Chenxing was furious, "You’re just like them, birds of a feather!"
"Keep your voice down, be careful not to scare your two little darlings," Luo Xi made a shushing gesture, then continued, "Where did this ’birds of a feather’ co from? Now Gu Shaocheng is missing, and no one can find out what’s going on. They’re definitely afraid sothing unexpected has happened. If sothing really did happen, sending you away would at least give them peace of mind to handle things, do you understand? What are you staying at the Gu Family for? Your man isn’t even here."
"I’m guarding the house for him. If he goes missing and I just run off, what does that make ?" Chenxing said, feeling a sharp pang of sorrow in her nose.
It’s been more than ten days, with no news of Shaocheng. She pondered day and night, constantly reassuring herself that it was just a routine trip. However, seeing everyone in a panic as if facing a great enemy really hit her hard. Their behavior shattered her self-reassurance, making even pretending things were normal into self-deception.
"How could anything happen to Shaocheng? It’s impossible anything happened to him. Why are you all so panicked? Is it really necessary?" Her throat caught, trying to keep her voice calm, yet it choked up, "He said it himself, he’d be back in three days, telling to rest well at ho, telling not to wander around. He’s such a domineering person. If I don’t listen to him, when he cos back, he’d definitely get upset with ..."
Before she could finish, Luo Xi reached out and hugged her, his voice softening as he soothingly patted her back, "Alright, it’s okay. I also believe nothing will happen to him. I’m sorry, my temper isn’t very good. Let’s just pretend we’re going on a trip, and by then, when Gu Shaocheng personally cos to pick you up and take you ho, how does that sound?"
"No, I want to go ho."
"Chenxing, even if you don’t think of yourself, think of the two babies in diapers. What if sothing really happens to Gu Shaocheng, what if you and the children are threatened, then what will you do, hmm? Have you thought about it?"
Chenxing, "But..."
Luo Xi interrupted her unspoken words, "But if you are in a safe enough place, you can properly guard the ho for Gu Shaocheng. What do you think ho ans? To , ho is family. Only when the family is safe does a man have no worries about anything else he does. That’s what I call guarding the ho."
"Really?"
Luo Xi smiled, "Of course. By guarding the two children well, you are protecting Gu Shaocheng’s ho. I also hope this is just a false alarm, with Yan Fengchi and the others making a fuss over nothing. But it’s better to be safe than sorry. Let’s not add trouble to the n, OK?"
"What about Huanhuan?"
"Huanhuan is in the car behind, sleeping like a log. We’ll probably reach the destination in about twenty minutes. Driving in the snow is difficult and slippery," Luo Xi said, letting her go and smiling reassuringly, "Fengchi told that this place is where Gu Shaocheng arranged for you. Those kinds of n like to have everything arranged properly, looking far ahead. I heard from Yan Fengchi that they discussed a year ago, if one day sothing happened, or might happen, they would send their wives here imdiately. So you don’t need to worry. This isn’t Bai Wuqing and Fengchi acting on their own; they’re just following Gu Shaocheng’s orders. It’s all arranged by your man."
