Chapter 22 I Can't Sleep Without Your Arms

"Mom, please take care of her for me. I'll be back as soon as I finish handling the matter."

"Lu Jianshen, please make it clear to me that Nanxi is your wife. I order you to give it to me immediately..."

Before Yun Shu finished speaking, Lu Jianshen hung up.

"This bastard, let's see how I deal with him when I come back."

Nan Xi's fingers were almost dug into her flesh, but she didn't seem to feel any pain.

She was indeed the one who was given up.

Between her and Fang Qinglian, he seemed to have made his choice without even thinking about it.

Fool, you are delusional.

You should have known the answer a long time ago, why should you hope for it once and then let yourself down again?

Seeing that Nan Xi was obviously depressed, Yun Shu held her hand and said, "When he comes back, Mom will teach him a lesson to vent his anger on you. Don't think about anything now and have a good rest up there."

"good."

At this time, the knock on the door rang again.

Nan Xi quickly said: "Mom, don't worry, I'm fine here. Just lie down and rest for a while. There are many guests waiting for you outside, so go quickly."

"Okay, then I'll go down first. If you need anything, please send someone to tell me."

"Yeah." Nan Xi nodded obediently.

After Yun Shu left, Nanxi asked all the people serving in the room to go out.

The huge room immediately became empty, and even the air seemed to have become colder.

Yes, it's very cold.

Nan Xi hugged herself tightly, put her head on her knees, and stared blankly ahead.

She didn't know what she was looking at, but she felt her heart was blocked and she wanted to cry.

It really made her cry, but she couldn't cry.

It was obviously a sunny and warm day, but for some reason, she felt extra cold.

She took off her coat, huddled herself under the quilt, and rolled up the quilt tightly, pressing it tightly.

But Nanxi still felt drafty, and her body was still shivering with cold.

She had never been in good health. She suffered from severe colds and her hands and feet were cold all year round.

In the cold winter, even if the heating is on in the room, her hands and feet may be ice cold.

When it was cold in the past, she always liked to get closer to Lu Jianshen. Although she didn't dare to get into his arms, she still dared to get closer.

Miraculously, every time she was close to him, she felt her body warm up and could have a good sleep.

Today, she had been lying in the quilt for half an hour, but she still looked at the ceiling and the chandelier above her head with her eyes open, not feeling sleepy at all.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Lu Jianshen's phone number.

When Nan Xi saw the word "husband" on the screen, she suddenly couldn't control the tears she had been holding back, and they fell without warning with a ticking sound.

It turned out that she was not in pain.

It's not that I'm not sad or sad.

But she endured it with all her strength, telling herself desperately that she couldn't cry, she must not cry.

And his name was like a switch, instantly turning on the button of her tears.

So the tears were no longer under control, dripping down crazily and hitting the screen of the phone.

catch?

Still not answering?

she does not know.

Then his fingers were no longer controlled by his heart and he pressed the "answer" button first.

Nan Xi put the phone close to her ear, and soon a familiar voice came from there: "Have you asked the doctor to see you? How do you feel now?"

"Well, I saw it."

She lied.

"Take a good rest and sleep up there. I'll be back soon."

"Okay." Nanxi nodded.

There was silence on the phone.

At this moment, Fang Qinglian's voice suddenly came in, with obvious coquettishness: "Jian Shen, I want to eat grapes, can you peel them for me?"

"Well, you lie down and I'll peel it off for you."

After Lu Jianshen answered, he called back to the phone: "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

Originally, she should have gently replied "No" to him as she had done countless times before, then smiled and hung up the phone gracefully.

But I don’t know what happened today?

She grabbed her cell phone and shouted with some urgency: "I have something to do."

"I'm so cold. I covered myself with a lot of quilts. I used to feel warm when I held you in my arms, but today I can't feel warm at all. I can't sleep without you by my side."

After Nan Xi finished speaking, the place became quiet instantly.

On the phone, even their breathing became extremely clear.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

For ten seconds, Nanxi didn't hear his answer.

Her words must have put him in a difficult position.

Her bright eyes finally dimmed after a long wait, and she lost like a clown and was in a miserable state.

"Sorry, I hung up."

After saying that, Nan Xi hung up the phone almost like a deserter.

After hanging up the phone, Nanxi regretted it.

Idiot, what were you doing just now? Just like a beloved concubine vying for the emperor's favor.

It's really crazy. She was naked and unabashedly arguing with Fang Qinglian on the phone.

Nanxi, you are really becoming more and more useless.

After lying on the bed for a while, Nan Xi still didn't fall asleep. At this time, Sister-in-law Zhou came up: "Young madam, the madam said that the banquet will be held soon. How is your health now? You were eating at the banquet with the old man.

Why don't we bring it to the room to eat?"

Nanxi gave the answer almost without thinking: "I will go to the banquet to eat with grandpa."

Grandpa's eightieth birthday is so grand, she must not spoil his interest.

"Sister-in-law Zhou, please wait for me while I wash my face and fix my hair."

"Okay, young lady, don't be in a hurry, I'll wait for you outside."

After tidying up her clothes and hair accessories, Nan Xi was about to go down with Sister-in-law Zhou when something suddenly occurred to her. She immediately asked: "Sister-in-law Zhou, where is Jian Shen? Is he back?"

"not yet."

Noon was the main meal of the banquet. If his grandson didn't come back, there would be a lot of gossip.

Even if everyone doesn't say anything in front of the Lu family, they will definitely make irresponsible remarks after going out.

Moreover, if grandpa knew that Fang Qinglian was back and Jianshen delayed the banquet just to meet Fang Qinglian, he would definitely be furious.

If grandpa really gets angry, she may not be able to persuade him when the time comes.

After thinking about it, Nanxi called to Sister-in-law Zhou: "Let's wait a little longer. I'll go when he comes back."

"Young Madam, if this happens, if the banquet starts late, everyone will say that you are ignorant and have lost your sense of proportion. You have helped the young master to block all these bad things, and you have good intentions."

Mrs. Zhou looked at her with distressed eyes.

Such a good young lady, why doesn’t the young master cherish her well?

It's the same with Madam and Master. If a wife as excellent as Madam can't live a good life, she has to find other vixens outside.

She said it was better for the old man and the old lady. They had always been in love with each other since they got married. The couple had a deep love for each other and had never had a quarrel. The old man would let the old lady do anything.

So even though the old lady passed away for so long, the old lady never married again. He always loved the old lady deeply and only had her as his wife.

This wait lasted for more than ten minutes.

Nanxi called Lu Jianshen several times in succession.

However, she never dreamed that Fang Qinglian answered the last call.

what happened?

Isn't he already on his way back?

Why was Fang Qinglian the one who answered the call?
