Chapter 42 - Tell him (3) to catch bugs
Looking at Chi Cheng’s alert appearance, Dong Jiashu laughed suddenly. She’s just a little more beautiful makeup, why do children treat her one or two as bad.
Instinct told her that the identity of the child was not simple. Yueyue can have a bad feeling for her, but he can’t.
Although it is not uncommon for Daqian World to hit his face, his facial features made her have some reveries.
With a high probability, this child is inextricably linked to Lu’s.
Thinking like this, Tong Jiashu’s mouth evoked a smile, “Come, children, these are for you.”
Tong Jiashu turned out a box of candy like magic. She painted graffiti children’s drawings on the exquisite iron box, and she handed it to Chi Cheng generously.
Chi Cheng opened his big eyes, looked at the sugar box for a moment, and his heart moved slightly.
His hands were still behind his back and he didn’t pick up. It looks good, but it’s a stranger’s thing.
Tong Jiashu raised her eyebrows unexpectedly. Shouldn’t a child of this age simply be deceived?
She crouched down and tempted, “Children, don’t you like it? Then what do you like to eat, tell the aunt, the aunt will buy it for you.”
Tong Jiashu suddenly became friendly, which puzzled Chi Cheng. He frowned and shook his head persistently. “No, I’m going home.”
Tong Jiashu turned a deaf ear, saying, “Do you like electric toys? Remote control planes, cars, ships?”
Tong Jiashu knew that Xia Youzhi bought these toys for Yueyue.
It’s a pity that Yueyue, as a typical little girl, doesn’t catch cold at all. As soon as I bought it home, I threw it all into the horns.
She was also distressed about the money for toys, which would come in handy.
After waiting for Chi Cheng to answer, Tong Jiashu instructed Xia Youzhi to wipe away all the remote-control toys and retrieve them without any intention to let Chi Cheng go home.
Chi Cheng stomped anxiously: “I want to go home.”
Tong Jiashu laughed and said, “No rush, no time, it’s still early, play at your aunt’s house for a while? Aunt won’t treat you badly.”
At the same time, Yueyue was shrinking in the corner, looking for help at Chi Cheng.
She said pitifully, “Chengcheng, can you stay with me again?”
Yueyue’s tone is the same as when she was bullied by senior children in kindergarten. She said Cheng Cheng don’t leave, probably meaning that he would be bullied if he left.
Chi Cheng sighed, raised Bai Nen’s index finger, and said earnestly: “Then just a little while, only a little while.”
Tong Jiashu kept the children’s conversations in ears and said happily, “So your name is Chengcheng, what is Chengcheng’s last name?”
Chi Cheng’s alert remains: “I don’t know, I’m Cheng Cheng.”
Tong Jiashu rubbed his head with a pretense, and nodded, “Oh, I see.”
Cheng Cheng, the child’s surname is Cheng.
Not the last name “Lu”?
At this time, Xia Youzhi brought a large box of electric toys.
Many toys were not even unpacked after they were bought, and were wrapped in large paper cases.
Brand new, bright and spotless.
Even though Chi Cheng was a sensible kid, he couldn’t help but have a keen interest in them.
His sight was unknowingly absorbed in these mini cars, airplanes, and ships.
Mom never gives him access to these.
Tong Jiashu noticed the change in Chi Cheng’s mood, and handed the toy to his eyes with satisfaction.
“What does Chengcheng like? I’ll give it to you.”
Chi Cheng had a hard time, his head was crooked, and his aunt didn’t seem so bad.
Tong Jiashu naturally said, “Cheng Cheng wants to go home and tell her aunt and mother’s phone number, and the aunt will let them pick you up after a while, okay?”
Chi Cheng didn’t want to hear the word “dad” mentioned by others, and he swallowed: “Aunt Xia knows my grandmother’s phone number, just call her.”
Tong Jiashu realized for a moment that Chengcheng and Yueyue were so familiar, they must be regular customers.
She said “Oh” meaningfully.
“Okay, Chengcheng and Yueyue are fun. I’ll ask Aunt Xia Chengcheng’s contact information and let grandma come to pick you up.” Tong Jiashu groaned with a smile, “Yes, you can call me Aunt Tong.”
When he heard that he could go home, Chi Cheng knew that Tong Jiashu was not the “trafficking man” who loved to catch children in the legend.
He responded politely: “Oh, well, thank you Aunt Tong.”
Until she saw Tong Jiashu leave the room, Yueyue slowly stretched her curled body and stood out from the corner.
Chi Cheng asked her in confusion, “Yueyue, Aunt Tong is your mother?”
Yueyue bit her lip reluctantly, and murmured “Uh-huh”.
Chi Cheng looked complicated.
He knew that “death” was not a good word, and even, it was sad.
Why would Yueyue say her mother was dead?
Doesn’t she love her mother anymore?
Isn’t the best mother in the world?
However, the word “dead” doesn’t sound good, and Chi Cheng doesn’t like hanging it on his lips. He didn’t ask his doubts, but thought dumbly.
Yueyue knew that he was unhappy, and lowered his head, his voice aggrieved, “I’m sorry, I didn’t lie to you intentionally. But I don’t like mom. If she dies, I can never see her again.”
Chi Cheng is not an emotion expert. With his mother as the world, he still can’t understand Yueyue’s mind and asks inexplicably: “Why … why don’t you like mother?”
“There are more reasons than stars in the sky.”
Despite the ceiling above her, Yueyue looked at the sky in depression.
Then she said nothing.
It’s just that, my mother threw her to the godmother from an early age, and counted the number of times of home every year with her finger.
Although she is a child, she knows who treats her well.
When she returns, she will bring her special gifts, especially beautiful dolls.
But when she came back, she often stayed with strange uncles.
They didn’t wear any clothes in the room.
She looked scared.
Chi Cheng saw her silent, and her own thoughts were in her head. He asked earnestly, “Yueyue, is it because Aunt Tong said he would give me candy and toys? Are you upset? You can rest assured that I won’t ask for them, they are still yours.”
Yueyue hurriedly waved her hand, learning the appearance of a godmother, and politely said, “No, it’s not your reason. Cheng Cheng wants to eat whatever he wants.”
There were plenty of toys and snacks around them, and adults didn’t bother, and soon there was a laughter in the room.
…
Tong Jiashu was lost in thought.
At the first sight of Chi Cheng, Tong Jiashu’s first reaction was Lu Jingyan.
Even though it is ridiculous and unreliable to recognize relatives through looks, because almost everyone can find a person who is 80% similar to his appearance on the earth, but Chi Cheng is still too much like Lu Jingyan.
From facial features to face shape to temperament invisible.
The second response was soothing. Because Shu Bai and Lu Jingyan have been bound.
Since the last contact with Shu Bai, Shu Bai has never contacted her again.
I don’t know how Shu Bai’s decision was made, Tong Jiashu thought, with Shu Bai’s temperament, she mostly ran aground.
Tong Jiashu sighed softly, this friend was really exhausting. Because she is occluded, if you don’t go to her, she will never come to you.
But there is no way, her friend identified by Tong Jiashu is to fight for justice for a lifetime.
Tong Jiashu was pregnant unexpectedly in a hidden rule with investors. Encouraged by investors, she gave birth to Yueyue and redeemed several local properties accordingly.
So white.
To the outside world, Lu Jingyan is a man of steady restraint. In her opinion, it was the same.
Just because of an accident-to Tong Jiashu, this accident is trivial. For the women in the circle, it was just one of a thousand and one nights.
Not to mention Lu Jingyan is a man–
He could miss the whole five years.
Listening to the tone may even take a lot of energy to find it.
Tong Jiashu almost thought that Shu Bai was the only woman who had had a relationship with Lu Jingyan.
But in her memory, although Shu Bai hadn’t had particularly good resources, she didn’t break the schedule from beginning to end.
She has played a supporting role in more than a dozen movies and TV series, and always appears on the screen. There is no sign of pregnancy and child birth, and Cheng Cheng cannot be her child.
Tong Jiashu would rather be thinking too much.
She pulled Xia Youzhi into the room furthest from the princess’s room. The room was small, and the entire space was filled with the strong perfume smell of her body.
Tong Jia relieved her voice and asked her, “There is a branch, what’s Cheng Cheng’s name?”
Xia Youzhi and Chi Cheng had no interest. Instead, Tong Jiashu asked her to take care of Yueyue, and also provided food and food.
So she told Tong Jiashu truthfully, “His name is Chi Cheng. He is a classmate of Yueyue in the kindergarten and a good friend of Yueyue. He often visits home.”
Tong Jiashu was startled, and asked, “Chi Cheng? Is’ chi ‘a pond’ or a late one?”
Xia Youzhi shook his head shyly. “I don’t know about this. I haven’t read the roster. I just heard Yueyue’s class teacher mention it.”
Tong Jiashu twisted the eyebrows covered with eyebrow powder and suddenly became serious: “Well, I know, you go and watch the children first, I still have something to do.”
“Thank you, there are branches.”
“You’re welcome.” Xia Youzhi nodded and turned to leave.
Tong Jiashu leaned against the cupboard, feeling chilling back.
She recalled the conversation between Lu Jingyan and Chi Ying in the bamboo forest, and the years in which Chi Ying disappeared.
Chi Cheng’s “late” should not be Chi Ying’s “late” …
With so many surnames in the world and so many similar looks, why couldn’t she find a reason to convince herself.
This is a coincidence too.
So what’s going on with Shu Bai?
Tong Jiashu could no longer imagine it, she called Shu Bai’s phone.
The melodious ringing bell echoed for ten seconds in the narrow and narrow room. Shu Bai finally got up the courage and glanced timidly at the name of the call.
The three words that fell into sight were Tong Jiashu, she sighed with relief.
After sending the text message, Shu Bai was nervous and trembling with nervous hands and feet. She threw the phone far away and didn’t dare look at it—
Shu Baisheng was afraid that Lu Jingyan would call in the next second and question her, dismantle her, and punish her.
But what is intertwined with tension is expectation.
Just like when I was a student when I got my grades, although I was nervous, there was still a faint hope in my heart, because there is also a certain probability that things will go in a good direction.
Shubai slowly connected the call.
Dong Jiashu’s voice sounded: “Nothing, what are you doing?” When Dong Jiashu remembered her name, the first word was dragged long, the second word was bitten lightly, and it was very recognizable.
Shu Bai still trembled his teeth: “No, nothing … I’m not busy …”
When Dong Jiashu heard the opposite, he asked directly, “What happened? So nervous?”
“It’s all right.” Shubai bit her lip. She was annoyed that her nervousness was always caught by others the first time, trying to calm her voice. “Are you calling … is there anything wrong?”
Tong Jiashu was so annoyed by his white-faced bad words that the volume was a bit louder: “Can’t you call if you’re fine?”
“Well, I didn’t mean that.”
“Okay, I’m really looking for you. I’m not polite to you, I just said it.”
“Ok.”
“Baibai, you have dealt with Mr. Lu in bed. Do you think he is experienced?”
“Ah?” Shu Bai didn’t expect that the topic directly cut into her inner sensitive point, holding her hand tightly.
“I think Mr. Lu keeps thinking about it, and thought he was a very compassionate person.”
There seems to be something in Tong Jiashu’s words. Shu Bai’s voice is soft and waxy, and he is not confident: “Why do you say this …”
Tong Jiashu seemed to ignore her question and continued to ask: “You said, is it possible for Lu to have something that happened with Chi Ying five years ago?”
Strong uneasiness condensed in Shu Bai’s heart, she said tremblingly: “Ah? Did you find anything?”
“I saw a child who is very similar to President Lu today. It ’s a very special one, and the child ’s last name is” late. “In addition, Chi Ying disappeared just after the dinner five years ago. I always think … is there a lot of coincidences? “
“Are you telling the truth?”
“Exactly, the photos will be sent to you later.”
After a pause, Tong Jiashu seemed to feel that he was too assertive, and said, “Oh … it may be that I think too much. You also know that my daily brain is relatively large, but my first feeling is this. “
“…” Shu Bai said in a panic. “Jiashu, I have something to do now, I’ll tell you later.”
Before the words fell, she hung up the phone in a hurry.
Shu Bai immediately turned on flight mode.
She stared dullly on the phone, the room was too dim, and the screen light seemed to be dazzling.
Shu Bai’s first thought was to withdraw the text message.
Because her brain was blank, she actually felt alive. Shu Bai quickly turned off the flight mode with a thunderbolt, and entered this question in Baidu.
After browsing through several answers, she felt bitter.
Sure enough, it was heaven and earth.
When Shu Bai was preparing to switch the flight mode back, the fuselage suddenly vibrated.
She froze and her phone almost fell to the ground.
Even though Tong Jiashu complained that Su Bai suddenly hung up the phone-and said it was okay the other day, but used the excuse of being busy one second later-she still sent Shu Bai a photo of Chi Cheng.
Shu Bai froze, the photo was taken in secret, and it was a bit confusing, but I can still see that it was a very delicate and beautiful child.
From a distance, his back is straight, and his short hair is soft and slightly curly. The dark eyes are as bright as agate stones, and the nose is thin.
Ordinary people may not associate him with Lu Jingyan, because his face is fluffy and full of collagen.
But if you look closely, you can discern the outline of the lower jaw from the fat little face-when you grow up, you must be arrogant.
It seems like a children’s version of Lu Jingyan.
Suddenly, she could understand Tong Jiashu’s confusion.
Whoever knows this news will be like a blockbuster.
Even worse for her.
Shu Bai comforted himself “don’t panic” while turning off the machine.
It was just that he accidentally entered his room, and it was accidental, not intentional. Lu Jingyan should not blame her.
What’s more, Sister Chi Ying Xue pushed away in every possible way. Lu Jingyan may not know the existence of this child. He is also a key witness of their overnight song …
Big deal, she doesn’t want this phone number. Lu Jingyan will most likely not be held accountable for who she is. Who will not be a turtle?
There are so many people in this world called “Shu Bai”.
Su Bai thought this way, and there was a sudden knock on the door of the living room.
“Bang-bang—” With a bang, he slammed on the inferior wooden door like a storm, smashing into her impenetrable heart.
Debt collectors came again.
Obviously this time she did so well in the shelter …
This means that she is moving again.
Shu Bai closed his eyes silently, letting tears slide down his cheeks.
When the last life-saving straw was wet, she lost all the strength and courage to struggle.
…
When Chi Ying returned home, there was silence in the living room.
Without that immature “mom”, there was no warm and soft hug.
The heart was empty, as if there was a night wind pouring into it.
Chi Ying frowned and asked Xiang Chi’s mother, “Mom, Cheng Cheng, why aren’t you home?”
Mother Chi took it for granted and said unhurriedly, “He has gone to play with fellow scholars, and he hasn’t returned yet. It’s not too late, and I’m going to pick him up.”
“Classmate? Is it Yueyue?”
“Yes.”
After hearing a positive answer from Chi mother, Chi Ying could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Chi Cheng has been to Yueyue’s house. It should be said that he is more at ease than other fellow scholars.
“Tough work, Mom,” she said.
When Chi Chi went out, she did not forget to glance at the bag in Chi Ying’s hand. It was a luxe children’s clothing brand.
She said, “Sakura Sakura, I bought so many clothes for Chi Cheng again.”
Chi Ying shook her head, “It was from a friend.”
Chi mother raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Did you tell your friend about Chi Cheng?”
“No, it was the director who met Chi Cheng at the mall last time. He … guessed it.”
Chi mother gave her a meaningful look and said, “Sakura Sakura, there is still a long way to go in life. If you meet the right person, don’t be stubborn.”
…
Tong Jiashu sent Chi Cheng downstairs.
Chi Cheng bounced to Chi’s mother for a moment, and shouted sweetly, “Grandma.” The child’s voice penetrated the night, and it was sweet and touching.
Tong Jiashu asked with a smile on his face, “You are Cheng Grandmother? Hello, I am Yueyue’s mother.”
As she talked, she looked at her late mother seriously.
Grace and elegance are oozing all over the body.
“Um.” Chi Chi looked back with the same sharp eyes. “I haven’t seen you before.”
Tong Jiashu explained briskly, “It was forced by work, and her godmother was the one who accepted Yueyue before.”
“I will spend more time with my children,” Chi mother said as she took Chi Cheng’s small hand and was ready to leave.
Tong Jiashu still smiled, “Work forced.”
Chi mother thoughtfully, she glanced at the villa lightly, and has yet to meet Yueyue’s father.
Chi mother frowned.
“It’s not the kind of job you imagine.” Tong Jiashu guessed the thoughts of Chi’s mother, and the radian of her lips continued, “I’m an 18-line actor.”
Then, Tong Jiashu posed a gesture of air kiss to Chi Cheng, and said kindly and enthusiastically, “Cheng Cheng, always come to Yueyue’s house to play.”
Chi Cheng raised his mouth, his eyebrows narrowed, and he did not speak.
He took his grandmother’s little finger in silence and returned home.
…
After Lu Jingyan had finished the meeting, time had slipped to ten o’clock at night.
He strode from the conference room, still in a suit and leather, with a straight figure.
Jiang Chong followed closely behind.
Lu Jingyan quickly returned to the office, it was late, and he eagerly wanted to say good night to Chi Ying.
When I turned on the phone, I saw a multimedia message from an unknown number.
The picture was a familiar scene deep in his memory, which made him suddenly startled.
After seeing the word matching in the picture, Lu Jingyan froze completely, his eyebrows deepened.
After a while, he called back to a strange number, and a mechanical tone prompted to shut down.
There was confusion and perplexity in his eyes.
Seeing this, Jiang Chong couldn’t help worrying: “Is there any problem? President Lu.”
Lu Jingyan silently asked him: “Who is Shu Bai?”
Jiang Chongzhen for half a second and said, “The woman you met in the Central Building last time, you asked her where Miss Chi was.”
At the end, he added: “It was the heroine of the hot search incident.”
The name Shu Bai may be forgotten by Lu Jingyan, but not by Jiang Chong.
He still remembers the horrifying afternoon when the rushing fire pulled down the hot afternoon …
Lu Jingyan twisted his long eyebrows deeper and deeper.
Not long ago, Chi Ying also mentioned to him the hot search heroine.
Lu Jingyan recalled Shu Bai’s features, not very clear.
“Send me that photo.”
“Ok.”
A few moments later, Jiang Chong brought up photos of the hot search headlines, and attached some white photos.
She looks pure and flat.
Lu Jingyan knocked gently on the desktop.
Instantly, he made his judgment.
She can’t be.
The passage of time has washed away many things in the world, except that the memory of that night has not been diluted.
Lu Jingyan still remembers that the light and fragrant aroma of the women in the consciousness, the smooth and delicate touch of the skin, the soft waist, and the almost perfect curve.
This trembled his entire body and soul, restraining his desire for more than ten years, like a bankruptcy.
He also remembers that the next morning, the bright sunlight was impenetrable with thick curtains. No trace of her was found in the room. The scent of **** was diffused in the air, and the gorgeous redness was on the sheets.
He has always been strong and steady, with deep sorrow and regret.
He hired the best detectives in the country and tried his best to find her. For five years, he found nothing.
All videos were completely destroyed.
Who designed that night, who sent her to his bed, what purpose was it for, who was she …
Lu Jingyan knew nothing.
He even thought that night was just an illusory dream.
Until you meet Chi Ying.
Almost at first glance, his memory retreated involuntarily to the night of five years ago, where she and the vague figure overlapped closely.
Then Lu Jingyan heard his blood boil and swell.
What followed was a nightmare that tore him into the abyss of pain.
Even if Chi Ying repeatedly denied, he also deeply believed that the person was her.
As for why Shu Bai knew the night he was five years ago, how he could get such a photo, and why he deceived him.
This was one of the few clues he had gained over the years, but he fell into a deeper mist.
…
At night, Lu Jingyan was quickly dragged into a cruel nightmare by heavy drowsiness.
The vision was as red as ever, Che Ming scratched the eardrum, and the smell of rain was permeated.
He usually wakes up suddenly when he is near the vehicle. Tonight, he tried his best to stabilize the dream, tolerated the severe pain of the heart, and approached her.
Strong consciousness seems to be able to stop the nightmare from dissipating.
Chi Ying’s features were clear and identifiable, her face was as white as snow, her eyes were broken with tears, and she was swallowed in the heavy rain with her life.
Every sense of touch made him feel suffocated. Watching them happen again and again, but never had a chance to change.
After looking at her face really well, Lu Jingyan finally awakened, and the corners of her eyes became wet unconsciously.
The large beads of sweat rolled down the delicate jaw line, and fell on the handsome and clear collarbone, wetting the thin clothes.
In consciousness, he shook his hand and called Chi Ying’s phone.
The mechanical prompt sounded for a second, and Lu Jingyan quickly sobered up and hurriedly cut off.
What is he doing? It’s two o’clock in the morning.
Self regret lingered, Lu Jingyan sat by the bed, rubbing his eyebrows with one hand, waiting for the fierce and painful heart to calm down.
The pale moonlight slipped from the gap in the curtains, and the room was silent.
At this point, the phone suddenly sounded.
At the other end of the phone, Chi Ying tentatively asked, “Lu Jingyan?”
There was a thick nasal sound in her voice, which was the usual laziness and drowsiness between half-dream and half-wake, and Lu Jingyan was so distressed that she just rubbed her into her arms.
When speaking, he was already taking a softness that he could not detect: “… woke you up?”
Her voice was soft and soft, and with concern, came from the earpiece, “It doesn’t matter, did you have a nightmare?”
“No nightmares.” Lu Jingyan’s voice was slightly dumb, “… I accidentally clicked wrong, sorry.”
Chi Ying was accustomed to Lu Jingyan’s meticulous meticulousness, even if he said the word “sorry”, it didn’t seem rusty or indifferent. Because the man’s voice was low and light, with a touch of intoxicating tenderness.
“So, did you work so late?”
“Just got up at night.” Lu Jingyan said, “It’s late, go to bed.”
Chi Ying blinked, her eyes fell on the white face on her side, her sleeping face was particularly good.
She smiled softly, “OK.”
…
Lu Jingyan closed his eyes and lay still in bed, but it was hard to sleep.
The text message, the picture, and the tenderness that made him nostalgic five years ago, fell heavily on his chest.
Distressed, mixed with a trace of anxiety.
Until the knock on the door rang, he opened his eyes in the dark.
The hour hand is already pointing at three in the morning.
The housekeeper rarely slammed his door at this time, and Lu Jingyan raised his eyebrows habitually.
He got up and turned on the lights, trimmed his collar slightly, and his voice was low as usual: “Please come in.”
The steward opened the door, stood respectfully at the door, and said, “Master, Miss Chi is here.”
Later, Chi Ying came in calmly and smiled: “Lu Jingyan.”
Seeing her, Lu Jingyan flashed an uncontrollable shock. Soon Bo Nu covered his eyes, “Do you know what time it is?”
Chi Ying chuckled, earnestly and gently: “I’m not worried about you yet.”
She knew that Lu Jingyan had a nightmare every night, but it was still the first time she called her. Lu Jingyan is not a man who will show weakness, it must be too much anxiety and pain.
Lu Jingyan’s eyes were complicated, with deep emotions. After a short while, he whispered, “Fool.”
There was a dark emotion in his voice, and Lu Jingyan moved his heart and took her into his arms. The soft touch made his heart tremble slightly.
Chi Ying landed quietly in his thick chest, and the nasal cavity was intertwined with a dense and clear atmosphere.
Until I heard Lu Jingyan’s stuffy voice: “Five years ago, were you?”
She lifted her head, and smashed into the eyes of those galaxy-deep seas.
This is not the first time Lu Jingyan asked her, but this time, Chi Ying bent her eyes and smiled, “It’s me.”
She could feel the strength of the big palm around her waist tightened noticeably, and the man’s voice was deep and dumb, full of cherishment.
“I’m sorry,” he said.
“Why apologize? It’s not your fault …” Chi Ying looked at him earnestly, with a gleam in his eyes, “Lu Jingyan, I have one more thing to tell you.”
