Chapter 402: The Child Is Lost
The two who got back together were ambiguous in the house, and outside the door, Xu Xiangsi held his breath and listened.
Suddenly, there was a puzzled inquiry behind him.
"Mr. Xu, you are"
Xu Xiangsi was taken aback, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that it was the secretary.
"Ah, no, nothing wrong, is there something wrong?"
"Here's the document for you."
Xu Xiangsi took the document, the secretary retreated, and she was slightly relieved.
It was not easy for this pair of enemies to come to this point, and they finally pierced the layer of window paper together with each other, and it was a pity to break up because of a misunderstanding.
Fortunately, the misunderstanding was finally resolved.
After that, the days passed peacefully for some days. As winter officially begins, a cold snap hits and the temperature gets colder and colder.
In the Leng family's mansion, red firelight danced in the fireplace, and the entire hall was as warm as spring.
"Knitting two needles and one needle, until the end of a line, this is the simplest ingot."
Xu Xiangsi pinched the knitting needle and tried lamely, "Is that so?"
Aunt Mei shook her head, "No, madam, the first stitch is not knitted, it should be like this"
On the sofa, Aunt Mei was teaching Xu Xiangsi to weave a scarf, of course, she took the initiative.
Speaking of which, it's not all to blame on Wenxuan.
In the past few days, the girl has been knitting a scarf with a thread ball in her spare time in the company, saying that it is a Christmas gift for Li Mu, and that the hand-woven scarf is meaningful, and the whole person is immersed in a kind of happiness and romance.
Xu Xiangsi felt that she could also try it, if she knitted a scarf and gave it to Leng Mo, would he be moved
"Ahh
In a state of distraction, the knitting needle stabbed her finger.
"Oh, ma'am, are you alright?"
Aunt Mei was frightened, and quickly grabbed her hand to check it, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, there is no bleeding." ”
Xu Xiangsi smiled wryly, "Maybe I'm too stupid." ”
Above the sofa, the man sitting upright slowly put down the financial newspaper, and the red fire behind him added a layer of warmth to his silhouette.
"You're not bad." Sudden taunts.
Xu Xiangsi wrinkled his little nose, "What did you say?"
"You said it yourself."
Leng Mo looked like he was smiling, turned the page of the newspaper, and withdrew his gaze.
"You're so annoying, why do you always like to tease me"
Aunt Mei smiled and said, "How can Madam be stupid, you are doing very well, but you have no experience, and you will definitely be proficient." ”
Xu Xiangsi was sullen for a while.
It's infuriating. She forced herself to knit this annoying scarf patiently, for whom?
At this time, the driver, Lao Chen, picked up Yuanyuan from the kindergarten.
"Mommy, Mom, I'm back"
The little girl ran in with a small schoolbag on her back, and her little face was red from the cold, like a little apple.
"Wow, the stove is burning, it's so warm" She rubbed her hands together and exhaled a cloud of white gas.
"Baby, come over and warm up." Xu Xiangsi had just finished speaking, but he noticed that there was a boy outside the door.
Zhang Zihao.
"Yo, little gentleman, you're here again," she quipped.
Zhang Zihao stepped forward slowly and bowed politely to Leng Mo and Xu Xiangsi.
"Uncle, auntie, I'm bothering again."
Xu Xiangsi looked at the handsome little boy with a smile on her face.
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you like, you can come every day."
"Zihao, let's go out and play"
Yuanyuan took the boy's hand, and the two little ones went out the door, and soon disappeared.
Xu Xiangsi smiled helplessly, "This girl, I said it was cold just now, but I don't feel cold anymore when I play at this time." ”
Aunt Mei got up with a smile, "Madam, you just follow the method I just said, practice slowly, I have to prepare dinner." ”
"Go for Aunt May. Ah, by the way, I remember Zihao, this kid, seems to like Brussels sprouts very much."
"Yes."
"Then prepare a portion, and I'll keep him for dinner later."
"Yes, ma'am."
Shan Beichuan looked at the newspaper with a calm gaze, but suddenly asked with interest.
"I've noticed that you're getting more and more concerned about that kid."
"What a cute boy, and he's Yuanyuan's best friend, every time he comes to play, Yuanyuan is a lot happy."
Leng Mo just smiled and didn't say anything more.
Xu Xiangsi got up and sat down beside Leng Mo, and said with a smile, "Don't you think, he is a good match for us."
The man raised his eyebrows, "What a match?"
She quipped, "Maybe Zihao's child will be your son-in-law in the future."
Leng Mo slowly closed the newspaper, raised her hand slightly, and her slender fingers flicked on the door of her small brain.
"Ahh
"Xu Xiangsi, my daughter is only three years old, you think a little too long."
"Hmph, who can say for sure what will happen in the future, after all, this is two little guesses, if they study together in the future, it will be"
Leng Mo just smiled, and soon, Aunt Mei stepped forward to comply.
"Sir, madam, let's dine."
"Okay, I'll call those two kids back."
Xu Xiangsi went out, and the cold wind gusted, which made her shiver.
It's even colder at this time, and I really don't know how those two children can stand it when they play outside
"Yuanyuan, Zihao, I'm back for dinner"
She shouted, but no one answered.
"Strange, crazy where"
The old butler stepped forward and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
"Really, the two little ones don't know where to play, let's look for them separately."
"Yes, ma'am."
In the warm hall, the dining table was full of sumptuous dinners, and Leng Mo sat on the top of the table, waiting.
Thirty minutes passed.
Leng Mo raised his hand and glanced at the time, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Why haven't you come back yet?"
Aunt Mei replied, "The two children don't know where to play, and the lady and the housekeeper are looking for them." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xu Xiangsi walked into the hall.
Her face looked very wrong, she looked confused, and even her walking posture was a little stiff.
"Cold ink," her voice trembled.
Leng Mo noticed her strange appearance and narrowed his eyes slightly, "What's wrong?"
"The child is gone."
"What do you say"
Leng Mo got up solemnly, and after pondering for three seconds, he asked in a cold voice, "I've found everything outside."
"I've searched for it, I've searched it all over, but I can't find it."
Leng Mo's face was solemn and solemn, and he strode out of the hall, and all the servants at home followed.
"Find me, garden, back yard, expand the search if you can't find it"
"Yes"
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the servants did not dare to delay and searched for it with flashlights.
Xu Xiangsi grabbed Leng Mo's hand, and his tone was eager.
"Leng Mo, where can the children go, they used to only play in the garden and never go far"
"You ask me, who do I ask"
Leng Mo let go of her hand, irritably ripped off the collar a little, and strode to find the past, Xu Xiangsi also hurriedly followed.
Outside the door, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the courtyard of the cold house.
The car window was slowly lowered, and Mo Huairen's face was ugly, and his eyes looked at the roses wrapped around the door rail.
"OK it's here"
The white-bearded old man replied respectfully, "Yes, before, the little master often came to this house to play, and he had a good relationship with the little girl in this house. ”
Mo Huairen frowned, "It's just nonsense, it's not good to be friends with anyone, it's just peaceful"
The white-bearded old man apologized sincerely. "I'm sorry, Mr. Mo, I just came back from Italy with the little master, and I didn't know that you and the Leng family still have many grievances. If only I had known sooner."
"Forget it, don't mention it. You go and call the door. ”
Mo Huairen waved his hand, and Whitebeard got out of the car and rang the doorbell on the courtyard wall.
In the courtyard, Leng Mo was still leading people to find the whereabouts of the two children.
A short time later, a servant came forward to report.
"Mr. Mo asks to see."
"Mo Huairen" Leng Mo frowned, his tone impatient, "Tell him that I'm not free now." ”
"Sir, Mr. Mo said that he is here to pick up his son and go home."
"What are you talking about, how did the old fox's son come here" Xu Xiangsi asked puzzled, but in the next second, he suddenly reacted.
"You mean, Mo Huairen said that his son is at my house"
"Yes."
Xu Xiangsi and Leng Mo glanced at each other, and they both saw a little surprise in each other's eyes.
The black Rolls-Royce drove onto the gravel path in the middle of the garden, and the old man with a white beard respectfully opened the door.
Mo Huairen held a cane, leaned out, and stepped forward with a smile, smiling like a fox.
