”Breakfast is here, Uncle. Come out and eat!”
Ye Ci served breakfast. Seeing that the uncle was still in the washroom, she could only go take a look.
”What's wrong?” Why does Uncle look a little sad?
Xiao Bu Dian turned his head around and looked at the young girl at the door.
She really was a little girl. She was twenty years old, and at the prime of her life, not only did pregnancy not make her ugly, but there was also a kind of charm to her that belonged solely to her mother.
As for him, he was only thirty-three years old, but his white hair was already out.
He felt that he was still very young, so how did things suddenly turn out like this?
If the morning's blow was just a warning to Xiao Huai, then when people mistakenly thought of him as father and daughter, it was a blow to Mr Xiao's heart.
At that time, the waitress from the shopping mall had a very amiable attitude and spoke in a friendly tone. She said enviously to Ye Ci, ”Bringing your pregnant daughter to buy things, your dad really loves you.” Your husband, why isn't the father with the child when he's pregnant when he's out shopping? It's too irresponsible. ”
Xiao Bu Dian had just returned from settling the bill and was about to tell Ye Ci to leave. However, he did not expect to hear these words, he immediately became dispirited and could not bear to see it. He directly said, ”He is not my father, he is my husband.”
The waiter turned around and looked at Mr Xiao in disbelief. Then, he looked at Ye Zhi, and out of professionalism, he complimented: ”It's very fitting. Hur Hur.”
He raised his head, and his gaze darkened. He was still the strong and imposing Mr Xiao, the man who could turn the tide in S City. He walked straight to Ye Wuqing's side, picked up the things that were already packed, and asked, ”Can we go now?”
”Let's go!” With a rare cooperation, Ye Ci caught his arm and the two of them walked out of the mall under the gaze of the waiter.
He could hear the discussions behind him from a distance.
”What? There's so much difference? He must have taken a fancy to that man's money. Just look at the black cards that he just swiped.”
”That's not it either. It's a great match. Uncle Loli, it's so good.”
”Uncle Lolita, that's a romance novel. Don't you think about it? This is the real world, there's so much difference in age, how could they truly love each other?”
”I can tell that uncle looks pretty handsome, with his high nose and phoenix eyes, he definitely isn't an ordinary person.”
”No matter how handsome he is, that was in the past. He's already old …”
Mister Xiao secretly recorded the name of this shopping mall that he had never been to before into his heart. He took a look at the little girl beside him, then left with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
The shopping mall wasn't far from the apartment building, and the weather wasn't too hot either. Since Xiao Bu Dian had sincerely suggested taking a walk, Ye Zhi didn't object to it. He was just curious to know what his company's business would be like if he stayed here with him.
Mr Xiao said lightly: ”They have a group of think-tanks. Unless it's a major decision, they can make it.”
”You trust them.” If he continued to exercise power like this, according to what she knew, not even the shrewd and scheming Old Master Rong would dare to do so.
”There's no doubt that I don't need them. They have followed me for many years, so of course they are trustworthy. If he were to try to usurp the position of Emperor, he would have long done so. A few months ago, my heart was dead. That was the best opportunity, and they were only diligently guarding the company. They didn't have any other intentions, so what else could they do now? ”
A few months ago, when Shen Liang and Xia Gang had just disappeared.
She believed his words, so she was afraid that her heart was not just dead. She had seen his photos on the internet before, and they couldn't be compared now. It was as if she had become a completely different person.
She still remembered the way he looked at her when she met him at the Rong family, like a zombie suddenly being injected with a soul. As one could imagine, his days in those few months were definitely not easy.
When she thought of this, her heart ached with jealousy again. She felt sorry for her uncle who had suffered so much and envied her that a mere Shen Liangxia was enough to make him fall in love with her.
”There's a car following us.”
Xiao fete suddenly spoke out. Ye Zhi wanted to turn around to look, but was held by Xiao fest by the shoulders.
”Don't turn your head, hit the grass to alert the snake.”
”Although this is not the city center, but there are schools and shopping malls nearby. With such a large crowd, even if they had some plans, they wouldn't act rashly.”
”Could it be a misunderstanding? Why are they following us?” Ye Ci could not understand.
”No, this car was at the apartment last night, I actually saw it. But I didn't notice it then, when we came out in the morning and he was following us, I thought it was along the way, but now it's obviously not the case.”
”Who could it be that wants to follow us?”
Something flashed through Ye Ci's mind, and she cried out involuntarily, ”Could it be her?!”
”Who?”
”A woman who looks exactly like me.” The little woman frowned as she looked at Xiao Yan with enthusiasm: ”According to what she said, it seems like the two of you once had a relationship. Xiao Bu Dian, tell me, what relationship do you have with each other?”
