Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 552
Chapter 552 Extra Meng Zi He (V)
Chen Hua never dreamed that Meng Zi He would come back looking like this. He stared at her belly, his face full of consternation.
“Zihe, you …”
“Surprised?” Meng Zi He smiled sweetly, “Almost three months.”
Chen Hua couldn’t believe her eyes, and even more so, she couldn’t believe her ears. Meng Zi He was actually three months pregnant, and he didn’t even see it at all, and was still foolish enough to confess to her!
Chen Hua was instantly furious, his eyes seemed to be about to burst into flames, any man can’t stand the fact that his girlfriend is pregnant with someone else’s child, right?
He gritted his teeth, “Meng Zi He, what do you mean? Teasing me? Playing with me?”
Meng Zi He had a calm face, she knew that Chen Hua would react this way, it was more than normal for a man to react this way.
“If you’re going to argue, let’s go outside and leave the others alone.”
Chen Hua grabbed her hand and dragged her into the small warehouse inside, this is Xu Xia’s private territory, usually do not allow people to come in, but Chen Hua could not care less, he is a man who wants to save face, does not like his privacy naked and exposed to the public.
Entering the door, he threw Meng Zi He hard, “Tell me clearly, what’s going on here?”
“Isn’t it obvious? I’m having a baby.”
“Why didn’t you tell me? Why did you lie to me?”
“It’s a private matter I don’t have to tell anyone,” said Menzies Ho, “Besides, I thought you should be able to see that.”
“Such a big deal, and you actually didn’t feel the need to tell me?” Chen Hua was furious, “What do you take me for? Playing tricks on me for fun?”
Meng Zi He looked at him with bright eyes, “If I tell you that I’m pregnant, will you still like me?”
Chen Hua choked there for a moment, unable to answer.
It is not that he can not answer, Chen Hua knows that he will not, he will not be so stupid, if he knows that she is pregnant with someone else’s child, he will not even move that kind of thought.
“I thought you said you only cared about me now? Didn’t you say you couldn’t live without me?” Meng Zi He said word for word, “Just having an extra child makes any difference? I didn’t cheat on you, and I haven’t done anything wrong to you since I’ve been with you, and your look of wanting to eat people has already shown your attitude, Chen Hua, you can live without me, and you will live very well, so let’s break up.”
Chen Hua stood dumbfounded, watching that tantalizing mouth open and close, he had always longed to be able to kiss her, but now he knew that everything was over. He really liked her, never liked another woman as much as he liked her, but even so, he couldn’t marry a woman who was pregnant with someone else’s child!
Half a dozen times, he heard his own bitter, astringent voice, “This child, you intend to …”
“Of course I’m going to have him, he’s my child and mine alone.”
Chen Hua closed his eyes, he knew that Meng Zi He would do this. In her heart, the child was more important than him.
“Does the baby’s father … know?”
“Knowing that,” said Menzies Ho faintly, “he is dead.”
Chen Hua snapped his eyes up, he instantly understood, no wonder Meng Zi He always seemed to have a faint sadness on her face, so this was the root cause. He had guessed all sorts of things: she might have broken up with her boyfriend and been traumatized. Or she may have interfered with a married man’s family, or she may be the lover of a rich man. He liked her that way, thinking that no matter which situation, can be ignored, but I did not expect it to be like this!
Even if he didn’t care about the child, how was he going to argue with a dead man? How is he going to win?
Chen Hua despaired and silently turned around and walked out.
Xu Xia followed and came in, looking at Meng Zi He with concern, “Are you alright?”
Meng Zi He slowly shook his head, “It’s fine, when I came, I knew it would be like this.”
Xu Xia was silent for a moment and asked, “Want some cake? There are new flavors.”
Meng Zi He smiled, “Good.”
Xu Xia said, “If you don’t want to go out right now, you can eat here.”
Meng Zi He then surveyed the surrounding, in fact, only half of this room as a warehouse, stacked a pile of coffee beans and so on, there is a faint fragrance, the other half has been converted into a collapsed rice, yellowish small table on it, there are very comfortable cushions and pillows, the most unexpected is that there is a window, open the white curtains, the sunlight rushes in at once, full of light, outside the window is a lake, a gentle wind Outside the window was a lake, and the breeze made the waves sparkling and dazzling like broken gold.
Meng Zi He was a little surprised that the back of the street was the park, and the café was right next to the swimming lake in the park.
She smiled and said, “You’ve got a nice place here, like a little paradise.”
“I like to stay here, it’s quiet.” Xu Xia set up the soft cushions and cushions and told Meng Zi He to sit down, “I’ll get the cake.”
Meng Zi He saw a stack of books piled up on the small table, she flipped through them with her hands in faith, except for a martial arts novel and a geography magazine, the rest of them were recipes for making western-style pastries. Among them were the ones she had eaten, and Meng Zi He smiled slightly, knowing that the new flavors of cakes Xu Xia was talking about should also come from these books.
Served up with the cake was a glass of kiwi juice, a lime green color that complemented the slightly yellow cake on the side. A white ginger flower was placed in a small vase, the light aroma was heavy in the surroundings.
Meng Zi He raised an eyebrow and smiled sweetly, “You’re so thoughtful.”
Xu Xia smiled, “It’s good that you like it.”
Seeing that Xu Xia looked like she was about to leave, Meng Zi He said, “If you’re fine, stay with me for a while.”
Xu Xia obediently sat down, for a moment but did not know where to start chatting, silent for a moment, said, “Chen Hua is gone.”
“We broke up.” Meng Zi He smiled bitterly, for this short relationship, she actually wasn’t just playing around like Chen Hua said.
If you can’t get the one you love, then it’s good to have someone to love you, right? Although it was unfair to Chen Hua, she wanted to try being loved. Another consideration was that the child needed a father, even if only in name, at least when he was born, the father’s column was not vacant.
But she doesn’t force it, it’s supposed to be an unequal treaty, it has to be a man who loves her very, very much, so much that he doesn’t care about anything. When she saw her name tattooed on Chen Hua’s shoulder, she thought she had found the one, but it turned out she was wrong, Chen Hua didn’t love her as much as she thought he did.
She looked at Xu Xia, so what about him? Even Chen Hua had said that Xu Xia liked her, but he had never confessed to her.
She asked Hsu Hsia, “You didn’t seem surprised when you saw me for the first time.”
“I guessed a little when I used to see how much you ate and yet you weren’t fat.”
“So, you made the cakes less sugary and less creamy and started serving juice?”
“Pregnant women should eat healthier.”
“Thank you.”
“As you like.”
Meng Zi He drank half a glass of juice and smacked his lips, “Knowing that I have a child, do you still like me?”
“My liking you has nothing to do with the child.” Xu Xia looked at her calmly, “He’s your child, and I would like him too.”
Meng Zi He looked at him for a moment and slowly shook his head, “You’re not the one I want.”
“I know, you said that.” Hsu Hsia’s eyes twinkled, “I just wanted to care about you.”
Menzies Ho said, “Be friends.”
Xu Xia raised an eyebrow, “We’ve always been friends, haven’t we?”
“Yeah,” Menzies He smiled slightly, “always been friends.”
There was a knock on the door, and it was Ren Dandan’s voice, “Xu Xia, the guest asked if we’re still singing today.”
Xu Xia was a bit hesitant, and Meng Zi He said, “Sing it, I haven’t listened to it in a long time.”
“Sing,” Xu Xia said to Ren Dandan with a raised voice, “I’ll sing when I come out.”
Ren Dandan let out an oh-so-quiet sigh and beamed back to the counter.
Jiang Kaisheng loved to tease the little girl and reached out to pinch her mouth, “Let me measure it, how many oil jugs can I hang?”
Ren Dandan tilted her head to avoid it, and sighed mournfully, “I really don’t know what Xu Xia is thinking. No matter how pretty Meng Zi He is, she’s still an unwed mother, why would he want to get into that mess?”
Jiang Kaisheng echoed, “Yes, Chen has withdrawn, but he’s catching up, is he stupid? By the way, is he going to sing? A few more people are asking.”
“Say it and sing it,” Ren Dandan replied in a nonchalant manner, “Who knows when he’ll come out?”
As a result, just as the words fell, Xu Xia appeared by the door, scaring her so much that she spat out her tongue and hurriedly set up the high stool he was singing on.
As soon as they saw the stools being set up, everyone knew that Xu Xia was going to sing, and they all stopped what they were doing and waited quietly. It had been too long since they had heard such a pure and warm voice, and everyone missed it very much.
The room is silent, all eyes are watching the man sitting on the high stool, the light shines from behind, the blue shirt is pale and white, he drops his eyes, vaguely see under the thick black eyelashes flickering glitter, the hair on his forehead covers half of his face, the light and shadow, from a distance, as if sitting on the stage under the chasing lights.
Only he was in the light, all was hidden in the shadows, and for the moment, he was radiant!
Xu Xia raised her head, her gaze gently skimming over the familiar corner where the familiar figure sat.
He smiled slightly and lowered his head again, his fingers running across the strings, bringing out a string of melodious notes.
You’ll always be home in my heart
You’ve always waited for me alone and in silence
Every cold night on the road to a foreign land
The thought of it hurts me like a knife.
I always see your helpless eyes in my dreams.
My heart has been awakened once again
I’m standing here remembering how I left you.
You’re standing alone in the middle of the crowd.
That’s your broken heart.
But my heart is so wild
I always see your helpless eyes in my dreams.
My heart has been awakened once again
I always see myself walking home in my dreams.
You’re standing in the sunset with a beautiful face.
That’s your dress flying.
That’s you being gentle.
…
No one spoke, everyone sat or stood, quietly listening, letting the pure sound wash their dusty souls.
