323 Repetitive Defeat! (1/2)

Afterwards...

'Vroom…'

The year-end was about to come and everyone was very excited about it which could be noticed by seeing the extra numbers of cars on the highway.

Since many companies had given holidays to their employees, many of the families and couples were rushing to the market and towards the tourist spots excitingly and in a leisure manner to buy gifts for the new year and to enjoy their holidays respectively completely unlike the strange atmosphere formed in this Land Rover Car.

An awkward kind of silence was engulfed in the car that even though Mo Lingtan seemed to be focused on the road but his side-eyes were continuously staring at this little boy who was quietly sitting beside him yet this little boy knew that his newfound father was continuously looking at him.

However, this little boy pretended to not notice his newly found father's stares.

Usually, Mo Lingtan didn't drive, either a chauffeur or Qi Zhu drove for him, but today's matter was personal so Mo Lingtan didn't bring anyone with him.

Therefore, he needed to be focused on the road as he couldn't afford any kind of mishap as now his son was sitting beside him in this car.

His son.

What a strange word.

And this strange word couldn't let Mo Lingtan's mind calm down. Many things were running in Mo Lingtan's mind.

Xia Xiulan's miserable story…

Xia Reng's parentless past life…

Xia Reng's hatred for Mo Qiwn…

Lee Xuiye's unexpected reaction upon seeing her new son which came in her life without having her know about it. Mo Lingtan didn't know how she would behave.

Whether she would accept this child?

If yes, it would be a good thing but…

If not, then Mo Lingtan didn't know what to do with this child as he couldn't counter Lee Xuiye's opinion, if her opinion would make sense.

Sigh!

Another complicated thing was happening in their lives.

…

”How old are you?” Mo Lingtan asked to chase away this awkward silence.

”I will be 10 after this new year.” Xia Reng replied in his innocent voice yet stern tone.

”And...Which...which school do you go to?”

”I study at home. Ms. Jenny was my teacher.”

”Was?”

”She went back to France. Although she promised to teach me here, she didn't fulfill it and went back.” Xia Reng said hatredly.

He hated people who wouldn't fulfill their promises.

”She must have her reasons.” Mo Lingtan tried to reason out. Though this little boy was not looking at him, Mo Lingtan understood his hatred after hearing this little boy's hateful tone.

”Then she shouldn't have promised me in the first place.” Xia Reng retaliated.

With that, the conversation between newly form father and newly form son had died out as Mo Lingtan didn't know what to do as he neither knew Ms. Jenny nor Xia Reng.
