Chapter 866 Maybe He Was an Affectionate Man

Hearing what Chu Mochen’s mother said, Song Yunxuan smiled, saying, “Well, maybe you’re right.”

Chu Mochen’s mother was pleased to see her agreement and nodded, saying, “I’m happy that you don’t blame him.”

Song Yunxuan smiled silently but didn’t say anything.

How could she ever blame him?

Indeed, she wasn’t happy when Chu Mochen brought her here. On the other hand, however, she knew how much Chu Mochen loved her.

Once she knew it, she decided to pass over it.

Chu Mochen bringing her here was a case. If he simply took her to the Chu Family while remembering nothing about her, she might be angry and cold.

Now that Chu Mochen recollected it all, she just overlooked what he did.

She was just a little upset and exhausted due to what she had to do to satisfy Chu Mochen’s needs, and luckily, Mei Qi was fine.

Besides, it wouldn’t be long before the baby was due.

It was a good thing to have Chu Mochen be with her and protect her.

Song Yunxuan talked with Chu Mochen’s mother till dinnertime, and then they had dinner together.

…

In the Shao Family, Gu Changle asked her lawyer to make modifications to the inheritance transfer documents, and then Shao Tianze signed them all.

Gu Changle watched him signing those papers.

The smile on her face was getting bigger.

After years of waiting, she finally got what she wanted.

Shao Tianze signed all the documents and contracts.

The lawyer said to Gu Changle, “Miss Gu, the Shao enterprise and over fifty villas and properties your sister bought all over the world are yours from now on.”

“Can you help calculate the total price of the fifty housing properties?”

“I’ll give you an answer tomorrow, Miss Gu.”

Figuring that it was late, Gu Changle nodded, saying, “OK, thank you for today. I shall not keep you for dinner tonight because I have something to tell Tianze. Please go and have some rest.”

The lawyer didn’t have the willingness to have dinner with them, either. He wanted to go home early as he had finished his job.

Since Gu Changle asked, he nodded, saying, “I shall leave now, Miss Gu. Call on me anytime.”

Gu Changle nodded and watched him leave.

Then, she turned to Shao Tianze, asking, “Will you help me?”

“You don’t need my help, do you?”

Shao Tianze laughed coldly.

Gu Changle said, “Of course, I need your help. I can’t fight Song Yunxuan all alone. We can defeat Song Yunxuan only if you help me and fight together with me.”

“Then what’s the problem to let me own the Shao enterprise?”

“Of course, there is a problem. Look at you. Song Yunxuan will see you as a target if the properties are in your hand.”

“You think she’ll overlook you with the whole Shao enterprise in your hand?”

Shao Tianze asked Gu Changle.

Gu Changle smiled, saying, “Of course, she will prey on me, but not that hungrily, I guess.”

Gu Changle explained, “I’m not as good as you, so she’ll lay down her guard as she knows the Shao enterprise is under my control. Besides, she’s going to deliver the baby. Maybe we can fight back at that time.”

“But Chu Mochen is alive.”

“Why are you defending her?” Gu Changle didn’t believe in Shao Tianze’s words.

Shao Tianze repeated reluctantly, “I mean, he’s really alive.”

“But he’s not with Song Yunxuan, and you don’t have any proof of that.”

“Why would I lie to you?”

Shao Tianze asked Gu Changle.

Gu Changle pondered, saying, “I believe you, but I’ll still hold the general meeting. I don’t know what’s gonna happen, and how would I know that if I don’t have a try?”

Gu Changle was so stubborn.

Hearing that, Shao Tianze stopped persuading but reminded her instead, “Be careful, then.”

…

Chu Mochen went on a business trip for about three days.

He returned just before the day that Gu Changle would hold the general meeting.

Song Yunxuan felt uneasy, somehow.

She already sent Mei Qi to attend that meeting for her.

But still, she thought that it would be fun if she could attend the meeting by herself.

The only thing that held her back was her swollen belly.

Chu Mochen caught up on sleep to deal with jet lag after he came back.

Song Yunxuan was free to enjoy reading and making flower arrangements.

In the middle of the prenatal education with lullabies, the teacher turned to look at the door.

Song Yunxuan followed her gaze and saw Chu Mochen, who had just woken up, was leaning against the door watching at her in his pajama.

The prenatal education teacher was young, intelligent, and gentle.

When she looked at Chu Mochen, there was a look of shyness in her eyes.

Seeing her look, Song Yunxuan was aware that there must be some ripples stirred up in the young girl’s heart.

She pondered, saying, “Why don’t we keep this up tomorrow?”

“Sure,” the teacher answered immediately.

She walked out the door with a kind of lovely shy look right after that.

But Chu Mochen didn’t feel it that way.

After her leaving, Chu Mochen came to Song Yunxuan and sat on the blanket. His fluffy hair made him look like a 20-year-old young boy. He reached his hand to feel Song Yunxuan’s belly, trying to sense the kicking baby.

Song Yunxuan watched and just let him touch her belly.

It seemed that the baby also felt him. Its little fists moved in her womb.

Song Yunxuan couldn’t help but smile as she lifted her clothes and saw the bulges made by the baby’s small fists.

Chu Mochen was enchanted by that smile as he looked up at her face.

It was like his soul was absorbed by her smile.

After a while, he said, “Maybe we should spare Shao Tianze’s life.”

“I don’t want to finish him yet.”

“But we must eliminate Gu Changle.”

His voice was plain but frightful.

Noticing the tone in his voice, Song Yunxuan looked up at his eyes, asking, “Why do you suddenly think so?”

“I heard that Shao Tianze gave everything to Gu Changle. It seems she wants to be another you.”

Song Yunxuan smiled, saying, “There’s nothing strange if she wants to become just like her elder sister.”

“Even if we don’t kill her, the stupid woman will finally bring about her own destruction.”

“If so, you don’t have to get your hands dirty, then.”

Song Yunxuan said.

Chu Mochen put his fingers on her belly gently, saying, “But I don’t like her imitating you, Changge, especially when she’s an illegitimate daughter, the proof of your father betraying your mother.”

Chu Mochen hated Gu Changle about her identity.

Hearing that, Song Yunxuan looked at him with a soft look, saying, “You’re right. It seems that, as her elder sister, I’ve been too nice to her.”

“It’s time to uncover the baby’s identity.”

“Uncover what?”

Song Yunxuan asked.

Chu Mochen frowned, pinching her chin slightly and saying with his eyes fixed on hers, “The baby’s father, of course. You don’t hope everyone to consider my child as Lu Feng’s, do you?”

“I thought you would wait for good timing.”

“No more waiting. The general meeting tomorrow will be a perfect chance.”

Hearing what Chu Mochen said about the meeting, Song Yunxuan’s heart flipped.

Chu Mochen looked at her lowering eyes, saying smilingly, “I know what you’re thinking about.”

Song Yunxuan smiled.

Sure enough, this man could always see her through.

“Mei Qi is now in Yuncheng. I didn’t hurt him in Harbor City, and neither will I in Yuncheng. You don’t have to try all means to protect him from me.”

“Really?”

“When have I ever lied to you?”

Hearing that, Song Yunxuan smiled, saying, “That’s good.”

Chu Mochen barely lied to her.

But he must have lied.

She knew that everyone in the world would lie.

Gu Cheng was just a case. Ever since she could remember things, she could feel that her mother was special to her father. It was just that her mother died too young.

She had never thought that the man loving her mother so deeply should mess up with another woman and bring his illegitimate child home.

Wasn’t the betrayal another kind of d*mned lie?

Luckily, her mother died early.

She was in heaven and didn’t have to know any of this.

“I’ll send my men to protect you at that meeting.”

Chu Mochen pulled her into his arms.

Song Yunxuan blinked, saying, “Can I let Mei Qi go with me?”

“Your keeping talking about him really makes me want to kill him.”

“But you know you can’t.”

“Then get him out of my sight.”

“OK. I’ll do it.”

Song Yunxuan said.

Hearing that, Chu Mochen lowered his head and kissed her at the corner of her lips.

“I’ll teach the child by myself.”

“Maybe we should let Mei Qi teach our child. He is a great teacher, and I’ve learned a lot from him when I was a child.”

“Why should our child learn to be scheming from him?”

“Should he learn that from you?”

Song Yunxuan said with a smile.

Chu Mochen said, “Our child will be the most precious thing to me, so I won’t let him experience any of the struggling and fighting.”

“It reminds me of the words my father once told my mother.”

She thought about her father as a young man with her beautiful mother.

She thought about those love stories of her father at a young age.

He could have married a better and richer woman.

But Gu Changge’s mother was the only woman he loved.

He had messed up with many women but only married and recognized her.

Even the only recognized inheritor was the daughter of him and his wife, even if their only child was a girl.

He betrayed her mother, but to some extent, he was an affectionate man.

But he was not a dedicated man.

Maybe he had never loved anyone as much as he loved her mother.
