Standing here with her, she can't see Xu Huaishen and Ruan Meng.

But she still lowered her voice and said, "So in the future, we still have a lot of time to watch movies and go shopping together." ”

Lin Mo was relieved.

Ruan Zhi continued to pack his things.

She thought that her voice was small enough, and since Ruan Meng had been talking to Xu Huaishen, he shouldn't be able to hear the conversation between her and Lin Mo.

But Xu Huaishen, on her side, listened slightly sideways for a few seconds when she spoke just now.

When he heard the sentence "I won't leave this time", the corners of Xu Huaishen's mouth rose significantly.

Ruan Meng's little hand poked at his beard, pulling his thoughts back.

As soon as his gaze fell on Ruan Meng's face, the little guy also raised his eyes to look at him.

One big and one small, four eyes facing each other.

The atmosphere was slightly condensed for a moment.

Then, Ruan Meng asked, "Are you my father?"

“......”

Xu Huaishen really didn't expect that Ruan Meng would suddenly ask like this.

For a while, facing this innocent little face, I really didn't know how to answer.

Xu Huaishen asked rhetorically: "Mengmeng hopes yes or no?"

Ruan Meng shook her head, "I don't want Uncle Xu to be." ”

The answer he got deviated from what he expected, and Xu Huaishen's heart sank, "Why?"

"I like Uncle Xu. The little guy had a tangle in his eyes, "But Daddy is a bad guy." ”

Xu Huaishen was puzzled, "Why is Dad a bad person? Who told you?"

"Nobody told me. The little guy said, "Daddy left me and Mommy behind, he's a bad guy." ”

Xu Huai was deeply aware.

In the little one's heart, it is her mother who has always grown up with her.

And the role of dad has always been vacant.

When she was growing up, he wasn't there when they needed him.

So Ruan Meng likes Xu Huaishen, but she hates her father, who has never met.

Xu Huaishen never thought that Ruan Meng's little heart would be so sensitive.

He thought that as long as he gave his time and effort to accompany him, he would make up for it.

For Ruan Meng, it is not a difficult thing to accept him.

But now it seems that he was wrong......

Leaving from Junshan Lake Villa, Lin Mo stood at the door, teary eyes.

The car was far away, and she was still standing in the wind.

Rong Lie walked up from behind her, and as he draped his coat over her shoulders, he gently hugged her into his arms.

"It's all your fault. Lin Mo said with red eyes.

Rong Lie: "...... Well, blame me. ”

......

I thought I was going directly to the hotel, but when the car drove into the familiar villa area, Ruan Zhi's heart suddenly swelled with a dull pain.

This is where she and Xu Huaishen started three years ago.

That luxurious villa area: Aqua Blue Bay.

Back then, Minglang's house was here.

When Ruan Zhi borrowed it, Xu Huaishen happened to live next door.

Later, she left Cloud City, and heard Minglang say that the villa here was also sold.

As she left, she thought she would never come back for the rest of her life.

She thought, maybe for Xu Huaishen, he was the same.

So when the car drove into the familiar courtyard, Ruan Zhi would not be able to come to his senses.

It wasn't until Xu Huaishen hugged Ruan Meng out of the car and stood outside knocking on the window on her side that she came back to her senses.

Pulling the car door down and standing on the soft lawn, Ruan Zhi looked at the villa in front of him.

The sun shining strongly overhead made her head a little dizzy.

Some scenes from three years ago flashed through her mind like a movie.

Xu Huaishen had already taken the suitcase, held Ruan Meng in one hand, and walked towards the house.

Ruan Meng slowly followed, but her eyes were attracted by a large group of bright roses in the courtyard next door.

It seems that there has really been a change of owner.

A lot of things in the yard have changed, and it's very different from before.

Standing at the door of Xu Huaishen's house, Ruan Zhi subconsciously moved his eyes to the courtyard of Xu Huaishen's house.

Comparison of the two yards.

Xu Huaishen's side is still the same as three years ago.

Little has changed.

Not only in the yard, but also when I entered the house, I found that there was really no change here.

Xu Huaishen's home is still exactly the same as it was three years ago.

Even the set of cutlery used is still the same as before.

Xu Huaishen walked in with Ruan Meng in his arms, and after walking a few steps, he heard Ruan Zhi speak: "I...... What shoes do you wear?"

Xu Huaishen paused slightly, turned around, and glanced at the shoe cabinet, "Let's find a pair in it yourself." ”

Ruan Zhi stood still and didn't move, she actually didn't mean that.

"Mengmeng and I can stay in a hotel......"

Xu Huaishen said bluntly: "There is no money. ”

“...... I can go out on my own. ”

Xu Huaishen asked her rhetorically, "Does living here make you so reluctant?" or ......?"

He paused, then continued, "Do you think there's a past here that makes it hard for you to look at it directly?"

Ruan Zhi was stunned for a while, and it took a long time to react to the thorn in his words, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xu Huaishen first: "Don't worry, I won't do anything." ”

Ruan Zhi: "......"

This seems to imply that she is thinking too much.

At the end of the exchange, Xu Huaishen was still standing there, with a pair of inky eyes, looking at her quietly.

Ruan Zhi suddenly remembered what Xu Huaishen said when she asked her to go back to Liangcheng.

He said, if you refuse to take Ruan Meng back, then I will come to grab custody.

At that time, Ruan Zhi's eyes were red, and he retorted emotionally: "Xu Huaishen, why did you rob her? You didn't care about Mengmeng at all, and you didn't even know about her existence, why did you say that you wanted to snatch her back as soon as you appeared now?"

Xu Huaishen said, giving birth to my child behind my back, what do you say I should do?

Ruan Zhi has consulted a lawyer, and generally both parents fight for custody, and the mother's chances of winning are better. But some special factors are not ruled out, and Xu Huaishen doesn't know about this, which is very unfavorable to her.

The lawyer told her that if she insisted on fighting, she had only a 50 percent chance of winning, or less.

Because in a positive sense, she is unreasonable to secretly give birth to the other party's child.

Moreover, if she really tore her face with Xu Huaishen, what she was most worried about was that Ruan Meng would be hurt.

So Xu Huaishen's purpose is very simple, he is here for Ruan Meng.

In other words, as long as she agrees to give Ruan Meng to him, she can be free at any time.

"Mommy. ”

Seeing that she was always standing there, Ruan Meng shouted.

Ruan Zhi came back to her senses, she smiled at her daughter, and then opened the shoe cabinet.

The inside of the shoe cabinet is clearly layered, and shoes are placed on each floor.

As far as the eye can see, they are all men's shoes.

There are not many of them, and the styles are simple, but they are all customized by big brands, which is very in line with Xu Huaishen's personal aura.

Ruan Zhi took out a pair of men's slippers from inside, changed them into them, and walked in.

The room is on the second floor.

The master bedroom is connected to the study, and the guest room is on the south side.

Ruan Zhi and Ruan Meng live here.

Xu Huaishen lives alone, there is no maid at home, and there are housekeepers who come to clean every day, so the guest rooms are also very clean and tidy, and there is nothing to clean and tidy.

What Ruan Zhi brought back was a simple change of clothes, and it was not complicated to clean up a little.

Ruan Meng arrived in a new environment and was full of curiosity about everything, but she was timid and didn't dare to go too far from Ruan Zhi, so she kept running around the room.

Ran from the balcony to the bathroom, to the changing room, to see here, to look there.

Finally, the little guy walked back to Ruan Zhi, "Mommy." ”

Ruan Zhi will always be the most gentle and patient with her daughter.

She squatted down and touched her daughter's little face with her palm, "What's wrong?"

Ruan Meng took her hand and asked, "Are we going to live here?"

"Hmm. ”

"What about Uncle Ming, when are we going to find him?" Ruan Meng looked forward to it, "Uncle Ming said that he was going to pick me up, and he also said that he would take me to see the sea whales." ”

These are all promises made in the past.

Liangcheng has the largest aquarium in the country, and when Ruan Meng saw the poster, she especially wanted to see it.

She still remembers.

In Ruan Meng's heart, she may think that this is just a trip.

When the trip comes to an end, she wants to go out, go to the aquarium, and see the whales.

Faced with her daughter's yearning, Ruan Zhi couldn't tell the truth, so she could only tell her, "Mengmeng, Uncle Ming has been a little busy lately, so he may not have time to accompany Mengmeng to see the sea whales." ”

The brilliance in Ruan Meng's eyes dissipated, "Then if you don't go to see the sea whale, can you go to Uncle Ming?"

"Moe ......"

Ruan Meng took her hand and said with a sincere look in her eyes: "Mommy, I miss Uncle Ming......"

I don't know if it was influenced by the little guy, hearing her say this, Ruan Zhi also had a sour nose. In the end, I touched her head helplessly, "Meng Meng, I'll come to see you when Uncle Ming is busy and forgets." ”

"Well, cute and good. The little one solemnly assured.

Ruan Zhi sighed and reached out to pick her up.

Outside the door, Xu Huaishen stood quietly for two minutes, then quietly turned around and left.

Ruan Meng kept clamoring to find Minglang, and at first, Ruan Zhi could still say that he was busy and flickered.

But this trick didn't work later, and the little guy didn't listen to her at all, so he cried to find Minglang.

Ruan Zhi couldn't help it, "Then shall we call Uncle Ming?"

When the little one hears it, it's okay.

Anyway, she just wants to know her uncle, and she can't meet each other, so it's okay to say a few words.

Ruan Zhi picked her up, sat down on the windowsill, and then stood in front of her, took out her mobile phone, and dialed Minglang's phone.

The phone rang for a long time and no one answered, and finally it was automatically cut off because it was too long.

Ruan Zhi hit another one, but still didn't answer.

Thinking of that day, Minglang said, Ruan Zhi, I will never care about you in the future.

He had never said such a thing, and no matter how she refused in the past three years, he could be resurrected with full blood.

This time it seems to be a real disappointment.

Ruan Zhi looked down at his phone and smiled wryly.

Yes, she's really disappointing.

Said okay and didn't look back, she replied.

said that there would be no more involvement, there were.

"Mommy. Ruan Meng's little hand gently held her wrist, "Did you quarrel with Uncle Ming?"

"Nope. Ruan Zhi smiled, "Uncle Ming is just too busy. ”

The little guy pouted, and there were tears on his eyelashes, "Well, I'm not going to bother him." ”

Looking at her daughter, Ruan Zhi had mixed feelings in her heart, she raised her hand and gently hugged her daughter into her arms, and patted her thin little shoulder, "Meng Meng is so good." ”

Lunch was made by Xu Huaishen.

Ruan Meng was watching TV in the living room, Ruan Zhi thought about it, raised his feet and walked into the kitchen.

He was cooking soup with his back to her, not noticing anyone coming in.

Ruan Zhi stood behind him for a while, and when she saw him holding a soup spoon in one hand and reaching for the bowl on the stove with the other, she subconsciously stepped forward, picked up the bowl and handed it to him.

Xu Huaishen made a move, floated his head, only glanced at her, and turned back to continue cooking soup.

Ruan Zhi didn't leave, just stood next to him, pondered his wording a little, and spoke: "Xu Huaishen, can we talk?"

She is willing to talk calmly, of course, for the sake of her daughter.

Xu Huai was deeply aware and nodded, "Say it." ”

"It was my decision to secretly give birth to Meng Meng at the beginning. Seriously, I didn't think about making you responsible or anything, and I didn't think about telling you about it, and you also have a son, can you let Meng Meng go?"

Xu Huaishen quietly sprinkled salt in the soup and continued to busy himself, as if he hadn't heard her words at all.

Ruan Zhi took a breath and continued: "Mengmeng will not be happy when she returns to the Xu family. ”

Ruan Meng is a girl, and for the Xu family, it is not very attractive.

Moreover, the Xu family is so difficult to get along with, will they accept Ruan Meng?

Of course not!

Xu Huaishen covered the pot, turned on the simmer to cook the soup, wiped his hands with a towel, looked back at her, his tone was still cold and casual, "Who told you that she was going back to Xu's house?"

“......”

Don't go back to Xu's house...... Don't you want to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?

Xu Huaishen threw away the towel, and suddenly raised his foot and took a step closer, "Ruan Zhi, do you have any misunderstanding about this?"

“？”

Misunderstand?

What misconception?

Isn't he going back to Ruan Meng?

also said that Ruan Meng should be surnamed Xu, not Ruan?

Is it because she doesn't understand it thoroughly?

However, if she misunderstood, then how could he explain that he let them come back?

Ruan Zhi's eyes fell on Xu Huaishen's face, waiting for his reply.

Xu Huaishen also stared at her quietly, and did not speak at this moment.

The two looked at each other quietly for a moment, during which only the stove fire was burning.

After a while, Ruan Zhi felt that he might not tell her, and was about to lower his head, but Xu Huaishen suddenly reached over, and his slender fingers pinched her chin at once.

Ruan Zhi was forced to raise his head, and his gaze met him again: "......"

"Ruan Zhi, what happened three years ago, you don't have anything to explain to me?"

Ruan Zhi was stunned and stared at Xu Huaishen.

The two of them stood like this, and the height difference was obvious.

I don't know if it's her delusion, but I always feel that although he has lost weight, he seems to be much taller than three years ago.

At this moment, Xu Huaishen leaned down slightly, and a pair of eyes sparkled in the light staring at her, "I secretly took medicine behind my back, obviously I didn't want my child, but when I left, I deliberately gave birth to Ruan Meng." Ruan Zhi, what else are you secretly doing behind my back?

"......" Ruan Zhi was stunned, "What do you secretly take medicine?

Xu Huaishen's eyes were like burning, sprinkled on her face, but after all, he didn't dig deeper.

After a while, as if he had seen enough of her face, his fingers withdrew, and the person turned away, turning off the heat and serving the soup.

Just throw out one sentence, "You know in your heart." ”

Ruan Zhi: "......"

She really didn't understand.

I felt that I was forced to come back, which was enough of grievance.

Now she was finally able to calm down and talk to him calmly, but he had this attitude.

Ruan Zhi exploded, sneered and said, "Three years ago, who was more noble than whom? Didn't you also help the Ruan family lie to me together?"

Xu Huaishen's fingers paused, but he didn't speak.

Ruan Zhi noticed his movements, and his heart felt even more sad, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth also expanded, "Ruan Ximing is obviously not sick, you help hide it." He's not paralyzed, and you help. I think it was Ruan Ximing who you loved at the beginning, right?"

"......" Xu Huaishen finally turned his head to look at her, "Ruan Zhi, even if you want to settle the account, I will settle it with you." You're not qualified to count me. ”

"Huh. Ruan Zhi was almost angry and cried.

Listen to his tone, what he says, like human language?

Ruan Zhi didn't bother to tell him.

Xu Huaishen is a self-righteous and empty-eyed man, who has always thought that he is high and does the right thing.

With such a person, Ruan Zhi has no way to communicate with him at all.

Ruan Zhi returned to the living room in a huff and sat down beside her daughter.

Ruan Meng leaned over, raised her little head and called her sweetly: "Mommy." ”

Ruan Zhi squeezed out a smile, turned his head and saw Xu Huaishen come out, and the smile broke instantly.

............

As soon as Minglang finished the meeting, he picked up his mobile phone and saw two missed calls from Ruan Zhi.

Counting the time, she should have arrived a long time ago.

Minglang's fingers paused on the number, then moved away and turned off the phone.

He's already said he's going to leave her alone.

What is she like and what does it have to do with her?

"Mr. Ming, Miss Ruan is here. The secretary walked over and said.

Minglang was stunned for a moment, and for a moment thought that the secretary was talking about Ruan Zhi. But I also reacted that this Miss Ruan is not Ruan Zhi, but Ruan Jiani, who has developed very well in the past two years.

Ruan Jiani has developed very strongly in the past two years, and her relationship with major bosses is also very good, and she is very open in the circle.

Today's Ruan Jiani is no longer a newcomer who debuted three years ago, in addition to the owner Xingyao, she has also accumulated a lot of contacts and resources at hand.

"Mr. Ming. Ruan Jiani didn't wait for the secretary to finish the report, and directly pushed the door and walked in.

People always change.

Especially people who start from nothing are more likely to become arrogant.

Ruan Jiani's change is witnessed by the whole company.

Three years ago, she was almost hidden, and her acting career almost ended.

Even if the company later lifted the snow on her, the script for her was not very good.

And no one would have thought that three years later, Ruan Jiani would rely on her own skills and rise all the way.

Now, she is the most popular female star in Xingyao.

With confidence, the waist bar has also become very hard.

In front of Minglang, Ruan Jiani has also changed from being respectful in the past to being a little unscrupulous like today.

The secretary looked at Minglang and saw that he just raised his hand and didn't say anything, so he went out first.

Ruan Jiani pulled the chair opposite and sat down, a smile appeared on her delicate face, "Do you want to eat together tomorrow night?"

Minglang didn't raise his head, "I'm not available." ”

This is not the first time Ruan Jiani has made an appointment clear, and it is not the first time she has been rejected.

As if she was used to it, Ruan Jiani leaned back in her chair, ran her fingers around her freshly made hair, and said in the most casual tone: "That's a pity." I heard that Director Zhang was in Liangcheng recently, and I specially asked someone to ask her to have dinner together tonight. Since you're not available, I'll go myself. ”
