Chapter 40

The cold air in the room was diluted by the heat wave coming from the bathroom. Xiang Chaojue came out of the bathroom, but when he had a drink, the servant called him.

"The old gentleman asked you to go to his study."

"I see." Respond to Chao Jue flatly, then drink the whisky in the glass.

He turned his eyes and looked at the night outside the window. He thought, "sure enough, it's coming."

"Knock -" Xiang Chaojue was standing at the door of xianglaozi's study. He knocked on the door gently. "Grandfather, it's me."

Xiang Defeng said in a deep voice, "come in."

He pushed the door and entered. Xiang Defeng was playing chess. The chair opposite was empty.

Xiang Chaojue immediately understood, sat down opposite him, and took a piece to eat his gun.

Xiang Defeng looked up at him with a complicated look and said, "tell me, why do you protect Gu luanqing, that little girl? I don't know her, but I don't think it's that simple after listening to your second uncle."

Xiang Chaojue, whom he knew, was not a man who would give up his interests for the sake of morality.

Actually, it is not.

Xiang Chaojue and Xiang Defeng look at each other. The sharp eyes of each other are not so much looking at him as competing with him.

"You want to hear the truth? Or do you listen to Mandarin? " He smiles at Chao Jue and takes a son to eat the car to the old man.

But don't want to this is into the trap of to de Feng, he made a move to the dynasty Jue army, this game of chess end.

Xiang Defeng raised his eyes, "the truth."

To Chao Jue PI, he did not smile. He played chess again and said carelessly, "as you know, Lu Xing is my surrogate mother."

As soon as the voice fell, Xiang Defeng suddenly stood up, grabbed the staff and knocked on the floor, "what?! If you are not clear with her! Did she encourage you to help her? Or does she threaten you with her identity as the biological mother of Lu Xing? "

It's not for no reason why Xiang was so excited. He strongly opposed to finding someone to surrogate him. He was afraid of such a mistake, but he didn't expect that he was right.

Xiang Chaojue also stood up, walked around the table to him, bowed his head and solemnly explained, "you misunderstood me. She only recently realized this fact. I wanted to protect her."

"Who do you think you are?" Xiang Defeng was suddenly furious, and the staff hit Xiang Chaojue on his leg. He twisted his brow, endured the pain, and looked stubborn and forbearance.

To the old man pounded on the floor, denounced, "kneel down for me."

Xiang family has always maintained the old tradition of family law. Once anyone makes a mistake, no matter the old, the weak, the sick or the disabled, they have to accept the family law. The executor is undoubtedly Xiang Defeng, who is in charge of the family.

Xiang Chaojue was familiar with this feeling. He knelt down without resistance and looked at the floor with perseverance.

Xiang Dafeng began to gasp. He turned his back to Xiang Chaojue. His dignified appearance was twisted, and even his white beard trembled.

"I told you not to do stupid things all the time. You don't listen to me. Now, you're just looking for trouble for yourself. That woman's origin is not clear. If she wants to drag you down, it's not easy for you to take the attitude of not being a country but a beauty."

Word by word, they all demoted Xiang Chaojue and Gu luanqing to the lowest point.

Clench one's teeth to Chao Jue, he can't talk back, otherwise the consequence will be more serious than now.

He is only qualified to speak to him.

"I ask you, are you going to go on like this? Even if the sales of new products continue to decline, you still have to protect her? " Xiang Defeng is heartbroken. He has high expectations for Xiang Chaojue. He thinks that this grandson is different from those dandies in his family. In the end, he is greatly disappointed.

Swallowing to Chao Jue, the Adam's apple rolling up and down his neck, he strained his face and put his hand on his knee.

"No, it will only be like this for the time being. It will be OK after this storm. Even if my judgment is wrong, I will take measures to remedy it and will not let Xiangshi group suffer losses."

As soon as the words fell, Xiang's crutch fell down and hit Xiang Chaojue on his back with a dull sound.

Xiang Chaojue didn't dodge. He gritted his teeth and endured. Xiang Defeng didn't stop fighting. He beat several times again. Until he was gasping, he had to take away his staff.

The body under the loose household clothes is already black and blue, but Xiang Chaojue's expression is consistent, calm as if there is no waves.

He gasped for breath, pointed to his nose and asked, "I won't ask about the company. Now what are you going to do? Do you want to marry that woman of unknown origin? "

"She doesn't come from an unknown source. I really want to marry her. Lu Xing needs a mother to accompany him to grow up. I don't think she will be the kind of person who is greedy for glory and wealth." Xiang Chaojue is still talking for Gu luanqing and doesn't intend to give in.

At the beginning, Gu luanqing stood on a high place. For her, wealth was just a routine. Later, she fell down and washed away. Wealth was just a tool for her survival.

However, Xiang didn't understand it, and he didn't want to understand it. He hated Xiang Chaojue's words. He was so angry that he trembled all over, "it seems that you haven't awakened yet! What's so good about a woman who will surrogate a strange man for money? You dare to bring her into xiangmen's home. You -- I'm so angry with you

Xiang Chaojue is still that attitude, "I will use time to prove that my judgment is correct. I hope you can give me a chance."

Now they don't speculate, and it's useless to talk more. They just get up to Chao Jue and offer to leave, "if there's nothing else, I won't disturb you."

"..." turned to the old man, his gloomy face still.

Xiang Chaojue took it as his acquiescence and quickly left the study. After he left, Xiang Defeng felt angry and threw his crutch to the floor. "Bastard!"

Behind the door, Xiang Xirong leaned against the wall and called Xiang Chaojue, "Hey, what are you discussing with dad?"

He wanted to eavesdrop, but he didn't want the sound insulation effect of the study to be too good. He only heard Xiang Defeng beat Xiang Chaojue in his anger.

He turned his head to Chao Jue, his dark eyes turned to the corner of his eyes, and looked coldly at Xiang Xirong, whose eyes were enough to kill people.

Xiang Xirong was stunned. He consciously closed his mouth and didn't speak any more. But Xiang Chaojue didn't say a word. He turned back and walked quickly to the deep corridor.

Until dawn, Xiang Chaojue didn't wait for Xiang Defeng to go downstairs, so he drove away from Xiangzhai.

He received a call from the hospital nurse yesterday, telling him Xiang Luxing couldn't sleep yesterday because of the wound pain and wanted to find him.

Xiang Chaojue has time to go to the hospital today. In order to compensate Xiang Luxing, he asked his assistant to buy imported toys for him as a gift.

When he arrived at the hospital, Gu luanqing was already sitting in the ward, laughing at Lu Xing, not like a patient at all.

Xiang Chaojue was stunned. She stood at the door and didn't go in until Gu luanqing turned back and looked at him. She turned red. She stood up to greet him and covered his hot ears with her hands. "I heard that Lu Xing was unhappy, so I wanted to accompany him."

In order to meet Lu Xing, she has been in the hospital for an hour now and hasn't visited Gu yuanrang.

Xiang Chaojue held back his smile and nodded, "thank you."

"It's nothing. Anyway, I'm his mother too, isn't it..." Gu Luan Qing whispered more and more. He didn't know about Lu Xing, so he stretched out his hand to hold her, "sister, are you going to leave?"

Gu luanqing turned around, shook his hand with a smile, and let him lie down. Seeing that he had dark circles under his eyes when he was young, her face became paler and paler, and her heart became heavy.

Liu Mei wrinkled, she forced a smile, "Lu Xing sleep I go, you are not tired? Go to sleep. "

"Good." He rubbed his sleepy eyes to Lu Xing, as if the wound was not so painful. His eyelids became heavier and heavier until he closed them.

Gu luanqing sings a nursery rhyme to him in a low voice. The songs he hums are not in tune, which makes Xiang Chaojue smile.

The subtle laughter stirred Gu luanqing's sensitive nerves. She turned red and glared at him, "what are you laughing at?"

Singing out of tune can't blame her. She is also a mother for the first time.

"I didn't laugh." He turned to Chao Jue, pretending to be calm and teasing her, "since Lu Xing is asleep, why don't we talk outside? Or do you want to wake him up by singing out of tune again? "

Gu Luan's Qi is so weak that she can't do anything about him. She stomps her feet hard and goes out of the ward by herself.

In the past, it was still the mayor's daughter, and the lady's temper is still there.

Xiang Chao Jue smiles, shakes his head and goes out quickly.

Sitting side by side on the corridor outside the door, Gu luanqing chatted with Xiang Chaojue without a word.

Although the atmosphere is still a little awkward, she has been able to chat with him freely.

Her every twinkle and smile fell on the bottom of Xiang Chaojue's eyes. His eyes were firm and determined.

Xiang Luxing's mother must be her.

A cold wind suddenly blew open the window at the end of the corridor. The cold wind poured in and scattered Gu luanqing's long hair. She turned her head and the nurse from the common ward downstairs came face to face.

As soon as the nurse stopped, she blushed and began to curse, "Gu luanqing! What's the matter with you? You haven't changed your father's number clothes until now. What's the matter? You expect us to change it for your dad? "

Since Gu luanqing's scandal, and Gu yuanrang's being accused of corruption and deliberately evading responsibility, people in the hospital have become more and more indifferent to Gu. Gu yuanrang's care in the hospital can't even compare with other patients in the ordinary ward.

Gu luanqing has been used to other people's bad words. He is a little calm and says, "I'm coming right now. Thank you for coming to me specially. However, I just changed my father's clothes yesterday. Don't worry."

"Who cares about you." Nurses also have nothing to look for, where will take it seriously.

As soon as the nurse left, it was time for Gu luanqing to go downstairs. Her smile was a little bit sorry and reluctant. "I'm sorry to make you laugh. I'm going to take care of my dad now. I'll talk when I'm free."

"Good."

Gu luanqing looked at him again and again, then turned back and left facing the cold wind.

Xiang Chaojue didn't stay in the corridor alone for a long time. When he went back to the ward, he didn't want to open the door. He saw Xiang Luxing standing at the door, staggering and about to fall.

Xiang Chaojue quickly picked up the man and put him on the sickbed, "why did he suddenly run out? Don't you mean to go to bed? Or are you not sleepy? "
