Chapter 964 - 961

Chapter 964: Chapter 961

Enchanted by beauty? For Le Zhengsheng, this is quite unbelievable.

But, it must be being enchanted by beauty!

Two years ago, Gu Xiaoning could still be described as kind, pure, and lovely. But after that betrayal... What does she have left? Besides this appearance, what does she have left?

Le Zhengsheng laughed coldly to himself, men, really are shallow!

Unfortunately, he is also a man, a shallow man.

"Listen." Le Zhengsheng’s thin lips parted slightly, his eyelids drooped, "I allow you to see Jiujiu."

"..."

The moment he spoke, Gu Xiaoning was dumbfounded. What did he say? Did she hear it wrong? Is what he said true?

"Can I really?"

Le Zhengsheng’s thick brows furrowed, "I live with my father, the old man likes Jiujiu very much. I usually don’t have much time because Jiujiu clings to me... So, I take her to work with me. Since you want to see Jiujiu, you have to take responsibility!"

Gu Xiaoning was silent, not quite understanding his meaning.

"When I can’t take care of her, you must be there, understood?" Le Zhengsheng explained.

A shiver ran through Gu Xiaoning’s mind, and the smile on her lips couldn’t be concealed, "Really? Is this... really true?"

She smiled, still as innocent and pure as before.

Le Zhengsheng’s Adam’s apple rolled, "Hmm." He resisted the urge to kiss her.

"I understand!" Gu Xiaoning nodded repeatedly, "I understand."

Le Zhengsheng extended his hand in front of her, "Give me the phone."

"Ah?" Gu Xiaoning was shocked.

Le Zhengsheng was too lazy to say it again, bending down, extending his hand into her back jeans pocket... This was her habit, which he remembered.

Being too close, Gu Xiaoning’s body stiffened.

It was just a moment, but Gu Xiaoning’s face already turned red with shame... That posture just now seemed like an embrace.

Le Zhengsheng held her phone, "Password?"

"Uh..." Gu Xiaoning hadn’t spoken yet.

Le Zhengsheng tried it, immediately frowned, "It’s not Jiujiu’s birthday?"

"Give it to me, I’ll enter it." Gu Xiaoning entered the password, and the keyboard was unlocked, "Here."

Le Zhengsheng frowned, feeling uncomfortable.

He had thought, given Gu Xiaoning’s attitude toward Jiujiu... the password would be Jiujiu’s birthday, but it’s not! So what is the password? The password implies a person’s psychology. Just like his password, it’s still Gu Xiaoning’s birthday.

So, what is Gu Xiaoning’s password about? Related to what?

Le Zhengsheng fiddled for a while, returned it to Gu Xiaoning, "I added Jiujiu’s teacher’s WeChat number, you can keep updated... If the teacher assigns any tasks, they will be posted there, keep an eye on it."

"Oh."

Gu Xiaoning nodded seriously, looking a little dazed.

"Tsk." Le Zhengsheng sneered, "Do you think being a mother is easy? If you think you just need to hug her, coax her, play with her, and make her laugh, then I advise you... not to see her again!"

"No!" Gu Xiaoning shook her head in a panic, "I’ve never thought like that, Jiujiu is my daughter, I’m willing to do anything for her."

Le Zhengsheng curled his lips joyfully, "Good."

...

Getting up in the morning, Le Zhengsheng felt very refreshed.

Le Zhengpeng was having breakfast with Jiujiu, the old man’s only grandchild was Jiujiu, naturally spoiling her.

"Jiujiu, have another bite, just one more."

Jiujiu’s face was covered with porridge, looking like a little kitten.

Le Zhengsheng frowned upon seeing it, "Dad, don’t give her too much to eat... Jiujiu is a girl, too chubby."

"Eh." Le Zhengpeng disagreed, "What’s wrong with being chubby? Even if our Jiujiu is chubby, she’s a beauty, the genes are here! Her parents are good-looking..."

Suddenly, both father and son froze.

Le Zhengsheng looked more serious, drinking coffee, flipping through the morning political news.

Since it was mentioned, Le Zhengpeng had to say, "Ah Sheng, what... exactly are you planning?"

"Nothing." Le Zhengsheng pretended not to understand, pinching Jiujiu’s cheek, "Jiujiu, hurry up and finish eating, then go to work with daddy!"

"Le Zhengsheng!" Le Zhengpeng roared, "You always do this! Today, I might as well say it clearly, I will not agree to you living alone for the rest of your life! I love Jiujiu very much, but... you must leave a boy for the Lezheng Family!"

The more he spoke, the more excited he got, "Before, you didn’t want to because of your health, that’s fine. Now, there’s no restriction, I absolutely don’t agree with that thought! There’s never been a precedent for marrying into the Lezheng Family, it can’t start with you! I just want a grandson... a remarriage can solve this, why aren’t you willing?"

Le Zhengsheng paused, yes, remarriage could solve it.

But, how to solve the remarriage issue?

Le Zhengsheng pulled a tissue over, wiped Jiujiu’s mouth, "Jiujiu, are you full?"

"Hmm." Jiujiu nodded, nestled into her father’s arms, "Go, go."

"Alright." Le Zhengsheng laughed and picked up his daughter, "Dad, I’m leaving first... you continue to think slowly!"

"You, you... you brat!"

Le Zhengsheng walked out holding Jiujiu, his mood actually wasn’t that light.

His father was getting old, wanting to find a daughter-in-law for his son, wanting to hold a grandson, there was nothing wrong with these feelings.

For the past two years, faced with his father’s longing, Le Zhengsheng wasn’t without guilt and remorse.

Father was old, his wish was so simple... yet the son couldn’t fulfill it.

Le Zhengsheng thought of Gu Xiaoning, if... they could reconcile, wouldn’t the problems be solved?

"Jiujiu, let’s go." To see mommy.

Le Zhengsheng drove, first sending Jiujiu to Aunt Gu’s place.

When they arrived, Gu Xiaoning hadn’t come yet.

About ten minutes later, Gu Xiaoning rushed in, panting. "Ah..."

Le Zhengsheng curled his lips, his tone displeased, "You’re late."

"Yes." Gu Xiaoning nodded, "I hurried as much as I could, but it was traffic jam on the way."

Le Zhengsheng hesitated to speak, wanting her to quit that job, but... what position was he in now? He’s just an ex-husband, does he have that right?

Jiujiu, a chubby little thing, fell off the sofa.

"Jiujiu!"

"Ah!" Gu Xiaoning was startled, rushed over, picked up Jiujiu, "Jiujiu! Scared me! Are you okay?"

"..." Jiujiu looked at her mother with a bewildered face, laughed, "Hehehe!"

Le Zhengsheng was used to it, "Don’t worry, nothing’s wrong, Jiujiu’s a kid, not afraid of falling."

Even though he said so, Gu Xiaoning still frowned... mothers and fathers are always different, after all, Jiujiu is a piece of flesh from her, the pain of childbirth, only Gu Xiaoning has endured it.

"I’m leaving." Le Zhengsheng stood up, "I’ll come to pick her up later."

"Okay." Gu Xiaoning, holding Jiujiu, had a smile on her lips.

She never thought, really never thought... she could still interact with Jiujiu like this, as if it were a gift from heaven.
