C139 A Family of Three
"Accompany the child more. Although the child was unconscious just now, he still kept calling for his father." The doctor left after he finished speaking.
Qiao Yumeng and Lu Chen looked at each other. Both of them had mixed feelings.
Qiao Yuxi called her father because she wanted a father.
"Yuxi is fine. That is the greatest fortune." Lu Chen reached out and held Qiao Yumeng's hand. "I was planning to take you and Yuxi to dinner today, but you were not at home. My phone was turned off again. I wanted to take Yuxi to dinner alone. My father asked me out before I went."
"Yes." Qiao Yumeng nodded. She wanted to follow Lu Tianhan, so she naturally did not dare to turn on the phone.
"My father likes Yuxi very much." Lu Chen reached out and held Qiao Yumeng's shoulder. "He said that he would choose a suitable day to hold our wedding."
"Marry?" Qiao Yumeng looked at Lu Chen in a daze.
"I know too fast." Lu Chen comforted her with a smile. "That is why I told my dad to get engaged first. There is no hurry to get married."
"Okay." Qiao Yumeng nodded and hid her thoughts.
Lu Chen treated her very well. It was so good that she felt guilty and married him. However, when she thought about getting married and secretly following Lu Tianhan now, she had an indescribable complicated feeling about getting married.
Qiao Yuxi stayed in the hospital for five days and was discharged. Ning Xin did not urge Qiao Yumeng but let her live a rare peaceful life.
"Mom, Yuxi has not eaten the food that you personally cooked for a long time. Will you cook today?" Qiao Yuxi sat on the hospital bed and her big eyes rolled around.
"Okay." Qiao Yumeng reached out and touched the top of her head.
"Then I will go with you to buy groceries and send Yuxi home first. Let uncle take care of her?" Lu Chen asked as he picked up the things in the ward.
"No, I want to go too." Qiao Yuxi answered first.
"There are a lot of people in the supermarket. Mama and Uncle Lu will be carrying things later. There is no free time to hold Yuxi's hand." Qiao Yumeng reached out and held Qiao Yuxi in her arms.
Qiao Yuxi wrapped her arms around Qiao Yumeng's neck and said, "But Yuxi wants to go to the supermarket to buy a gift for Uncle Lu."
"A gift?" Lu Chen suddenly felt very surprised, "Yuxi wants to give me a gift?"
Lu Chen did not know that the joy in his eyes was almost overflowing.
"That's right. Uncle Lu has taken care of Yuxi for so long. Yuxi wants to give Uncle Lu a present." After Qiao Yuxi finished, she added, "Of course, it cannot be more than 200 yuan."
"Where did you get the money?" Qiao Yumeng smiled.
"Of course it was the pocket money my mother gave me and saved it."
"You know how to save money at such a young age? Little miser." Qiao Yumeng teased Qiao Yuxi.
"This is not a miser. He knows how to manage money." Lu Chen refuted.
"Yes, yes. Uncle Lu is right."
The three of them didn't realize that they were getting along so well, like a real family of three.
After sending the food home, the three of them went to the supermarket near the neighborhood. Qiao Yuxi was not like ordinary children. When she saw food and toys, she pestered her parents and said that she wanted them. Instead, she was seriously looking for a gift suitable for Lu Chen.
"Uncle Lu, look at that!" Qiao Yuxi looked at the set of cups excitedly.
The cups were a set of equipment. Although there were only three cups, it was obvious that they were family equipment and the price was cheap. They only needed 60 cups.
"Yuxi wants to give that to Uncle Lu?" Qiao Yumeng took the cup off the shelf.
Actually, when she saw such a suggestive set of equipment, she subconsciously wanted to reject it, but she had already agreed to Lu Chen's proposal. Qiao Yuxi also liked Lu Chen that much.1
"Yeah, one for each person, okay?" Qiao Yuxi looked at Lu Chen expectantly.
"Okay." Lu Chen was very patient. He held the cup in his hand.
"Okay. We have to pay separately for this cup later. It is a gift from Yuxi for Uncle Lu and his mother." After she finished speaking, a hint of shyness flashed across her small face, "Of course, it's also Yuxi's gift to me."
The cup Qiao Yuxi bought was probably the cheapest one among the things Lu Chen used, but he liked it very much and even brought it to the company.
"Mr Lu, this cup..." Lu Chen's assistant looked at the cup that did not match the overall style of Lu Chen's office in surprise.
"It's a gift from a little angel." Lu Chen's eyes showed affection when Qiao Yuxi was mentioned.
"No wonder." The assistant nodded in understanding.
After work, Lu Tianhan looked for him again. The father and son decided to meet Ning Xin together and talk to her about Lu Chen and Qiao Yumeng's engagement.
Although Lu Tianhan had already acknowledged Qiao Yumeng as his daughter-in-law in his heart, Ning Xin's side was not certain.
On the way there, Lu Chen was actually a little nervous. This kind of nervous cold sweat did not even appear during the college entrance exam.
"Son, you have to believe in your mother. In her heart, your happiness is the most important." Lu Tianhan still believed that the once considerate Ning Xin would return.
"Yes." Lu Chen nodded.
When they returned to the Lu family, the first person they saw was Xu Wanwan.
"Cousin!" Xu Wanwan rushed over and threw herself into Lu Chen's arms. She put her arms around his neck.
"Curve?" Lu Chen frowned and pushed her away. "When did you come?"
"I came to visit my aunt today." Xu Wanwan tacitly ignored Lu Chen's harsh tone when she was at the clubhouse.
"You're back?" Ning Xin came down from upstairs. She did not show much surprise when Lu Tianhan and his son appeared.
"Mom." Lu Chen walked up and looked at Ning Xin carefully. After confirming that she still looked the same, he said, "We have been too busy with work recently. It has been a long time since our family gathered together."
Ning Xin nodded and looked at Lu Tianhan.
"Cough." Lu Tianhan cleared his throat. The cold expression in front of others disappeared the moment he saw Ning Xin.
Ning Xin glanced at him. She did not give face to Lu Tianhan just because Xu Wanwan was an outsider. She turned around and left.
"Dad." Lu Chen quickly pushed Lu Tianhan to chase after him.
Lu Tianhan nodded and ran upstairs. Soon, the bedroom door was closed, blocking all sounds.
"Cousin, I heard you proposed to Fu Qianchen's ex-wife a few days ago." Xu Wanwan blinked her big eyes and looked at Lu Chen innocently.
"Yes." Lu Chen replied and took out his phone to flip through. He ignored Xu Wanwan.
Xu Wanwan was not angry. She took out her phone in front of Lu Chen and contacted a friend of hers. She asked him to follow Qiao Yumeng. It would be best if he could find Qiao Yumeng's secret.
After the message was sent, Xu Wanwan looked up at Lu Chen. The smile on her face became wider.
Did she ask if she would agree to marry Lu Chen?
