hard to let go

Chapter 24

"Mom, I don't hurt."

This soft and soft sentence swept Leng Xi's heart like a feather, but it instantly condensed her internal organs, and her heart seemed to stop beating.

A small hand was wrapped around her neck, and there was warmth in the palm.

Leng Xi clenched her teeth tightly, not letting herself cry out.She has been waiting for this "Mom" for too long. From the moment Xixi was born to the present, every minute and every second in the past, she has always fantasized about the day when she can hold her like this and listen to her calling herself "" Mother"……

Gao Ziqun slightly turned his face away and sighed silently.

Sunlight poured in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the afterglow of the setting sun shrouded them, adding a bit of unspeakable sadness for no reason.

Gao Ziqun was a little absent-minded, but a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Xixi, can you scream again?" Leng Xi choked up her voice, hugging her soft body with trembling hands.

Gao Xixi lowered her head slightly, her cheeks were flushed, she bit the corner of her lips lightly.Leng Xi waited quietly, and the time passed by every minute.Gao Xixi still didn't speak, Leng Xi knew she couldn't force her, so she breathed out, "Does your hand hurt?"

Gao Xixi blushed, and said softly, "Mom, it doesn't hurt." After finishing speaking, she threw herself into Leng Xi's arms.

Lengxi rolled up the corners of her mouth little by little, and stroked her back with her hands, "Xixi, do you know, my mother's heart is getting cold after waiting for this day." She couldn't help kissing Xixi's hair Silk kept telling herself that all this was real.Leng Xi's eyes were sour, and tears slowly rolled down the corners of his eyes.

The mother and daughter were sitting on the carpet in the living room talking, and those words seemed endless.

When Mama Lin brought the ointment, Leng Xi suddenly realized that Gao Ziqun had left at some point.She took the ointment and carefully applied it to Xixi's hands.

Gao Xixi smiled, "Grandpa said that Dad was often whipped by a cane when he was a child, but Grandpa spanked Dad's butt, and Dad spanked my hands."

Leng Xi smiled, "Why didn't you write the homework for the National Day?" She turned pale.

Gao Xixi stuck out her tongue, "Mom, I miss you."

What else can you ask Lengxi to say?The little girl's mouth was as sweet as honey, and Leng Xi straightened her hair, "I can't do this in the future. No matter how good the grades are, the homework is easy to write. This is the minimum respect for the teacher, and it is also an attitude towards life. "

Gao Xi looked forward to her with a positive and serious expression.

Leng Xi felt a little embarrassed, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Gao Xixi smiled cheerfully, "Mom, I feel like a dream."

"Silly boy--"

"I dreamed of you when I was young, but I can't remember." She shrugged, "Mom, don't leave me again, okay?"

leave--

Leng Xi's expression gradually froze. She hoped to be with her daughter for the rest of her life.But given the current situation, how long will it take for them to reunite?

Gao Ziqun changed his clothes and came downstairs, and happened to hear Xixi's words.He looked at Leng Xi, his long hair was neatly coiled behind his head, and his face was calm, with a pensive expression at the moment.

Sensing his scrutiny, Leng Xi suddenly raised his head and saw that he had changed his clothes, looking fresh and clean.She quickly looked away.

Gao Xixi naturally also turned her head. When she saw her father, she pouted slightly, a little angry.Her palms were still burning hot.

"Let's eat." Gao Ziqun said lightly.

Gao Xixi rubbed his belly, he was indeed hungry.She raised her eyes to look at Leng Xi, the meaning was obvious.

Leng Xi didn't want to sit at the same table with Gao Ziqun, but actually she wanted to take Xixi out to eat.

"Mom, can you stay and have dinner with me?" Gao Xixi asked softly.

Leng Xi's heart seemed to be pulled by something, and she took her hand and nodded.Gao Xixi was happy again in an instant, and took her hand to the restaurant.

"Wow, there are so many dishes tonight." Gao Xixi exclaimed.

Gao Ziqun sat at the front, Xixi sat at the side, and Lengxi sat next to her.

This moment was what Gao Ziqun and Gao Xixi had been looking forward to for a long time.

Leng Xi looked at the dishes on the table, and suddenly she felt a chill in her heart.She restrained herself from withdrawing her thoughts, and kept feeding Xixibu vegetables. After a while, she simply picked up the chopsticks and started feeding.

Gao Ziqun couldn't bear to read, "Gao Xixi—"

Gao Xixi shrank back immediately, "Mom, I'll eat by myself." She obediently took the bowl from Leng Xi's hand.The child eats well, doesn't talk much, and moves gracefully.

I have to say, this is very similar to Gao Ziqun.

Dazed, Gao Xixi picked up a meatball and put it in Leng Xi's bowl, "Mom, the meatball is very good."

Leng Xi smiled sweetly, his eyes flooded with water in an instant, and his heart was filled with emotion.

"Your mother doesn't like meatballs." Gao Ziqun said to himself, "Do you think everyone likes meatballs as much as you?" He raised his eyebrows.

Leng Xi tilted her head and looked at his eyebrows, so he remembered everything.

Gao Xixi didn't believe it, and stared at Leng Xi, "Mom?"

Leng Xi picked up the meatball and put it in her mouth, "Mom likes it very much." For the first time in her life, she felt that the meatball was so delicious.Just because her daughter clipped it for her.

Gao Xixi watched Leng Xi eat the meatballs, then turned her head and smiled at her father, like a peacock spreading its tail.

Leng Xi looked at her with a quiet smile on his lips.This dinner was extremely warm for the mother and daughter.Gao Xixi patted her bulging stomach, "Mom, I'm so full."

Leng Xi Chongni smiled, "Let's go for a walk in a while."

Gao Ziqun said coldly, "Go and wash the dishes to help with digestion."

Gao Xixi twisted her body, "Mom, let's wash the dishes together."

Leng Xi would naturally agree to her daughter's request.

Gao Ziqun frowned, he sat there motionless, but his eyes moved with their walking.

In the evening, Gao Xixi asked Leng Xi to accompany her again. The little girl was very energetic, and she still didn't feel sleepy after Leng Xi told five stories.Finally Lengxi sang again:

low black sky

Bright stars follow

Bugs fly, bugs fly

who are you missing

The stars in the sky are crying

Withered roses on the ground

cold wind blows, cold wind blows

as long as you are with me

insects fly, flowers sleep

One pair after another is beautiful

not afraid of dark

I'm afraid of heartbreak

Tired or not

Regardless of the north, south, east, west

While singing, Leng Xi caressed her body.Gao Xixi held her hand tightly, and when she was in a daze, she murmured, "Mom, don't go—"

Leng Xi pursed her lips and sighed.

After coaxing her daughter to sleep, it was time for her to leave.Turning around, I didn't expect Gao Ziqun to be standing at the door of the room.He stood there motionless, "Can we have a talk?" It was rare to hear such a consultative tone from his mouth.

He was obviously very close, but she felt that his eyes were so deep that she couldn't understand.

Lengxi got up slowly, walking softly, afraid of waking Xixi up, she went straight to him, then raised her hand to turn off the light. "Let's go."

Gao Ziqun paused, and instead of going downstairs with her, he walked into the room and lightly turned on a desk lamp.The room was instantly filled with warm light.

Leng Xi subconsciously clenched her fingers, unable to tell what it was like.

Gao Ziqun had already walked to her side, and she asked about the light scent of body wash exuding from his body, which smelled very good, but at this moment she suddenly hated it.

In the quiet living room.The two sat at one end of the sofa, silent to each other.After a long time, Gao Ziqun pulled out a box from under the coffee table and pushed it in front of her.

"What?" In fact, there was a picture on the box, and she already knew what it was, but she still wanted to ask.

"Mobile phone." His eyes suddenly shone brightly, "I'll pay you."

Before she had time to buy a mobile phone, she used her mother's mobile phone to contact Chu Hang last night.The current mobile phone is cold and used before, and she just reapplied the card in the morning.

"No, I already have it." Leng Xi said lightly.

Gao Ziqun rubbed his brows, "Today's event really exceeded my expectations. Tell me, should I congratulate you now, mother and daughter recognize each other."

Leng Xi pursed the corners of his lips, laughed, and his eyes became a little more distant, "It's not up to you."

Faced with her thorny words, Gao Ziqun remained calm, "You have also seen Xixi's desire and attachment to you—" He raised his lips, "What do you think I should do now?"

Leng Xi suddenly raised a mocking smile, "You can give me Xixi's custody."

"You know it's impossible." Gao Ziqun replied seriously.

Leng Xi stood up, "Gao Ziqun, nothing is impossible in this world. No matter how powerful you are, you can't control everything."

Gao Ziqun narrowed his eyes, yes, there are too many things that he can't control, such as her, such as the child back then... But this time, he will control it well.

"Hold the phone, Xixi's photos are all stored in it." He said lightly, "It's just a phone, do you think it's a bomb?"

"You don't need to provoke me." Leng Xi smiled coldly, "I will accept the phone, but you owe me."

Gao Ziqun hooked the corner of his mouth, and his voice was a little erratic, "I find that you are much cuter now than before, but you still have to learn a lot from your daughter."

Leng Xi frowned slightly, "Mr. Gao, I have to say, you are still the same—" After she finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the door.

"Xixi wakes up tomorrow morning and can't find you. I don't guarantee what will happen to her." Gao Ziqun's voice floated over.

Leng Xi paused, hesitated for a moment and said, "I will come over tomorrow morning."

"Why bother, your room is still there." His voice was a little lower.

Leng Xi smiled bitterly, "No need." She looked into the distance, "Actually, I don't want to come here at all." What kind of mood has he lived here these past few years?

Leng Xi didn't want to know either.

Seeing that she still wanted to leave, Gao Ziqun took the car keys, "I'll see you off."

"No need, someone will come to pick me up." Leng Xi walked straight towards the door.
