Nanxin had already treated herself as a divorced woman.
"As you said, ma'am, you don't intend to succeed at once. Then give me face and meet my friend's son. I think you two are quite suitable. Maybe he will accept you, Madam. " Mother Li did not make it sound too full of herself.
If there was such a thing as absolute confidence, it seemed as if she had colluded with others. However, in reality, Mama Li was deliberately helping someone.
"Fine." Nanxin thought for a moment and agreed.
Since Mama Li had already said this, it wouldn't be good for her to take advantage of Mother Li.
On their blind date, Nanxin purposely dressed Dou Dou herself. She didn't wear her work clothes anymore, but a pair of pants, and on top of that, she was also wearing a short denim jacket. Yesterday, her feet were worn out, so she chose a pair of sneakers.
Her long chestnut hair was wavy and gave her a sense of maturity. Her face was lightly made up, and her lips were painted a honey-colored hue.
Dou Dou gave Nanxin a thumbs up, praising him proudly, "Dou Dou's mom is so beautiful."
Nanxin took out his car from the garage and brought Dou Dou over to the meeting place that Li's mother had arranged for them. The 'Scarlet' restaurant was a normal restaurant.
When they arrived, the man they had made an appointment with had already arrived.
"It's you." Nanxin was slightly surprised.
The man in front of her was Xiang He, and ever since she had met him at a certain banquet, he had started to court her. Nanxin was suspicious, Mother Li's son was actually Xiang He, the son of the mayor of A City.
Xiang He pulled a chair for Nanxin and smiled, "You are looking for daddy Dou Dou, am I not allowed to register?"
Dou Dou looked at Xiang He as he rolled and looked at him, "Uncle, I'm satisfied, mother will think about it."
The little guy was telling him that she also had the power to decide.
"Is that so?" Xiang He chuckled, and continued speaking.
Nanxin nodded in agreement.
Just as the dishes were served, Dou Dou immediately became troubled. She looked at Xiang He resentfully: "Uncle, you like to make decisions on your own accord. You didn't even ask your mother when you ordered the dishes."
"That's because I know what your mother likes to eat." Xiang He patiently explained to Dou Dou.
But Dou Dou was angry because there was nothing she liked to eat on the table. Blinking his big watery eyes, he pitifully stared at Xiang He, "Uncle, I want to eat ice cream, bring me along with you."
Nanxin could tell that Dou Dou was not satisfied with Xiang He and was purposely making things difficult for Xiang He.
Xiang He held onto her beans, "Nanxin, I'll take my child to buy ice cream first, wait a while."
"Yes." Nanxin nodded in agreement.
When she went out, she did not care about him at all. She walked with her short legs, looking at Dou Dou, Xiang He laughed involuntarily and followed behind her.
After buying the ice cream, Dou Dou was satisfied as she ate the ice cream. When Xiang He carried her back, she was too lazy to resist.
In front of the reflecting glass, Xiang He stopped his steps, "Dou Dou, look at us in the mirror, do we look similar?"
Dou Dou did not know what Xiang He meant by his question, and looked at him in confusion. "It does look a bit like it."
"Dou Dou, do you know that the children look like their parents? So I'm Dou Dou's dad. " Xiang He coaxed Dou Dou's voice, as if there was magic in it.
The astute Dou Dou was not so easily fooled by him. Her eyebrows raised as she stared at him, "Little kids' parents have always lived together. You seem to be luring a child into a child trafficker. "
His expression was that of a young adult's, and what he said was true.
Xiang He patted Dou Dou's head, "What a clever little girl."
Dou Dou leered at him, evading his outstretched hand, and returned the ice cream to him. " "Don't think you can buy me off with just one ice cream." It slid down his thigh from his embrace. Keep your distance from him.
You can't eat too much ice cream at once, her mother had told her. It was just ice cream. If she wanted it, her mother would buy it for her.
Xiang He ate the ice cream that Dou Dou threw to him, then started to lure Dou Dou over, "If Dou Dou doesn't want to eat it, I'm done eating it."
Dou Dou gave him a glance and frowned in disgust. "Childish!"
These two words completely shocked Xiang He. He did not know that children were so hard to deal with, so he changed his attitude and did not treat Dou Dou as a child.
"Dou Dou, if you call me daddy in the future, I will treat you and your mother well. Didn't Dou Dou want her father? I will accompany you and your mother to the amusement park, and the three of us will go together. I will pick you up from school with your mother, and after I become her father, her mother will have more time to spend with her. " Xiang He patiently tried to tempt Dou Dou.
Indeed, those points he mentioned, every single one of them, was enough to seduce Dou Dou. Dou Dou whispered softly, "You have to get Mom's permission first."
The corner of Xiang He's mouth raised up, "Alright then, you call me daddy first." ;
Dou Dou stammered out, "Daddy!" Then he added, "You have two months of probation. If your mother doesn't agree to be with you within two months, Dou Dou will stop calling you daddy."
"Alright." Xiang He's eyes revealed a smile.
Xiang He who had achieved his goal carried Dou Dou back.
"Nanxin, what are your considerations?" Xiang He returned Dou Dou to his seat and sat down.
"Sir, I think we are more suited to be friends." Nanxin said casually, then drank his fruit juice.
There was no need to think about this matter at all. She couldn't afford it. If the two of them didn't meet the same conditions, it would only increase their hardship.
Xiang He's eyes locked onto her, "Why?"
"I don't think your parents will agree with us." Nanxin said the most important question.
Xiang He's eyes lit up, what if they agree?
Nanxin raised his eyebrows, "I think that's impossible."
"Leave it to me. I will let my parents see you as soon as possible." Xiang He was very confident.
Nanxin didn't know where his confidence came from.
Seeing that Dou Dou had suddenly calmed down and no longer sought to cause trouble for Xiang He, it seemed that Dou Dou was satisfied with Xiang He.
Li Mo walked over from the opposite side and looked at Nanxin angrily.
Nanxin was puzzled, "Why are you here?"
"I've only been back in France for a month, and you've already come to make a date!" Li Mo roared as he questioned.
What gentleman's demeanor and self-restraint, they were all thrown to the side.
Nanxin felt that Li Mo was confused. He had persisted to come to see her for so many years, and she knew that he wasn't doing it for revenge. She had told him more than once that she didn't like him, but he had always insisted.
Her current hotel was opened using all of the money Zhang Bonian had left her. When the hotel had just started, she had encountered many difficulties, and it was Li Mo who had helped her then. So she didn't hate Li Mo and was willing to be his friend.
Nanxin frowned, "I want to find a father for Dou Dou. We're just friends, so you don't have the right to question me like that. "
The current Nanxin was even more cold-blooded, the words on his mouth, would always make people sad.
"Woman, I've told you before that I'm willing to take care of you and your mother, and that I'm willing to depend on you. You used to reject me on the grounds that you were married. Even if they were here first, it should be me. " Li Mo's eyes were full of anger.
His current Chinese was very good, and he said so much in full detail.
Nanxin maintained his patience, looked at Li Mo, and said, "This kind of thing is not a matter of first come first served, but a question of whether or not it's appropriate."
The argument that was too loud attracted a lot of attention. Dou Dou slid down from the chair and hugged Li Mo's thigh. She said in a soft voice, "Uncle Li, don't be angry. Dou Dou really likes you, but you don't look like Dou Dou. You can't be Dou Dou's dad.
Dou Dou said this reason, but it actually made Li Mo speechless for a while. How could he, a foreigner, be Chinese? Furthermore, he wasn't Dou Dou's father.
There were a lot of people in this restaurant, and their argument clearly affected others.
The waiter came up to remind them, "Customer, loud noises are not allowed here."
"I'm sorry." Xiang He apologized.
Li Mo threw a card to the waiter, "Clear the area, I will cover all the costs, don't disturb us."
The waiter took the card and smiled, "Customer, please do not affect our business."
This was a public place to begin with, so Li Mo being so tyrannical caused Nanxin to be slightly angry.
Nanxin looked at Li Mo, "Alright, if you don't want to be friends, then don't look for me in the future."
