Chapter 36 Make Up My Decision
Lu Ziqi sat in front of his desk, checked the information in the computer, and kept making phone calls. The ashtray next to his hand was full of thick ashes, and the room was also smoky. His whole eyes were red and swollen, and there was also a lot of blood in his eyes.
After a while, Liu Yan sent a large pile of information. Liu Yan didn't seem to be in a good state. It was two o'clock. He was shouted by Lu Ziqi, which must have affected his normal rest.
As soon as he entered the room, he was really unbearable by the smoke in the room. Liu Yan coughed gently, and Lu Ziqi twisted the smoke in his hand into the ashtray and extinguished it.
"Lu Shao, this is the information." Liu Yan stepped up and put the information on the table beside him.
"Hm, go down and have a rest." Lu Ziqi nodded faintly.
Liu Yan hesitated for a moment, "Lu Shao, do you want me to help you?"
"No, go down." Lu Ziqi lowered his head to turn over the information in his hand and did not look up at Liu Yan at all.
Hearing the footsteps of leaving and the slight sound of closing the door, Lu Ziqi raised his head, pinched his neck, breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand to get the information, but accidentally touched the information and spilled it all over the ground.
Lu Ziqi hesitated for a moment and bent down to pick up the information. He happened to see a dusty photo under the desk. He trembled and took out the photo. Lu Ziqi looked at the four people in the photo with a bright smile and a happy face.
But why, a good family, now he is the only one left.
Lu Ziqi was only thirteen or 14 years old at that time. Lu Zichen was only five or six years old and was held by his father. Lu Ziqi stood in front of his mother. The four people were very happy and harmonious.
Lu Ziqi's impression of his father has always been very stable and responsible, and it is impossible to find a lover, but the facts are there. Over the years, Lu Ziqi has always understood why his father did such a confused thing at the beginning. He obviously loves his mother very much.
After a pause, Lu Ziqi stretched out his hand and pinched the photo. He felt a little guilty in his eyes. He quickly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
Lu Ziqi had already been psychologically prepared. Lu Zichen would not answer his phone, but he accidentally got through.
"Brother..." Lu Zichen's choking voice came from the other end of the phone.
As soon as he heard Lu Zichen's voice, Lu Ziqi's heart was touched, "Brother, I found the photo. I misunderstood you. I'm sorry..." At the beginning, when Lu Zichen rebelled, Lu Ziqi misunderstood that he lost the only family portrait in the family and lost his temper with him.
Lu Zichen's temper is very similar to Lu Ziqi's. Both of them are stubborn and refuse to bow their heads to admit their mistakes. Yes, they will never wrong themselves to admit it. In this case, it has been several years. Obviously, the two brothers are not as good as Qiao Mu.
Lu Ziqi heard Qiao Mu say that there was an assassination and Lu Zichen was injured today. He was a little worried and afraid of losing Lu Zichen. After all, the fact that he was his own brother, and the blood was thicker than water could not be changed.
"Brother, I'm sorry, I've been too wayward these years." Lu Zichen paused, and his voice was a little choked.
Lu Ziqi took a deep breath and smiled faintly, "Okay, it's okay. Have a good rest. The past is over. Don't mention it again. After saying that, Lu Ziqi quickly hung up the phone, trembled his hands, put his mobile phone on the table, took the photo, stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and sobbed in a low voice.
Yuan Manyu lay in ** and stayed up all night. She repeatedly thought about Yin Zhexun's words and finally made up her mind to leave Lu Ziqi.
After making this decision, Yuan Manyu's heart suddenly felt empty, unspeakable loneliness and sadness, an inexplicable panic.
Don't let yourself think too much, cover your head with a pillow and fall asleep.
When he woke up in the morning, Yuan Wanyu got up and packed up his things and walked to Lu Ziqi's study. He happened to see that the table lamp inside was not turned off, and there was a smell of cigarettes that had not dispersed.
Curiously pushed the door, and there was a strong smell of smoke coming to her nose. She quickly stretched out her hand to cover her nose and took two steps forward. She saw Lu Ziqi lying on the table and fell asleep, and the ashtray at hand was full of ashtrays.
Yuanyu took two steps, opened the window, and a breeze blew in, blowing away the smell of smoke and breathing fresh air outside the window. Yuan Manyu turned his head and looked at Lu Ziqi, who had been lying on the desk. He stepped forward, sat opposite him, looked at his peaceful sleep, stretched out his hand, touched his nose, his mouth, and his eyes were deep. I'm reluctant to give up.
Lu Ziqi clenched the photo in his hand and moved his head slightly. Yuan Mangyu curiously carefully pulled out the photo from his hand and saw the four people above. One of them could easily recognize Lu Ziqi and the other was a little boy. Yuan Manyu looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
Yuan Manyu looked at the happy smiling family above, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. He put the photo on the table next to him, stretched out his hand and held his cheeks, staring at Lu Ziqi all the time.
He is the only one who lives in such a large villa. Under his bright appearance, no matter how much power and money he has, it is far better to have a stable, happy and warm home.
If she leaves, Lu Ziqi will be the only one left.
Seeing that it was still early, Yuan Manyu took a blanket to cover Lu Ziqi, and then walked out of the study.
When he came to the kitchen, Yuan Manyu saw that Li's mother was preparing to cook.
"Xiaoyu, why did you get up so early and take a break?" Li's mother turned her head to see Yuan Wanyu and looked at her with a smile, and her eyes were full of kindness.
"When I woke up, I couldn't sleep all the time. Li's mother, take a break today. I'll cook. Yuan Manyu smiled and came forward to take Li's mother's hand.
Li's mother was stunned for a moment and quickly waved her hand: "No, Miss Yuan, you go to rest and I'll cook."
Yuan Manyu hesitated for a moment and smiled at Li's mother again. His smile was a little bitter, "Let me do it. Isn't Lu Ziqi at home? I want to cook a meal for him.
Hearing Yuan Mangyu's words, Li's mother was stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly at Yuan Manyu and nodded, "Well, well, I'll help you."
"Ye." Yuan Manyu nodded, then put on his apron and began to cook.
Li's mother has been helping her behind Yuan Manyu.
"Lu Shao has never brought a girl back before. His life has always been very plain and simple. With you, it seems that Lu Shao feels a lot of relaxation." Coldly, Li's mother spoke lightly.
Yuan Wanyu's body trembled, and the knife in his hand suddenly cut his finger, and immediately oozed blood.
She stood there in a daze and did not respond. Li's mother did not see it, but turned her back to Yuan Manyu and kept bowing her head to wash vegetables in the pool.
Lu Ziqi walked through the kitchen and accidentally saw Yuan Manyu standing there stunned. Then he looked at her hand, and there was already a lot of blood oozing out.
Almost rushed in. Lu Ziqi pulled Yuan Wanyu to the edge of the pool. Li's mother quickly let go. When she saw Lu Ziqi, her face changed: "Lu Shao..."
"Lu Ziqi... I'm fine." Yuan Manyu turned his head and looked at Lu Ziqi with a gloomy face, and quickly struggled to back his hand.
"Don't move." Lu Ziqi opened his mouth coldly, grabbed Yuan Wanyu's finger, and washed it under the faucet, with a little anger and reproach in his eyes.
After washing, Lu Ziqi pulled Yuan Manyu out and walked out to see that there was no more blood flowing out.
"Lu Ziqi, I'm fine. Let me go. I'm going back to cook." Yuan Manyu suddenly withdrew his hand and looked at Lu Ziqi, with a little dodging in his eyes.
Lu Ziqi's whole body suddenly stopped there and looked back at Yuan Manyu, with a little indifference in his eyes: "Li's mother is cooking here. You don't need to cook. Just have a good rest."
"But I want to cook for you personally." Yuan Manyu looked at Lu Ziqi aggrievedly and said stubbornly.
Lu Ziqi was stunned and stared at Yuan Mangyu. "I ate it last night." After saying that, he turned around and walked to the sofa in the living room.
"Eh?" Yuan Wanyu was stunned and realized that there seemed to be some porridge and dishes left last night. It turned out that he ate it, and his heart was full of unspeakable happiness.
As soon as Yuan Manyu turned around, his wrist was led by Lu Ziqi. He didn't know where he found a Band-Aid, carefully tore it apart, and slowly stuck it to the wound.
"Thank you. I'll cook for you and wait for me." Yuan Manyu smiled, pecked at the corners of Lu Ziqi's mouth, and then turned around and got into the kitchen.
She decided not to leave and spend the three years with Lu Ziqi here.
Three years is enough to impress and change a person.
Sitting at the table, Lu Ziqi waited for Yuan Manyu to bring the food. After Li's mother and Yuan Manyu presented the food, Yuan Manyu lifted the lid of the porridge, put a bowl of porridge in front of Lu Ziqi, and put another bowl on the other side. "Mother Li, let's eat a little together."
"No, Miss Yuan, Lu Shao, I have something to do at home. I'll go back first. I'll be back soon." Li's mother untied her apron and shook her head at Yuan Wanyu and Lu Shao, with a guilty smile on her face.
Lu Shao didn't say anything and lowered his head to drink the porridge in the bowl. Yuan Manyu sat on the chair and said to Li's mother, "Well, Li's mother, slow down on the road."
"I know Miss Yuan." Li's mother took a look at Yuan Manyu with a smile, and then walked out.
After Li's mother went out, Lu Ziqi and Yuan Wanyu were left in the room. Lu Ziqi had been drinking porridge and silent. Yuan Manyu felt that the atmosphere was also a little embarrassed. He did not open his mouth and had been eating.
After dinner, Lu Ziqi returned to his study. Yuan Wanyu called and asked Anru to go shopping together.
"It's here, Xiaoyu, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first. Slow down and take a taxi back later? Why don't I pick you up later?" An Ru happened to come out of the hospital and was about to go back. She received a phone call from Yuan Mangyu, turned a corner and went to the villa area to pick up Yuan Manyu to the shopping square.
"Ye, sister, slow down your way." Yuan Manyu gave An Ru a big smile. OK, hurry up and get in." An Ru nodded and smiled as she watched Yuan Wanyu walk into the shopping mall. The mobile phone suddenly rang. An Ru looked at the caller ID, smiled, and pressed the answer button: "Husband..."
"Anru, where are you?" There was an anxious and nervous voice at the other end of the phone, and he seemed relieved to hear An Ru's voice.
An Ru was stunned, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly appeared in his heart. He looked up at the outside of the car. Everything was calm. There were vehicles coming and going, and there were crowds in and out. There was nothing unusual. "I'm at the door of the shopping mall."
"Why did you go there? Listen, go to a crowded place right now. When I pick you up, don't come out.
"But..." Before Anru finished speaking, the other end of the phone was hung up. Anru frowned, started the car, parked at the parking place in the shopping mall, and then got out of the car. Looking at the street, a black car caught An Ru's attention. She has been with Qiao Mu and Lu Ziqi for so many years, and she has also experienced a lot of assassinations and increased her vigilance. However, to An's surprise, Qiao Mu is now a famous underworld boss in City A, and some people dare to attack her.
"Husband, I'm in a cafe, a black license-free car on the street opposite the door, and a black car on the south side of the school gate." An Ru can see that the two cars are sitting on people in black, wearing baseball caps, and the brims are so low that they can't see people clearly.
"OK, go in and hide it quickly. I'll be there in five minutes." Qiao Mu's voice was very anxious, as if it was in the car. He didn't know how lucky he was. He was glad that he arrived at the shopping mall and inexplicably saved her own life.
Joe's villa:
Qiao Mu hurriedly walked to the room with the woman in his arms, and the servants and bodyguards outside saluted one after another: "Sir, madam..."
As soon as he entered the room, Qiao Mu breathed a breath, pulled An Ru, and looked up and down: "Wife, are you all right?"
"It's okay, husband, what the hell happened?" An Ru shook her head with some worry in her eyes. She stretched out her hand and took Qiao Mu's hand.
I want to give him some peace of mind.
"I didn't expect that I made a mistake in business. Our people had a traitor." A trace of cold flashed in Qiao Mu's eyes, with a shallow smile on his handsome face, but it gave people a feeling of indifference and bloodthirsty.
"Husband, I'm fine. Be careful, okay? I'm really afraid. I'm afraid of losing you." An Ru's eyes were slightly red, stretched out her hand, hugged Qiao Mu, put her chin on his shoulder, and slowly closed her eyes. The scene of An Yu's death in front of her five years ago was still vivid. She didn't want to bear the heartbreaking pain of losing her loved one again.
Holding Qiao Mu tightly in his arms, Qiao Mu sighed deeply, touched her hair, and solemnly promised her: "Wife, I promise you that it will be all right. As long as this time, help Aqi deal with business matters, solve the affairs of Leng Xiao, and deal with the disgusting flies behind you. Drop, I promise you that I will take you abroad to live in seclusion. I will take care of the things in the help. I will always be with you, okay?
"Really?" Hearing Qiao Mu's words, An Ru looked up happily, with unconcealed joy in her eyes, like a child.
Qiao Mu kissed her on the forehead, and his handsome face was also full of smiles. It seemed that he had not seen such a happy smile as An Ru for a long time.
