After calming Xu Zhirang down, Xu Xiu asked him to review his action plan, and then he found his packed small schoolbag and took out everything inside out of curiosity.

The little kid looked at the deflated cake thoughtfully.

It seems that cake is not convenient to carry.

"What are you doing with the carrot?"

Xu Xiu looked at the abrupt carrot with amusement. Who would bring vegetables with them when running away from home?

Xu Zhirang gave a convincing explanation:

"Mom said that children need to take vitamins every day. If they run away from home, they won't eat well, so I have to take the carrots."

He needs to grow taller quickly, so of course he needs to eat more nutritious food.

Xu Xiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. Did she still have to praise him for still wanting to listen to his mother at this time?

Shen Xingyi watched from the side, and his expression softened.

In another corner of the cafe, two men were sitting face to face.

One of the men retracted his gaze and said to the man across the table with a look of surprise:

"Did you see that? Mr. Shen actually has such a down-to-earth side."

Not long after they sat down, they saw Shen Xingyi from the Shen family in Yanjing pushing the door open with a child and walking straight towards a woman in the corner.

The word "mother" that the child blurted out instantly reminded him of the gossip he had heard recently, about Shen Xingyi having a son.

It seems that it is really true.

Although I couldn't hear what they were saying afterwards, it seemed that the woman was criticizing and educating the child. The child was so aggrieved that he was about to cry, but Shen Xingyi didn't say a word.

Finally, the woman's face cleared up, and Shen Xingyi's complexion also improved.

It simply amazed him.

"It turns out that everyone is the same. When my wife criticized my daughter, I didn't dare to interrupt her for fear of getting into trouble. I didn't expect that a person as high and mighty as Mr. Shen would be like this."

He also thought that Shen Xingyi was not polite to women and children in private, and would be a cold and strict father and a respectful husband.

Today was really an eye-opener for him.

"Lin Lou, I remember your sister seemed to have always had feelings for Mr. Shen, but now it seems that Mr. Shen treats this child's biological mother differently."

That’s right, the person sitting opposite the man was Lin Lou.

He held a cup of coffee and sipped it gently, then raised his eyes to look at the three people in the corner, a gleam of light flashed quickly in his eyes.

He didn't know that they would get along like this in private.

Facing the man's teasing, he smiled good-temperedly:

"Qiao Qiao is still young, who knows what she thinks about love matters."

Speaking of Lin Youqiao, the man gossiped again:

"By the way, has the last incident with your sister that made headlines been resolved? I heard that she has even stopped using her credit card and is staying at home instead of attending parties."

Lin Lou paused as he put down his coffee, looking helpless:

"Qiao Qiao is really spoiled. The elders in the family wanted to teach her a lesson this time, hoping that she would realize her mistake, so they suspended her card."

The last incident involving two younger generations of the Lin family was exposed, and Lin Ke was completely kicked out of the Lin Group, while Lin Youqiao's dividends were stopped and his shares were taken back.

Lin Youqiao didn't participate in social activities for a long time because she felt embarrassed.

Finally, the storm had just subsided, but a few days ago her card was suspended for some unknown reason. She was told to stay at home and learn the rules and not go out. Even the money that a company promised to give her as a birthday gift was taken back.

In a family like theirs, those who don't have a job rely on the pocket money and credit cards given by the family every month for their expenses. Basically, it is enough for them to spend as much as they want, and they won't touch their own private piggy banks.

Once the family support stops, even if she is not locked up at home, she will not be willing to go out and socialize. After all, in their circle, everything costs money, and a lot of money.

Lin Lou had also guessed the reason, but seeing the situation today, could it be that Xu Xiu had whispered something in Shen Xingyi's ear, so Shen Xingyi put pressure on the Lin family?

If that's true, then he has to thank Xu Xiu very much.

Since Xu Xiu now has enough influence on Shen Xingyi, he doesn't mind giving a helping hand to Xu Xiu.

Even if she fails to succeed in getting promoted in the end, it would be good to let Lin Youqiao suffer a setback.

Lin Lou looked over there again, and unexpectedly met Shen Xingyi's cold gaze.

He froze for a moment, then curled up the corners of his lips to reveal a smile and nodded to Shen Xingyi.

Shen Xingyi also nodded slightly, then retracted his gaze.

Xu Xiu noticed his gaze and followed his direction. After seeing that it was Lin Lou, he immediately looked away.

I couldn't help but complain in my heart.

In the original novel, Lin Lou had been playing the pig and eating the tiger in the early stage, playing the role of a good-natured brother with no temper, and was very tolerant of his ignorant sister.

Although Lin Youqiao didn't like him at first, she thought that he was just trying to please her father.

It was not until later that she discovered that the reason she had suffered setbacks and lost multiple projects since joining the Lin Group was actually because Lin Lou was behind it.

After that, the two began a years-long struggle for power.

Finally, with the help of Shen Xingyi, Lin Youqiao successfully took over the Lin Group. Lin Lou became penniless and was wanted. He hid everywhere like a stray dog, but still posed a certain threat to Lin Youqiao and the Lin Group from time to time. The most serious one almost took Lin Youqiao's life.

In the end, he disappeared and Lin Youqiao was never able to find his whereabouts.

Judging from the description in the novel, Lin Lou is a man who will do anything to achieve his goals. He is cruel and ruthless and has no bottom line.

Although I don’t know how credible the description in the novel is, after all, the protagonist is Lin Youqiao, and Lin Lou is the villain, so it is inevitable that there will be some prejudice.

But judging from the several times Xu Xiu had met Lin Lou, his character was indeed somewhat cold and unpredictable, so Xu Xiu planned to stay away from the struggle for power and property between the Lin brothers and sisters.

But I don’t know whether I should say it’s good or bad luck to be able to encounter it in such a small place.

Of course, what Xu Xiu didn’t know was that Lin Lou’s appearance here was not accidental.

After she retracted her gaze, she looked at the father and son and said:

"Let's go eat something first. There's a good barbecue restaurant over here."

Xu Zhirang was of course happy to have dinner with his mother, and Shen Xingyi had no objection, so the three of them quickly left the cafe.

*

After dinner, Xu Xiu thought they would find a star-rated hotel in the city, but she didn't expect that Shen Xingyi had already booked a room in the hotel where she was staying.

"The hygiene standards of the rooms there may not be up to standard."

Xu Xiu reminded.

She remembered that the last time Shen Xingyi looked down on the hotel where she stayed on the crew.

Although this is the best hotel in the area, it is still not as good as the star-rated hotels in the city.

Shen Xingyi replied indifferently:

"I have asked someone to tidy up the room."

Well, money makes the world go round, Xu Xiu admires it.

After returning to the hotel, Xu Xiu was afraid of meeting acquaintances, so he went in separately.

Just after she returned to her room and washed up, she received a message from Xiaodouding.

[Mom, I want to sleep with you, can you come find me? ]

Xu Xiu hesitated for a moment, then put on his coat and went out.
