After listening to Chu Yifei's words, Leng Xiao couldn't express his feelings.
It was weird, as if he had a slight feeling that he was sorry for him.
As a brother, he was willing to give up Susu to him, so why wasn't he willing to let go and give up Susu to him?
Perhaps, he is the more selfish one. Brothers can give anything to each other, even the woman he loves, but he cannot give her away.
So he successfully got the woman he loved, but Leng Xiao also lamented that after getting that woman, he was also hurt a lot.
"There is no airtight wall in the world. Are you sure you can keep it a secret?" From the moment Leng Xiao knew about it, he decided to tell Su Su.
So whether Chu Yifei wants it or not, he has to say it.
"Actually..." Chu Yifei sighed, "Even if Su Su knows now, it doesn't matter. It's just that I'm afraid that after she finds out, she will think that my kindness to her was all hypocritical, and that I was always in love with her before.
I deceived her just because I didn’t want her to misunderstand my past feelings for her, so I kept it secret until now, even though now... my feelings for her have gradually faded away."
"Your son is very sensible." Leng Xiao suddenly changed the subject.
When he mentioned his son, Chu Yifei raised the corners of his lips slightly and smiled.
He smiled so much that his eyes were full of happiness and satisfaction that he had never noticed.
"Yes, he is very sensible. Since I arranged for the mother and son to live together, I have visited him almost once every three days, 365 days a year. Most of the time, he called me and called me daddy.
To be honest, I still care about that child, but..."
I don't know what worries he had in his heart, but Leng Xiao could tell that he was hiding something and was unwilling to say it out so that he could share it with him.
Maybe it's something about his child's mother, or something else.
He couldn't understand his current mood. Although he could understand that he secretly concealed the existence of the mother and son, he couldn't understand why he treated the mother and son so coldly.
Sanyi seems to be a very virtuous and kind-hearted woman, about the same age as Susu. Although she looks a bit more rigid in appearance, she is a standard and loving mother, as well as a considerate, reasonable and good wife.
Such a woman is the most suitable wife. Why can't Chu Yifei treat them well when the deal is already done?
"Oh, don't worry about this, let's have a drink!" Chu Yifei suddenly laughed and raised his glass to touch Leng Xiao.
Leng Xiao took a sip of wine quietly, put it down, looked at Chu Yifei, and said solemnly: "I have something to discuss with you."
Chu Yifei nodded while drinking, "Well, you say."
"Whether you agree with this or not, I will definitely tell Susu when I go back. But I guarantee you that if she knows that you have a wife and children, she will never misunderstand your feelings for her. On the contrary
, she may feel that she doesn’t owe you that much. If she is willing to be honest with you, don’t blame yourself in your heart. After all, we are not young anymore. We should all have a happy family of our own, right?
For myself, for those poor and innocent children who have been born without a father or a mother."
Thinking of the former Ning Ning, who was ruthlessly taken away from her mother by him since she was born. No matter how good he was to his daughter during the years when he was away from her mother, no matter how much love he gave her, he could never make up for the gap in her heart that lacked maternal love.
.
Therefore, he deeply felt the sadness deep in Chu Yifei's son's heart.
Without a father, even if there is a father, but the father does not love him, he will feel that he is a wild child, a child who has no father.
His mentality was just like Ning Ning's back then.
His words infected Chu Yifei.
I saw him taking a few sips of wine depressedly, then raising his head, staring at Leng Xiao with blurred eyes.
"You are right, the children are all innocent. Maybe after so many years, I should be more generous and forget about the deception that San Yi once had on me."
He took a dull sip, reached out and grabbed Leng Xiao's hand, and smiled boldly, "Brother, how old is your daughter?"
Leng Xiao suddenly had a bad premonition and frowned at him, "It's five years old!"
"Let's do this. I will take my son back to where I live right away. We will take them out together some other day and have a good chat. The biggest regret in my life is that I did not get the woman I love, so you must promise me,
When your daughter grows up, she will marry my son and be his wife."
Since he doesn't have the ability to marry Su Su, he might as well let her daughter be his daughter-in-law. If Ning Ning really becomes his daughter-in-law, he will raise the child as his biological daughter.
So, this is his only wish now.
Unexpectedly, Leng Xiao threw a punch and hit him hard on the chest.
"You want to use Ning Ning to get a higher position in front of me, but I have nothing to say about this matter. Nowadays, marriage is about free love and starting a family. If I really agree, what if my daughter doesn't like your son?
Will I no longer be a sinner?"
Chu Yifei glared at him, "My son is so handsome. He will definitely be better than him when he grows up. Is it possible that Ning Ning doesn't like him?"
Seeing that guy's narcissistic look, Leng Xiao laughed and said, "Let's talk about it then!"
"No, it's settled like this. Also, don't tell Susu yet. I'll arrange it someday and we'll go out together for two days. Then I'll tell her in person."
Leng Xiao smiled and said nothing.
Chu Yifei stretched out her foot and kicked him, "Don't look so sullen. Don't say that. If you do, I'm not done with you."
Leng Xiao was kicked in vain, but he still smiled and said nothing.
Chu Yifei was speechless. After two drinks in the restaurant, they left separately.
When Leng Xiao returned home, a fragrant smell of food hit his nostrils, and his daughter ran to his feet, hugged his thigh and shouted happily, "Dad, are you finally back?"
Leng Xiao knelt down, picked up his daughter, and kissed her hard, "Where's your mother?"
"Mom is in the kitchen."
Leng Xiao put down his daughter again and greeted her, "Ning Ning will watch a cartoon first. Dad will go to the kitchen to help mom."
"good."
Seeing his daughter happily running back to the sofa in the living room, Leng Xiao smiled, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Liusu's busy back caught his eye.
He stood quietly at the door and looked at her, watching her cooking vegetables and stewing soup. He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. It was so weird that he felt uncomfortable.
It turns out that when a woman reaches the age of 25, she will really grow up.
In Leng Xiao's memory, this woman could not even distinguish between pots and pans, let alone cook. Even when they were getting along five years ago, the food she cooked might not be edible.
.
But in five years, he won't have to taste the food she cooked. Just smelling it will make him feel his appetite increases.
And looking at her being busy in an orderly manner, she is obviously very skilled. How did she get here in the five years he was gone? How did she learn to cook?
"Ah? When did you come back? Didn't you say there was something going on at the hospital? Are you finished?"
Liusu turned around with the plate in hand and almost bumped into Leng Xiao's face.
He smiled at her tenderly and said, "I'm done, thank you for your hard work!"
Hearing the words "hard work" made Liusu feel very good.
This sentence should be what she said to him. Over the years, the only meal she cooked for him was, and he said she worked hard. So what did he do to himself before?
She pouted and nodded, suppressing the emotion in her heart and nodding, "Go and wash your hands, we'll have dinner soon."
He smiled, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, then walked around and entered the bathroom.
at the same time
Chu Yifei came back from outside and brought some of the children's favorite sweets, and also brought a portion to Sanyi.
Pushing the door open and walking into the ward, when San Yi saw him, she timidly stood up and stood aside with her head bowed, not daring to say a word.
Chu Yifei felt bad when he saw that she was still so afraid of him.
Fortunately, the child was not afraid of him and called him softly, "Dad!"
"Ai!"
Chu Yifei responded, walked over and handed the food to Sanyi, "Have you been hungry all day? Eat it while it's hot."
Sanyi was so surprised that she raised her head and looked at him in disbelief. She was a little flattered when he suddenly looked so kind to her.
"What are you still doing? Eat it while it's hot." He secretly ordered.
"Thank you." She hurriedly took it and said thank you politely.
Chu Yifei was not happy to hear that thank you, and his face darkened again.
Sanyi took the food and prepared to feed his son first, but unexpectedly heard Chu Yifei say, "Eat yours, he has it here."
Then regardless of San Yi's surprised look, he picked up the bowl, picked up the spoon, and began to feed his son.
It was the first time that Chu Xiao was fed by his father and had such close eye contact. At such a young age, he still felt a lot of emotion and inexplicable excitement in his heart.
When he took the first bite of food from his father, he couldn't help crying.
Chu Yifei stared at him curiously and asked, "You're so good, why are you crying?"
Chu Xiao hurriedly wiped away her tears, "No, Xiao Xiao just put in eye drops."
"..."
When children lie, their eyes are always evasive, and Chu Yifei can see through it at a glance.
But he didn't expect that a child of such a young age would actually know what it meant to be touched. He just fed him a mouthful of food, and he was actually moved to tears.
When he saw the child crying, he felt even worse.
Thinking about the only time in so many years that he had treated his son like this, a flash of anger suddenly emerged in his heart, and he wanted to slap himself twice.
What were you doing earlier? This is your own child. I dare you to ask, is there any father in the world who treats his own child like this?
Chu Yifei suddenly felt so regretful that he only came to care for him now.
But fortunately, he still has a chance, and there are many opportunities to make amends for him.
So son, don't be moved, dad will never leave you again.
