Although Chen Chulu was foolishly called out by Chen Bailu since childhood, she was not stupid.
Hearing the word "living together", her thin shoulders shook slightly and trembled gently. The sweetness of the orange juice remaining between her lips and teeth turned into a hint of bitterness.
Huo Ruxi secretly grabbed her slightly cool little hand, holding her frivolous and handsome eyebrows, "Uncle, I admit that I, Huo Ruxi, used to be a little careful in my private life, but don't you give me a chance to reform and become a new person?
Besides, I used to be romantic, but I was not dirty. Moreover, I never took any woman back to my home. I was the first and last one."
"Ruxi, I mean..."
"To be honest, now, I can't live without the first manifestation."
Huo Ruxi's chest was filled with strong love, and a hot kiss was printed on the back of Shen Chulu's hand, with a depressing pampering look in his eyes, "I want to not see her for a day, I'm afraid I will go crazy."
The man's low and gentle voice flowed through Shen Chulu's cochlea, and his heart seemed to be teased by a soft feather, tender and itchy.
The same goes for her.
She didn't want to leave Brother Ruxi. If she couldn't see him, she wouldn't want to eat or drink; if she didn't hold him, she couldn't sleep.
Chen Guangjing's cheeks were hot. He had never seen anyone who had come here before, and had never seen such a sexy person!
In front of the elders, it’s too shameless!
"I don't want Chu Lu to live in Guanchao Manor for another reason." Huo Ruxi's expression suddenly became very serious.
Chen Guangjing was surprised, "What's the reason?"
"I'm afraid that Chu Lu will be bullied."
"What's this?"
Chen Guangjing's eyebrows were frowning, which made her even more confused. "Chulu is the pearl in my hand, Guanchao Manor is her home. Who can bully her in her own home?"
"Uncle, you don't often stay at home and you can understand that you don't know much about your own home. But you can't take it for granted that Chu Lu is really happy to live in this home."
Huo Ruxi didn't make it clear that Chen Bailu bullying his woman. After all, Chen Bailu is also Chen Guangjing's daughter. If he reports it regardless of the situation, he is slapping his future father-in-law in the face and making him unable to get out of Taiwan.
What's more, it's enough to have him to protect him.
Even though Chen Guangjing knew what the use of everything, he couldn't even understand the snake and scorpion in his family, and was he still hoping that he could really do anything to Chen Bailu?
Secretary Zhu stood beside him, his lips closed, and his intriguing glance at Shen Guangjing.
Everyone knows the entire Guanchao Manor that the fourth lady has been suppressed by Chen Bailu for many years and bullied by Chen Bailu.
Even Qin Shu, who gave birth to them and raised them, knew that only Shen Guangjing, who was his biological father, had no idea!
"Chu Lu, who dares to bully you in this family?!" Chen Guangjing stared at his cowardly little daughter and questioned her anger.
Chen Chulu felt sweaty on her forehead, half of her cherry lips, but she couldn't say a word.
Huo Ruxi felt her hands become wet in her palm, and hurriedly persuaded her to coax her in a low-kneading voice, "Chu Lu, don't be afraid, Brother Ruxi and your father are here, do you have any grievances or any sufferings? Just say that we will support you."
From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that Chen Chulu could tell all the bad behaviors of Chen Bailu bullying her, and she should also tell her and seek justice for herself.
Two big men stared at her with bright eyes.
After a while, Chen Chulu's lips trembled and he spoke, "No... no one bullies me."
"The first manifestation..." Huo Ruxi felt a sense of loss in her heart.
But when he stroked her thin spine with his big hands, he realized that sweat had soaked her clothes.
Huo Ruxi's eyes shrank deep, and his heart seemed to collapse, and it hurt so much that it was difficult to breathe.
He was still too forced to her. He shouldn't let her always think about the painful past and how to take revenge.
The person he loves doesn't have to do anything, it's enough for him to do everything.
"Is it... your sister bullied you?"
Chen Guangjing suddenly asked a question like a sharp arrow pierced through Chen Chulu's trembling heart.
She lowered her head, crumpled her skirt with her hands, and said nothing.
"Is that so? Is Bai Lu bullying you all the time? Tell dad, dad will make the decision for you."
"Uncle, you know the first revealing situation. She is not as good as the third lady. She can act coquettishly and say beautiful words to please you. Sometimes, because the other person is a family member, she is too kind and unwilling to break up with her relatives.
So she could only live alone and bear all humiliation silently."
Huo Ruxi couldn't stand it, and her eyes opened her lips with a cold look, "It's been so many years, and it's not interesting to pursue those. What's more, for you, the palms and backs of your hands are flesh, right?"
After saying this, Chen Bailu didn’t say anything wrong, but he almost called Chen Bailu’s name!
Chen Guangjing's face was extremely dark, and the big palm placed on her knees was tightly grasped.
Huo Ruxi slowly helped Chen Chulu up, and his strong arms naturally slid down to her waist, holding her in her arms, hugging her without any allowance, with a little domineering meaning.
"All the past has passed. I don't want to pursue it for your sake.
But it will be different in the future. Since I am with Chu Lu, I will make decisions about Chu Lu for everything. If someone dares to touch her, I will definitely make her pay the price of bleeding no matter who her father is."
After Huo Ruxi led Chen Chulu away, the atmosphere in the study was extremely depressing. Shen Guangjing could still feel the cold air in the air, and a strong sense of suffocation.
"So... Huo Ruxi also knows that Bai Lu has been bullying Chu Lu?"
Chen Guangjing looked at Secretary Zhu blankly, his heart twitched, and he couldn't accept it for a moment, "I just heard it accidentally that the servants at home also mentioned this matter, and even the servants knew it clearly... I don't know? I, a father, don't know?"
Secretary Zhu sighed: "Dr. Chen, don't blame yourself too much. You have to take care of such a big family and such a big group. It is understandable that you will inevitably have a sudden situation without three heads and six arms."
This is obviously a default.
Chen Guangjing supported the table with her elbows and hugged her head in pain, "As a father, I really feel ashamed of Chu Lu... I don't know that she was so unhappy at home..."
"But everything has passed. Now Miss Four has afflicted with Mr. Huo. He protects Miss Four very well, so you can rest assured."
The secretary said earnestly, "Miss Four is old and is no longer a child. You can't always keep her at home, not let her socialize, not let her contact with society, which is not beneficial to her condition.
And don’t you feel it? After Miss Four and Mr. Huo were together, they were much more lively and cheerful than before.”
Chen Guangjing nodded slightly.
Even he didn't know how long it took for him to see his little daughter laughing so brightly. Poor Huo Ruxi was really nice to her, and she felt happiness from the bottom of her heart.
"Bai Lu... I've really spoiled! That's her real sister, how could she do this!"
Chen Guangjing thought about how innocent and cute Chen Bailu was when she was a child, and now she is so heartbroken!
"Dong Chen, you should understand the principle that those who are close to vermilion are red, while those who are close to ink are black." Secretary Zhu said to the end.
Chen Guangjing's eyes were quiet and his jawline was tightened.
At this moment, a knock on the door sounded, and a delicate voice from Chen Bailu came: "Dad, are you here?"
"Enter."
The door opened, Chen Bailu walked in with a tray with a smile.
"Dad, today's thing was wrong, I caused you trouble. I specially prepared your favorite fruits and snacks to apologize to you.
Don't be angry with me, okay?"
Chen Bailu put the fruit on the table and walked over to try to cling to Chen Guangjing's neck like before. Often, after her low-level filial piety operation, Chen Guangjing's great anger disappeared.
However, this time, Chen Guangjing actually raised his hand to stop her, "I hope this is the last time you have made an action that is inconsistent with your identity.
You are the third lady of the Shen family. You are not a local rich man who is domineering with a few bad money and doesn't treat people as a person. Your words and deeds must be of class and style. Otherwise, what's the difference between them and shrews who scold the streets in the vegetable market?"
Chen Bailu's arms froze in the air awkwardly, smiling dryly, "Yes, Dad, I will never again next time."
Chen Guangjing didn't say anything, but he didn't move the things she sent.
"Dad, we will go to the racehorse in a few days. Didn't you say that my horse riding outfit looks good last time? I also customized a set for you. The designer has already delivered it in person just now. You go downstairs to try it. OK?"
Chen Bailu could see that the Shen Guang's atmosphere had not yet subsided, so she tried her best to please.
"Bai Lu, don't go to this horse racing party." Chen Guangjing suddenly spoke coldly.
"What?!"
Chen Bailu jumped straight away and lived in Bengbu. "Why don't you take me there?! You will take me there every year at the horse racing meeting!"
“This year, an exception.”
"Why?!"
Chen Bailu's eyes widened, and his facial features gradually began to twist, "At that time, the daughters and socialites from all the wealthy families in Shengjing will be present. How can you not take me there?!"
"I will take Chu Lu to this year's Jockey Club." Chen Guangjing lowered her eyelids and didn't even look at her.
"How can you?!" Chen Bailu's mind buzzed.
"Why not? Chu Lu is also my daughter and the daughter of the Shen family."
Chen Guangjing looked up at her at this moment, but her eyes were unprecedentedly cold, "And you have been there for many years, so you should be tired of socializing. It just so happened that Chu Lu hadn't been there yet, and many people in Shengjing didn't know her.
In the future, I will leave more opportunities to show my face like this, so that it will be fair."
Fair...fair?!
This man has been neglecting Chen Chulu for more than ten years, but now he is suddenly biased and asks fairness to her?!
"What? Looking at your expression, you are very dissatisfied?"
Chen Guangjing raised his eyebrows lightly, "As a sister, you should take care of your sister. You should share good things with your sister, right?"
"No, no, my dad... I just showed autism. You can take her there in that kind of occasion. What if she gets sick? How can she deal with it?"
"You don't have to worry about this, Mr. Huo will take good care of her."
Chen Bailu was so angry that her face turned red and white, and she was completely out of nowhere.
"Go out, I'm going to be busy."
Chen Bailu's expression was as white as frozen. The moment she turned around, her eyes were so full of hatred that she gritted her teeth.
