076 Don't be presumptuous
From the time I left Gu Qinzhi, to the later discovery of pregnancy, and then left the child in a suspicious mood, and then gave birth to a child, took care of the child, and watched a soft doll grow into what it is now, the center of it is sour, and there is no need to say it to others. However, in this process, there is one person who has been silently caring for me and helping me, and this person is Du Heng.
When I was at my saddest, when I was almost out of food, Du Heng gave me a project to solve the economic crisis; In my solo birth, Du Heng, an unmarried man, saw the scene of a woman's bloody birth for me; When my child was sick and I was so anxious that I was delirious, Du Heng appeared in front of me like a god and helped me arrange everything in the hospital and, if you think about it, he did more than that, this kind of long-term care moved me. Maybe it's because I have children, but those things that are going on before and under the moon can't move me anymore. What touches me is this kind of slow, seeping care.
I really didn't expect that before I knew it, Du Heng had done so much for me. I sat alone on the couch and thought about it for a long time, until Qiuqiu started crying, and I suddenly woke up from my deep thought. At the same time, he said to himself in his heart: Xu Tu, you can't choose Du Heng, because it's unfair to him.
What happened to me was unfair to Du Heng, and he was not obliged to help me take on the responsibility of raising my children.
Taking a deep breath, I suppressed the emotion in my heart, then grabbed the toys for Qiuqiu and went to the kitchen to cook for him.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Du Heng called me and asked if Qiuqiu had slept, he had something to say to me, it would take about half an hour. I took one look at Qiuqiu, who was sleeping, thought for a moment and said, "No, he's sleeping." ”
He seemed to realize something on the other end of the phone, and was silent for a while and said, "Okay, we'll talk at noon tomorrow, and I'll go to your unit to find you." ”
I was a little at a loss, and suddenly realized that all this was Du Heng's intention, and it was definitely not a temporary attempt to pull me to be an impostor girlfriend. He counted every step of the way, even how I felt about him. But even if I agree now, it is unfair to Du Heng's parents, because the child is not Du Heng's, I can't let other people's parents rejoice, not to mention that I used this empty joy to get what I wanted, such as home, such as the child's household registration, such as Qiuqiu's father.
This night, the more I thought about it, the more chaotic it became.
I rushed to the company early the next morning, wanting to put myself into work and let my brain get a moment of cleansing, but looking at the project plan and holding the activity materials, I couldn't get a set of activity plans, and my mind was a mess.
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Du Heng called me, and the first thing he said was, I was waiting for you downstairs in your company, and he hung up the phone after speaking. In this way, I had to go down.
Downstairs on the lawn, I saw Du Heng, who was standing tall and tall. Standing in the sunlight with a smile on his face, he waved his hand at me and motioned for me to walk over.
I pretended to be okay and walked up to him and asked, "Let's have lunch together, what do you want to eat?" ”
Du Heng thought for a while and said, "It doesn't matter what you eat, the main thing is to find a quiet place to chat." ”
"Then the south bank of the river." I say.
Jiangnan Bank is a newly opened catering brand in recent months, the environment is elegant, the price is very expensive, and the amount of dishes is very small, and the meal for two people is almost more than 600 yuan. However, despite all these shortcomings, many people like the elegant and quiet dining environment. Whenever I have something that needs to be discussed at the dinner table, I will make an appointment on the south bank of the river.
The two of us went one after the other, and entered the south bank of the river as usual to talk about work, and the waiter who knew me immediately took us to the location where we often go, and when the tea came up, Du Heng straightened his body, took a sip of tea and said slowly: "What I said yesterday, what do you think?" ”
"Nope." I looked at him and refused without hesitation.
"Why not? Don't tell me the reasons you've said. Du Hengjue said.
I coughed lightly, glanced at the teacup in his hand, and found that his finger joints were not yet tight, and knowing that I still had a chance to explain, I immediately said, "I can't make up anything other than the reasons I said." Du Heng, I am an unmarried woman, my personal conditions are not very good, I am not particularly beautiful, my ability is not super strong, barely a single mother who can support herself and can afford to raise her children by the way, if I am with you, it will be unfair to you. First, on your parents' side, we were deceived from the beginning, and one day we will know the truth, what will we do when we know it? Second, I have a child who is not yours, and I want you to take on the responsibility of raising him, which is not a problem in the short term, but what about the long time? Do you regret it? Do we want to have another child? Third, take 10,000 steps back and say, the above questions can be ignored, we will really be together in the future, and it will be impossible for me to have children with you again for the sake of Qiuqiu. So, we can't be together. Thank you for taking care of these months. ”
After listening to my words, Du Heng's face turned slightly pale, but he quickly returned to normal, and actually smiled at me and said, "This is not a reason, nor is it a problem, I just want to confirm one thing." ”
I watched him silently, wondering what was more important than that.
"Do you love me?" He paused word by word, "Or, do you feel happy with me?" ”
My heart sank. Speechless.
Women are emotional creatures, and there is never a time when the card doesn't work when it comes to feelings. The reason I thought so much last night was because I wasn't sure if I loved him. If I say I love him, I can put all these problems aside, and if I don't love him, I can put all these problems aside. But I don't know what I'm thinking right now.
Gu Qinzhi?
I don't know, subconsciously it seems that I can't let go of something, but the thing that can't be put down like this is not Qi Yue, not Du Heng, and not Qiuqiu.
"You're not sure right now. Is that right? Du Heng smiled with relief, "It's okay, take your time, it's not too late to make sure before Qiuqiu goes to kindergarten, and don't delay him to go to the household registration." ”
I was also relieved, I was really afraid that Du Heng would ask me.
"But there's one thing I need your help with right now." Du Heng personally refilled the tea for me and said, "My parents have to take care of it more, just go through a routine once a week, and my father's heart surgery appointment will be three months later." After he recovers from the operation, if you think clearly that you really don't want to be with me, let's explain to the old man that we will still be friends in the future. ”
I thought about it, and he took such a big step and nodded in response. Now, I really don't dare to expose all this in front of Du Heng's parents, if the old man is angry, I will not be able to live in this life. I don't want to carry a mental burden on my back.
After the two of us finished talking about it, we both felt relaxed and I saw that Du Heng moved his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
The waiter put the dishes on the table, and we buried our heads in eating.
Du Heng has a very good eating habit, he really eats without saying anything, no matter what he says, he says it before or after a meal, and he should say a few times at most during the meal, and he definitely does not participate in the discussion.
After the meal, Du Heng asked about the progress of the project, I invited him to the office to look at the renderings that had just come out of the computer, he put forward a few comments after reading it, and then told me that the group's project should communicate more with the group's people, and don't have the kind of thing that happens after all the finalizations and then overturn and start over, otherwise both sides will work hard, especially on our side, it is too wasteful of energy.
"The people in the group are too busy, I made an appointment to see the sample a few times, but no one came, and the appointment was also rejected to send it to the door." I was a little helpless when it came to the group's projects.
"No, I've always been an excellent employee of the company." Du Heng whispered.
I didn't really hear it and repeated his words: "Good employee, who are you talking about?" ”
Du Heng smiled and said: "It is Liu Xujie, the person in charge of your project, who has been an excellent employee of the company in the past two years, and has conducted special interviews and reports on the company's intranet. ”
"You also do this, this is not the number of state-owned enterprises." I asked, a little puzzled.
"The predecessor of our group was a state-owned enterprise, and later when the state-owned enterprise was restructured, it called on capable people to stand up and contract those unprofitable enterprises, and our chairman contracted the state-owned enterprise that has been losing money, and then acquired it through some means, and finally became the current private enterprise, but there are some people who are indeed the descendants of the old man when he started the business, and he has done it now." Du Heng explained.
"You know that well?" I asked.
"Of course, when you work in a company, you must understand the company's past and present life." He smiled, "You should make an appointment with Liu Xujie again, you have to make an appointment." Otherwise, it's useless, don't say I didn't remind you. ”
I replied with a full mouth, thinking to myself how easy it would be.
Liu Xujie: I made an appointment several times, but the appointment was unsuccessful, and even once I went to him with the first draft, and was sent away by him in three or two sentences, saying that it is just a first draft now, I haven't seen it, how to evaluate the quality of it, it is best to take it after all is done, now I say okay, what if the actual effect is not good, I say it is not good now, after it is modified according to my meaning, what should I do if it is even worse?
He blocked me to death in a few words, so I had to come back and continue to make plans, and I decided to make at least five sets of plans and hand them over, and there was always one that would satisfy him.
Being reminded by Du Heng like this today, I don't think it's right, Liu Xujie's attitude is obviously deliberately making things difficult. Perhaps, I should give him some favors?
After sending Du Heng away, I calmed down a lot, and my work was slowly on the right track.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Wu called me at three o'clock in the afternoon, saying that Qiuqiu suddenly vomited and leaked, I don't know what happened, suspected that it was acute gastroenteritis, and explained to me that she didn't give Qiuqiu anything to eat at noon.
I didn't say a word and took a taxi home, picked up Qiuqiu, picked up the supplementary food that Qiuqiu ate at noon and went straight to the hospital, it was a busy job in the hospital, the doctor checked out that Qiuqiu was food poisoning, but Aunt Wu at noon made the aunt is no problem, I don't know what went wrong.
Aunt Wu held Qiuqiu infusion, looked at me with a guilty face, and whispered, "I'm sorry, Xiao Xu, I didn't take care of Qiuqiu." ”
"Aunt Wu, it has nothing to do with you, the doctor said that Qiuqiu's food is fine, or he caught something unclean at home and ate it." While comforting Aunt Wu, I wondered what it would be. Looking at Qiuqiu's uncomfortable appearance, my heart was twisted by someone's hands.
"By the way, Xiao Xu, I took Qiuqiu for a walk downstairs in the morning, and there was also a group of old ladies with children, one of whom handed Qiuqiu a finger biscuit." Aunt Wu thought of something, her eyes widened and said to me, "I haven't seen that old man much, but when I saw that she had a child in her hand, I didn't think much about it, it was all a community." ”
"Whose family is the child?" I asked.
Aunt Wu thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "I don't have much impression of that child. ”
This has become a headless public case, I believe it is not Aunt Wu's problem, she has been carrying Qiuqiu for a few months, treating Qiuqiu like her own grandson, and even often pays for Qiuqiu to buy food and play, she will never do this. The only thing that could go wrong was the old lady who gave Qiuqiu a finger cookie this morning.
"By the way, I didn't finish the ball." Aunt Wu hurriedly rummaged through the small pocket of the ball coat, took out half of the finger biscuit from it and handed it to me.
I hurriedly wrapped this biscuit in paper and went to the doctor for testing, and after waiting for half an hour, the result came out---- there was a problem with the biscuit.
Aunt Wu was so frightened that tears flowed from her eyes, and she apologized to me and blamed herself at the same time.
"Aunt Wu, don't worry, this has nothing to do with you, it's just that you have to pay special attention to taking care of children in the future, not everyone can trust it." I'm busy comforting.
I believe that after this incident, Aunt Wu will only be more attentive to the ball.
It's just that who will be the person who gave Qiuqiu Finger Biscuits?
Fortunately, Qiuqiu did not have any problems with his body, and he slowly got better after the water infusion in the hospital. Back to the community. I took Aunt Wu downstairs around the place where the children often moved for a long time, and I never met the old lady again.
I even had a slight suspicion that what Aunt Wu said was false, but in a split second I overturned my suspicions.
We even reported this incident when we were in the hospital, and more than a week passed, and the police did not find any clues, but called us to tell us to pay more attention when watching the children, so as not to be targeted by the bad guys again.
From that day on, I always felt that someone was staring at me in the dark, and it was very uncomfortable.
When Qiuqiu was about to be discharged from the hospital, Du Heng and I accidentally said that he had missed his mouth on the phone, and he rushed to the hospital in half an hour. hugged Qiuqiu first, and then looked at me with a reproachful look on my face and said, "Why didn't you inform me earlier, if something happened to Qiuqiu, how would you explain it to me?" ”
His tone was like his biological father, and I heard it warm and angry.
Qiuqiu hadn't seen him for more than a week, and he hung himself around his neck and refused to come down, so I had to ask him to take us home.
After playing at home for a while, when Du Heng was about to leave, Qiuqiu shed tears a little, probably tortured in the hospital this week.
Du Heng was soft-hearted. I'm soft-hearted, too. He thought about it and took out the phone and dialed out: "Mom and Dad, I'll go back later today, I didn't go to play at home last weekend, I was sick, and I was discharged from the hospital today." ”
I didn't know what was said on the other end of the phone, Du Heng hurriedly said that it was okay, let them not worry.
After talking about the phone for more than ten minutes, and finally hung up the phone, Du Heng smiled and said, "My parents are worried, so they have to come and see." ”
My heart warmed and I understood what it meant.
As long as any old man is afraid of facing the biological grandchildren of the next generation, we waited at home for an hour, the door was knocked on, and Du Heng's parents came to the door. They were holding large bags and small bags in their hands, and the expressions on their faces were a little embarrassed and a little anxious.
I hurriedly called my uncle and aunt to let me into the house and pour tea at the same time.
Qiuqiu nested in Du Heng's arms, laughing while playing, the whole person was very happy, and his happiness was very infectious, so that the corners of the mouths of those who saw him couldn't help but rise.
It's useless to explain anything at this time, I can only tell the truth. Before Du Heng could speak, his father opened his mouth and asked me slowly: "Xiao Xu, have you offended anyone?" ”
I thought about it and looked at Du Heng: "It doesn't seem to be, if there is, there is only one, my ex-boyfriend." ”
Du Heng's father asked with a deep look in his eyes: "I shouldn't ask this, but it's about the child, and I also don't respect the old once, who is your ex-boyfriend?" ”
Without waiting for me to say, Du Heng said, "Don't ask, I'll deal with this matter." ”
Du Heng's parents didn't know me well, and when they heard their son speak, they didn't continue to ask this question. The room has become harmonious again, and on the surface, it seems that it is really a family that loves each other.
Sent Du Heng's family away, coaxed Qiuqiu to sleep, Aunt Wu rested after a tired day, the whole house was quiet, I relaxed, ready to turn on the computer and look at the activity plan for a while, to see if there are any new ideas.
Just then, my phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number.
I looked at the time, and at half past ten in the evening, I didn't answer this strange number because I thought it was weird, so I hung up and put my phone aside. Who knew that this call was quite persistent, as soon as I hung up for ten seconds, it would come back in, over and over again about five times. I was a little annoyed, picked up my phone and walked to the balcony, and said impatiently: "Who, it's annoying, it's still making harassing calls in the middle of the night." ”
"Xu Tu, it's me, I'm downstairs at your house, either you come down or I go up." A familiar voice came from the phone, it was Gu Qinzhi.
I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't expect the call to be from Gu Qinzhi, let alone that he would be downstairs at my house.
"No kidding, you're downstairs in my house?" I asked.
"Yes, you stand on the balcony and take a look, there is a white Humvee by the fountain in the center of your community, it is my car, and I am standing at the door." He lowered his voice on the phone and said, "If it weren't for the fear of noisy children sleeping, I would have gone up and knocked on your door." ”
I opened the curtains and saw a white car parked next to the fountain below, with a man leaning on the door, the cigarette in his hand, the red butt of which was flickering in the night.
"You're looking for me?" I'm not going to go down, so I'll ask.
"If you don't come down, I'll go up and give you three minutes." With that, he hung up.
I looked at the car, I really didn't know how long he had parked underneath, thought for a moment, changed my clothes and shoes, and gently opened the door and went out.
He was extinguishing the cigarette butt as I walked over. I raised my leg to walk towards the door of the apartment where I lived, and when I looked up, I saw me.
We hadn't seen each other for a long time, and suddenly when we saw each other, we didn't say anything and looked at each other for a while.
"Xu Tu, it was your new boyfriend Du Heng who walked from your house just now, and I saw you send them downstairs here, and then go up again." Gu Qinzhi said.
"How long have you been here?" I felt the anger of being watched, and my tone sharpened.
"What are you anxious about? I just came to you and accidentally saw you on a date. Gu Qinzhi looked at me with a gloomy face, "Judging from your current state, everything is my own passion, you are doing so well." But I am worse than dead. ”
"Young Master Gu, don't say this kind of thing again, okay? Usually scumbags would say this, while you are marrying Fang Yihe, you say that you will never forget me, is it interesting? I stared at him coldly.
I don't know where my anger comes from, but when I see him, I can't control my temper.
"Can I tone well?" He sneered, "You stole my child, and you want him to call other men fathers, do you think my Gu Qinzhi is dead, or do you think our Gu family is dead?" ”
I was stopped by him at once, and my heart fluttered a few times before I reacted and asked him, "Who told you that the child is yours?" Qiuqiu has nothing to do with you! ”
I almost shouted this sentence. I really don't want him to know all this.
Gu Qinzhi ignored my attitude and fierce reaction, but leaned over and took out a document from the car, handed it to me and said, "DNA identification report, 999% kinship, you can see it yourself!" ”
My hands were shaking, and I took the report and looked at it through the street lamp next to me, and I only felt that my eyes were sore and sore.
None of this is what I want, I don't want to have anything to do with Gu Qinzhi anymore, is it wrong to say that I gave birth to Qiuqiu?
"It's fake, you don't have a chance to do such an identification!" I got to the crux of the matter and immediately refuted it.
"Qiuqiu was hospitalized last week, and I did a lot of examinations, and I asked the doctor to draw an extra tube of blood, and all the problems were solved, and the results of DNA identification were expedited for a week, and I only got the report at half past five this afternoon." Gu Qinzhi looked at me in a very determined tone.
"Qiuqiu hospitalized? How do you know? I was suddenly quiet.
"If you want to know, you'll know." Gu Qinzhi was still the same old look, looking at me unhurriedly and saying, "You took away my child, and I came to find you, it's right." ”
I understood, took a step back and looked at Gu Qinzhi, only to feel that his heart twitched suddenly: "You arranged the finger biscuits?" Right? Gu Qinzhi, you are not you, you will do it to an innocent child! ”
"Xu Tu, you're still the same, don't always be self-righteous, okay?" Gu Qin Yi grabbed my hand and said. () "Xu Xu Tuzhi" only represents the author's view of the rhinoceros running wild, if it is found that its content violates the national law and contradicts the content, please delete it.
