perfect location

The specific location of the orphanage where Xia Yiming stayed was in a small town near the capital, which was relatively remote.Because of the long time interval, the former dean has passed away long ago, and now the person who takes over the orphanage is Mr. Wang, the grandson of the dean.

Lu Xingshu did not reveal his identity, fearing to scare the snake away, so he used the pretext of finding relatives to investigate.He didn't mention Xia Yiming, but said he wanted to find Xu Xun.Mr. Wang received him politely without expressing too much doubt.

Generally speaking, it is very difficult for private orphanages to operate.In the absence of financial resources, it probably won't last more than ten years.Unless the person who runs the orphanage has a lot of money, Mr. Wang dresses plainly and behaves like an ordinary citizen.

Lu Xingshu looked around at the brand-new environment, and deliberately boasted: "This orphanage looks like it has been renovated inside and out. It seems that Mr. Wang pays attention to it."

"After all, it was left by my grandfather, and I myself want to keep driving it." It was not difficult for Mr. Wang to find Xu Xun's information. "I have an impression of this Mr. Xu. After he got married, he gave him many times We donate. He is a very kind person, but the last time I saw him was when I was in elementary school."

There is not much information about Xu Xun, but there is a photo.Lu Xingshu frowned, feeling deja vu.

"This is a photo of Xu Xun and my grandfather. That day he had a child with him, so big." Mr. Wang gestured on his knee, "It's very cute, about two years old."

He said, glanced at Lu Xingshu, and asked in doubt: "Then it could be you?"

Lu Xingshu politely denied: "No."

"Oh... I think you are about the same age." Mr. Wang apologized, "Mr. Lu, Mr. Xu's information is only these. The rest of the information you want is also here. I hope you can find your relatives as soon as possible."

"Thank you." Lu Xingshu took the information and still stopped in place.

Mr. Wang smiled with emotion: "There are many caring people now. There is a writer who is about the same age as Mr. Lu and has been donating money to our orphanage. That's why I can make the environment so good."

Hearing the word writer, Lu Xingshu was silent for a moment.He glanced at Xu Xun's photo and said nothing more.

Maybe a coincidence?

Lu Xingshu always felt that Xu Xun's appearance when he was young was very similar to Nanmu, especially those eyes.Sitting in the car, he edited a text message to Xia Chen, telling him that he might be back late tonight, and he didn't have to wait for him for dinner.Xia Chen replied very quickly, he should be looking at his phone.Lu Xingshu couldn't help but make a phone call and told Xia Chen to rest.

Xia Chen on the other end of the phone was unhappy: "You don't take me with you to the orphanage."

"Too out of the way." Lu Xingshu's coaxing tone was very forceful, "Be obedient, it's cold outside, so don't go out recently."

"Then you come back early."

"What, miss me?"

Xia Chen pursed his lips and laughed, but his voice still pretended to be calm: "I didn't."

"Then I'll be back later." Lu Xingshu switched to headphones, put down the handbrake, and slowed down his tone with a gentle smile.

When Xia Chen heard it, he was unhappy, and muttered: "You know it clearly... I thought about it. I really thought about it." He repeated it, answering it very seriously, and said pitifully, "I can't follow You."

"No, what if Dabao and Xiaobao have opinions?" Lu Xingshu joked.

"..."

"Hey, let me tell you good news when I get home tonight."

Xia Chen muffled: "Can't you say it now?"

"I still need to make sure, okay, hang up, I'll drive." Lu Xingshu coaxed, "Good boy." This made Xia Chen reluctantly hang up the phone first, Lu Xingshu hooked the corner of his mouth, I can't help but want to finish it quickly so that I can go home early to accompany Xia Chen.

I was supposed to come to the orphanage to investigate last month, but who knew that there was an urgent task at work.Lu Xingshu had to go and execute it himself, and the investigation of the orphanage was also related to many private matters of Xia Chen's family. It was inconvenient for Lu Xingshu to hand it over to others, and Xiao Ming had many other things to attend to.

Furthermore, he was worried that Xia Chen was at home, so he wanted to forcefully push him away.But this task is related to the investigation process of PCI-1, once Lu Xingshu let go of it, the situation will be difficult to control.Leave it to other teams, and he's worried they'll screw it up.

After being troubled for a few days, Xia Chen found out, and immediately went to the research center to make a physical examination report on mental stability, so that Lu Xingshu could go out with peace of mind.As a result, after going there for a month, Xia Chenhui's intestines turned green.Fortunately, no matter how difficult the task is, Lu Xingshu will always find time to find an opportunity to video chat with Xia Chen every few days and ask about Xia Chen's recent situation.

As soon as he returned to the capital, Lu Xingshu went to the orphanage in Xia Yiming's photo without stopping.

But at this moment, he has a question that makes him have to go to the Lu family's old house again, and he doesn't even care about rushing back to the villa to reunite with Xia Chen.

Mrs. Lu doesn't like gossip, and always feels that other people's affairs have nothing to do with her own: "Why do you ask such a thing?"

Hearing that Lu Xingshu asked about the Nanmu family as soon as he came back, Mrs. Lu frowned and changed the topic, "Why did you come back alone? Didn't Xia Chen bring it back? Hey, although there were many conflicts before, you still have to let us Meet him, we are not tigers..."

Mrs. Lu chattered about peeling apples for Lu Xingshu.

"Mother, can you answer my question first?" Lu Xingshu looked at the time, he had to rush back to have dinner.

Mrs. Lu was helpless: "Nanmu is indeed not Mrs. Nan's own, but her husband..." She lowered her voice, thinking it was something disgraceful, "I raised a third child outside."

"Can you tell me more about it?" Lu Xingshu frowned.

"Ms. Nan is in poor health and can't have children, so when her husband came back with a pregnant mistress, she endured it. She thought that the problem would be solved by giving mistress a sum of money after giving birth. The master didn't want to leave. There was a lot of trouble at the time, I remember... Oh yes, I remember Xia Chen's father was here."

Lu Xingshu was surprised, before asking anything, Madam Lu got up and hurried to the study: "Wait a minute, I'll find something for you to see."

Unable to wait for Mrs. Lu's dawdling, Lu Xingshu also went to the study room, and the two searched for a long time before they found a photo.The Lu Xingshu inside was about one year old, and was held by Mrs. Lu, wringing his face and crying.

"Color cameras were just on the market at that time, and your father bought one for me. When the weather was good, he wanted to take you to the park to take pictures. When I passed by Nan's house, I saw a lot of noise. Several people made a noise out of the villa. There are a lot of onlookers around, and that young lady with a bruised nose and swollen face was pushed and shoved by servants." Mrs. Lu sighed, "It's also pitiful, probably because she wanted to take the child with her, but was stopped."

In the photo, apart from the crying Lu Xingshu, behind him was Mrs. Nan who was hugging Nanmu, and a man who was pushed to the ground.Looking at the back, I'm not sure if it's Xu Xun.

And there was another person beside him, standing in front of him, preventing others from beating him.

Lu Xingshu recognized him as the young Fu Yanzhe.

"Here, this is Xia Chen's father. He participated in several art exhibitions at that time, so I recognized him." Mrs. Lu said regretfully, "He is very talented in painting."

Mrs. Lu is not very clear about the specific matters.I only know that it was too noisy at that time, and there were many people around watching.Fu Yanzhe happened to pass by, stopped him, and took the mistress away.But within a few days, I heard that the mistress was missing a child, so she went back to Nan's house by herself.

Mrs. Nan wanted to monopolize the child, so naturally she would not give him a good face.But fortunately, Mrs. Nan is not too much to the children.Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Nan were classmates when they were students, and the husbands had a little relationship on weekdays, so she met the mistress a few times when she went to Nan's house.It was quite strange that the main house and mistress lived under the same roof. Mrs. Lu couldn't help but take a few more glances, and was deeply impressed by this Beta mistress.

Lu Xingshu simply took out Xu Xun's photo, and Mrs. Lu stared at it for a long time: "Yes, it seems to be him... Looking at it now, he looks very similar to Xiao Nan. Hey, Xiao Nan is very small He committed suicide at that time." When she said Xiao Nan, she was referring to Nanmu.With that said, Mrs. Lu put away the photo of Lu Xingshu crying.

"Why did you take this photo?" Lu Xingshu asked helplessly.

"Isn't it because Xiao Zhang didn't press the camera button properly, so I accidentally left this photo. I saw you crying very interestingly, so I left it." Xiao Zhang is the housekeeper of the Lu family's old house, and Lu Xingshu has always Call him Uncle Zhang.

"..."

Lu Xingshu coughed in embarrassment, Mrs. Lu still doesn't know him?It must be because he was afraid of losing face, so he smiled: "Don't worry, I won't show it to Xia Chen. By the way, you have to go home for the New Year this year, right?"

"let me see."

"What are you thinking, I have to come back. It was my fault to go forward, but you are also responsible. If you had said that you liked him, how could I give him a bad face." Mrs. Lu was anxious to see her grandson, and pulled her down. face, complaining to his son.

She doesn't understand the love of young people, she now blames Lu Xingshu for disliking and liking for a while, which made Xia Chen and them have no good relationship before.

"But father he..."

"Your father, I will tell you that you will always bring people back during the Chinese New Year." Seeing that Lu Xingshu hesitated, Mrs. Lu became furious, "You were at the border before, and if you don't go home for the New Year, I won't say anything about you. .Now that everyone is in the capital, why don’t you go home for the New Year? Your father has a tough temper, but he always has to compromise for the sake of his grandson.”

Mrs. Lu made it clear what she said, but Lu Xingshu couldn't help it, so he had to say, "I'll think about it again."

He couldn't say anything, and said twice in a row, I'll think about it, Madam Lu kept a sullen face and didn't let him eat, and sent him out early.Lu Xingshu couldn't wait to be kicked out, and returned to his villa refreshed.

Lu Xingshu found it quite novel, and the concept of grandchildren had a great impact on the older generation.It was the first time for him to be kicked out of the house by his mother. You know, since he was a child, every time his father taught him a lesson, his mother was always the first to rush forward and stop him crying.Fortunately, Lu Xingshu has a good temperament, otherwise Mrs. Lu's pampering method would probably be crooked.

In the future, his big and small treasures must not fall into Mrs. Lu's hands, otherwise...

With Lu Xingshu's click of his tongue, he could already imagine the images of the two little devils who were pampered to heaven.He shook his head, laughed unconsciously, and he also arrived at the villa.The living room was silent, Xiao Ning seemed to be still busy in the kitchen, the door of the study on the second floor was open and the lights were on.The sunset in the winter evening is very fast, and the breath of twilight spreads quietly.

Lu Xingshu tiptoed up, only to see Xia Chen leaning on the sofa, with his head slightly tilted, sleeping in a daze.He was holding a book with a few pages in his hand, which was a collection of poems that Lu Xingshu bought earlier.

He walked over, gently pulled the collection of poems away from Xia Chen's hand, and took a blanket to cover him.

Xiao Ning was almost ready for dinner, and came up to call for someone, but she didn't expect that Lu Xingshu had already returned.As the end of the year approaches, every household is busy, many servants leave work early, only Xiao Ning stays overnight.

"General, Madam insisted on waiting for you to come back before serving dinner. Madam was too hungry just now, so she ate some biscuits to pad her belly." Xiao Ning explained.

Lu Xingshu frowned: "In the future, don't wait for me."

"Madam insists."

"Then you can't let him eat biscuits, you have to cook some warm ones for him." Lu Xingshu sighed, took Xiao Ning outside the study and asked, "During my absence, how is Xia Chen doing? "

Lu Xingshu increased Xiao Ning's salary so that he could take good care of Xia Chen and take care of him personally.In order to be worthy of Lu Xingshu's treatment, Xiao Ning has been worrying a lot this month. She laughed softly and said, "It's good, but I like to sleep. The two young masters always make trouble at night, and my wife is even more lethargic during the day. Mr. Li I came to see my wife in the next day, and the psychiatrist also came together, and all the tests said that they were all up to standard."

Hearing this, Lu Xingshu finally calmed down from the worry in his heart.He asked Xiao Ning to go to rest first, while he found a place in the study, took a book and began to read.In order to wait for Lu Xingshu to come back to have dinner together, Xiao Ning specially made stewed soup for dinner today. They were stuffed in the pot and set the heat preservation time, so they were not afraid of getting cold.

Knowing that Lu Xingshu is coming back today, Xia Chen didn't sleep well last night, and now he fell asleep for an hour and a half without waking up.

In addition, I just ate biscuits to pad my stomach, so I couldn't wake up.After sleeping until [-] o'clock at night, they were still woken up by the two little guys in their stomachs. They probably knew that their father was still hungry, so they couldn't bear to help him wake him up.

"Wake up." Lu Xingshu put down the half-read book, walked over, took Xia Chen into his arms, and kissed his forehead, "Are you hungry?"

Xia Chen obviously hasn't woken up yet, he moved his body and found the most comfortable position, leaning on Lu Xingshu, and said softly, "When did you come back?"

"Not long." Lu Xingshu couldn't bear Xia Chen's current state, and lowered his head to kiss him.

Xia Chen pushed and shoved: "Why do you kiss each other as soon as you come back?"

"Don't you like it?" Lu Xingshu kissed for a few seconds, and said intentionally, "Just now you said you missed me, but now you won't let me kiss you. It's better to be honest when you were in the army. Nurse Li said that you sometimes take small steps."

Xia Chen was speechless, and couldn't find any rebuttal for a while, his cheeks were slightly red, so he could only let Lu Xingshu kiss and warm him for a while.The long-lost Alpha pheromone surrounded him again, his lips were sticky from Lu Xingshu's kiss, Xia Chen licked Lu Xingshu's lower lip with his tongue, looking very satisfied.

"Okay, how can you be so greedy."

Xia Chen pricked up his ears: "I'm greedy?"

"I don't even kiss anymore, and you still lick me." Lu Xingshu wiped the moisture on his lower lip with his fingertips, and a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, "You miss me too much, don't you?"

"..."

Why didn't Xia Chen know that Lu Xingshu was so glib before, but this set was very useful to him.Xia Chen said honestly: "Yes, I thought about it too much. Sleeping alone at night is miserable, and no one cares if the baby bullies me." He pursed his mouth a little, showing weakness and acting like a baby.

bang-bang-bang-

Three fireworks exploded in Lu Xingshu's heart.
