Indentured Marriage of the Chief Justice

Chapter 188 Pretending to be calm

"You're weird today!" Cheng Muqing was about to go out with two glasses of drinks and desserts, but was pulled back by Ling Chuan, "Your husband's ex-girlfriend came to your door, why are you so calm?"

"Ha ha!"

Cheng Muqing gave him a supercilious look, and then walked out with the tray in his hand, psychological OS wanted to say, if you can see my mother's forced calm, then it will be great!
"I'm sorry, because we're going out for you today, so I haven't prepared any snacks at home. I only have macarons. Will the children like it?"

Cheng Muqing brought scented tea to Li Xin, hot chocolate and macarons in front of the little boy, probably because he also has a child, so Cheng Muqing was more considerate and considerate to the children, and seemed to be more popular with the little boy. The little boy whose face was as ugly as Ling Chuan's since he came in actually smiled at Cheng Muqing.

Li Xin looked at his son beside him with a smile, then looked at Cheng Muqing gratefully and said, "Thank you, Li Xiang seems to like you very much. Because he rarely smiles at others."

However, Cheng Muqing felt that something was wrong with this child, and the tranquility that appeared in him was not what a child should have.

"Um, how old is the baby?" Cheng Muqing pulled Ling Chuan to sit down opposite Li Xin, to avoid embarrassment, he had to find something to talk about, if you want to come among mothers, the child is the best topic.

"Six. How long have you been married? Have you had any children?"

It was Cheng Muqing who asked the question, but Li Xin looked at Ling Chuan and answered it.

Ling Chuan didn't answer her for a long time.

The air in the whole environment was about to condense, and Cheng Muqing didn't want to talk to her. It was obvious that she didn't respect her actions just now.

But this is at her home, and they are guests.

Well, for Ling Chuan's sake of ignoring her, I'll give Li Xin some face and help you make things right.

"Well, we have been married for four years. The child is three and a half years old this year." Although she has rolled her eyes countless times in her mind, she still has to look like she doesn't know anything and entertains guests warmly. "Oh, the baby is staying at grandma's house these days."

"What's the matter to find this place?" Ling Chuan ended the dry topic with one sentence.

Li Xin bowed his head in silence for a few seconds, then looked up at the children beside him, and said, "That's right, I am a single mother, and my only relative in this world passed away half a year ago, so I took My child has returned to China to settle down, but recently I need to go to deal with my real estate in the United States. I need to stay in the United States for at least a week, and I am worried about entrusting the child to a nanny. The only person I know and is familiar with is you, so, I think..."

"no!"

Before Li Xin could finish his sentence, Ling Chuan directly refused.

"Ling Chuan, don't do this, Miss Li hasn't finished speaking yet, you are too rude!"

Although she didn't like Li Xin either, Cheng Muqing's good family education did not allow her to reject others so simply and coldly.

"I will not accept any request, so there is no need to listen to it!"

Ling Chuan understood, what Li Xin meant was to put the child with him and use the child as a bond between the two. Unavoidably, he would call him every day during this week, which would bring him and Cheng Muqing a lot of trouble. How much trouble, he can predict.
