It wasn't until twilight was approaching that Su Yimo reluctantly separated from Shen Yueru and called a car to go to Zijinyuan.

In the car.

She looked sad as she looked at the scenery flying by outside the car window.

Her ideal mother is like Shen Yueru, beautiful, elegant, amiable, they have endless topics to talk about, have common interests and hobbies, they get along with each other warm and comfortable, and it is not enough to be together for a long time.

However, after all, she can only be someone else's mother, not hers.

……

"This girl is so good, Xiao Zhuo, you must take good grasp of it, if I have a son, I will definitely introduce her to me and make her my daughter-in-law."

Inside the car.

Shen Yueru glanced at Shen Zhuo, smiled and advised, and in the end, she lowered her eyelids, her expression could not hide her loss, and she sighed faintly.

If only she were her daughter.

Thinking of Lu Xueqi, she felt sour in her heart, she was obviously her own daughter, but she was not as close as a stranger who had only met once.

Knowing that she came to Liangcheng, she ran back to Kyoto, and stayed by that Yang Rong's side every day, as if she was her mother, which really chilled her.

"Well, I know, I'll do my best."

Shen Zhuo glanced in the rearview mirror, nodded and smiled.

Of course he knew that she was good, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to Liangcheng to chase her, but now that her heart was not with him, he had to work harder.

……

Zijin Yuan.

As soon as Su Yimo entered the villa, he began to look for Xiaobao's shadow everywhere.

Of course, by the way, I also looked for Xiaobao's father.

"Huh? Where did these two go? ”

Su Yimo looked around on the first floor, but didn't see their big and small figures.

Usually Xiaobao is either playing on the first floor or in class, what's wrong today? Where did you go?

Su Yimo asked the maid, and the maid said that they didn't know either, so she had no choice but to find it herself.

She went up to the bedroom on the third floor, pushed the door in, and saw Xiaobao lying on the bed, her back was lost and sad, and Su Yimo suddenly felt distressed.

"I said don't bother me again! Get out! ”

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xiaobao thought it was a servant, and said angrily.

But after the door closed, he could still hear footsteps.

Not only did she not leave, but she walked towards him.

His little lungs are going to explode!

"Why don't you get out yet!"

He puffed out his cheeks, and his little face turned back with annoyance.

"Mommy, Mommy?"

Xiaobao didn't expect to see Su Yimo, and the anger on his little face instantly turned into surprise.

"Mommy!"

After the surprise, he suddenly felt aggrieved, and cried with a deflated mouth.

He threw himself into Su Yimo's arms and hugged her tightly, "Mommy, I thought I wouldn't see you today." ”

Su Yimo picked her up and stroked his back, her nose was sore, and her eyes were red, "How come, didn't Mommy say that she would come back today?" When did Mommy break her word? ”

"But I saw that my dad was alone, I thought you weren't coming?"

Xiaobao sobbed, and put her two little hands around Su Yimo's neck, as if she was afraid that she would run away in the next second and disappear.

"Didn't Dad tell you that I had an appointment with a friend and came back in the evening?"

"No, Dabi's face is very scary, as if he is very angry, I thought you had a quarrel? also fired at Dadbi. ”

"Angry?"

Su Yimo chewed on two words, and her heart was groaning.

Don't...... No, he shouldn't know, her words...... It shouldn't make him suspicious.

"Mommy, did you really quarrel with Dabi?"

"Huh? Not...... No, we, we're fine, no fights. ”

Although Su Yimo felt that he should not know, he was still a little uneasy in his heart.

"Oh, that's good."

Xiaobao leaned on Su Yimo's shoulder, and her stomach suddenly "gurgled".

Su Yimo looked down at him, "Are you hungry?" Didn't have dinner? ”

Xiaobao touched his stomach and shook his head, "No, I was sad, so I didn't eat." ”

"Then how can I do it, no matter how sad I am in the future, I have to eat, do you know?"

"Well, got it, Mommy, I want to eat the braised pork ribs you made."

"Okay, Mommy, I'm going to make it for you, little glutton."

Su Yimo nodded Xiaobao's nose, carried him downstairs, and went to make braised pork ribs for him.

After making the ribs, she stir-fried a few more dishes and stewed a soup.

She brought the meal to the table, untied her apron, and called to Xiaobao, who was playing with Lego in the living room.

"Xiaobao, come over for dinner."

"Come on, come on, I'm going to starve to death!"

Xiaobao put down the toy in his hand and ran over.

"Wow, it smells so good! I'm going to eat three bowls today! ”

Xiaobao looked at the fragrant food on the table, and his saliva was about to flow out.

Su Yimo hugged him to the chair, "You can't eat so much, it's already night, and eating too much of your little belly will be uncomfortable." ”

"Okay, then I'll eat two and a half bowls!"

Xiaobao said with a grin, Su Yimo poked his little brain dotingly, "Little ghost head." By the way, you didn't eat dinner, did your dad eat it? ”

Xiaobao shook his head, "No, Dad went into the study when he came back, and then he never came out." ”

"Well, I'll send it to him."

Su Yimo said that she took a warm lunch box, filled the food and soup, took the elevator to the second floor, and walked towards the study.

In the study, Gu Lichen did not work.

He was in a bad mood and couldn't concentrate.

He sat on the couch by the window, in a daze, while drinking.

Suddenly, "knock knock", there were three knocks outside the door.

"What's the matter?"

Gu Lichen's fingertips rubbed the wall of the cup, lowered his eyes and bowed his head.

"I heard Xiaobao say that you haven't eaten, so I came to bring you some food. I just made it, and it tastes pretty good. ”

The girl's gentle voice came, Gu Lichen's fingertips froze, and slowly raised his eyelids.

He stared at the doorway, the look on his face was not ordinarily complicated.

Why is there no movement?

Whether you've eaten it or don't want to eat it, I'll give you a word.

Su Yimo pursed her lips, glanced at the lunch box in her hand, and was just about to turn around and leave angrily, when Gu Lichen's voice sounded inside the door.

"Come in."

His voice was low and steady, and he couldn't hear joy or anger, but Su Yimo still clearly felt that his mood was wrong.

She pursed her lips and pushed the door open.

In the study, Gu Lichen was sitting by the window and leaning at her.

Although the atmosphere in the study seemed to be windless and waveless, calm as usual, Su Yimo was covered in a pang, and her hairs stood up, and she resisted the urge to run away, so she didn't immediately grab the door and flee.

She stiffened her back, put the food box on the table in front of him, threw down the phrase, "Then I'm leaving," and turned away.

But as soon as she took a step, Gu Lichen spoke again, "You lied!" ”

Su Yimo stopped suddenly, and a chill instantly surged from her back, the coolness wrapped her heart, and she couldn't help but shiver.

He...... He got it?

He's—How did he know?

Su Yimo bit her lip and said coldly, "What...... Meaning? ”

She was still holding on to the luck mentality, hoping that what he said was not the same thing as what she thought.

"Pretending to be stupid? Su Yimo, I'll give you another chance! Did you eat with Andy tonight or with someone else? Well? ”

Gu Lichen narrowed his narrow eyes, and his face was as pale as ice.

Su Yimo took a breath of cool air and turned around, "You listen to me, things are not like you......"

"You admit it?"

"I ...... I didn't eat with Andy, Brother Shen Zhuo called me before you called me, but I didn't mean to lie to you, I was just afraid that you would be angry, I was actually looking for Brother Shen Zhuo because of ......"

Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a "bang".

The lunch box on the table was swept to the ground by Gu Lichen, and the food and soup inside were instantly spilled on the ground.

Su Yimo took a step back in fright, she lowered her head, looked at the mess on the ground, and pinched her heart fiercely.

She knew that he loved lotus root, so she specially stewed white fungus lotus root soup.

Su Yimo's eyes were red, and she squatted down and cleaned up the food on the ground.

But while picking up the pieces of dishes, she accidentally cut her fingers.

Bright red blood poured out of the wound, and she frowned and bit her lip, hiding her injured finger in the palm of her hand.

She didn't want him to see that he took care of her, as if she was making a bitter trick, and he didn't care about her, and she was even more sad and uncomfortable.

She quickly packed up and left with the scraps of a lunch box.

After the sound of the door closing, her tears instantly couldn't be stopped, and she rushed down like turning on a faucet.

She wiped her face and hid in a corner crying.

After crying for a while, she gave the scraps in the lunch box to the maid for her to throw in the trash and went back to the bedroom.

She simply rinsed the wound with water, put a band-aid, and sat by the window, hugging the pillow, wiping her tears in a daze.

Gu Lichen leaned his head back on the sofa, raised his glass, and drank all the wine in the cup.

He closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them again, and suddenly, a little red burst into his sight.

He frowned, and hurriedly looked intently.

I saw a drop of blood dripping from the place she had just cleaned up.

A very red, very piercing drop of blood.

In an instant, his heart tugged, and his expression changed instantly.

She's hurt!

Why didn't you tell him when you were hurt, why is this woman so stubborn!

He got up and strode out of the study.

When he met a servant, he asked where Su Yimo was, and after asking three or four times, he learned that Su Yimo was in the bedroom.

He called the servant to fetch the medicine box and went to her bedroom.

In the bedroom, Su Yimo felt that her eyes were a little swollen from crying, and she was just about to get up to get ice cubes and apply ice when she heard the sound of the door opening.

"Finished eating?"

She thought it was Xiaobao, and hurriedly turned her head to wipe away the tears on her face.

But the footsteps were calm and powerful, obviously not Xiaobao, she turned around, and saw a tall figure standing behind her.

It was Gu Lichen.

As soon as Su Yimo saw that he suddenly felt aggrieved, and then tears involuntarily fell down.

She didn't want to cry in front of him, but she couldn't help it.

She was very angry, angry with him, angry with herself, and more with herself, she was angry at herself for being so unproductive, why was she so useless, she couldn't even control her tears!

"You go, I don't want to see you!"

She cried as she reached out and pushed him.

Gu Lichen looked at her tearful face, his heart ached, he sighed faintly, and his gaze moved from her face to her hand.
