Chapter 722: Let’s celebrate the New Year together
Lu Jingxi showed a forced smile.
The door closed and she turned to look at the falling snow outside.
The snow petals are as dense as goose feathers, and the windless weather fills the field of vision like a tent.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly because she was too tired.
When I woke up again, it was already dark.
She held on to the wall and went downstairs. Zhizhi and Xingxing in the living room were the first to notice her.
"mom!"
"Mom, wake up!"
Lu Jingxi knelt down, put his arms around the two babies, and said, "Mom is awake. I'm sorry for making you worry."
Lu Huaici came out of the kitchen and helped her daughter sit on the sofa, "Are you hungry?"
Lu Jingxi shook his head, "Mom, I don't have my cell phone with me. Lend me yours. I want to call Lian Chengyu."
Lu Huaici didn't hesitate at all this time and handed over the phone, "Chengyu's number is stored in it."
Lu Jingxi sat on the sofa and dialed the phone.
After four or five rings, the call was connected.
She didn't speak immediately, as if her throat was being strangled and she couldn't make a sound.
Until a familiar, slightly hoarse voice came from the other end, "Xixi?"
It was obviously a familiar voice to her, but she lost the expectation she had before.
She responded, "Well, why didn't you call me."
"Mom said you've been sleeping, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Lu Jingxi's nose felt sore, "I feel uncomfortable."
"I'm sorry, I wasn't by your side when you woke up. David ran away. He is a big hidden danger after all, and I won't let this hidden danger continue to exist."
Lu Jingxi thought this reason was a bit weird, but couldn't find the reason. "Then you should finish it quickly. I want to celebrate the New Year with you. We haven't celebrated the New Year together in five years."
"The children also want to celebrate the New Year with you."
A reply with a smile came from the other end, "Okay, I promise you."
After hanging up the phone, she leaned against the sofa and stroked her son's head with her palms, trying to recall what happened after she was taken away by David.
I only remember seeing the familiar terrain, and then nothing else.
Lu Huaici, who was cooking in the kitchen, breathed out silently after seeing her hang up the phone.
During dinner, there were only two children and their parents in the restaurant.
Lu Jingxi asked suspiciously, "Where's the master? Ran Ran isn't here either."
Lu Huaici served her a meal and said, "Ranran is going home to be with her parents. Your master is out on business and will be back tomorrow."
The manor's population today is larger than usual.
But she felt that without Lian Chengyu, she seemed more deserted than usual.
During the meal, she kept asking Lu Huaici and Shi Jingting to confirm what happened after she was taken away by David.
The answers from the two couples were spotless. No matter how many times Lu Jingxi asked again and again, they would always get the same answer.
That night, Lu Jingxi and Lu Huaici slept.
The doubts in her heart never left her.
She turned over and met her mother's gaze.
"Mom, did nothing else really happen after I was taken away by David?"
Lu Huaici touched the side of her face, his eyes full of love, "No, Chengyu installed a positioning device in your shoes, so he found you quickly. You were just knocked out, nothing else happened."
Lu Jingxi frowned.
Lu Huaici smoothed the wrinkles between her eyebrows and said, "Don't be afraid, my parents are here, it's safe here."
Lu Jingxi moved closer to her, just like when he was a child, he would stay by his mother's side when he was injured.
After she closed her eyes, Lu Huaici turned off the bedside lamp.
When the light went out, a worried dark light flashed in the woman's eyes.
The snow in the Imperial Capital didn't stop overnight, and the next day it was completely white outside.
When Lu Jingxi got up, he saw the snowy scene outside the window and was transported back to five or six years ago in a trance.
It snowed heavily in the manor that year, so Lian Chengyu built a huge snowman for her.
She looked towards the lawn. The snow was flat and there was nothing there.
The disappointment in her heart clearly surfaced.
Subconsciously, I touched my phone, wanting to look through the photos stored back then, but my phone was not with me.
After washing briefly, she went to the child's room.
Zhizhi and Xingxing have already sat up and put on their clothes.
Seeing Lu Jingxi coming, the two little guys threw away their clothes and threw themselves into their mother's arms.
"Mom, I can't put on my own clothes, can you help me put them on?"
Zhizhi also held her arm and swung it around coquettishly, "Mom, can you braid my hair? It's snowing heavily outside, shall we go take pictures?"
It is a happy thing to be needed, especially in the role of a mother.
She sat on the bed and put on Xingxing's sweater, "Okay, mommy will do everything with you."
After Xingxing got dressed, she walked out of the room.
Lu Jingxi didn't take it to heart and carried Zhizhi to wash up and braid her cute hair.
As soon as the two of them came out of the bathroom, they saw Xingxing walking in, holding a cotton coat that was thicker and taller than him.
"Mom, sister, help me quickly, I can't see the road."
Xingxing is no longer as weak as before, and he even talks more. This is all due to Xuan Xiao's careful conditioning.
Zhizhi immediately went over to help.
Lu Jingxi also carried a thick white down jacket that belonged to her, "What are you doing with such thick clothes?"
Xingxing looked at her with a serious face and frowned, "I will go out to build a snowman later. Mom must not get cold."
At the end, he said something again, which made Lu Jingxi's eyes turn red.
"Dad is not at home, I will take good care of mom for him."
Zhizhi nodded vigorously, "I will also take good care of my mother!"
