Chapter 1151
Chapter 1151 No One Will Be Better than You (1)
Lu Boyan still knew Mu Sijue well.
This time, once Xu Youning’s secrets were exposed, Mu Sijue would definitely save her even if he had to sacrifice his life.
Because he knew that once the secrets were exposed, Xu Youning would have no chance to survive while she was kept by Kang Ruicheng.
After Kang Ruicheng knew the truth, he would use all means to torture Xu Youning.
Xu Youning would wish that she were dead.
When he was done torturing Xu Youning, Kang Ruicheng would kill her and then tell Mu Sijue that Xu Youning had disappeared from the world. Even if Mu Sijue had incredible abilities, he would not be able to find Xu Youning again.
When Tang Yulan was kidnapped by Kang Ruicheng, Mu Sijue even promised Kang Ruicheng that he would exchange himself for Tang Yulan for the sake of Xu Youning.
At that time, Mu Sijue clearly knew that once he went over, he might never come back.
But he still agreed to do so.
This time, Mu Sijue probably would not hesitate too much either.
Lu Boyan could not watch as Mu Sijue took the risk.
“Sijue, calm down.” Lu Boyan’s voice was a little depressed. “Maybe we can think of a better way.”
In fact, Lu Boyan knew very well that it was their only way to confront Kang Ruicheng head-on.
In addition, they had no other countermeasures, and Kang Ruicheng would not give them any chance to think of other countermeasures.
However, this could not be the reason for Mu Sijue to take risks.
Mu Sijue thought for a long time and finally said slowly, “Boyan, if it were you, what would you choose?”
Lu Boyan didn’t speak.
It took him a second to believe that he did hear the confusion in Mu Sijue’s tone.
He and Mu Sijue had experienced some difficult choices along the way.
Mu Sijue’s brain was like a working machine, which always kept calm.
No matter what happened, he could always make up his mind at the first possible moment.
But now, he was at a loss.
Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t have his own opinion, but rather that he was nervous.
He was afraid that after the operation, he would not only fail to save Xu Youning but also push her into another abyss.
He would rather accept the trials in hell than let Xu Youning be in any danger.
He was not really curious when he asked Lu Boyan what he would choose.
He just needed some suggestions.
Lu Boyan’s voice was particularly calm. “I would also think that I must take action.” After a pause, he slowly got to the point. “But Sijue, at this time, we should keep calm.”
Mu Sijue’s face was tightened, and his eyes were as deep as the night sky. He did not speak for a long time.
Of course, he knew that he should keep calm.
However, there was an opportunity to bring Xu Youning back. How could he calm down?
Lu Boyan looked at the time and said, “Come by my house tomorrow with Bai Tang.”
Mu Sijue just replied with a faint “alright”.
Lu Boyan hung up the phone, looked up, and met Jian’an’s eyes again.
He smiled, stroked her head, and changed the topic. “If I remember correctly, you told me in the morning that you would cook something delicious for me in the afternoon?”
“Eh? You still remember that?”
Su Jian’an was really surprised.
Lu Boyan had been very busy recently. Su Jian’an had thought that he would not remember such trivial things.
She was surprised that in fact, no matter how trivial the matter was, Lu Boyan almost remembered it all.
It was really amazing of him to have an excellent memory.
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian’an deeply and whispered, “Jian’an, I remember everything related to you.”
Su Jian’an didn’t say anything.
It would be a lie if Su Jian’an said that she didn’t find it sweet.
Her beautiful big eyes were shining, and there was a sweet smile in them. She looked at Lu Boyan affectionately and said, “What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you!”
When it came to food, Lu Boyan had always been picky about the taste rather than the types.
He liked the taste of the food made by Su Jian’an the most.
In other words, he liked everything made by Su Jian’an.
Lu Boyan simply said, “You can make whatever you want.”
Su Jian’an couldn’t help questioning. “Are you sure?”
“Uh-huh.” Lu Boyan kissed Su Jian’an on the forehead. “As long as it’s you, anything will do.”
Su Jian’an pursed her lips, and there was a touch of sweetness in her eyes that could not be resisted. It flowed out, which made her look soft and moving.
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian’an, and his voice had lowered. He said meaningfully, “Jian’an, if you don’t go now, I’ll have to eat something else for dinner…”
Su Jian’an was speechless.
After thinking for a while, she soon understood what Lu Boyan meant.
She blushed and scolded him in a low voice, “Pervert!”
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian’an and then at Xiangyi. He said meaningfully, “Jian’an, we need to pay attention to the lecturing on our kids.”
Su Jian’an didn’t say anything.
After thinking for a long time, she realized that Lu Boyan meant that she should not scold him for being a pervert in front of Xiangyi.
“I can’t believe this…
“Boyan often acts like a pervert to me in front of the two little kids.
“When he does it, he will say that Xiyu and Xiangyi are still young, so it doesn’t matter since they don’t understand.
“I just called him a ‘pervert’, but he actually reminded me to pay attention to the influence?
“What double standards…”
Su Jian’an handed Xiangyi to Lu Boyan. “I don’t want to talk to you!” After that, she walked to the kitchen without looking back.
Lu Boyan held his daughter in his arms and looked at Su Jian’an’s figure. After a long while, he smiled and looked down at the little girl in his arms. “Your mommy seems to be angry. What should I do?”
Xiangyi yawned disrespectfully as if she was saying that it was her father’s business to make her mother angry, and she had nothing to do with it.
Lu Boyan shook his head helplessly. “Fine. You can go to sleep now.”
Xiangyi wriggled in Lu Boyan’s arms. In the end, she shrank back like a caterpillar, turned her head, buried her face in Lu Boyan’s chest, and closed her eyes.
After a while, the little girl fell asleep completely. Her breathing became long and even, and her obedient look made people want to dote on her to the core.
Seeing that Xiangyi had fallen asleep, Aunt Liu asked in a low voice, “Sir, do you want me to take Xiangyi back to her room?”
“No, thanks.” Lu Boyan’s eyes remained fixed on his daughter’s face. “I’ll do it.”
Aunt Liu knew how much Lu Boyan loved Xiangyi. Before she spoke, she had already known that she would most likely be rejected. She smiled and went up to help Lu Boyan open the door.
Lu Boyan was afraid of waking up the little girl, so he walked slowly along the way.
He had a lot of things to deal with, but his time was limited.
Therefore, he did not like to waste time, especially on the road.
However, time did not seem to be so precious to him at this time.
In addition to Su Jian’an, the little girl in his arms was the most precious person in his world.
As long as he held Xiangyi in his arms, he was willing to go on, even if there was no end to this road.
Unfortunately, every path in this world had its end.
Lu Boyan took Xiangyi back to the children’s room and soon settled the little girl down.
Xiangyi was lying in her crib, and when she turned her head, she could see her brother.
She seemed to be very satisfied with the environment. After lying down, she sighed with satisfaction, raised her little hands, and put them beside her head, sleeping soundly and sweetly.
Lu Boyan tucked the little girl in and went downstairs to Su Jian’an.
Su Jian’an was wearing a blue apron and picking vegetables.
Lu Boyan walked over directly. “Do you need any help?”
“Yeah, I do!” Su Jian’an handed a handful of celery to Lu Boyan. “This is your task.”
Lu Boyan had mastered various skills in picking vegetables. He took the celery, removed the leaves, and asked, “Is there any reward after the task is completed?”
Su Jian’an was getting water. Hearing this, she turned around and looked at Lu Boyan.
He hadn’t had time to change his clothes yet, and he was still wearing a white shirt and trousers that he wore for business meetings.
For convenience, he rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, revealing his handsome and attractive muscles.
Looking at his slender arms, she could see his sculpted outline. The cold and perfect lines made his facial features look even more attractive.
He lowered his head slightly, looking so sexy that it overwhelmed her.
Su Jian’an suddenly recalled the scene of Lu Boyan’s arms wrapping around her. She could feel the strength of his arms and even the heat from his shirt.
All of this carried indescribable allure to her.
Thinking of this, Su Jian’an’s cheeks gradually became hotter, and her cheeks were slightly flushed.
Lu Boyan noticed Su Jian’an’s gaze and looked up at her. Su Jian’an suddenly felt guilty and immediately looked away.
Su Jian’an didn’t know what Lu Boyan would suspect if she acted like this.
Lu Boyan called Su Jian’an, “Jian’an.”
“Hmm?” Su Jian’an pretended as if nothing had happened and looked into Lu Boyan’s eyes. “What’s wrong?”
Lu Boyan said lightly, “If you want to see me, you can look at me openly.”
“I…”
Su Jian’an subconsciously wanted to say that she didn’t peek.
However, after uttering only one word, she suddenly realized that if she say that, it would reveal the fact that she liked to peek at Lu Boyan.
“This is Boyan’s trick. I can’t fall for it!”
Su Jian’an calmly continued to say, “I’ve always been looking at you openly! We’re married, and our relationship is protected by law. If I can’t look at you openly, who would get to do it?”
Lu Boyan changed the topic suddenly. “Jian’an, do you mind when others look at me?”
“I can’t stop that from happening.” Su Jian’an looked at Lu Boyan and said unhurriedly, “I only mind when you look at others.”
Lu Boyan had just finished picking the celery leaves.
He handed the celery to Su Jian’an and said as if nothing had happened, “It’s done.”
“Thank you.”
Su Jian’an was caught off guard and took the celery. Before she could hold it firmly, her wrist was grabbed by Lu Boyan.
Lu Boyan pulled her into his arms with a little force.
Su Jian’an felt that she was smelling Lu Boyan’s scent again, and his heat also came through the shirt.
Smack!
Su Jian’an did not catch the celery in time and it fell into the sink.
Su Jian’an’s limbs were a little stiff, and her cheeks were hotter. She forced herself to stay calm and looked at Lu Boyan. “What’s the matter?”
