In these three years, this was the first time Gu Qingyou heard the little brat mentioning her father.
It wasn't because her son was that smart, knowing that this was a taboo topic. It was because that brat had never been sensible, and every time this topic was about to be brought up, she would be able to fool him. He had finally asked her that question formally today.
Gu Qingyou squatted down and gently held onto the little kid's shoulders. Her face was plastered with a loving smile, and she said gently, "It's not that Mu Mu doesn't have a father, it's just that Mu Mu's father has separated from Mommy, so Mommy will take care of Mu Mu."
"Then why did Daddy's mommy split up?" the kid asked, even more puzzled than before.
"Mu Mu, look, it's Betty who lives next door. She also lives with her mommy, so it's not weird for Daddy's mommy to be separated from her ?? This is because when two people get along, there are always many problems. Just like Mu Mu and Klass who sometimes argue. " Gu Qingyou patiently explained to the brat that she was afraid that if she did not explain it clearly, the child would have different thoughts from the others.
"But I think there's a father like Klass's father who can fix water pipes, change light bulbs, and teach Klass how to play with Remote Control Aircraft ?? He knows everything. " The kid was disappointed.
Gu Qingyou then carried the brat up and laughed softly, "Other than teaching you how to play Remote Control Aircraft, Mommy knows everything as well ?? Mommy can fix the water pipe, change the light bulb, and make you something delicious... Mommy is even better than Klaus' daddy! "
The brat self-consciously wrapped his arms around Gu Qingyou's neck and muttered, "Then is Mommy even better than my dad?"
"This ??"
Gu Qingyou suddenly didn't know how to reply.
"Mommy, I'm waiting for you to answer!"
"This ??" Gu Qingyou pondered for a while more before thinking of an answer. Mu Mu's dad does not know how to fix water pipes or change electric bulbs, Mom is very sure. "
How could he spend his time dealing with such a cumbersome matter? His career was at its peak, and he was probably busier than he was in the past!
"The kid immediately understood." So Daddy doesn't have a mommy stick? "
"Mommy didn't say that ??"
The kid was about to ask something else when he realized that Mommy had carried him to the lawn behind the house. The lawn suddenly lit up, and the ribbons hanging between the house and the tree were adorned with star-shaped lights, covered with all kinds of cute cartoon pictures and balloons, and on the square dining table were three layers of cartoon cake. Under the table were all kinds of gifts ??
"Wow!"
The brat exclaimed, and happily slid down Gu Qingyou's body.
At this moment, a group of children came from all directions ??
Before the kid could react, he was surrounded by all the kids from the neighbors.
All the kids were congratulating the kid on their happy birthday, and the English version of the birthday song was going on...
The kid was so happy that he felt like he was in a dream. He looked at Mommy in disbelief, as if he wanted to make sure that this was the truth.
Gu Qingyou gave the brat a thumbs up, telling him that this was the real situation. At the same time, she indicated that the brat should be the best.
The brat was extremely happy and immediately threw himself into the game with the little friend.
Today could be said to be the kid's happiest day of the year. He had gone insane ?? So in just three rounds of the party, the kid had fallen asleep on her shoulder before she could carry him to the shower.
When Aunt Shu came to her room, she saw Gu Qingyou gently carrying the little brat onto her bed and asked, "Are you not going to bathe him anymore?"
Gu Qingyou chuckled, "How can I wash? He sleeps like a little pig ??"
Aunt Shu followed him to the bedside, and seeing the little brat's cute sleeping posture, he said in relief, "This brat finally has a conscience. She even knows that the first piece of cake I cut is for you to eat, and said that today was the most difficult day for you three years ago.
Gu Qingyou pulled the brat's blanket over him and laughed softly. "I think this must be taught by the kindergarten teacher ??"
"Even if it was taught and he can still remember, it can still be considered deliberate. Children all turn their heads and forget about it." Aunt Shu said.
Gu Qingyou sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at the kid's peaceful face while she slept lovingly. I found out that he's really grown up now ?? "
"Oh?" Aunt Shu tidied up the presents the little brat received from the children on the ground tonight and asked, "Did he ask you a lot of questions today?"
"Yeah, he's like a curious baby right now. He's confused about everything and wants to find out everything."
Aunt Shu placed the gift inside the toy storage box and casually asked, "What kind of questions did he ask?"
"Ugh ??" There are many questions that I don't know how to answer. " Gu Qingyou replied.
Aunt Shu laughed out loud, "This little brat can stop you now ??"
Not allowing Aunt Shu to work too hard, Gu Qingyou spent more than two hours tidying up the lawn after forcing Aunt Shu to go to sleep. When she finished tidying up, it was already the early hours of the morning.
Even though she was very tired, Gu Qingyou still sat down on the sofa and took out the case from the Business Packs s.
When sshe saw that the person's name at the top of the case was written in Chinese, Gu Qingyou was startled for a moment. Then, he took out her phone and dialed You Li's number.
She knew that You Li, this little girl who had a rich night life, had never slept at all.
Her voice was lowered because the little kid was sleeping. " You Li, the case we are dealing with today is from China? "
You Li was indeed in a bar or something like that. When she was in a place that should be a washroom, You Li seriously replied, "Yes, Lawyer Gu."
"But I told the Boss Mo that I won't take on the Chinese case." Taking on a case in China would mean going on a business trip, and she had no plans to return to China at the moment.
"Boss Mo said that the commission for this case is extremely high. He brought it for Lawyer Gu to see, if you are willing to take on the case, then you will be the one to take on the case. If you do not want to take on the case, then Boss Mo will hand it over to the other lawyers."
"So that's how it is ??" You Li, you continue to play. I will talk to the Boss Mo about the case tomorrow. "
"Alright."
Gu Qingyou then put down the documents and got up to take a bath.
When she passed by the bed, she saw that the little brat had kicked the blanket away. Even though it was a summer night, the little brat still felt cold, so Gu Qingyou pulled the thin blanket over the little brat.
Gu Qingyou kissed the little brat on the forehead. When she was about to get up, looking at the little brat's godlike face, Gu Qingyou suddenly sat on the side of the bed.
She remembered a question the kid had asked her today.
Mommy, why don't I have a daddy?
As long as the child was single parent, she would always ask this question. She had thought about how to answer the child in the future countless times, but she didn't expect the child to ask her today ??
She answered very well, but only now did she realize that the child's heart also thirsted for a father.
She had always felt that her child was not lacking in love, because she had devoted almost all of her feelings to him. Even in a single-parent family, she always hoped that her child would feel that his family was warm. In the depths of a child's heart, there is always one thing that is yearning for fatherly love.
No wonder the little brat was so desperate for that Remote Control Aircraft ??
Maybe the kid didn't want the plane, but envied Klass for having a father, and it wasn't hard to tell from the kid's words that the kid thought his father was an omnipotent person ??
Gu Qingyou sighed softly and couldn't help but kiss the little brat on the cheek once more. Then, she rubbed the little brat's forehead and said softly, "Little baby, Mommy has let you down ??"
Sometimes, the more you try to avoid something, the more it comes to you.
Gu Qingyou went to Boss Mo and brought up the case of abandoning China for a rich commission. But when she looked at the local news in London, she saw that Jiang??s Group was trying to acquire the British Mingren Company, the matter had settled, and Jiang Jun would personally fly to London in the next few days to discuss a merger and acquisition with Mingren Company.
The British Mingren Company was a mining group. If Jiang Jun succeeded in merging with the British Mingren Company, that meant that Jiang Jun's future prospects would be extended to the mining industry.
These few years, Jiang Jun's career had progressed extremely well, especially after the success of the 7-Star hotel, which made his Jiang??s Group famous internationally. Now, Jiang??s Group could be considered as the number one hotel in China.
Although she might not meet Jiang Jun when she came to London, and they had not met in the past few years when he came to London, but the distance between them had narrowed and there would always be a sense of danger.
I hope that this time Jiang Jun will come to London the same as before. He will leave as soon as she comes, and they are like two strangers in this world who have not interacted at all.
"Aunt Shu came out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup, just in time to see Gu Qingyou sighing. Aunt Shu walked over and placed the bowl of soup in front of her. "Why are you sighing?"
the Aunt Shu asked lovingly as she sat down on the sofa.
Gu Qingyou said honestly, "Jiang Jun will be coming to London in the next few days, I am a little worried."
Aunt Shu lightly patted on Gu Qingyou's thigh, "Haven't there been no situation during these few years? "Don't worry."
Gu Qingyou lifted her eyes and looked at the brat in the room. He was researching the Remote Control Aircraft she gifted him yesterday, her expression was focused and serious.
That was why she had watched the kid from a distance last night, because the kid looked more and more like him.
If he or someone close to him were to see this child, she wouldn't be able to find any reason to hide it ??
Both of them were living well now, and she didn't want to break this peaceful and peaceful life in front of her.
Maybe she'd better take a leave of absence for a few days and stay home with the kids so everything wouldn't be a problem.
