Successor: Prosperous Marriage

Chapter 322 Great opportunity

Walking alone on the sidewalk, looking at couples of men and women passing by holding hands, Chu Xiaoxiao felt more than [-] points of hurt in her heart. She has been watching people on the Internet making fun of her as a single dog, and seeing others showing affection is stimulated , she has always dismissed it as an exaggeration.

But at this moment, she really felt that the gap was really painful.

With tears in her eyes, she tried to avoid the crowd as much as possible, and walked in a quieter place. She lowered her head, trying not to see those men and women who walked by affectionately.

At this moment, she was suddenly stopped by a childish voice, "Aunt Xiaoxiao! Aunt Xiaoxiao!"

Turning around suddenly, she saw Xin'er running towards her from not far away, and standing behind him was Ouyang Qing.

Chu Xiaoxiao froze for a moment, then ran over in a hurry, holding Xin'er in her arms, "Xin'er, why are you here? What a surprise, Auntie didn't expect to meet you here."

"It's fine after dinner, so I took him out to play. We just came out of the mall." Ouyang Qing said, shaking the bag in his hand, which was full of children's snacks and toys.

Chu Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. The former very cold vice president has now completely turned into a very family dad, which really made it difficult for her to accept for a while.

"Thank you for your hard work." Chu Xiaoxiao smiled faintly.

"That's what a child's father should do, shouldn't he? This is a bounden duty." Ouyang Qing smiled.

Chu Xiaoxiao nodded, and squatted down to communicate with Xin'er.

Ouyang Qing looked at Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes full of love, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Well, has Zhan Yuling gone to Vietnam?" Ouyang Qing asked in feigned surprise.

Chu Xiaoxiao nodded in embarrassment, and continued talking and laughing with Xin'er without making a sound.

"Oh, then you are at home alone, take good care of yourself, call me if you need something, maybe I can help you." Ouyang Qing smiled.

Chu Xiaoxiao stood up and twitched the corner of her mouth lightly, "I see, it's getting late, Xin'er, Auntie has gone home, I'll play with you some other day, okay?"

Who knows, Xin'er shook her head, hugged her leg and said, "No, I still have to play with auntie for a while, I'm going to play with auntie's house, Dad, can I go?"

Chu Xiaoxiao was stunned, she didn't expect Xin'er to be so attached to herself.

Ouyang Qing persuaded her a few words, but Xin'er still insisted on going, her eyes were red as she spoke, and she wanted to cry.

Seeing this, Chu Xiaoxiao hurriedly agreed, "I'll take him back, it's not far anyway, and I'll take him home later."

"Okay, then you call me later, and I'll come to pick him up, just in time for me to go to the company." Ouyang Qing smiled, reached out to pinch Xin'er's little face, and said, "Xin'er, Be obedient when you go to your aunt's house, and dad will pick you up later."

Xin'er got permission to go to Chu Xiaoxiao's house, and immediately clapped her hands happily, "Okay, okay, you can go to Aunt Xiaoxiao's house, hehe."

Seeing Xin'er's happy face, such innocence and cuteness is beyond the reach of adults, Chu Xiaoxiao felt a trace of sadness in her heart.

Chu Xiaoxiao returned home with Xin'er and started playing with him.

Being alone with Xin'er, Chu Xiaoxiao felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. In a trance, she felt that this was her child, but after she woke up, she told herself, no, her child has already died because of her own fault. Heart, not my heart.

After getting along for two hours, Chu Xiaoxiao felt that she couldn't let go of her heart, and wanted to be with him all the time.

Before Chu Xiaoxiao called Ouyang Qing, he had already come to take care of her.

"Xin'er, come on, Dad has brought you home, come to play with Auntie another day, okay?" Ouyang Qing squatted on the ground and opened her arms to Xin'er.

Xin'er hid behind Chu Xiaoxiao, shook her head and said, "I won't go, I want to sleep with auntie, I won't go."

"Xin'er, this is Auntie's house. Auntie is going to rest. She has to go to work tomorrow. Be good, we should go. Don't disturb her rest, okay?" Ouyang Qing explained patiently.

Helplessly, Xin'er just didn't listen, she shook her little head like a rattle, and kept talking that she was going to be with Chu Xiaoxiao.

Chu Xiaoxiao was also very helpless, on the one hand she wanted to keep Xin'er, but on the other hand she told herself rationally that Xin'er was Ouyang Qing's child and she was not qualified to keep him.

"Xin'er is good. Auntie will come to you tomorrow and buy you something delicious, is that okay?" Chu Xiaoxiao knelt down and gently rubbed Xin'er's arm.

But Xin'er burst into tears, yelling that she must be with Chu Xiaoxiao, Ouyang Qing frowned, and hugged Xin'er.

"No, no, I want to be with Aunt Xiaoxiao, Dad, I won't go..." Xin'er struggled and cried in Ouyang Qing's arms, wrinkling Ouyang Qing's high-end shirt a little while being pushed. up.

"Xin'er is good, we have to go home, listen to what Dad says, or Dad will be sad." Ouyang Qing persuaded Xin'er, nodded to Chu Xiaoxiao, and signaled him to leave.

Chu Xiaoxiao followed out, and said sadly, "Or..."

"It's okay, I'll take him back." Ouyang Qing rejected Chu Xiaoxiao's kindness, directly carried Xin'er into the car, started the car quickly, and sped away.

Through the car window, Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Xin'er's weeping face, feeling extremely uncomfortable, tears also fell down.

That's what it's like for a child to be separated from its mother, isn't it?Is every separation between mother and child so heartbreaking?

Chu Xiaoxiao rubbed the corners of her eyes, thinking of her heart again.

Several hours passed, and Xin'er's cry seemed to be still echoing in her ears. Chu Xiaoxiao's heart ached so badly that she couldn't breathe, so she picked up the phone and called Zhan Yuling, wanting to hear his voice , by the way, for a little consolation.

However, Zhan Yuling never answered the phone.

Chu Xiaoxiao put down her phone in disappointment, and after a while Zhan Yuling sent back a text message: I'm sorry wife, I'm talking to a client, I'll call you back later.

His hands hang down feebly, and two lines of cold tears rolled down.

Well, you are busy, so you don't have to answer me.

Thinking about it, Chu Xiaoxiao turned off her phone, got up and went to the wine rack to get a bottle of red wine, and poured herself a glass.

Her body had just recovered and she couldn't drink alcohol yet, but now she didn't care so much. She raised her neck and drank the whole glass of wine, and her body immediately became hot.

Chu Xiaoxiao slumped on the sofa and fell asleep in a daze.

Her whole body seemed to be pierced with steel needles, the pain made it difficult for her to breathe, she had nightmares again and again, but she couldn't wake up.

It lasted until nearly twelve o'clock, when Mrs. Zhang went upstairs and found her lying on the sofa, trembling all over.

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, you are sick, wake up, wake up..." Mrs. Zhang called Chu Xiaoxiao eagerly, shaking her awake.

Opening her eyes with difficulty, seeing that it was Mrs. Zhang, Chu Xiaoxiao felt a burst of disappointment in her heart. It was clear that in the dream it was Zhan Yuling sitting beside her, guarding her!
"Sister-in-law Zhang, I'm fine. I just...have a cold." Chu Xiaoxiao sat up with difficulty and forced a smile at Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang touched her forehead, frowned and said, "You have a fever, I'll get you medicine." After speaking, Mrs. Zhang hurried to find medicine.

Chu Xiaoxiao was so collapsed that her lower abdomen started to ache. No, her whole body hurts.

Ah Ling, why are you going to Vietnam, why!
At this moment, she was resentful in her heart. She didn't understand why Zhan Yuling went to Vietnam, was it just to fulfill his career ideals and ambitions?

Soon, Mrs. Zhang came over with hot water and medicine, "Come, take medicine, Xiaoxiao."

Chu Xiaoxiao took the medicine very cooperatively, and smiled reluctantly, "Sister-in-law Zhang, I'm fine, you go and rest, I'm sorry to make you worry about me at this time."

"Xiaoxiao, fortunately, I remembered that my pajamas were still drying on the balcony. I went upstairs to get them. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. How dangerous it would be for you to lie on the sofa all night like this!" Looking at Chu Xiaoxiao worriedly, he touched her cheek distressedly.

"I was a little tired just now, so I fell asleep on the sofa. I'm sorry Mrs. Zhang, I won't do this next time." Chu Xiaoxiao lied.

Mrs. Zhang sighed, but when she turned her head and saw the red wine glass on the table, she immediately exclaimed, "Xiaoxiao, you're drinking!"

"I... drank a little." Chu Xiaoxiao said embarrassingly.

Mrs. Zhang glanced at her angrily, and said, "Your health has just improved a little bit, you know you can't drink? Even if you're fine now, you can't drink alone. If you have anything to do, just tell me. Don’t be sulky alone.”

Chu Xiaoxiao rested her head on Mrs. Zhang's arms, closed her eyes, and silently enjoyed the warmth for a moment.

I thought I would be fine after taking the medicine, so I insisted on going to work the next day.

Unexpectedly, just after sitting in the office for an hour, she felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, and she also felt like she was on her period. She struggled to stand up, and wanted to go to the bathroom to deal with it, but unexpectedly, her legs were very weak , dizzy too.

She gritted her teeth and stood up while supporting the desk. Unexpectedly, just as she stood up, her eyes darkened and she fell to the ground.

Half an hour later, Ai Lili came to deliver the documents, and when she opened the door, she saw Chu Xiaoxiao lying on the ground. Her face was pale, her eyes were closed tightly, and her skirt was already stained red with blood.

"Xiaoxiao... Xiaoxiao... come here, help me!" Ai Lili cried out in panic, and quickly reached out to hold Chu Xiaoxiao in her arms, and touched her forehead, which was very hot, but She was trembling all over.

After Chu Xiaoxiao was sent to the hospital, Ai Lili called Zhan Yuling.

After the entertainment last night, Zhan Yuling hurriedly called Chu Xiaoxiao, but unexpectedly the phone was turned off all the time. He didn't dare to disturb Zhang Sou, so he waited until this morning before calling Aunt Zhang. On the phone, he felt a little relieved when he heard Mrs. Zhang said that Xiaoxiao was fine and had gone to the company.
