Xu Youning looked at Kang Ruicheng, trying to tear apart his sad and disappointed appearance with his eyes and see clearly the real purpose of his expression.
She saw——
Kang Ruicheng was trying to influence her. In other words, he was trying to awaken the soft part in her heart and make her change her prejudice against him.
Unfortunately, Kang Ruicheng's move... was used too late.
If it were two years ago, when she was still willing to trust him unconditionally, she might have been moved.
However, from the moment she knew that Kang Ruicheng had killed her grandmother, she could no longer trust him.
No matter how disappointed or sad he was, there would never be any more waves in her heart.
Because he doesn't deserve it!
Kang Ruicheng stepped towards Xu Youning and ordered: "Aning, speak!"
"..." Xu Youning met Kang Ruicheng's eyes calmly, "I don't think I have any misunderstandings about you. You have done what a father should do, but this does not mean that you really love Mumu."
"..." Kang Ruicheng's expression suddenly became weak, and his tone sounded like he was trying to compromise with Xu Youning, "Aning, what do you want from me?"
"Mumu is just a child. I hope you won't take advantage of a five-year-old child!" Xu Youning's voice rose and he finally said, "Also, I will accompany you to the reception!"
Xu Youning admitted that she was changing the topic in the end.
She didn't want to continue on the topic of whether Kang Ruicheng was taking advantage of Mu Mu.
She has known Kang Ruicheng for so many years and is very aware of Kang Ruicheng's profit-seeking style.
Kang Ruicheng's attitude towards a person will never change without reason.
Unless he has some ulterior motive!
"Okay." Kang Ruicheng obviously had no intention of arguing with Xu Youning anymore, "Go back to your room."
"..."
Xu Youning said nothing more and went upstairs without looking back.
Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Youning's farther and farther back, his hands gradually tightened, and finally clenched into fists.
This time, he really wanted to be nice to Mu Mu.
Mumu lost her mother not long after she was born. Now, only he could give Mumu a happy and stable childhood. He didn't want Mumu to be unable to remember any happy memories related to her father when she recalled her childhood in the future.
He took Mumu to play, just to add some happy memories to Mumu's childhood in the limited time.
He admitted that he had other purposes for doing so.
Mu Mu likes Xu Youning very much, and Xu Youning also takes good care of Mu Mu. As long as Mu Mu knows that he loves Xu Youning, Mu Mu will stand on his side and help him win Xu Youning's heart.
With Mumu assists, his success rate will be much higher.
This is his "ulterior purpose". It's understandable, right?
Why does Xu Youning have to think so badly of him?
The more Kang Ruicheng thought about it, the more anger burned in his heart, and he punched the coffee table with a huge sound.
Dongzi walked in and happened to see Kang Ruicheng lose his temper.
He still knew Kang Ruicheng, so he subconsciously wanted to retreat and leave the living room.
At this time, he should leave space to Kang Ruicheng alone and let him vent slowly. Until his anger subsides, it will be a good time for him to appear.
Kang Ruicheng noticed Dongzi, called him, and asked coldly: "What's the matter?"
Dongzi did have something to do, but it wasn't anything particularly important. Kang Ruicheng was already so annoyed, so he might as well talk about it another time.
"Brother Cheng, it's okay." Dongzi smiled, "I just wanted to tell you. If nothing happens, I will go back first. My wife and daughter are still waiting for me at home."
Dongzi is with a girl and just gave birth to a daughter some time ago.
Kang Ruicheng wrapped a big red envelope for the little girl and gave her some valuable gifts, but he had never actually met Dongzi's daughter.
At this moment, Kang Ruicheng suddenly realized that Dongzi, like him, had a "father" identity.
"Dongzi," Kang Ruicheng asked suddenly, "do you love your daughter?"
Dongzi was stunned for a moment, surprised that Kang Ruicheng would ask such a question——
However, do we still need to ask this question?
The contours of Dongzi's facial features were a little gentler, and a smile spread from his eyes: "Of course I love her! Don't say it, since she was born, I have a feeling that my life is complete, but again
I feel unsatisfied, I have to earn more money so that my daughter can be worry-free throughout her life!"
Kang Ruicheng still didn't understand, and frowned and asked, "Is this love?"
"This... I don't know either." Dongzi smiled sheepishly, "But this can at least be explained as love!"
"..." Kang Ruicheng did not continue the topic. He said "hmm" and signaled to Dongzi: "You can go."
When Dongzi left, Xu Youning was in the room helping Mumu take a bath.
When the little guy thought about Kang Ruicheng's promise just now, he couldn't help but feel very good. He played in the water and sang while taking a bath, his strange eyes kept wandering around, and there was a look on his cute little face that could not be ignored.
excited.
Xu Youning wrapped the little guy in a bath towel, led him back to the room, and asked him while dressing him: "Are you happy?"
"Yeah!" Mu Mu nodded several times, "Tomorrow is the first time daddy takes me out to play!"
Seeing Mu Mu's satisfied look, Xu Youning suddenly felt that many things... were actually not that important.
No matter what ulterior motives Kang Ruicheng had, she just wanted Mumu to be happy.
Mu Mu got dressed, jumped on the AA bed and rolled twice, looking at Xu Youning with a smile: "Aunt Youning, will you come with us?"
Xu Youning wanted to go with Mumu.
But...Kangrui City may not allow it.
Besides, she is pregnant with a child, so outdoor activities are not suitable for her. If she is careful after going there, it will arouse Kang Ruicheng's suspicion.
Xu Youning looked at the little guy apologetically and explained: "I feel a little tired and want to rest at home tomorrow. Can you go with daddy?"
Mu Mu really hoped that Xu Youning could accompany him. When Xu Youning said this, his face was full of disappointment.
But Xu Youning said that she was a little tired, so he would never force Xu Youning.
The little guy nodded and looked at Xu Youning seriously: "Then you have a good rest at home and I will tell you what fun things I did when I come back tomorrow!"
Xu Youning smiled: "Okay."
The next day, Mu Mu made a lot of noise and got up early, and dug up Xu Youning by the way.
Xu Youning checked the weather, prepared clothes and a hat for the kid, and sent him downstairs.
Kang Ruicheng had been waiting downstairs for a long time. When he saw Mu Mu coming down, he stretched out his hand towards Mu Mu: "Come here."
Mu Mu jumped up and ran over, took Kang Ruicheng's hand, and looked up at Kang Ruicheng in confusion: "Daddy, don't you invite Aunt Youning to go with you?"
Kang Ruicheng glanced at Xu Youning and said coldly: "Aunt Youning is not feeling well, we let her rest at home.
After Kang Ruicheng said this, Mu Mu had nothing to say. She waved her hand to Xu Youning and said in a sweet voice: "Aunt Youning, see you in the evening."
Xu Youning also waved his hand: "Be safe, see you tonight."
Kang Ruicheng held Mu Mu's hand, and seven or eight of his men followed behind him. The group quickly got into the car and left.
Kang Ruicheng and Mu Mu were in the same car, Dongzi was driving, and there were only three people in the car.
Mu Mu looked at Kang Ruicheng, hesitated, and then asked: "Daddy, did you have a fight with Aunt Youning again?"
Kang Ruicheng was a little surprised and glanced at Mu Mu: "How do you know?"
Mu Mu imitated an adult and shrugged: "You and Aunt Youning are both in a bad mood. I knew you must have quarreled again. Alas..."
Mu Mu's last sigh sounded very worried.
Dongzi concentrated on driving, but still couldn't ignore Mumu's little brat, and couldn't help laughing.
Kang Ruicheng glared at Dongzi, looked at Mu Mu and asked, "What do you think I should do?"
"It's very simple," Mu Mu said with a relaxed look, "As long as you don't quarrel with Aunt Youning! Just like me, I never make Aunt Youning angry, and I never quarrel with Aunt Youning, so
You Ning is the one who likes me!"
"..."
Kangruicheng has nothing to say.
When Mu Mu saw that Kang Ruicheng was silent, she couldn't help but wonder: "Daddy, are you curious about why I never make Aunt Youning angry?"
"..." Kang Ruicheng still didn't know what to say, so he said "hmm" in a muffled voice.
"Hehe!" Mu Mu smiled weirdly, "Let me tell you - because I am very good, I have never made Aunt Youning angry! Daddy, do you want to be as good as me?
"
"..." Kang Ruicheng lost to a child for the first time. He wanted to avoid the kid's gaze, but had nowhere to escape. He could only say, "I have something to deal with, so you can play alone."
"Daddy," Mu Mu didn't intend to let Kang Ruicheng go. She grabbed Kang Ruicheng's hand and asked, "Are you running away?"
Hearing this, Dongzi couldn't help it anymore, "Puch -" he burst out laughing, helped Kangruicheng out of the siege, and changed the subject, "Mumu, you have a playmate today, do you want to know who it is?
?”
"Huh?" Mu Mu's attention was suddenly diverted, and her eyes widened curiously, "Who is it?"
Mumu has not had any playmates or friends since she started remembering. Dongzi mentioned this, saying that he was curious and not as fresh as him.
playmate.
This was the first time this word appeared so vividly in his life.
Dongzi said: "It's a little baby, my daughter, her name is Nini."
Mumu blinked: "Is it a girl?"
"Yes." Dongzi followed the kid's words and asked, "Does Mumu like girls?"
Mu Mu straightened her back and said confidently: "I am a boy, of course I like girls!"
Of course, Xiaogui is still young and not so emotional, so he doesn’t like all girls in the world.
