Chapter 124

Every day, Lan Xiaobao goes out at sunrise and returns at sunset, he is busier than the adult Li Xuyao.

Li Xuyao ​​could only watch helplessly as the wounds on his body grew more and more, and the little man became thinner and thinner. His heart ached, but he couldn't stop him.

He never thought that one day, he would recognize a son in such a situation.

I never thought that my son was walking the same old path he walked.

Even so, their moods seem to be different.

Even if Lan Xiaobao didn't say much when he came back every day, he always walked through the specific process in a few words.

He walked through those, how could he not know what those so-called trainings were all about.

The child doesn't want to speak, and as a father, he can't force him to speak.

However, going on like this is not an option after all.

It will take some days for the layout to be complete, and if the plan is changed, there will be mistakes.

There is only one chance, success or failure depends on one move, never lose!

He Ying found Li Xuyao ​​at Lan Xiaobao's house.

She walked in with a little thought, and said: "The main building sent someone to pass the message, saying that we will bring Xiaobao to attend today's dinner."

Li Xuyao's expression darkened.

He Ying sat down and poured herself a glass of water.

"Old Li, what does this mean? Why did you bring Xiaobao to the Li family's dinner party? These days, the little guy doesn't know what they took him to do. He always has injuries on his body and his mental state is not very good. I've lost a lot of weight... I'm afraid it will be too much to bear if I go on like this."

"He is my son." After a long silence in the room, Li Xuyao ​​said, "My dear."

He Ying was startled at first, and then a look of understanding.

She should have thought of it a long time ago, but it has not been confirmed, so she put aside this guess in her heart.

"Then Mr. Li knows about this relationship?"

Based on what he did during this period of time, if he said he didn't know, who would believe it?

"Yes." Li Xuyao ​​said, "He is undergoing training that no man in the Li family will go through."

At the end, his face became extremely gloomy.

He Ying opened her lips, wanting to comfort her, but she didn't say anything.

At times like these, all comfort pales in vain.

The best consolation is to be able to change the status quo as soon as possible, which is obviously not something a weak woman like her can do.

"Do you... have any arrangements, or, is there anything I can do?"

Li Xuyao: "Today's dinner will not be too peaceful. When the time comes, pay attention and don't let him be bullied."

No matter how smart that kid is, he is still a child, and there will be times when he doesn't think carefully. On such occasions, he needs someone to pay attention to him at all times.

Otherwise, it is easy to fall into the way of some people.

"I'll pay attention." He Ying said, "Then I'll find him a suitable suit. After I get back, I should have to take a shower."

Without waiting for Li Xuyao's reply, he walked to the closet.

Turned over to a small black suit, the design of the pockets is very childlike, with rabbit ears, it just makes the dark and boring clothes a little more childlike.

She held it in her hand and asked, "How about this one? I remember that you also have a dress of this style. Then, why don't you wear a parent-child outfit?"

Li Xuyao ​​frowned, neither saying yes nor bad.

Seeing this, He Ying hung up the clothes again, looked through them a few times, and felt that the one she took just now was the most suitable for such an occasion.

After all, it was the first time he appeared as the young master of the Li family, so he had to tidy up no matter what.

In the evening, Lan Xiaobao was sent back early.

Li Xuyao ​​still had a lukewarm attitude in front of outsiders, but when he returned to the house, he put away his cold face.

"The butler grandpa said that there is a dinner party today, and I want to go with you. What kind of dinner party is it?" Lan Xiaobao came out of the shower and looked at him with big watery eyes.

Li Xuyao ​​stroked his wet hair, and said softly, "It's a weekly dinner, but today, it might be different."

"Why is it different?" Lan Xiaobao asked curiously.

Li Xuyao ​​took the hair dryer and dried his hair.

Without getting an answer, Lan Xiaobao thought about it again and again, and then asked, "Is it because of me?"

"Hmm." Li Xuyao ​​paused the blowing, looked at him and asked, "Are you scared?"

"Why are you afraid?" Lan Xiaobao asked.

Li Xuyao: "Once you admit your identity in public, your situation may be more dangerous than it is now, and it will be even more difficult to leave this place."

"Isn't it easier to take revenge?" Lan Xiaobao blinked and said, "Mom once said that everything has two sides. Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and there may be a bad side, but we can look at it from another angle." Say, isn't there a good side too?

"Think about it, I couldn't do anything to Li Mingxuan before, because they were the young masters of the Li family, and I couldn't fight against them. Will want me to die, after all, I am the only boy of the current grandchildren, the eldest grandson, right?

"In this case, if Li Mingxuan and the others still want to do something, do they have to weigh it up? Besides, I also heard that the heir of a big family like this, now I am the only grandchildren, Mr. Li won't think anything happened to me, he will definitely To be watched. And that way, other people's movements are limited, which is good for you, right?
"Those people can only use some innocuous tricks at best, and you can't lose your life. As long as what I care about is fine, I don't care about the others. So, I'm not afraid of what I'm about to face, you You don’t need to treat me like a porcelain doll, I can protect myself.”

Li Xuyao ​​was speechless, and for a while, his mood was complicated.

The more we get along, the more we understand, the more distressed we are.

At an age when others were still looking for their parents for everything and complaining to them, he had already become a little man, holding up half the sky for her.

Too smart, too transparent, and even too sensible.

"Your current situation may not be hidden from your mother for too long. You should know her."

Take it easy, he said.

Lan Xiaobao frowned slightly: "I know... But, if I let her know what I do every day, I'm afraid she will break in directly. Wouldn't it be a big trouble? If one accidentally knocks We've just met, but what should we do?"

This is also a problem that gives him a headache.

On the one hand, he felt that he shouldn't hide it from her, and on the other hand, he didn't want her to worry too much.

But if he knew the real situation, how could he not be worried?

"Dad, what do you think should be done?"

Li Xuyao ​​patted his head: "It's not a good idea to keep it a secret, so tell her, she won't act impulsively."

"..."

Lan Xiaobao pondered for a long time, then nodded: "Okay."

Only then did Li Xuyao ​​start blowing his hair again.

After a while, the sound of the hair dryer stopped abruptly, and needles could be heard in the room instantly.

"What am I wearing today?" Lan Xiaobao stood in front of Li Xuyao ​​and asked him.

In his understanding, he would have to dress up for any banquet.

"Yeah." Li Xuyao ​​nodded, led him to stand in front of the big wardrobe, opened all the doors, and said, "See if there are any you like. If not, I'll send another batch over."

"..." Lan Xiaobao was stunned for a while before recovering her voice, "Shouldn't you choose for me? My mother used to choose for me at home, and she would match it well for any occasion. .”

Li Xuyao: "..."

He's really not very good at this.

His clothes are almost all of those styles, suitable for any occasion, and he has never had these troubles.

Looking at this large wardrobe full of colorful little clothes at this moment, he felt a little dizzy, and even a little overwhelmed.

Lan Xiaobao saw through his embarrassment, and sighed helplessly like a little adult: "Hey... this family really cannot live without a mother."

He took a step forward, his big eyes flicked over all kinds of clothes, quite dazzled.

"..." The corners of Li Xuyao's mouth twitched slightly.

So, he was rejected?
It was the first time in his life that he was disgusted by someone. If it was this little guy, it seemed like a good feeling.

Lan Xiaobao, who had no idea what the person behind him was thinking, was all focused on choosing clothes.

I took one off and looked at it, then put it back.

He took off another one, looked at it again, and put it back.

After several times in a row, he raised the clothes in his hand and asked Li Xuyao, "How about this one?"

Looking at the somewhat familiar clothes in his hand, Li Xuyao ​​suddenly realized.

Isn't this what He Ying said just now?

His eyes flickered: "You can try it, it's still early, if you don't like it, just change it."

Lan Xiaobao also had this intention in the first place, but after hearing what he said, he didn't hesitate.

After the upper body, stand in front of the fitting mirror on the side.

What was reflected in the mirror was a noble young master with red lips and white teeth, skin that could be easily broken, and a small face that was as delicate as a doll.

Li Xuyao ​​looked at it and thought it was not bad.

Lan Xiaobao turned around and looked at the person behind him: "How is it?"

Li Xuyao: "It's beautiful."

Lan Xiaobao nodded: "I think it looks good too, so this is it."

After tidying up the little guy, Li Xuyao ​​went back to his room.

When I was changing clothes, I suddenly thought of He Ying's words - "I remember that you also have a dress of this style. When the time comes, why don't you wear a parent-child outfit?"

He pursed his thin lips and searched among the almost uniform clothes.

Finally, in a corner, I found the dress.

He looked at it and felt that it was no different from the previous style, so he changed it.

After a simple haircut, he walked out of the room.

At the same time, the door of the little guy's room opened.

The two appeared from two rooms respectively, standing in the corridor inside the house.

Lan Xiaobao turned his head to take a look, then his eyes lit up, he looked left and right, walked over with small steps, stood beside him, and whispered, "Dad, your clothes are the same as mine. Right? It’s just that some small decorations are different, so are we doing it ourselves?”

Li Xuyao ​​was slightly taken aback.

He looked at what was on himself, and then at what was on the little guy.

After several comparisons, he didn't see anything the same. He didn't know how to let people see that it was a parent-child outfit?

Lan Xiaobao seemed to understand his doubts, and pulled him into her room, and the two stood in front of the fitting mirror at the same time.

One big and one small, the similar clothes are all black, and a discerning person can see some clues at a glance.

It's just that the one on the little guy, because it's worn by a child, has added some childishness to some parts of the clothes, but the rest are very similar.

Li Xuyao ​​patted the little guy's head, with a slight smile on his lips, and asked, "Do you like it?"

Lan Xiaobao nodded decisively: "I like it."

He thought for a while, and then said: "In the future, let's buy the family ones and let Mommy wear them too. It must be a beautiful scenery when going out like this."

Li Xuyao ​​laughed: "It's okay to wear it at home, but it's unrealistic to go out. You forgot, your mommy is an actress, and she will become a big star in the future. If you go out like this, won't those paparazzi be photographed , to the detriment of her career."

The little guy came to his senses suddenly, and felt that it was not good enough, so he settled for the next best thing, and said, "Then wear it at home, and we can enjoy it by ourselves."

Mommy likes acting so much, but she can't cause trouble for her because of herself.

"Xiaobao, are you ready? We are leaving."

Hearing the knock on the door and the sound from outside, the father and son looked at each other, and they both saw confidence in each other's eyes.

"Let's go." Li Xuyao ​​patted his head.

When the two appeared outside at the same time, He Ying was surprised, and then said with a smile: "I guessed that you might wear this outfit, but I didn't expect you to actually wear it."

She took a closer look and said appreciatively, "It's very beautiful."

As he said that, he was going to hold the little guy's hand.

Lan Xiaobao was about to break free from Li Xuyao ​​and go to her side.

Usually outside, the father and son did not show any intimacy. Most of the time, Aunt He took him with him, and he was used to it.

Today, Li Xuyao ​​did not let go, but tightened his hand a little, and said lightly, "Today, I'm holding you."

"But--"

"After today, no matter what our relationship is, there is an indelible relationship in the eyes of outsiders. There is no need to deliberately act. Besides, I value you, and I will let those people weigh it, so as not to do things that make people Disgusting things come."

Li Xuyao ​​explained softly.

Hearing this, Lan Xiaobao's eyes lit up: "That is to say, we don't need to deliberately keep our distance outside in the future?"

"But don't be too intimate." Li Xuyao ​​said with a smile, "Probably because I accepted your son, I don't have much affection for a while. It's okay to hold you outside like this, but we can't Acting too happy."

In short, accepting, but not fully accepting, gives people a feeling of elusiveness.

Lan Xiaobao is so clever, he only needs to dial a little bit to understand.

He raised his other hand and made an ok gesture to show that he understood.
