Chapter 59
Cheng Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, touched the place beside her, it was cold, and then she remembered that Lu Jinyan had gone abroad on a business trip, and she was alone these few days.

Habit is a terrible thing. When you get used to a person, it is like air. If he is not around for a while, you feel as if something is missing.

They hadn't been married for a long time, and she almost half-forcibly accepted his domineering feelings, and those little things in getting along were so touching and tender in blood.

At [-]:[-], the phone rang on time. When she saw it was a familiar number, a smile appeared on her lips.

"Hey."

"Haven't woken up yet? Remember to eat breakfast and go to bed after eating. Don't go hungry." The gentle voice came from the other side of the Pacific Ocean, half a world away, still so missed.

"What about you? It's midnight over there, right? Why don't you go to sleep?"

"Sleep after talking on the phone with you."

A burst of sweetness welled up in Cheng Xiaoxiao's heart. He must be reluctant to wake himself up too early, so he waited until now.

"Go to bed quickly, you can finish the work anytime, don't make yourself too tired, don't compress together." In order to come back early and squeeze herself into an iron man, she will feel distressed.

"I know, but I want to hear your voice so I can fall asleep."

"You've only been away for two days."

"Well, seeing each other every day is like three autumns, how long have you counted in two days?"

"Pfft!" She grabbed the pillow and sat up, leaning against the head of the bed and continuing to chat with him. Outside the window, the sun had already shone on the window sill, and a little light was falling.

"Little Bie is better than a newlywed. We are properly separated in this way, which is conducive to the development of the relationship, so as not to soon see and hate each other and affect the harmony of the husband and wife."

Lu Jinyan snorted at that part: "So you want me to go abroad for a business trip?"

"Of course not..." She immediately begged for mercy.

"Then what do you mean?"

"I mean, you can use it as a seasoning for our emotional life. After you come back, we will be in a better state. Isn't that very happy?"

Lu Jinyan thought about it, but he didn't seem to think so.

"Next time you come with me."

"I'm airsick."

"It's okay, I won't make my baby feel uncomfortable, I'll help you overcome this difficulty." He smiled and set the rules.

"Okay, it's time for me to go to bed. Get up and have breakfast. Don't go out if you have nothing to do. It's not safe outside. Wait for me to come back."

After hanging up the phone, it took a while for Cheng Xiaoxiao to throw off the quilt and get out of bed. The nanny had already prepared meals, but there was no one beside her, so she couldn't eat anymore.

Lu Jinyan was dressed in a suit and sat under the lamp, with several documents spread out on the table. He rubbed his forehead and continued to devote himself to it.

A week was too long for him, even tormented, he couldn't wait to go back, embrace her gentle body, and have intimate contact with her.

In this strange and familiar place, without her by my side, everything is meaningless, working like a machine, just to go back early and stay by her side.

Many times, his desire for exclusiveness is very astonishing, but he has suppressed and controlled it as much as possible, for fear of scaring her. It is the same this time on a business trip. He wants her to come with him, but he holds back in the end.

Don't be in a hurry, take your time, and finally keep her by your side, and don't let her have another chance to leave.

Almost every day at this time, Cheng Xiaoxiao wakes up and receives his call, but a few days later, what greets her is not the surprise of his return, but an eye-popping news.

The Lu family has attracted much attention, especially the issue of the heir. Lu Jinyan did not deliberately conceal the fact of marriage, but he did not officially disclose it either.

This decision was agreed by Cheng Xiaoxiao, she didn't want too much media attention, she just wanted to live a peaceful life.

In addition to my own past, I don't want to be exposed naked by the media, and use it as a joke for everyone's entertainment.

However, it was such a loophole that made them ignore a problem, the position of Lu's president's wife.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's first reaction when she saw the gossip news was to be stunned.

Because she didn't believe that Lu Jinyan was such a person, but that woman was so dazzling and radiant, standing beside him with a happy smile on her face.

It seems that the relationship between the two is so close, and the posture is ambiguous, but Lu Jinyan seems to be used to it, and this angle is so tricky.

After the media took it, this photo exploded in gossip magazines, and everyone was guessing that the future Mrs. Lu would be released.

Many newspapers and magazines are even frantically broadcasting the news about that woman, and she is in the limelight for a while. He is the golden bachelor that women in City A most want to marry, but she is the woman who attracts the most attention among the ladies.

He has a good family background, returned from studying abroad, has good looks, and is almost impeccable. Standing with Lu Jinyan, it seems like a match made in heaven, which is enviable and praised.

The photo was taken on a foreign street. The two were very close, whispering to each other very ambiguously, which caused a sensation in the media.

Rumors are flying all over the sky, but she is in Lu Jinyan's villa, waiting for him to come back, should she believe it or not?
She never wanted to suspect such a scandal, but the other party was too good. That woman was the only daughter of the He family in City A. She only returned from studying abroad half a year ago. How could she appear abroad with him now?

What the media said hit the nail on the head, and Cheng Xiaoxiao had to admit that with such a family background, marrying Lu Jinyan was absolutely a match.

When the familiar ringtone rang, Cheng Xiaoxiao took the phone and frowned at the phone on it.

"Hey."

"Is it Xiaoxiao?"

"Hello, I am, who are you?"

"I'm Lu Jinyan's second aunt, you met me in the hospital."

Cheng Xiaoxiao was baffled, the other party called her at this time, could it be because of the gossip magazine?

"It's Second Aunt, I remembered, what can you do for me?"

Her premonition came true, and the other party said on the phone: "Xiaoxiao, it's like this. The old man asked me to tell you that everything in the gossip news is true. His going abroad is both a business and a private matter. The He family is We have already decided on a blind date, now you should know what to choose, right?"

"Second Aunt, how do I know that Dad really wanted to say these words, or did you want to tell me?" Cheng Xiaoxiao resisted the shock in her heart and said calmly.

The other party was very angry by her, and retorted: "The old man is not in good health now, and I don't want to be mad at you, so I will be the sinner. You have also seen that they are the right family, made in heaven, and praised by the media. If you If that is the case, it is conceivable that Lu's stock price will not rise by then, and I am afraid that it will fall by the limit at the opening of the market."

"So what do you mean?"

"The old man hopes that you will make a decision as soon as possible, and don't regret it when the time comes. If you really sincerely announce this news, it will be much more cruel. Have you ever thought about it?"

She thought of the other party's tired phone call every night, his gentle voice in her ears, and everything he had done, whether it was too unfair to him to believe these unfounded rumors based on a single photo.

"Thank you, Master Lu, for me, but I will not agree to this matter, unless he tells me personally, then I will definitely not have any complaints at that time, and I will withdraw voluntarily and never appear in front of him."

"You don't have to drink a toast, Cheng Xiaoxiao, you really don't know what to do." The second aunt warned her angrily on the other end of the phone.

After hanging up the phone, she had complicated thoughts and believed that Lu Jinyan would not be difficult, but the current situation has exceeded her expectations too much.

When she was not ready, all difficulties hit her head on.

Two days later, Lu Jinyan never came back, nor did he call. At this time, the gossip magazine published new content.

Lu's president's night party with the daughter of the He family, the talented man and the woman look like a good thing is about to happen?
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to pay attention, but the news was overwhelming, and people in the Lu family kept reminding herself that it was difficult for her to ignore it.

The photos are clearer, and the two are even closer than last time. They are still abroad. Cheng Xiaoxiao picked up her mobile phone to call Lu Jinyan several times, but it showed that she couldn't get through.

She couldn't help but have doubts in her heart. He delayed his return, but there was no news. He even released such a photo. What was his intention?
Master Lu pressed on every step of the way, and she was gradually unable to support herself. If it wasn't for the fact that the Cheng family was already in her hands, she was really worried that she would be shaken.

But Master Lu will know sooner or later, at that time, what method will he come up with to deal with him?

On the third day, the news of this man's return finally came. He did not take the initiative to inform him, but the entertainment gossip in City A caught him appearing from the airport with the daughter of the He family.

The daughter of the He family was interviewed afterwards, and she seemed to be secretive about whether the two were in love or not, which the media paid attention to, making people even more suspicious of the rumors between the two.

Afterwards, some relatives and friends claimed that the two were about to get engaged, that the Lu family had decided on a daughter-in-law, that the elders of He's family had already nodded their heads, and so on.

Cheng Xiaoxiao lay on the sofa, put aside the remote control in her hand, and turned off the TV.

She had to admit that this man carried most of her emotions, and anything about him could be easily affected.

Especially this time, the scandal that had caused a lot of noise disappeared suddenly, leaving her alone in fear, waiting for him to come back.

I couldn't help calling my phone again, but there was no message or call on it, and I opened WeChat, but there was no movement on his profile picture.

After a long time, she edited a message and sent it, asking when he will come back?
After waiting for a while, there was no reply as expected, she turned off the phone in frustration, hugged the pillow and closed her eyes, her mind was clear and messy, and she fell asleep in a daze.

In the dream, she saw herself in the church, and Lu Jinyan was holding other people's hands to make an oath in front of the priest. She stood in the crowd and watched from a distance. The bride was her, He Yiqing.

She wanted to rush over and ask him why, but she couldn't move any further, she could only just look at him from a distance, her heart hurt like a knife, her lips trembled, and she couldn't make any sound.

"Look, I just said he can't be with a woman like you."

"What are you still doing standing here, get out."

"Who do you think you are? Only a woman like He Yiqing is worthy of our Lu family."

Her ears were filled with scolding, she covered her ears, the man was watching her from afar, with a smile on his lips, watching her being driven away, humiliated...

"No...Jinyan...Jinyan...Lu Jinyan..."

She woke up from the dream after struggling, and what greeted her was his handsome and tired face, as well as his warm embrace.

"Nightmare?" The temperature of the fingertips fell on the face, very clear.

She held his face in both hands and looked at it carefully, with unfading horror in her eyes: "You're back? Is it really you?"
