A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu Chapter 827 - I Won't Let You Get Hurt Again

Chapter 827 I Won’t Let You Get Hurt Again

Xu Youning tore off the bandage and made a slipknot. “It’s done.”

“…” Mu Sijue did not respond.

She raised her head curiously and saw Mu Sijue be obviously distracted.

When it came to that she had dealt with her wounds countless times, wasn’t she the one who should be lost in thought?

Why did Mu Sijue steal her scene?

While Xu Youning was indignant, Mu Sijue suddenly reached out and pushed aside the hair on her left forehead.

She subconsciously dodged and put her hands in front of her chest as a defense. “What are you doing?”

“Don’t move!”

Mu Sijue forcefully held Xu Youning’s head with one hand and stroked the scar on her forehead with his thumb.

The three-centimeter scar was like a centipede resting on her forehead. Although it was hard to see it because of the shelter of her hair, it was on her face after all.

This scar was left for Mu Sijue’s sake.

A year ago in City A, Kang Ruicheng suddenly sent some people to attack Mu Sijue. Xu Youning pushed Mu Sijue away at a critical moment, and was knocked down the hill by a car. Instantly, her forehead was broken and bleeding.

Later, the wound was st.i.tched up. After the sutures were removed, although she had applied some medicine on the wound, there was still an obvious scar on her forehead.

For so long, Xu Youning herself had almost forgotten this scar, but Mu Sijue still remembered it.

She removed Mu Sijue’s hand and said in a casual tone as Mu Sijue had done just now, “It doesn’t matter.”

Shen Yuechuan once said that a girl would always care about her own face no matter how she lived, not to mention that Xu Youning was originally a good-looking woman.

Mu Sijue said, “I’ll take you to have an operation.”

“Ahem!” Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue in disbelief. “Are you serious?”

“Of course, but not now.” Mu Sijue said, “After the baby is born, I’ll take you there when you recover.”

He seemed to be serious.

“… No!” Xu Youning tidied up the first-aid kit and stood up. “Mu Sijue, when you see this scar, you will remember that I saved you, right? I will never have an operation. I just want you to remember that I saved you forever!”

“…” Mu Sijue took a deep look at Xu Youning and said, “In that case, I can promise you another thing.”

He said it seriously, and there was a hint of absoluteness in his tone that could not be ignored.

To put it bluntly, he was overbearing.

However, Xu Youning was confused. “Mu Sijue, I don’t seem to have made any requests to you…” “What does Mu Sijue want to promise me?”

Mu Sijue glanced at Xu Youning with disdain. After a while, he said, “I promise you, I won’t let you get hurt again.”

Xu Youning choked again and almost could not react.

When she came to her senses, she found it interesting. She looked at Mu Sijue with a big smile and asked, “Are you making a promise?”

Why did Mu Sijue’s promise sound as if G.o.d was announcing his will?

It was both fantastic and unexpected, and she could only accept it.

After all, how could mortals defy G.o.d’s will?

Mu Sijue narrowed his dark eyes and asked, “Did you hear me clearly?”

Xu Youning trembled and nodded hurriedly. “Yes!”

“Very good.” Mu Sijue ordered, “Remember it!”

This was the first time he had made a promise to a woman. If Xu Youning did not remember it…

Thinking of this, Mu Sijue suddenly realized that even if Xu Youning didn’t remember it well, he could not do anything to her.

He would still protect her from getting hurt.

Mu Sijue finally understood what Lu Boyan had said. You had a lot of ways to deal with others, but you couldn’t do anything to her.

This feeling that he could do nothing to a person should be terrible.

However, he didn’t want to make any changes.

At the same time, it was the first time that someone told Xu Youning that he would protect her.

Although Mu Sijue said this in a roundabout way, Xu Youning still felt a warm thing generating in her heart, and it gradually filled her whole heart.

It was the feeling of being touched. She hadn’t experienced it for a long time, and she did not expect that Mu Sijue would let her try it without warning.

Xu Youning did not tell Mu Sijue that she might never get hurt again…

…

On the second floor, in the children’s room.

After drinking milk in the arms of their parents, Xiyu and Xiangyi fell asleep.

Su Jian’an calculated the time, tugged at Lu Boyan and said, “Let’s go down.”

When they got downstairs, sure enough, Xu Youning had already dealt with Mu Sijue’s wound.

Su Jian’an walked over and said, “You haven’t had dinner yet, have you? We haven’t had dinner either. We can eat together.”

Uncle Xu served the food, and the last dish was a pot of soup with Chinese herbal medicine. Mrs. Wu said, “When Mrs. Lu was pregnant with Xiyu and Xiangyi, the chef often cooked this soup. Miss Xu, drink some. It’s very nouris.h.i.+ng!”

Xu Youning was a little embarra.s.sed, but the soup was really delicious. She even had a better appet.i.te than before.

After the meal, Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue went to the study to talk about some matters. Only Su Jian’an and Xu Youning were left in the living room.

Mrs. Wu brought a plate of fruits and two cups of hot tea. Su Jian’an took them and handed a cup of tea to Xu Youning, saying, “I think Sijue seems to have changed.”

Xu Youning tugged at the tea bag and asked curiously, “What change is there in him? Why don’t I feel anything?”

“Those closely involved cannot see clearly.” Su Jian’an thought for a moment and added, “To put it bluntly, Sijue isn’t as scary as he used to be. Do you know how Yunyun calls him? Boss Mu. If Yunyun sees him now, she won’t call him like that.”

After a pause, Su Jian’an continued, “The dark and mysterious aura from Sijue is diluted. Is it because he is to be a father?”

“Puff…” Xu Youning almost spat out the hot tea in her mouth. “Jian’an, that’s your illusion. There’s no change in Mu Sijue. Mu Sijue pulled the trigger without batting an eye even when we were attacked on the way here just now. He…”

Su Jian’an interrupted Xu Youning. “Sijue did that to protect you, didn’t he?”

“…” Xu Youning was stunned. Just now, Mu Sijue was indeed trying his best to protect her.

Su Jian’an smiled and ate a piece of grapefruit, leisurely enjoying Xu Youning’s speechless expression.

After a long while, Xu Youning came to her senses and took a sip of hot tea.

Su Jian’an seized this opportunity and went straight to the point. “Youning, since you’re already back, just stay.”

Xu Youning held the teacup tightly and smiled. “I want to go up and see the two babies. They were born so long ago, but I haven’t seen them carefully.”

She was changing the topic, stiffly and obviously.

Su Jian’an had to end the topic and took Xu Youning upstairs.

Coincidentally, Xiangyi woke up. It was rare for her to not cry. She lay quietly on the baby’s bed and gnawed at her fingers.

Su Jian’an picked up her daughter and poked her little face. “Auntie Youning is here to see you.”

The little girl looked at Xu Youning and made some vague sounds. No one knew what she wanted to say.

Xu Youning looked at the little girl with delicate and tender skin, and asked, “Can I hug her?”

“Of course.” Su Jian’an handed Xiangyi directly to Xu Youning.

When Mumu was a child, Xu Youning had also hugged him. But at that time, Mumu had already been able to climb and sit. Xiangyi was a newborn in its strict sense.

The little girl was very obedient, quietly leaning in Xu Youning’s arms and constantly looking at Su Jian’an. Occasionally, she would look at Xu Youning, as if to recognize her mother. She looked very cute.

Xu Youning couldn’t help thinking that if her and Mu Sijue’s child could come to this world, would it be a boy or a girl? If it was a girl, would she be as cute as Xiangyi?

Xiangyi suddenly burst into tears and struggled in Xu Youning’s arms. Xu Youning instantly didn’t know what to do.

“Don’t worry.” Su Jian’an smiled and hugged her daughter. “Let me hold her.”

In Su Jian’an’s arms, the little girl was still crying. Su Jian’an was afraid that she would wake up Xiyu, so she had to coax Xiangyi while carrying her out.

Xu Youning looked at Su Jian’an and suddenly felt that being a mother was a happy thing.

She might also have… such happiness.

Outside, Xiangyi’s childish and soft crying entered the study. Lu Boyan pushed open the door and walked out. “What’s wrong with Xiangyi?”

“She is crying again.” Su Jian’an’s tone was full of helplessness. “Do you think she is going to help Xiyu shed tears?”

It was not unreasonable for Su Jian’an to say so.

Normally, Xiyu hardly cried, but Xiangyi’s crying echoed in the house from time to time, which sounded pitiful and heartbreaking.

Lu Boyan smiled and held his daughter. “It doesn’t matter. I can comfort her.”

Su Jian’an was speechless. It was the first time she had seen someone who doted on his daughter so much…

Xiangyi always listened to Lu Boyan’s words more, and she stopped crying soon after she entered her father’s arms. She happily moved in Lu Boyan’s arms, with her big black grape-like eyes keeping rolling.

While Lu Boyan teased his daughter, his smile slowly climbed up to the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. He obviously forgot that Mu Sijue was still waiting for him in the study.

Su Jian’an did not forget that and reminded Lu Boyan. He said, “I’ll go in with Xiangyi in my arms.”

Xu Youning watched the whole process and couldn’t help sighing. “Boss Lu has really changed.”

Su Jian’an was used to such a sigh and smiled. “Let’s go down first.”

There were only Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue left in the study on the second floor, as well as Xiangyi.

Perhaps it was because she had slept for a while, she was particularly energetic and kept moving in Lu Boyan’s arms. As soon as Lu Boyan’s attention was diverted from her, she protested with vague sounds, so Lu Boyan could only stop to coax her.

Seeing this, Mu Sijue said, “As for the rest, let’s talk about it next time.”

“Yep,” Lu Boyan said. “You can go down first. I’ll coax my daughter to sleep.”

Mu Sijue did not get up, and his eyes were fixed on Lu Boyan and Xiangyi.

Lu Boyan was in confusion. “Is there anything else?”

Mu Sijue said, “I think I can… learn how to hold a baby.”

Lu Boyan broke into laughter. “Do you want to have a try?”

When Xiangyi was born, Mu Sijue held her in his arms in the hospital. He tried to recall the right position of holding a child and carefully took over little Xiangyi.

After staring at Mu Sijue for a while, Xiangyi suddenly grabbed his clothes and said, “Hmm,” as if she was greeting Mu Sijue, without feeling strange or rejecting him at all.

Mu Sijue raised the corner of his mouth and suddenly looked forward to seeing his own baby more…
