Chapter 231

A smile appeared on Xicheng's lips, and his long arms wrapped around the slender waist of the little woman in front of him.The woman in his arms was so thin, and the sphenoid bone on the back protruded abnormally obviously. Deep pity rose in his heart, and he hugged the woman tightly. He lowered his head and put his face on her head. The fragrance filled the nostrils.

Lowering his head, he placed a light kiss on her lips, and he curled the corners of his mouth, "Go and wash." As he said this, he let go of his hand, and the little woman in his arms jumped and ran He went out and ran to the bathroom in his slippers. Hearing the sound of procrastinating walking, the smile on his lips became stronger, and he shook his head with a slight smile. The pampering was self-evident.

Standing in the mirror in the bathroom, Mo Xuan looked at her face, and suddenly felt that everything was so unreal.Everything in the past was vivid in her mind, she stretched out her hand and put it on her belly, the little life she had never had the chance to see, the life she had been looking forward to, and the right to be a mother that she could no longer have.

My heart tightened for no reason, and I was so suffocated that I couldn't breathe.Yes, I can no longer have it.Those hatreds that were clamoring in my heart every day, what I thought was unforgivable, and the attachment to this kind of life, struggled in my heart, and my heart seemed to be torn apart.

It's just that if you forgive, you will be happier, right?She thought in a daze.After so much, she has become weak. Such a simple life is like a life-saving straw for her. Once she grabs it, she can't let go.

She pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Hey, let's forgive him, shall we?" The extremely low voice was like talking in a dream.

At this moment, Xicheng was standing outside the bathroom.Seeing that she hadn't come out, he wanted to come over to see what was wrong with her, but what he heard was such a cautious, helpless, panicked voice.With a kind of daze that doesn't know what to do.He felt a slight pain in his heart, and his feet seemed to be filled with lead, and he could no longer lift them up.

Let's forgive him, shall we?Such a bewildered voice.Xicheng only felt that even he couldn't forgive everything in the past, he couldn't forgive himself.He closed his eyes slightly, lowered his pupils, his heart seemed to be grasped fiercely, so tight that even breathing became difficult.

After a long while, he stood outside the door and raised his voice, "Are you ready?" Then he started to walk inside.The little woman standing in front of the mirror had already turned her head, with a smile on her face, "Okay." Turning her face away, she took up water and washed her face again, before she walked over and held Gu Xicheng's hand. Hand, "I went to eat. I'm starving to death."

Delicate appearance.But it made Xicheng feel more distressed.For her pretending to be strong, and for the injuries she has suffered.He folded his palms and wrapped her hands in his broad palms.

Breakfast is actually very simple, a cup of hot milk, bread, and her favorite porridge with preserved egg and lean meat.Mo Xuan grinned, sat down on the chair, took a sip of the porridge with a spoon, then looked up at Xicheng opposite, "I didn't even know you could cook."

"When I was studying abroad, I cooked by myself." He said with a smile, his face as quiet and gentle as water.

Is it?Mo Xuan blinked her eyes, then lowered her head and continued to drink the porridge in the bowl with a satisfied look on her face.It seems that such a contented expression appears most often on her face, she can even be satisfied with a word, a scenery, or an expression.Her happiness seems to be all smiling things.

After a while, she raised her head and looked at Xicheng in front of her. She wrinkled her nose and said with an ugly expression, "I don't know anything about you." With a gloomy look on her face, it was Jean who was sitting opposite him. The smile on the corners of Xicheng's lips couldn't help but get bigger, and his mood got better for no reason. He stretched out his hand and pinched her nose with a doting look, "In the future, there will be plenty of time..." After a pause, the expression in his eyes A hint of slyness flashed across, "Hmm...understand deeply."

Mo Xuan was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head, and let out a "hum hum" sound from her throat, looking dissatisfied.Swallowing the porridge, the appearance even made Xicheng think that she had been hungry for a long time.

Generally, women pay great attention to their sitting posture in front of men and eat their faces. She is good, with a carefree look. When talking to others, her whole face becomes vivid, and sometimes she even holds her stomach and keeps laughing. , while shouting stomach ache.It's just that this kind of her makes people feel more real.

A bowl of porridge was quickly disposed of.She picked up a napkin on one side and wiped her lips, "It's delicious. You will be in charge of breakfast in the future. I like preserved egg and lean meat porridge the most, but I can't cook it well no matter what I do."

Looking at her appearance, Xi Cheng suddenly felt that this was the so-called happiness.With the person I love, when I wake up in the morning, I can see her by my side, I can kiss her forehead when I lower my head, make a breakfast for her, watch her gobble up and be satisfied, and accompany her. Sitting with her in a well-lit restaurant, is this happiness?
"As long as I can cook it well." He chuckled, and suddenly wanted to kiss her beautiful lips, "Are you full? Do you want some more?"

The little woman on the opposite side was completely blunt, "Yes." The answer was crisp, with a smile on her face, and even a sly light in her eyes, "Hey, do I have a bigger appetite? Huh?" Seeing that Xicheng didn't answer herself, she still said to herself: "When I was in school, I was the one who ate the most in our dormitory, but I was also the thinnest, so I'm so jealous of a group of people." She looked proud , Even the smile is so beautiful.

Xicheng smiled slightly, handed the bowl to her, and squeezed her delicate skin, "It's thin. It doesn't matter if you eat more." Meeting Mo Xuan's proud smile, he sipped her thin cheeks. lips, "Otherwise, it won't feel good." In a serious tone.

The little woman on the opposite side became shy, pretending to stare at him fiercely, but there was no lethality in her eyes, but in Xi Cheng's eyes, she had a different style.

After breakfast, Mo Xuan was about to clean up the dishes, but there was a faint, inaudible voice above her head, "Change your clothes first." As she said this, a hand much bigger than herself He had already taken the plate she was about to take, "Ming Jue will come later, it's not good to see you like this." A voice full of smiles.

Mo Xuan met his ambiguous gaze, then turned around, showing that I looked down on you, then turned around and ran to the bedroom. Behind her, Gu Xicheng looked at her small figure, with the corners of her lips The smile is warm.

The sunlight fell on the huge room, covering everything with a warm halo.

************************************************** *************************************
When Mo Xuan walked out of the bedroom, Ming Jue was already sitting on the sofa in the living room. He looked at the layout of the room and smiled meaningfully, "Hey, the layout of this room couldn't have been done by you, could it?"

Xicheng leaned towards the back of the sofa, looked at Ming Jue with disdainful eyes, "So/what?" Condescending, indifferent.Ming Jue was so blocked that he couldn't say a word.He shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be convinced, "Nothing."

When he said this, he turned his face to look at Mo Xuan who was walking over, and said in a joking tone: "I used to think that Young Master Gu was a god who didn't eat the fireworks of the world. It's my sister-in-law who is so powerful that she let such a god fall willingly." Entering someone's house and becoming a mortal, the modern version of Seven Fairies and Dong Yong, this is."

Mo Xuan was slightly taken aback, then laughed, "Who do you think is Dong Yong? I'm a woman, woman, okay?" When her eyes touched the woman sitting next to Ming Jue, her eyes froze slightly, even The smile on his face froze.

The woman with small but bright eyes and two dimples when she smiles is clearly Xiaoqi.

Xicheng stretched out his hand and pulled her to his side, embracing her in his arms.Ming Jue, who was sitting opposite them, laughed, "This is my bride-to-be, Zhou Xiaoqi. Do you know her?"

Putting away the astonishment on her face, Mo Xuan also laughed, but she couldn't help feeling in her heart that many, many things seemed to have happened during the six months she was away. "Well, to be honest, I was intimidated. However, I still wish you a happy wedding." She said with the corners of her mouth curled up.

But Xiaoqi couldn't stay idle, "Hey, Sister Lara, how about we have a four-person wedding? You and Gu Xicheng, me and Mingjue, how wonderful." She looked expectant.

Before Mo Xuan could speak, Xi Cheng beside her had already pursed her lips, and said with a smile on the corner of her lips: "Then you will be at a disadvantage. The guests will directly ignore you as the bride."

"Hey. Gu Xicheng, I don't want you to praise your wife like that." Hearing Xicheng's explanation, he was absolutely dissatisfied. He raised his chin, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, even his eyes were full of smiles. At the same time, he stretched out his arms to embrace Xiaoqi who was sitting beside him.

Xicheng just smiled lightly, and said in a clear voice, "I'm just telling the truth." He looked calm, as if what he said was the truth.Mo Xuan slightly turned her face to the side, looking at his calm and smiling side face, suddenly felt as if a warm current flowed through her heart, and it warmed up all of a sudden.

Ming Jue turned his head to look at Mo Xuan, "Then I have to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to remarry quickly. I won't have a long night dream, right?"

"Then let's go." Xicheng glanced at Mo Xuan who was beside her, wearing shorts and a T-shirt, simple and elegant, with curly hair tied up, looking neat and tidy.

As he spoke, he held Mo Xuan's hand and was about to stand up, but Mo Xuan reflexively said again: "Huh?" with a puzzled look.Meeting her surprised eyes, the smile on Xicheng's lips grew stronger, "Go to the Civil Affairs Bureau." Those four simple words came in a warm and clear voice.It made my heart suddenly warm up.

Hearing what he said, Ming Jue also took Xiaoqi's hand and stood up.The two cheerfully looked at a man and a woman opposite, one calm and the other surprised. "Sister Lara, has he proposed? If he doesn't propose, he won't go. Let him frustrate first." With a sly look on his face.

Hearing what she said, Mo Xuan's face turned slightly red, and she turned her face away, humming, "He is a Seventh Fairy, I don't know what a marriage proposal is." For no reason, she suddenly remembered three and a half years ago, On the eve of the wedding, the promise he made: never leave, never give up.

Ming Jue and Xiao Qi couldn't help laughing when they heard what she said, but Xi Cheng didn't seem to care, the corner of his lips smiled indifferently, he turned his head slightly, looked at her in a daze, "Are you angry?" a gentle voice , with a hint of pampering, a hint of tenderness.

But Mo Xuan stopped talking and let Xicheng hold her hand, and followed them out, but when she was about to get in the car, Xiaoqi suddenly asked: "Have you brought your ID? Don't run away for nothing!" Come on."

Hearing what she said, Mo Xuan was slightly stunned, as if she didn't bring it.Straight out the door.But before she could open her mouth, Gu Xicheng who was beside her had already pursed her lips, and uttered two words, "Bring it."

Forehead?Bring it?Mo Xuan was startled, but Xicheng had already opened the car door and waited for her to get in. She lowered her head slightly, got into the car, sat on the passenger seat, and watched Gu Xicheng get into the car in a leisurely manner. She said, "I haven't agreed to marry you yet." Such an appearance of being convinced by her really made her very unhappy, even though she was still slightly happy in her heart.

"I'm afraid of long nights and many dreams." The warm breath rushed into her ears along with Xicheng's gentle words.She shook her head and looked sideways at his beautiful face. This time, he was still wearing a white shirt with the cuffs rolled up habitually, sitting casually, with his slender fingers resting on the steering wheel, so elegant, It really gives people a feeling of otherworldly fireworks.

"But you haven't proposed to me yet." Mo Xuan turned her face away and said in a muffled voice.

Looking sideways at her appearance, the smile on Xicheng's lips became stronger. His knuckle fingers took out an exquisite jewelry box from his pocket, looked at Mo Xuan with gentle eyes, and opened the box with a smile. The workmanship is exquisite. The ring came into view.

It is a ring that is so familiar that it can no longer be familiar.I once wore a wedding ring for three years.

"I want to take care of you all the time, can you give me a chance?" With a gentle voice, Mo Xuan looked sideways at Xi Cheng's sincere expression at this time, and the pampering and anticipation in her eyes, "Would you like to marry Me?" He pursed his lips and said in a deep voice.

Mo Xuan was slightly stunned, then the corners of her lips raised slightly, her eyes showed a sly look, "Eh, let me think about it." She answered involuntarily, pretending to be calm.Xicheng smiled slightly, lowered his head and planted a kiss on her cheek, "Okay. I'll give you three seconds to think about it."

"One, two, three..." As soon as he finished counting, he heard Mo Xuan's dissatisfied voice, "I won't bring you like this."

He looked sideways at the dissatisfied look of the little woman beside him, his eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his lips curved into a nice arc, he grabbed that little hand, put the ring on for her, looked at the delicate ring on the ring finger, His heart suddenly settled down, he lowered his head, kissed those beautiful lips gently, and stuck his long tongue into her mouth, gentle and domineering, extremely lingering, as if he wanted to take all her fragrance and beauty.

After a while, Xicheng let her go, started the car, looked sideways at Mo Xuan, "I was going to buy a new one, but I think you might like this one better." His voice was low and gentle.

Mo Xuan smiled slightly, caressing the familiar ring on her ring finger with a dazed expression, "Yeah. I still like this." The voice was not high, but low, as if speaking to Gu Xicheng, or to herself generally.

Seeing what she said, Xicheng felt that his heart had just fallen steadily, unlike before, which had been hanging all the time, an unreal feeling. "Do you want to hold another wedding with Ming Jue and the others? Or another one?"

wedding?Mo Xuan shook her head and shook her head. Her movements were small, but she was firm, "I don't want a wedding. Just make me a honeymoon. You owe me." When it came to the last sentence, she had already set her heart. A confident expression.

"Okay. I'll listen to you." The elongated tone was full of pampering. When he said this, he stretched out his hand to hold that small hand, interlocking his fingers, and clenched it bit by bit. . "In the future, you will not be allowed to escape again." He suddenly said in a low voice, as if thinking about the difficulty of finding her for the past six months.

When Mo Xuan heard this, she was slightly stunned, and then chuckled, "You are not allowed to run away, or you will be fined to kneel on the washboard." When she said this, she raised her chin with a look of smugness. appearance.

When he heard these words, Xicheng suddenly thought, he doesn't want to leave anymore, he would rather be trapped by her side for life, as long as he can see her as soon as he opens his eyes, it is already a great happiness for him.Such hypocritical thoughts were the true thoughts in my heart at that moment.Perhaps, those who have walked through the gate of hell know better what is most important to them.

It wasn't until she got out of the Civil Affairs Bureau that Mo Xuan felt that when she came to the city, everything was prepared, and nothing was missing.After walking out of the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Mo Xuan just turned her face, "You planned it beforehand."

"Yeah." Xicheng didn't deny it, but nodded calmly.Such a calm and breezy appearance makes one's teeth itch.

Mo Xuan looked at his calm side face, and her whole face was wrinkled, "No wonder Ming Jue said you were gentle."

Gentle cut.Xicheng was stunned for a moment, and then met her sly eyes, "Mingjue said it." The smile on the corner of his lips was warm, and he was in a trance for a while, then lowered his head and kissed her beautiful lips.

*
When watching Xiaoqi in the shop enthusiastically trying on one set of dresses after another, Mo Xuan thought of the past in a trance.I was so happy to become Gu Xicheng's bride, and my heart was full of anticipation.At that time, I was so excited that I couldn't even sleep well.

Her fingers touched the cell phone in her pocket, she frowned, found Ji Yan's number, and edited the text message word by word, "I'm remarried with Gu Xicheng. I'm in Jiangcheng now, and I'll be back in City A in two days. "But she didn't know what to say. She put down her phone and looked at the evening dress that Xiaoqi was trying on. It showed a snow-white back. It was cut to fit and set off the beautiful curves of her body. The lower abdomen was found to be slightly protruding.

But suddenly I heard Ming say to Xiaoqi, "Let's wear flat shoes on the wedding day." The voices of the two were not high-pitched, and they couldn't hear clearly from a distance, but Xiaoqi seemed to agree in the end, vaguely Yes, she seemed to hear "children" appearing in the mouths of the two people several times.

This word seemed to be a taboo for her, once it was mentioned, it would be heart-wrenchingly sad.

Lowering her head, she looked at the unsent message. After a long while, she frowned and added, "Do you have time? Let's meet up." For the past six months, Jiyan and Jiyan haven't been in frequent contact. , Now I suddenly don't know what to say.

After hesitating for a long time, she pressed send. Looking at the message on the phone that the message was successfully sent, she lowered her head and put the phone back into her pocket.

Gu Xicheng on the side came over, handed her a glass of water, looked at her uneasy look, and asked softly: "What's wrong?" Mo Xuan just shook her head, resting her head on Xicheng's shoulder, With a long sigh, "Hey. Why do I suddenly feel that I am old?"

As soon as the words fell, Xi Cheng's finger touched her forehead, "I'm old. You see, I'm all old, and I'm the only one willing to want you." He raised his head and met his smiling eyes , Such a gentle old city always made her feel that the beauty was unreal.

"Who said that?" She raised her chin and deliberately put on a proud gesture, "I'm a hot commodity." At this moment, her delicate face became more vivid, and the strong pride and slyness in her eyes fell into Xicheng's eyes , have become the most beautiful scenery.

The phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated, and over there, Xiaoqi suddenly raised her voice and said to them: "Hey, don't be petty. Lara, come and try the dress that Gu Xicheng made for you." Seeing that Mo Xuan didn't move , she stomped her feet, "Hurry up, hurry up."

Xicheng patted her lightly, his voice was as gentle as the gentlest spring breeze, "Go ahead. Let me have a look after wearing it." He squeezed her waist while talking, "Look at how thinner you are than before. Still fat."

After Mo Xuan walked over, Xiao Qi said in a low voice: "Why do I feel that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry." Mo Xuan looked at her, smiled slyly, "You just know? "

Behind him, Ming Jue walked over, sat down beside Gu Xicheng, looked at the two people who had disappeared into the fitting room, and leaned heavily back, "You two, you two are finally watching the moonlight when the clouds open! .”

Xicheng held the water glass, took a sip, and then put the glass on the glass table in front, "It's not as good as you. Double happiness is coming." The faint voice seemed to be blocked in his heart, jealousy and guilt , and distressed, intricate emotions completely occupied him in such an instant.

Speaking of Double Happiness, Ming Jue smiled more, "If it wasn't because she had my child, maybe my mother wouldn't have agreed to such a marriage so easily."

During those days when I was in the hospital, Xiaoqi and Ming Jue were all by my side. Later, when I returned home, Ming Jue brought Xiaoqi back together and found a job and a place for her.After returning to China, Xicheng didn't go out very often, and mostly stayed in Gu Zhai, ordering people to renovate the house where she and Mo Xuan lived together according to her favorite style.

Last month, Mingjue suddenly mentioned to his family that he wanted to marry Xiaoqi. At that time, Xicheng was also taken aback by the sudden news. No matter how you look at it, she felt that she once liked Nangong Jiyan. When he got the news, he even worried that Mo Xuan would do the same, fall in love with other men, get married and have children.I was so worried that even in my dreams, I would dream of holding another man's hand and walking towards me with a smile.Then he woke up in the night sweating.

When Ming Jue first proposed to marry Xiaoqi, the Ming family strongly opposed it. Ming Jue's mother even came to the Gu family and asked Xicheng to persuade Ming not to be so stupid. You want a woman with no family background, and a woman with no looks.That day, Ming Jue's mother was sitting across from Xicheng, drinking tea gracefully, but her eyes were full of dissatisfaction with Ming Jue, "Aren't you a living example? He didn't learn a lesson at all, I still want to marry that girl."

At that time, Xicheng's originally gentle expression suddenly withdrew, and his face was completely silent.

Ming Jue's mother said to herself, "Look at Mo Yigang, although he did well in the officialdom later, but after all, he came from a humble background, and the daughter he educated couldn't stand on the stage, and he usually dressed like a poor student, I don't know You still think that the Gu family can't even afford to support a young mistress. You and that girl Mo Xuan divorced, and I agree with both hands. You are someone who has experienced it, so I went to persuade Mingjue."

Listening to the lady's words, the expression on Xicheng's face became colder and colder, so cold that the surrounding air seemed to be frozen into ice.Mrs. Ming also felt that something was wrong, she put down the cup and put away her thoughts, only then did she see the cold expression on Xicheng's face, and she couldn't help shivering.

"Hasn't Ming learned his lesson?" He pursed his lips and said lightly, his eyes were dark, and he couldn't see his likes and dislikes, which only made people feel more and more uncertain, "However, I think I have to remind you." When he said this, he leaned back, clasped his fingers, and looked at the woman in front of him quietly, "If you say something wrong with Mo Xuan, all the cooperation between Gu and your Ming family will terminate."

The faint voice was so cold that it made one's heart chill.Look at the world with contempt.Sitting there, he looked like a king.

Perhaps it was because of the conversation with Xicheng that time, and not long after, Xiaoqi suddenly found out that she was pregnant. Perhaps it was even more difficult for Xiaoqi to enter Ming's house.
