Xia Lan never thought that this man would actually ask such a straightforward question in front of her.

As if he had mustered up enough courage, Xiao Ze's small, fat hands pulled at Xia Lan's sleeves, raising his head to ask: "Auntie, are you going to be my mother?"

Gu Xi Jue also never thought that Xiao Ze would ask such a question, but what was strange was that he did not dislike it either, he just felt that it was a little unexpected.

The word "good" almost came out of her mouth as she raised her eyes to meet with Gu Xi Jue's deep gaze. She swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and only then was she able to retract her reason.

No matter how much she missed her son, no matter how much she liked Xiao Ze, she couldn't snatch away someone else's child.

"Auntie likes you a lot too. How about this? If you miss Auntie in the future, you can find her anytime, okay?" Although she didn't want to disappoint Xiao Ze, she couldn't lie to the child either. She could only use another method to make up for the deficiency in the child's heart.

Xiao Ze knew that he was rejected, so he pouted and nodded: "Alright."

In the end, he still felt somewhat disappointed.

Along the way, Xia Lan felt as if her heart was riding a roller coaster, moving up and down, moving up and down, moving up and down, it was too exciting!

Gu Xi Jue's cold voice sounded at the right time: "Where is your residence?"

"Uh, it's still early, so I don't need to trouble Gourmet to send me back. I can just take the subway myself." Xia Lan wanted to quickly escape from his line of sight, because she discovered that when she was talking with Xiao Ze, his gaze was always on her. Especially when Xiao Ze asked her if she wanted to be his mother, she was really unable to understand what those deep eyes of hers were thinking.

"Address!" Gu Xi Jue asked impatiently once more.

Seeing that his attitude was so resolute, coupled with her boss's current expression, which looked extremely hard to mess with, Xia Lan had no choice but to obediently report his address.

As the car drove through the residential area she rented, Xia Lan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Finally home!

"Gourmet, thank you for sending me back. See you tomorrow. " Xia Lan raised his hand and waved it in embarrassment. He originally wanted to make himself seem more natural, but didn't expect that it would be even more awkward.

Gu Xi Jue glanced at her indifferently, and ignored her.

"Beautiful auntie, is this your home?" Xiao Ze happily followed Xia Lan out of the car.

"Yeah. Xiao Ze, see you later. See you another day. " Xia Lan bid farewell to the little fellow with curved eyebrows.

Xiao Ze pulled her sleeve, and turned his head to say with a laugh: "Father, you can go back first, I want to be Xia Lan's guest."

His father is the CEO of the Yattai Group! A city's leading figure being ordered around by a four year old baby was truly a wonder of the world!

Indeed, Gu Xi Jue was not someone easy to order around. He coldly ordered: "Get over here right now!"

Xia Lan disapproved of Gu Xi Jue speaking so coldly and unyieldingly to Xiao Ze. Couldn't he speak properly when he had something to say? But no matter how dissatisfied she was, she didn't have the position to say anything.

"I don't want to. I want to go to the pretty auntie's house as a guest." Xiao Ze's fleshy body twisted, unwilling to get on the carriage no matter what.

"Come up!" Gu Xi Jue's face sank, the 3D figure that was half-hidden in the carriage looked extremely fierce.

Gu Xi Jue's cold tone frightened Xiao Ze. This child had been spoiled by his grandfather and grandmother since he was young, and everyone who knew that his father was Gu Xi Jue, was even more so obedient to him.

It was as if neither father nor son were willing to give in. One was sitting in the car, while the other stood outside. They were in a stalemate.

"I'll tell you one last time, come up. Otherwise, let's see how I'll take care of you!" Gu Xi Jue's expression was terrifyingly dark, and even Xia Lan, who was standing at the side, felt a little afraid.

Compared to when he had scolded her in the meeting room earlier, his temper had been greatly restrained.

With a "wow" sound, Xiao Ze suddenly burst into tears. Her tears rolled down from the corner of his eyes, and her aggrieved sobs gradually turned into wailing, crying to heaven and earth.

"I want to go to the pretty aunt's house, I want to go to the pretty aunt's house …" Xiao Ze cried as she shouted, her voice so loud that it almost startled the swallows on the treetops.

Gu Xi Jue took off his seat belt, his face ashen, as he got off the car door. Clang!

He grabbed onto Xiao Ze's collar, scaring Xia Lan so much that he thought that wanted to beat him up. Xia Lan stepped forward and grabbed his wrist.

When her cold gaze fell on Xia Lan's body, she couldn't help but shiver.

Even though she was afraid of the current Gu Xi Jue, she could not stand seeing Xiao Ze cry in such a manner. Let Xiao Ze come to my house for dinner. "

Xiao Ze was also frightened by Gu Xi Jue's fiery temper and did not dare to wail anymore. However, he was still sobbing softly.

"It's only a dinner..." Xia Lan opened her mouth once again, but when she touched Gu Xi Jue's dark and cold eyes, her voice became much softer.

Only then did Gu Xi Jue place him on the ground and remind him, "Don't be fooled by him."

Hearing his words, Xia Lan looked at him reproachfully and muttered in a low voice, "Is there anyone who talks about their own son like that? How can there be such a heartless father."

Although her voice was soft, her words still entered Gu Xi Jue's ears clearly.

Just as Gu Xi Jue's eyes were staring, Xia Lan immediately squatted down and took out a tissue to wipe Xiao Ze's tears. "Be good and don't cry, Daddy agrees to let you go to Aunty's house."

"Yes." Xiao Ze indignantly opened his arms and hugged Xia Lan's neck tightly, his head resting on Xia Lan's shoulder. His small face that was full of tears revealed a look of satisfaction.

Gu Xi Jue had long gotten used to Xiao Ze being like this, he even suspected that this brat would not become an actor during the general assembly. As long as he was punished, and there were other people around, this brat would definitely gain some sympathy and cry himself to death, acting out a good show.

Just as Xiao Ze was about to hug her, Xia Lan immediately picked him up and walked inside the building.

It was just that she felt that it was strange, why did the Gourmet follow them as well? Did he misunderstand something?
