Chapter 249 Yes, we have a child!
.It must have been the alcohol, and it was nighttime.Her voice was laced with seductive charm: "Lu Qian, can you just let me have a quiet day"Lu Qian paused for a moment: "You've been drinking!""Yes,...The Huo family hall.
Ho Zhen Dong was very magnanimous. He pointed at Lu Qian's mother and said, "This is grandma!"
Xiaoshu is a little shy.
But he still walked up to the old woman, a tiny one pouncing into her arms. Old Lady Lu held the soft little person, her mood extremely complex.
Joy, more so guilt!
She was actually quite old, but she still insisted on hugging Xiao ShuoShuo and kissing him.
They came with a gift, trying to take advantage of the situation and arrange a marriage for their son.
Now, all the gifts have been given to the grandson.
Lu Qian sat beside her, his eyes fixed intently on the child for a moment before shifting to Huo Mingzhu across from him...
Huomingzhu didn't deny it: "Yes, we have a child!"
Lu Qian closed his eyes gently.
He calculated the time, it should have been his last time in city B, when he got her pregnant.
And she went to city C, she should know she was pregnant.
What was she feeling when she broke up with him
Lu Qian thought hard, then realized he and she... had walked into a dead end.
He is not a naive young man anymore. He knows that a woman can stay away from home for two years, raising a child alone, there must be more than just love for the child… there has to be hatred for him too.
Lu Qian's eyes were dark.
He suddenly remembered what Huo Shaoting said: A girl in her early 30s who doesn't get married and doesn't go home, where can she live a good life
Just as I was thinking, Huo Shaoting came back with Wen Man.
Huo Shaoting looked at the scene in the hall and smiled, "What's going on today Everyone is here"
He gently patted Shuo Shuo's face and then greeted Old Lady Lu.
The old woman quite liked him, and besides, she needed him to do some work at this time, so she couldn't help but favor him even more.
Huo Shaoting led Wen Man to sit down.
He looked at his own father.
Ho Chin also looked at his own biological son.
You kick me, I kick you... I don't really want to be the bad guy!
Finally, Mrs. Huo tearfully called out, "Zhendong!"
Ho Zhendong didn't want to lose face in front of his wife, so he took a sip of tea and smiled at Mrs. Lu: "The children are too naughty, let's see what they have to say!"
Old Mrs. Lu slowly rose to her feet, having a plan.
Wen Man's identity was the most delicate; she took Shao Shao's hand and took him out to play.
Without children, Old Mrs. Lu's life became much easier.
Lu Qian stood before her, displaying utmost deference.
The old woman spoke sternly: "Lu Qian, the Huo and Lu families are in-laws, and Mingzhu is your junior. You usually call you Uncle Lu... How could you do this! Now that the child is so grown up, our family doesn't even know a thing! You grew up under my care, didn't I teach you to behave like this"
Lu Qian's face was flushed with shame: "I'm sorry, Grandma!"
Old Lady Lu waved her hand: "You've wronged that young girl! You should know what to do, needn't I tell you"
Lu Qian hesitated for a moment.
He didn't hesitate, and went straight to Ho Chun-ming and his wife, kneeling gently before them.
Ho Zhen Dong and his wife were taken aback.
They didn't expect Lu Qian to be so decisive.
Someone of his stature wouldn't kneel down, let alone utter a soft word.
Ho Zhen Dong is not a person who insists on being right and refuses to let go.
He also knew his daughter. If she didn't truly like Lu Qian, how could she possibly endure hardship outside and secretly give birth to Shuoshuo
Besides, Shao Ting has already fought with him!
He couldn't say it himself, so he gave his wife a look.
Mrs. Huo didn't want the relationship to become strained. She helped Lu Qian up and said politely, "You and Mingzhu have already had ShuoShuo after all. As for what happens next, you two can figure it out yourselves!"
Grandma Lu was even more ashamed.
Ho Shao-ting looked at his younger sister: "Mingzhu, what do you say"
Huo Mingzhu looked at Lu Qian calmly.
He also looked at her.
She knew in her heart that with this child, his unsuitable would be broken...With the efforts of both families, he was willing to marry her.
But she refused!
Why would she agree to it
Huomingzhu's lips moved slightly, and Lu Qian guessed what she wanted to say and spoke first: "Let's talk alone!"
Ho Mingzhu looked at her brother.
Ho Shao-ting took a sip of tea and smiled faintly: "Let's talk privately! He can't eat you anyway. Besides, he's getting up there in years now and might not even be able to chew!"
His mouth, it's truly both nasty and venomous.
Huo Mingzhu agreed.
There are some things that are not convenient to say in front of elders...
Two people were talking in the flower hall.
Hu Mingzhu stood by the window, only giving him her back, and whispered: "The child is the last one we'll have! I didn't know until after we broke up!"
Lu Qian gazed at her departing figure.
He shook his head gently: "You're lying, Mingzhu! Didn't you know before we broke up"
Huo Mingzhu gently drew in a breath.
She paused for a moment before speaking, “Mr. Lu can’t be kept in the dark! Yes, I found out on the night we broke up! I wanted to tell you, but you said we weren’t suitable for each other.”
Actually, she knew it wouldn't work out between them, no matter what he said.
She is not without dignity.
Mr. Lu has so many mistresses, each one charming and alluring. What makes her, a young girl, think she deserves his heart It's just wishful thinking!
"Huo Mingzhu turned her body and smiled faintly: "My sister-in-law said, it's not that she doesn't want everything! She is with my elder brother for Huo Xi after all. Little Huo Xi needs care and a father... But Mr. Lu, Shuoshuo has never had a father since he was young, and his body is very good. We don't need to force the children to be together at all!"
She was much more rational than before: "If you want to see him, you can come to city B anytime, I won't stop you."
But to have her take ShuoShuo to City C, that was absolutely impossible.
She will never go back to City C for the rest of her life.
She said a lot.
Lu Qian didn't speak, sitting on the sofa smoking...
He was unlike his mother, thinking that having a child would complete him. He knew that precisely because of the child, Mingzhu hated him even more and was even less willing to forgive him!
Lu Qian didn't get to where he is today by being impulsive.
Even in the face of emotions, facing a woman he liked very much, and even his own flesh and blood, he could remain calm.
Because he has so much to think about!
In the time it took to smoke a cigarette, he seemed to have thought everything through. He asked her softly, "Have you made up your mind"
Ho Mingzhu hummed in response.
Lu Qian walked to her side, raising his hand as if he wanted to touch her hair, just like in the past. But in the end, he still hesitated, his hand falling halfway...
"After a long time, he whispered, 'Was it very hard for you during the two years outside' "
She nodded. "Yes!"
Lu Qian said no more, he took her into his arms.
Without any romantic feelings, not even the kind between a man and woman. It was like an elder caring for a younger one, holding her, silently comforting her...
Such tenderness was like poison to her.
Huo Mingzhu didn't want to fall, she gently pushed him away: "From now on, we are just Shuo Shuo's parents, nothing else!"
Lu Qian did not force her.
Under the curtain's shadow, he spoke in a low voice: "Mingzhu, when I am with you, there are no others!"
"It doesn't matter anymore!"
……
Lu Qian told Huo Mingzhu his decision.
Old Mrs. Lu was furious, thinking her son irresponsible.
The Huo family, on the other hand, remained very calm.
Ho Zhen Dong accepted Lu Qian's compensation on behalf of Huo Ming Zhu, and also gave alimony for Xiao Shuoshuo. These are all things a man should do.
He told Old Lady Lu, "Children have their own thoughts, it's normal! Besides, after so long, I think they don't have much feeling left… We won't stop you if you want to visit ShuoShuo in the future. Just keep things as relatives."
The old woman was so disappointed.
Mrs. Huo was very kind, she let the old lady stay in City B for a few more days at the Huo family's residence.
As for Lu Qian, he has a lot on his plate and has to rush back to City C in the afternoon.
That's it for now.
In the afternoon, I went to pick up Xiao Huo Xi. Wen Man was sitting in the passenger seat, still thinking.
Ho Shaoting smiled faintly: "Isn't this result normal With Mingzhu's soft personality, if she hadn't been hurt, she would have rushed into his arms two years ago."
He pondered for a moment and said, “She's changed quite a bit in the past two years!”
Wen Man's heart softened.
She tilted her head, teasing him deliberately: "Mingzhu is quite spirited! We shouldn't do this for the sake of the child..."
Huo Shaoting glanced at her.
He lightly pressed the accelerator and drove for a while before smiling: "Are we good now It's been two months, but we haven't had any intimacy at all, Wen Man... Do you call this being good"
Wen Man remained silent.
Arguing with him is never a good idea.
Both fell silent, their hearts still heavy with the weight of past events.
At the intersection, when the red light came on, Huo Shaoting lightly held her hand and whispered, "Dress up nicely for our anniversary celebration. For me, huh"
Wen Man hummed softly.
She wasn't heartless; she could feel Huo Shaoting had changed a lot.
Waiting for her, waiting for the children...
Including this time with his uncle and Mingzhu, he was very restrained.
They lived together, had children, and Wen Man was also willing to treat him better, so even though Ming Ming's implication was clear, on their anniversary night when he wanted something more to happen, she still agreed!
As for past matters, let time heal them slowly.
Wen Man didn't know that her soft whisper was incredibly important to Huo Shaoting.
He wasn't incapable of enduring it, he had gotten by for three years without a woman. Besides, now he could see her every day... What mattered was that she was willing to give herself to him.
Be willing, open yourself up, and trust him!aid lightly, "It's good to be a match made in heaven! Arrange it!"He doesn't need to be soothed emotionally.He was just thinking, since the only love he had didn't work out, he might as well find a su...
