“Zoey , is this the place where you grew up as a child?” KK asked with a tilted head.
“Hmm.”
“There’s a swing there, Nini wants to play too!” The little princess has been fantasizing about swinging for a long time. But she is still too young, usually Zoey is not allowed to do so.
“When you grow up, you can play whatever you like. But not yet.”
A big and two small are talking about, the door was suddenly pulled open from the inside. The person who came to open the door was Li Ma, as soon as she saw Zoey, whom she brought up single-handedly, she choked up at once, “Second Miss … is actually Second Miss. Madam, the second young lady is back! The second young lady is back!”
Soon, Yami Hu ran out from inside. As soon as she saw Zoey standing there with tears streaming down her face, Yami Hu couldn’t stop her tears.
“Mom …,” Zoey called out chokingly, flinging herself into Yami Hu’s arms.
“You unfilial daughter! Unfilial daughter! What are you doing back here?” Yami Hu scolded, but her tone was full of heartache. Holding Zoey’s face, she said, “Let me look at you. You’ve lost weight! These years outside … must have suffered a lot …”
Zoey smiled and burst into tears, “Mom hasn’t changed a bit, she’s still as beautiful as ever.”
“Don’t think that mom won’t scold you if you say a few nice words! Let your father and brother come back later and teach you a good lesson together! If you don’t give us a clear reason, you’ll simply not want you as a daughter in the future!” Yami Hu lectured her daughter with a stern face and kept wiping her tears.
I was about to lead Zoey through the door when I noticed the little baby standing in the doorway with a curious look on his face. Oh my! What a pair of angel-like children.
“Zoey , these two are …”
Zoey turned and brought the two children in, “Here, babies, this is Grandma. Call someone.”
“Grandma.” The two children did not dare to be too reckless yet, and only called out sweetly.
That childish voice simply made Yami Hu’s heart flutter.
“Ouch. Good baby!” Yami Hu squatted down and took the two children into her arms with one hand, while over there she ordered in a loud voice towards Li Ma, “Li Ma, where are the candies you bought last time, take them all out to the children.”
The other side looked up at Zoey, “Whose baby is so beautiful? Let your brother have one too, I’m still hoping to have a grandchild!”
“Mom …,” Zoey looked at her mother’s favorite look and pursed her lips before saying. “These two kids are mine.”
“Huh? Oh.” Yami Hu nodded, comparing lips again, “Adopted outside?”
Zoey shook her head. “They … were born to me.”
Yami Hu was startled and looked at the two children from time to time in surprise. Oh my God! When you look closely, these two little cuties really do look a bit like their daughter!
“What the … hell is going on here?”
…
In the hall, Yami Hu sat for a long time, still not able to calmly digest the big news her daughter had just brought her. It was only after handing over the two adorable children to Li’s mom to take them to the back garden to play that she finally found her voice: “Then tell mom who the father of this pair of children is.”
Zoey sat across from Yami Hu and lowered her eyes before speaking softly, “Mom, that’s all in the past …”
“Isn’t it the boy who made you not even get married five years ago? Zoey , to this point, why don’t you let go?” Nowadays, Yami Hu is more helpless and uncomfortable with her daughter.
Zoey has always been a good kid who knows how to behave, so who would make her do something out of the ordinary again and again? This is really shocking!
Zoey’s heart shrank slightly at the mention of the incident five years ago. She was about to say something when there was a movement in the foyer. She looked up, and the figure that appeared in the doorway froze Zoey in her tracks. How could it be …
“Nabi? “Zoey stood up and looked at Nabi Yan who had entered the door skillfully with astonishment. She was still as dignified and beautiful as she used to be, smiling lightly with her eyes flowing in an endless variety of ways.
“And Nabi na? Now it’s time to call her sister-in-law.” Yami Hu corrected Zoey with a smile .
Sister-in-law? Did she get married to her brother? What about Jerry Xiao? He loves her like that …
Zoey was not yet shaken, Owen Baker has come in. When he saw his sister, his eyes were immediately fascinated, gazing at Zoey for a long time, and stepped forward to hug her slim body tightly into his arms.
“You’re glad you came back?” Owen Baker tightened his grip on Zoey’s head and spoke, his tone already choked.
Zoey couldn’t stop crying for a moment and buried her face deep into her brother’s arms. It’s been a long, long time since she smelled such a reassuring smell …
…
Late Night …
While the kids were asleep, Zoey couldn’t fall asleep, sitting up from bed with a heavy heart and leaning against the bed.
Jerry Xiao…
How is he doing without Nabi? That night five years ago, he called Nabi’s name with such deep obsession. Why has everything changed after five years?
“Zoey , are you asleep?” Outside the door, there was a knock on the room.
When Zoey heard her brother’s voice, she got up and pulled the door open. Seeing Zoey, Owen Baker smiled lightly, “Didn’t wake you up, did you?”
“I’m still awake too, and was just going out to get a glass of water.”
Owen Baker handed her the water in his hand, “Figured you’d be thirsty.”
Looking behind her twice, she asked in a low voice, “Are the children asleep?”
“Hmm. Tossing and turning all day, they couldn’t hold out.” Zoey turned back to the two children with a much gentler look.
Owen Baker looked at the two little kids sleeping together, and then sorrowfully dropped his eyes to Zoey and sighed, “I can’t imagine how you’ve gotten through these five years.”
Zoey just pulled her lips and smiled. In fact, no matter how much suffering there is, with these two children, she doesn’t feel any suffering. Especially KK and Nini are very understanding, rarely let her worry.
Owen Baker looked at his sister and hesitated before speaking, “Didn’t want to go over to the baby’s father?”
Zoey forced a smile, “Brother, let’s not talk about that. Let’s talk about you.”
“My business?” Owen Baker shrugged, his eyes cast out with a few dark moments, “What do I have to talk about?”
Zoey didn’t ignore the darkness in her brother’s eyes and asked softly, “How did you end up with Nabi? I’ve never heard you say before that you like Nabi.”
It is also clear that Jerry Xiao likes Nabi Yan, and that Nabi Yan is also in love with Jerry. what has happened in the past few years to make the situation like this?
Owen Baker smiled bitterly and did not look at Zoey, but spoke meaningfully: “Marriage is not something that you have to like each other to be together. Just like Nabi Yan, she doesn’t necessarily like me either.”
Zoey breathed out, “What kind of marriage is this? If you don’t like each other, why do you have to torment yourself like this?”
Owen Baker looked at his sister and wanted to say something. Zoey hesitated and asked, “You married Nabi, what about Jerry? Is he … okay?”
Zoey knew she shouldn’t ask about this person, but she couldn’t help it.
Obviously not expecting her sister to suddenly mention Jerry Xiao, surprised, then said: “Now no one knows where Jerry Xiao went. Five years ago, not long after you left, the Xiao Family was in turmoil. I heard that Chuck Xiao had gone abroad, and Xiao Dong and his wife were so depressed that they also went abroad to recuperate. As for Jerry Xiao, I thought he the Xiao Family he took over will have great development, but the fact is the opposite, he also rarely appeared. As you know, business competition is very strong, the Xiao Family fell in that year. It didn’t take long to declare bankruptcy, and Jerry Xiao was completely lost from then on.”
Zoey listened with a sense of alarm.
“How did this happen?” The Xiao Family is gone, the family is bankrupt, the one they love is married to another, and the proud man can’t afford such repeated blows?
He should have sad …
Zoey is unimaginable.
“Zoey , are you okay?” Owen Baker noticed that his sister looked a little off and reached out to help.
Zoey now snapped back to her senses, realizing that she was out of order. He only held a cup, sipped hot tea, and asked heavily, “Brother, why did Chuck suddenly leave? Is it … because of that wedding incident that hit him too hard?”
Owen Baker didn’t want to make it hard on Zoey, but had to nod, “He has a weird genetic condition and can’t stand the excitement …”
Zoey leaned helplessly against the door panel and lowered her head in guilt. If it weren’t for herself, the Xiao Family would still be as flamboyant now.
“Don’t think about it so much, you don’t want to.” Owen Baker pushed Zoey’s slim shoulder and changed the subject without moving, “I heard you’re in the main office at MY. Haven’t you thought about coming home to help out?”
Zoey laughed and shook her head, “Just a few more years to hone in on the outside. If I suddenly appear, the financial news must grab hold of me. By then …”
Zoey turned back and looked deeply at her two children, “I don’t want to involve my two children, they are still too young.”
The financial news must have made a big deal of digging up the children’s origins, and she was worried that her two sensitive children would be hurt.
Owen Baker also knew the magnitude of this and nodded, “Good.”
…
That night, Zoey tossed and turned, unable to sleep, her mind filled with the figure she thought had disappeared.
The next morning, Zoey left the kids at home and went to work. It had only been a day since she arrived, and the girls in the main office were already familiar with each other.
“Eh, have you heard? It is said that the head office boss is coming to China!” A few girls gathered around and whispered.
“Normal. Now we have to develop the Chinese market, and the boss has to come and catch the work.”
“Eh, Zoey , you’ve been in England for so many years, have you seen the big boss once? Must be very handsome. I heard it’s still a golden bachelor!” Everyone’s eyes have turned to Zoey, a pair of gossipy eyes, crystal bright.
Zoey looked up from the computer, looking at everyone’s eagerly awaited look, really can’t bear to hit them, but still had to say the truth, “I have not seen. However, I have previously heard colleagues say that the big boss is already 60 nearly 70.”
“What?! It’s an old man?!” Everyone’s white eyes rolled and they almost fell down.
“What the heck. Who the hell said he was handsome! Make us look forward to it for nothing.”
“There is still time to chat, get together and do not have to work? Kevin Lin’s sharp eyes swept across the room and stopped at Zoey’s body, “Zoey, the president’s flight will be here tomorrow at 9 a. m., you and Xiaomu go together to pick up the plane, and do a good job of reception. ”
“But I’ve never met the president.”
Kevin Lin tossed the object in his hand to Zoey , “Hold this sign up and someone will naturally come over.”
