Chapter 137: Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(26)
World Five. Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(26)
It turned out that Xue Xue's hunch was correct.
Xie Conglu was indeed Gao Changze's son.
His mother was the woman whom Gao Changze had kept in his heart for decades, the lover who was separated after being obstructed by the elders of the family in every possible way.
"I really didn't expect it." Xue Xue sighed with one hand on her chin. "Fate is really amazing, isn't it?"
"Yes, just like a TV drama, it has a twist."
Gao Qiqi only thought that the inspiration for the drama really came from reality. No one would have thought that Xue Xue's boyfriend who came over to apply for the job would become the boss's son and the little boss of the company? But then she thought of Xue Xue's "profound" words to herself when Xie Conglu went in for the interview, and suddenly had a sense of realization.
"Sister Xue, you already knew?"
"Huh?"
"Xie Conglu's identity."
"How is that possible?"
"But you said at the time."
"Did I say something?"
"Er"
Xue Xue's face was smiling so bright that she couldn't remember what the woman had said, but she felt she couldn't figure it out at the time, and now she suddenly did.
But it seemed difficult to organize into words to express it?
Seeing Gao Qiqi's tangled face, Xue Xue patted her on the shoulder. "Don't think too much."
"I know, I just"
"Xue Xue!"
Xie Conglu walked in.
Gao Qiqi once again sighed at the man's good appearance. She used to think that President Xi was already the best-looking young successful person, but compared with Xie Conglu, she felt that there was still something missing.
"Little, little boss, you, hello!"
These words made Xie Conglu's fist at his side clenched.
Xue Xue knew that this was the most direct physical reaction of a man when he was torn in his emotions.
"If he had turned a blind eye, or he never took action, then I would agree with you." Xue Xue continued. "But he's not. In the past decades, he has never given up looking for you. Even the name of the company he founded is named after your mother."
"Aunt Xie should also know this very well. That's why she accepted your father so soon. Of course, it may also be because she still loves him or because of the reality of life."
"But since the betrayed party is willing to give him another chance, why don't you try it too?"
"People's life is so long. It is better to face it bravely than to be afraid to escape. Maybe there will be unexpected surprises." Xue Xue's tone softened, like a teacher encouraging stubborn children and teaching earnestly. "I think Aunt Xie also hopes that your father and son can get along well."
When it comes to his mother, Xie Conglu's softening is more obvious.
Xue Xue knew that it was time to put more effort into breaking through Xie Conglu's heart, or else he would be reluctant to take the first step once he hesitated.
Xue Xue felt that Xie Conglu did not completely reject Gao Changze, but that his father was too unfamiliar with him and had been absent from his life for too long, so he was uneasy and pretended not to care.
"Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about Aunt Xie."
"Aunt Xie raised you alone. For a mother, you must be the most important and precious person to her. If you are not willing to accept Gao Changze in the end, Aunt Xie will surely reject him because she cares about your feelings, but do you still want Aunt Xie to go back to the old days?"
These words completely hit Xie Conglu's soft spot.
Aside from that, Gao Changze's financial resources will certainly provide the best treatment and care for his mother.
He closed his eyes.
"I see."
Xue Xue knew that the extent to which Xie Conglu cared about his mother would definitely be shaken.
"Then"
"Be back before ten o'clock."
"What?"
Xie Conglu's topic jumped so quickly that Xue Xue couldn't keep up.
"I said you have to be back by ten o'clock, so you can't go home to live with your parents anymore." Xie Conglu said, his voice suddenly dropped. "Because, I have prepared a present for you."
