Two knocks on the door saved Zhao Yuan from self-pity.Zhao Yuan quickly regained her composure and turned around to ask, "Who is it?"

"Mom, it's me." Outside the door was the voice of his son Xia Jue, who was in the period of changing his voice, and it was very recognizable.Zhao Yuan got up and opened the door, and saw the small figure of her son standing at the door.

Xia Jue just came back, still wearing formal attire.Wearing adult clothes at a young age is very awkward, but Xia Wuchang insisted on letting Xia Jue dress like this.A young man in his teens, who had just entered high school, was unexpectedly called by Xia Wuchang to deal with some company affairs.He also said that children from rich families will be exposed to these things since they were young, and Xia Jue was late enough.Zhao Yuan was quite critical of this.She mainly felt sorry for her son's body, and felt that his son should not be polished in these whirlpools at a young age.

"Are you back? Have you eaten yet?" Zhao Yuan asked while touching her son's face.

"No, I just came back. Aunt Wu is warming up my meal." Xia Jue said in a low voice.

Seeing her son's exhausted appearance, Zhao Yuan felt even more distressed, and her eyes were moist.Zhao Yuan hurriedly pretended to be sleepy and yawned, covering up her tears, and said to Xia Jue, "Hurry up and change your clothes to eat."

"En." Xia Jue nodded, turned and walked towards the room diagonally opposite the door, which now belonged to him.

Seeing her son returned to the room, Zhao Yuan also closed the door, secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at her clothes in the floor-to-ceiling mirror and saw that there was nothing wrong with her clothes, then put on a smile, opened the door, and prepared to go downstairs to face Xia Wuchang's old face.

Xia Jue changed clothes very quickly, and when Zhao Yuan went out, Xia Jue had already changed into the home T-shirt and shorts.Zhao Yuan looked at Xia Jue's appearance, and felt that this was what a teenager should look like. What's the matter with dressing like a real estate salesman?

Xia Jue looked at the somewhat stiff smile on Zhao Yuan's face, couldn't help but frowned, and said to Zhao Yuan: "Mom, I came back earlier than my father today. He is still at the company. Aunt Liu will send it back to me first." of."

"Oh, your dad didn't come back." Zhao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on her face became much more natural.It's just that when he said this, there was an unconscious sense of sadness in his tone.Although Xia Jue is only a high school student, high school students now know no less than adults. He can understand his mother's feelings, and knows that his mother is also a normal woman. He longs for a normal family, and also hopes that his father To be able to come back earlier to accompany their mother and son, to make up for the lack of the past.

"Xiao Jue, the meal is ready, come down and eat!" Aunt Wu's loud voice came from downstairs.Xia Jue frowned.When Xia Wuchang was at home, Aunt Wu always came up to invite him downstairs for dinner, why would Aunt Wu refuse to even go upstairs when Xia Wuchang was not at home?Xia Jue wanted to lose his temper, but Zhao Yuan who was beside him put her hand on Xia Jue's shoulder and shook her head firmly.

"Why?" Xia Jue gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice.

"Aunt Wu is the aunt who took care of your grandma." Zhao Yuan stared into Xia Jue's eyes, "It's just a call to you, it's no big deal."

"Xiao Jue, did you hear that? The meal is ready. If you don't come down, it will be cold later." Aunt Wu's voice came up from downstairs again.

"Here we come." Xia Jue roared.

Hearing Xia Jue's roar, Aunt Wu showed a triumphant look on her face, but she immediately restrained her look, and instead showed an expression of grievance, and burst into tears: "Oh! I kindly cook for you, you Why are you still yelling? The old lady Yu always talked to me politely, and never said a word to me! I saw that Yuyu was young and didn’t have the pain of her grandma, so she stayed here! How come now, being scolded by a bitch...by a kid!"

"She's just pretending!" Xia Jue's arm muscles were trembling because of anger.He was about to rush downstairs to argue with Aunt Wu, but Zhao Yuan grabbed him.

"Zhao Hou!" In desperation, Zhao Yuan called out Xia Jue's real name. Xia Jue was taken aback for a moment. He looked at his mother puzzled. He didn't know why his mother continued to be patient when he clearly had reason. .

"Aunt Wu came to this house much earlier than ours. Her words are better in Xia Wuchang's ears than your mother's and mine. Don't offend her, okay? Mom begs you. We finally came to Xia's house." Zhao There was a tear in Yuan Yuan's voice.

Xia Jue gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and clenched her fists.He still has to hold back this tone now, and in the future, he will definitely let himself and his mother no longer suffer this kind of humiliation.

"Mom... I know." Xia Jue gritted his teeth, "I will apologize to Aunt Wu."

Hearing what her son said, Zhao Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, let go of her son's clothes, straightened the clothes that had been wrinkled by her son, and gently pushed her son down from behind, signaling him to go downstairs quickly.

Xia Jue took several deep breaths repeatedly, and then went downstairs.Aunt Wu was still crying downstairs, her voice was extremely loud, and her words were also very rude.Although there are no dirty words, it sounds more depressing than those with dirty words.

Xia Jue gritted her teeth, and said to Aunt Wu, "I'm sorry, Aunt Wu, I was under too much pressure today, and I accidentally spoke a little louder, it wasn't on purpose."

Aunt Wu peeked at Xia Jue, and also saw that the young man was full of disbelief. This was said bluntly, and it was definitely not voluntary.If you force him a little more, then Xia Jue will definitely rush forward and strike.Aunt Wu didn't want to get hurt either, she just wanted to make trouble for the mother and son, so she stopped crying.

She stopped crying, wiped away the tears that didn't exist, and said to Xia Jue: "Xiao Jue, Aunt Wu is getting older, what is she doing there, oh, menopausal, don't be as knowledgeable as Aunt Wu!"

Xia Jue forced a smile and said, "No, it's my fault."

"Hey, okay, who doesn't make mistakes among young people? Come on, come on, Aunt Wu just cooked you a meal, come and eat." Xia Jue looked at the wrinkles on Aunt Wu's face piled up together, only thought that she looked like a rag.

Although Xia Jue was still unhappy, when he saw his mother appearing on the stairs, he still gritted his teeth, walked to the table, and picked up the chopsticks.

Aunt Wu also saw Zhao Yuan appearing on the stairs, and Aunt Wu smiled and said, "Zhao Yuan, are you down? The TV series will be broadcast soon, and I just wanted to call you."

Zhao Yuan also smiled, and said to Aunt Wu: "Aunt Wu, look first, I will have a meal with Xiao Jue. Xiao Jue is on vacation now, but being called by my husband to contact the company is also embarrassing for him at such a young age. It's gone." Zhao Yuan specially emphasized the words "my husband", and she was reminding Aunt Wu vaguely that this is Xia Wuchang's biological son, not someone that a nanny can easily bully.

Aunt Wu's complexion also became unnatural, she didn't say anything, just nodded, sat on the sofa, turned on the TV, and it looked like a popular show was coming.

Xia Jue also heaved a sigh of relief after saying a few words to his mother to stop Aunt Wu from making noise.He didn't want to listen to Aunt Wu's nagging.

While growing up, Xia Jue eats a lot.He ate something when he was in the company after five o'clock, but it couldn't satisfy his appetite.Aunt Wu's food was quite delicious, so Xia Jue ate a little more.Seeing her son eating, Zhao Yuan felt happier.Xia Jue looks too thin, he doesn't look like a 16-year-old boy at all.Eat more and grow faster.

At this moment, Xia Jue's phone vibrated.Xia Jue put down the bowl and chopsticks, took out her mobile phone, and found that Wang Qian had sent her a WeChat message.Although Xia Jue is young, he has come into contact with a lot of people and the world.This Wang Qian is her father's secretary, but she really takes care of her a lot, but these cares make Xia Jue feel that Wang Qian is flattering herself.

The message Wang Qian sent now made Xia Jue feel this emotion even more.It's just that this kind of behavior...is not what a secretary should do.Xia Jue frowned slightly.

Seeing her son's frown, Zhao Yuan asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Xia Jue put down his phone, picked up the rice in the bowl again, "Mom, my dad is coming back."

Hearing that Xia Wuchang was coming back soon, Zhao Yuan became nervous.That inexplicable smile appeared on his face again.Xia Jue sighed lightly, and said, "Mom, you might as well stop laughing."

"I'm... a little nervous." Zhao Yuan looked at Aunt Wu who was concentrating on watching TV and said in a low voice.

Regarding Zhao Yuan's nervousness, Xia Jue could only lower her head and secretly reveal a helpless expression.He is an illegitimate child.He has known this since he was a child.Although it was said that his father passed away early, Xia Jue's life was always depressed by the rumors from the neighbors.He also knew that his mother and father were not familiar. When his father brought them back, his mother was even afraid to see his father.It's good to be just a little nervous now.

However, Zhao Yuan was nervous for more than an hour, but Xia Wuchang still didn't show up.I looked at my watch, it was almost ten o'clock.Xia Jue thinks that Xia Wuchang must have gone out for a drink, and he probably won't be back for a while.So he comforted his mother and asked her to go to bed first, without waiting for Xia Wuchang.

Zhao Yuan shook her head, although she has been sleeping with Xia Wuchang in separate rooms since she got married, but as long as Xia Wuchang didn't say that she would not go home at night, she would wait for Xia Wuchang to come back.She always believes that this is the duty a wife should have.Xia Jue was also helpless, but felt that her mother was really a strange person sometimes.He obviously didn't like his father, and was so scared to death that he still had to wait for him to come home.

Xia Jue couldn't object to Zhao Yuan's insistence, so he went to sleep first.Tomorrow, like all office workers, he still has to get up at 7 o'clock to go to work.

Is this a problem for the rich?
Xia Jue changed into her pajamas, got into bed, and suddenly such a thought flashed through her mind.Immediately, he fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing her son go to sleep, Zhao Yuan looked around the large and empty living room with a tired look on her face.As usual, Aunt Wu would go to bed after ten o'clock. Without the old lady watching over her, Zhao Yuan dared to show some real expressions on her face.

She picked up her phone, and there were several text messages, but they were all spam, not worth reading.Suddenly, her gaze froze, and the hand holding the phone seemed to tremble.This is a message from a contact in the phone, with the name of the contact on it: Qian Rumei.

Zhao Yuan took a deep breath, tried her best not to tremble with her fingers, and tapped several times, but all of them were on other news.Zhao Yuan closed her eyes, took another deep breath, and then controlled her emotions, controlling the message from Qian Rumei in her hand.

"Auntie, I've taken a fancy to a boy. Let's have dinner tomorrow. Can you check it out for me?"

When Zhao Yuan saw this text message, her hands trembled even more.It seems that this Qian Rumei is not her niece, but a demon who chooses and devours people.She read the message several times, remembered every word in her mind, and after thinking about it, she replied: "Okay."

Soon, Qian Rumei came back with a time and address
"The fourth floor of Yahui Shopping Center, sweet lovesickness, 2 o'clock."

Yahui shopping mall is not far from Xia Wuchang's home, and this time coincides with the time when Zhao Yuan usually has nothing to do.Zhao Yuan also had no reason not to agree.

"it is good."

After replying to the message, she locked the phone screen and put it aside, Zhao Yuan showed a strange expression on her face.There is the meaning of relaxation and relief, but there are also deep-seated tension and anxiety mixed in it.

The voice of the TV series is loud, but Zhao Yuan has already fallen into self-contemplation and cannot extricate herself.
