Chapter 2264
Go Take a Shower
In the warm-colored bedroom, He Xinghua hugged Yuanyuan and walked out.
The chubby little girl squirmed in He Xinghua's arms, reaching out to He Yuzhu and shouting, "Daddy, save me!..."
Oh no, my brother! My brother's going to beat me up...
The little girl in He Yuzhu's arms kicked her smooth little feet against his stomach, and her little hands waved randomly, calling out softly "Oh...oh..." in the direction her older brother and sister had left.
Lou Xiao'e had been busy in front of the makeup mirror for quite some time.
The eldest daughter was having a lot of fun and had no barriers with He Yuzhu. They played together from the living room downstairs to the bedroom upstairs.
If Lou Xiao'e hadn't spoken up, she still wouldn't have gone to sleep.
Aside from occasionally teasing his little daughter, He Yuzhu was actually always deep in thought.
He wasn't sure what Lou Xiao'e was trying to prove to him by making such a serious deal out of this.
If it's just so the children can see him and the whole family can be together, it doesn't matter whether they go to Beijing or He Yuzhu goes to the small town in the south.
There's no need to make He Yuzhu wait in this mansion for two days.
"Honey, what do you think of this house?" Lou Xiao'e didn't turn around; she was doing her skincare routine in front of the mirror.
But if you look into her eyes, you can tell that she's not really focused on the nursing care.
She was peeking at He Yuzhu through the mirror.
“That’s great. This is a house that was left over from the Republic of China era, right?”
Even by today's standards, the interior design wouldn't be considered outdated.
"It just feels so empty." He Yuzhu pressed his cheek against his little daughter's, letting Wanwan's little hands scratch his face.
The little girl seemed to dislike him and was quite fierce towards him.
Fortunately, Lou Xiao'e had trimmed her fingernails very well; otherwise, He Yuzhu's face would have had several bloody marks.
It's already quite remarkable that a child who can't speak yet can be held in He Yuzhu's arms without crying.
He cared for the twins from birth until they could talk and walk, seeing them almost every day.
If you hold her for too long, she will cry and struggle to get back into Liu Ting's arms.
Both He Ping and He An liked to snuggle in Liu Ting's arms.
For He Yuzhu, a short hug is acceptable.
It won't work in the long run.
This situation will continue throughout the entire recognition period.
They usually cling to their mother and won't let anyone else hold or touch them.
Therefore, this is also the most arduous period for mothers.
It will get better after weaning.
Like how Wanwan could be held in He Yuzhu's arms for so long without crying.
It's probably because when she was at home, she was always cared for by nannies on rotation.
Only when you get used to unfamiliar faces will you be less resistant to He Yuzhu.
"There's nothing we can do, our family has such a large business."
It's not easy to entertain relatives and friends if you build a small house.
"It will be difficult to arrange nannies and drivers in the future." Lou Xiao'e paused for a moment, then chuckled and explained.
"What do you mean?" He Yuzhu asked in surprise.
Lou Xiao'e owns quite a few houses in mainland China, but they are all registered under her company's name.
She can have the local office tidy up whichever house she needs.
But today she actually mentioned that she wants to arrange a nanny and a driver; it seems she's planning to treat it like a home.
Lou Xiao'e suddenly turned around, and her fair skin was faintly visible under her light gauze nightgown.
Her little face puffed up like a steamed bun, and she glared at He Yuzhu with resentment in her beautiful eyes.
"Can't I even settle down in the mainland?" Lou Xiao'e said reproachfully, her words full of dissatisfaction.
He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said, "You mean, you're planning to settle down in Shanghai?"
"Hmm..." Lou Xiao'e replied sullenly.
He Yuzhu didn't quite understand. However, Lou Xiao'e stopped what she was doing and stared intently at him, which made He Yuzhu swallow hard before he understood her meaning.
Lou Xiao'e was referring to his home.
It wasn't the luxury homes she bought in various major cities, nor the houses she occasionally stayed in.
He Yuzhu shrank back slightly, his eyes darting around.
As a scumbag, he waited for the woman to make a decision.
He, however, was thinking of dodging.
How can he express this attitude?
Does this mean he'll live in Shanghai from now on and never go back to Beijing?
How should he appease Liu Ting?
"Tch... Look at your pathetic self!"
When you trembled back then, did you ever think about today? Married women just don't know how to be reserved.
To describe such a wonderful married life in such a vulgar way.
He Yuzhu blushed, a rare occurrence for him, but he said firmly, "This needs to be made clear. I haven't taken the initiative many times."
"You scoundrel!" Lou Xiao'e's beautiful eyes were filled with seductive charm.
……
"Are you really sure?" He Yuzhu asked again.
"Ugh……
I won't make a decision. Do you, sir, have a better plan?
"Let's build a three-courtyard house. You can live in the middle courtyard, and she and I can each take turns serving you in the front and back courtyards," Lou Xiao'e said with a hint of sarcasm.
He Yuzhu felt his nose was incredibly itchy.
Although He Daqing lived that kind of life.
But He Daqing's situation was very different from his.
Putting aside everything else, both of He Daqing's wives are protected by Hong Kong law.
What is his relationship with Lou Xiao'e?
Although in earlier years, Tanya Li had also used her connections with He Daqing to help him and Lou Xiao'e obtain a marriage certificate in Hong Kong.
But his and Lou Xiao'e's reputations were too great to withstand investigation.
In this respect, He Yuzhu owes Lou Xiao'e a debt.
Now, Lou Xiao'e has arranged for her to settle in Shanghai.
This means that she has taken another step back from Liu Ting.
It's obvious that by doing this, she was making a statement to Liu Ting that she definitely wouldn't settle down in Beijing in the future, thus pleasing Liu Ting.
Lou Xiao'e is now doing this for that scumbag.
They've already retreated again and again.
She just wanted He Yuzhu to give her a promise that she could treat this place as his second home.
What can He Yuzhu say?
He could only get up, hold the child, walk behind Lou Xiao'e, press himself against his wife's back, and whisper, "When I retire, we'll live on both sides."
Before you retire, please be magnanimous and bear with me a little more.
I can only come here when I have a spare moment..."
That's the answer from a scumbag.
"Sizzle..."
Do you really think you're some kind of treasure?
"If it weren't for my children, would I care where you live?" Lou Xiao'e's words were still tinged with resentment.
As a woman, she couldn't help but be angry.
Even though she clearly remembered that her relationship with He Yuzhu started because she took the initiative.
However, if a woman is too rational rather than emotional in matters of the heart...
Then her love for that man was no longer love.
He Yuzhu naturally had ways to deal with her. No matter how stubborn she was, if he used some thuggish tactics on her, Lou Xiao'e would have to back down.
Sure enough, after He Yuzhu's harassment...
Lou Xiao'e reached out and pinched him, saying with seductive eyes, "I'll put Wanwan to sleep first, then you go take a shower..." (End of Chapter)
