Chapter 444 Everyone Has Their Own Pursuit
After getting out of the elevator, Yan Xin asked Chen Li: "Your son is back, why don't you give him a hug?"

Chen Li corrected: "That's not my son, there is no legal connection, I have done what I should do."

He not only did what he should do, but also what he shouldn't do.

Speaking of this, his expression was a little aggrieved.

Liang Wei gave birth to a child, and he took out more than 100 million.

Later, he bought such a house of more than 100 square meters. Although it was second-hand, it cost him more than one million yuan.

This child was not what he hoped to appear, he never thought about having a child, Liang Wei secretly conceived it, and then insisted on giving birth to it.

Just for such a child, he spent two or three million yuan. Most of the fathers did not do this. He felt that he was enough.

He still has to be criticized now, of course he is not convinced.

Yan Xin glanced at him: "Whether you admit it or not, he is your son, a biological son who is related by blood. Now that he lives in a community, I don't think you need to be so resolute in separating the relationship."

Chen Li said depressedly: "I have no idea of ​​having a child at all, and it gives me a headache to think about it. If I live here, I will cause trouble, and I might move to Pengcheng in the future."

He has many houses in Pengcheng, some of which are under renovation and have not been rented out yet.

If you want to move there, that's fine.

Yan Xin believed that he could do what he said, shook his head, sighed, and said:

"It's not necessary. You don't need to treat your child as a scourge. Maybe one day you will change your mind? After all, they are your own flesh and blood. Help if you can. There will be a way out then."

Chen Li smiled: "I have ten or twenty houses in my hands now. Even if I don't write novels in the future, I can live a leisurely life on the rent. I don't need children to take care of me, and I don't need this retreat."

"You don't need money, but maybe you need a relative to accompany you at that time?" Yan Xin said.

He had experienced the time when he had no relatives in his previous life, and he knew that feeling was particularly bad.

That's why he persuaded Chen Li to take a step back in life, not to make the relationship so rigid, and not to become enemies with that mother and son.

But Chen Li didn't seem to listen.

Yan Xin had no choice but to say no more.

There are some things that you need to reach a certain age to understand.

Some don't even understand at that age.

Everyone has their own pursuit of life and their own perception of life, which are not necessarily the same.

Force cannot be forced.

However, Chen Li just didn't express his affection for this child, but in terms of material things, he has indeed done enough.

Yan Xin had to admit this.

He is willing to spend so much money, and is willing to give a house, at least in terms of material, Chen Li is doing better than most fathers in this world.

It's fine to accompany her. Since people don't want to, there's no way to force it.

I can only say take your time.

Yan Xin couldn't be sure that what he insisted on was correct, so of course he couldn't blame Chen Li for anything.

At noon, having dinner with Ai Lili in a small restaurant outside, Yan Xin talked about going to pick up Liang Wei with Chen Li.

Before leaving, I had already told Ellie about this matter.

Now I just tell her the details of picking up Liang Wei.

He mentioned that Liang Wei looks a bit haggard now, like a woman in her 30s, much older than her actual age.

Ai Lili was a little worried: "I heard that having a baby is bad for a woman's health, but I didn't expect it to be so exaggerated. Will it really make people look ten years older?"

"Having a baby is definitely not very friendly to the body, but it should not be that exaggerated," Yan Xin analyzed to her, "I think the main reason is that she gave birth abroad alone, which is not easy. , and then it was the same thing with Chen Li, and she might not be in a good mood, so she looked extra haggard. Of course, there is another possibility that she flew here from thousands of miles, and she was too tired all the way. Looked so haggard."

When he said that, Ellie felt a little more at ease.

She wanted to give Yan Xin a baby, but if having a baby was that scary, she would hesitate a bit.

She is a girl, and girls are born to be beautiful, and she doesn't want to make herself look old and ugly.

Being older and uglier during pregnancy is tolerable, for love, for lovers, this price can be endured.

But if you are older than ten years, then you really have to hesitate.

Although I feel that being a wife should give birth to others, I still have some fears in my heart.

Yan Xin said that, which made her worry less strong.

Yan Xin gave another example: "Look at your mother, didn't she also give birth to you? Not only does she not look older than her actual age, she even looks younger than her actual age."

"Yes." Ai Lili couldn't help laughing when she thought of her mother.

Compared with those women of the same age, her mother does look much younger.

It doesn't matter whether you have a baby or you don't have a baby.

She thought that after she gave birth, she would learn from her mother how to maintain her figure, how to maintain her skin, and try to make her youth stay longer on her body.

Yan Xin also talked about Chen Li's attitude at the time, and he didn't have a word with Liang Wei during the whole process.

Of course, Liang Wei didn't say a word to him during the whole process.

Ai Lili frowned: "Why are others like this? Liang Wei is a girl and was abandoned by him, so she must be embarrassed to greet him proactively. He is a big man, so he should take the initiative. Are you afraid Lose face?"

Yan Xin said: "Maybe it's not a matter of face, but that he really doesn't want to have any more interaction with their mother and son?"

Ai Lili shook her head: "I don't think so. If he doesn't want to have an intersection, he can ignore it from the beginning. He doesn't need to send the 20 US dollars, let alone buy a house for someone later. It shows that he still recognizes this in his heart." Son's."

Yan Xin is also not sure about this: "Maybe it's just that he feels that he should be responsible for this matter? Anyway, there is no family affection on his face."

"Maybe," Ellie said, "but I think the possibility is relatively small."

Neither of them was a party, and they couldn't come up with a result after talking.

But during the meal, they also decided where to invite Liang Wei to dinner tonight.

He is more or less a friend, and has a relationship with Chen Li. He just came back from abroad and really wants to entertain him.

It seemed a bit stingy to entertain at home, so after they discussed it, they still decided to find a higher-end restaurant to welcome Liang Wei.

As for whether to call Chen Li over.

In fact, Yan Xin's idea was not to call him over, because he and Chen Li went to pick up Liang Wei in the morning, and the two treated each other as air, which made him, an outsider, feel extremely embarrassed.

If it is still like this at night, it will only embarrass everyone, and they will not be happy after eating a meal.

But Ai Lili had a different opinion, thinking that this was the first meal that Liang Wei brought the child back to eat with them. It would be a pity if Chen Li, the child's father, did not show up for this meal.

This sense of ritual should still be there.

Even if the atmosphere is embarrassing, the child's father must be present.

She also thought that when the time comes to take a group photo and include everyone in it, the children will not have so many regrets when they look at the photos in the future.

Moreover, she felt that Liang Wei still had some feelings for Chen Li, and she really regarded that man as the father of the child in her heart. If she didn't show up by then, she might feel very disappointed.

Rather embarrassing, don't leave so many regrets.

In the end, Ai Lili persuaded Yan Xin and decided to call Chen Li over at night.

In order to make the atmosphere more lively, Xiao Yin and Xiao Yuan were called over to have dinner together.

Xiao Yin, Xiao Yuan, and Liang Wei are also quite familiar. We used to have dinner together, and now that she's back, it's right to clean up her.

With so many acquaintances present, even if the couple felt awkward, they should restrain themselves a bit, so as not to let everyone down.

In the afternoon, Yan Xin and Chen Li didn't go to the gym to exercise, but went to buy a stroller and a rocker. They told him about it on the way and asked him to have dinner with him at night.

Chen Li frowned: "I don't even want to have anything to do with her, why do you want me to eat? It doesn't matter if I'm missing."

Yan Xin explained Ai Lili's meaning, that is, the welcome banquet should have a sense of ceremony, and the father of his child must attend, otherwise it would be too regrettable.

Chen Li was very depressed: "Do women like the sense of ritual so much? I don't have the same household registration with them. What regrets do I have if I don't attend?"

Depressed go depressed, but still agreed.

Both Yan Xin and Ai Lili meant the same thing. If he refused, it would be a little embarrassing for others.

Doing these things is also for the sake of his children, and in the final analysis, it is still for his sake.

It was for his consideration.

If you don't appreciate it, it seems a bit ignorant.

Although his EQ is not high, it is not that low either.

Two big men went shopping together and bought a shaker and a stroller.

Let the merchants follow them to deliver the goods to your door.

On the way back, Yan Xin also sent a message to Liang Wei, saying that they had bought something and would deliver it later.

Liang Wei didn't respond until they delivered the two items to the door.

I think he should be sleeping at this time.

——Flying for such a long time, I bought the economy class, and I am quite tired, and I still have jet lag, so I really need to take a break.

Choosing to send messages instead of calling is also out of this consideration-for fear of disturbing her to sleep.

If you don't sleep, you will see the message and reply when you send it.

If there is no reply, it means you are sleeping.

Anyway, he has the key to this room, so he doesn't need to disturb Liang Wei.

The things were left at the door, and the delivery man was asked to go back, then he took out the key and opened the door, and Chen Li and the two of them moved the stroller and the cradle inside.

Afraid of disturbing the mother and son who were sleeping inside, the two tiptoed around.

There was no sound at all in the room, the door of the master bedroom was closed, and I couldn't see what was going on inside, so I thought it was probably sleeping.

Otherwise, a baby who is only a few months old will not be so quiet.

The things were placed in the living room, and the two of them tiptoed out of the living room, and then closed the door gently.

Outside the door, Yan Xin sent another message to Liang Wei, telling her that her things had been placed in the living room, and also said which restaurant she would invite her to dinner tonight, so as to cleanse her up.

After sending the message, he followed Chen Li to leave the building and went back to their respective houses.

It was around four or five o'clock in the afternoon that Yan Xin received Liang Wei's reply:

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep and didn't hear from you. It made you so tired. I didn't even say thank you. I'm really sorry."

Yan Xin: "I was afraid of waking you up, so I sent a message instead of calling. We are all friends, so there is no need to be so polite."

He asked again: "Can you go out at six o'clock? Then I will ask Lily to drive you and go there together."

Originally, this work should be done by Chen Li, but judging from the awkwardness of the two of them, such a proposal is obviously not acceptable.

He is a big man, so it is not good to be too attentive to his friend's ex, he has to avoid that suspicion.

It is the best arrangement for Ai Lili to pick her up.

The two were originally friends, and both were women, so it was perfectly fine.

After a while, Liang Wei replied to him:
"Okay, let you bother."

Yan Xin: "Don't say such things, we are all friends. Well, you can talk to Lily about the specific time."

This ended the chat with Liang Wei.

The restaurant they ordered was not too far from the community, and it took only ten minutes by car.

Of course, it would be too far to walk.

Yan Xin didn't drive there by himself, but took Chen Li's car, and took Xiaoyuan there by the way.

They have also eaten at that restaurant a few times. It is considered a mid-to-high-end restaurant. The taste is not bad and the price is also suitable.

When they arrived, Ai Lili and Liang Wei were already waiting there, and with them was Xiao Yin, the assistant general manager of Starlight Entertainment Company.

When they arrived, the three women chatted happily, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

The child was not with Liang Wei, but was hugged by Ai Lili, and she didn't cry or babble, looking very happy.

When the three of Yan Xin and the others arrived, the smile on Liang Wei's face obviously restrained a lot, and then nodded and smiled at them again, saying hello.

He greeted Yan Xin and Xiaoyuan, but he didn't say hello to Chen Li.

"This child is so cute," Ai Lili said as soon as she saw Yan Xin, "I'm not very afraid of strangers. I hugged him, and he didn't even cry."

With that said, he stood up and handed the child to Yan Xin:

"Come and hug him, and see if he will cry."

Yan Xin has been a human being for two lifetimes, but he has never held a baby.

Now that Ai Lili asked him to hold the child, he was a little nervous, and said with an unnatural smile:

"How to hug? I'm afraid it will hurt him."

The body of a child who is only a few months old is too delicate, if he is held in the wrong position, he might break a bone, so he dare not act rashly.

Ai Lili taught him: "You have to hug like this, you have to wrap around here, be careful, yes, that's it."

Liang Wei taught her these things before, and now she will pass them on to Yan Xin.

Teaching him hand in hand, Yan Xin finally picked up the baby.

Be careful, as if holding a national treasure porcelain that can be handed down from generation to generation, for fear of accidentally breaking it.

I thought to myself: "I want to have children in the future, so let's take it as learning in advance."

The moment he took the baby, the expression on Chen Li's face became tense involuntarily. He looked at the baby in his arms, looked at his arms, and was afraid that this guy would not be able to hold the baby well, and the baby would fall down. .

Fortunately, such a terrible thing did not happen.

In fact, Liang Wei was also very worried at this time, so she watched Yan Xin's actions.

Seeing that Yan Xin was holding the child in the correct posture, he was relieved and looked elsewhere.

Accidentally, I made eye contact with Chen Li.

Then, both of them quickly looked away and looked away.

His expression was a little unnatural.

None of the people present found it.

Another person was holding it, but the child didn't cry, but was still giggling.

It made Yan Xin feel amazing, and said with a smile: "This kid is really nice, he doesn't make trouble at all, and he should be easy to take care of in the future."

Liang Wei smiled and said: "Yes, he is much more worry-free than other children, and many people praise him."

Speaking of this, I am quite proud.

Then his gaze could not help but shift to Chen Li.

He met Chen Li's gaze again, and then retracted it.

Yan Xin held the child and shook it a few times, then turned to look at Chen Li, and said with a smile: "This child is really cute, do you want to give it a hug?"

Chen Li was stunned: "I..."

Before deciding whether to accept or reject, Liang Wei walked up to Yan Xin, reached out to pick up the child, and said with a smile:

"You are quite tired from holding him. Let's put him in the stroller first and let him rest for a while."

When she came over, she brought the stroller with her so she didn't have to hold it all the time.

In the stroller, the child can sleep.

When a mother wants a child herself, Yan Xin has no way to refuse.

Originally, he wanted to create an opportunity for Chen Li to have close contact with the child, but now he can only give up.

Handing the child to Liang Wei, she even praised how cute the child is.

Liang Wei had a gentle smile on her face, but there was some soreness in her heart.

In fact, she didn't want to stop Chen Li from holding their child.

When Yan Xin said that to Chen Li, she was even grateful in her heart.

However, seeing Chen Li hesitating there, he felt miserable in his heart, so he simply stood up and took the child over.

She didn't want others to think that she was going to use this child and Chen Li for anything.

Next, Madoka also praised how cute the child was, and even teased the child a few times by the stroller.

Liang Wei also responded politely.

But her mood has become very depressed, and her mind is not on this anymore.
