After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back

Chapter 125 She had never seen Lu Beixiao's tricks before

Meng Nianrui was actually not sure whether she called out Xie Xun's name, but looking at Lu Beixiao's expression, she felt that he should have heard it.

If this kind of thing could be treated as a crime, she would probably be sentenced to death.

Lu Beixiao stared at her steadily, his eyes seemed to see through her, and his expression was more serious than ever before.

But his voice was still calm when he said, "Are you having a nightmare?"

Meng Nianrui propped up her upper body and half sat up. She was so nervous that she had no strength in her hands and her back was shaking a little.

She nodded slightly and glanced at Lu Beixiao timidly, "Actually, I..."

Lu Beixiao didn't intend to let her speak, and even less did he want her to say that name, so he pulled open the quilt and crawled in.

Meng Nianrui looked at Lu Beixiao's reaction and thought that he probably didn't take it to heart, so she breathed a sigh of relief, until...

"Call my name."

"Lu Beixiao?"

"You thought it was the teacher calling my name. Call me again."

"Bei, Beixiao?"

"Scream more."

Meng Nianrui: ...

The next morning, Lu Beixiao got up and went to court, looking refreshed.

Normally, since he was newly married, he should have at least three days off, but as he was about to go to war, he couldn't afford to take so much care.

After reporting to His Majesty in court, we will set off tomorrow.

Only after he was dressed did Meng Nianrui slowly wake up.

She covered half of her face with a quilt, and her face was red.

Last night, Lu Beixiao didn't do anything out of the ordinary because he was concerned that she was still not well.

But she had never seen Lu Beixiao's routine before. He clearly did nothing, yet it seemed like he did everything.

The faint noise she made attracted Lu Beixiao's attention. Lu Beixiao glanced at her and said casually, "Sleep a little longer. Wait for me to finish my court and then we can go and pay respects to my parents together."

This was exactly what Meng Nianrui wanted, she hadn't gotten enough sleep.

She said "hmm" and the room fell silent again.

Looking at Lu Beixiao's broad back and his strong body like an ox, Meng Nianrui fell into deep thought. This man would be her husband in the future.

If it was a month ago, she would never have thought of it. But that's the fact.

Normally, a newlywed wife should get up and serve her husband, but judging from Lu Beixiao's appearance, she shouldn't be needed.

But the polite words still need to be said.

She said softly, "Have breakfast before you leave."

Seeing that he cared about him, Lu Beixiao curled his lips and replied casually: "Okay, I know, you go to sleep, I'm leaving first."

When he arrived at the palace gate, Lu Beixiao met many colleagues. Everyone knew that he had just got married yesterday, and they couldn't help but tease him.

"Brother Lu, you're here so early today."

"It's still worth it for a newlywed."

Lu Beixiao's good brother Jiang Xizhou even patted him on the shoulder and said:

"This person is different when he is happy. He looks very energetic."

As they were talking, a figure walked over from a distance, and the teasing voices suddenly stopped.

That man was none other than Lu Beixiao’s newlywed wife’s ex-husband, Xie Xun.

A group of people looked uncomfortable and looked at Lu Beixiao, feeling embarrassed for him.

But they didn't know that Lu Beixiao was not afraid of meeting Xie Xun, he even wanted to jump in front of him.

He continued what everyone had just said: "Of course I am full of energy. My wife was afraid that I would be hungry, so she made me eat before leaving. I am so full."

Seeing that he was not shy about the topic and wanted to expand it, Jiang Xizhou gave him a way out and followed the topic by asking, "Did your wife make it for you personally?"

After hearing this, Lu Beixiao said calmly, "That's about right."

When everyone heard this, they all started to cheer, "You are so lucky."

Lu Beixiao grinned but did not comment.

After he finished showing off, he caught a glimpse of Xie Xun passing by, who was watching the fun and shouted, "Why does Minister Xie look so bad? Did he miss breakfast?"
