The villa has a lounge specially set up for the servants, with flowing water, an elegant environment, and a buffet. There are more servants, and there is less work, so there is enough time for them to gossip.

Apparently, the two maids who were mopping the floor at the door had big mouths, so that "the news of the young master kneeling, the sparrow and the young mistress" let everyone in the villa know in less than a minute by relying on the sensitive network.

During the lunch break, the housekeeper was not there, and everyone in the lounge exploded.

"My God... Mr. Xia actually made the young master kneel down to the young mistress..."

"Is this... to give the young mistress a boost?"

The two maids seem to be whispering, but the loud voice can be heard in half of the lounge, but today's topic is obviously hot enough, everyone is very interested in this topic, and no one condemns the "small" voices of the two of them.

Someone suddenly sneered.

"What do you know?"

This voice is clear, with a bit of unscrupulous arrogance, abrupt and bright.

Everyone subconsciously looked over.

What is it.

She was wearing a retro dress and her movements were elegant.

He Ran is an old maid with bright and beautiful looks. I heard that she has some unclear relationship with Xia Shi behind her, so no one dares to offend her.

She was holding a cup of coffee, and the two-hour lunch break was enough for her to take off her maid outfit, put on a beautiful dress, and pretend to be the owner of this villa.

She was obviously enjoying the moment of everyone's attention, her eyebrows and eyes were a little mocking.

"Can't you see that?" She said proudly, "Mr. Xia is obviously very...very dislikes young mistress."

"what?"

Everyone was at a loss.

The two "whispering" maids were obviously dissatisfied, "What nonsense are you talking about, Mr. Xia made the young master kneel down to the young mistress! Isn't this Liwei?"

"Liwei?" He Ran laughed sarcastically, "Let the arrogant young master kneel down to the young mistress who has no backer, is this Liwei?"

He Ran put down his coffee.

"Using strength to fight, it's hard to say whether Xia always wants to use the young master's hand to get rid of the unsightly young mistress."

Everyone fell silent.

He Ran said: "I don't believe it... In just a day or two, Mr. Xia can be so deeply attached to this little sparrow that fell from the sky that the young master who has been doting on him for more than ten years will kneel down on the spot."

Seeing the different expressions of the people below, He Ran smiled coldly.

It is human nature to hold high and step down.

She is just jealous.

She didn't feel it when she saw a person who was already better than herself climb to the next level, but she saw Lu Hui, a sparrow who was not as good as herself, climbed to the clouds.

She doesn't care what Boss Xia thinks.

She just thought, ruthlessly, ruthlessly dragged him down, and trampled her back into the mud! !

==

Severance pay or something...

wrong!Xia Qiu said before that it doesn't matter, so it must not mean that?

Lu Hui asked blankly, "...so?"

Xia Qiu turned away from looking at her again, "It's nothing."

After a pause, "Don't call me Boss Xia."

Lu Gui suddenly blessed his soul!

Could it be... Is Boss Xia... explaining what Butler Lin said?

She opened her eyes wide and looked at Xia Qiu for a while, wanting to laugh.

In the end, he couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

Xia Qiu pursed her lips forcefully, just when Lu Hui was laughing at her.

She heard Lu Hui say: "But I don't call you Boss Xia, what should I call you? President Xia?"

Xia Qiu turned around, "Xia Qiu, that's fine."

Speaking of which, she still doesn't know the name of the person bearing the name of her own wife.

"Okay...Xia Qiu." Lu Hui called softly.

Her voice was very soft, as if she had her name on the tip of her tongue, and she licked it gently a few times, which made Xia Qiu feel like an electric shock for a moment.

The girl's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she blinked at her, "Xia Qiu, my name is Lu Hui."

She knew that Xia Qiu didn't care about anything.

Therefore, she did not expect Xia Qiu to know her name.

Regret.

regret.

Lu Hui seemed a little dazed when he saw Xia Qiu, and smiled again in his eyes, "All roads lead to Rome, regret without regret."

Xia Qiu looked at her, as if she didn't quite understand why a girl would use the word "regret".

"My grandma told me when I was a child." Lu Hui propped his chin, his eyes curved into a smile, "Life is full of forks, and if you take a wrong step, you may regret it for a long time."

"A lot of people forget to move forward in regret and just let that bad mood kill their time."

"Take regret into the name. If I accidentally go the wrong way, I just need to regret it in the name." Lu Hui said, "In this way, every step on the road, no matter whether I go wrong or right, I just need to go forward. , can go forward indomitably, without complaints or regrets."

Xia Qiu said, "This name is... interesting."

"Really." Lu Hui was a little complacent, and his dimples deepened.

"You should cherish it."

Xia Qiu thought, she doesn't have such an interesting name, and she doesn't have the courage to move forward without complaint or regret.

Lu Hui pursed his lips and smiled.

She said silently in her heart.

certainly not.

Xiaqiu is also very good.

"Then give you my name for once." Lu Hui knocked on his hand and said, "From now on, as long as Miss Xia Qiu calls my name, you can share the courage to go forward and the right to have no regrets !"

Be with someone who is full of sunshine.

It seems that the whole person will become a little sunny.

Xia Qiu's gloomy mood of wanting to hurt everything is much better.

Xia Qiu felt as if she had split into two, one hiding all the pain and sorrow in her heart, looking at the world numbly and indifferently, and the other with a smile on her face, dealing with this lovely Miss Lu Hui with ease and joy.

——No way, the unforgettable pain always needs to be borne by oneself.

She heard herself say with some relief, happily, "Okay, Miss Lu Hui."

"Very good." Lu Hui said, "Now that Miss Xia Qiu has obtained courage and power, let's let Miss Xia Qiu use it once."

Xia Qiu looked at her.

"First." Lu Hui said, "Miss Xia Qiu gained the courage to face the past."

"Then, the decision to dismiss all the workers does not need to be explained to Ms. Lu Hui."

Xia Qiu didn't understand Lu Hui's logic.

But she still looked at her quietly, waiting for her to continue.

Lu Hui didn't look at Xia Qiu's expression, but said, "Secondly, Miss Xia Qiu will explain to Miss Lu Hui, which means that Miss Xia Qiu thinks that Miss Lu Hui thinks that Miss Xia Qiu did something wrong."

"However, Ms. Lu Hui will not easily judge whether Ms. Xia Qiu's actions are right or wrong." Lu Hui blinked, "After all, you have traveled a long way before."

"Lu regrets that she doesn't know anything."

Xia Qiu's hand holding the cup tightened slightly.

At that moment, the split, numb soul seemed to raise its head slightly.

Gazing at a gleam of light shining through the darkness.

"Miss Lu Hui is a super fair person, so she will not easily judge right from wrong."

"So Miss Xia Qiu just needs to be honest and brave, and face what she has done."

——You will feel the need to explain, just because you are at a loss and you don't know how to do it yourself, right.

If you're wobbly.

Then she will help you face it.

Lu Hui finished speaking silently in his heart, then laughed again.

"But Miss Xia Qiu still explained a little bit, and let Miss Lu Hui listen."

"So Miss Lu Hui can make a judgment now - in Miss Xia Qiu's heart, she has already made this step." Lu Hui said, "There should be no complaints or regrets!"

"Then no matter right or wrong." Lu Hui said, "For Miss Xia Qiu, she should get rid of this burden and continue to move forward."

Lu Hui's voice lowered quietly.

"So, there's no need. Today, I regret not knowing how to explain because of this road. Tomorrow, I will explain for another person's frown."

The temperature of the hot water in the hand slowly spread from the palm to the heart.

From the heart, a faint desire rolled, along with the blood, roaring to the limbs.

Xia Qiu slightly lowered his eyes and said, "Some things are wrong."

Lu Hui: "Ah? What's wrong?"

——I will not explain half a sentence to other people who are redundant.

Xia Qiu looked at the cup in his hand, and a thin tea stem stood up.

"It's nothing." Xia Qiu heard herself say, "It's very interesting."

Xia Qiu has always liked to stay in the basement.

In the huge dark space, there was only a small light on. The warm gleam gave her a sense of security that she could sneak into the darkness at any time.

After finishing what she had to deal with, she put down the pen in her hand.

It's just that sometimes, she can't control herself and falls into some vague memories.

Some things that I want to forget but can't forget, even if I hide in the deepest darkness, I can't hide.

The woman's gentle and loving voice seemed to be right next to her ears, a little coaxing.

"Qiuqiu..."

In an instant, goosebumps crawled all over his body, with great irritability and fear that made people want to get angry.

She closed her eyes, and casually pulled out an auction plan that Xia Shi participated in from the document.

She turned her eyes slightly and saw a pink diamond necklace.

The exquisite pink diamonds are cut into perfect shapes, with a bit of girlish playfulness and tenderness.

Xia Qiu stared at that page for a long time.

She slowly reached out and touched her face, the band-aid was still on her cheek.

Like a child who got a toy suddenly, she rubbed it, put down her hand, stared blankly for a while, raised her hand as if inadvertently, and "accidentally" rubbed it again.

==

"Well, ma'am, don't go to that room."

"Ah... oh." Lu Hui scratched his head and put down the mop in his hand, "Then I won't go."

It was the housekeeper Lin who called her to stop before who said this.

Lu Hui didn't even know that she was a housekeeper.

"Ma'am, you can just go and look at the flowers and grass, and I will do the rough work." Lin Butler said.

The mop in her hand was taken away, but Lu Hui didn't force it, she asked curiously: "Whose room is that, why can't you go in?"

This villa is surrounded by mountains and the sea, and has a lot of space. Lu Hui walked for a long time without finishing it. She once ran to the highest place of the villa to see the blue sea and sky in the distance, and also ran to the darkness of the hollowed out mountain. Watching movies in the room is fun at first, but then it starts to get boring.

Everyone in the villa seems to have their own things to do, and Xia Qiu seems to be very busy, and she doesn't come out once she enters the basement. When asked, she is said to be working, so she should not disturb her.

It was only then that Lu Hui felt that it seemed a bit out of place to wander around alone, so he used the excuse of cleaning to run around with a mop in his arms.

Kitchen, garden, study, hall, all kinds of beautifully decorated empty rooms...

The domestic servants would nod to her before, but now, they don't know what happened, they don't say hello, they don't say hello, they just pretend they can't see her.

Lu Hui didn't care about their attitude towards her, they didn't greet her, and she didn't have to return the greeting one by one, so she was happy and relaxed.

Only when she walked to the door of this house, she was stopped.

"Don't ask any more questions." Lin Butler sighed softly, "Madam, let's go play in the garden."

"Well……"

Lu Hui rolled his eyes, "Okay."

Then he laughed again, "Mother Lin, looking at flowers alone is boring, can you go with me?"

Lu Hui looks small, and when she smiles, there is a small dimple on her cheek, which is as sweet as a little sun, making it difficult to refuse any request from her.

Butler Lin hesitated for a moment, put down the mop in his hand, "OK."

"Mother Lin is so kind." Lu Hui took out two pieces of toffee from his pocket and put them in Mama Lin's hands, "This candy is super sweet."

Mama Lin answered subconsciously, and then she couldn't laugh or cry, "I don't eat candy..."

"Yeah." Lu Hui said with a smile, "Can you give it to a child, does Mama Lin have any children?"

Thinking of her own child, Mama Lin's expression suddenly softened, "I have a little granddaughter."

"Ah, they are all granddaughters. How old are you? She must be super cute..."

The two chatted about the daily life while walking.

Lu Hui followed his grandparents since he was a child, so he naturally knew how to please the elderly and their parents, so he made Butler Lin very happy with just a few words.

Seeing that the timing was almost up, Lu Hui asked, seemingly unintentionally, "Hey, Ms. Lin, what was that room used to do? If no one is allowed in, it will be inconvenient to clean after a long time."

Lin Butler heard the words, glanced at Lu Hui, and sighed, "You little girl, coax me for a long time..."

Lu Hui acted like a baby: "Oh, just tell me, I'm married into the Xia family, and I won't tell outsiders."

Lin Butler smiled wryly, "Actually, it's nothing to tell outsiders, and it's not a secret... That room belongs to the young master's mother."

The young master's... mother?

Xia Shi's mother?

Lu Hui was taken aback.

Lu Hui also knew some rumors about the relatives of the Xia family.

Xia Qiu's mother committed suicide because of depression when Xia Qiu was four or five years old.

Soon after, his father married another daughter named Lu Huan, and gave birth to a younger brother for Xia Qiu, named Xia Shi.

When Xia Shi was born, Xia Qiu was only seven or eight years old, and then there were rumors that Lu Huan and Xia Qiu had a car accident together.

The car accident was extremely tragic, and Lu Huan died on the spot. Although Xia Qiu survived, she lost feeling in her legs.

Her mother committed suicide due to depression, and her stepmother died in a car accident with her.

Since then, Xia Qiu has had a reputation of being tough and restraining her relatives.

Lu Hui is not too clear about the others.

"That's right, it's the young master's mother." Butler Lin lowered his voice a little, "Actually, I haven't been here for long, but I heard that when Miss Xia was born, a fortune teller told the master that Miss Xia was a stern woman." , Master didn't believe it at first, but later... Well, after Miss Xia's mother passed away, Miss Xia was thrown directly into the villa by the master and taken care of by the servants."

Subconsciously, Lu Hui remembered Xia Qiu from yesterday.

The woman sat quietly on the bed, holding a cup of hot West Lake Longjing, looking out of the window with silent eyes, not worried about her own pain and the doctor's helplessness.

In the depths of his eyes, there was indifference.

The mother died young, and the father thought she was killing the mother, so he continued to continue.

For a while, an indescribable distress appeared slowly, like a needle prick, again and again.

Lu Hui touched the ring. The cold ring couldn't bring her any peace of mind. She became anxious for a while, and rubbed her thumb against the bite mark on her index finger habitually. It gave her a little sense of security.

"Did Xia Shi's mother come here often during her lifetime?" Lu Hui asked.

There are even rooms.

"Sigh." Lin Butler sighed, "At that time, Mrs. Lu liked Xia Qiu very much, and often came here to see her, and then she simply packed up a room for her."

"Then there was the car accident... Mrs. Lu died, and Miss Xia couldn't move her legs anymore."

"No one knows why such a thing happened." Lin Butler couldn't help but say more, "But after that, Miss Xia didn't believe that her leg was broken. Every day, even if she was crawling, she still wanted to stand up."

"Actually...it's not impossible to rebuild, but for some reason, she gave up..." Lin Butler said, "She began to hate people approaching her, touching her, and would lose her temper if anyone approached her, and especially I like to stay alone in the basement. No one knows why." Lin Butler said, "I also heard from those who used to clean up the villa...Although Miss Xia couldn't stand up, she gave up her rehabilitation. Use a wheelchair, and refuse to use a wheelchair."

"Lying on the hospital bed every day, I was angry and went crazy. In the middle of the night, when no one was paying attention, I crawled into the underground warehouse, was carried away, and crawled over the next night... At that time, it was not the current basement, but an underground warehouse. The warehouse was cold and wet, and it was not good for her legs at all... Then the master came and changed the underground warehouse where things were stored into a basement where people can live..."
