Little Mo, I'm back.
The days without Xiao Yan, gradually became calmer. Qiao Mo was a person who could hide her feelings and endure loneliness. No matter how unwilling and uncomfortable his heart was, after it exploded, she would always appear abnormally calm.
In these past few days, Qiao Mo often came to see Lu Hailan. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but every time sshe looked at Lu Hailan, he felt that Lu Hailan was thinner and weaker than before.
"Mom, did you not take good care of yourself and instead work for Rong Chengmo's company all day?"
Qiao Mo asked as she cooked for Lu Hailan in the kitchen.
Lu Hailan laughed involuntarily: "Recently, I've been resting at home and haven't really been to the company. On the other hand, you are about to give birth, so don't walk back and forth. "
Qiao Mo did not think much of it, "The doctor said that it is fine, the more it is in labor, the more I cannot be lazy, it is easier to have it. Maternity without regular movement has a high risk of dystocia. "
Lu Hailan nodded her head, lowering her eyes, and called out to her: "Xiaoxiao."
"Hmm?" Qiao Mo was cutting a cabbage, and did not turn around to see the expression on Lu Hailan's face.
Lu Hailan sighed and asked: "How's the divorce procedures for you and Xiao Yan going?"
Almost two months had passed and no one had ever heard of the name "Xiao Yan" before. It was as if it had been a lifetime since then and even now, the heart rate still fluctuated greatly.
Qiao Mo's actions of cutting the vegetables paused for three seconds before she regained her composure. With a smile, she continued cutting the vegetables and replied: "He might still be on business, I didn't hear any news that he is returning to Seahold."
When he returns to Seahold, he will go through the divorce formalities.
Qiao Mo silently thought in her heart.
Lu Hailan pursed her lips and asked: "Xiaoxiao, are you …. Regret it? "
Qiao Mo lowered her head and mechanically cut the vegetables, her smile bitter and pale, "No. Besides, even if I regret it, so what? What else can I do about the decision Xiao Yan made? "
Even if she was carrying his two children in her womb, it wouldn't be a threat to him.
He had done nothing wrong, but he did not love her.
"Xiao Yan, this man is indeed not worth entrusting his entire life to. Even if you are still properly together with him now, perhaps you will still end up in the same situation in the future. It's better to let him go right now."
Qiao Mo did not speak anymore. After the meal was finished, he ate it together with Lu Hailan.
Unfortunately, Rong Chengmo was also home today.
It was lunch time, and after Rong Chengmo finished his business, he went downstairs to the study room.
Qiao Mo was startled. It was not a Saturday weekend, why would he be home?
Every time Qiao Mo came to visit Lu Hailan, she would come when Rong Chengmo was not at home.
But today, why was he suddenly at home?
Lu Hailan smiled and patted the back of his hand, "President Rong is resting at home today, it just so happens that you came. You youngsters talk a lot together. "
It was not that Qiao Mo didn't know that Lu Hailan wanted to play matchmaker with him, but Rong Chengmo and her were really not the same person.
Furthermore, a few years ago, Rong Chengmo had colluded with his and did things that she would never forgive.
Even if Rong Chengmo blocked a bullet for her.
However, it was impossible to go from one yard to another.
Moreover, right now, Qiao Mo basically could not fall in love with any other man.
Qiao Mo lightly pulled at the corner of her mouth, smiling appropriately, "Mom, dinner is ready, I ate quite a lot in the morning, so I'm not too hungry now, so I'll be leaving first. I'll come and see you next time. "
"Eh …?" Xiaoxiao... "
Qiao Mo had already donned a windbreaker and carried her bag out.
Rong Chengmo followed him out.
"What, you're rejecting me just like that?"
Qiao Mo paused in her steps, and said with a sneer. "I think it's not that you can't tell, but my mother wants to play you and me together right?"
"That's good."
"President Rong really has a strong taste, you want a woman who's carrying her opponent?" Qiao Mo ridiculed.
Rong Chengmo didn't know whether to laugh or cry at these words, "Xiao Yan and I are indeed competing, but if you were to divorce Xiao Yan and become free, how can I be considered to have a strong taste in my mouth?"
Qiao Mo pursed her lips, "You and I, will never be able to do it."
After Qiao Mo finished her words, she turned and left in big strides.
Rong Chengmo looked at Qiao Mo's leaving figure, and squinted his eyes.
Was she being too full of herself?
… ….
Returning to the New Garden Villa, days after days of mechanically copying and pasting.
Qiao Mo sat on the sofa and looked out the window at the ocean. She held her phone tightly.
Perhaps, it was time to take the initiative and call Xiao Yan and remind him that it was time to go through the divorce procedures.
Qiao Mo took a deep breath, and used an unknown amount of courage to call out.
But this phone call had been ringing for a long time, until a mechanical female voice told him that no one was listening at the moment. Only then did Qiao Mo dejectedly slide the phone beside his ear down.
Why didn't Xiao Yan answer her phone?
Busy? Or was he simply not willing to accept it?
She bit her lips and sent him a text message.
"When are we going to go through the divorce procedures?"
At that time, in the United States.
Xiao Yan was wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown, looking at the messages on his phone, he clicked on a reply.
The man's slender fingers moved back and forth as he typed the words repeatedly in the reply bar.
"I think you …"
Subsequently, it was deleted.
However, as if he was unwilling, he typed out three more words, "I miss you", but in the end, it was all deleted.
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Then, he threw his phone to the side and ignored it.
Every cell in his body, every nerve, was constantly telling him to think about her, to think about her.
Ever since they parted, the heavy rain in his heart never stopped.
… ….
Qiao Mo held onto her phone, but was unable to find a reply.
His heart was disheartened and his heart was cold.
She rubbed her belly and lowered her eyes slightly, looking at her belly that was getting bigger and bigger. She was still holding onto that last sliver of hope in her heart, "Baby, tell me, when you're about to have a baby, will Daddy come and see you?"
Qiao Mo thought that the moment they became pregnant, their family of four would be together forever.
Even if they weren't forever, they would be together for at least the next fifty years.
But why was it that their time together had become so short?
Qiao Mo still remembered that when they went to Yunnan to travel, a donkey friend of the group had recorded a video for them. At that time, Xiao Yan had given her one of the videos.
It was as though they were dividing up the assets, each of them sharing one portion.
Qiao Mo frowned, she stood up and took out her copy from the drawer.
In the video, the two of them are like fish in water trying to kiss each other through glass.
In such a short period of time, such a deep and colorful relationship had become worthless.
Until now, Qiao Mo didn't know why, but if Xiao Yan said he didn't love his, then he didn't.
In the days while Xiao Yan was not by her side, she had gone to do the maternity exam. He lived alone, with fewer smiles and moods, and he didn't celebrate or grieve, only living a peaceful life.
She suddenly thought back to what she had said before. A person's life is so long, who knows what will happen in the next second? But she knew that without him, she wouldn't be that happy.
And at that time, what he replied was not that we would be together forever, but … Maybe someone else will make you happy.
A thought flashed past Qiao Mo's mind. Now that she thought about it, many of the words that she had said before seemed to have been premeditated. Or perhaps, Xiao Yan had already planned on leaving her and throwing away her prelude long ago.
She could still clearly remember the first time Xiao Yan went missing for twenty days, and how long she had lost contact with him. She had rushed thousands and thousands of times into New York City to find him, and at that time, even though he clearly missed and loved her, he had silently restrained himself.
In the end … Why?
Qiao Mo's heart suddenly became anxious, not because she was excited, but because she was afraid, because something really happened to Xiao Yan.
Qiao Mo held her phone, and dialed Zhao Qian's number.
After the call was made — —
"Assistant Zhao, Xiao Yan told me before that he wanted to go through with the divorce procedures, but I'm calling and texting now, why isn't he replying?"
Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment before he asked, "Madam, how long has it been since you last contacted the Boss?"
"Forty-five days."
Qiao Mo blurted out. After she said it, even she was stunned for a moment.
As it turned out, she had been counting the days since she had last seen the world.
Every day she had parted with him, she had remembered the days so clearly.
"Madam, I'll go check it out. Please wait a moment. The Boss has been away for a long time, so apart from videoconferencing, I haven't really talked to him on the phone. "
"Alright, if you have any news, please let me know."
"Sure, no problem."
… ….
After Qiao Mo hung up the phone, she felt powerless.
One day, he suddenly disappeared from your field of vision for no reason. No matter how you tried to find him or chase him, he never appeared again. It was even more powerless than being toyed with.
Qiao Mo didn't know how to handle it. With the relationship between his and Xiao Yan right now, she didn't know whether or not she should give it his all again.
With so many questions, and so many doubts, Qiao Mo didn't know if she was truly overthinking it, or if Xiao Yan was really hiding something.
Su Qingwan … With him now?
At this moment, what was Xiao Yan doing?
Qiao Mo stood in front of the french window, caressed her stomach, and muttered: "Baby, there will be a day when daddy comes back, right?"
As long as she waited patiently, she would.
… ….
Sea City's New Garden Villa faced the sea. Its huge windows were wide open and the wind that blew in blew the translucent white curtains into the air.
The woman on the sofa seemed to be waiting for someone who hadn't returned. She was finally tired. She was half lying on the sofa, sleeping soundly.
After Xiao Yan entered the house, he saw that in the chilly house, there was only Qiao Mo.
She slept soundly. Even when he entered the room, she did not wake up.
Xiao Yan lowered his pace, and slowly walked over. When he reached her, he sat down on the sofa, and quietly stared at her sleeping face.
How long had it been since he had looked at her this way?
How long had it been since he had looked at her so seriously?
How long had it been since he quietly approached her?
Xiao Yan's large hands subconsciously stroked her hair that was messy because she was sleeping soundly. He lowered his head, and gently kissed her forehead. His voice was slightly hoarse and weak.
"Little Mo, I'm back."
