I pretended to be casual and handed the flower back, and of course the card was pressed face down on the table.

"Take it out and put the flowers on your table." I commanded.

The secretary's eyes widened, and then with a knowing expression, she took the flower, buried her nose in it, and let herself take a full deep breath, and she turned and left my office.

I pressed the internal line of the phone and called the head of the sales department.

"These people in the sales department," I said to Adong, "you should take care of it, control the business budget, what kind of customers?" Such a high-standard hospitality. We are not short of money, but we can't spend money indiscriminately, and it is not good for such an extravagant atmosphere to spread. ”

"Good!" "This will never happen again in the sales department." But we all knew that his eyes were fixed on the card that had been sent with the flowers, and he must have guessed, he must have wondered what was written on that card, but I didn't understand why he was obsessed with these details.

That card became a hot potato for me, because Adong's gaze was almost glued to it, so that the head of the sales department couldn't take his eyes off when he came in, and he taught him a simple sentence, "I know this customer, you need to know if you need this specification, and then next time you get out." ”

The man's face changed, and then he disappeared in front of Ah Dong and me as quickly as he coaxed, and the atmosphere in this office began to be tense again, and the most important thing was that Mason seemed to be a little hungry, he cried, and it was useless to coax him with a knife face.

"Mason was crying, he probably missed his mother."

But I knew that as soon as I walked away, he would pounce on me, and then blatantly pick up the card on my desk and look at it carefully.

I lowered my head and put the card in my purse, ignoring Adong's increasingly ugly face, I don't care what kind of man I meet again, I don't care what kind of man I am interested in, men's tastes are often incomprehensible, but I don't mind that I may have a hair. Sao Fa. The appearance of the wave is exposed in front of a young male junior.

I got up and walked over to Mason.

Ah Dong took the knife face away, and then he took the child from my arms. I knew he had a stomach full of questions to ask me, and I could tell he was getting up close and personal with some of his inner thoughts, but in the end he didn't say anything, Mason quieted down, and he went back to his office.

But when he got home that night, he pushed Mason back into my room.

"No matter what, children should be more with their mothers."

I stood at the head of the bed and watched in silence as he settled it all down, and then silently watched him clapping his hands and saying I'm going back to sleep, and you should rest early.

"How the fuck is this going to give me a good rest?" I wanted to call him hypocritical, but then I held back, he had no responsibility or obligation to tie himself to Mason all day, he had to live his life sooner or later, this is also the scene I have been looking forward to, I should have adapted to this situation as soon as possible, but I have reason to believe that this guy is calculating

I was tired, and I didn't have the time or energy to go out on a snowy night with another man.

I wanted to tell him that I wasn't going to do that.

But until his figure disappeared from my door, I didn't call out to him.

That night, it was enough for me to be in a hurry, I didn't know Mason's schedule at night: what time he would be hungry, when should he change his diaper when he should sleep, he didn't like to turn off the lights before he fell asleep, but he didn't like the lights too bright, etc., etc., I always just fell asleep and he had his little hands tied as if he was not awake, I had to stare at him, I thought he was asleep, but I didn't expect that I was sleepy, just into a deep sleep, he made a noise and woke me up.

I was so sleepy, I got up in a daze, I made him milk powder in a daze, but he was not hungry, he was just thirsty, and I had to burp after feeding the milk and water, until he expelled the air in his stomach and hiccups a few loud and long hiccups, and I dared to lay him flat on the cot again, but he stared at the faces that were a little strange to him in the night, and began to cry heartbreakingly.

Ah Dong must have heard it, because I heard his footsteps lingering at my door more than once, and then he stopped quietly, and several times I wanted to rush to the door, and then I pulled the door open vigorously, and asked him this is what he wanted to see? Or just ask him in and ask him to help me pacify Mason.

But I didn't do either, Mason is my son, and something may have been wrong in the first place.

I finally managed to survive until dawn the next day, my face was haggard, Mason didn't seem satisfied with my performance last night, he was very anxious, he often cried, and Ah Dong didn't seem to sleep very comfortably. I saw that his eyes were covered with fine red bloodshots.

The maid prepares the meal, Knifeface wonders where Mason had collapsed last night, and asks me if he's used to it.

I nodded, and told her it was okay, but who knows all three of us were terrible, especially me and Mason.

'It will take him a little bit of time to get used to it, and I think in a week he will get used to it.'

I don't have much confidence in my heart when I say this, I don't know if I can hear it, I'm not asking for her opinion, I'm not stating a fact to her, I just want to ask for her experience from the side. She has experience, and she should have heard of this situation if she has never encountered it, so she should be able to give me a relatively objective answer.

I want to know how long I have to go on like this, and although I will stick to it no matter how long it takes, I still want to know a deadline, so that at least I have a hope in my heart.

"That maybe," said Knifeface, "some children can readjust in less than a week, but some children may still be messing with you if you give them a few months." ”

I was devastated, I didn't sleep well last night, and it made me feel a little top-heavy, and my eyelids were too heavy to pick up, so I put on some light makeup and a little lipstick, just to make myself not look so haggard.

I was very angry,

I want to tell Adong that without him, I can do it alone!

Ah Dong ate breakfast silently, after eating breakfast, he drove us to work as usual, the atmosphere in the car was not the same as in the past, in the past we would talk and laugh to the company, but now Ah Dong and I have their own hearts, no one talks to anyone, and the words are polite, stiff and cold, and the knife face obviously smells the smell of gunpowder between us, she is very wise to remain neutral, choose to protect herself.

Ah Dong was busy all day, he didn't come into my office to see Mason all day, and Kang Sheng sent flowers again, which made the situation even more complicated, and I was annoyed, Mason cried significantly more often than before. I picked him up, and my heart was vicious, "Don't cry, can't you live a good life without him?" To be independent, ha, to be independent, not to be dependent on anyone. ”

Blade Face rolled his eyelids at me and said, "You're telling him this now?" Can he understand? ”

I rolled my eyelids back and looked at her as well.

"If I were you, I'd shut up."

Knife-faced shrugged, noncommittal spread, Mason cried so much that my head was so big that the whole office was filled with his crying.

"Is he unwell?"

Knife Face asked.

"If he keeps crying like this, his voice will be hoarse."

I was so anxious that I glanced at the flowers on the table, and I felt that they were even more dazzling.

"Throw it away." I said to Knifeface, who slowly got up and picked up the bouquet of flowers.

"Here you go." I called her over, and shoved Mason into her arms, and I rushed to the large desk, picked up the flower, opened the door, and shouted to the secretary, "Somebody will come and deliver this, and throw it directly in the garbage room." I threw the flower to the ground, and a few petals fell from the stem, and I lay quietly on the floor.

I slammed the door shut, then walked back to my desk and tore the words of a man's admiration for a woman to shreds and threw them in the trash.

After doing all this, I felt a little better, although I knew that it was not Kang Sheng or Hua'er's problem, but that I urgently needed an outlet to relieve my depression.

Mason was still crying, and we took his temperature, which was over 39 degrees.

"He had a fever." I was pale.

"I'll call Adong." Knife Strip Face said.

"No need," I stubbornly grabbed her, I don't believe that our mother and son can't live well without him. Again, sooner or later he will leave, sooner or later he will leave. I should have taken on the responsibility of raising Mason myself.

Asked the secretary to call the driver and we took Mason to the hospital.

After a while, someone pushed the door in, I thought it was the driver, and by that time I and Knife Face had already finished Mason, Mason seemed to be tired of crying, he fell asleep, but he slept very unsteadily, and sometimes suddenly he opened two small hands, as if looking for something that would give him a sense of security.

Then, his sense of security came, and Ah Dong stood in front of the small bed and asked me, "How many degrees?" ”

"39.2 degrees."

"Don't rush to the hospital, this situation for me

I knew in my heart, once Mason was also this symptom at night, I fed him some cooling medicine, drank a lot of water, and then physically cooled down, he was alive and kicking again the next morning, and you tossed him into the hospital, which is an infusion, which is not good for the child's physical development and health, and it is now the season of colds, and cross-infection may make his situation worse. ”

I picked up Mason and said don't worry about it.

He moved, sideways in front of me.

And the knife strip face did not move at all, and she said that she agreed with what Ah Dong just said. You can observe for a day, and if the situation does not improve, go to the hospital again.

But I grimaced, "Get up." I said to Adong.

Don didn't mean to dodge, he reached out and tried to grab Mason from my arms.

I leaned over and told him silently that we didn't need him as much as he thought we would, and that he didn't have to.

Ah Dong didn't give up, his two arms were awkwardly placed in the air, and he didn't pull them back, but became more persistent.

"You can be angry, you can be angry with me, you can beat me and scold me, anything, but now you let me take care of him, if he is not good, you will be angry with me again, if I can't take care of him, I will get out, I will never come back."

He let out a low sigh. Mason's little face has two plateau reds on it.

"Give me the child, if it turns into pneumonia, it's bad, you can punish me as much as you want, you can punish me, but not now, okay?"

He prayed so mournfully that he almost forgot that there was an outsider in the room, and I wept, tears falling down on Mason.
