Ling Xiao Yue sat on the sofa in a daze. Just now, Yue Shan Yun had sought her out and told her that the shareholder who wanted to transfer shares wanted to meet her. And at that time, Ling Xiao Yue had hesitated. With regards to Ling Yun's matter, Ling Xiao Yue had yet to decide what to do. Right now, whether it was good or bad for her to dive in first was up to her.
If she went back to work at SY, she would not have enough time to understand some things about Lingyun. Her mother's death, she still did not have a clue, and she did not know what was important now.
As the sound of the door rang, Ling Xiao Yue looked over to see that it was still very late.
Ever since the matter with Lei Yunze's blind date, Ling Xiao Yue had nearly never spoken with him again. Ling Xiao Yue could not tell what she was thinking. Ever since that day, her heart had been clogged up.
"You haven't rested yet?" Lei Yunze was somewhat surprised to see Ling Xiao Yue sitting in the dimly lit living room.
"Yes." After she responded, Ling Xiao Yue stood up and prepared to head upstairs.
"Wait." Lei Yunze stopped her. "Let's get married."
"Why?" That time, Lei Yunze had rejected her request to get married. He had despised her for harboring malicious intentions, but now, he was the one who had brought it up.
"Save some trouble." Lei Yunze sat on the sofa and finished all of Ling Xiao Yue's remaining red wine in one gulp.
"Lei Yunze, am I your shield?" Ling Xiao Yue turned around and crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"If I get married, I can just be my daughter as soon as I recite it."
"You still want to snatch that thought away!" Ling Xiaoyue instantly went on alert.
Seeing how nervous she was, Lei Yunze knew that if he kept talking, it would only lead to a deeper misunderstanding between the two of them.
"If we get married, we will no longer think of her as a wild child, and there will be less speculation about her in the outside world, so it will be a good thing for her. That photo will not be a threat to us. Even if someone takes it out, they can use the name of infringing on our privacy to push the issue. " What Lei Yunze said was not without reason.
"This is for you to consider." Lei Yunze took out a marriage contract from his drawer. He placed it on the table.
"Thunder Cloud Swamp." Ling Xiao Yue called out to him.
"Tomorrow, I'm leaving." Ling Xiao Yue silently said as she picked up the marriage contract on the table.
"Where are you going?" "The limelight hasn't passed yet."
"Qing Wan found a place for me to stay, but it's not a solution even if I stay with you the whole time." With that said, Ling Xiao Yue went upstairs.
"Mom?"
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Ling Xiao Yue walked over and tossed the letter of agreement onto the table before walking to the bedside.
"He woke up." She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at Ling Xiao Yue.
Ling Xiao Yue walked to the bedside and obediently laid down on her lap. Ling Xiao Yue stroked her hair that was filled with chanting and softly said to her, "Nian, we're leaving tomorrow. Auntie Yu has helped us find a new place to stay."
Nian Bing, who was in his embrace, stiffened. Only then did he respond.
"Will you be happy if Mom and Dad are married?"
Nian Bing crawled up and asked in disbelief, "Really?" But very quickly, the light in her eyes dimmed. "No, mother is unhappy, so I don't need father to recite it."
Upon hearing these words, Ling Xiao Yue felt somewhat guilty, "As long as you recite it happily, mother will be happy."
"Really?" He opened his eyes wide and looked at her, then slowly said, "I will be happy, just a little." She held her fingers very close together, as if she were about to press them together.
When Ling Xiao Yue heard this, her expression was extremely calm. She patted her reciting back and softly said, "Alright, go to sleep. We have to leave tomorrow."
When she heard this, she became a little anxious, "Didn't Mommy get along with Daddy already? Why do you still want to leave? "
"We can't stay here forever. Be good and sleep well. We'll be able to see Auntie Yu tomorrow." Ling Xiao Yue did not allow herself to ask any more questions. She insisted on settling her down and covered herself with a blanket.
Lei Yunze stood at the entrance, listening to the mother and daughter duo's conversation. He had mixed emotions. Why did he forcefully keep Ling Xiao Yue and Nian Bing here? It was his father's duty to think of his daughter. To love and protect her, it was his father's duty. But as for Ling Xiao Yue? He thought for a moment. He wanted to protect her, perhaps because she was the mother he was thinking of.
Thinking of this, Lei Yunze's heart felt a lot more comfortable. He tried his best to convince himself, and slowly walked towards his bedroom.
When he woke up the next day, he heard some noises coming from downstairs. The corner of his mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile. It was still Ling Xiaoyue's breakfast that failed again today. As he thought about it, he stood up. However, when he saw the two boxes of greetings in front of him, his heart tightened.
"We're ready to go." Ling Xiao Yue changed into a new set of clothes as Nian Bing stood by the door. Just as Lei Yunze wanted to urge him to stay, he shut his mouth.
The current him didn't have such an identity.
"Be careful." He did not say much and just gave an order. Ling Xiao Yue smiled as she nodded in agreement. Pulling her luggage, she began reciting. Following the sound of the door closing, she disappeared from the house.
The room returned to its former silence. Lei Yunze didn't think that he would be so disappointed.
