The best way to get revenge on a rival

It was summer at that time, even in the evening, the heat of the scorching heat was still lingering on the surface of the land, the heat without a trace of wind made people unbearably irritable.

It was time to get off work, and the taxi was stuck along the Huancheng Road for more than an hour before arriving at the Lilong Hotel that Qiu Zixuan had reserved. This restaurant is not an ordinary four-star hotel. If you know people, you can see There are often some dignitaries who have appeared on TV here, and it is a restaurant where the public often gathers.

Qiu Zixuan actually made an appointment at such a place.

After getting out of the taxi, Lu Xuming glanced at the newly renovated restaurant in front of him compared to [-] years ago, but he didn't feel much, but he didn't understand Qiu Zixuan's thoughts, the relationship between the two had become frozen like this, Want to sit down to dinner?

After reporting Qiu Zixuan's name, someone took him into the elevator, all the way to the 4th floor, where there were boxes of all sizes, the man walked along the long corridor to the door of a box, knocked on the door, After getting the answer, he opened the door and let Lu Xuming in.

This is a medium-sized single room, with a design style of brown and off-white, which looks solemn and elegant. A simple and elegant round table is placed under the soft crystal, and a blue and white porcelain vase with white roses is placed on the table. Inside the arched door wall on the right side of the dining table is a solid wood tea table, surrounded by several white sofas, and Qiu Zixuan is sitting on that sofa.

He was wearing a simple white shirt and dark gray trousers. He was leaning casually on the sofa. His slender legs were crossed. He was obviously a man in his 50s, but the years had not left too many marks on his face. On the contrary, after years of precipitation, it becomes more mature and mellow.

Qiu Zixuan walked over and sat down, the person who brought him asked if they wanted to order food, Qiu Zixuan said: "Let's have some tea first, let's talk about something."

After speaking, Qiu Zixuan glanced at Lu Xuming again, Lu Xuming obviously had no intention of eating, "I'm free."

The waiter then went to make tea for them, set out treats for them, and then closed the door for them to go out. With the sound of the door being gently closed, the private room fell into dead silence, and Lu Xuming didn't drink tea, watching Qiu Zixuan take a leisurely He took a sip of tea and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Qiu Zixuan obviously didn't have any intention of reminiscing about the old days, so he went straight to the point and said, "Don't meddle in the affairs of Xiaojing and Zheng Heng."

"What did you say? Are they together again?" Lu Xuming stared at Qiu Zixuan closely.

Qiu Zixuan nodded.

Lu Xuming clenched his hands tightly, as if holding back his anger, but he didn't say anything, he just looked at Qiu Zixuan coldly: "I won't let him go this way."

Qiu Zixuan shook his head with a smile, and his tone was still gentle: "You haven't fulfilled half of your father's duties since you were born, so you just go back to have a look once a year, and teach you a few words with a cold face. I don't think you are qualified to say that. talk."

When Lu Ningjing was born, Lu Xuming brought home the child who was waiting to be fed. At that time, he was employed. At that time, it was very serious to get pregnant before marriage, and his job would definitely not be guaranteed. He studied so hard in the cold window. For many years, he had to bear the expectations of his parents and family in exchange for this job, so at that time he originally wanted to give his child to others to raise.

At that time, his second brother and second sister-in-law had given birth to Ning Hao for 7 years, and they finally got pregnant with the second one. They lost it in only 5 months. It was said that it was a boy, and they were already formed. The two were heartbroken. It just happened that Lu Xuming got a child for no apparent reason and wanted to give him to someone else to raise, so he took him over to raise him.

Later, Lu Xuming resigned from his job to start a business, so he could raise the children openly, but he saw that the second elder brother and the second sister-in-law took care of the children so well, just like their own ones, and because Ning Hao was mischievous since childhood, and Ning Jing was more well-behaved, So he felt even more distressed towards Ning Jing, after all, he couldn't bear to take the child back, and just gave him a fixed living allowance every year. Speaking of it like this, he really didn't have any kindness in nurturing Ning Jing.

Qiu Zixuan's words touched Lu Xuming's pain point, but he still said with a stubborn face: "It's my business whether you are qualified or not. If you come here to be a lobbyist for this matter, I don't think there is any need for us to continue talking."

He had already suffered a lot when he walked this path back then, and he would not just watch Ning Jing repeat his mistakes, and he also knew about Zheng Heng, whose family background was much deeper than that of Qiu Zixuan back then. Know how to let him die.

"Lu Xuming, when I was in college, I said that you are pedantic and old-fashioned. Now it seems that I am right. Now it is not more than [-] years ago, but your thinking has not advanced at all."

"Hmph, wasn't it 20 years ago?" Lu Xuming sneered, "Same-sex marriage is legal now? Parents won't stop it? Will they not be looked down upon? Qiu Zixuan, even after 100 years, this kind of thing will not change. "

After saying that, Lu Xuming stood up, "I have something to do, goodbye."

"Xiaojing is pregnant." Seeing Lu Xuming turn around resolutely and leave, Qiu Zixuan dropped a bomb.

"..." Lu Xuming felt that something was wrong with his ears, "Say it again!"

"Xiaojing is pregnant at 7 months, there is no way to miscarry, you can try to break them up," Qiu Zixuan said, his tone became cold and hard, "Lu Xuming, I don't know where you hate so much. I have to impose it on my children. I don’t care if Xiaojing likes men and women. I only care about whether that person treats him well. If you dare to do something that makes Xiaojing sad, I won’t talk to you so kindly next time gone."

This was the first time Qiu Zixuan threatened Lu Xuming with his identity.

After leaving the Lilong Hotel, Lu Xuming didn't rush to go to Lu Ningjing's side, instead he took a taxi and went to the seaside, and found the place he used to go to, quietly blowing the sea breeze.

He was thinking about some things that he couldn't figure out after more than [-] years of thinking.

In fact, it was hatred, more resentment, he had decided to abandon everything back then, his parents would not want any job, even under threat, he decided to start a new life with Qiu Zixuan, but Qiu Zixuan went to get married and have children instead.

When the bright red invitation was delivered to him, he really lost all reason, and even went back directly, wanting to hold Ning Jing to his wedding, and let his fiancée know the fact that he has such an older son. Things almost worked out.

But what's the use, he's still married, has a lovely daughter, the family lives harmoniously, and is said to be a model family.

So he doesn't want Ning Jing to go down this road at all. Family, society, public opinion, all kinds of pressures have to be suppressed. This kind of love is not guaranteed yet. He hasn't been with that Zheng Heng for a long time. Let it go. It's also easy, so last year, he pressed hard.

However...it was too late.

***

"Why hasn't my uncle come here yet?" Lu Ningjing glanced at his watch, it was past 10 o'clock, "Why don't you go back first."

If Lu Ningjing's uncle wants to come here, he will definitely live here, regardless of the relationship between Lu Ningjing and Zheng Heng, but this place should be given up to the elders, otherwise it would be too impolite to let the elders stay in the hotel, so Zheng Heng Hengzai still went back to live in the past few days when his uncle came over.

How could Zheng Heng go back now? According to his uncle's temper, he couldn't beat him even though he knew he was pregnant, "It's okay, just sit down first."

"I'll give him a call."

Lu Ningjing took the phone and was about to dial it when the doorbell rang. He nervously grabbed Zheng Heng's hand, "Here we come."

"Don't be afraid," Zheng Heng held his hand instead, "I'm here."

Lu Ningjing regained his composure and ran to open the door. At first, he thought that his uncle's face would change drastically when he saw him and Zheng Heng, and then it would be another unpleasant experience, but no, his uncle stood outside the door with a tired face, looking When she saw him, she first swept his stomach around, without saying a word.

"Uncle..." Lu Ningjing called out hesitantly, his uncle's appearance was more terrifying than getting angry.

"Let's go into the house first," said his uncle.

"..." With this tone, Lu Ningjing looked at his uncle in disbelief, but saw that his uncle's eyes were bloodshot red, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine," his uncle walked into the room with them with a strong sense of weariness in his voice, "I know everything."

"..." Lu Ningjing thought about thousands of ways his uncle would look like after seeing him and Zheng Heng together again, but there was no such thing. He stared blankly at Lian Ming, who seemed to have mastered everything, a little unsure. Overwhelmed.

Zheng Heng helped Lu Ningjing sit down on the sofa, and was a little shocked when he heard Lianming's words. Seeing Lu Ningjing's confused face, he squeezed his hand and said to Lu Xuming: "Mr. Lu, I..."

"Don't talk yet," Lu Xuming interrupted him rudely, but he didn't regard him as an enemy like before, but asked Lu Ningjing, "How old is it?"

"Ah?" Lu Ningjing couldn't change the topic of his uncle.

"abdomen."

"..." His uncle even knew this!This is too bad.

Zheng Heng also frowned.

Lu Ningjing didn't tell anyone around him about Lu Ningjing's affairs, not even his third son who had the best relationship with him, his uncle just came to City A, and he didn't even have contact, how could he know?

There are two situations. First, Lu Ningjing has his brother-in-law by his side, but this is unlikely. According to his brother-in-law's temper, he cannot kill Lu Ningjing even though he knows that Lu Ningjing is pregnant.

Second, Qiu Zixuan.

Xiaofan, Wang Ma, his parents, and the doctors who examined Lu Ningjing, none of these people who knew would tell Lu Xuming that after excluding these people, only Qiu Zixuan remained.

Putting together all kinds of doubts these days, Zheng Heng felt as if he had grasped something.

"Seven months or so." Lu Ningjing hesitated.

Lu Xuming rubbed his forehead, "What happened when I came here last year?"

"Um……"

So, at that time, he was still thankful that they had only been together for two days, and he probably didn't have time to do that kind of thing. After all, he and Qiu Zixuan had been together for more than two years before going to bed for the first time, and the pregnancy rate of this kind of thing is not high, so I didn't take it to heart, who knows, who knows...

Lu Xuming hates that.

It's just that now that it's like this, abortion is impossible, he looked at Lu Ningjing: "This road is not easy, we can never be together openly, and we have to bear all kinds of public opinion, being looked down upon by others, and both sides Family pressure and no guarantee of marriage, Ning Jing, you have to think clearly."

Lu Ningjing lowered his eyes: "I think clearly."

"Oh..." Lu Xuming sighed for a long time, "Why do you like men? Didn't you have a good time with Lele?"

The year before last, he took Lele back. The happiest thing was Qiu Zixuan. Seeing that his son could find a girl he liked and form a happy family, he was satisfied. Who knew he would come to this point.

"Probably...the fate hasn't arrived yet." Lu Ningjing really didn't know how to answer his question.

"All right, all right," Lu Xuming waved his hands irritably, and then warned Zheng Heng, "If you dare to make Ning Jing suffer the slightest grievance, even if I risk my life, I won't let you go."

Both Zheng Heng and Lu Ningjing were overjoyed, did his uncle agree?

"Mr. Lu, please don't worry," Zheng Heng said while holding Lu Ningjing's hand, "Although I can't guarantee that Ning Jing will not suffer any harm, I will protect him from any harm to the greatest extent. As for the marriage protection you just mentioned, if Ning Jing agrees, and I will immediately take him abroad to register for marriage."

"Hmph, that's just a torn piece of paper, it doesn't have any legal effect, don't pretend I'm too old to know," his uncle said very shamelessly, "Don't say this too early, I have to see your people first. Pin, if it doesn't work, I won't agree with Ning Jing to be with you."

An old man with such an awkward personality is really...

Zheng Heng smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, it's useless for me to say anything now. Time will prove that both Ning Jing and I's choices are correct."

***

In the evening, when Zheng Heng went back, Lu Xuming lived with Lu Ningjing. Because his uncle agreed, Lu Ningjing was a little excited. Although he didn't like this uncle very much, it really became his biggest headache when he came. He had been thinking about how to deal with his uncle for a while, but now his uncle didn't object, and was suddenly so surprised by this surprise that he couldn't sleep.

After tossing and turning on the bed for a while, Lu Ningjing thought about it, got up and put on a thin coat and went out, and sure enough, he saw the small light in the living room was on, and his uncle was sitting on the sofa, but this time he was not smoking, probably because of his scruples His current body, once his uncle put the cigarette on the tea table tonight, did not touch it.

It's just that there is a smell of instant noodles in the living room...

"Don't move yet." Seeing him getting up, his uncle was afraid that he would bump into him in the dark, so he went to turn on the light in the living room, and asked, "Why haven't you slept so late? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No," Lu Ningjing walked to the sofa and sat down, "I just thought you didn't sleep, so I came out to chat with you."

"What's there to talk about?" His uncle drank the water from the glass on the table, "Don't you really dislike me?"

He really didn't like it, he was sullen and short-tempered, Lu Ningjing didn't answer his words, but saw the half-eaten instant noodles on the coffee table, "Uncle, you didn't have dinner?"

"It's too late." Lu Xuming, who was caught eating instant noodles, couldn't hold back his old face.

Lu Ningjing got up: "There are still ingredients in the refrigerator, let me cook you something to eat, you have been busy all day, it's not good to eat this."

"No need," his uncle hurriedly grabbed his hand, "this will do, don't bother."

Lu Ningjing smiled at his uncle, "I can cook every day now, so you don't have to worry about my body."

Under the light, Lu Ningjing, who smiled so brightly at Lu Xuming for the first time, made Lu Xuming shake his head. This smile was exactly the same as that person's back then.

And Lu Ningjing took advantage of the moment when he was in a daze, and had already entered the kitchen.

Cooking must be impossible. Lu Ningjing saw that there was pork liver bought for him in the refrigerator, so he made a bowl of pork liver noodles. Seeing that Lu Ningjing came out of the kitchen with a bowl of hot noodles on his stomach, Lu Xuming's eyes were a little wet, and he hurried over to take it.

After his uncle finished eating, Lu Ningjing asked the question that had puzzled him all this time, "How do you know that Zheng Heng and I got back together, and that I was pregnant?"

Lu Xuming didn't want him to know the past between him and Qiu Zixuan, so he made random excuses, "City A used to be my place, and you still want to hide this trivial matter from me?"

His uncle went to university at x university, and he still worked here for three years after graduation. This is the place where he dared to call him. Lu Ningjing was amused by his uncle's words, so he no longer cared about how he knew, but He said sincerely, "Uncle, thank you."

"Thank you for what I did?" His uncle said stiffly, "I don't object to the matter between you and that kid, I think the sky is brighter."

"..." Lu Ningjing didn't know how to answer, why did his uncle's words attract people's hatred so much.

"I know you don't have a good impression of me, and I'm also an unlikable person," his uncle continued, "It's just Ning Jing, I just want you to know one thing about you. No malice towards you."

Lu Ning nodded. Even if his uncle objected to the relationship between him and Zheng Heng last year, he didn't want to break them up maliciously. Except when he wanted to "kidnap" him for no reason when he was three years old, he was pretty good to him at other times. It's just that he didn't appreciate it. After all, that incident caused him a very bad phenomenon. It was the earliest thing he remembered, so that the impression he had of this uncle in the future was vicious.

"Uncle, I don't blame you." Lu Ningjing said.

His uncle nodded, sighed again, stretched out his hand unconsciously to the cigarette on the tea table, then pulled his hand back as if thinking of something, and clenched his fist with restraint, "Thank you."

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"When is the due date?" His uncle asked again.

"December 11."

"Decided to give birth?"

"Maybe I'll choose a caesarean section." Lu Ningjing actually has a bit of a shadow on the natural birth, the place is so small, every time Zheng Heng has sex with him, he has to do a lot of foreplay to get in, if the natural birth is... so he wants to have a caesarean section, But the doctor advised him to give birth naturally.

"Well," his uncle nodded, "it's getting late, go to bed, it's not good for children to go to bed late."
