Fu Yanchen was sitting in the living room. The light made his handsome face look even more angular, and his eyes were shining with a gentle star-like light.

He gently waved at the phone screen, a warm smile on his lips, and his voice was low and magnetic, like the sound of a distant bell in a deep valley, slowly ringing: "Xiaoxiao, good night, I wish you a sweet dream."

As they spoke, there seemed to be an invisible warm current that crossed the barriers of time and space and reached Xu Xiaoxiao's heart.

Xu Xiaoxiao lowered her head slightly, her lips slightly parted but she seemed to be hesitant to speak, and finally she just uttered two words softly: "Good night..."

"Yeah!" Fu Yanchen nodded and hung up the phone. Xu Xiaoxiao slowly put down the phone and watched the video call interface disappear from her sight bit by bit.

As the picture disappeared, the flickering light and shadow on the screen dimmed instantly, just like the lights suddenly going out on the stage.

At that moment, the room seemed to become extremely deserted, as if the warm atmosphere that had been transmitted through the video had disappeared without a trace. This sudden change made Xu Xiaoxiao tremble all over.

She stood there as if she was under a spell, her eyes still fixed on her phone which had gone black.

Then, a strong feeling of palpitations like a raging storm came over her and instantly submerged her whole body like a surging tide.

It felt like an invisible hand was tightly grasping her heart, kneading and squeezing it so hard that she could hardly breathe.

Her face turned pale as paper in an instant, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Out of instinct, she subconsciously stretched out her right hand and covered her chest tightly, as if this could suppress the force that was about to burst through her chest.

However, the heart that had been beating steadily was now like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, banging wildly against her ribs, making loud "bang bang bang" noises, as if trying to break free from its restraints and rush out.

At this moment, she could clearly feel her heartbeat as rapid and powerful as a drumbeat, and every beat seemed to break through the confinement of her chest.

This uncontrolled rhythm made Xu Xiaoxiao panic. She clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deeply into her palms, but even so, she could not relieve the inexplicable restlessness and uneasiness in her heart.

Her other hand unconsciously stroked the clothes on her chest. The slight coolness from her fingertips and the burning heat in her heart intertwined with each other, forming an indescribable contradictory feeling.

This feeling of ice and fire made Xu Xiaoxiao more and more upset. She didn't know why it was like this, but she felt that the whole world became blurred at this moment.

In the room, a small dim lamp was like a candle in the wind, emitting a weak and flickering light.

The light seemed to be covered with a veil, making everything around it shrouded in a hazy shadow.

Xu Xiaoxiao sat quietly beside the bed. Her beautiful eyes seemed a little dazed at the moment, and her gaze was fixed on the black screen of her mobile phone.

At this moment, her heart was like a mixture of mixed emotions, with all kinds of complicated emotions intertwined together, making it difficult for her to distinguish and sort them out.

Xu Xiaoxiao has always firmly believed that she is definitely not a superficial person who would be easily moved by others just because of their appearance or voice.

After all, she had been looking at Fu Yanchen's face for many years and was extremely familiar with every contour and line of it. She could even clearly picture it with her eyes closed. Fu Yanchen had long been integrated into every aspect of her daily life, as natural as breathing.

However, at this moment, she felt an unprecedented throbbing.

This feeling was so strange to her, yet it surged like a tide, so powerful that she could not resist it.

She widened her eyes and looked suspiciously at the things around her that should have been familiar to her. She couldn't help but feel a wave of doubt and self-doubt in her heart:

"Oh my god! What is going on? Is there really something wrong with my mind? Or have I gone completely crazy? Otherwise, how can I explain why I am like a child who has just experienced the world and is deeply attracted to Fu Yanchen again?"

As she thought about it, she shook her head gently, trying to dispel the inexplicable confusion in her heart.

But even so, the heart that kept beating like a deer seemed to be silently telling a completely different answer...

Fu Yanchen slowly stood up from the comfortable sofa, stretched his stiff limbs, and then walked towards the bathroom with steady and elegant steps.

He was looking forward to enjoying the brief, relaxing time that belonged to him before the quiet night arrived.

However, just as he took a few steps, a rapid cell phone ring suddenly rang, breaking the original quiet atmosphere in the room.

Fu Yanchen stopped and looked down at the phone screen in his hand.

The number displayed on it was Mo Shaoqing's father. When Fu Yanchen saw this number, a slight ripple arose in his heart involuntarily.

You know, Mr. Mo is a very steady person. He usually wouldn't take the initiative to call him on weekdays, let alone at this time in the dead of night.

They hadn't been in contact for several years. In the past, because of Xu Xiaoxiao, he had put some pressure on the Mo family a few times. Old Mo was also very smart. He understood what Fu Yanchen meant when he gave him a hint. He drove Mo Shaoqing out of the country and didn't allow him to come back. Since most of his own business was abroad, he went with them as well.

Therefore, there must be a reason for this call.

Fu Yanchen's originally handsome face was now slightly frowned, his two sword-like eyebrows were tightly twisted together, as if he was thinking about some important issue.

There was a hint of imperceptible doubt in his deep eyes, like a ripple on the surface of a calm lake, fleeting.

However, after just a moment, Fu Yanchen quickly adjusted his emotions with his strong self-control and psychological quality.

He answered the phone in his usual polite and calm tone.

"Hello? Mr. Mo, what do you want to talk to me about so late?"

Fu Yanchen's voice is deep and magnetic, like the melodious sound of a cello, which makes people feel good after listening to it.

Although it was late at night, there was no trace of fatigue in his words. Instead, they revealed a sense of calmness and confidence.

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Mo's slightly old and slightly trembling voice, as if carrying a heavy burden, slowly came through the receiver.

There was clearly a bit of helplessness that could not be concealed and anxiety that was difficult to calm down in that voice, just like fallen leaves in the wind, swaying unsteadily but extremely clearly entering Fu Yanchen's ears.

"Mr. Fu! Alas... I have been abroad every day in the past few years, and I didn't know that you and Xu Xiaoxiao were married and... I just found out that you and the young lady from the Xu family have divorced."

Fu Yanchen: "It's only temporary."

"I know. That troublesome little brat in my family didn't understand. I originally just wanted him to come back to pay respect to our ancestors. Who would have thought that I didn't pay attention and he ran off to look for Xu Xiaoxiao! Oh, I was so anxious and angry! I'm really sorry. Please be more tolerant and don't bother with a little kid."

Mr. Mo spoke slowly, his voice revealing deep helplessness and sorrow, and he let out a long sigh.

The sigh seemed like a torrent rising from the depths of the heart, carrying endless anxiety and troubles, flowing out continuously.

His brows were furrowed, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to become deeper, as if the marks left by the years had deepened a little more.

When it came to a crucial point, Mr. Mo suddenly stopped talking as if something was choking his throat.

He hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickering, as if he was experiencing a fierce struggle in his heart.

Finally, after a long and suffocating silence, he took a deep breath, as if to suppress all the fear and anxiety in his heart, and then he slowly raised his head, mustered up his courage again, and continued to speak in a slightly trembling but firm voice:

"You should be very clear in your mind about the deep affection that boy has for your Xu Xiaoxiao! From the time when they were just little kids running around in open-crotch pants with runny noses until now when they have grown up, so many years have passed, and the boy's love for Xu Xiaoxiao has never changed in the slightest! It can be said that this is an unswerving love that will last until death!"

Having said this, he paused for a moment, as if observing the other party's reaction, but after seeing Fu Yanchen's calm face, he continued:

"Let's talk about you and Xu Xiaoxiao. Although everyone knows that you two have already gone through the divorce procedures, I know the truth in my heart! I understand that the so-called divorce between you two is, after all, just a temporary measure taken under desperation. How could you really go your separate ways and become strangers because of a divorce certificate?"

"After all, everyone has seen everything you have done for her over the years! How could a person like you who values ​​love and friendship so much be willing to let go of the woman you love so deeply?"

After hearing this, Fu Yanchen frowned slightly, and a subtle complex expression flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal and asked with a gloomy face:

"Well, so...what exactly do you want to say? You might as well just say it."

His tone was calm, without any emotion in his voice, but those who knew him well knew that his heart must be filled with turmoil at this moment.

"It's like this, Mr. Fu, I'm really sorry that I have to trouble you to help me! Can you teach this kid a lesson? It would be best if you could beat him up mercilessly and let him know how powerful you are. Then, forcibly bring that ignorant guy back to me, so that he won't continue to act recklessly and lawlessly outside!"

Mo's face was full of worry, and his tone revealed deep helplessness and anxiety.

Fu Yanchen couldn't help but frown after hearing this, and said with a slight twitch in the corner of his mouth: "You...this is really cruel. It seems that you are definitely his biological father. How can a father be so cruel to his own son?"

Mr. Mo sighed deeply, rubbing his hands together, and replied with a bitter face: "Alas... Mr. Fu, you don't know, I really have no way out now! That guy is simply unyielding, he won't listen to anything I say, and he completely ignores my words."

"I really have no way to deal with him. I simply cannot discipline this willful and self-indulgent fellow! I am also forced into a desperate situation, so I only thought of asking you to help me solve this matter. I hope you will be magnanimous and not be so mean to me. Please help me!"

As he said this, he almost knelt down and begged Fu Yanchen on the phone.

The annoyance in Fu Yanchen's heart was like a lit powder keg, getting more and more intense.

That damn Mo Shaoqing, why did he choose this critical moment to cause trouble for him!

His brows were furrowed, veins popped out on his forehead, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

However, the good manners and self-control he had developed over the years allowed him to suppress his anger.

He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the negative emotions into his stomach, and then slowly exhaled.

After repeating this several times, his restless heart finally calmed down a little.

After a moment of silence, Fu Yanchen raised his head, looked at the old man opposite with a firm and steady gaze, and said slowly:

"Mr. Mo, please rest assured. I know. I will never let Shaoqing do anything wrong, and I will never let your lineage be left without a successor."

Mr. Mo was silent for a while on the other end of the phone. Even though Fu Yanchen had made a promise, he still didn't seem to be completely at ease.

After a long while, he slowly said, "Mr. Fu... Actually, there is one more thing I want to ask you. I wonder if you know Mo Jinghan. Where is he now? They say that he, "

When he said this, Mr. Mo's voice was a little low, and it also revealed a subtle hint of temptation.

Fu Yanchen couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard Mr. Mo mention the name Mo Jinghan.

His eyebrows subconsciously raised slightly, and an indescribable feeling of surprise suddenly surged in his heart.

You know, Mo Jinghan was not an ordinary person before. He had considerable influence in the business and social circles. But later he overestimated his own abilities and attempted to defile Xu Xiaoxiao, which Fu Yanchen would not allow.

However, Fu Yanchen was confused for a moment as to why Mr. Mo suddenly asked about Mo Jinghan's whereabouts.

Mo Jinghan, this name had not sounded in his ears for a long time. When he suddenly mentioned it from Mr. Mo's mouth, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and a little angry.

He pondered for a moment before slowly saying,,,,,,,
