Both KK and Nini hung their heads, looking as if they had done something wrong.
“What did you do this morning?”
Zoey knows what to ask.
Looked at KK and then at Nini. Nini blinked wide eyed before saying, “We went together to find Uncle.”
“Oh, so that’s it …” Zoey deliberately stretched her voice, “What’s looking for Uncle?”
“Of course we are looking for Uncle to be our daddy! Bad man big fat man, always …” Nini mouth fast, a slip of words, immediately to get out.
“Nini froze for a moment and pouted a little aggressively.
“What the hell is going on?” Zoey looked at them.
Nini’s little mouth cooed and seemed to make up her mind a moment later, before ignoring KK’s gesture and giving an honest account. “Little fatty always bullies me and KK, saying that we are a wild child that no daddy wants!
The two words ‘wild seed’ immediately stung Zoey’s demeanor.
Bowing their heads, the two children also felt equally uncomfortable. Even though they are still so young, they already know that the word ‘wild seed’ is not pleasing.
Zoey pursed her lips, Nini shouted in anger and annoyance, “KK and I are not unwanted! Uncle said, Uncle is willing to be KK’s and my daddy! Little fatty will never dare to bully us again!”
The tip of the nose is sore, looking at the two children and aggrieved, and gloomy look, Zoey heart is extremely unpleasant.
Fortunately, he is there …
“You guys, you really like Uncle so much?”
“Well, it’s very much like that!” Both children, collectively, nodded their heads.
Zoey smiled slightly, blood relatives, is a very strange thing.
Perhaps she should really find a chance to talk to him about the children, but how should she talk about such things? And where to start?
…
The following day.
Zoey was still asleep when she was woken up by a computer. She touched her cell phone from the bed, saw the familiar number, and her heart, still unconsciously, skipped a beat.
It’s only 7 o’clock, why did he suddenly call himself?
“Hello.” His voice was still lazy, as if he had not yet awakened from his dream, with a lazy sensuality.
“Hmm? Why so early?” Zoey sat up, hugging the covers, dropping her eyes to the two children in her arms, listening to his voice on the other end and smiling softly.
Suddenly feel …
If life could go on like this, it would be incredibly beautiful.
“The medicine has already been cooked and sent over, come and drink it while it’s hot.” He didn’t care how Zoey answered, so he already hung up the phone.
Listening to the dry ‘beep’ on the other side, Zoey shook her head. He was simply doing a pass-through!
In fact, she can take the medicine back and boil it herself. Why do you have to go to his place to drink it? However, it would be nice to be woken up by his phone call every morning and listen to his voice.
“It’s early in the morning and you’re giggling!” KK opened her eyes in a daze and couldn’t help but spit.
“Zoey must be in love!” Nini woke up too, and the Grinch interjected.
Zoey pinched her nose, “You’re a big boy!”
“Is it Uncle or Uncle Lian?” KK continued to ask.
“Both uncles are good!” Nini smiled cheekily and rubbed her little head in Zoey’s arms, “Nini doesn’t mind both of them being Nini’s daddy!”
KK rolled her eyes and snorted at her.
Zoey was in tears and pushed the two children, “Stop it, get up, it’s time for class!”
…
After dropping off both kids at school, Zoey went to Jerry Xiao’s.
Sitting in the car, watching the scenery outside the window flash by, the early morning air, fresh and incredible. Suddenly feel that the rest of these times, more happy. When she was abroad before, she always worked non-stop, not daring to slow down even for a minute, afraid to slow down a little, the two children’s lives will be bad.
However, now it can finally settle down a bit and the pace can be slower.
She hooked her lips and smiled softly.
When I got out of the car and arrived at his house, the door was closed. Looked at the time, it was only 8 o’clock, he should not have gone to the office so soon.
I rang the doorbell and waited for a while before I heard a movement inside the door.
The door opened and Jerry Xiao was standing inside the door. Compared to his usual work attire, he just woke up, wearing only a very simple home pullover and a pair of shorts that reach his knees, revealing his firm calves …
The neckline of the blouse is open extremely low, and the sexy chest is hidden.
Zoey was embarrassed to stare at him and just said, “It’s cool, you don’t want to catch a cold.”
Jerry Xiao looked down at what he was wearing and then down at what she was carrying in her hands, his lower jaw comparing, “What’s being carried?”
“Brought breakfast from home.” Zoey sidled in and could already smell the faint smell of Chinese medicine. For the first time, it felt like the medicine, too, seemed to carry a wisp of fragrance.
Zoey set the breakfast on the table and glanced at him, “Go wash up first, then come over and eat.”
He looked up and looked at the time again and reminded, “Mr. Xiao, it’s time to hurry up, there’s only half an hour left before the time to go to work.”
Jerry Xiao lifted his lips and walked upstairs while turning back to talk to her, “You really have a talent for being a secretary, I kind of regret quitting you.”
Zoey edged out the dishes from the kitchen and set up the exquisite breakfast, hearing his words, she smiled down, “You might consider overpaying to hire me back again. I might say yes too.”
Jerry Xiao paused in his steps and turned around, looking at her from above.
In the early morning, she was not dressed as OL as usual for work, just simple pants and T-shirt, fluffy curly hair tied sharply at the back of her head, looking more youthful. The look of wandering around the restaurant is very beautiful and gentle.
The light smile, faint, more like a silk cotton wool linger in his heart, let his heart tip jump slightly.
“I would consider hiring you as a housekeeper at a high salary, and you do a good job.”
This family, lacking a woman, seems to have been a long, long time.
At one time, he thought that in the future to wash his hands to make soup, for him to dry clothes and fold the quilt will definitely be Nabi Yan, but I do not know when to start, he realized that the figure has long disappeared in his mind …
In its place, …
Now, the figure standing right in front of him.
This had never really occurred to him as a possibility before. Before returning home, Zoey Baker was nothing more than his enemy, and without Chuck, in this life, she and himself would have been nothing more than strangers who knew each other’s names.
Thinking of Chuck Xiao, his godly thoughts gave a slight pause and his eyes tightened. Dropping his head, he saw her raise her small face and smile gently and lightly, “You really need a housekeeping, you can’t eat out for a long time. Those things outside, very unhealthy.”
That smile, gently swung his heart.
The momentary gloom just now was instantly cleared away. He is more than satisfied with his current situation, so, for the time being, he refuses to think about those old things anymore.
“Are you interested?” Jerry Xiao seemed to mean it, standing upstairs, ringing his chest and waiting for her answer.
She froze for a moment, and the movement that was pouring herbal medicine paused for a moment. Looking at him, he seemed to be serious.
She narrowed her eyes and looked at him. He continued to speak, “Don’t need you to do much, just …”
He thought for a moment, “Cook for me and occasionally do some odd chores, the monthly salary can be higher than what Sea Gu offers you.”
Zoey was instantly amused and teased him, “Ingram is offering 15, 000 to hire me as a secretary. I wouldn’t have come without 20, 000 if I had been a housekeeper.”
“Twenty thousand is twenty thousand.” He did not hesitate in the slightest and agreed readily. Looking at her for a second, he immediately exercised his authority, “Go upstairs after drinking your medicine, there are a few shirts that need to be ironed. Also, by the way, help me match the color of my tie today. The first thing you need to do is to give me a set of rigorous but not lacking in style dress. Furthermore …”
“Hey!” Zoey interrupted him downstairs, and although the words were a protest, there was a gentle smile mixed with a sweetness too thick to melt, “Mr. Xiao, this occasional trivial thing of yours, isn’t it too occasional?”
“I’m not done yet.” He raised his eyebrows in a disbelieving manner. Looking away from her, he propped his hand on the escalator, “Yesterday’s bento, it tasted great, so you better be able to make it for me every day from now on. Of course, it’s best to have it delivered to the office.”
Every day at noon, to have a her to eat with, should make him feel appetite.
Zoey’s head was full of black lines. She hadn’t even agreed to join yet, and he couldn’t wait to oppress her!
“Should I apply for a raise?”
“Do it right.” He has always been a generous boss.
Zoey laughed and urged him, “Hurry up and get washed up, breakfast is getting cold.”
“So you’re saying yes?” Under his eyes, there were faint ripples of laughter.
“I can earn 20, 000 a month, of course I do.” To be able to see him every day, to do these things for him, is considered a very happy, very happy thing … her, there is no reason to refuse. Also, can not refuse!
Hearing her answer, he then went back to his room with a sense of satisfaction. While washing up, she happened to come up and stood in the doorway of the washroom, asking him, “Do you really want to pick out your clothes?”
“Hmm.” He slurred his response with his toothbrush in his mouth.
In fact, the clothes he had to wear every day were prepared for him by his mother’s hands a few years ago. Later, when his mother’s health deteriorated and she couldn’t be with him, he got used to picking out his own clothes.
Just …
Going forward, it would be nice to be able to take that and leave it to another woman.
He brushed his teeth and gave Zoey another sideways glance. The eyes, slightly deep.
…
Zoey turned around and went into the dressing room off to the side. His dressing room was twice as big as the one she had at home, with a dazzling array of clothes, pants, watches, and a shoe closet full of all kinds of things.
I admire him! Faced with this room of clothes, won’t you be late to leave home in the morning?
Jerry Xiao dropped his toothbrush and stood in the doorway, just to see her slender back drowned in a sea of those clothes. Her small white hands gently crossed the rows of shelves, and then, quickly and decisively, she picked out shirts, ties and pants.
All of them are the colors and styles he used to like.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the small face that was so serious no matter what he was doing that he couldn’t help but be lost in thought.
Yesterday, this woman actually had the courage to confess her love for him, and because of that confession, it made him almost sleepless all night.
It was hard to wait until the clinic sent the Chinese medicine, the heart that had been floating all night, was finally able to settle down. After pretending to be frank as hell and calling her to come over, this hour was a little hard for him to get through.
More even …
He actually ran to the window to look at her twice like a brat who had just fallen in love.
Such a performance is so ridiculous that even you can’t help but look down on yourself!
