Chapter 17

"We are here..." Before the little guy could say the last few words, he saw a grandma walking over.

Could this grandma be Aunt Xiaobai's mother?

"Grandma!" Zhan Zhan called out politely.

grandmother……

Ruan Bai followed Zhan Zhan's gaze and looked behind him.

The aunt, who is over half a century old, was wearing a white and pink Adidas sportswear, just passing by, but suddenly stopped in front of the three of them.

Mu Shaoling knew that this was not Ruan Bai's mother, so he didn't say hello.

"Auntie, what's the matter with you?" Ruan Bai was stared at by the aunt and didn't understand why.

The aunt let out an "ah", and while stretching her arms and legs to exercise her body, she looked at Ruan Bai who just came home.

Then he frowned earnestly and said, "Since a woman is married, she must learn to take care of her family. She can't starve your husband and children. Look at you, come back so late?"

This "your husband" is obviously referring to the man with a poker face.

Ruan Bai was embarrassed for a while.

She was about to explain, but saw the aunt looking at Mu Shaoling again, and accusing her bluntly: "You husband is also at fault. If you are unhappy, you will show a cold face to your wife. How do you make your son think of it?" You? These days, men also have to learn how to cook, and you can't expect your wife to do all the housework alone. You married a wife, not a nanny!"

Ruan Bai felt that the more the aunt talked, the more she went too far.

How could there be such a misunderstanding? !

It is clear at a glance that they are people from two worlds.

"Auntie, you misunderstood, we are just the relationship between the superior and the subordinate." Ruan Bai explained urgently.

The aunt who was about to speak suddenly stopped, and stared at Ruan Bai even more firmly.

After a while, the aunt opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything, she just looked up and down the man, the woman, and the child...

It doesn't matter if you quibble, who are you lying to?

At first glance, you have a special relationship with that handsome man!

It's really a decline in the world, and the morality is degraded. I didn't expect that there lived in this community a mistress who was taken care of by a rich man...

Ruan Bai, who was tagged as a "mistress" for no reason, watched his aunt leave, pursed his lower lip, but didn't know what to say to the father and son when he turned around.

Whether it is the big one or the small one, she is not familiar with it.

Ruan Bai knew what an unmarried woman should do. It didn't matter if she met men for work reasons, but in private, it was not appropriate to meet strange men at night.

Mu Shaoling suddenly looked down at his son beside him, and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter, hurry up!"

Ruan Bai turned around.

Mu Zhanbai blinked at the two adults respectively, not knowing what he was doing here... But, his father said he was here... and told him to hurry up!

Oh, he remembered!

But he was clearly called by his father to make soy sauce.

The little guy, with small arms and legs, struggled to move out two huge boxes from the dark place behind.

One box is light blue, the other is white, and it is tied with a satin ribbon.

"Auntie Xiaobai, this is a gift for you." After Zhan Zhan finished speaking, he was still afraid of saying the wrong thing and looking back at his father.

Mu Zhanbai is still small, he is a child after all, Ruan Bai only heard him speak, but didn't see his face.

Although he didn't want what Mu Shaoling gave him, seeing how tired the little guy was lifting it, Ruan Bai caught it temporarily, allowing the little guy to show his face...

Ruan Bai looked at the little guy who was looking up at her, and smiled friendlyly.

"Why did you give me this?" Ruan Bai asked the little guy at his feet, but he was waiting for his father's answer.

Ruan Bai didn't know, that cold man just happened to see the diamond ring she was wearing on her left middle finger...

Meaning, already engaged.

"Well... I don't know..." Mu Zhanbai no longer guarded against Ruan Bai, showing the innocent expression that a child should have, scratching his head, and looking at his father inexplicably.

"After finishing what you should do, let's go home!" Mu Shaoling said to his son, his deep and dark eyebrows glanced at Ruan Bai who was holding the gift box, and turned to leave.

Ruan Bai and Zhan Zhan looked at the man who left suddenly.

"My father..." Zhan Zhan wanted to say something, but halfway through, he closed his mouth in disappointment.

Ruan Bai was helpless, and said to him: "Auntie really can't accept this gift."

"Why?"

Why, she couldn't explain it to a five-year-old boy, and the child couldn't understand it either.

She could only find a reason that a child could understand and said: "You don't get paid for nothing."

After speaking, Ruan Bai smiled and put the big box in Zhan Zhan's hand.

"When your father is far away, go after him and help me bring the gift back to him."

...

At the gate of the community, a white Porsche sports car was parked on the side of the street.

The man sat on the driver's seat with a gloomy face, holding the steering wheel with one hand, and raised the other hand, passed the cigarette between his fingers to his mouth, and took a deep puff.

"Did you see the trash can behind you? Throw it in!" Mu Shaoling stared at the things his son carried back, and said coldly.

...

Go back to Mu's house.

Mu Shaoling stopped the car when he saw his son, who had been silent all the way, unbuckle his seat belt and jump out of the car.

The old man was drinking tea outside the yard. He was startled when he saw his little great-grandson get out of the car and then run into the house and upstairs.

"What happened to my little great-grandson? Who messed with it?"

The father and son have never had any conflicts in the past five years.

Mu Shaoling loosened his tie a little, walked into the villa with long legs.

"There is another woman pestering you, and we Zhan Zhan saw it?" Mu Shaoling's mother, Zhang Yali, came out to welcome her son's suit jacket, and tried to ask.

Mu Shaoling shook his head.

Zhang Yali couldn't guess what else could happen.

Usually, this is the only thing that makes Zhan Zhan unhappy.

Zhan Zhan and Ruan Ruan grew up under protection and had very little contact with outsiders. When they were younger, they didn't know the concept of a mother.

It wasn't until they got to know other children that the two brothers and sisters knew that other children not only had fathers, but also mothers.

When Zhan Zhan came home, he asked, "Where is our mother?"

The old man continued to lie to the children, saying that they did not have a mother.

But the five-year-old Zhan Zhan is very sensible, and the grandpa's lies obviously can't fool the child anymore.

Unable to grind the child's innocent and yearning eyes, the old man sighed and said, "Your mother has gone far away. If she comes back, great-grandfather will ask your father to take you to see her."

Only Zhan Zhan heard and remembered these words.

Zhang Yali handed her son's suit jacket to the nanny, who took it away.

Standing by the window, Zhang Yali looked downstairs in the villa. As Mu Shaoling's mother and the grandmother of two children, it was hard for her not to wonder who the child's mother was.

It's just that five years have passed since the incident, and I'm afraid no one will be able to find out the details of the transaction that year.

It's not that the mother didn't ask her son, but he didn't mention a word.

Deng Fang and Feng Chang, who used to be with their son, have also retired due to illness. Zhang Yali thought, if one day I drop by, I should go there, in case I can find out something...
