Chapter 720 Husband
When she saw Ou Luoxi, Xia's mother's face suddenly changed, not so good.
"Mom." Xia Xiaofu interrupted the two people's gaze.
Xia's mother reluctantly retracted her gaze. After all, she was an intellectual, and some things were not convenient to say on the table. Xia's mother looked at Xia Xiaofu, "Xiaofu, we have to move out now, because your father owes a lot of debts, so our house was seized by the bank, and we need to find another place."
Move out.
Where to move?
Xia Xiaofu's eyes lit up and said, "Mom, Luo Xi happens to have a villa, let's move to his place."
Xia Xiaofu looked at Ou Luoxi and blinked at him.
Ou Luoxi smiled softly and nodded.
"This is the only way now," Xia's mother looked at Ou Luoxi and nodded politely, "Then I'll trouble you."
"It's not a trouble at all." Ou Luoxi replied.
…
The three of them took Xia Bai to Ou Luoxi's villa. Ou Luoxi gave up his room to Xia Bai and let Xia Bai recuperate.
Xia Bai sat on the bed alone, his eyes were dazed. Xia Xiaofu squatted down and held his hand, "Dad."
Xia Bai did not react at all, as if he was in dementia.
"Mom, have you asked a doctor to see Dad?"
"Yes, those doctors said that your dad was too stimulated and was temporarily depressed. The doctor was at a loss." Xia's mother's eyes were red.
Xia Xiaofu quickly stepped forward and hugged her mother, "Mom, it's okay, I'm with you, Dad will get better slowly, our family will not be separated."
"Yes." Xia's mother reached out and wiped a tear.
Ou Luoxi stood by the door and looked at the mother and daughter. He said softly, "I'll go make dinner."
Xia Xiaofu let go of her mother and looked at Ou Luoxi. She raised the corners of her lips and nodded, "Yes."
Ou Luoxi turned and left.
Mother Xia looked at the boy's back, her eyes stayed on his right leg. Seeing him limping, Mother Xia frowned, "Xiao Fu, what happened to Ou Luoxi?"
"Mom, Luo Xi had a car accident and injured his right leg." Xia Xiaofu is still very distressed.
"Xiao Fu, have you been with Ou Luoxi all this time?"
"Yes, Mom, I am with Luo Xi. I want to be with him forever. I can't live without him." Xia Xiaofu revealed her feelings to Mother Xia.
Mother Xia's face was very stiff. She said earnestly, "Xiao Fu, have you thought it through? Marriage is not a joke. In all aspects, Ou Luoxi is not someone you can entrust your life to."
"Mom!" Xia Xiaofu pouted her red lips unhappily.
"Xiao Fu, I'm telling you the truth. Chen Jingyu likes you very much. Chen Jingyu helped your father in these two months. He has no relationship with my family. If he didn't like you, how could he come to help? Xiao Fu, I am very satisfied with Chen Jingyu. He is the son-in-law in my mind."
"Mom, I don't like Chen Jingyu. I only like Luo Xi."
"Xiao Fu, you are still young. You have a long life to live. You have to think clearly about what kind of man you want to marry? The Chen family is a family of scholars and Chen Jingyu is mature, steady, knowledgeable and graceful. This time your father is in trouble. , Chen Jingyu can bail your dad out of jail with just one phone call. If you show your goodwill to Chen Jingyu now, Chen Jingyu can help you with the smuggling case and the vampires in the company. "
"Look at Ou Luoxi again. Now your dad is in trouble. What can he do for you? You may like him now just because of his good looks, but after a long time, you will feel that he is not responsible enough. You will be tired of him or even disgusted with him. Besides, his right leg is lame now. He is basically a disabled person..."
"Mom, that's enough, don't say it!" Xia Xiaofu interrupted Xia's mother.
Standing outside the door, Ou Luoxi quietly listened to the mother and daughter arguing in the room. He didn't mean to eavesdrop, but he forgot to ask Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia what they liked to eat just now. He wanted to make something they liked.
Ou Luoxi's hands hanging at his side slowly clenched into fists. Every word of Xia's mother pierced his heart like a needle. He was a human being, he also had a sense of shame, and he would feel... pain.
But he said nothing, but turned around quietly and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
…
Ou Luoxi prepared four dishes and one soup, which were carefully prepared, so they were delicious, but Xia's mother ate very little.
At the table, Xia Xiaofu tried hard to adjust the atmosphere, but Xia's mother refused to give her face and even refused to smile. Ou Luoxi lowered his eyes to eat, and felt that the taste was just like wax.
After dinner, Ou Luoxi brought the soup stewed for Xia Bai into the room. Xia's mother fed Xia Bai the soup, and Ou Luoxi went downstairs to clean up the dishes and went into the kitchen.
Xia Xiaofu wanted to see Ou Luoxi, and then her cell phone rang.
She took out her cell phone and saw that it was a call from Chen Jingyu.
Xia Xiaofu glanced in the direction of the kitchen, then entered a room, closed the door, and answered the phone, "Hello, senior."
"Hello, Xiaofu, I finally got through to you. I thought you were missing." Chen Jingyu's clear voice came over.
"Senior, I'm sorry."
"Xiaofu, there's no need to say sorry between us. I've been paying attention to my uncle's affairs. I've been trying to get through to the people above these days. Let's meet tomorrow. The smuggling case should be easy to solve."
When Chen Jingyu said "easy to solve", he was very sure. Xia Xiaofu hesitated for a moment and then said, "Senior, thank you anyway, but I will find a way to deal with my father's matter. We are not related, and if you help me like this, there will be a lot of rumors."
"Xiaofu, I don't care..."
"Senior, I care. I have been with Ou Luoxi for the past two months. I can't forget him. I like him. We are together again, and we will never be separated."
Chen Jingyu on the other end was silent.
"Senior, I'm sorry, don't waste your time on me anymore, you will find a better girl than me."
"Heh," Chen Jingyu laughed at himself, "Xiao Fu, I like you, I have always liked you very much, you rejected me now, I am very sad, but I respect your decision, I can still help with uncle's affairs..."
"Senior, it's really not necessary."
"Xiao Fu, do you really want to draw a line with me like this?"
"Senior, I just don't want to give anyone hope anymore, and I don't want to use you."
...
After hanging up the phone, Xia Xiaofu took out all her bank cards. She has made a lot of money in the entertainment industry over the years, but her father's debt is also a bottomless pit, which requires a lot of money to fill.
Xia Xiaofu added up all the money she had, but it was not enough.
Far from enough.
It was more than half of it.
Xia Xiaofu was distressed for a while, then got up and went downstairs, and she went into the kitchen.
There was a dim light in the kitchen, Ou Luoxi was washing dishes at the sink wearing gloves, and then put the washed dishes into the cupboard. His movements were serious and focused.
Xia Xiaofu stood and looked at him for a while. His handsome features were covered with a soft and dazzling light, which made him look particularly beautiful. However, he would limp when he walked. This limp made him look much thinner. Such a quiet atmosphere also made him look a little lonely.
Xia Xiaofu walked forward gently, then stretched out her two slender arms to hug his waist and abdomen. She rubbed her little face against his back and said sweetly, "Luo Xi, you have worked hard today."
Ou Luoxi's facial features softened, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He smiled brightly, "It's not hard."
She also cooked for him, and it was his first time cooking for him. It was not hard for him to do this.
Xia Xiaofu hugged him tighter, "Luo Xi, it's great to have you."
Ou Luoxi cleaned up the dishes and took off the gloves on his hands. He turned around and wiped his right hand into his trouser pocket. He took out something and handed it to Xia Xiaofu, "Here."
"What?" Xia Xiaofu reached out to take it. It was a passbook.
Xia Xiaofu opened it and took a look. After seeing the countless circles on it, Xia Xiaofu covered her mouth and gasped. She was shocked and said, "Luo Xi, how can you have so much money?"
Ou Luoxi reached out and rubbed her hair, "I earned it all."
Xia Xiaofu didn't expect that he had made so much money in the entertainment industry in the past few years. He really deserves to be a popular cream boy and actor. She raised her delicate little oval face and smiled, "Luo Xi, is this money for me?"
"Yes, it's for you."
Xia Xiaofu trembled her butterfly-like long eyelashes. To be honest, she was embarrassed to take it. This must be all of Ou Luoxi's wealth.
But she was in urgent need of money now. With this money, her father's debts could be paid off. She shouldn't be hypocritical at this time.
Besides, she didn't accept the help Chen Jingyu gave her and couldn't accept it, but Ou Luoxi was her most beloved man. They were one and the same. She could accept what he gave her.
"Luo Xi, is this your wife's book?"
"Yes?" Ou Luoxi didn't understand.
"It's the money a man saves to marry a wife." Xia Xiaofu winked coquettishly.
Ou Luoxi looked at her and nodded.
Xia Xiaofu immediately smiled sweetly. She stood on tiptoe and hugged his neck, then took the initiative to kiss his thin lips, "Luoxi, if it's your wife, then I'll accept it. We'll make the money back in the future."
"Yes." Ou Luoxi held her slender waist and gently held her in his arms.
Xia Xiaofu bit his earlobe and called out in a sweet and crisp voice, "Husband..."
Ou Luoxi's whole facial features were immersed in tenderness. His big hand touched the back of her head. He wanted to kiss her red lips.
At this time, "cough cough...", Xia's mother appeared at the kitchen door.
The two quickly let go, and Xia Xiaofu coughed awkwardly, "Mom, you haven't slept yet?"
"Well, I'm thirsty, come and get a glass of water," Xia's mother looked at Xia Xiaofu, "Why don't you go back to your room to sleep so late? Mom has insomnia recently, Xiaofu, you can sleep with mom tonight."
Xia Xiaofu paused, she has been sleeping with Ou Luoxi recently.
But facing her mother's gaze, she had to nod, "Oh, I know, mom, I'll go back to my room later."
"Okay." Xia's mother turned and left.
After Xia's mother left, Xia Xiaofu looked at Ou Luoxi apologetically, "Luoxi, I have to sleep with my mother at night."
Ou Luoxi looked normal, he nodded with his lips hooked, "Okay, I'll sleep next door, call me if you need anything."
"Well..." Xia Xiaofu hesitated a little, "Luoxi, my mother just met you, she may still be a little unfamiliar with you, don't take it to heart."
"I know, don't worry, I will try my best to make my aunt like me."
"Luoxi, you are so nice." Xia Xiaofu tiptoed and kissed his cheek, "Good night."
"Good night."
Ou Luoxi stood by the door and watched Xia Xiaofu enter the room.
…
Xia Xiaofu took a lawyer to deal with the smuggling case, but the investigation was strict and the wind was tight. She didn't have connections like Chen Jingyu to deal with it, so there was no progress in the smuggling case.
Every day at home, Ou Luoxi watched Xia Xiaofu go out early and come back late, frowning, and he was very anxious.
Xia Bai's condition stagnated, and Xia's mother sighed. He tried to please Xia's mother in various ways three times a day, but Xia's mother never smiled at him.
That night, Xia Xiaofu went home and talked to her mother in the room---
"Mom, I'm sorry, I haven't handled the smuggling case. The bail date is getting closer and closer. Someone from the police station may come to take Dad back to the police station in the next two days."
"What? Your dad is now in a daze and needs someone to take care of him. I don't think he will last a few days if he goes to the police station again. Xiaofu, he is your biological father. You should think of a way. Chen Jingyu..."
"Mom, it's not convenient for me to ask Chen Jingyu for help."
"Why? Even if you are not with Chen Jingyu, as a friend, Chen Jingyu is like this. Character, he will definitely help you, is there anything more important than your father in this world? "
"I..." Xia Xiaofu hesitated, "Everyone knows what Chen Jingyu thinks about me. If I contact him, what will Luo Xi think when she knows?"
Xia's mother was furious, "Let him think whatever he wants. If you have the ability, let him help you solve this smuggling case! Look at Chen Jingyu and then look at him. He just stays at home all day and cooks a few dishes to make us happy. He has no ability or prospects. I have a headache when I see him..."
"Mom!" Xia Xiaofu quickly spoke out to stop him.
Xia's mother also realized that her words were too harsh, and she quickly fell silent, but thinking of the miserable situation of the Xia family today, Xia's mother couldn't help crying again.
"Mom..." Xia Xiaofu could only hug her mother to give her strength.
Ou Luoxi stood outside the door and listened. After listening, he turned and went into his room.
Take out the phone and call the agent Aye.
"Hello, Aye."
"Hello, Luo Xi, we haven't contacted each other for several years. Why did you think of contacting me today?"
"Aye, please arrange a dinner for me."
"Luo Xi, do you want to make a comeback?"
"No, I need help with something."
Aye understood, but he was silent. After a while, he said with embarrassment, "Luo Xi, a few years ago, your dinner value was higher than that of popular first-line actresses, but more than two years ago, you withdrew from the public eye at the peak of your glory. Your fame has declined, and you should know what a dinner means to you."
Those dignitaries spend money to invite popular artists to dinner. To put it bluntly, they just want to take advantage of them. It is normal for female stars to be touched or accompany them for drinking. Ou Luoxi is a man. What good can those men do by inviting him?
