"Uncle Xiao, Mom has been on a business trip for the past few days. Did you ask Auntie Tang to take care of me?" Zhao Chen asked as she ate.
"Ah, yes." Xiao Yiran was stunned. He glanced at Su Wangzheng's zither and answered.
"…" Su Wangzheng was silent. She didn't remember telling Zhao Chen this.
"Then where did Auntie Tang go? Why didn't she come to eat?" Zhao Chen asked.
"How is Auntie Tang doing to you?" Xiao Yiran cleverly changed the topic and asked a question instead of answering. Actually, Xiao Yiran didn't know how to explain that Tang Aili was only a bodyguard and couldn't eat with them.
"Alright, Auntie Tang made me so many delicious dishes. She even played games with me and read my storybook." He naturally understood that Xiao Yiran was changing the topic. However, it was better for him to pretend that she didn't know at this moment.
"Then you still have to live with Auntie Tang in the future, okay?" Xiao Yiran smiled and then asked.
"No." Without waiting for Zhao Chen Cheng's reply, Su Wangzheng spoke first. From the very beginning, she had already realized that Xiao Yiran was cleverly changing the topic. Therefore, she had already guessed what was going on, and insisted on looking at Xiao Yiran. "You promised to have Cheng by my side."
Xiao Yiran seemed to have guessed that Su Wansan would be so excited. He smiled and advised, "You're overthinking it. I just wanted to say that Cheng will go with Tang Aili to the room next to yours. You can look after your child anytime you want. Moreover, he's already this old, do you still want me to live with him? "
"What's wrong with children living with their mothers?" Su Wangzheng raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yiran, unwilling to back down at all.
"You have to work. Do you want to stay in the villa and watch the kids every day? Why don't you ask the child? " Xiao Yiran also asked with a smile. There was a hint of threat in his tone, which implied that Su Wangzheng could not take even a single step out of the villa if she was looking at a child.
"Mom, Uncle Xiao, please don't fight. Actually, it's pretty good for me to live with Auntie Tang. " Zhao Chen saw Su Zhizhan and Xiao Yiran arguing over him, so she quickly spoke up.
"Xiao Yiran, what are you afraid of?" Su Wangzheng suddenly stood up and asked Xiao Yiran with a cold glint in his eyes. Su Wangzheng knew that Zhao Chen didn't want her and Xiao Yiran to argue over such a small matter. However, it was these small matters that revealed Xiao Yiran's intentions. In the end, he still didn't believe her. How could she not be worried?
That single sentence stabbed right into Xiao Yiran's heart.
Yes, what was he afraid of? Why did he have to be the villain and break up the mother and son?
When he had just eaten, he could already see the feelings of Su Wangzheng and her son. He also knew that they couldn't leave each other. But how could he be at ease? Su Wangzheng was right. He was afraid. In his heart, he was afraid.
Once he lost the grip on his zither, Su Wenzhuan's zither once again disappeared from his sight. He didn't know if he could wait any longer.
People said he would rather kill someone by mistake than let them off. That was his mentality right now. He would rather have his petty heart and be on guard than have Su Wangzheng and Zhao Chen Cheng be together at all times. If that was the case, then the mother and son must have disappeared together just to find the child's father, right?
If only he could understand Su Wangzheng's zither as she understood him. It would be great if he could understand Su Wangzheng's zither.
People all said that he had hidden his feelings well, but no matter how well he had hidden it, Su Wenzhuan was still able to see through it with a glance.
Xiao Yiran helplessly turned his head away and refused to admit to it. He only coldly said, "I am not afraid of anything."
"Xiao Yiran, there is no need for you to do this. Do you think I can't take him away with me when I have a Tang Eli looking at an orange? Don't forget, I brought Cheng out for a meal not too long ago. " Su You Zheng looked straight at Xiao Yiran and warned him in a cold voice. She was naturally referring to the day that she disappeared. Since Xiao Yiran already knew that she had taken Zhao Chen Chen Chen out before, she wouldn't hide it from him.
"I know." Xiao Yiran pursed his lips indifferently. How could Su Wangzheng be a person that could be trapped? Even if she worked as a maid in a villa, she would still be able to get out. Tang Eli couldn't stop her, but some things were basically asking for peace of mind.
He found himself more and more preoccupied with his personal gains and losses. He knew he was in a passive state, but he still wanted to grab hold of something to turn the tables.
When Su Wangzheng saw that Xiao Yiran had turned silent, she naturally knew why.
He had used Zhao Chen as a collateral to stop him from escaping. However, why did he agree to bring Zhao Chen Chen here? After all, it was better to find a hidden place to hide. In this way, even if they were not in the same room, it would have no use at all.
Su Wangzheng slowly closed her eyes. Suddenly, someone had to compromise on some matters.
Is this Xiao Yiran's concession?
He knew there was nothing he could do to prevent this, but he still made the suggestion.
"Cheng, be good when you're with Auntie Tang." Su Wangzheng didn't look at Xiao Yiran. Instead, she turned her head and said to Zhao Chen Cheng.
"Right." Zhao Chen nodded her head.
Xiao Yiran, who was at the side, did not say anything. He was still able to force Su You Zither to compromise.
Actually, he didn't want to do this. Xiao Yiran took a deep breath and looked at Zhao Chen as well, saying, "If you have anything you want to eat, go play wherever you want. Just tell Auntie Tang." You want to see your mother? Tell Auntie Tang as well. "
"Alright." Zhao Chen nodded with a smile.
Su Wangzheng knew that Xiao Yiran was trying to hit him. After the son, is again sent sweet jujube.
He also felt that it was a bit despicable for him to break up the mother and son duo like this, right? Su Wangzheng took a deep breath and said, "I've finished eating. I want to go to bed now."
With that, she turned to leave.
"Bring Cheng to play ball, let's play together." Xiao Yiran hurriedly said from behind. Before Su Wangzheng could reply, he looked towards Zhao Chen and asked, "Cheng Chen, what ball do you like to play?"
"Uncle Xiao should ask me what ball I play." Zhao Chen asked Xiao Yiran with a smile.
"Oh?" When Xiao Yiran heard this, he also smiled and asked, "Don't tell me you only know how to play ball?"
"I also know how to play tennis, but I'm not very good at it." Zhao Chen thought for a moment before replying.
"Then let's go. Uncle Xiao will teach you how to play tennis." As Xiao Yiran spoke, he pulled Zhao Chen downstairs. When they passed by Su Wangzheng, he said softly, "Let's go together."
In fact, Su Wangzheng didn't want to go, but after seeing the look of anticipation in Xiao Yiran's eyes and his deliberate expression, she still left in the end.
She wasn't worried about Zhao Chen being ruthlessly abused. Waiting … he just couldn't bear to ruin their mood. It was rare for someone to play with Zhao Chen for a while.
Thus, they went downstairs to the tennis room on the second floor.
Xiao Yiran took a racquet and handed one to Zhao Chen. He took one for himself. Then he walked around the net to the other side, took off his suit jacket, pulled off his tie, and stood with the racket in his shirt.
When Zhao Chen saw Xiao Yiran take off his jacket, she also threw her jacket off. Her actions were very cool.
Su Wangzheng sighed helplessly and sat down by the corner to watch without a word. Although there are two resting stools near the net, Su Ziguo still feels that it is safer to stay away from the net in the corner and not get hurt by it.
When Xiao Yiran saw Su Wangzheng sitting on the ground, he quickly grabbed his clothes and walked to her side and said, "Sit here."
When Su Wangzheng saw Xiao Yiran's suit, she hesitated for a moment. This was indeed a rare occasion. However, it was a pity that she didn't wear such a good suit. She was probably just farting about it. After sitting down, Xiao Yiran would not wear it anymore. Sigh, it's a pity that an expensive suit is about to die.
Actually, she wasn't that delicate to begin with. Because whoever said the ground here wasn't clean, Su Wangzheng was the first person to oppose it. She knew very well that there was someone who came here to do it every day. There was simply no dust left. Furthermore, she had once sat on the floor when she was tiring while cleaning up the activity rooms. It would probably be pure laziness and would make her feel extremely comfortable.
Furthermore, the maid costume she was wearing right now wasn't as valuable as Xiao Yiran's suit. Therefore, it had nothing to do with dirtying the pants. Of course, it also had nothing to do with sitting on the ground while feeling cold. This was because this place was hot on the ground.
Perhaps, this was just an act of a gentleman.
When Zhao Chen saw that Xiao Yiran had given his clothes to Su Wenjin to sit on, he quickly picked up her coat and handed it over to Su Wangzheng.
At that time, Su Wangzheng could only bitterly smile.
She had already harmed one set of clothes, so she couldn't harm the other one anymore.
In fact, when Xiao Yiran asked someone to build this tennis room, he probably didn't want to set up a chair for the audience, right? And the two benches below the net should be for the players, because no one can sit under the net and watch the ball without worry, it would be weird if the ball didn't hit them. Therefore, it was already quite good for her to be able to sit on the ground.
Su Wangzheng folded Zhao Chen's clothes and put them to the side, then said, "You can begin. I'll be the referee for you."
Hearing Su Wangzheng's words, Zhao Chen and Xiao Yiran both raised their rackets.
"Orange, can you serve?" Xiao Yiran asked while looking at Zhao Chen with a smile.
"Yes." Zhao Chen nodded.
There's a ball on the shelf next to you. You go first." Xiao Yiran pointed to a shelf on the side as he spoke to Zhao Chen. Since there was already a referee, it was naturally time for the match. However, it would be a disgrace to win a match with a child, and it would be very disgraceful to lose the match. Therefore, he had to be very careful, apart from repeatedly making concessions.
"Alright." As Zhao Chen spoke, she went back to the shelf and picked up a ball. This ball's weight and size were very standard. Zhao Chen weighed it for a moment, then she understood how much strength she should use to serve it.
Dad had told him that playing tennis wasn't just about playing hard, it was about playing hard. The strength of the ball had a lot to do with the ball itself.
"Uncle Xiao, I'm going to serve the ball now." Zhao Chen took the ball back and stood at its original position. Then, she made a gesture as if she was about to serve and reminded Xiao Yiran.
"Come." Xiao Yiran smiled and nodded his head. Actually, looking at this kid's standard of holding a racket, he knew that the 'not very good' that he had just said had a lot of meaning to it. A normal beginner wouldn't be able to use a racket as well, so they were destined to miss the game. However, Zhao Chen was very precise and very aggressive. He truly deserved to be called Su Wangzheng's son.
