Sitting next to a writing desk, Lu Chen took a sip of the boiled water that Yao Mengqing poured for him. But his eyes were looking at the child Dongdong in Yao Mengqing's arms.
It can be said that Lu Chen never took his eyes away from this Dongdong after entering the door. At this time, Yao Mengqing was directly ignored by Lu Chen.
"What are you looking at?" Yao Mengqing couldn't help but say something when she saw Lu Chen's lost state.
"Is he your child?" Lu Chen pondered for a long time and finally asked the question in his heart.
"Yes, otherwise why would he call me mom?" Yao Mengqing's attitude was like you were asking questions knowingly.
Lu Chen couldn't help but stood up and put his head in front of Dongdong's face. ; The two of them stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. It was obvious that Dongdong seemed to be afraid of strangers. After being looked at by Lu Chen for a while, he turned his head and face away, unwilling to look at Lu Chen.
"It's not like that." Seeing that Dongdong was not paying attention to him, Lu Chen suddenly said something after a long time.
"What's the difference?" Monk Yao Mengqing was confused, not knowing what Lu Chen was talking about.
"This kid looks nothing like me." Lu Chen frowned, straightened up, and turned to look at Yao Mengqing, who was sitting beside the bed.
"Pfft!" Yao Mengqing was immediately amused by Lu Chen's words. She hugged Dongdong with one hand and covered her mouth with the other hand and started laughing. "Really, why does Dongdong have to be like you?" Ah, he is not your son."
"It's not my child, so you're married?" When Lu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but feel like a thunderbolt. He didn't expect that Yao Mengqing, whom he hadn't seen during this time, actually got married and gave birth to a child.
"What are you talking about?" Yao Mengqing suddenly rolled her eyes at Lu Chen, already understanding the meaning of Lu Chen's words. He quickly explained.
"Why am I married? I'm still single, okay? This is not your child. We have only been separated for a long time. How can we have such a big child?" He rolled his eyes and followed Lu Chen.
"It seems so." Lu Chen then remembered that Yao Mengqing had been separated from him for less than a year, how could he have such a big child.
"Then you still say that he is your child." Lu Chen patted his chest in false alarm. It was obvious that he was not mentally prepared to be a father.
"You think it's quite beautiful." Yao Mengqing chuckled again, and she felt a sense of pleasure in her heart when she saw Lu Chen's held breath relieved.
"Then whose child is he?" Obviously this Yao Mengqing is not Dongdong's biological mother.
"Shh, let's wait until the child falls asleep." Yao Mengqing gently stroked Dongdong's back at this time. Dongdong's little eyes began to look confused, and he was obviously ready to sleep.
Sure enough, not long after, Dongdong fell asleep sweetly in Yao Mengqing's arms. Yao Mengqing was still worried and still caressed Dongdong's back. After knowing that half an hour had passed, she placed Dongdong flat on the wooden bed and carefully covered Dongdong with a quilt.
"Let's go out and talk." Yao Mengqing lowered her voice, fearing that the loudness would wake up the sleeping Dongdong.
Obviously Lu Chen couldn't wait to know what kind of story there was between Dongdong and Yao Mengqing. After hearing what Yao Mengqing said, she already walked out of the room and reached the corridor.
Yao Mengqing followed him out and gently closed the door.
"Come on, tell me what's going on."
"Are you ever so anxious? It seems like you care about Dongdong very much." Yao Mengqing couldn't help but laugh again when she saw Lu Chen's anxious look.
"No, I don't care about you." Of course, caring about Dongdong was fake. After all, Lu Chen had just met this child, but he was a little concerned about Yao Mengqing. When he heard that Dongdong was Yao Mengqing's child, he was not his own. Lu Chen felt an inexplicable soreness in his heart. After Yao Mengqing said that she was not her biological child, the feeling of relief made Lu Chen's aggrieved mood ease a little. But I want to hear what the relationship between Dongdong and Yao Mengqing is.
Seeing Lu Chen leaning against the corridor, Yao Mengqing took a step forward, holding the railing with both hands, but looking at the night view of the city in the distance. It seems that he wants to calm down his mood.
"Hey~" Yao Mengqing's opening words were actually a sigh. Lu Chen couldn't help but frowned slightly, and looked at the stuff under the quilt again through the crack in the door. It seemed that this was not a very good story.
"I had just returned to Linhai City at that time. Because I didn't find a suitable job, I had to work in the law enforcement team first. And that was my first time on duty." Yao Mengqing began to slowly tell the story.
"That time we went to the place where illegal stalls were set up to drive away those illegal vendors. Haha, you probably know that our work is not understood by others. After all, we have too many negative reports. I I don’t deny that some people exist who wear a uniform, but are still beasts.”
Seeing Lu Chen's frown, it was obvious that this kind of thing was often exposed on the Internet. Naturally, many people had great prejudice against the profession of law enforcement.
"Of course the vendors started running when they saw us. We also had a lot of people. When we saw them running away, we naturally chased after them. There were already many people on that road, and it suddenly fell into chaos."
"During this period, we also caught a lot of vendors, but some of them ran faster and let them run away. I thought things would end like this, until a strange voice came from the crowd. I realized that things were going wrong."
"What exactly happened."
"One of them was a couple. They were setting up a stall with their children. When they saw the law enforcement team, they rolled up their belongings and ran away. Unexpectedly, the two of them were knocked directly to the ground by a car that suddenly rushed out of the alley. Suddenly, the two of them were like Fell into a pool of blood.”
Hearing this, Lu Chen seemed to already know who the child was. He should be the child of the couple, but he just didn't understand how the child could call Yao Mengqing his mother. After all, this child should be old enough to remember things, and it is impossible for him to forget his biological mother.
"I was extremely impressed at the time, because this noisy sound was mixed with the cry of a child. When I went up to look at it, the child was lying in his mother's arms, and his blood was already stained red. His whole little face. His mother was not breathing at that time. Finally we sent him and his father to the hospital."
"In the end, after rescue, his father survived, but he turned into a vegetative state. Fortunately, the child only had some scratches and was nothing serious."
"But how did you become her mother? Was it arranged by your law enforcement team?" Lu Chen still didn't understand what the relationship was with Yao Mengqing. After all, Yao Mengqing cannot be blamed for this responsibility.
"Our law enforcement team bears a lot of responsibility for this incident, so the captain and I went to the hospital to see the child and his father. What I didn't expect was that the child called me mom when he saw me. I was also The child's behavior shocked me. After all, I have never been a mother."
"But looking at his innocent little eyes, I immediately couldn't help but go up and hug him. When I hugged him, the feeling of his face rubbing against mine, I suddenly felt that this child and I were like It is destined that we will always be connected.”
"So that's it, but how could this child forget his mother and still recognize you as his mother?" Lu Chen still didn't understand the reason.
"The doctor's explanation is that the child was probably too frightened and selectively forgot about his mother who died in front of him. I was the first woman he saw after he woke up, so he naturally regarded me as his mother. .”
"So that's it, I understand. Poor child." Lu Chen glanced at Dongdong in the bed again, his eyes gradually changed from the previous confusion to a trace of pity.
"But it's not good for him to be with you like this. You are so busy at work, how can you distract yourself from taking care of him?" Lu Chen asked Yao Mengqing to worry.
"This is easy to solve. The leader of the team has arranged a fixed work position for me, so I can still take care of this thing."
"Okay, you know what you should know. It's getting late. You can go back to where you live." Yao Mengqing didn't want to argue with Lu Chen about Dongdong. After all, it was her own decision. , Even if Lu Chen comes forward to speak, he can't change his mind.
Lu Chen suddenly turned around, also aiming his gaze at the distant city night scene, but he put his hand around Yao Mengqing's still slender waist.
Yao Mengqing did not resist, because she liked the feeling of being with Lu Chen. There was probably no other person in her life who could give her such a peaceful and intimate feeling.
"Don't hold on. If you have any difficulties, just talk to me. Naturally, Dongdong will tell me anything. I will also treat him as my own child." Lu Chen was silent for a long time, Said it lightly.
In Lu Chen's words, that was an understatement, but Lu Chen and Yao Mengqing knew that it was very difficult to do, and Yao Mengqing was not prepared to drag Lu Chen into it. After all, this matter has nothing to do with Chase Lu.
"I appreciate your kindness. You don't have to take care of Dongdong for me. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and Dongdong." Yao Mengqing naturally knew that Lu Chen couldn't accept Dongdong immediately. He must have taken his own feelings into consideration. , will say that I want to accept Dongdong. Although Lu Chen didn't take any action, Lu Chen's words still made Yao Mengqing feel warm in his heart.
"Okay, you go back. I'm not going to keep you here overnight." Yao Mengqing suddenly stretched out her hand and hit Lu Chen on the elbow. In one fell swoop, Lu Chen's hand, which had unknowingly fallen to his buttocks, was opened.
"Ahem, I didn't say that." Lu Chen coughed awkwardly, but he couldn't help but think of the tender scene between the two of them in the past, and couldn't help but lose control of his body.
"Okay, okay, I know what you're thinking, but it's really inconvenient. Dongdong is still sleeping there. Let's wait another day." As Yao Mengqing said this, she blushed, turned around and hid back in the room. middle.
"That's what you said, but I remember it." Lu Chen smiled broadly, looking at Yao Mengqing who was hiding in the crack of the door looking at him, and couldn't help teasing her again.
"I got it, go back quickly. I won't send you off, lest you have any wild ideas again." After Yao Mengqing finished speaking, she locked the door back without waiting for Lu Chen to respond.
Looking at the shy Yao Mengqing, Lu Chen really fell into a gentle land. The hopelessness was the most heart-wrenching.
