Four years later.
A woman in a white dress slowly walked down the quiet street under the warm sunlight. She held a basket of fresh vegetables in her hands, and a satisfied smile hung on her lips.
Not long after she left the supermarket, her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and looked at it before smiling faintly as she answered the call.
"Pity, what's wrong?"
"Mommy, I want to eat potato chips!" he said in a coquettish voice.
Chu Liang sneered and then immediately became serious, "No way, you can't. You're still growing and eating junk food isn't good for you."
"Hmph." The little boy said in a low voice, "I'll go look for dad and ignore you."
Then, he hung up.
Chu Liang helplessly shook his head. He raised his head and saw the supermarket signboard. After a moment of hesitation, he walked around the corner.
It shouldn't be a problem to eat less, right?
After buying the chips, Chu Liang took a taxi home and saw a picture just as he entered the villa.
Bluesea sat at the desk by the window. The sunlight just so happened to shine down on him. The youth from before had shed his youth and looked a bit more manly.
Beside him was a small figure, staring intently at Bluesea's movements. It was obviously very interested.
"What are you doing?" Chu Liang put down the vegetable basket and walked towards the window.
Lan Ze raised his eyes and looked at Chu Liang. With a smile, he said, "Just tell him that I'm curious about how I usually work and let him watch."
When Chu Liang heard this, he frowned. He poked at the brat beside him and asked, "Did Mommy tell you to stay away from electron radiation?"
The little boy puffed his cheeks and raised his head, avoiding Chu Liang's finger.
A pair of peach blossom eyes, long eyelashes flashing up and down, a delicate and small nose, paired with a mouth that was neither thick nor thin, at such a young age she was already outstanding.
"Mommy, where are the chips?" Chu Yuexi immediately changed the topic. Chu Liang was stunned for a moment, and pointed at the bag he brought back. Before he could say anything, Chu Yuexi jumped off the desk and ran towards the living room.
"Slow down ~"
Chu Liang watched him everyday, his heart almost unable to bear the pressure.
Lan Ze followed Chu Liang's gaze and looked over. He chuckled and said, "He knows things beyond my imagination, so you might be able to relax a bit."
Chu Liang turned his head to look at him. For a moment, he didn't understand the meaning behind Lan Ze's words.
"There aren't many people in this world who have an IQ exceeding 150 at such a young age."
Hearing this, Chu Liang once again looked at Chu Yuexi. His little figure flipped open the bag of potato chips and climbed onto the sofa. Opening the bag, he began to eat the potato chips.
Because the potato chips might be too delicious, Chu Yuexi would occasionally roll her eyes and happily wave her arms.
From Chu Liang's point of view, he looked like a child.
"Right now, I just wish I could be happy." Chu Liang withdrew his gaze and walked towards the kitchen to prepare some food.
Lan Ze looked at her back and a trace of unfathomable emotion flashed in his eyes.
Because he was already used to cooking, in only half an hour, Chu Liang finished a table of balanced nutrition delicacies.
Just as she was putting away her tray, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Chu Liang walked over to pick up the phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. He was a bit surprised, but still answered the call:
"Hello, I'm Chu Liang."
"It's me." A familiar male voice came through the phone, causing Chu Liang's body to stiffen.
Lan Ze noticed her strange mood and immediately walked over. He worriedly asked, "Who is it?"
Chu Liang didn't answer and took a deep breath to calm his heart. At this time, the ball of potato chips also abandoned the potato chips and eagerly came to his mother's side.
"It's not easy to find your way." In short, a chuckle. "Now in State Y."
Chu Liang's body stiffened as he raised his head to look at Bluesea.
Because he was close enough to hear their conversation, when he heard the name, he felt a surge of disgust.
This person actually had the nerve to disturb Chu Liang.
"I don't have anything to do with you. I just feel like the family that I've been with for more than ten years has suddenly disappeared. I miss you a bit."
In short, he thought that he was speaking the truth. Chu Liang's mood improved and his tone also eased up a bit, "So?"
"I happen to be coming to Country Y for a business trip tomorrow and I'm about to board the plane. Let's meet up."
Chu Liang creased his eyebrows. He subconsciously wanted to reject her, but in short, he cut off her escape route, "Think carefully, if you don't want to see me, then your son …"
Chu Liang lowered his head and looked at Chu Yuexi. He couldn't help but clench his fists and take a deep breath, "Okay."
After hanging up, Bluesea walked in front of the computer and posted on the dark net, "Who is the one that leaked out Chu Liang's location?"
However, because DoubleL has been scuba diving for many years to do not accept the task, this kind of errand group in the world has a new generation of rookies.
There was no lack of people who were against the DL, so they accepted the mission and leaked the news about Chu Liang to the Jane family.
After Bluesea finished his investigation, he prepared to leave to find that person, but he was stopped by Chu Liang.
"Don't go."
Blue Ze turned his head to look at Chu Liang in worry. Chu Liang, on the other hand, shook his head.
"Anyway, he's been found. In short, he can't do anything to me. I'm going to see what the hell he's up to."
In order to be merciful, Chu Liang was finally going to meet someone he was once familiar with.
His cell phone rang. It sounded like a death call. Chu Liang raised his head and looked towards the airport entrance.
A row of bodyguards in black clothing walked out first, opening up a path. After them, a figure wearing a silver suit and sunglasses walked out.
Chu Liang surveyed his surroundings, but he didn't see any trace of Qiao Lu, so he was a bit suspicious.
They seemed to be inseparable all along?
"Hey." Simply put, he took off his sunglasses and waved his hand towards Chu Liang. A warm smile appeared on his face, but it was unknown if it was a fake smile in Chu Liang's eyes.
In short, after looking Chu Liang up and down, he found out that she was completely different from before. She was even wearing a light-colored dress that she had never worn before, and her ponytail, which used to stand up high, was now down and clipped to a length that was neither long nor short.
Chu Liang felt a bit uncomfortable under this simple stare. He frowned, "What are you looking at?"
Since he had already left the Jian family, Chu Liang didn't have anything else to worry about.
Briefly, he laughed, his lips curving into a smile. "You've really changed."
Chu Liang rolled his eyes at him, "I've met him too. Can I leave now?" She turned to leave, but was held by her arm.
"Wait."
Chu Liang turned his head to look at her. In a word, he changed his appearance from that of a dandy and said in a serious tone:
"I broke up with Qiao Lu."
