Chapter 367
60th birthday banquet?
Was she complaining that he was old?
The girls nowadays all liked to marry men who were 10 years older than them, because these men would typically be rich, powerful, and successful, but after many of them really had them in their embrace, they would act just like her — they would use their young age to their advantage.
Lu Shaoming was not angered, but he actually curled the corners of his lips up as he laughed out loud.
He stretched out his hand to pin her soft small waist down. Lu Shaoming kissed the lipstick on her lips. She rarely applied lipstick so the probability of kissing her lipstick was very rare. He was particular in his personal life. He liked to be clean, and he did not like to kiss lipstick. In the past, he also thought that his wife did not like to apply lipstick.
But now, when he kissed her, it felt pretty good.
“If I am 60 years old, you are 49 years old. No matter how I think about it, I am the party benefiting from this deal. If you are an older sister in Little Qinwen’s eyes, then what am I? An Uncle? Heh, why didn’t think of this last night? You should call me uncle to try it out. I want to see if an Uncle brings his niece to try it out, would it be exciting or not.”
Ning Qing’s small face turned red. She always knew that he liked to crack dirty jokes for no particular reason, but she didn’t expect his taste to be so peculiar this time.
The cold wind blew. Lu Shaoming looked at her hair as it flew in the wind.
Lu Shaoming curled the corners of his lips up. This woman was even busier than him right now!
She did not even want one more sentence with him?
Yue Wanqing carried Little Qinwen in her arms to have a look. “Shaoming, come and eat your breakfast quickly. You don’t have to worry about Qingqing. She rarely eats breakfast at home. She has her own assistant. There’s someone to help her organize her life.”
“Okay.” Lu Shaoming stretched out his hand to shut the door of the villa, then turned around as he headed into the dining room.
He did not object to her having her own work, but she could not work too much.
He did not need women to earn money.
Over these six months, the two of them had been separated for a huge period of time due to the love spell. Added to the year of him losing his memories, that silly man pampered her too much, and she became wild with his pampering. There were many aspects of her that he needed to correct.
Lu Shaoming gulped some milk. The sun outside the window spewed through the French windows. As the rays of the sun came through, they gave the man a mysterious air. He looked at Little Qinwen, who was sitting by his side. He was in a good mood as he softly said, “Son, you have to stick around with Mama for a long time, okay? Daddy doesn’t like Mama to go outside frequently. We need to reel Mama back.”
Little Qinwen did not understand anything. He salivated as he looked at his Daddy in a blur.
“Son, your Mama is too young. She still does not understand. What is a woman’s career? A woman’s first career would forever be her own man, her second career is our Little Qin Wen, and the third career would then be work. Furthermore, we both still need Mama to work harder, and she should quickly produce a younger sister for Little Qinwen.”
Mentioning a younger sister, Lu Shaoming’s entire handsome face was extremely apparent as he bent down. Placing his elbow on the baby pram, he stretched two fingers out to tease his son’s soft jaw. “Does Little Qinwen want a younger sister? Your younger sister would be as pretty as your Mama, as if she were carved out of jade.”
Little Qin Wen’s tiny mouth was pursed together. He immediately turned his head to look for Grandma. His eyes were full of tears. “Waaaa” he cried out ferociously. I don’t want it! I don’t want Daddy and Mama to have a second child!
If they dared to give birth to one, I will throw the little sister away secretly!
Lu Shaoming: “…”
…
In the hospital
Zhou Zhilei woke up from anesthesia, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Where was she?
Her line of vision was all white. There was the smell of disinfectant in her nose, and it was very jarring.
Was she in the hospital?
It was painful.
She felt her entire body hurt from head to toe, especially her right thigh. It was so painful that she felt numb.
There was no one in the hospital ward. She struggled as she sat up slowly.
She stretched out her hand to touch her right thigh, wanting to relieve the pain for a moment, but…why couldn’t she feel it at all?
She lifted the blankets and had a look. “Ah!” she screamed out loud.
The door of the hospital ward was pushed open, and Kong Lan ran inside.
“Zhilei, what is wrong with you? Don’t be afraid, Mummy is here. In the future, no one will dare to bully you anymore.” Kong Lan took Zhou Zhilei in her arms.
Zhou Zhilei was shivering. She held oton Kong Lan’s elbow with both hands, until her fingernails dug into Kong Lan’s flesh. Fearfully, she asked, “Mum, Mum, where is my leg? Where is my right leg? How come it is gone now? No, I don’t want to. I don’t want to be disabled…”
Kong Lan felt her arm hurt a lot, but she did not struggle. She looked at her daughter’s wild look right now, and she felt like her heart was cut with a knife. “Zhilei, your bone in your right thigh was broken after getting stepped on. Because there were a large amount of drugs injected into your body, it resulted in a viral infection. To protect your life, your right leg was amputated.”
Amputated?
“No!” Zhou Zhilei covered her ears, and her face was pale. She looked just like a crazy person, as she said, “They didn’t amputate my limbs, I still can walk, I can….”
Zhou Zhilei lifted the blankets up as she wanted to take two steps. Bang! Her entire body rolled onto the floor.
The hospital gown on her body was lifted up, and she looked at her own skin. Her skin that was once white and supple had turned wax yellow. There were still many scars from knives on it. Her skin was covered with blue black marks of trauma. They were the scars of being burnt with cigarettes. It looked extremely horrifying, and it was ugly and frightening at the same time.
“Ah!” She screamed out again, and she held herself tight.
“Zhilei, everything is all in the past. Everything is fine now. After you recuperate, Mum will send you to Korea for plastic surgery. We will do surgery for the entire body, and at that time, you would still be the most beautiful daughter in Mum’s eyes.”
“Mum!” Zhou Zhilei cried as she collapsed in Kong Lan’s embrace. “Mum, Tang Xueli is a pervert. He gifted me to all of his subordinates. You don’t know what I was going through every day. They came to torture me everyday. They handcuffed me and asked me to crawl on the floor. They even fed me drugs…”
Zhou Zhilei recalled what had happened, and she still shook in fear. That period of half a month was really her prison.
Kong Lan was very sad. “Zhilei, it is mum who is bad. You disappeared for half a month, so I sent someone to investigate. I was told that you were in England in charge of the red wine competition at that time. I wasn’t suspicious at that time. Thinking about it now, it must be that Tang Xueli was misleading me. But Zhilei, you don’t have to worry, Tang Xueli has already been shot down by Lu Shaoming.”
