but you never loved me

Three years later, in an apartment near Lincoln Park in Chicago, USA, Yan Zimu was combing Yan Yan's hair.Tie her daughter's thick and long black hair into a ponytail, and put on a crystal barrette.

He couldn't help but reached out and touched his daughter's soft hair, suddenly felt that time had passed too fast, Yan Yan was ten years old today.

The delicate-looking little girl in the mirror looked at her father's slight frown, smiled and hugged her father: "Dad, where is my birthday present?" Her mischievous tone remained the same as before.

Yan Zimu nodded fondly on her nose: "The gift is on the table outside, go and see for yourself." Yan Yan got up and went out very excitedly, but she no longer bounced around like she did when she was a child.Her steps are elegant, like a little lady.

However, before he finished admiring Yan Yan's changes, Yan Yan's exclamation sounded outside: "Godfather!" Yan Zimu came out of the room, and saw her rushing over to give Jiang Cheng a bear hug.

Jiang Cheng smiled, and picked her up easily, but still teased her: "Oh, our little princess has grown up, and my godfather will not be able to hug you anymore."

Yan Yan smiled happily, showing two dimples on her cheeks, but she raised her head pretending to be arrogant: "I'm not heavy!" Jiang Cheng pinched her little face: "Yes, yes, our little girl The princess is not fat." As he spoke, he picked her up and twirled around, Yan Yan laughed "creakly" in his arms, almost out of breath.

Yan Zimu looked at the two of them laughing and joking, and his mood became better.This was Jiang Cheng's first visit since they came to the United States.Seeing him, Yan Zimu felt a little happy and warm in his heart.

He walked over and said with a smile: "Stop making trouble, and when Dudu comes back in a while, the image of the big sister you carefully created will be gone." As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Yan stopped making trouble, and sat obediently. Unwrapping presents on the chair, with a dignified look.

Jiang Cheng clicked his tongue a little, and looked at Yan Zimu in surprise.Yan Zimu looked at Yan Yan who opened the packing box, his eyes lit up immediately, and said with a smile: "You don't know, Dudu is very naughty, like a bully at home. But he just listens to soft words the most. , just because Ruan Ruan always puts on the appearance of a big sister."

Just as he was talking, someone pushed the door and walked in. The person who pushed the door was wearing a slim black sweater, and the coat was Burberry's new windbreaker.The deep pupils and long and narrow eyes give people a personable feeling.

However, what was extremely inconsistent with his temperament was a little boy about three years old in his arms.The little boy held a lollipop in his hand and licked it, the glistening saliva dripped down and smudged on the man's coat.

The man was not bothered by his illness, and held the little boy tightly with one hand.The other hand was raised up, revealing the cake in his hand, and he blinked at Yanyan: "Xiaoyan, the chocolate mousse cake is back." Yanyan nodded and thanked with a polite smile.

When the eyes shifted to the little boy in his arms, his eyes widened on purpose, and he said in a serious tone: "Doo!" The little boy blinked his eyes several times, and then immediately slid off the man.He ran to Yan Yan's side as if flattering him, and tugged on her skirt: "Sister..."

Yanyan raised her head and ignored him at first, but he steadfastly took Yanyan's hand and shook it: "Sister, don't be angry." Yanyan lowered her head and saw his big round eyes without blinking Looking at himself, his heart softened immediately.

She knelt down and wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth for him, then kissed his white, tender and round face before picking him up from the ground.

While hugging and walking towards the dining table, he taught him: "Every time Uncle Lin comes, you ask him to buy you candy secretly. How many times has my sister told you that you can't eat so much sugar. Otherwise, your teeth will be broken in the future. It will hurt. If you do this again, my sister will ignore you." The little boy nodded obediently while eating the lollipop with relish.

It was the first time Jiang Cheng saw Yan Dudu, and he was immediately attracted by his soft and cute appearance.He hurriedly wanted to go up and hug Dudu, but Dudu refused to give Jiang Cheng a hug.Jiang Cheng was a little frustrated, but he still persevered around the two siblings.

Yan Zimu looked at the three people walking around in the living room and laughed a little.Lin Minchen also looked at the three of them, and said cheerfully: "Dudu is really cute." Yan Zimu responded with a smile: "Don't spoil him too much, you buy him so many things every time you come , the house is almost out of capacity.”

Lin Minchen looked at his side face tenderly, and said in a somewhat unserious tone: "I like it, I am willing. Are you afraid that you owe me too much? Don't worry, Dudu is Dudu , I won't let you make a promise with your body."

Yan Zimu raised his head and bumped into Lin Ta's eyes, the eyes were still as gentle as water, as if he would sink if he looked at them a few more times.So he immediately turned his head away, just as if he didn't notice his gaze.

Then he changed the subject in a calm and gentle tone: "How are your sister and Wenwen? Recently, Xiaoyan keeps mentioning Wenwen, let me ask you how he is doing?"

A trace of imperceptible loneliness flashed across Lin Minchen's eyes, but he still pretended to be okay and responded with a smile: "They are all fine. It's just that Wenwen keeps asking me, how long will you go back?"

Facing this topic, both of them fell silent.In the past few years, even though he was abroad, Yan Zimu knew everything about the Gu family.And secretly weakened Gu Huaiyu's strength.In the past, in order not to reveal his whereabouts, Jiang Cheng never came to the United States.And this time his arrival may mean that it is time to go back.Yan Zimu looked at Jiang Cheng not far away, with inexplicably deep emotions in his eyes.

Five people gave Yanyan a very happy birthday.After eating cake at night and making noise for a long time, Yanyan sensiblely took Dudu to bed.

After the child left, there were only three adults left in the living room, and the atmosphere suddenly became less relaxed.Yan Zimu stood on the balcony, holding a goblet in his hand, took a sip of the wine in the glass, and asked slowly, "Brother Jiang, is there something wrong with Gu Huaiyu?"

The dark color on Jiang Cheng's face became a little deeper: "It's not that there is something wrong with Gu Huaiyu. It's just that I recently discovered that someone has been secretly buying shares in Gu's."

Yan Zimu turned the wine glass in his hand, his face was a bit gloomy: "Do you know how many shares the other party has?"

Jiang Cheng shook his head: "I can't find out for now, but it's been a long time. It started three years ago, but we only discovered it recently."

Yan Zimu looked at the red wine in the glass with deep and cold eyes, and after a while, he drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.When he spoke, his tone was extremely cold: "Book tickets for me, I should go back and have a look. No matter who it is this time, I will never let the Gu family fall into the hands of others again."
