Chapter 51
No, that shouldn't be possible. Meng Yinyin wouldn't go to Lu Chen to complain like a little kid, right?
Even if she said it, given Lu Chen's cold personality, he probably wouldn't come to see her on purpose, right?
Of course, the most important thing is that Lin Xiuzhi didn't think that what she said yesterday was wrong or excessive. She was just telling the truth.
Thinking of this, she forced herself to calm down, then quickly packed her clothes and walked out.
"Lu Chen, why are you here?"
She pretended to be extremely surprised, walked into the yard, and came face to face with Lu Chen.
It must be said that the weather was really gloomy last night. The bright light at this moment made Lu Chen's outstanding appearance and healthy figure stand out even more. Lin Xiuzhi was becoming more and more satisfied with him.
Seeing the protagonist come out, Lu Chen and Dou Zhengrong both looked at her.
At this sight, Lu Chen's expression didn't change, but Dou Zhengrong's eyes narrowed slightly, because he found that Lin Xiuzhi actually took out the most beautiful clothes in her closet, which she said she would wear when she went to the city in the future.
As for why she wore this dress on a whim today, Dou Zhengrong only felt funny when he thought of that guess, but more of it was a sense of absurdity and incongruity.
There is something really wrong with Lin Xiuzhi now. She is so different from her past self.
He actually knew in his heart that he had not taken good care of his wife and children over the years due to work. He had made mistakes, but apart from not having time to accompany them, he did not owe them anything financially. He would even go home to see them whenever he had the chance.
It can be said that over the years, he has managed to maintain a very good balance in his family life. In addition, he and Lin Xiuzhi have a very good relationship, so there have basically been no problems.
Even when his leg was injured, he worried about many things, but the last thing he worried about was whether his wife and children would abandon him, because he knew very well how gentle and kind his wife, Lin Xiuzhi, was.
As it turned out, she did so, and took great care of him during the few days she was home.
But, from when did the change begin?
It seemed that starting from one day after she had a fever, fell ill and fell into a coma, her whole person suddenly changed. If it weren't for her appearance, and the fact that she had always been under his nose, he sometimes even wondered if Lin Xiuzhi had become a different person. Otherwise, would a person's personality change so much in just a few days?
While Dou Zhengrong was deep in thought, Lin Xiuzhi had already walked up to Lu Chen and asked him with a smile.
"Lu Chen, you're looking for me? What's the matter?"
When the two children, Dabao and Erbao, heard her gentle voice, they unconsciously revealed nostalgic expressions.
It had been a long time since they heard their mother speak in such a soft voice, and it had been a long time since they saw her smile at them.
Now that my mother has returned to her former self, does that prove that she will become normal and be the gentle mother again?
Dou Zhengrong took in the longing in the two children's eyes, and an idea in his heart became more and more firm.
However, Lu Chen seemed not to notice Lin Xiuzhi's tone and smile and did not react at all.
He looked at Lin Xiuzhi with a scrutinizing look in his eyes and a tone of questioning.
"I want to ask you if you need my help with anything. Also, Yinyin is my partner and my lover. I don't need to hide anything from her. So you can't tell her what you said to her yesterday about the things between us. I hope you won't say it to her again in the future."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Xiuzhi's face turned red.
Especially the sentence "You can't tell her what happened between us" is too suggestive, as if it is saying that there is something going on between her and Lu Chen.
But Lu Chen came to the house and said it in person, and his attitude was very clear, that is, there was no private relationship between him and Lin Xiuzhi at all.
If there was, it could only be one-sided on Lin Xiuzhi's part. In short, it was impossible for Lu Chen to have any feelings for her.
This action was tantamount to pressing Lin Xiuzhi's face to the ground. She was extremely ashamed and angry for a moment.
Dou Zhengrong next to her looked directly at her with an unclear expression.
Obviously he wasn't angry, and he didn't even raise any questions, but for some reason Lin Xiuzhi's heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if something was out of control.
"I, I didn't say that. Did Meng Zhiqing hear it wrongly?"
Lin Xiuzhi was determined not to admit it, because she had never thought that things would turn out like this. Once she admitted it, she would become an unfaithful woman in Lu Chen's eyes. After all, she had not divorced Dou Zhengrong yet.
As for Dou Zhengrong, although she has always looked down on him, she is very sure of one thing. Before she gets divorced, she can only live in Dou Zhengrong's house. Moreover, Dou Zhengrong cannot file for divorce just because he finds out that she wants to be with Lu Chen. She has to let Dou Zhengrong file for divorce on his own initiative. Only in this way can she get compensation!
But now, nothing is going in the direction she had imagined. What should she do?
"I really didn't mean that, Lu Chen, you should believe me. We have known each other for so many years, don't you know what kind of person I am?"
Lin Xiuzhi could only play the old friendship card as much as possible to make Lu Chen believe her.
Hearing this, Lu Chen frowned slightly, and the strange feeling in his heart deepened a lot.
Precisely because he knew Lin Xiuzhi's character well, what she said now seemed even more wrong.
According to her previous personality, she would never say such a thing. Playing the emotional card? It is absolutely impossible for her to do such a thing.
Could it be that Lin Xiuzhi really had a brain injury?
No matter how smart Lu Chen was, he could not have imagined that the soul in Lin Xiuzhi's body had been replaced by a new person. He could only think that Lin Xiuzhi had a bad brain.
Since her brain was broken, there was no way to communicate normally, so Lu Chen could only look at Dou Zhengrong with a frown.
"Brother Dou, that's all I want to say. Please take good care of Sister Xiuzhi from now on. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, Lu Chen was ready to leave, and Dou Zhengrong could only smile at him apologetically, and then said: "No matter what, I have to say sorry to you about this matter. Brother Lu, I will see you off."
Lu Chen thought of his legs and wanted to say no, but he noticed that Dou Zhengrong winked at him, as if he had something to say to him, so he nodded.
Then Dou Zhengrong let the two children play in the yard, and then walked out while saying sorry to Lu Chen.
Fortunately, at this moment Lin Xiuzhi was still immersed in the fear that she was in trouble and her plan had failed. In addition, it seemed that Dou Zhengrong wanted to apologize to Lu Chen on her behalf, so she did not think too much about it.
Thinking about the bad impression she had left on Lu Chen, she also had to explain to Dou Zhengrong later, otherwise she would get nothing in the future if they divorced.
No, I have to think about it carefully!
So soon, Lin Xiuzhi also returned to the room.
Here, after Lu Chen and Dou Zhengrong walked some distance away from the Dou family, he slowly stopped and called Lu Chen.
"Brother Lu."
Lu Chen turned and looked at him, signaling him to speak his mind.
Dou Zhengrong liked his straightforward personality and smiled, but his tone was slightly bitter.
"I believe that Xiuzhi has changed. You should have seen it. She is different now."
Lu Chen nodded.
Then, Dou Zhengrong told Lu Chen about the changes and turning points that had taken place in Lin Xiuzhi during this period of time.
After finishing speaking, Dou Zhengrong suddenly asked him.
"No matter how much a person's personality changes, can it be so big that they become two completely different people?"
This question made Lu Chen not know how to answer, but he could also see that Dou Zhengrong didn't actually need his answer at all, he already knew the answer in his mind.
After a while, he finally spoke.
"So, what you mean is."
"I don't really mean anything. When I married Xiuzhi, I promised her that I would only have her as my wife in this life, but the premise is -"
"This person must be Lin Xiuzhi."
Dou Zhengrong's eyes suddenly became stern when he said this, and Lu Chen was slightly surprised.
So what Dou Zhengrong meant is that the current "Lin Xiuzhi" is actually not Lin Xiuzhi?
What does this mean?
Isn't she still the same person? Why does Dou Zhengrong think that Lin Xiuzhi is no longer the same Lin Xiuzhi?
Seeing that Lu Chen didn't seem to understand what he meant, Dou Zhengrong didn't explain any further.
After all, we are now in the period of destroying the four olds, and we dare not mention anything like monsters and demons. Once we mention it, we will be at risk of being arrested.
Even if he said it, Lu Chen might not believe it.
If one of his best comrades had not told him some things when he was on a mission, and if they had not happened to encounter some things in that deep forest, Dou Zhengrong would never have believed such a bizarre thing.
But since then, he has realized one thing: the world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things.
So often the most outrageous things are likely to be the truth.
"I'm telling you all this because I know you probably still care about your sister Xiuzhi. I want to tell you that you don't have to bother with her recently. I'll think about it after a while and see if I can resolve this matter. If it's resolved, I'll tell you then."
If it were an ordinary person, Dou Zhengrong would naturally be too lazy to tell them about this, but now not only because he knew that Lu Chen had helped Lin Xiuzhi before, but also because in Lin Xiuzhi's heart, he was like a younger brother, Dou Zhengrong would not tell him.
There is another reason, which is naturally because the current "Lin Xiuzhi" has done some disgusting things, and he is worried that Lu Chen will really blame Lin Xiuzhi, so he must explain it to him.
As to why.
That was naturally because he always believed that one day, the real Lin Xiuzhi would come back.
Because he and the children were waiting for her.
.....
The conversation with Dou Zhengrong ended quickly, but these words caused a huge wave in Lu Chen's heart.
He had lived for more than 20 years, and this was indeed the first time he had encountered such a thing.
He really wanted to treat this as a fantasy, but he knew very well that Dou Zhengrong would never joke about such a thing.
So this can only be true.
The "Lin Xiuzhi" now is not Lin Xiuzhi at all!
He was thinking about this matter all the way with a frown on his face. Even when he met Meng Yinyin when he got home, he rarely looked at her.
Meng Yinyin thought he was a little strange and suddenly called him.
"Lu Chen, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
