A female character in a book, regaining her luck

Chapter 157 is missing!

Lu Fengshi held the note given by Mu Chaosheng for a long time, not knowing what to do.

He paced around the room, trying to ease his anxiety.

He picked up the phone and put it down again, repeatedly.

Finally, he picked up his phone and punched in the number on the paper.

But the phone only rang once, and he quickly hung up the phone, stood up, walked to the window and took a deep breath.

After a while, he dialed the phone again. His heart beat faster with the rhythm of the ringing tone, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Hello?"

The moment a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the receiver, Lu Fengshi hung up the phone again.

Gu Huanyou looked at his phone, frowned and shook his head.

She had just returned from the company, exhausted. Before she had time to catch her breath, she received several strange calls. The phone number was the same, and they were all from China.

Although Gu Huanyou felt a little strange, he didn't take it to heart.

She heated up a quick meal and just sat down to eat when her cell phone rang again. It was the same number.

"Hello, who are you?"

Silence, and another long silence on the other end.

Gu Huanyou looked at her phone and found nothing wrong with it, so she asked again.

Although there was no sound, she seemed to hear some breathing sounds, which proved that there was indeed someone on the other end of the phone.

Gu Huanyou felt puzzled and thought that maybe the person on the other side was a pervert.

She didn't panic. She had lived alone for a long time and this was no big deal to her.

Gu Huanyou was about to hang up the phone when the person on the other end of the line finally spoke: "Youyou, it's me..."

The moment he heard the voice, Gu Huanyou stared in disbelief and clenched the fork in his hand.

"what's up?"

Lu Fengshi heard the alertness in his daughter's tone. He paused, said only one sentence and hung up the phone.

Although there was no sound on the other end of the phone, Gu Huanyou still maintained the posture of answering the phone.

The man's second and last words, "Take good care of yourself out there," echoed in her mind and could not be shaken off.

This sentence made Gu Huanyou inexplicably irritated. After she came to her senses, she threw her cell phone on the table and desperately stuffed cold food into her mouth until she couldn't swallow it anymore.

Perhaps I was choked, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

She didn't know what the man had been through in the country, but she knew what the call meant.

It means that that person's decades of persistence and stubbornness, decades of sacrifice and regret, decades of accumulated fragility and honor have finally merged into one in the time that can never be reversed and the life that cannot be redeemed. His life is finally more than just the side he thinks it is!

But at this point, what’s the use of knowing all this?

At this point, what's the point of telling her "take good care of yourself out there"?

But it doesn't make sense, why is she so sad, why is she crying?

She doesn't know, she doesn't want to know, and she doesn't want to think.

Gu Huanyou rubbed his face and eyes, stood up, put away the dishes, and cleaned the house again.

Still not satisfied after doing all this, she turned on her computer and continued working, as if she was a different person from the tired girl who had just got off work.

But she was lost in thought while looking at the planning proposals on the computer, and after a long time, she hadn't finished reviewing any of the proposals.

Suddenly, she stood up and began to search for the cell phone she had thrown aside.

She jumped up and down like an anxious cat. The phone was clearly on the side table next to the sofa, but she just couldn't see it or find it.

"Where's the cell phone? Where's the cell phone? Oh! A computer will work, too!"

She sat back in front of the computer, opened the ticket booking software, checked the worksheet, and ordered a flight back home.

After Lu Fengshi hung up the phone, he stood there for a long time, looking a little helpless.

It took a long time before calm was restored.

Suddenly, the landline rang, startling him. He picked up the phone and heard Lu Huanchu's voice: "Dad, is Ah Chao with you?"

Lu Huanchu waited and waited at home, but Mu Chaosheng never came back.

Before leaving tonight, she told him that she wanted to talk to the old man about something different today and would be late.

But it's already past three in the morning, more than an hour later than usual, so he should be back even if it's later.

The more Lu Huanchu thought about it, the more worried he became, so he called Lu Fengshi directly to ask.

Lu Fengshi realized that something was wrong: "No, she went back a long time ago."

"Dad, I'm hanging up first."

Lu Huanchu immediately went out and looked for someone along the route she usually took.

He kept thinking that they were at home and nothing would happen. The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. He originally walked and looked around, but finally he just ran.

Lu Fengshi remembered how Mu Chaosheng staggered while holding the flowerpot today, and he became worried.

When he just came out of the room and wanted to look for Uncle Fang, he found that Uncle Fang was already standing in front of the door.

"Sir, the young master has already told me. I have already asked the patrol officers and the control room to find someone. Don't worry."

Having said that, Lu Fengshi couldn't sit still: "Let's go out and take a look."

When Lu Fengshi and Fang Shu were about to reach the garden, someone in the control room sent a letter saying that they saw Mu Chaosheng entering the garden, and the people patrolling the courtyard soon followed.

Just as Lu Haochu reached a gate outside the garden forest, he received a call from Uncle Fang.

A large group of people started searching in the garden.

When Lu Huanchu saw Lu Fengshi appear in the garden, he was startled, but his mind and eyes were full of Mu Chaosheng, and he was in no mood to think about why the old man came along.

Mu Chaosheng was finally found in a pavilion in the garden.

Lu Huanchu ran over quietly, bent over to check, and only breathed a sigh of relief after finding that Mu Chaosheng had just fallen asleep in the recliner.

Uncle Fang gave a few instructions and the people who were looking for the person dispersed.

Lu Huanchu didn't have the heart to wake Mu Chaosheng up. When he picked her up, perhaps because she felt uncomfortable, she opened her hazy eyes and called out in a daze, "Doctor Lu..."

"I'm here..." Lu Huanchu was actually a little angry in his heart, but when he heard Mu Chaosheng's voice, he was only happy that she was safe and sound.

Mu Chaosheng glanced around and saw what seemed to be Lu Fengshi and Uncle Fang in the moonlight. Suddenly she came to her senses: Is this a garden?

"Put me down." Mu Chaosheng rubbed his face, "Dad, Uncle Fang, why are you here?"

"Take a walk!" Lu Fengshi replied.

"walk?"

Mu Chaosheng looked at Uncle Fang inquiringly, and Uncle Fang laughed and said, "It's a walk."

She looked at Lu Huanchu again. Lu Huanchu knew that his wife had not really woken up yet, so he muttered a few words to himself.

Mu Chaosheng cried out, completely awake, and said in a very embarrassed tone, "Dad, it's late, you and Uncle Fang should go back and get some rest!"

As Lu Fengshi turned to leave, he said, "Young people should also take care of their health and go to the hospital when they have time."

"Thank you for your concern, Dad!"

After Mu Chaosheng watched Lu Fengshi walk away, he bumped into Lu Huanchu and said, "It's all your fault!"

Lu Huanchu felt very aggrieved: "Why are you blaming me?"

"Who told you to look for me in such a big way? Now everyone thinks I'm lost in my own home! How embarrassing!"

"I don't care. If you do this again next time, I'll make a bigger scene!" Lu Haochu became stubborn.

Mu Chaosheng calmed down Lu Huanchu and said, "Okay, I was wrong. I didn't know how to appreciate a good person. I will never let you lose me in the future, okay?"

“That’s more like it!” Lu Huanchu stroked Mu Chaosheng’s hair, as if he was stroking a puppy’s head, and looked at Mu Chaosheng with a smile, “What a good puppy!”

"You are the dog!"

"You said you were a puppy, why don't you admit it now?"

"When did I say that?"

"Then tell me what would you say to me, that you don't know how to appreciate a good person?"

"You are not Lu Dongbin!"

The two of them chatted with each other, and the way home was filled with laughter.
