Chapter 23
Lu Junzhi originally had no intention of living here. He had arranged for Shen Wu to live here, but he was going to go elsewhere.
But looking at the energetic face of the young boy who threw himself at the old man, he changed his mind.
Shen Wu patted Chu Muxi on the head, “Okay, be careful and be careful, don’t to let people see you and laugh at you.”
“No one saw it!” Chu Muxi retorted, then he remembered that there was someone behind him. Embarrassedly, he let go of Shen Wu and stood firm.
“What’s wrong with your hand?” Shen Wu gently held Chu Muxi’s hand, “What’s going on? Why is it injured? Was it Chu Tianhao again?”
“It’s okay, grandpa.” Chu Muxi didn’t care. He said, “I was accidentally pinched by a door. I’ve already applied medicine, and it doesn’t hurt at all.”
Shen Wu touched it lightly in distress, “Is it really alright? Don’t hurt your bones.”
“Grandpa~, there’s still someone here.” Chu Muxi said coquettishly.
Only then did Shen Wu see Lu Junzhi standing there, and he said happily: “Xiao Lu is here too, thank you for sending Xiao Xi back. It’s so late; otherwise, you would be staying here today, and be a guest. We can’t kick the master out, right, haha.” Shen Wu said jokingly.
Chu Muxi was about to say that Lu Junzhi would definitely not agree. With his character, how could he be used to living under the same roof with strangers?
Then I heard Lu Junzhi say, “Okay.”
Huh? What happened? Shouldn’t he say no coldly, then turn around and leave?
Chu Muxi was stunned for a moment, and then met Lu Junzhi’s eyes. When he saw the other person staring at him for a moment, he felt as if his little thoughts were being seen through, and his face suddenly became hot.
Fortunately, the villa was large and had many rooms.
Shen Wu was an elder, but he was a guest after all, so he lived in one of the guest rooms on the second floor. He thought that he hadn’t chatted with his grandson for a long time, so he pulled Chu Muxi and said, “Xiao Xi, you can sleep with grandpa tonight. Grandpa has a lot to say to you.”
After leaving the central island, Chu Tianhao and He Hui would definitely send people to follow and monitor them.
Then they wouldn’t be able to talk together so conveniently. Chu Muxi nodded. “Okay, grandpa, I happen to have a lot to say to you.”
After Chu Muxi finished speaking, he felt that Lu Junzhi glanced at him, and his body tensed up unconsciously.
He thought: Did Lu Junzhi think that he was still scared like a child at this age, so he wants to sleep with his grandpa?
“Thank you, Marshal Lu, for providing us with the place and opportunity.” Chu Muxi hurriedly found a reason for himself.
Shen Wu laughed loudly, “Yes, yes, Xiao Lu, look back, your grandfather had been talking about playing chess. I’ve playing with him; you could take one for me but don’t lose to him on purpose. ”
Lu Junzhi shook his head, “No need, you go to bed early, I’m still busy, call me if you need anything.”
He nodded slightly to Chu Muxi again, and then went to the study on the second floor.
.
Chu Muxi looked at his back, “Grandpa, do you have a good relationship with Marshal Lu’s grandfather?”
Shen Wu snorted, “Who is familiar with that old man?”
But his tone was very familiar. “However, I have watched Xiao Lu grow up. This child has been like this since he was a child and has not changed at all. However, to be the God of War of our empire, he still needs to be able to control his temper. Also, those interstellar pirates are so ferocious; someone else might not be able to control them.”
He helped Shen Wu to the second floor, entered the room, and went to the bathroom to put in hot water first. “Grandpa, you go take a bath first. I’ve put in the hot water.”
“Oh, it’s been many years. We, grandfather and grandson, haven’t been in the same room and talked so well,” Shen Wu sighed.
Chu Muxi’s expression darkened. “I’m sorry, grandpa. I was too stupid in the past. I was deceived by others, made a problem with you, and was so disrespectful to you.”
“I don’t blame you, Xiao Xi; you are still young. It’s my fault that grandpa didn’t take good care of you, alas.”
When he mentioned this, he couldn’t help but think of his daughter, Chu Muxi’s mother, Shen Lan. When he thought of his daughter who died young, he thought of Chu Tianhao, the man who killed Shen Lan.
“It’s all that bastard Chu Tianhao. If he hadn’t been sowing discord between us, how could we be in this situation now?”
Chu Muxi clenched his fists bitterly.
“Grandpa, don’t worry; I will never let him go. It’s all their faults! I won’t let anyone off who has hurt our family.”
Shen Wu patted him on the shoulder. “Xiao Xi, grandpa is here too. Don’t put so much pressure on yourself, grandpa is now satisfied with just hoping that you can live a peaceful and happy life.”
“I know grandpa, and I am the same. I hope grandpa can live a long life and be by my side all the time!” Chu Muxi also softens his voice and spoke.
Shen Wu smiled and said, “Don’t worry; grandpa will also watch our Xiao Xi get married.”
Chu Muxi blushed. “Grandpa, I haven’t thought about things that far yet.” But a figure flashed in his mind.
“Okay, okay, our Xiao Xi is thin-skinned. Grandpa is going to take a bath first. Let’s talk in detail when I comes back.”
While waiting for Shen Wu to take a bath, Chu Muxi suddenly felt a little thirsty, so he went downstairs to pour some water for himself.
.
Walking out of the door, you could vaguely see a ray of light coming from a room at the end.
Was it Lu Junzhi? Could it be was Lu Junzhi’s study?
He heard Lu Junzhi said before that he still had things to do, so he probably still working.
After all, the other party was different from him. He was the Marshal of the Empire, and he should have countless tasks to deal with every day.
But the other party actually found time to pick him up and drop him off, and even arranged a place for his grandpa to live.
Lu Junzhi was really a good person.
Marshal Lu, who accidentally got a good guy card, was looking at the documents sent by his subordinates conscientiously. He didn’t know that his image in someone’s heart had improved to a higher level.
Chu Muxi poured a glass of warm water for his grandfather so he could drink it when he came back from the bath.
After thinking for a while, he made another cup of coffee with his own hands. The only skill he had in his previous life was making coffee.
Carrying the coffee, he walked into Lu Junzhi’s room and knocked on the door. “Marshal Lu? Can I come in?”
There seemed to be a vague answer coming from inside. Chu Muxi thought that the other party agreed, so he held the coffee, opened the door with one hand, and walked in.
As soon as he raised his eyes, he was suddenly stunned.
The man in front of him seemed to have just stepped out of the bathroom. He was only wearing a bath towel, revealing his lean upper body, eight-pack abs, and a perfect figure without any extra fat.
He was raising his hand to wipe his damp hair when he heard the movement and turned his head slightly to look over and stared at him deeply.
At that moment, Chu Muxi felt like he was being targeted, and he swallowed subconsciously.
After a long while, he struggled to look away and said weakly: “Well, I saw the light in your room was still on, so I thought of making you a cup of coffee. I, my coffee is pretty good – so – um- that’s- it-”
‘Oh my God! Why am I so guilty!’
