The child is his?
Ouyang Zimo rushed over and was about to jump down, Chu Shaochen had already lifted Yaoyao out of the water, he hurriedly took it, and neatly took off his coat to wrap his young body: "Yaoyao, is it cold?" β
"Woo! Daddy......"
Yaoyao spat out a big mouthful of water, hugged Ouyang Zimo's neck and cried: "Daddy, woo...... Go home, woo woo, Yaoyao wants to go home......"
"Well, Daddy will take Yaoyao home now."
Ouyang Zimo felt a pain in his heart, held Yaoyao tightly in his arms, and walked quickly towards the place where he parked.
"Poof!"
When Chu Shaochen crawled out of the lake, his whole body was already soaked, the water was cold in spring, and the wind outside was strong, and he kept shivering.
"Ahem! Cough! β
He coughed incessantly, and his extremely handsome face was covered with a layer of cold water.
Mu Xiao looked at him and hesitated for a moment, and finally pulled out his backpack and took out a pack of tissues: "Mr. Chu, here you go." β
Chu Shaochen raised his head and looked at her through the mist, and at this moment, he seemed to see the tenderness in her eyes.
Is he wrong, how can this woman have such a gaze at him?
He raised his hand to wipe the water in front of him, and said lightly: "No." β
ββ¦β¦β
Mu Xiao was slightly stunned, and then leaned over and put the tissue at Chu Shaochen's feet: "Chu Shaochen, let's not meet again in the future, it's not good for you to treat anyone like this." β
Chu Shaochen froze in place, the corners of his mouth were hooked bitterly, looking at her close at hand, he couldn't say a word.
The water flowing from his hair obscured his vision again, and she walked farther and farther away in front of him, and this time, he suddenly didn't want to chase anymore.
The tourists gathered around him and talked about him, but all he heard was the child's cry, which pierced his ears like the tip of a needle......
"Uncle, you can wipe it quickly, Mommy said that it is easy to catch a cold like this."
A little girl dressed in red walked up to him at some point, clutching a fluffy handkerchief in her little hand.
ββ¦β¦β
Chu Shaochen stood in place in a trance, for some reason, at this moment, his eyes were like two handfuls of sea salt had been sprinkled, and the pain was terrible.
Mu Xiao tried to speed up his pace, trying to go faster and farther, but there was still his trembling figure in front of him, it seemed that she couldn't get rid of it no matter where she went.
She never thought that when Yaoyao encountered danger, he would be the first to jump into the water to save people.
Is she too cruel?
Should he be sued that Yaoyao is his daughter?
However, if this matter spreads in the future, people all over the world will look down on Yaoyao, how will Yaoyao grow up and see people in the future?
"Did you watch last night's TV series update, the third young master is really handsome, I like him so much, he's a heartthrob."
"I like him too, it's just that his princess hates it so much, I really hope to find out that she and the third young master are actually brothers and sisters."
"Hehe, even if you are a brother and sister, you can't marry you......"
The conversation between the two young girls was vaguely heard in her ears, Mu Xiao smiled bitterly, the reality she encountered was even more outrageous and sadistic than the TV series!
β¦β¦
The playground is not far from where they live, and it is not the rush hour, the three of them rushed back in only a quarter of an hour, Mu Xiao took a hot bath for Yaoyao, and Yaoyao fell asleep after playing in bed for a while.
When Mu Xiao walked out of the bedroom, Ouyang Zimo was sitting on the sofa looking at his laptop, he should have heard footsteps, he glanced sideways at her, and his gaze shifted to the computer screen again.
In the spacious living room, there was only the slight sound of fingers tapping on the keyboard, and the atmosphere between the two people began to be eerie.
In fact, Yaoyao was fine when she was awake, but once the child was quiet, it became awkward between her and him, "What about Yaoyao?" β
Hua Ziya came out of the bathroom, holding the clothes she had just washed for Yaoyao.
Mu Xiao looked over and lowered his voice: "Sleep." β
"Alas! Xiaoxiao, ......"
Hua Ziya glanced at Ouyang Zimo: "Come with me, my mother has something to say to you." β
Seeing that Hua Ziya had something to do, Mu Xiao responded and followed Hua Ziya to the terrace.
In the three years in Y City, Hua Ziya has been living with Mu Xiao, because she has lived in G, has many friends here, and has been homesick for many years, so after coming back, Hua Ziya often visits friends, and occasionally comes to accompany Mu Xiao and Yaoyao.
"Xiaoxiao, it's been so many years, I don't think it's possible for your sister to come back." Hua Ziya tiptoed to hang her clothes on the drying rack, but her eyes never took her eyes off Mu Xiao.
Mu Xiao felt sad in his heart, lowered his head and couldn't speak.
My sister is a selfless woman, back then, in order not to drag down her lover, she chose to leave, and there was no news for so many years.
Hua Ziya's heart was not easy, after hanging up her clothes, she gently held Mu Xiao's little hand: "Xiaoxiao, I don't think Zimo is having a good time alone, you two have been together for so many years, it's not a way to do this, let's get married." β
Mu Xiao was entangled in his heart, and he was at a loss: "Mom, I don't want to ......"
"Don't want to do anything, don't want to?" It's been three years, Mu Xiao is not tired of hearing these words, she is tired of what she said, this time Hua Ziya is really unbearable: "Xiaoxiao, even if you really don't want to, shouldn't you think about Yaoyao?" Yaoyao is about to go to kindergarten, and she is becoming more and more sensible day by day, and now she is chasing Zimo every day and shouting daddy, and in the future, she will know that you and Zimo are a fake couple, what do you let the child think? β
Mu Xiao was speechless, this was the first time her mother spoke to her so harshly, and what she said was all things that Mu Xiao had also considered, she owed Yaoyao too much, as a mother, she should also think about Yaoyao the most.
"I'm a bit heavy, don't blame Mom, Mom is also good for you."
Seeing Mu Xiao's sad expression, Hua Ziya's words softened: "Xiaoxiao, it is impossible for you and Shao Chen to be able to do so no matter what, besides, he has already been engaged to Cheng Yuxin, and he should get married soon." In the past three years, how Zimo has known you and Yaoyao better than me, in all fairness, who else is more suitable to be Yaoyao's father than him? β
Yes, although Ouyang Zimo has not spent much time with Yaoyao in the past three years, he has been heart-to-heart for Yaoyao, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Mu Xiao wouldn't even believe that a cold and indifferent person like him would have such a gentle side, if it weren't for this, Yaoyao wouldn't have seen him more than Mu Xiao.
But......
"Mom, he's my brother-in-law, what if my sister comes back? Besides......"
Besides, how could Ouyang Zimo agree to such a ridiculous thing?
Besides, even if Ouyang Zimo agreed, how could she be at ease?
"Xiaoxiao, why are you so dead-eyed? Your sister will never come back! Hua Ziya's tears flowed: "I have already talked to Ouyang Zimo, and he promised to marry you......"
Mu Xiao stared at Hua Ziya twice, completely stunned.
She didn't know why Ouyang Zimo agreed to do this, but she knew that he must be in pain in his heart. Although she never understood that man, after experiencing some things, she knew that he was deliberately avoiding her, avoiding her, and even snubbing her, deliberately freezing his own heart to her.
She knew what was hidden in his deep eyes......
It's suffering, it's struggle, it's pain that doesn't want anyone to be tempted and touched.
She knew that Ouyang Zimo had actually been very bitter, and he had been even more bitter than her from beginning to end, but he never let others know, and he had never suffered silently alone.
"Everyone is like this, Xiaoxiao, listen to Mom, for Yaoyao to marry Zimo as soon as possible, I think Xue'er must also want to see you and Zimo if she is still alive."
Mother's euphemistic advice came into his ears, and Mu Xiao's heart was uncertain: "Mom, I'll think about it again." β
In the past, when Hua Ziya told Mu Xiao about this, she always refused very clearly, but now she finally relented......
Hua Ziya secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't want to see Mu Xiao and Ouyang Zimo suffer so much anymore.
β¦β¦
The green water trickles, the grass is mugwort, surrounded by luxuriant poplar trees, and the backs of a warm and snuggled couple on a wooden bench on the shore are shrouded in the setting sun......
Chu Shaochen looked at the painting hanging on the wall attentively, and his thoughts flew back to the small river next to the orphanage, and the couple in the painting seemed to have turned into him and Mu Xiao back then.
"Brother Shao Chen, you must remember to come back to see me in the future."
"Brother Shao Chen, if you don't come, I'll wait here every day, and when the grass is dry and the river is dry, I don't believe you won't come back."
Hehe......
The corners of Chu Shaochen's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile, and in a trance, Mu Xiao's face in his mind suddenly shrank, turning into an immature little face, she pursed her mouth and looked at him with teary eyes: "Uncle Chu is a bad person, Yaoyao ignores you." β
"President's ......"
A middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from his side, Chu Shaochen froze, and turned his head to look over: "What's the matter?" β
"Hehe, President, didn't you order me to come over?" Wang Yan looked at Chu Shaochen with a smile, and even suspected that he had looked away.
Chu Shaochen is a legendary figure who single-handedly led the rise of the Chu clan, he is naturally wise, but just now Wang Yan actually saw him in a daze at a painting, and it was obvious that he himself called him over, and after only a few minutes, he seemed to have forgotten......
What makes the president so distracted?
"Yes." Chu Shaochen withdrew his thoughts, raised his hand and pointed to a few ink paintings hanging on the wall: "Do you know?" β
"I know, it turns out that Mr. Chu likes Miss Wusha's works."
The eyebrows narrowed slightly, and Chu Shaochen's voice was flat: "You can take all these paintings." β
Wang Yan looked in the direction of his finger, there were six on the wall, and there were more than a dozen on the table, Wang Yan was stunned: "President, what do you mean?" β
Send him?
He hasn't made any big contributions to the company lately, has he? How can you afford such a valuable reward?
"She has a figure in each of her paintings, and she analyzes who this figure is."
Wang Yan suddenly realized: "President, I have also studied Miss Wusha's works, those figures should have been painted before she started painting, and they have been blurred, and it will take a lot of time to analyze carefully, and ...... These paintings must be destroyed. β
Chu Shaochen waved his hand: "No matter how much it costs, give me the result!" β
"Oh, okay president, I understand."
Chu Shaochen was impatient, Wang Yan didn't dare to ask more, walked under the wall and began to collect the paintings, muttering in his heart: The average price of each painting of the fog yarn is more than 20,000 yuan, and these 20 paintings are worth hundreds of thousands, how can Mr. Chu care so much about other people's secrets, and he does not hesitate to spend such a big price to snoop......
Rich man, what a willful!
With the sound of footsteps, Wang Yan walked out of the president's office with a few paintings, and Chu Shaochen stood in place for a moment, pressed the cigarette into the ashtray, and walked quickly towards the door.
"President, you're going out?"
Secretary Liu passed by Chu Shaochen and looked at him in surprise.
Chu Shaochen's footsteps didn't stop: "En." β
"But Mr. Cheng will come over in ten minutes, President, look ......"
"In the future, whenever that woman comes, you will receive it." After a sentence, Chu Shaochen entered the elevator without looking back.
The woman?
Isn't Mr. Cheng the president's fiancΓ©e?
Did the president misunderstand that he had become another "Mr. Cheng"?
Secretary Liu was careful, afraid of missing the company's major events, so he hurriedly chased to the elevator door: "President, I don't think you understand, Mr. Cheng, I mean your fiancΓ©e ......"
"I don't need you to remind you!"
Chu Shaochen pressed the "1" button on the elevator sign with a dark face.
The golden door closed with a crisp sound, and Secretary Liu stood outside and couldn't figure out where he had upset the president.
The car stopped, and in front of me was an ordinary residential building, if a person deliberately wanted to avoid a person, I am afraid that they would never see each other in the same community......
There was no elevator, Chu Shaochen walked up to the seventh floor, even if he was a big man, he was a little out of breath, how did that woman go up and down the stairs with a child every day?
Standing outside the door, Chu Shaochen took out his mobile phone and glanced at the message that Sun Peng sent her, No. 703 of Unit 2, there is nothing wrong.
"Dingding!"
He rang the doorbell, and for some reason his heart beat a little often.
"Wait a minute, here's coming."
A middle-aged woman's voice came from inside, and it didn't take long for the door to be opened: "I'm back so soon, Zimo...... Shao Chen? β
Hua Ziya looked at Chu Shaochen and was stunned, holding the doorknob with her right hand, and opened a gap, and the door was neither open nor closed.
"Is that you?"
Chu Shaochen was even more surprised, Hua Ziya appeared in his sight three years ago, and during that time, the Chu family was even restless, and after Mu Xiao divorced him, this woman also evaporated from the world.
"Mom, who's that?" Mu Xiao walked over from outside the entrance and saw Chu Shaochen, his expression was slightly stiff, and then he turned his head and fell back.
Even though that face was fleeting in front of her eyes, Chu Shaochen's heart still shook obviously, and she just called Hua Ziya "Mom"!
Three years ago, Hua Ziya pestered her father, it seemed that there were some emotional entanglements between her and her father, and then Mu Xiao left and she disappeared, how could Chu Shaochen suddenly feel that there was some subtle connection between these things......
Looking at Hua Ziya, a doubt began to take shape in Chu Shaochen's mind at this moment.
"Shao Chen, why are you here?" Hua Ziya came back to her senses and didn't want Chu Shaochen to entangle Mu Xiao, but she felt guilty about both Mu Xiao and Chu Shaochen three years ago, so she was polite to Chu Shaochen.
"Huh." Chu Shaochen smiled but didn't smile: "Come and see the child." β
Specially come to the child?
Did he know that Yaoyao was his......
Hua Ziya's face instantly turned pale: "What?!" β
