Chapter 23

When Lu Jingyun and Joey returned home, Ruan Xiaoxiao was not there.

But this is not surprising for Joey, Xiaoxiao has always been very lively, and she can't stay at home honestly all the time. It is said that she is here to treat broken love, but it is better to say that she is looking for a man in another place.

Joey didn't understand it before, but later, she understood and got used to it.

When Lu Jingyun went to take a shower, she took the time to call Xiaoxiao.

Listening to the noisy voice on the other end of the phone, I wanted to know where it was, and asked her a few words to let her come back early, and hung up.

In the evening, Joey was sitting by the bed, and Lu Jingyun took a towel to help her dry her hair. Joey is still a little uneasy when he thinks of what happened today.

"Husband, that surname Mo is really not a good thing. He came to Jiangcheng to play with women, and he looked down on people. This kind of person is really annoying."

Lu Jingyun put down the towel and combed her long hair with his fingers a few times before he picked her up and put her on his lap.

"Don't be angry, I don't care what he said."

Joey flattened his mouth and didn't say anything unpleasant. Remembering that he said he was from Kyoto, she didn't know much about it.

"You grew up in Kyoto? Tell me about any interesting things in Kyoto. Although it is the capital, I haven't been there yet."

Lu Jingyun held her back with one hand, and bent the other hand behind her head, leaning against the head of the bed lazily, "I'll take you to see it in the future. In addition to the famous places we all know, I'll take you to those places. Great place that no one else knows about.”

"Well, good. Then what kind of family do you have in Kyoto?"

Lu Jingyun's eyes flickered slightly, "There are a lot of clansmen in the family, so I can't say it all at the moment. You'll know when we go."

"Wow—a lot of people?" Joey frowned for a moment, then smiled, "My family is simple. However, as I told you, I was adopted by them. Dear."

"I know, you will have me in the future."

Lu Jingyun already knew all the information about this girl from the time he decided to marry her. The abandoned orphan was adopted by the Nan family couple at the age of six. His life was flat but not very happy. When he was thirteen years old, the Nan family couple had Her own son, her happiness is even more distant. Until she went to high school, she lived outside the school, and then she hardly returned to Nan's house. Living expenses and tuition fees are basically earned by her own work-study program.

She who has lived through hardships but never complains, is the easiest to be content and happy, and the little things will make her happy for a long time.

"Well, with you."

Joey's heart was warm, his body leaned into his embrace, and the corners of his lips smiled warmly.

She is very happy, and there is no time when she will be happier than having Lu Jingyun's home now.

"I'll take you to my house tomorrow."

At least the couple raised her, and even if they didn't have feelings, they should let them see her husband.

And she will slowly open all her thoughts to him.

...

Joey's hometown is in a small county town under Jiangcheng. It is a prosperous county town. It is extremely convenient to go back by car.

They got up early in the morning, bought gifts, got in the car and arrived at the county seat, it was only ten o'clock. Joey took Lu Jingyun to the bus to his community, and it took 20 minutes to arrive.

Joey's adoptive parents were both small civil servants, and his mother had long since retired, and even running a small supermarket with pension can be considered to make money, and his adoptive father is still in office. The two entered the community with large and small bags and went upstairs.

The one who opened the door was Joey's adoptive father, Qiao Xingjian, who welcomed them into the house warmly.

"Dad, this is my husband Lu Jingyun. Jingyun, this is our dad."

"Dad," Lu Jingyun called Qiao Xingjian, Qiao's father was very happy, looked at this son-in-law, and was a little surprised that Joey had a good eye for picking this son-in-law.

Then he greeted them to sit down, "Dad, where are my mother and Xiaojun?"

"You also know that your mother's supermarket is inseparable from people. Xiaojun's kid goes out to play on weekends, so don't worry about them. Today, the three of us are going to a restaurant for dinner, and Xiao Lu and I have a good drink."

Joey cast an apologetic look at Lu Jingyun, Lu Jingyun shook his head and smiled.

Father Qiao chatted with Lu Jingyun and asked about his age, his job, his family...

These Lu Jingyun answered one by one, and there was no disrespect. Father Qiao also asked about Joey's situation. Later, at noon, they went out to eat with Father Nan.

The meal was a harmonious conversation. Father Qiao seemed very happy and pulled Lu Jingyun to drink a lot. After returning home, Father Qiao couldn't bear it and fell asleep.

Joey rested Lu Jingyun on the sofa, and the two talked quietly.

"They are all such people, don't worry about it. We will basically not come back in the future, and they won't welcome us much anyway."

Joey's tone was very calm, probably accustomed to this kind of treatment.

However, Lu Jingyun felt distressed.

"Let's go in a while and go back to our home."

He knew that for Joey, this place was not a home, and only the two of them's nest in Jiangcheng was her real home.
