Chu Muqing held the steering wheel in her hand and looked straight ahead, her fingers moving a little harder.
The car drove away from the school gate for nearly ten minutes and no one in the car said a word.
The little guy was probably tired. She huddled in Lin Xi's arms and was obedient not making noise or shouting. Lin Xi gently patted her on the back. After a while, the little guy closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The car without a window was very sultry. Chu Muqing pressed the button and the window slowly fell into a gap. A cool breeze blew in tugging at the hair in her ear and the depressed mood finally eased a little.
She was silent for a long time but still said softly to the people behind her, "Thank you."
She had apparently ignored too many things during this time.
The work is almost continuous, the grandfather's death day is imminent and the mother's illness is in urgent need of huge medical expenses...
Even if she didn't want to admit it, she had to start to face the serious consequences this time because she ignored the serious consequences of cheng.
Over the past few days, Chengcheng has never told her that Teacher Chen would treat her like this when Teacher Wen left for something.
The little girl is always obedient and sensible at home and when I talk to her occasionally, it's mostly fun things that happened between school and friends.
In fact, she sometimes thinks that the child's sensible level is not in line with her current age.
but...
Her premature sensible is it not her dereliction of duty as a mother?
If Lin Xi hadn't discovered it earlier this time, what would have happened to cheng?
Lin Xi...
In response to this incident, Lin Xi just gave her the recorder and asked her to go back and listen to the specific process.
In addition, Lin Xi did not say a word of accusation to her.
If Lin Xi accused her a few words maybe she would feel better in her heart.
"You don't need to say thank you." Lin Xi glanced at her realized what she was referring to and smiled lightly: "I just did what I was supposed to do."
Chu Muqing paused and was about to say something.
Lin Xi clicked the rearview mirror again reminding her, "Concentrate on driving, Chu Muqing."
Chu Muqing retracted her gaze and responded, "En."
Afterwards, she raised the side window again.
Lin Xi took out her phone tapped the screen with her fingertips, and sent a message to Zheng Yayi—
[Got the evidence. ]
In a few seconds, Zheng Yayi's message was immediately replied.
—[That stupid bitch finally hit the muzzle? ]
Lin Xi replied to her: [Well. ]
-[Yes, the person you are looking for has already been found. ]
Lin Xi knew that she was referring to the person from the Education Bureau and replied: [Thank you for your trouble. ]
-[What are you polite? Are you free on weekends? If you are free, what I mean is you take the cub to meet her in person. It doesn't seem appropriate for me to relay many things. It is better for you to say it in person. ]
Lin Xi: [Yes, it just so happens that the cub will not go to school tomorrow. ]
-[Row. ]
—[Right, right, hahaha, I told you Miss Lin, I asked my cousin to buy the house of your wife, and I went with her. ]
—[I asked her to come forward, Chu Muqing would never have thought that you bought it. ]
Lin Xi thought for a while: [I will transfer the money to you when I got back, help me thank your cousin. ]
What did she think of again: [Wait a minute, what's your cousin's last name? ]
—[Cousin? Of course my cousin's surname is Zheng? I'm not an illegitimate daughter? ? ]
Lin Xi frowned.
- [Oh, you think too much, do you think your wife is Lord Holmore? I'll guarantee that I'll have the head on my item, she's definitely not going to think about you, don't worry! ]
Lin Xi: [...]
Is it really?
However, it seems that Chu Muqing never talked to her about the house again. The manager of the real estate company never came to the house. He just asked her if she had a good relationship with Zheng Yayi and she said yes.
Chu Muqing did not reply.
Putting down the phone, Lin Xi turned her head looked at the buildings on the street outside the car and asked Chu Muqing, "Are we going to the supermarket soon?"
Chu Muqing answered her: "Turn around the street ahead and you'll be there."
"Ah, it's finally here..."
Lin Xi let go of her arm that was about to go numb lowered her head again squeezed the little guy's little hand and reminded her softly, "We're almost at the supermarket, it's time to get up~"
The little guy opened her eyes ignorantly. She had just fallen asleep for a while and she obviously couldn't react.
"Are we in the supermarket?" The little guy understood and asked in surprise, "Yeah, can we eat dinner outside?"
"..." Lin Xi suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Is that all you can think of? Go to the supermarket?"
The little guy blinked and said, "Wow! You can buy chocolate candies!"
Lin Xi helped her up let her sit on her lap and asked her "Well, chocolate candy, what else?"
"And marshmallows! Milk candy!" The little guy said and took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket: "This is from Shu Yu, it's so delicious! Mama Lin, can you buy this for Chengcheng? "
Lin Xi glanced at the English on the candy packaging bag and promised again and again: "Okay, as long as the cub likes it, I will buy it."
"That's great!" The little guy said happily: "When I go to school on Monday, Cheng Cheng can distribute candy to Shu Yu."
Lin Xi asked her with a smile, "Do you like to play with Shu Yu's little friend? Why don't you call her to play at home another day?"
The little guy nodded immediately thought of something and shook her head again: "No, she is fierce, so she doesn't like to play with me."
Lin Xi couldn't help but crying and laughing again when she saw her angrily little appearance.
Chu Muqing found a parking space and parked the car. On Friday night, there was a shortage of parking spaces in front of the supermarket and it took a long time to find a free space.
The day is a sunny day and the warm sun is warm. When evening comes, the clouds in the west reveal bunches of warm light and the sunset light falls and everything on the earth is dyed with a soft golden yellow.
Lin Xi carried the little guy out of the car and the little guy's eyes were immediately attracted to the Tanghulu cart in the distance.
Seeing this, Lin Xi lowered her head and asked her, "Do you want sweet?"
The little guy shook her head: "Yess!"
Lin Xi stretched out her hand to her: "Go!"
"Oh... let's go!" The little guy understood and immediately grabbed her finger.
Chu Muqing got out of the car, only to realize that the two had gone to buy candied haws in the square in front of the supermarket.
Looking down, Lin Xi an adult jumping around with the child was a little naive. At the same time the guilt she had suppressed all the way was replaced by the warm scene in front of her and in the end there was only softness in her eyes.
Chu Muqing hurried to follow, Lin Xi had already taken a bunch of candied haws and handed it to the little guy and was about to pay.
Chu Muqing took out a note from her wallet and handed it over: "I'll pay for it."
Lin Xi smiled: "Okay." She thought about it for a while, and then asked with a smile, "Anyway, you're already paying so can i choose anything?"
Chu Muqing nodded with a light smile: "Okay."
The boss looked at them and wondered, these two really know how to play, why are they not entertaining guests.
Lin Xi turned around and said to the boss, "Boss, I want a bunch of the most expensive ones."
boss:...
So maybe it's not a couple?
The boss hesitantly went to see Chu Muqing, and Chu Muqing calmly took out a note from her bag: "Give it to her."
Lin Xi secretly sighed in her heart, as expected of a woman who will be the president of Omega in the future, looking at the calm attitude of paying people her temperament...
The boss took the money with a smile and Lin Xi got the most expensive string of candied haws as she wished.
The little guy quit: "Mom, I also want to eat the most expensive food."
Chu Muqing looked at her, and tapped the string on her hand with her index finger: "You already have it."
The little guy licked the candy on it pouted and said, "Oh..."
Fitting room on the fourth floor.
Lin Xi got dressed and walked out, standing in front of the full-length mirror and looking at the person in the mirror.
A light blue shirt, wide-leg trousers and a long camel-colored trench coat. Those who didn't know it thought she was going to work immediately.
The female clerk watched her change another set and her eyes blossomed with laughter.
The little guy looked at her in the mirror and shouted enthusiastically, "Good-looking!"
Lin Xi smiled: "Really?"
"Miss, your wife's eyes are so good this set is really suitable for you." The female clerk sighed: "Of course you are also in good shape, you're a natural clothes hanger."
Lin Xi smiled: "Thank you, I also think she has a good eye."
It seems that the clothes of this season do not need to be chosen too seriously. Anyway, the autumn is very short and it will be winter soon after. When the down jacket is on your body, no one will care what you wear inside.
But Chu Muqing obviously didn't think that way and she didn't know if Chu Muqing misunderstood her. She chose several outfits for her in a row and she changed it out. Saying it doesn't look good just let her try another set.
Lin Xi: ...
Does Chu Muqing think that she doesn't look good in these clothes?
"Chu Muqing..." Lin Xi turned around and looked at the glass door of the shop: "What do you think of this set?"
Chu Muqing was standing on the phone, she heard Lin Xi calling her turned around and motioned her to wait for a while.
"Why am I listening to Lin Xi's voice?" On the other end of the phone, Su Rui asked, "Where are you?"
Chu Muqing said calmly, "Buying clothes at the mall."
"Buying clothes? You and Lin Xi together?" Su Rui was shocked: "Isn't it? Your relationship has developed to the point that you are going to the mall to buy clothes together?"
Chu Muqing didn't answer.
Su Rui added: "Forget it, let's get down to business first, will you go to the hospital to see Auntie tomorrow?"
Chu Muqing replied, "Well, she called me yesterday and it sounded like she was in a bad mood."
Su Rui sighed and persuaded: "I have tried my best to contact the people from Dr. Zhao's side, don't worry too much, it's not completely hopeless, sigh this Dr. Zhao is also with his status, all It's not something you can ask without money."
Chu Muqing lowered her eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Su Rui."
"There's no need to thank me this between you and me....Chu Muqing, you won't cry, will you?"
Chu Muqing took a breath and replied in a muffled voice, "No."
Hanging up the phone, Chu Muqing walked behind Lin Xi.
Lin Xi is standing in front of the fitting mirror bowing her head and pulling on her cuffs: "Is this a bit long?"
The female clerk stepped forward with a good attitude and explained with a smile: "Miss, this trench coat is this style and the buttons on the cuffs need to be fastened."
She said taking the initiative to help Lin Xi tie the cuff buttons.
Before Lin Xi could refuse a cold voice came from behind: "I'll just come."
Lin Xi was stunned. The next moment, Chu Muqing had already walked to her right side bent down slightly and focused on helping her fasten the buttons on her cuffs.
Her hands were beautiful, her slender fingertips resting on the transparent buttons, which were lit upside down.
Chu Muqing was so close to her that she could touch her cheek with a slight pressure on her chin.
The ambiguous atmosphere spread in the stuffy space and Lin Xi swallowed unconsciously.
She looked at Chu Muqing who was close at hand and finally said "Actually... I know how to do it myself."
Chu Muqing straightened up and set her eyes on her: "Okay, the other one."
"..."
Lin Xi could only stretch out her hand obediently.
She thought that Chu Muqing was really good at taking care of people sometimes.
The thought flashed by, Chu Muqing had already separated a certain distance from her took out the card in the bag and handed it to the clerk.
"Please wrap all the clothes my wife tried on just now," she said.
The clerk was stunned for a moment, and immediately took the card: "Miss, I really envy your Alpha to have such an Omega."
Lin Xi was also stunned.
she thinks.
Yes...
Not only will she take care of people well she is also very generous.
