Chapter 156: Way Out
Lu Yunjue was extremely shocked when these words came out: "Did mother really say this?"
Hu Xin'er couldn't fully digest it. "Tell me, has Mom been upset by something?"
She even suspected that someone had murdered her, causing Mother Lu to lose her mind and not even recognize her own son!
She told Lu Yunjue her suspicions, and Lu Yunjue's eyes darkened: "I'll go check on the old friend that my mother visited before."
All the previous clues clearly proved that Mu Qing was Lu Yunjue!
Although he longed for the free and unrestrained life in the countryside, after arriving in the capital, he had developed feelings for Lu's mother under her careful care and regarded her as his own biological mother.
Hu Xin'er approved of his decision: "I'll go find your eldest princess and ask if I can borrow the Shadow Guards to help you investigate!"
"By the way, why did mother say that I am not Lu Yunjue?" Lu Yunjue asked puzzledly.
It can't be just conjecture.
He raised his hand to look at his wrist, remembering the change of expression on Mother Lu's face when she saw his wrist on the day of their wedding.
Hu Xin'er showed a tangled look: "Mother said that Lu Yunjue has a cinnabar mole on his right wrist, but you don't..."
The previous dream flashed before Lu Yunjue's eyes, and he suddenly shuddered. Mother Lu was familiar with her own son, and there was no way she would make a mistake in remembering such an obvious mole.
Then... could it be that he really is not Lu Yunjue?
As soon as this thought came to mind, a dull pain began to linger in my mind.
Seeing his painful expression, Hu Xin'er asked in a panic, "Lu Yunjue... Mu Qing, what's wrong with you? Don't overthink it. There aren't so many people in the world who are exactly the same."
But in fact, both husband and wife knew the answer in their hearts.
There are very few identical coincidences in this world, but what if they are man-made?
A huge net covering the sky and the earth is tightening, trying to bind them.
But they didn't wake up until now.
If Mu Qing is really Lu Yunjue, how do you explain the disappearance of the cinnabar mole on his hand?
"Let me think about it first..." Lu Yunjue tried hard to recall, some incomplete memory fragments flashed in his mind, and the rest was blank.
The truth is so confusing and hidden, but Lu Yunjue has lost his memory. The harder he tries to think, the more painful it becomes, and he can't find any useful memory.
He slapped his head hard. Hu Xin'er grabbed his hand distressedly: "What are you doing? No matter what, you can't hurt yourself!"
"Don't stop me, let me think about it!" Mu Qing slapped his head, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
"Mu Qing!" Hu Xiner called out loudly, and softened when she saw Mu Qing's confused look.
She soothed him softly, "Don't worry about your memory. I'll earn money to find a doctor for you. One day I'll be able to cure you and help you regain your memory."
"But this matter is urgent and has become a knot in my mother's heart. Moreover, it is related to my life experience..." Mu Qing only felt waves of pain in his head.
"Anyway, no matter you are Mu Qing or Lu Yunjue, we can face it together." Hu Xiner stood on tiptoe, hooked her arms around his neck, and threw herself into his arms.
Feeling the warmth of the lady in his arms, Mu Qing's restless heart felt as if being caressed by a gentle breeze, and his mood gradually calmed down.
Hu Xin'er smiled playfully: "Just be a kept gigolo!"
Lu Yunjue laughed. He knew very well that Hu Xin'er was deliberately trying to make him happy.
But his brows did not relax. He sighed silently and complained, "Xin'er, I'm a waste. I can't make any money, and I still want you to work hard."
"What are you thinking about? Your handsome face is a priceless treasure. Looking at it every day can extend my life by ten years. Making money is just like giving you 'eye-pleasing money'!" Hu Xiner immediately retorted.
You can't say anything else about Mu Qing, but you absolutely cannot say that he is ugly!
After all, she didn't understand much about literary intrigue and the like, and in terms of business, Mu Qing's personality destined him to be slightly inferior to her.
But if anyone doubted Mu Qing's looks, she would use her status as a cartoonist and member of the Diamond Level Appearance Association to refute them harshly!
These three parts of the face, five eyes, this whole temperament, and some aspects that only married women understand...
hiss!
Mu Qing asked doubtfully, "Madam, what are you thinking about?"
"Hehe, it's nothing, nothing!" Hu Xiner felt a little ashamed. She actually got distracted while discussing such a serious issue.
"But..." Mu Qing leaned in closer, "You clearly swallowed just now."
"I didn't, you saw it wrong!"
Hu Xiner didn't want her husband to know her weird side. She had complained before about Mu Qing being boring and wanting her at all times.
It turned out that I was also... I must have been infected by this guy!
But think about it, since entering the Duke's Mansion, I have to take care of some affairs of the Mansion when I return home every day, and I am so busy that I fall asleep as soon as I touch the pillow.
The last time I was with Mu Qing... was a long time ago.
She stopped thinking in time, and Mu Qing was half-believing and half-doubting: "Really? But you just swallowed again."
"You came too close, and I was a little nervous." Hu Xiner made up a lie calmly.
Mu Qing saw that she was lying and remained silent for a long time.
Hu Xiner's heart was in her throat.
Mu Qing showed a look of anxiety: "My lady, do you also think I'm useless and want to find a new handsome man?"
"Ah...ah?" Hu Xin'er almost thought that she was going to be exposed, but she didn't expect Mu Qing's train of thought to be so twisted!
As she stared in amazement, Mu Qing sighed softly, "Perhaps in my wife's heart, I am just one of her three thousand lovers. When I grow old and lose my beauty, she will lust after others."
"What are you thinking about?" Hu Xin'er blurted out, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "I only covet your..."
She covered her mouth in time.
But Mu Qing had already heard it and gave him a meaningful look.
In fact, he had already guessed what his wife was thinking, he just wanted to confirm it.
"Okay, you still have the mind to tease me!" Hu Xiner was embarrassed and angry.
She was always so optimistic and positive. Mu Qing smiled and let her beat him. He felt all the haze in his heart dissipate and his love for her grew deeper.
"Since Mother is feeling depressed, we can no longer work at the Duke's Mansion. We must find an opportunity to bid farewell to the Duke."
After the play, Hu Xiner snuggled in Mu Qing's arms and talked about business.
Mu Qing nodded, he thought so too.
"Then I have to find a new way out..." Hu Xiner thought to herself, if Mu Qing is really not Lu Yunjue, she has to find a way out first.
After coming to the capital, she had not been working so hard to make money, but now for Mu Qing, she was racking her brains to think of a profitable business.
But this place is different from the village. That little money is considered wealthy in the village, but it can’t do anything in the capital!
Erdong heard the princess talk about Lu's mother, and came to visit as a friend. When he learned that Hu Xiner wanted to make money, he talked about a way out.
