Chapter 122
"No, 200,000 a month." It's not enough, you can use the joint account casually without reporting it, Lu Xiao added, seeing the general of the Fourth Army's complexion, he swallowed the second half of the sentence wittily.
The boss sat on the office chair, trying his best to control himself not to slide down and slumped on the chair... A mouthful of old blood almost spewed out.
Why? Why is the gap between Omega so big...
"Did you give him voodoo?" The boss held back for a long while but still couldn't hold back, and said aggrievedly.
"No." Lu Xiao shrugged easily, but he wasn't angry at all. This uncle was really kind to him when he was young... He even took him to drive a mecha. He also sympathized with him being beaten all the time, but after so many years of marriage, he still doesn't understand the psychology of his own Omega. Activities... too careless.
Like him, he knows Ling Cen very well, and Lu Xiao is very proud.
"Ling Cen now runs a small studio by himself, and the income is very good."
"How do you know?" He stared at his Omega income, why didn't he get beaten? This is what the general lingered in his heart. When his partner was working on a large-scale project, he was curious about the incoming information, read it, and then...
Looking back on the past, his partner told himself with practical actions that Omega's money is his own, and his Alpha's salary is also his...
"Sometimes he asks me to help him read the accounts of the studio." Lu Xiao was at a loss: "Ling Cen said that he doesn't understand these things, and he is indeed not very sensitive to forms."
"In the past, I was in charge of both of our small accounts. He directly remitted his own money to my account... and also let his advertising and endorsement funds be directly transferred to my account, saving transfer fees. Later, he learned how to manage money. I'll leave it to him." Although since Ling Cen took over, their annual value-added portion has been reduced by 20%...
It's really like what Ling Cen said, he doesn't have the slightest talent for financial management.
However, he is already content. Ling Cen was unwilling to take care of it before, and he should leave this kind of matter to his own Omega, so that he can feel at ease...
"...This is two hundred thousand." The boss muttered to himself.
There was a question mark on Lu Xiao's head, the boss just pretended he didn't see it, and was immersed in his own thoughts...Ling Cen's own income is not bad, and he is willing to give it to his husband... Lu Xiao didn't understand what he meant, so he handed the money back to him , he gave Lu Xiao a large amount of "pocket money" to supplement his daily life.
Hehe, why didn't I catch up with such a good thing? The boss was full of grief and indignation.
"What about the rest, how do you usually get along?" The boss was itchy and anxious to know the secret of Lu Xiao's success. When asked, Lu Xiao gave fragmented answers, which were not what he wanted at all, so he had no choice but to take the risk and ask private questions, preparing to go back and summarize by himself. …
"Others?" Lu Xiao was lost in memory, with a gentle smile on his face, and said slowly: "When I used to work in Ruisi...he would come to listen to my lectures and praise me for my good lectures." Although he didn't understand anything, He also passed notes to his students...
"The clothes I go out every day are prepared by him and put in the bedroom."
"When I was at home, if I was sorting out materials in the study, he would give me cut fruits." Lu Xiao tried hard to recall: "Oh, he can also cook, and sometimes he will cook Chinese food for me."
"He still cooks Chinese food for you?" The boss couldn't help interjecting. He's been married for many years, and he's not a robot cooking...or let a servant do it.
"Well..." Lu Xiao was puzzled and said blankly: "He doesn't know how to cook English food, he said that if I want to eat English food, he will learn it... But I don't think it's necessary, so I didn't let him learn it .”
Chinese food is delicious. As for traditional British food...he can't accept it. Of course he can eat it when he has no choice, but compared with Ling Cen's good Chinese food, he is willing to eat Chinese food with him.
Lu Xiao gestured to indicate that he didn't like British food very much.
"..." Is this not the point at all? You Omega is willing to cook, and you still look picky...and you are "tolerant" and express that you don't mind the lack of English food...
If Ling Cen had exchanged souls with his Omega, Lu Xiao would have been beaten to death 10,000 times.
The boss forced a smile, took a deep breath and told himself that this is a kid from the Lu family, so he can't beat him... Otherwise, I will definitely beat him...
"But he's pregnant now, so he hasn't cooked for a long time. He just prepared some fruits for me." Lu Xiao couldn't help showing off Ling Cen's pregnancy in a low-key manner...
"...Congratulations, congratulations." The boss was heartbroken. He had already heard about it when he was in the military yesterday... That movie about Ling Cen was a big hit... He didn't even go out and has been recuperating at home.
He listened for a long time, but Lu Xiao still detailed how Ling Cen treated him. He didn't hear the true meaning of Lu Xiao's success at all, so he had no choice but to directly ask, "What about you? What did you do?"
Ling Cen's gentleness couldn't be for no reason. Huo Lan from Elman's family sent him back, and he didn't see Ling Cen talking softly to Huo Lan, just a normal tone.
It can be seen that Ling Cen's character is not the kind that is weak and eager to face every Alpha.
Lu Xiao must have something unique in order to make Ling Cen obey.
Lu Xiao was silent for a while, then said blankly, "Why don't you buy a cup of milk tea and take it home for a try?"
Ling Cen is ready for this. As long as you bring him a cup of milk tea, Ling Cen will immediately boast that he is the best Alpha husband in the Federation.
After nightfall, he will reward him more tenderly than usual.
"...I'll try." The boss also replied blankly. He usually has normal intelligence, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take the position of general of the Fourth Army and sit on an equal footing with Lu Xiao's father.
But he has been described by Lu Xiao as a lover who is gentle, affectionate, and tolerant. Moreover, he never hits people and draws the key points. This great advantage is carried away by his head and he has lost his mind.
Losing is just a matter of a cup of milk tea. After winning, he won't have to be beaten again.
The boss stood up unsteadily, holding the tip of his purple nose: "I'll go first, you go to work." He had to search for milk tea shops near the military headquarters in a while.
"General, go slowly." It was inconvenient for Lu Xiao to stand up and see him off, so he nodded slightly and watched the other party leave.
Talked to him for a long time, but nothing was done... Lu Xiao started Yugong Yishan with a big head, and when the sun moved to the green plants in the afternoon, Lu Xiao counted the number of unfinished documents, and silently sent a message to Ling Cen , expressing that he has to work overtime today, let him go to bed first without waiting for him.
Ling Cen's message was sent back quickly, and Lu Xiao turned on the holographic screen with one hand.
[Can it be done tomorrow? you will be tired. ]
Lu Xiao's heart warmed. Having an Omega like Ling Cen as his partner helped him take care of the back-up affairs at home. He didn't have to waste his mind at home, and he could focus on work. No matter how tedious the work was, he could still handle it. .
[Maybe not, there is a deadline for these batches, you have dinner with Mom and the others and then rest first. ]
Ling Cen's body was getting heavier and heavier, and his lethargy became more and more serious. It's better not to let him wait for him to go home.
Lu Xiao looked at the time limit on the edge of the file. The editor was confident. After thinking about it, he added an emoji at the end, which made the tone appear gentle. Lu Xiao nodded in satisfaction and sent it to Ling Cen.
Looking at the smiling face, Ling Cen couldn't help but smile, and stretched out his index finger to draw this expression slightly on the terminal. He could imagine Lu Xiao giving him a cute expression with a straight face.
Lu Xiao was so seductive, Ling Cen lazily rolled over on the bed. But thinking of him having to work overtime, he frowned dissatisfied...Lu Xiao didn't talk about working overtime when he was in Ruisi, and he was not only tired after returning to the military headquarters...now he even has to work overtime.
New news reminder.
Ling Cen opened the dormant terminal because he received a special attention account and a message from Lu Xiao. After reading Lu Xiao's short message, Hai Li's information popped in.
Looking at the long list, Ling Cen was speechless, and sent a video request to Haili.
When Hai Li picked it up, there was a burst of noise.
"Sorry." Haili hurriedly apologized and ran to a quieter place.
"What are you doing?" Ling Cen asked curiously.
"Filming with Corleone. Ever since "Thousand Miles" became popular, our film appointments are almost overwhelmed." Haili said proudly.
Speaking of this, Ling Cen remembered the message she sent to herself: "Hailey, what's the matter with the message you sent me? I'm at home, and I have to rest for at least half a year." Haili should have turned down these invitations for him.
"I know." Speaking of this, Haili couldn't hide the pride on her face, and said excitedly, "I'm willing to wait for these, and the start-up time is half a year later."
"...What about the advertising endorsement?" Don't tell me that you can wait... Ling Cen is speechless, the advertising endorsement of the brand is at least half a month before the release, and the product of the new season will be launched, and it will be launched together Refined endorsement big picture.
"Oh, I also told them that they are willing to keep you as the spokesperson of the year for next year..."
"..." Ling Cen was speechless. This world is too illusory. No one in the top tier has this kind of treatment. Even if he started the entertainment industry, he can't do it like this.
"What happened to them?" Ling Cen couldn't help complaining.
"Oh, Brother Ling, haven't you read it yet?" Hai Li asked him to pull down the list she sent to him to the bottom.
"... How is it possible?" "Thousand Miles" has swept the nominations for several authoritative awards this year... "Thousand Miles" in the previous life was not so eye-catching.
"Yes." Hai Li said excitedly: "Brother Ling, you are really amazing. When we were on the set, I told you that we would quit and change to another movie. I am such a fool..." There will never be "" This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"The director also said to contact you personally. He said that he would wait for a few film festivals at Ike Federation to start. There may be nominations. I don't know how many awards we can win this time..." Hai Li smiled and rolled her eyes. Kailanbu stopped and said she had conveyed it.
Otherwise, Kailanbu will give it a try. It feels like Ling Cen will never get through the terminal line...
Ling Cen shook his head silently. To him, this surprise was too big. He was suddenly promoted to the position of god by virtue of "A Thousand Miles", but there are still fewer works, and his godhood is easy to be unstable.
"Pailipek sent an application for contract renewal for the coming year..." Haili lowered her voice. At that time, Pailipek's scandal said that Ling Cen got an endorsement by "sleeping" to curry favor with the sponsor. .
She was a little conflicted. On the one hand, she was reluctant to part with Pailipek's huge advertising volume and market share. On the other hand...she was also a little worried about such news. But they can't give up eating because of choking, Hai Li cheered herself up.
"Push it, I won't renew the contract with them." Ling Cen said without hesitation. He didn't cross the river and demolish the bridge. He used Pailipek to successfully raise an advertising level, and then abandoned the other party. However, Chris's ambiguous attitude still has his previous Actively "wooing" made him have to be more careful and avoid it.
Lu Xiao trusts him, and he doesn't want to squander this trust.
Haili hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether she should persuade her, but finally she silently nodded and agreed.
Ling Cen's body was already getting heavier, and after chatting with Hai Li for a few more words, he ended the terminal video, snorted and slid down on the bed tiredly, lying on his left side to rest.
Only he and Mrs. Lu had dinner. Lu Xiao had reported it to him. As for General Lu, Mrs. Lu also explained that he had gone to the nearby guard star to inspect.
"He has to live outside today. Let's eat without waiting for them." Mrs. Lu said with a relaxed expression, she signaled the servants to serve dinner, and she herself started eating at the main table.
"Mom, leave a copy for Lu Xiao." Ling Cen whispered while holding the tableware.
"Oh, don't worry about him, the kitchen will keep it for him." Mrs. Lu smiled sincerely, and told Ling Cen to start eating.
The two of them ate pretty well. Ling Cen has been controlling his sugar intake recently. After the meal, there are more fruit sessions. Mrs. Lu cared for him, smiled and watched him finish eating the fruit and drove him up the stairs: "Go Rest, don't wait for Lu Xiao."
When chatting with her, she would inadvertently turn her head to look at the porch corridor outside the living room, thinking only of her son... Mrs. Lu secretly complained, why, working overtime is so great?
Chapter 123
The night is like a gloomy deep pool, the ink is slightly viscous and slowly flowing, and the bright moon is like frost. A mist has already settled in the air, exuding a refreshing breath.
Lu Xiao came back with such cool moisture in his body. There were only two servants on guard at home to help him open the door.
"Where's Madam?" Lu Xiao asked in a low voice, shaking the small crystal-like drops of water stuck to his clothes.
"It's already rested. Madam told us to leave a supper for you. Do you want to use it now?" The servant bowed and responded.
"No need, go and rest." He had already eaten at the military headquarters, Lu Xiao raised his wrist and glanced at the time, it was past midnight...
At this time, everyone had already rested. Ling Cen was already sleepy, so it was impossible to wait for him to come back.
Lu Xiao refused the servant's help, turned on the silent noise reduction mode, and slowly pushed open the door of their room while driving the wheelchair.
He didn't need to turn on the lighting, he could see clearly, and his eyes turned slightly in the complete darkness, revealing a faint brilliance like shining gold.
Lu Xiao shook his neck to relieve fatigue, disengaged the automatic driving, and was about to push the wheelchair into the bedroom to rest with Ling Cen, but when he passed by the living room, he caught a glimpse of Ling Cen from the corner of his eye...
Lu Xiao turned his head and saw that Ling Cen was curled up on a double sofa, leaning against the back of the sofa, his straight and slender legs were slightly bent, and he was holding his calf with one hand. guard in it.
Curly and slender eyelashes are like two crow-feather fans quietly covering the eyes, and the beautiful sleeping face is peaceful and peaceful, sinking into a sweet dreamland.
Lu Xiao walked over quietly, and the wheelchair moved forward, making a slight noise, which woke up Ling Cen, who was already sleeping heavily.
"You're back." Ling Cen opened his eyes, looked back sleepily at the short, sitting black figure in front of him, and knew that it was Lu Xiao sitting in a wheelchair. There was a hint of nasal hoarseness in his voice, which sounded a bit cute.
"You're back, why don't you go to the bedroom to rest?" Lu Xiao asked distressedly. While talking, he hurriedly took off his jacket that was covered in cold mist and threw it aside, fearing that Ling Cen would be frozen.
This sofa is too small, Ling Cen can't even stretch his legs.
"I thought you'd be back soon." Ling Cen muttered, looking at Lu Xiao's eyes that were a little creepy in the dark night and complained.
His thoughts digressed again: "Your eyes are so beautiful." Ling Cen sighed.
"...Well." Lu Xiao couldn't help laughing, it's just the eyes of a predatory mammal. There are many Alphas, but Ling Cen only praises his good looks. There is nothing wrong with him here, no matter how ordinary things are, they can boast flowers.
Ling Cen himself looked at the terminal time and frowned and asked, "Why did you come back so late? Have you eaten yet?"
"I've eaten." Lu Xiao responded in a low voice, and turned on the lighting on the terminal.
When the light came on, Ling Cen's clean and delicate skin was glowing firm and porcelain white under the warm light... The weather had already warmed up, and Ling Cen had already changed from thick pajamas to a light nightgown. On the sofa, a pair of slender thighs are beautifully exposed, sexy and alluring.
Lu Xiao couldn't help but feel a little short of breath. Omega would be tortured by physiological reactions during pregnancy, so he was already prepared to take care of his partner at this time.
Ling Cen was an exception. He only complained to him a few times that the hard-tip toothbrush cut his gums. Other than that, he never saw any discomfort from him. His complexion was rosy and his complexion was very good.
Even the pregnancy can make him respond. Ling Cen bowed slightly towards the inside of the sofa. Lu Xiao's fingertips gently touched Ling Cen's left leg on the outer side, and his fingertips slid down the face bone from the calf.
With the index finger and middle finger together, the two fingers slid all the way along Ling Cen's delicate skin, and I felt that the fingertips seemed to be sliding through the smooth and fine silk brocade...
Ling Cen lowered his eyelashes slightly, and felt that Lu Xiao's fingertips had nimbly slid down to his ankles.
Lu Xiao put his fingertips on the inner malleolus of Ling Cen's left leg and exerted a little force. Ling Cen followed his movements meekly and separated his slender and fair legs.
Lu Xiao choked for breath... At this time, Ling Cen was so obedient that he couldn't describe it. Even if his actions were slightly erotic, Ling Cen was willing to obey...
Lu Xiao took off his mask, pushed the wheelchair over, stopped in front of Ling Cen, leaned over and kissed Ling Cen, Ling Cen gently raised his chin, raised his head to accept it intimately, his arms were wrapped around Lu Xiao's neck before he knew it Be intimate with him.
"Go to bed?" The two separated, Ling Cen asked in a low voice, panting slightly.
Lu Xiao understood what he meant, hesitated for a moment, but shook his head and refused: "No need... you go and rest." Ling Cen and him really don't have many choices... Ling Cen has to contribute, and he is not willing. So Ling Cen has been pregnant till now...the number of times they have been intimate can only be counted on the fingers of the fingers.
It's okay, I can bear it, Lu Xiao calmed down and thought calmly.
"Yeah." Ling Cen laughed at his reaction, responded with a low nasal voice, kissed Lu Xiao intimately on the face, then got up and pushed Lu Xiao's wheelchair to the bedroom.
"Don't work so late in the future." As for his poor health, Ling Cen deeply felt that Lu Xiao should find out his position. Although Lu Xiao was young, he had already dedicated everything to the Federation.
The current civilian position is equivalent to the semi-retirement life given to them by the military... This is what Lu Xiao deserves. There is no need for Lu Xiao to work too hard, but he can't say this to Lu Xiao, who has always been rigorous, and can only hint at him in a roundabout way.
Lu Xiao understands, he and Ling Cen have some differences on this matter, but often he insists, Ling Cen is willing to take a step back and forgive... without saying anything, he changed the subject with a smile: "I thought your legs would be swollen. .” He had already studied how to massage, but Ling Cen did not expect to maintain it very well.
Ling Cen said with a slight smile, "Not now, maybe it will be a few months." He was actually a little afraid of edema... It sounded very uncomfortable, but Lu Xiao was by his side, and he had nothing to fear, saying He pushed the wheelchair to the bedside in their bedroom, and went to the closet to find pajamas for Lu Xiao.
"I won't take a shower today, let's rest now. I'm still going to work tomorrow." Ling Cen discussed with Lu Xiao distressedly. Lu Xiao only had weekends off and worked at the military headquarters for the rest of the time. rest for a while...
Lu Xiao nodded in agreement, temporarily abandoned his obsession with cleanliness, changed into pajamas and went to bed with his lover in his arms, feeling satisfied from the bottom of his heart.
Ling Cen has been asleep for several hours, and he can't fall back asleep for the time being... As for Lu Xiao, Ling Cen's sweet pheromone breath lingers on the tip of his nose, tickling and teasing his heart like a feather.
"Today, an elder of mine came to the office to look for me." Lu Xiao tried his best to turn his thoughts away from Ling Cen and continued: "This matter has something to do with you."
"Is it related to me?" Ling Cen was still closing his eyes for a rest, but he opened his eyes curiously and asked.
"Yes." Lu Xiao put one arm around Ling Cen's waist and said in a low voice, "It's the general of the Fourth Army. I told you about him."
Ling Cen nodded. Lu Xiao said that this is an elder who has supported and helped him a lot. Mrs. Lu also said that the two families have a close relationship...
Speaking of which, he had already told Mrs. Lu that he had sorted out all the relationship notes he had sorted out when he came back, and he had memorized some of them.
"He came to ask me for advice on how to "train" his own Omega, and wanted to know how I made you so obedient." Lu Xiao still couldn't stop laughing when he thought about it.
"...Just because I went to see you?" Ling Cen said helplessly, seeing Lu Xiao nodding his head, he asked even more speechlessly: "Then what did you say?"
Lu Xiao went on to tell the boss what he usually does when he goes home.
Ling Cen just listened with a smile on the sidelines. In fact, what Lu Xiao usually does is not only what he mentioned, but what he said only accounts for 10% of his actions... What kind of "experience imparting" is this? Can this also be summed up? Besides, he loves Lu Xiao not only because of these.
Hearing Lu Xiao suggest that the other party bring a cup of milk tea to please the other party when they go home... the smile gradually disappeared...
"How much candy did you ask him to bring? I didn't hear clearly." Ling Cen asked nervously.
"Double sugar, that's what you wanted to drink before." Lu Xiao's palm slowly slid up and down on Ling Cen's back and waist... enjoying the intimacy of his partner.
"...Can you take a vacation tomorrow?" Ling Cen was confused.
This is too bad, which Omega would like to drink a big cup of milk tea with double sugar at night? Even if he is unwilling to refuse the good intention to take it over, what if Lu Xiao's elders go along with the flow and make some other requests...
Tomorrow will be a day of celebration...
Ling Cen secretly had a headache. What idea did Lu Xiao give his uncle? Milk tea is not the point at all...
"What's wrong? There may be a batch of documents that need to be approved tomorrow, and I may not be able to ask for leave at this time..." Lu Xiao was puzzled.
Ling Cen shook his head, hoping he guessed wrong...
Lu Xiao took Ling Cen into his arms in a daze and went to rest. After a good night's dream, he woke up refreshed in the morning to wash up and get ready to go to work. Ling Cen had also woken up, got out of bed, brushed on his slippers and worriedly adjusted his clothes and said in a low voice: "You go home early from get off work today." Don't be stopped by his elders.
Lu Xiao didn't know why, so he nodded honestly.
But he soon understood Ling Cen's hidden meaning... The elder uncle who had a red and swollen nose yesterday entered his office with a gloomy expression.
"Will it work?" Lu Xiao tentatively asked.
The boss broke down in an instant, and his emotions broke the embankment: "You lied to me! That's not useless at all." If he didn't have the same agility, how could he get out?
Everything was fine at first, and his wife was quite happy to see the milk tea. Seeing that the situation was favorable to him, he couldn't help mentioning his new year's money that hadn't been raised for two years.
In the end, his lover smiled, and he was a little out of his mind... He accidentally vomited out the matter of his newly saved 50,000 small coffers.
The color is so dizzy...Let's put it this way, fortunately he went to deal with other things after get off work yesterday, and the milk tea was already cold when he got home...
Otherwise, I'm afraid he won't be able to come to work today... He should be treated for burns in the hospital.
Lu Xiao said frankly without words: "Uncle, I really have no other way."
The boss got up and said depressedly: "I know, I just came to tell you about the situation..." Of course, he could see that Lu Xiao was not an expert, but they were temporary comrades in arms, so they should report the progress.
"General." Lu Xiao saw that the opponent's hand was already on the doorknob, and suddenly opened his mouth. The general stopped and listened subconsciously.
"I think this kind of thing should be compared with your heart. As long as you treat him well, he will know..." It's just that the expression is different.
Although his uncle's Omega personality is a bit irritable and not good at expressing, but last time when he came back from an injury, because of his poor health, he would always fall into sleep and rest...
When he was in the hospital, he went to condolences on behalf of the Third Army Corps... just happened to bump into him and fell asleep. He saw his partner's partner by his bedside, and when he faced his sleeping lover, there was tenderness in his eyes, just like his Ling Cen.
His wife has also learned well... He chooses places with strong pain and easy injury, and will not cause damage.
Lu Xiao was a little resentful, like Ling Cen, he couldn't beat him so hard, but Ling Cen was not willing, Lu Xiao felt a little proud thinking of this.
The boss looked back at Lu Xiao's faintly proud look, and was suddenly touched in his heart. He nodded at Lu Xiao thoughtfully, opened the door and left with the guard at the door.
Lu Xiao sighed with emotion, pulled through the pile of high-level documents, and began to review. He doesn't want to work overtime today, he just wants to go back to accompany Ling Cen on time, otherwise his partner will always be nestled on the sofa in their room, dozing off and waiting for him...he is not willing.
Chapter 124
Ling Cen sent Lu Xiao to the hover car parked in the yard of his house in the morning, watched him get into the car, and the hover car drove out of the Lu residence to the military headquarters.
Ling Cen yawned sleepily again before holding his stomach and preparing to go upstairs to catch up on sleep.
"Ling Cen." Mrs. Lu was about to go out to meet her friends and met him in the living room, stopped and smiled.
"Mom, what's the matter?" Ling Cen stopped and asked politely.
"We're going to have an inspection next week, don't forget this time." Mrs. Lu joked.
Ling Cen was a little excited but a little embarrassed and said, "I see, Mom, you had a good time today."
He should be able to tell that he is a boy or a girl after this examination, and the ABO differentiation has already progressed to the middle stage, so he can do a little examination, but this test can only be completely accurate after the child is born.
Mrs. Lu nodded with a smile, and went out for shopping. Although the new models selected by the brand merchants are delivered directly to their homes every season, the fun of shopping... "shopping" is also a big part of it.
Besides, she hasn't seen Anna for a long time. Anna said that she has been fighting wits with her daughter-in-law recently, and she is exhausted. She still wants to comfort her best friend.
Everything is going well with her, Ling Cen's pregnancy is also very safe, she can finally devote her energy to a part of her social circle.
Mrs. Lu was as happy as a bird out of the cage, and left the Lu residence on the suspension car.
What day is today? Ling Cen thought speechlessly, okay, then I'll go back and sleep again. His eyelashes drooped slightly unconsciously, he was the only one left in Nuo Da's mansion, and he felt drowsy constantly in the quiet.
"I'm going to sleep. Don't call me unless Lu Xiao comes back." Ling Cen instructed carefully. The last time Lu Xiao came back drunk, the servant's knock on the door made him palpitate. for a long time…
Lu Xiao's affairs are worth disturbing his sleep, but other matters should not bother him.
The servant replied in a low voice: "Yes."
Satisfied, Ling Cen went upstairs to catch up on sleep. He stayed there until past ten o'clock last night, and fell asleep in a daze. He was awakened by the sound of Xiao coming back.
The two of them had endless conversations as husband and wife, and he felt that after a few words, it would be almost two o'clock... Lu Xiao recovered well, and went to work energetically, but he couldn't hold on anymore.
Ling Cen shook his head and threw himself on the bed... Started to catch up on sleep, just dreamed that he and Lu Xiao were taking their children for an outing by the lake, the corners of his mouth showed a faint smile, which was interrupted by a knock on the door...
"Ah! Who is it!" Ling Cen couldn't help but said irritablely, while enduring the slight pain of violent heartbeat, he went down to open the door in dissatisfaction.
"Madam." The other party said respectfully.
"What's the matter?" Ling Cen seemed to be the housekeeper of the family. He knew that the other party would not disturb him if he had nothing to do. It must be something important, so he asked softly.
The old housekeeper rarely struggled and said: "Madam, they told me that you are resting... But this matter may not wait."
The old lady was shopping, and he had already notified her, but the old lady told him to come and tell the lady that she would be home in an hour.
"What happened to Lu Xiao?" Ling Cen asked anxiously, the only thing he cares about! Lu Xiao works in the military headquarters building, who would dare to attack there? If the building is attacked, the sirens would have sounded by now.
Ling Cen's thoughts turned quickly, and the sluggish reaction during this period of time was instantly broken. Seeing that the old housekeeper was stunned for a moment and did not answer, he kept asking nervously.
"No, no." The old butler finally recovered his voice.
Ling Cen breathed a sigh of relief, and unconsciously leaned on a small cabinet at their door, he was a little unsteady.
"What's the matter?" Ling Cen regained his composure and asked casually.
The old housekeeper scratched his head, hesitantly said: "It's your family who came..."
"Ling Ping is here again?" Ling Cen felt disgusted, and said in a low voice, "Just drive him away, don't tell me this kind of thing again." He never wanted to see Ling Ping again, only one of him had passed away Mother, without father, long gone...
"No." The old housekeeper said bluntly: "It's the Bai family from the Ike Federation who came, and the one who came was Alpha. She said that she is your mother's sister."
Ike Federation? Bai family? Ling Cen was at a loss, but involuntarily raised a look of anticipation in his heart, did his mother's family finally find him? Not sure how they recognized themselves...
Mother's sister, isn't that his aunt? Why don't you just say aunt?
"Wait a minute, I'll change clothes and I'll be down right away." Ling Cen pressed the clothes he had put on indiscriminately when he got up and opened the door with one hand.
When he saw his relatives, of course he had to change into neater and more formal clothes. This was his family. Ling Cen closed the door happily, and found out the loose pregnancy clothes Mrs. Lu had prepared for him.
Changing clothes, Ling Cen's hand movements became slower and slower... He is a star, and it is undeniable that part of the reason why he chose this profession was that he hoped that his mother's family would find him, and that he would have another family member.
But he has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and he has acted in a lot of bad movies and popular movies and TV series... Ike Federation should also have spread, did you really find him now?
Ling Cen's thoughts drifted far away unconsciously, and there was a hidden worry in his heart, but the eagerness of belonging to his relatives urged him to open the door.
"Let's go, how many people are here?" Ling Cen asked the housekeeper in a low voice.
"Only the lady mentioned just now." The butler replied.
"Oh." Maybe his mother's house is not in good condition, only his aunt came here...
Ling Cen speculated wildly, and under the guidance of the housekeeper, he went downstairs to the living room.
Alpha in the hall heard the movement, put down the teacup and looked back to the door indifferently.
The two looked at each other unpreparedly. Ling Cen saw the face of his wife sitting on the sofa clearly, and instantly opened his jaw unconsciously. He couldn't even breathe, and there was a dull pain in the bottom of his throat as the breathing stopped. .
"Ma'am!" The housekeeper and the servants in the living room strode forward to support Ling Cen who was on the verge of falling. Only then did Ling Cen realize that he almost fell to the ground the last second.
It's so similar... It's at least 70% similar to the mother in his memory, and his doubts about the other party's identity fade away in an instant. However, because this lady is an Alpha, the line of the jawbone is a little stiff, giving her a bit more rigidity and seriousness, not as soft and beautiful as his mother's.
But his mother's last days were lingering on the sick bed, and no matter how good her appearance was, she was wiped out and turned into a pile of loess.
. The two people who used to be similar in appearance are already very different. A man who exhausted himself on a remote Suyue star...
The other has an extraordinary bearing, and he is not timid even sitting in the beautifully decorated Lu's house. Ling Cen has already made a rough judgment, and his heart sinks even more. His mother's house must be a rich family even if he has no rights...
After so many years, I haven't found myself.
"Ling Cen?" Mrs. Alpha, who was wearing a smart white women's suit, raised her eyebrows and asked. Ling Cen nodded unconsciously. The lady's eyes turned slightly on his lower abdomen, and she whispered, "Sit down."
Ling Cen sat down following her words.
"I'm sorry for taking the liberty to come to the door." Alpha slowed down his voice and said softly.
"It's okay..." Ling Cen responded, and quietly opened the terminal to send a message to Lu Xiao.
[Can you go home now? ] My aunt is here.
Before he could edit the second half of the sentence and send it again, Lu Xiao's message had already been pushed in...
[OK, half an hour]
Ling Cen settled down, deleted the second half of the sentence, and closed the terminal.
Alpha noticed his small movements, but didn't say anything. Instead, he sat across from him and drank tea calmly.
Ling Cen motioned for the servants to leave, and when he saw the door of the reception room closed, he said in a low voice, "Auntie?"
"No, my name is Bai Junqing. You can call me by my name. I am the president of Ike Federal Bercia Group." Seeing that he dismissed the crowd, Alpha knew that he wanted to talk to himself, so he put down the Ru kiln tea cup in his hand and stood up with one hand. Get up and signal that he doesn't need to call himself that.
Ling Cen pursed the corners of his lips in embarrassment...
Alpha continued: "The Berthea Group owns the largest mecha manufacturing company in Ike Federation. In recent years, we have also achieved good results in the research and development of medical equipment." We have won half of the market share.
"The Bai Family of Bercia Group owns more than 80% of the shares. It is one of the few inherited family businesses. My father only has two daughters."
"Your mother and I." There was a ray of warmth in Alpha's eyes, which disappeared after a while, and was covered by solid ice again.
Ling Cen understood what she meant... He wanted to ask about his mother, but he didn't know where to start. He had a hunch that he would not be happy when he knew about the past.
"Did you just send a message to your Alpha?" Mrs. Alpha who was sitting opposite him asked suddenly.
"Yeah." Ling Cen didn't hide anything.
"You are a very happy couple, congratulations." Alpha's eyes really softened this time, and he whispered sincerely.
Ling Cen put one hand on his lower abdomen, not knowing how to react, his aunt was a little strange... as if she was trying her best to speak to him with the disgust she had towards her.
But occasionally when they look at him, there is a bit of concern in the eyes that is close to the elders, and the emotions are always extremely opposite.
"I came here rashly this time, and chose a time when there was no one in the Lu family, just to clarify things with you alone." After Ling Cen was pregnant, she rarely went out and she couldn't find the time. Mrs. Lu stayed around every day, so she deliberately picked In order to send greeting cards to the door today, it is impolite to arrange the meeting time so tightly, it has its own considerations.
"Do you want to wait for your Alpha to come back before we start talking, or start now?" Alpha asked politely.
"Wait for him." Ling Cen rarely showed a little fragility. His aunt's aura made him a little afraid. All his speculations over the years will be completely revealed today... He wants Lu Xiao to accompany him.
"Okay." Alpha nodded in agreement. The corners of her lips were pulled up forcibly, as if to sneer, but also as if to regret something old.
...Is my aunt okay? Ling Cen felt a little strange.
The tea was already cold, and the servant came in for a change of tea and snacks, then quietly backed out. Twenty minutes later, Lu Xiao hurried in.
"You're here." Ling Cen got up to greet him.
Lu Xiao lingered on Mrs. Bai for a moment before responding, "Well, I'm back."
Now he knows why Ling Cen let him go home. This is the president of the Bai family, and also his biological sister who he suspects is related to Ling Cen's biological mother by blood, but he didn't continue to investigate further.
Why did she come to the door suddenly?
"Sit over here." Ling Cen gave Lu Xiao the single sofa, and the armrests on both sides would make him sit more comfortably.
With one hand, Lu Xiao moved himself onto the sofa, and Ling Cen helped him put the wheelchair aside.
Madam Bai suddenly let out a short chuckle, which scared Ling Cen to a halt. Is she really mentally abnormal?
Ling Cen looked back, but saw Alpha's sharp image of a middle-aged strong woman, and for a second his eyes glowed.
Madam Bai saw the two of them seated, with their left legs leaning slightly to the right, their right legs placed on top of their left legs, their legs close together, and the tip of their elegant high-heeled shoes facing the ground. This was a posture ready for a conversation.
"I won't go around in circles, let's just talk about it." Mrs. Bai glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice: "Last month, someone checked some of our jewelry, and later they went to check the records."
Ling Cen looked at Lu Xiao inquiringly, with a little doubt in his eyes.
Lu Xiao didn't explain to him, so Ling Cen calmly looked away. He probably knew what Lu Xiao said that day that he was going to hide himself.
Chapter 125
"I guess you already know." Mrs. Bai stared at Lu Xiao and said in a low voice.
Lu Xiao nodded slightly.
Madam Bai calmly praised: "But you didn't go down and check carefully...very smart choice."
"Ling Cen, you are doing well now. I didn't plan to disturb you again, and I didn't plan to bring up the past again." Madam Bai said softly: "But I watched the video of you defending your lover again a few days ago. I suddenly figured out something, and that’s why we have this face-to-face conversation today.”
"What do you want to say?" Ling Cen instinctively used the honorific.
"The matter of my sister, she chose to leave the Bai family in order to be with your father. Isn't it an old-fashioned story?" Madam paused slightly, then flicked the dust off the hem of the white suit with her fingertips.
"But there are also some differences. For example, she married love, but she pissed off our Eminem."
Ling Cen and Lu Xiao looked at each other instinctively, both of them were shocked, Ling Cen was even worse, his mother never mentioned this when he was around.
Madam Bai decided to tell everything today, and she is still talking about it.
Back in time, Lan Junyi was still surnamed Bai back then, she was a naive young lady, the Bai family was a family business, the eldest sister was Alpha, she was an Omega, her blood was scarce, and she did not intend to deprive her of her inheritance rights. The Bai family hopes that she can stay at home, find an Alpha at the right time, and take care of the family business with Jun Qing.
So Lan Junyi has also received qualified business training, and she met Ling Ping at a dinner party attended by her elder sister.
At that time, the old man of the Ling family was still there, and the business of the Ling family was at its peak in the history of the family. But compared with the Bai family, which has been passed down for more than ten generations, it still cannot be described as the difference between cloud and mud...the two are simply incomparable.
But Lan Junyi still fell in love with Ling Ping, who was gentle and well-spoken. When Mr. Ling learned that his son had won the favor of Miss Bai's second lady, he was also ecstatic and tried his best to match the two of them.
As long as they can get the Bai family, the Ling family's business will expand several times in an instant... In the future, they can use their backing to take it to a higher level.
Ling Ping was thinking from another angle. All he thought of was the huge amount of property he would get after marrying Lan Junyi, and Lan Junyi's Alpha status. Apart from Lan Junyi, there was only one female Alpha in this generation of the Bai family. , if he operates properly and the timing is right, he can even compete with Bai Junqing, and then the Bai family's wealth will be at his fingertips.
And these thoughts of the Ling family were seen by the Bai family at the top of the pyramid. The father and their mother talked to Lan Junyi many times, and the elder sister ran around using the evidence collected to try to wake up the younger sister.
"But I am facing you today, her and Ling Ping's children... Speaking of these things, my sister's choice is very clear." Alpha smiled wryly.
She speeded up her speech, as if she wanted to skip those bad memories and whispered: "Our mother made a trick to keep her. At that time, he needed a minor operation on his body. He threatened her that if she wanted to talk to her If Ling Ping leaves, he won't go for that operation, seeing that his illness will delay him."
"But my sister doesn't believe it. She thinks he's just saying that even if he is angry and refuses the operation, his father will force him to go." Mrs. Bai tried her best to keep her emotions from collapsing, and said calmly: "They are all Out of anger, my sister finally chose to give up her share of the Bai family property that she should inherit, and go to Suyue Xing with Ling Pingyuan."
Mr. Ling was very disappointed. His plan to gain access to the Bai family completely failed. Even Lan Junyi, the daughter-in-law, failed to bring the expected huge wealth to the Ling family.
However, Lan Junyi's excellent business sense conquered him, and Mr. Ling gradually felt that although both ideas failed, he still had a daughter-in-law with excellent business skills. With Lan Junyi around, the Ling family would have no worries for hundreds of years. Yep, he can rest in peace.
Ling Ping is much more greedy than Mr. Ling, and he couldn't turn the steering wheel in time to accept the reality... He couldn't accept that Lan Junyi's halo was shattered, and he only got a wife who was both beautiful and capable, and she didn't have the huge wealth he deserved .
Madam Bai didn't elaborate on Lan Junyi's married life. Ling Cen grew up in Ling's family. What else is unclear? It was also a wry smile, Lu Xiao gently put his hand on Ling Cen's slender wrist, Ling Cen instinctively turned his backhand under his palm, and interlocked with Lu Xiao's fingers.
Madam Bai's mental strength is B+, and she also noticed their small movements, and she was stunned again. Taking out the silver cigarette case from his pocket, he took out a delicate lady's cigarette to calm down his emotions. Before lighting it, he glanced at Ling Cen's lower abdomen, and then silently put it away.
None of the three people in the living room of Nuohui spoke, the room was completely silent, a needle could be heard, and the box closed with a "da" sound, like a thunderbolt falling.
Lu Xiao didn't know what he should do at this time, so he could only silently stay by Ling Cen's side.
Mrs. Bai played with the cigarette lighter and said in a low voice: "But our mother passed away. He was really angry and refused to accept the operation because of my younger sister's disobedience." The speed of the deterioration of the condition was beyond their imagination. By the time they reacted...it was too late.
"Father crossed out the little sister's name from Bai's family, and his body gradually weakened because he couldn't accept Ah Mu's death. I had to ascend to the position of Patriarch ahead of schedule."
"My little sister still had contact with us before Eminem's death. She tried to convince us, and we tried to get her back. But after Eminem's incident... we have no more contact." Both parties knew that the matter was irreversible.
The Bai family only distributed Lan Junyi's daily jewelry and a mine star to her. Compared with the Bai family's property, this is nothing worth mentioning.
As Mr. Ling became weak and gradually transferred power to Ling Ping, Lan Junyi's life in the Ling family became more and more difficult. The relationship between husband and wife was not what she imagined. She could only help the Ling family's business forcefully to prove that own ability, maintain status, and take care of the young Ling Cen.
But when she was a little down, Ling Ping took Li Ting into her ward. Lan Junyi was not angry anymore, she was just worried about how Ling Cen would live in the future? She has already severed contact with her family, Ling Cen is so young, who will take care of her? Worries and thoughts combined with repeated illnesses, unexpectedly stayed in Suyuexing forever.
Madam Bai said indifferently: "I've been blaming her for many years, blaming her for being an idiot. I don't know people clearly, I don't know people well. It's not enough to pay for Eminem's life, and I also put myself in it."
"I'm an idiot after having a child. You all have the same attitude towards feelings. If you recognize it, you'll be good to them. Dig out your heart and liver and show them. Do they need it? Do you want to die?"
"Put all of my wealth on the other party, without thinking deeply, never considering changes in people's hearts... Ever since I knew you were genetically matched to the Lu family, I have been waiting to see how you die!"
If Bai Junqing mentioned his sister, there was a touch of tenderness and regret in his tone that could not be concealed by indifference... Then when facing Ling Cen, he would be full of disgust and malice.
Lu Xiao frowned. His patience with this aunt had reached its limit, and he scolded his lover at their house...
"I think you should leave. The Lu family doesn't welcome you." Lu Xiao said in a deep voice, and pressed the button next to the sofa to let the guards in.
"No need." Ling Cen lowered his head and shook Lu Xiao's palm. He wanted to hear the other party finish speaking. She had avoided seeing him for many years. He didn't even know that he had such an aunt, and she suddenly appeared...Of course not to scold him. .
Madam Bai let out the depression in her heart, calmed her breath, and said with difficulty: "I said before that I thought about one thing clearly, and that's it."
"On various occasions, you have spoken out to defend your Alpha...how is it similar to your mother? Seeing you, I seem to see your mother."
She has been secretly paying attention to Ling Cen's situation. At that time, Ling Cen was still an idol star, and because of Lu Xiao's sudden announcement of his marriage, he put his career on the line...
But Lu Xiao didn't let him down, they had a good life.
"But your result is completely different from your mother's." Mrs. Bai said softly: "That's when I realized...my sister was not at fault, it was Ling Ping who was wrong, it was Ling Ping who failed her!"
"It's our family members who are wrong..."
"It's ridiculous that such a simple truth, I have been in the game for many years, and now I can't break it..." The indifference between Mrs. Bai's brows faded away and she shook her head with a wry smile. chest position.
Soon a trace of water dizzy and disappeared.
"But it's too late, isn't it? Eminem, father, and younger sister are all gone, and I'm the only one who has held resentment in my heart. After so many years, I haven't even seen my younger sister when she passed away." Mrs. Bai said in a low voice.
Ling Cen was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment. He knew too many things today, and he couldn't bear it.
"You know what happened to my mother after she came to Suyuexing, and what happened to me... Then what happened to Manli back then? Do you know?" Ling Cen couldn't help asking in a low voice.
This incident changed his life. Since then, he has been chasing fame and fortune until today. He doesn't know what answer he wants. Everything is obvious. Maybe he hopes his aunt will cheat him once...
"I know, but I didn't do anything." Bai Junqing withdrew his sad expression, and confessed without any concealment.
Holding Ling Cen's hand, Lu Xiao felt that the fresh air in Ling Cen's body was gradually being sucked away, and the warmth disappeared quickly. It was as if he was holding a piece of ice...
"Ling Cen?" Lu Xiao whispered nervously to regain his sanity.
Ling Cen got up, glanced at his only elder blood relative in this world, turned around and left in silence, he was a little tired.
Lu Xiao was used to Ling Cen helping him move. He was a little dazed for a while, but he quickly came to his senses. He pulled the wheelchair beside him and moved himself up.
"I don't think we can continue talking today." Lu Xiao said helplessly to Bai Junqing. These past events were so complicated that even he didn't know how to react to this Alpha.
"I'll wait for him here for a while. There are some things that need to be dealt with by him." Bai Junqing seemed to have not understood the order to evict guests. He sat peacefully at the same place and took a sip of the completely cold black tea.
...He has to see his Omega first, Lu Xiao thought helplessly, let her sit here first.
Lu Xiao went upstairs, deactivated the autopilot, and pushed the wheelchair into the bedroom. Ling Cen was sitting silently by the bed, hugging his belly and bowing his head, bending himself into a ball.
"I thought you were going to cry." Lu Xiao gently raised his drooping head, looked at his expression carefully, and said in a low voice with a little relief.
"There's nothing to cry about." Ling Cen moved slightly, motioning for Lu Xiao to come up.
Lu Xiao also went to bed, and sat side by side with him, Ling Cen leaned his head on his shoulder.
It took a while before he said in a low voice: "Lu Xiao, I have imagined many times how my mother's family would look when they came here."
"I think, maybe we've lost contact a long time ago, and it's possible that the Federation can't find each other..."
"Perhaps they had a hard time, and they had no other reason to come to me." Ling Cen tried his best to suppress his sobs.
When he was in trouble before, he imagined his mother's family, and felt that they would take care of him as tenderly and lovingly as his mother... It's just that he needs to solve the difficult things at hand first, or need a little time to find himself...
He just needs to wait until his mother's family arrives.
He relied on this belief to survive Ling Ping's tyranny, Li Ting's insidious schemes, and even the Manli incident that shouldn't have happened to him, but his family never showed up.
Lu Xiao hugged his waist sadly, and sat with him in silence. Ling Cen just needed him to listen.
