Chapter 10: Confession and Return
Xia Xue stumbled back to her office.
The moment she closed the office, she sat limply on the ground along the cold wooden door.
She suddenly remembered that she met He Ziting in the supermarket yesterday afternoon, and saw a cart full of high-end children's toys in He Ziting's shopping cart......
A newlywed husband and another woman's child? Hehe, so how can she be embarrassed in this main room?
The phone rang suddenly in the terrifyingly silent office, and she looked at the internal landline phone connected to the president's office.
Pick up? Or don't pick up?
How should she face him who doesn't know the truth yet?
In her hesitation, the phone rang over and over again and again and kept filling her ears.
Finally stood up, slowly walked to the desk, sat on her computer chair, looked at the landline phone that vibrated slightly on the desktop, and wanted to answer, but didn't have the courage to reach out.
The phone ringing is suddenly interrupted.
But about half a minute later, it sounded a second time.
"Bell Bell Bell ......" In the silence of the office, it looks extremely harsh.
Xia Xue took a deep breath, her heart was crossed, and she finally bravely stretched out her hand, took the phone and put it to her ear.
"Where did you just go?" He didn't reproach her, but his gentle voice was full of care.
The parched heart swept through a warm current, from the bottom of the heart along the flow of blood, spread upward, to the chest, neck, to the nose, from warm to sour.
Realizing that tears were about to fall, she took a deep breath.
He sniffed again before replying, "I'm going to the pantry." ”
"Your voice ......" Ao Tianji was keenly aware of her unusualness: "You just cried?" Who made you cry? ”
The emotion in his eager voice was full of concern.
Can you not care about her at such a time?
"I'm fine." She replied blankly, looking up desperately to hold back the tears that almost burst out of her eyes.
The call was suddenly cut off.
When she was stunned, the door to the office was opened with a big grin half a minute later.
His handsome face, full of care, appeared in front of her eyes. Like a savior.
She looked at him in amazement.
He closed the office door casually, and then strode up to her, lifted her little face, stared at her reddened eyes, and made sure that she had just cried, and he asked angrily, "Who made you cry?" ”
The more he wanted to stand up for her, the more he wanted to care about her, the more Xia Xue couldn't control her sad emotions, in order to prevent him from seeing something wrong, she pushed his hand away, turned her face away, and said duplicitously: "No one makes me cry." ”
Ao Tianji pulled her up from the chair, his big hand was on her thin shoulder, his handsome face was almost close to her little face, in order to coax her, his voice couldn't help but soften, full of endless tenderness: "Come, tell me, who made you sad?" ”
Xia Xue was full of sorrow in her heart, and suddenly said angrily: "What can you do if you tell you?" ”
"I will torture the one who makes you cry to death."
His firm tone, imperative and vicious eyes made Xia Xue feel extremely ironic.
She believed that he would not torture his son, whom he had never met, to death.
Bone and blood are close relatives, blood is thicker than water, not to mention that he is reluctant, even she, an outsider, is reluctant. Although she didn't like this child who suddenly appeared and was about to ruin her happiness.
However, she has a conscience. She wouldn't hurt a helpless child under any circumstances.
At this moment, my heart is like a knife, but my brain can't help but think about the same question over and over again.
Ao Mingjie is right, that child is his son, he has the right to know the truth, and he should also take the responsibility of being a father as a matter of course.
But if this is the case, does it mean that He Ziting's mother and son will occupy a certain weight in his heart? Will she no longer have all of him?
She was reluctant to share her beloved husband with another woman.
But that child is very pitiful, he is really pitiful, not only has he not enjoyed the slightest father's love since he was born, but he has also been tortured and devastated by a serious illness.
"What is it that makes you so miserable?" Ao Tianji asked.
"......" is hard to say. I can't say it.
"Summer Snow ......"
“……”
"Wife," Ao Tianji shook her body and looked at her worriedly: "What happened, please don't hide it in your heart, do you know how anxious I am and how worried I am about you?" I can't wait to bear your pain for you. ”
Under his repeated questioning, in Xia Xue's realization that it was better to face it earlier than to escape, she suddenly made up her mind and finally told him the facts: "You and He Ziting have a two-year-old son......"
Her voice was low and trembling.
Full of helplessness and pain.
Ao Tianji's hand on her shoulder tightened involuntarily, causing her shoulder to hurt faintly: "Are you kidding?" ”
Xia Xue suddenly took his hand away in annoyance, broke free from his restraints, and retreated three steps away from him, resentful: "When I first heard the news, I also thought it was a joke played by the heavens. But if you think about it, Ao Mingjie won't tell me this for no reason. Did you have a relationship with He Ziting two years ago, don't you have any impression of it? ”
When Ao Tianji remembered the ridiculous night two years ago, the whole person suddenly shook, his steps involuntarily retreated, and his face became pale.
"If you can't remember, why don't you ask He Ziting in person."
Under Xia Xue's reminder, Ao Tianji's trance-like expression suddenly returned to normal, and he looked at her with a complicated look in his deep eyes, then turned around and left her office quickly.
When opening the office door, Ao Tianji unexpectedly saw Ao Yunxi at the door with an equally frightened expression.
Looking at her expression, it was as if she had overheard the conversation between him and Xia Xue just now.
"Brother, when I called Ziting a few days ago, I happened to hear the servant of the He family tell her that the little young master was sick again...... Could it be that the child was really born by Ziting without you? ”
Ao Yunxi's trembling statement made Ao Tianji feel like he had been electrocuted, but after a short period of stunnedness, he didn't say a word, and then crossed Ao Yunxi and strode away.
After Ao Tianji left, Xia Xue and Ao Yunxi looked at each other in pairs.
Xia Xue wanted to see all positive emotions such as comfort, support and encouragement in Ao Yunxi's eyes, but no, she only saw overwhelmed and wavering in Ao Yunxi's eyes.
Ao Yunxi and He Ziting have always been good friends, and now He Ziting is pregnant with her eldest brother's child, will she turn against each other and support He Ziting to take her son to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors?
So what should she do with Xia Xue?
