hard to let go

Chapter 11

There is ample time.She has survived for seven years, and there is nothing she can't wait for.

Leng Xi took a deep breath, holding Chu Hang's arm tightly with one hand, and the two walked slowly to the Chen family couple, "Mr. Chen, happy birthday."

Chu Hang looked indifferently, and said neither humble nor overbearing.

Chen Zhanbei looked at him with a little more appreciation in his eyes.He heard from Chen Xi that there was a new law firm in the city, and Chu Hang was the boss.

Leng Xi smiled just right, "Chen Xi, I don't even know what to call her now. I used to call you after me, but now?" She talked with a smile as if nothing had happened.

The corner of Chen Zhanbei's mouth raised, "You can no longer call me after Chenxi."

Everyone suddenly laughed.

Leng Xi pursed her lips, "Chen Xi is younger than me, she wants to call me sister, brother-in-law, what do you think of this name." She raised her eyebrows, her eyes shining brightly.

Chen Xi was silent and let them joke with each other.

Chen Zhanbei couldn't help shaking his head, "Xiaoxi, you are still the same as before, you haven't changed at all." He looked at Gao Ziqun calmly, and seeing his jaw tense, Chen Zhanbei knew that they were going to be together again. If we continue talking here, someone will explode.Then welcome them to their seats.

The meal was uneventful.Lengxi ate very little, most of the time, she was looking at Xixi.It can be seen that Gao Ziqun is very attentive to this daughter, paying attention to his daughter throughout the meal.

Xixi is very picky eater, she would turn her head and stare at Gao Ziqun from time to time when Gao Ziqun served her dishes, but Gao Ziqun just didn't notice and didn't say anything.Once upon a time, Gao Ziqun treated her like this.

Leng Xi secretly breathed out, looking greedily at her daughter's delicate expression.

She didn't even notice when Chen Xi came to her side. "In a while, I'll ask Shaochen to take Xixi upstairs."

Leng Xi turned her head slowly, she picked up the wine glass, the dark liquid was swaying, she took a sip slightly, her mouth was filled with the rich aroma of wine.

"Xiaoxi, the past—"

Before Chen Xi finished speaking, Leng Xi put down his glass, "Chen Xi, I'm going upstairs first."

Chen Xi looked at her back and shook her head helplessly.

When Chen Shaochen came to Gao Xixi, he said that he had something good to show her, and Gao Xixi said in a very fanciful manner, "I don't care about it, my father will buy it for me too."

What Gao Ziqun said was very helpful.

Chen Shaochen was hit hard and looked at Gao Ziqun.Gao Ziqun knew that his daughter was feeling awkward, "Let's go play with Shao Chen."

Gao Xixi reluctantly left the table.

"What do you want to show me?" Gao Xixi asked nonchalantly.

Following his mother's instructions, Chen Shaochen took Xixi to the study room on the second floor, "I will tell you when I arrive. You close your eyes. Only after I have agreed can you open them."

He gently pushed the door, pulled Xixi into the door, gestured a "V" to the people inside, and quickly evacuated.

Leng Xi's chest was like a high tide on the seashore, and the tide was violently fluctuating.

"Chen Shaochen, are you alright? I'm about to open my eyes—" Xixi said softly.Her words touched Leng Xi's tense heartstrings bit by bit.Leng Xi walked to her side step by step, slowly squatted down, and finally looked at the child at eye level.

Xixi slowly opened her eyes, her original words stuck in her throat for a moment, "Chen Shaochen—" Fen Dudu opened her mouth in astonishment, and remained motionless.

Leng Xi tried her best to control her emotions, stretched out her hand, and took her tender arm bit by bit, "Xixi—"

Under the warm light, time seems to stand still.

Xixi stared blankly at the person in front of her, who had the same pupils as hers. She had fantasized about being called that by her mother once before.Just now, she saw her while eating, but she still pretended nothing happened.

Leng Xi was undoubtedly nervous at this moment, "Xixi—" She didn't know what to say, but just called her name greedily and looked at the real her.

Little girl Gao Xixi slowly came to her senses, she took a big breath, her small chest puffed up slightly, and with a sudden force, she pushed over, "Don't touch me——"

Leng Xi staggered, her footsteps were unsteady in high heels, and she suddenly fell backwards. She quickly supported her with her hands, only to hear the sound of bones, and she frowned.

Seeing her painful expression, Xixi felt a little uneasy, "I'm going out."

"Xixi, wait--" Lengxi stood up slowly, with a painful pain in her wrist, she gritted her teeth and forced a smile, "Xixi, don't you want to see me?" ?”

Gao Xixi's footsteps stopped, and his face changed rapidly.

Leng Xi walked in front of her and looked at her, "Since Xixi doesn't want to see me, after I leave City D, I will never come back."

The little girl's eyes turned red in an instant, and tears fell down. She sobbed uncomfortably, biting the corners of her lips to keep from crying.This stubborn look seems to be enough for Leng Xi.

Lengxi stretched out her other hand and stroked her hair gently. Her hair was soft and had a faint apple scent, "Xixi, do you really not like mom? Don't you want mom?" Leng Xi's voice was choked with soft sobs.

Xixi raised her hand and touched her tears indiscriminately, "I hate you so much——"

Leng Xi half-kneeled on the ground, holding her in his arms with trembling hands, the smell of milk exuded from the child's breath, which made people feel inexplicably comfortable.

"It's mom who made a mistake, so can Xixi give mom a chance to correct it?" Leng Xi's tears were wet and blurred.

Xixi pursed her lips and snorted softly, but finally did not say any more words of rejection.

The corners of Leng Xi's mouth slowly rose, and tears flowed to the corners of his mouth, with a sweetness of comfort in the bitterness.

How long had she been looking forward to this moment, it seemed as long as a century.How many times this scene has played out in her dreams, she has lost count.

Lengxi hugged Xixi, and talked to her a lot, incoherently, and finally, both of them sat on the ground, you looked at me, and I looked at you.It's such a relief even if you don't speak.Maybe this is the blood relationship, and the deep entanglement cannot be separated.

"Where have you been?" Xixi asked softly with a nasal voice.

Leng Xi was moved, she softened her face, "Mom has always been working in City B."

"Then why don't you come back to see me?" Xixi asked straightforwardly, staring at her with piercing eyes.

Leng Xi was helpless, what should she tell her child.

"Are you divorcing my father?" Gao Xixi asked boldly.

Leng Xi was a little stunned, "No. Xixi, Mom will tell you about these things later."

Xixi raised her eyebrows, "Do you want to wait until I grow up? You are so strange, I know everything, okay?"

Leng Xi unconsciously twitched the corners of her mouth, "Yes, Xixi is the smartest."

The little girl was so praised by her mother, her cheeks turned red unconsciously, she was so cute that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Chu Hang leaned gracefully on the balcony on the second floor, he slightly raised his head, the rare and charming moonlight tonight made people calm down unconsciously.How long has he not admired the moonlight so much.

"Is Lawyer Chu very leisurely and elegant?" A voice suddenly sounded behind him, indifferent and arrogant.

Chu Hang turned around. Now he is no longer the young student he was back then. The maturity and stability exuding from him cannot be ignored.

Gao Ziqun squinted his eyes, walked to his side, raised his head slightly to look at the bright moonlight in the night sky.

"Mr. Gao, are you also interested in the moonlight tonight?" Chu Hang asked calmly.

Gao Ziqun didn't answer his question directly, he looked up at the night sky for a while, and said softly, "I only know that the men of the Chu family are so persistent."

Facing his ridicule, Chu Hang's face remained the same, "Mr. Gao?" He squinted his eyes. If it weren't for Gao Ziqun, he and Leng Xi would not be in the current situation.

In the past few years, he tried his best to transform Leng Xi into what he used to be, but he still couldn't make up for it.

"Lawyer Chu, if you want to fight with me, I would like to advise you to withdraw your thoughts as soon as possible." He said coldly, "My daughter will naturally live with me."

The hazy light and shadow intertwined darkly, Gao Ziqun's face was indifferent and without any warmth.

At this time, Leng Xi led Xixi out of the room, and Xixi saw her father from a distance. She looked at Leng Xi with some embarrassment, and then shouted, "Dad—"

Gao Ziqun turned around and his eyes fell on Xixi. From the beginning to the end, he never glanced at Leng Xi.

"Xixi, go home." He said coldly.

Xixi pursed her lips, exhaled, and said softly to Lengxi, "I'm going home with my father, you have to remember what you said to me. Um - goodbye."

Leng Xi nodded, "One promise, one promise."

The little girl cheerfully ran to Gao Ziqun, "Father, let's go home."

Chu Hang walked to her side, Leng Xi smiled at him, "Don't worry." Chu Hang nodded, "Let's go back too."

When the little girl left, she didn't forget that Chen Shaochen lied to her, and ignored Chen Shaochen. Chen Shaochen was depressed, and turned around and went back to the room angrily.

The happiest thing tonight was little girl Gao Xixi. Although she hadn't called out "Mom" yet, she let go of her guard and complaints towards Leng Xi bit by bit.

In the car.

The little girl hummed the song "Amen, a vine in front of me, Amen, a tender green sprout..." It can be seen that she is in a good mood.

Gao Ziqun frowned slightly, "Xixi, Dad has a headache."

Gao Xixi glanced at him, "Then I'll change the song."

"My dear mother, come home from get off work..."

Gao Ziqun's face turned dark, "Gao Xixi, you don't need to remind me."

Xixi fell silent, blinking her eyes slyly, "Dad, aren't you going to America? I'll go with her then."

"Who is she?" Gao Ziqun asked in a deep voice.

"It's her." Xixi couldn't say the word "Mom", "Don't pretend to be me."

"Do you think it's possible?" Gao Ziqun asked back.

Gao Xixi didn't care, "I won't go to America with you anyway, Wen Jun's mother is not my mother. Dad, you are very strange."

"Okay, let's go to your grandpa's house."

"No!" Gao Xixi was about to jump up, her little face turned red immediately, she was angry. "Grandpa will let me practice, dad—" She didn't want to suffer that.

She slowly wilted down, "I promise, I will come back to you as soon as you come back, okay? Dad, in fact, I really hope that you can be together."
