Chapter 129 Goodbye Old Friend
Su Xinyao had looked for Su Tang, and she told Lu Xiao when she got home that night.
Hearing his wife's words, Lu Xiao frowned slightly.
He didn't expect that Su Xinyao would dare to come here to find Su Tang so blatantly.
"After all, she didn't do anything that day. It wasn't enough to constitute a crime. At most, it was a case of disturbing public order."
After Su Tang finished speaking, he thought about what Su Xinyao said.
"Still thinking about what she said."
Lu Xiao looked at Su Tang who was thinking and asked.
"Her words today made me even more certain that my guess that day was correct."
Su Tang had guessed before that there must be something in Lu Xiao that Su Xinyao needed, which made her so persistent in pursuing Lu Xiao.
And what Su Xinyao said today made Su Tang more determined in what he had thought before.
If Lu Xiao doesn't have what Su Xinyao wants, then why does she have to persuade Su Tang to leave him again and again?
"Okay, no matter what she wants to do, we just ignore her. I will protect you and the child."
After Lu Xiao finished speaking, he took Su Tang into his arms and patted her gently to comfort her.
Su Tang didn't say anything else, but once the seed of doubt was planted, it would grow wildly until it became a towering tree.
Lu Xiao saw that Su Tang was in deep thought, so he thought about it and came up with a good idea.
That day, Su Tang just got off work and heard a commotion in the house. Listening carefully, he seemed to hear some familiar voices.
"Look, our busy man is back."
Sister Zhang Cui's crisp voice came from inside. Su Tang's eyes flashed with surprise and he walked forward quickly.
"Hey, slow down, slow down, people can't run away here."
Seeing Su Tang's hurried footsteps, Mrs. Zhang Cui was also startled and hurried out of the house to support Su Tang.
"Sister-in-law, Lin Qian, Brother Li, Sister Qiu, why are you all here?"
After saying that, Su Tang raised his eyes and looked at the house again, and unexpectedly found Sister Li and Aunt Wang.
"Look at what you're saying. We haven't come to see you since you moved here."
"It was Chang Jia who went back and told me you were pregnant. I was so happy that I rushed over here."
Sister Zhang Cui always speaks frankly. After she said these words, Su Tang also smiled a lot.
"Actually, our Vice Captain Lu felt that you were pregnant and in a bad mood, so he asked us to come and keep you company."
"You said we were good sisters, but you moved here and never went back to see me once."
Lin Qian also came up and said something.
Su Tang held her hand somewhat embarrassedly.
"I've been having a lot of things happen lately, so I haven't had time."
Lin Qian snorted and turned her head away pretending to be angry.
"I won't be angry unless you lend me the book you said you wanted to read last time."
Everyone was clamoring to get together.
The chef in the kitchen today is Zhang Cui's husband Li Haixin. He is a real chef. The food is delicious even before it is ready.
When Lu Xiao came back, he saw everyone talking together.
Sister Zhang Cui was directing Li Haixin to serve the dishes to the table. Lin Qian came up to Su Tang holding a red cloth package and gesturing with a piece of flowered cloth in her hand.
"What do you think of this peacock blue? It'll make a little jacket for you to wear after you give birth and come out of confinement."
Su Tang looked up and met Lu Xiao's smiling eyes. The man's brows relaxed, the sharpness faded, leaving only an unbreakable gentleness.
"Deputy Captain Lu is finally back!"
Li Haixin poked his head out of the kitchen wearing an apron and shaking a spatula in his hand.
"Wait three more minutes, and the final candied sweet potato dish will be ready!"
Lu Xiao nodded and said thank you for your hard work. He walked to Su Tang and asked her questions.
Zhang Cui is sharp-eyed and slapped Li Haixin on the back: "Look at Deputy Commander Lu, he's really loving his wife. Unlike you, last time I sprained my ankle, you blamed me for keeping you from drinking."
The whole room burst into laughter. Li Haixin scratched his head and said defensively, "It's just that it's a rare gathering of old comrades..."
The dinner table was even more lively.
The small house was packed with family and friends.
Su Tang was very happy. Later, he learned from Lin Jianqiu that it was all done by Lu Xiao.
He went to her house in person and invited them to come and stay with her.
"It's such a long way, and he was worried that it would be inconvenient for us, so he drove all the way here."
"Su Tang, Lu Xiao is really a very good man."
Listening to Sister Qiu's words, Su Tang felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
Of course she knew that Lu Xiao was a good person, responsible and capable.
It seemed that as long as he was there, she would not be afraid no matter what dangers lay ahead.
After dinner, Lu Xiao prepared a place for them to rest. After all, the journey was long and they definitely couldn’t go back tonight.
After returning home, Su Tang looked at Lu Xiao and asked, "Why didn't Chang Jia come today?"
"You still want to see Chang Jia. Don't worry, you'll see him more often in the future."
When Lu Xiao heard his wife mention other men, he still felt a little jealous.
Even though this other man was his best friend and his most loyal comrade.
"Why do you say that?"
"Chang Jia has been promoted and will be transferred to us to be my deputy. From now on, you will not only be able to see Chang Jia, but also Sister Qiu."
Hearing this, Su Tang's eyes widened slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Of course she was very happy to meet old people and friends here.
"Now that you're happy, don't think about those bad things anymore."
Hearing Lu Xiao's words, Su Tang nodded. Everything he did today was to make her happy.
It would make him feel disappointed if she continued to worry about those stupid things.
After about seven or eight days, Chang Jia's transfer order came as expected, followed by Lu Xiao's promotion appointment.
Lu Xiao was successfully promoted to the leader of the front line.
This made Su Tang sigh that no one could compare to Lu Xiao in terms of the speed of promotion.
No wonder the book describes him as the most powerful person in the end.
But there is something better than this.
After the investigation, Su's father and mother successfully reinstated their positions and they can now return to Shanghai.
Return to their own home.
When receiving the news, Su's father said nothing, but his eyes became redder. Su's mother had already been crying beside him.
They had been waiting for this day for a very long time, and the two old people even thought that they would not be able to see the end of this matter and would have to bear a bad reputation for the rest of their lives.
"Mom and Dad, you can go back to Shanghai now. Whether you choose to go back or stay here, I respect your choice."
Su Tang held Su's father and mother's hands and said this with a smile.
After all, they are used to living in Shanghai, and even now in the northwest, they feel like they are barely adapting.
Su Tang felt that perhaps returning to Shanghai was the most suitable lifestyle for them.
But she can't go back to Shanghai in the short term, and can't take care of her parents.
Su Tang had a headache.
