During the banquet, Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun inevitably bickered. Luo Xiaoxi, who was not too upset by the excitement, fanned the flames. The Lu family's restaurant was unprecedentedly lively.
Su Jian'an was so amused by them that she fell into Lu Boyan's arms. She was originally low on energy and appetite, but not only was she in a good mood and ate everything Lu Boyan gave her, she was even coaxed by Lu Boyan to drink it. Big bowl of soup.
After the meal, Shen Yuechuan wanted to play cards at the table. Lu Boyan had no intention of joining. Shen Yuechuan expressed his confusion: "There is nothing to do anyway, why not play a few games?"
"Who told you I'm fine?" Lu Boyan handed the warm water to Su Jian'an and said naturally, "I want to stay with my wife."
Shen Yuechuan: "..." Damn, it's amazing to have a wife!
Su Jianan was amused by Shen Yuechuan's depressed expression, took the water and said to Lu Boyan: "Go ahead, Yunyun will accompany me."
Luo Xiaoxi and Su Yicheng were also calling Lu Boyan.
In the end, Lu Boyan couldn't resist their calls. He squatted down in front of Su Jianan, touched her belly, and spoke to the two little guys from a distance: "Be good, don't make mommy uncomfortable."
Then, Lu Boyan joined the heated poker game.
Xiao Yunyun came close to Su Jianan and said with an envious look: "Cousin, I'm going to Taobao to search for a husband of the same style as my brother-in-law!" To marry such a man, she was willing to sacrifice her heart, lungs, and kidneys!
Su Jian'an laughed: "The same model is no longer available, but you can search for similar ones." She tapped Shen Yuechuan with her chin, "He's pretty good."
Xiao Yunyun stuck out her tongue: "Why do people say he is good? He is obviously a big changer!"
"But he still helped you find your phone and sent you home, didn't he?" Su Jian'an said, "Don't always be biased against him just because he tied you up. Shen Yuechuan is very popular with girls in the company."
"Attracting bees and butterflies! He also likes to destroy others! I was having a good chat with Qin Yang that day, and he suddenly came in like he knew me well and trampled all my peach blossoms to death." Xiao Yunyun said angrily. ,"I hate him!"
Su Jianan smiled and said nothing more.
She knew very well that Yunyun was grateful to Shen Yuechuan in her heart.
Qin Yang is a veteran in love, so he must have lost Xiao Yunyun's contact information a long time ago. However, because of Shen Yuechuan's reminder, Xiao Yunyun was more cautious when dealing with Qin Yang. After a few days, Qin Yang was still a peach blossom. Xiao Yunyun probably already knew the rotten peach blossoms.
He said he hated Shen Yuechuan, but in fact, Xiao Yunyun still believed in him.
Su Jianan stood up: "Go and see how they are playing cards."
Walking behind Lu Boyan, Shen Yuechuan and Luo Xiaoxi were giving him money. Su Jianan asked curiously: "You won?"
Lu Boyan kissed Su Jianan's face: "I won half a can of milk powder."
Su Jianan smiled lightly, wrapped her hands around Lu Boyan's neck from behind, leaned half against him, and watched him fight.
Lu Boyan is very good at playing cards and plays cards quickly. Watching him play cards is like watching him strategize and guide the country. It is a kind of enjoyment for Su Jianan.
Lu Boyan was worried that Su Jianan was tired, so he asked her: "Ask Uncle Xu to get you a stool?"
"No need." Su Jian'an said, "I lay down all afternoon and it's just right to stand for a while."
Lu Boyan's brows and eyes were full of tenderness. He looked at Su Jianan and smiled, then turned his head and continued to fight at the card table with a calm look.
For the next three or four games, Lu Boyan will definitely win every one.
Shen Yuechuan rubbed his hands and said: "Jian An, are you the goddess of luck? Standing behind Bo Yan brought all the good luck to him. No, you should circle around us." Good luck, everyone gets it. A little is only fair.
"Get lost." Lu Boyan threw an eight-barrel ball at Shen Yuechuan, "Why should my wife hang around you?"
Shen Yuechuan glanced around and found that he seemed to be the only single person on the card table.
Life is really lonely as snow, even if you want to find someone of the same kind to form a clique with you.
Seeing how many games Lu Boyan had won, Su Jianan yawned. Just as she was about to tell Lu Boyan that she would go back to the room to sleep first, Lu Boyan turned to her and asked, "Are you sleepy?"
Su Jianan nodded: "You continue, I will first..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Boyan had already stood up from his seat: "Yunyun, come here and replace me."
"Me?" Xiao Yunyun has no confidence at all, "I just know the rules and I don't have any poker skills."
"It doesn't matter." Lu Boyan pointed to the money he put in the small drawer, "It's enough for you to lose for one night."
After saying that, he took Su Jianan upstairs.
Su Jianan was really sleepy. She got into bed after taking a shower. When she was about to fall asleep, she felt Lu Boyan carefully lay down next to her.
The average pregnant woman shows her pregnancy at a little more than three months. She may have two little ones in her belly. She can already clearly see the bulge in her belly while wearing only pajamas. Lu Boyan is always careful, so she shows her pregnancy. Later, he was even more cautious, as if she were a fragile piece of porcelain that couldn't withstand the slightest impact.
Su Jian'an knew nothing would happen, so she leaned into Lu Boyan's arms, felt him holding her tightly, and finally fell asleep peacefully.
Not long after, the card game downstairs also ended.
Xiao Yunyun lost half of the money Lu Boyan won just now with her scumbag skills. She estimated that the rest was enough for a midnight snack, so she said: "I'll treat you to a midnight snack on behalf of my cousin-in-law. What do you want to eat?" ?”
Su Yicheng was not interested in late-night snacks or anything like that. He just wanted to go back with Luo Xiaoxi and try out the big villa. He said unmoved, "You go ahead and let Yue Chuan take you home."
After saying that, Su Yicheng and Luo Xiaoxi left with peace of mind.
The first person to be depressed was Shen Yuechuan. He looked at Xiao Yunyun: "Why do I feel like I have become your full-time driver?"
Xiao Yunyun raised her lips and smiled brightly: "I know you are honored!"
Shen Yuechuan: "..."
But since they all lived in the city center anyway, Shen Yuechuan thought they were just on their way, opened the car door and asked Miss Xiao to get in the car.
When the car drove onto the highway, Shen Yuechuan's head suddenly became dizzy, and the car almost lost control and hit a car in the lane next to him. Fortunately, at the last moment, he regained control of the steering wheel and quickly regained his composure.
Xiao Yunyun was so frightened by the accident in just a few seconds that her face turned pale: "Shen Yuechuan, are you okay? Do you want me to drive?"
"It's okay." Shen Yuechuan shook his head and forced himself to stay awake, "Maybe it's because I've been too busy recently and I'm a little tired."
After saying that, Shen Yuechuan realized that his tone was complaining.
That's funny. What was he complaining to Xiao Yunyun about? Did he let her make fun of him?
Shen Yuechuan speeded up the car and drove Xiao Yunyun back to the downstairs of the apartment: "I won't eat with you for midnight snacks. You can order takeout yourself if you want to eat. You live alone. Don't let takeout go upstairs so late. Call the lobby The security guard will send it to you."
Xiao Yunyun originally wanted to dislike Shen Yuechuan for being verbose, but no one had warned her like this for a long time. She nodded: "You go back and drive carefully."
It's really strange that in front of Su Jianan and the others, she and Shen Yuechuan had a great time bickering with each other, but privately, she didn't want to have a verbal spat with him.
She even suspected that she was trying to hide something in front of Su Jianan.
Seeing Xiao Yunyun enter the apartment door, Shen Yuechuan turned the car and drove towards his apartment.
The uncomfortable feeling didn't reappear, and he was even more convinced that it was because he hadn't had a good rest recently. As soon as he returned to the apartment, he threw himself on the bed, pulled the quilt over himself, and fell into a deep sleep.
He always sleeps well and seldom dreams, but strangely, he had a dream tonight.
In the dream, he went back to when he was very young, and for the first time he knew that he was an abandoned person - he had no parents, only the dean. He also had no brothers and sisters, only a group of peers who were abandoned like him.
He didn't pester the dean like other children, asking why he was abandoned, and he didn't want to be adopted, so every time a well-dressed couple came to adopt a child, he would hide as much as he could, but often he couldn't.
When he was a child, he was very handsome, with black hair, black pupils, and fair and clean skin, so few couples minded that he was Asian. They walked up to him and asked: "Will you come home with us and call us daddy?" Mommy?"
There was a calmness beyond his age in his eyes: "But you are not my daddy and mommy."
The adoptive couple sighed and took away the child who was willing to call them daddy and mommy.
The dean was very helpless towards him, but he was always reluctant to blame him. He just asked: "Joshua, why don't you want to be adopted?"
When he was a child, he had a sweet mouth, hugged the dean and said, "I can't bear to leave you."
In reality?
It's because he still has expectations for his biological parents, and he is waiting for them to take him back.
Others and the dean liked him so much. The person who gave him life should like him even more.
He didn't know where such strange thoughts came from at such a young age. He waited almost stubbornly until he understood the word "survival".
When he was fifteen years old, the management of the orphanage was in trouble. At that time, he was the oldest child in the orphanage. The elderly director regarded him as his own son, and he offered to help the director share the burden.
At that time, there was a very profitable business, but it was basically monopolized by local gangsters. He thought of ways to steal business from the tattooed youths who smoked marijuana and rode motorcycles on the streets, and soon he had a group of stable customers. , also attracted attention.
A month later, he earned 40,000 US dollars and handed it over to the dean. After school, he was chased by a group of people on motorcycles. He was eventually blocked in an alley and held at gunpoint by a black-skinned guy who was twice as strong as him. His forehead, asking him to hand over his business.
At that time, he knew very well that even if he compromised, he would still be beaten violently.
So he grabbed the gun and put it against the other person's head: "Now, who is going to hand over the business to whom?"
There were many people on the other side, but he didn't dare to actually shoot, so he was captured in the end. It was at that time that Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue appeared in his life, pulling him back from the edge of death and giving him A risky but lucrative job, he spent half of his money on studying and gave the other half to the director to maintain the operation of the orphanage.
He skipped grades one after another. His high school classmates were still junior students of others, but he had graduated from that well-known institution. Lu Boyan helped him solve the management problems of the orphanage, and he also had a new identity - a member of the Lu Group.
Special Assistant to the President.
He followed Lu Boyan back to City A, the place where his biological mother was said to have lived since childhood. Not that he had never thought of looking for her, Lu Boyan even secretly helped him look for her.
But he didn't know why. In the end, he stopped Lu Boyan and didn't let anyone expose his life experience.
Maybe because after waiting for so many years, he has despaired of his so-called relatives.
Or maybe, he doesn't want to know why he was abandoned.
