Zhou Huiyi thought for a moment, then raised her head with gleaming eyes, "After we get married, will Tangxin call me mom?"
"Roxi is her biological mother and will be her only mother."
Unexpectedly, this man's answer was so firm and unfeeling. Zhou Huiyi smiled bitterly, "It's my fault. I know this is a drama. I was too involved in the drama. I volunteered to act with you, and I have to follow the script, right?"
?”
She stood up and felt dizzy because she moved too fast. She had nowhere to vent the anguish in her heart and just wanted to find a place to breathe.
"Huiyi, it's still too late for you to regret it."
"I don't regret it. As long as it helps you, I won't care about anyone even if I don't care about my life. You don't have to feel guilty. This is my own choice."
She knew it was a double-edged sword, but she was willing to stab herself because if she was in pain, he would be in pain too, so it was even.
Zhou Huiyi was pruning some pines and cypresses in the courtyard, and Lu Sheng received a call from Cui Dingtian.
"Lu Sheng, come and pick up the candy core. I probably miss you and am not too happy."
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
The car stopped at the door of Cui's mansion. From a distance, I saw a little girl carrying a panda schoolbag. Aunt Zhang held her hand and kept talking, as if to make her happy, but her little face remained calm.
The corners of his mouth were tightly pursed together, much like Lu Sheng's.
"Sugar core."
Lu Sheng laughed and waved to her.
"Dad." The little face that was still cloudy just now suddenly became clear. The little guy yelled "Dad" again and ran this way.
Aunt Zhang quickly reminded, "Tangxin, you can't run away."
Lu Sheng strode over, leaned down and picked her up.
The little guy hurriedly hugged his neck and pressed his face against his body, as if he had been wronged a lot, "Dad, don't you want me anymore?"
This sentence made Lu Sheng feel very sad. This time it was just an accident. He would not let his daughter get involved in the chaos between adults again. She only needed to be happy and be an innocent, cute and carefree child.
"Who bullied you, huh?" Lu Sheng touched her forehead with his nose, his tone was gentle and doting.
Tangxin shook his head, "No one bullied me. Grandpa was very kind to me, but I just miss my father."
She lay on Lu Sheng's shoulder and said pitifully, "Dad, I don't want to live in other people's homes in the future."
Although everyone is kind to her, there is no father, no mother, no little flowers here, and it is not fun.
"Okay, Tangxin won't go anywhere from now on and will just live in his own home, okay?"
She was like an electric villain whose power had been restored. She immediately became energetic and kissed Lu Sheng on the face. "Daddy is the best."
"Then let's go home now, okay?"
Candy core nodded her little head, and suddenly asked: "Where is mom?"
Luo Xi watched TV for a while and felt bored. She took out her mobile phone and looked through the photo album, where she took many photos of candy cores. When eating, sleeping, and playing, there was also a big selfie of mother and daughter.
The guy's smile was brighter than the flowers, and you could vaguely notice that he was missing two small teeth.
Luo Xi laughed while watching, and couldn't help but kiss the screen, her baby.
There is also a video of a little guy squatting there and playing with Xiao Hua. Xiao Hua is a parrot. Although it can only say "hello" now, its potential abilities are being continuously developed.
"What are you looking at? You are so happy." Lin Ziheng pushed open the door and entered, taking off his cotton clothes and placing them on the sofa.
"Look at my daughter." She raised the phone in front of him, as if to present a treasure, "Isn't she cute?"
Lin Ziheng moved his eyes closer. He had known that she had a daughter, but this was the first time he saw her. The little guy looked a little like her, and more like Lu Sheng. His naive appearance was indeed very cute.
"What's her name?"
"Sugar core."
"As his name suggests, he is a lovable little guy. If you have a chance, let me meet him." He sat down next to her, "I will tell you something even happier."
"Is there any news from Wu Xu?" Luo Xi immediately put away his phone and asked excitedly.
"Yes." Lin Ziheng shook the recorder in his hand, "Everything you want to know is here."
He put the recorder in her palm, "I don't know what is said in it, but you must be fully mentally prepared. Maybe the truth is more cruel than you think."
Otherwise, people who deliberately conceal this matter don't have to go to such great lengths to keep secrets. In this world, only dead people cannot speak, and only dead people can keep secrets.
Luo Xi held the small recording pen and was silent for a moment. Then she suddenly smiled at him and said, "Can I have a big meal first?"
Lin Ziheng was stunned at first, then sighed, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
"I'm here to treat you, okay?"
During these days in Los Angeles, he had always taken care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation, and all she could do was have a meal.
The two of them did not go to the restaurant to eat, but ordered takeout.
After Luo Xi paid the money, she looked back and saw Lin Ziheng lighting two tall candlesticks on the dining table. She smiled and said, "Don't you mind it?"
"It's good to create some romance occasionally." He stepped forward and took the packaging bag from her hand, "Would you like some red wine?"
"If there is candlelight, of course there must be red wine."
He opened the red wine and poured half a glass for her. The grilled steak on the dinner plate was still sizzling. Through the warm candlelight, Luo Xi raised the glass to him and said, "Thank you."
His eyes were extremely bright, especially looking at someone so affectionately, "You don't have to say thank you to me, I'm willing to do anything for you."
Luo Xi shook his head and still insisted, "Thank you, Zi Heng, you have done so much for me, but I don't know how to repay you. In fact, I am really selfish. In order to find out the truth, I asked you to leave China."
I flew for more than ten hours to a foreign country, and you must have spent a lot of money to get the information from there. I feel like I owe you more and more, but I can’t figure out how to repay it. If you
Wherever I am needed in the future, I will definitely go through fire and water. I don’t have a lot of money, but I can contribute, and I will definitely do my best when you need it.”
She talked a lot, just eager to express her gratitude.
Lin Ziheng picked up the cup and touched her lightly. With his smile, the clear voice struck the heartstrings, "Luo Xi, you are overthinking. I did all this in the name of a friend. Even if I don't
In pursuing you, we are just good friends. This is what I should do. There is no need to reciprocate between friends. What is owed must be paid back. Maybe in the future, I will have nothing. When that day comes, I will pay back.
I’m pointing you to take him in.”
He moved the wine glass to his lips, "However, I will accept your thank you."
Luo Xiwaner smiled, "Then I won't be polite."
This meal was very relaxed, it was truly a warm and harmonious relationship between friends. Lin Ziheng managed the relationship between the two of them perfectly, and would not push her too hard or push her. He knew that too much was too little, and he knew even better.
How much weight does the person between the two of them have?
After dinner, Luo Xi returned to her room with her voice recorder. Lin Ziheng sent her to the door without going in, "I will stay with you next door."
No matter what the outcome was, he wanted her to know that he would always be with her.
