Chapter 1: The Little Girl

Next Chapter

As Wen Xu drove off the highway, her cell phone rang. She could only park the car on the side of the road and look at the silent and persistently shining street lamps in a daze. The phone that had been thrown aside was still ringing tirelessly, and when the ringtone was about to end, she shook her senses, picked it up, and pressed the answer button.

"Are you there?" the man on the other end of the phone asked, his tone like cold steel, without the slightest warmth. But Wen Xu could still hear the real tension under his deliberate disguise.

And at this time, Wen Xu liked to expose his tricks, her voice was a little too high, with some banter, "Not yet, Wen Che, tell me honestly, are you nervous."

"Asu, you have to call me brother. Winche was very patient and happy to correct the matter, and Winci always felt that even if she was born a few years later than him, she didn't have to worry too much. What's more, she likes to see Wen Che's serious appearance blow up under the hair, and she is alive and well.

Wen Xu knew that he was deliberately pulling away from the topic.

Wen Xu could imagine Wen Che's embarrassed appearance on the other end of the phone, which made her feel a little proud in her heart, and she said loosely, "Don't worry, even if you haven't seen her, she will always be your daughter." Ah, no, have you done a paternity test? You spend all day in the lab holding dry drawings, how do you know that my dear sister-in-law Luo Luo didn't cuckold you?"

"Wincher," Winche was visibly angry, but there was really nothing he could do with his sharp-tongued sister.

"Okay, I'll call you after I get her, and you can hold your engineering drawings and enjoy your old age. Wen Xu tasted the sweetness, and he knew the truth of accepting it when he saw it.

After hanging up the phone, Wen Xu threw the phone aside and opened the car window. The icy winter wind poured in mercilessly, making her shiver solidly. She picked up the dark crocodile-patterned bag from the co-pilot's seat and touched it for a long time before she was annoyed to find that she didn't bring a cigarette case. She suddenly remembered that she had made a pact with Winche about quitting smoking, and that if he knew that his baby daughter lived in a smoky environment, he would go crazy sooner or later.

Wen Xu began to decide to quit smoking after breaking up with her ex-boyfriend, in fact, quitting smoking is the same as falling out of love, just like pulling out a rib in her body without anesthesia. Wen Xu really didn't like that feeling, so he never quit completely. She pumped on and off like this for nearly a decade.

Wen Xu started the car again, and arrived at the residential building agreed with Wen Che before eight o'clock. When she got out of the car, she found that the building was old and dilapidated, like a dying old man. She couldn't believe that her mother would let her live here. Truth be told, it's not a suitable environment for children to grow up.

Wen Xu could only endure his nausea and walked up the stairs.

Wen Su knocked on the door of room 302, and after waiting for a while, an aunt opened the door for her.

The aunt looked at her warily, a strange outsider, a woman who was always a same-sex animal, not to mention that she saw a woman younger and more beautiful than her. She frowned and hesitated slightly, "Are you ......"

"My name is Wen Xu, and I am in charge of picking up the children. Wen Xu clearly sensed the hostility in her, and she smiled, unreserved, and generously introduced herself.

The aunt hesitated for a moment, but still let her in.

At this time, Wen Xu saw the girl, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at the cartoon without blinking. Her whole body was slender and long, and her clothes looked like they were hanging on a bare bamboo pole. Her face is very delicate, and she has completely inherited the excellent genes of her parents and her mother. If it weren't for Wincher's addiction to work, she might have a very complete family.

Wensu walked over and tried to get closer to her.

She noticed Wen Xu's presence, and then shifted her gaze from the TV to hers. Wen Xu looked at her, and she felt that her eyes were like those of a sika deer. It's big, and it's bright.

"Did Dad ask you to pick me up?" the girl's eyes widened, and her expression showed surprise.

In fact, Wen Xu likes to deal with children very much, they often learn not to hide, and they will write their emotions on their faces. But if the girl is born from that woman's womb, she will only be disgusted.

Wen Xu smiled very strongly, which did not prevent her from getting close to this child, "Yes, my name is Wen Xu, I am your father's cousin, you can call me aunt." ”

"Then why didn't Dad come and pick me up? The girl seemed to think of something, and her eyes instantly dimmed. She complained, venting her frustration with Wincher to her heart's content.

It's no wonder that after Wen Che and Luo Luo divorced, Luo Luo found out that she was pregnant. Luo Luo decided to secretly give birth to the child without telling everyone. When Wincher found out about this, the child had already come out of his belly. He proposed to remarry, determined to barely maintain the marriage for the sake of his children. But Luo Luo did not agree and decided to raise it himself.

During this period, Wen Che regularly transferred money to Luo Luo's account as support for his daughter. Wen Xu never asked what the specific number was, but she knew very well that this money could allow Luo Luo's mother and daughter to live a worry-free life.

At least, it shouldn't be where they live.

Luo Luo did not allow Wincher to visit the children, but did not refuse Wincher's financial aid. They lived together in peace for six years until Luo Luo found a man willing to marry her. This man has always refused to accept the child, and Luo Luo can only hand over the child to Wen Che to raise.

When Luo Luo proposed it to him, Winche accepted the child without hesitation.

Wen Xu was speechless by her question, and couldn't think of any way to deal with it for a while.

The aunt closed the door, looked at the girl and scolded, "Luo Qianqian, don't talk nonsense!"

Luo Qianqian's body suddenly shrank, she seemed to be afraid of this aunt.

Only then did Wen Xu know that this girl was called Luo Qianqian.

Auntie smiled gently at Wen Xu, as if what had never happened just now, she lowered her head and patted the blue apron, "Sissi, this child is a bit willful, don't get used to her too much." I've packed her things, and you can go at any time. ”

After Wen Xu threw the last piece of luggage into the trunk, he saw Luo Xiqian standing under the dim street lamp. Her whole body was tightly wrapped, and she was wearing a dark green coat, like a huge zongzi.

Wen Xu touched her head, "We'll see Dad soon." ”

"Then can I still see my mother?" Luo Xiqian seemed to realize something.

Wen Xu was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

"Let's go. Luo Qianqian didn't care, maybe she knew it and urged her.

Wen Xu helped her fasten her seat belt, she didn't know Luo Xiqian's experience, but she felt that she had not had a good time over the years.

Wen Xu parked the car in the garage, pulled Luo Xiqian with one hand, and pulled her suitcase out of the garage with the other. She had been driving for nearly four hours straight, and she was almost unable to concentrate. Luo Xiqian, who had been by her side all the time, didn't speak all the way, and if Wen Xu hadn't glanced at her from time to time, she would have even thought that there was no one sitting in her passenger seat at all.

Wen Xu has always liked lively children, and her words are too few to be likable.

After the elevator opened, Wen Xu pulled Luo Xiqian out. As soon as she came out, she saw a man standing next to her house, he took the key from his bag and was about to open the door. Wen Xu recognized this man, his name was Shen Yang, and he was a math teacher in a key junior high school. It's just ten o'clock, and he should have come back from evening self-study. They've been neighbors for a few years now, and they talk a little bit on weekdays. In ordinary communication, she felt that Shen Yang was like a cold mathematical formula, regular and rigid.

"Yang Yang, are you coming back from self-study next night?" Wen Xu has always been a familiar character, and he looked very enthusiastic when he greeted him. She knows that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

"Well, the results of the monthly exam have just come out, and I took advantage of the evening self-study to explain the test questions to the students. Shen Yang turned around and said to Wen Xu nonchalantly, he is now teaching the third year of junior high school, and it is a key class, and the results of their class have always been a guarantee of the admission rate. Perhaps because the weather is too cold, the students' learning enthusiasm is not as good as before, and they are even lazy in class, and they are completely devoid of energy.

After graduating from university, she has been working in a foreign company in the jewelry business, and has been in the company for almost ten years, and only barely took the position of manager of the publicity department the previous year. After being promoted, she felt that she had reached the peak of her life and that her enthusiasm for work had been exhausted.

"Son, be patient. Wen Xu raised his head slightly, looking at Shen Yang's angular face. Thirty-two years old and unmarried, she didn't know the theory of educating children, she thought of Luo Xiqian, who had been silent, and felt a headache.

"Is this your daughter?" Shen Yang obviously noticed the child and asked quietly.

"No," Wen Xu explained, "she's my niece, and my brother is too busy with work to take her with him, so he left her with me and asked me to take care of her." ”

Shen Yang nodded and pondered for a moment, "If the child doesn't have anything to eat, you bring her to me." Although my side is simple, I have three normal meals. ”

Wen Xuleng paused, only then did she remember that Luo Qianqian had not yet gone through the enrollment procedures, her work was 9 to 5, and she ate working meals in the company at noon, or fooled around casually, and it was impossible to take care of her all the time.

"Then please. "I really want people, and my attitude is very sincere.

After arriving home, Wen Xu helped Luo Xiqian sort out her clothes, and she handed Luo Xiqian a pig-shaped pajamas and told her that it was time to take a bath. It wasn't until she heard the sound of water that Wen Xu quietly called Wen Che.

"I brought her back, her name was Luo Xiqian, and she was a very skinny girl. Your decision was right, Luo Luo didn't take care of her at all. The money you gave her, she probably didn't use it for this child at all. Wen Xu said to Wen Che after hearing that the phone was connected. Looking at this thin little girl, Wen Xu had to speculate maliciously about her biological mother.

"I see. Wen Che's voice was bone-chilling, as if he had just been fished out of the refrigerator.

"When are you going to come and pick her up?" Wen Xu asked seriously, she knew very well that it was impossible for her to take care of Luo Xiqian for too long, and she was not suitable for the role of mother.

"Give me some more time, Asu, I've worked hard for you this time. Wen Che's tone softened instantly, and he knew very well that Wen Xu's character of eating soft and not eating hard.

"I'll give you only one week, and if you don't come to pick her up after a week, I'll throw her out of my door. Wen Xu was silent for a moment, threatening without pain.

"You won't. Wincher said without hesitation.

Wen Xu couldn't threaten him, and he wanted to say something, but found that Wen Che had already hung up the phone.
