn't help but put her hand on her belly, where there was now a little life connected by blood to her.
…
When Lu Shiqian came back in the evening, Gu Nian was helping Lin Miao serve the dishes.
She glanced at the man lightly, said nothing, and walked sideways.
"Shi Qian is back? Wash your hands and get ready to eat."
After Lin Miao finished speaking to him, she heard Lu Shiqian give a gentle hum, and then went upstairs to change clothes.
Her eyes wandered back and forth on the two people's backs, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Why do you feel that the relationship between these two people has not improved at all, but has become even more incompatible?
In fact, her feelings were not wrong at all.
Even while eating, the two of them showed no expressions and said nothing. The awkward atmosphere made Lin Miao feel uncomfortable.
She ate quickly and returned to the room, leaving the two young men to stare at each other at the dinner table!
"Do you think they will quarrel?"
Lin Miao made Lu Qiming a cup of tea with a thoughtful look on her face.
"Can't make any noise."
When talking about the two of them, Lu Qiming was angry and helpless, "That boring gourd Lu Shiqian, what else can he do besides cold violence?!"
"But I feel... Nian Nian is also cold. It's different from the way she used to be with Shi Qian in her heart and eyes."
Lin Miao wiped the cream on her face and said thoughtfully: "Anyway, the current situation is not right. Oh...these two children are really worrying."
Between two people, they are not afraid of a big fight, but they are afraid that no one cares about it, and that is really irreparable.
But now Gu Nian and Lu Shiqian give the impression that neither of them cares about them.
"Didn't you make that tonic soup last time? Did it work?"
Lu Qiming felt that he could not sit still and wait for death, but had to take measures.
"Um..." Lin Miao stopped and recalled for a while, "It shouldn't be particularly big, and since Shi Qian is a doctor, he can smell it right away. Maybe he didn't even drink it."
Lu Qiming exchanged a look with her and affirmed: "Then let's take a stronger dose!"
…
After Lin Miao went upstairs, Lu Shiqian and Gu Nian were left alone at the dinner table.
"I checked in the hospital today, are you really okay?"
I thought about my chopsticks for a moment, but I didn't expect him to ask a question suddenly.
care?
But the man's voice had no warmth, and he didn't even look at her.
"fine."
She replied indifferently and lowered her head to eat.
The doctor said that she will start to take nutritional supplements recently. No matter whether she is in a good mood or not, her meals must be delicious.
Lu Shiqian raised his eyes and glanced at her. He felt that she seemed to have an extra appetite today and her mouth was full. Could it be that the man didn't feed her at noon?
Thinking that Gu Nian and that man were now getting along day and night, he put down the bowl and chopsticks with an ugly expression, got up and went upstairs.
Gu Nian glanced at his back and once again lamented how incomprehensible this man was, but she had to keep her mood right now and had no time to talk to him. She could do whatever she wanted.
After eating, she watched TV in the living room for a while.
Now that she and Lu Shiqian were in the same room, Gu Nian didn't want to have too much communication with him. It was better to wait until bedtime to avoid accidentally quarreling again.
Lin Miao went out for a trip. When she came back, she saw herself sitting in the living room and felt very bad.
It seems that the old man is right, this strong medicine has to be taken!
Nearly an hour later, Lin Miao came out with a bowl of hot soup.
"Nian Nian!"
There was an inexplicable brilliance in her eyes as she looked at Gu Nian, "Shi Qian has been busy with the company's affairs recently. I stewed some soup to replenish him. You can serve it to him."
"Aunt Lin, I..."
"Nian Nian!"
When Lin Miao saw that she wanted to refuse, she quickly interrupted and said with a hint of melancholy: "Look, I...am not his biological mother after all. It's not appropriate to disturb him at this late night, so you just
Please help Aunt Lin with this, okay?"
This was said and sighed, which was really irresistible.
Gu Nian had no choice but to nod: "Okay."
"Remember to let him drink it all. I have been simmering this soup for a long time! I just went out to buy fresh oxtail."
Of course, there are also many powerful medicines, which we must not let these two people know about.
"……good."
When Lin Miao saw her carrying soup upstairs, she smiled with satisfaction and went back to her room to report the results to the old man.
The patterned carpet extends to the door of the room. The door in front of you is unlocked, revealing a gap. The light from inside seeps through, and you can see a man standing in front of the window.
Gu Nian hesitated for a while before pushing the door open and entering.
She walked straight to Lu Shiqian, nodded her chin at the soup on the tray, "Aunt Lin asked me to bring you the soup, drink it while it's hot."
Lu Shiqian glanced at the soup, then moved his gaze back to the window, "Let's put it there first."
Gu Nian frowned, thinking of what Aunt Lin had told her, and patiently said, "You can drink now, I have to take the bowl down and wash it."
"Are you ordering me?"
His voice didn't sound angry, but his eyes were cold and distant, even cooler than the night outside the window.
Gu Nian scratched his neck, thinking that it was like this anyway, a broken jar would be no worse than a broken jar, so he simply said: "Yes. How about it?"
The man in front of her stared at her for a while, actually picked up the bowl of soup and drank it all in one gulp, then quickly put the bowl down and turned to look out the window.
It was pitch black outside, not even a star, and I didn't know what to see.
Gu Nian withdrew his gaze and carried the tray downstairs.
Not long after she left, Lu Shiqian felt an inexplicable restlessness rising in his body, like a fire getting stronger and stronger.
This was obviously not normal. He thought about it while pulling on his tie, and suddenly his movements froze...
Gu Nian... the soup just now!
Thinking of this woman's uncharacteristically tough attitude just now, Lu Shiqian felt confused.
What does Gu Nian mean?
Why does he have to drink this kind of soup... What on earth does she want to do!
