Chapter Twenty-Three: Can't Hide
Li Wanning was left in place, looking at the check on the table leaning against the back of the chair, and slowly swallowed her coffee.
It's just an illegitimate child, how can he stand in his way?
Chen Luyao bit the corner of his mouth and went back to the studio, and Jiang Xiangyao just came back to the door: "You went out?" β
She was holding a large box with two more bags stacked on top. Chen Luyao reached out to help take down the bag: "Well, go out." Can you help me rent a house with your mom's new husband's ID card? β
"Renting a house? Who is it for? β
"The old house is so old, the street is noisy and unsafe. I have to walk the stairs every day, and I want to change my mom to a quieter place. β
"Are you bullying me for being stupid? If that's the case, why would you borrow an ID card to rent a house? Jiang Xiangyan also looks stupid, but he is actually a personal spirit: "Hide from Zhang Beichen, right?" β
"You can't hide."
"If you want to hide from him, you won't be able to hide unless you go abroad. The forces of the Zhang family, if you want to find your family in a place with a big palm in Binhai City, isn't it as simple as a joke? β
Chen Luyao opened the door and sighed: "What is this called?" I can't provoke and hide. β
"You have a job to drag your family and your family, which is called hiding from the monk and not hiding from the temple." Jiang Xiangyan threw the box into the corner and gloated and said, "Girl, do you want to take the whole family abroad?" How do you feed your family when you go abroad? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Tell me, what's wrong?"
Chen Luyao thought about it for a while, and euphemistically relayed Li Wanning's words to Jiang Xiangyan.
Jiang Xiangyan frowned while biting the straw on the ice coke and said, "She threatens you." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I'll lend you money and take my son to my dad to hide."
"Your dad?"
"My dad has been married in Frankfurt for more than ten years, and his connections and financial conditions are not bad. I'll book you a plane ticket and lend you money, and my dad will help you find a job when you and your son get there. His wife loves children very much and will help you take care of them. β
Jiang Xiangyan took out his attitude of always saying that the wind is the rain and just do it: "Now you go home and get the documents and ask my brother to apply for a visa for you, and your mother and aunt and cousin and my brother and I will help you take care of it." β
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that Chen Luyao didn't speak, Jiang Xiangyan asked, "What's the matter?" Don't want to go? β
"You're too fast."
"Isn't that what you're hiding?" Jiang Xiangyan asked innocently.
Chen Luyao has the courage to face the hardships of raising a child alone, and also has the courage to face the loneliness of never marrying, but he can't face the feeling of wandering away from home.
Jiang Xiangyan patted Chen Luyao's shoulder and reminded her: "It is Li Wanning who threatens you, not Zhang Beichen."
If he really wanted to rob his son, he wouldn't let you have such a good time, he could suppress my brother, of course, he could suppress the studio, instead of sending the opportunity to the studio like now. β
"At this time, you still help him speak."
"Okay, I won't say much, you go back and think about it yourself, if you really want to hide, my brother and I will try our best to help you."
If you don't want to hide, make it clear to Zhang Beichen, it's best to let him voluntarily admit that Xuan Xuan has nothing to do with him and take care of his fiancΓ©e, so that the Zhang family won't trouble you anymore. β
Chen Luyao didn't speak, just nodded.
Half an hour before kindergarten ended, she took Xuanxuan home.
Xuan Xuan was wearing a clean beige shirt, plaid shorts, a fisherman's hat buttoned on her head, and a pair of big eyes flickering below looked at the endless traffic on the road: "Mom, why did you go home so early today?" β
"Mom is free today and wants to go home and cook you something delicious."
"But you promised the boss to let him take me home."
He ...... It's been a bit busy today. β
"Oh."
It's so guilty, she lied to her son again.
Jiang Xiangyan's words lingered in Chen Luyao's heart for a long time, whether to go or not. Although Xuan Xuan brought so much trouble to himself, Chen Luyao did not regret giving birth to him at all.
The weather was hot and sultry, and Xuan Xuan fell asleep. Chen Luyao gently shook the fan and fanned his son.
On the other side, the phone rang, and the two words on the screen were concise: 'Down'.
It's Zhang Beichen again, he came to ask why he didn't ask him to pick up Xuan Xuan home?
Chen Luyao put his mobile phone aside, and after a while, Zhang Beichen's call came in: "Come down." β
"I'm already asleep, let's talk about it on the phone."
"I can't tell."
"Then I won't talk about it."
"Okay, then I'll go up and knock on the door."
ββ¦β¦ Give me two minutes. β
Even if he doesn't hide, how can he withstand such harassment.
went downstairs with her hair loose in her pajamas, and saw Zhang Beichen squinting at her, as if she was very angry.
pulled Chen Luyao's hand and began to dismantle the gauze.
"What are you doing? I just changed the medicine today! β
Looking at the wound that began to heal, Zhang Beichen deliberately stretched out his hand and flicked it on the wound, and Chen Luyao, who was in pain, quickly withdrew his hand: "You are sick!" Is it gutter oil in your head?! β
When he opened his mouth, he asked: "Didn't you say that I would take Xuan Xuan today." It's revenge to let my pigeon go back on his word. β
"Revenge? You rich people are really interesting. It was you who said that you didn't want Xuanxuan's custody, but you just fulfilled your responsibilities as a father, and you hurt my friend with great fanfare.
I made a concession, and your fiancΓ©e is now warning me to stay away from you if I don't want Xuan Xuan to be taken away. Tell me, who do you two want me to compromise with? β
"Li Wanning is looking for you?"
"Zhang Beichen, I must have done evil in my last life to meet you! I'm just going back on my word, what do you do with me? Why don't you just kill me? Your presence really annoys me. β
Chen Luyao deliberately told Zhang Beichen that Li Wanning came to find him, one was to explain, and the other was to throw the problem to Zhang Beichen, hoping that Zhang Beichen could completely solve this embarrassing dead knot.
I don't know if this counts as a disguised dependence.
"Li Wanning is not my fiancΓ©e, you don't have to worry about what she says, you just listen to me alone in the future."
"What are you? Why should I listen to you? β
Zhang Beichen clasped Chen Luyao's head tightly, his lips close to her ear and replied, "Because you have no other choice." β
At this moment, a huge string of 'hehe' floated in front of Chen Luyao's eyes.
It was also Zhang Beichen's questioning in the middle of the night that made Chen Luyao want to escape from this place even more, and wanted to escape from all the corners of his sight.
She has never felt such a strong sense of oppression, she is like a guinea pig fixed in the laboratory, for observation and free to be manipulated by others.
The next day, she sent Xuanxuan to the kindergarten and took her mother downstairs for a walk.
"Mom, I want to go out for a while, maybe a few years."
Mom suddenly looked back at her: "Ah, isn't the university in Marina City very good?" Why do you have to go to another country? Mom can still take care of you at home. β
"Mom, I'm not going to college, I'm ......"
