When it was time to get off work, Zhuli rushed to the elevator with her bag in hand.
After getting out of the elevator, she found a quiet place and called Butler Li, lying that her friend was sick and needed to take care of her, and she would not go back tonight.
Outside the Qisi Group Building.
Ren Xingyan wears an apricot-colored windbreaker with a long pleated skirt. If you don't look closely, she looks somewhat similar to Zhuli.
She was holding a coffee bag in her right hand, looking erratic.
Suddenly, a figure was reflected in his eyes.
"Long time no see." Ren Xingyan gradually tightened his grip on the coffee bag.
Qiao Jue looked back at the speaker and was silent for a while: "Long time no see."
After answering, he turned around and walked forward.
"Qiao Jue, is it still possible for us?" Ren Xingyan paused for a few seconds after calling his name, and then spoke hesitantly.
A cold smile appeared on Qiao Jue's lips, and he was not too surprised by her words: "Xingyan, I already have someone I like. I wish you can find your other half soon."
The tone is light.
Ren Xingyan just watched him disappear into the crowd but couldn't say a word.
Yes, two people who are only together because of a big adventure, how can they expect the other to fall in love with them?
She smiled contemptuously.
"What are you looking at?" Zhuli stood behind her, his arms around her neck.
Ren Xingyan put away his sad look and smiled slightly.
"It's not enough to look at the handsome guy."
The two of them talked and laughed and took the subway back home.
"What? Why did you just tell me such a big thing about my cousin!"
Ren Xingyan sat on the sofa and almost spit out a mouthful of water after listening to Zhuli's gossip.
Zhuli quickly took out a tissue on the coffee table and wiped the corners of her mouth.
"Don't get excited, I'm afraid you'll be busy at work." She smiled broadly and leaned forward slightly to lean on her shoulder.
Ren Xingyan picked up the glasses from the drawer, put them on, and cleared his throat.
"Let me give you some knowledge about our CEO, Mr. Jing, who has been on the Forbes list..."
Zhuli spread her fingers and signaled her to stop talking: "Stop! I don't think you heard what I said before. I said we are just a cooperative relationship."
She looked at her with a teasing expression and sighed.
Ren Xingyan couldn't hold back his excitement and grabbed her shoulders and shook her back and forth.
"So I asked you to seize the opportunity. He has more assets than just Qi Si!"
Zhuli held her forehead and sighed. This person must have watched too many TV series. Do you know how to let her snatch it?
The words of rejection were on his lips, but were interrupted by the ringtone of his own cell phone.
"Mom, come back quickly! Wuwuwu." It was Jing Youyou's voice.
Zhuli frowned slightly, expressing curiosity.
"It's useless to complain to your mother. It's useless for anyone to come today!" Jing Huaizhi said angrily.
Zhuli listened but didn't dare to speak. She didn't come back to her senses until Butler Li reminded her to go home quickly.
"Xingyan, I have to go back." She hurriedly picked up her things and went out.
Qingfeng Garden.
As soon as Zhuli opened the door of the living room, shards of glass slipped by her feet.
She stood there blankly, looking at the messy living room and not daring to move forward for a long time.
"Mom! Dad beat me!"
Jing Youyou seemed to have seen a savior. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and quickly slid down from the chair and hid behind her.
Until now Zhuli didn't know what happened.
She quietly moved her eyes to the man sitting on the sofa and shivered several times.
He picked up Jing Youyou and walked to the sofa next to him to sit down.
"Boss, what mistake did Youyou make?" She said in a muffled voice, leaning forward and moving her lips.
Jing Huaizhi's face was gloomy and terrifying. This was the first time Zhuli saw him so angry, so he drew back after asking.
"Jing Youyou, let me tell you, if you continue to threaten the teacher and Grandma Li with not going to school and not eating, you will stop asking for all the toys in your room!"
His eyes widened and veins popped out on his hands.
Jing Youyou cried harder, her tears and snot all smeared on Zhuli's body.
"Youyou, why don't you go to school or eat?" Zhuli held her shoulders and asked in a low voice.
Jing Youyou's eyes were full of grievance, and her lips trembled: "I want dad and mom to sleep with me."
"All the children in kindergarten sleep with their father and mother. Why, why do I..."
"Why can't I be like other kids?"
She was incoherent and whimpered her reasons.
After listening to this, Zhuli calmed down and thought about it for a few seconds, thinking that what Jing Youyou said made sense.
The company of her parents is very important at her age, but she is usually too self-centered and has not considered this matter at all.
"Youyou, dad is right, going to school and eating are your own business."
"Mom, promise you, will you sleep with me from now on?"
Zhuli reached out to brush away Jing Youyou's messy hair and hugged her into his arms.
She heard Butler Li mention that Jing Youyou had never seen her mother since she was born.
Now that she is Mrs. Jing in name only, she must take good care of her daughter for Mrs. Jing as much as possible.
"What about dad?" Jing Youyou curled her lips and looked timidly at the man sitting on the sofa.
After a long time, Jing Huaizhi moved the corners of his mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "Dad, I promise you too."
At this moment, Jing Youyou suddenly changed her face. She shook her little head and hugged Zhuli tightly: "Thank you, mom, thank you, dad!"
What a little drama queen, he changes his face at the same speed as Jing Huai.
Zhuli breathed out, it seemed that tonight was not too bad.
"I'm going upstairs first." She curled her lips and tilted her head to coax.
Master bedroom.
"Good acting, what do you want?" Jing Huaizhi sat on the carpet on the sofa and joked.
Jing Youyou blinked her shining eyes with light dancing in her eyes: "Princess dress, Barbie doll, strawberry bear and..."
"Dad, do you think it's really okay for us to lie to mom like this?"
Halfway through her words, she suddenly paused for a moment, lowered her head and sighed.
Even children know that it is wrong to deceive people like this, but Jing Huaizhi enjoys it.
"Youyou, you know, there are many bad men out there who want to steal your mother from your father. Do you want to see your mother be snatched away by others?"
Jing Huaizhi looked gentle and calm, but his tone was full of fun.
Jing Youyou shook her head crazily, she didn't want other children to compete with her for their mother!
"Dad, I don't want to think that I like my mother and my mother also likes me, so she is my mother, right?"
Jing Huaizhi smiled and touched her head: "Youyou is so smart, she is your mother."
The children he taught were smarter than others.
Zhuli, who was lying on her side, had no idea. She was still blaming herself for not caring enough about Jing Youyou.
Dong-dong-dong, there was a knock on the door.
Zhuli leaned her head and still held the quilt in her arms.
"Boss, I, I don't want to sleep on the sofa..."
As soon as she said the word sofa, she met Jing Youyou's pitiful eyes.
"I, I'm going to get the quilt."
Behind her, Jing Huaizhi and Jing Youyou gave each other a victorious look.
