Huo Xiaoxiao thought that the cake shop her father was going to take her to was a shop with a rich creamy fragrance, filled with all kinds of bread, and birthday cakes of various shapes and sizes in the glass window. But he didn't expect to bring her to an afternoon tea shop decorated in English style.
The waiter in a well-tailored suit politely guided Huo Suicheng to a secluded place to sit down, and an exquisite dessert menu was placed in front of him.
Most of the people who came to the store with their children were mothers, like Huo Suicheng who brought Huo Xiaoxiao into the store, and received a lot of surprised eyes both openly and secretly.
Huo Xiaoxiao was a little curious, but at least she didn't embarrass her father, and she didn't look around to be flattered. She just looked at the blue and white dinner plate in front of her, which was so spotless that it could reflect light, and silently thought about meeting Ji Wenxin at the door of the classroom today.
Obviously, Ji Wenxin had already had a direct confrontation with her father when she was in Sea World.
It's just that she didn't see it at that time.
So, for the time being, her father doesn't want her to know about Ji Wenxin's existence
Think about it, too, her father and Ji Wenxin were drunk and absurd. Later, Ji Wenxin was pregnant without telling Huo Suicheng.
When her father was able to take her home from the hospital, he just wanted to exchange her for the company shares held by Mr. Huo.
The two don't have any feelings.
What's more, when she was just born, Ji Wenxin abandoned her in the hospital, no matter what the reason was, abandonment is abandonment, and abandonment with serious reasons is also abandonment.
Her father definitely didn't want her to know about the past.
Having said that, if Ji Wenxin could take her away after she was born, maybe the current plot would be about the domineering wife running away with the ball.
So here comes the question, did Ji Wenxin not take her away because of the father of the little girl he met that day at Sea World
From a certain point of view, she is indeed a drag bottle.
Huo Suicheng didn't pay attention to what she ordered, only heard that her father ordered a glass of champagne at the end.
Huo Xiaoxiao looked over, "Dad, don't drink too much, you will get drunk."
"...a cup of Ceylon tea."
The waiter smiled kindly, "Okay, please wait a moment."
The waiter turned and left. Huo Xiaoxiao looked at her father and felt that at her sensible age, she should have started to have doubts about her mother, and she should also ask her father why because all the children around him have mothers but he does not have a mother. I don't have a mother.
Huo Xiaoxiao opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now, in case her father is unhappy after asking, will the cake still be eaten
Let's talk after eating.
She was bored and looked at this shop decorated in English style.
Not far away, a mother was feeding cakes to her three or four-year-old girl with a spoon.
Huo Suicheng noticed where her eyes were, looking at a cake at the table of the mother and daughter.
Didn't care much.
The waiter brought the dessert.
On an exquisite white-glazed porcelain plate, there is a sponge cake, fluffy and soft, with a layer of sweet cream and bright red jam in the middle, a white chocolate cake, a pink macaron, and a serving with cream and jam scones.
The sweet scent is refreshing.
All the troubles about Ji Wenxin and her father were swept away in Huo Xiaoxiao's mind in an instant.
Just when she was about to feast, Huo Suicheng only put the soft sponge cake in front of her, "I can only eat this one."
"dad… "
"Children can't eat too many sweets."
"Then these..."
"Take it back to Aunt Zhao."
Huo Xiaoxiao looked at the other desserts on the table, hesitated to speak.
Just let her eat this piece and order so much
Greedy her on purpose
Huo Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth.
Her father just lacks the beating of society, that's why he is so happy to bully her!
"Don't eat?"
"eat!"
As if resigned to fate, Huo Xiaoxiao scooped a piece of sponge cake with a spoon, and the soft and sweet taste melted in his mouth.
After swallowing, she asked in an innocent tone: "Dad, why don't I have a mother?"
"Cough cough—" Huo Suicheng, who was drinking water, choked unexpectedly, lowered his head, frowned and coughed muffled.
Seeing this, the waiter on one side stepped forward and asked, "Sir, do you need help?"
Huo Suicheng waved his hand, but he still coughed non-stop. It took him a long time to stop coughing. He looked at Huo Xiaoxiao, "Why did you ask that suddenly?"
Huo Xiaoxiao pointed to a pair of mother and daughter on the table not far away, "The kid's mother brought her to eat cake, but I didn't have it. Zhou Zhou brought me chocolate today. Zhou Zhou said that his mother bought it for me." , Many children in the class have their mothers to pick them up every day, why don’t I?”
"..." Huo Suicheng took a sip of water calmly.
"Dad, where is my mother? Why didn't Dad tell me about my mother?"
The glass that Huo Suicheng put down was picked up again, but there was no water in it.
He summoned the waiter and motioned for another glass of water.
He had thought that Huo Xiaoxiao would ask her about her mother one day, and he was prepared as early as when he was in Sea World, but it was too coincidental that she asked about it after meeting Ji Wenxin today.
Huo Xiaoxiao watched him take a sip, and then another sip. The moment he put down the cup, he couldn't wait to ask, "Dad, what does your mother look like? Do you have a picture of your mother?"
"Have you heard what others have said?"
"No, can't I ask?"
"Can… "
"Then dad said!" Huo Xiaoxiao didn't even eat the cake, threw the knife and fork aside, and stared at Huo Suicheng with big eyes like black grapes, obviously very interested.
Huo Suicheng was silent for a moment, talking back and forth in his heart.
Your mother doesn't want you anymore.
Your mother has other children now and doesn't want you.
Dad and mom don't have feelings, so your mom doesn't want you anymore.
"..."
For a while, I didn't know where to start.
Seeing Huo Suicheng hesitate, Huo Xiaoxiao frowned, "Dad, what's wrong? Can't you tell Xiaoxiao?"
"You are still young, even if Dad tells you, you still don't understand, when you grow up..."
"I've grown up!" Huo Xiaoxiao interrupted him, "I can understand Dad, is Dad just perfunctory me?"
"I... Dad didn't perfuse you."
"Then you're talking about mom. The other kids are all family of three going out to play. Why isn't mom by our side?"
"If mom comes back, you have to leave dad and grandpa, are you willing?"
"Is mom back?"
Huo Suicheng was startled slightly, shaking his head.
"Since you haven't come back, how do you know that I have to leave you and grandpa when my mother comes back? I just want to know about my mother now."
Huo Xiaoxiao chased after him, but Huo Suicheng was a little overwhelmed.
"Dad, you talk!"
Huo Suicheng was really at a loss for words, "Dad will tell you about this after I go back."
"Why do you want to tell me after you go back?"
"Because it's a private matter."
Huo Xiaoxiao thought for a while, "Really? Then Dad can't lie to me."
"Do not lie to you."
"Okay, I'm done eating, Dad, let's go back."
Huo Suicheng looked at the dessert that was barely moving in front of him, and waved to the waiter helplessly, "Please pack it."
Huo Xiaoxiao wanted to go home in a hurry, and seemed to be particularly interested in her mother's affairs.
Huo Suicheng sat on one side and sighed heavily.
Back home, Huo Xiaoxiao was carried off the car by Uncle Chen, "Hurry up, Dad!"
Huo Suicheng sat in the car without getting out of the car, connected a phone call, and said to Huo Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, Dad has a temporary reception, come home later, you can tell grandpa."
"dad… "
After finishing speaking, before Huo Xiaoxiao could react, the car door closed and he left in a hurry.
Huo Xiaoxiao looked at the exhaust of the Bentley, curled her lips, and entered the door with her schoolbag on her back.
—
Huo Suicheng really has a reception tonight, but it's at 8:00 p.m., and the current time is 4:50 p.m., so it's impossible to leave at this time.
The driver glanced at Huo Suicheng from the rearview mirror, "Sir, are we going directly to the reception?"
Huo Suicheng frowned, "Go back to the company first."
"OK."
The vehicle turned around at the intersection ahead and returned to the company.
It wasn't until 7:30 in the evening that Huo Suicheng left the company for the reception.
For Huo Suicheng, this kind of reception is really a bit boring. It is nothing more than hooking up with each other and exchanging resources. People at this level, all of them are monkey spirits.
He wandered outside the crowd with a glass of champagne.
not in the mood.
"Huo Er, what's going on, I've been paying attention to you all night." Lu Boyang walked in with a glass of red wine.
He likes such occasions, not for anything else, but for those beauties who pour a glass into his arms at the reception.
"I'm not in the mood."
Lu Boyang smiled while holding his wine glass, "I think you've been single for a long time, look here, how many women want to get into your arms, look, that Miss Sun," he held the wine glass and toasted far away, " Her eyes have been glued to you tonight. And that Miss Zhao, I heard that they have been thinking about how to take you down."
Huo Suicheng looked at him suspiciously, "Where did you hear that?"
"I guess you are the only one in the whole world who doesn't know about it. Can't you see the hot eyes they have on you? They all wish they could do you right now."
"Stop talking nonsense."
"It's hopeless," Lu Boyang shook his head, "Besides, don't you want to find a mother for Xiaoxiao?"
Huo Suicheng frowned, "She asked me about her mother today."
"What did you say?"
"I haven't said it yet, I'm still thinking about how to tell her."
"You can fool her by talking casually. A child is only two or three years old. She doesn't know if you lie to her."
Huo Suicheng glanced at him and didn't speak.
"By the way, you really don't plan to find a mother for Xiaoxiao? Even if you don't find a mother, don't you plan to find a woman?"
Huo Suicheng swallowed his champagne, "Let's talk about it. Why didn't you see Jiang Zhi tonight?"
"Him? He's been annoyed recently. The third child who was driven abroad by him recently came back and got involved with a man surnamed Wen. The person who came was not kind."
As soon as the words fell, a woman in a silver backless dress came over and clinked glasses with Huo Suicheng with a wine glass, "Mr. Huo, hello, my name is Sun Ying, nice to meet you."
Lu Boyang showed a meaningful smile, knowing the fun and not disturbing, "You guys chat."
Sun Ying watched Lu Boyang leave, only herself and Huo Suicheng were there, she moved closer, and drew in the distance from Huo Suicheng, "I heard that the ancient tomb at the foot of Luming Mountain has been confirmed to be excavated this time, Mr. Huo's There is no need to delay the project any longer, congratulations."
While speaking, the sweet and greasy fragrance of the woman's body came with the wind.
Huo Suicheng looked down at her coldly, but didn't speak.
If you don't speak, you don't say no.
The woman became more courageous, leaned forward tentatively, almost hung most of her body on Huo Suicheng, and hooked Huo Suicheng's fingers provocatively.
Huo Suicheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were slightly deep.
Sun Ying looked into Huo Suicheng's eyes with a smile, and said bluntly: "I admire Mr. Huo's personality very much. I don't know if I can have the honor to have a glass of wine with Mr. Huo alone after the reception tonight?"
Huo Suicheng closed his eyes slightly.
Open your eyes again, there is no lust in your eyes.
"Miss Sun, respect yourself." He said calmly.
