the seventh bride

Chapter 125
Nangong Chen was stunned for a moment, quickly grabbed her body, and helped her from the ground to the bed.

Bai Ying'an fell asleep, Nan Gongchen put her on the bed and stood by the bed watching her.

At this time, Bai Ying'an's hair was disheveled, her clothes were disheveled, her face was covered with tears, and her eye sockets were swollen to frightening extent, as embarrassing as she could be.In the end, Nangong Chen just took a light breath, turned around and walked to the sofa to sit down.

******
Early in the morning, Bai Muqing heard a knock on the door.

Before she put down the bowls and chopsticks to open the door, Xiaoyi had already trotted away, still muttering happily: "My brother-in-law must be here!"

Xiaoyi happily opened the door, and it was not Lin Annan but Su Xi who appeared in front of him, but Xiaoyi still happily called out: "Sister Su Xi."

"Xiaoyi, long time no see, is your sister there?" Su Ximai walked in and walked straight into the room.

"I'm here." Bai Muqing came out of the kitchen, looked at Su Xi with a smile and said, "Why are you here today when you have time? Could it be that you have good news for me?"

Su Xi walked towards her, took her hand and walked to the bedroom.

Bai Muqing was taken aback by the slightly dignified expression on her face, and gradually began to feel a little uneasy in her heart. If it was good news, why would Su Xi have such an expression?
"What's the matter? Don't scare me." After she sat down on the sofa, she stared at Su Xi and said.

Su Xi looked at her, and said after a while, "I heard Qiao Siheng call today saying that the baby boy that Bai Ying'an carried back died."

Bai Muqing's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively asked, "How is it possible?"

"I heard clearly that he passed away yesterday afternoon and was cremated today at the funeral home." Su Xi looked at her: "What? Didn't the Bai family tell you about this?"

Bai Muqing shook her head, eyes staring at her gradually dimmed, then quickly grabbed Su Xi's palm and anxiously said: "Xu Yarong didn't tell me, you must have heard it wrong, right? You must have heard it wrong! Su Xi , don't scare me...you know I'm afraid of this kind of thing, you know...!"

At this point, she was already crying with anxiety.

Su Xi sighed helplessly, stared at her and said, "Actually, I have been debating whether or not to tell you this matter just now, because I was afraid that you would be as excited and sad as you are now."

She thought about not telling Bai Muqing, but if she didn't tell, someone would tell her sooner or later, so she decided to tell her herself.

"Tell me quickly! This must not be true!" Bai Muqing shook her arm.

"Mu Qing, calm down first." Su Xi grabbed her palm tightly: "I was next to the machine when you were doing the checkup, and I clearly saw that your baby is a healthy baby girl, although I didn't know Who exactly replaced your child, but I believe that the child in Nangong's family is definitely not yours."

"But Young Master Qiao said that no one can replace the child." Bai Muqing shook her head.

"Listen to me, I asked my mother-in-law to check it for me. The day before your baby was born, a mother gave birth to a boy with congenital heart disease. The mother didn't want the baby and ran away secretly. I guess the baby that Bai Ying'an carried back to Nangong's house must have been discarded by this pregnant woman in the hospital."

"So... my child must have been replaced?" Bai Muqing shouted excitedly, "But who is this bastard? Why didn't he return the child to me?"

Recently, because of looking for children, Bai Muqing came across countless cases of baby trafficking on the Internet. Among them, the obstetrician and gynecologist in the hospital colluded with outsiders to steal the mother's baby, and finally pretended that the baby died.

She was worried that her daughter was taken away by the obstetrician for this purpose. After taking her daughter away, she gave her back an abandoned baby that no one wanted.

"I'm sorry, Mu Qing." Su Xizhan said guiltily, "I originally planned to cut some hair to help you do a paternity test during the child's [-]-day banquet, but I didn't expect the child to leave before the [-]-day feast."

"Is it really impossible to find out who replaced the child? Young Master Qiao also can't find out?" Bai Muqing still couldn't believe it. Young Master Qiao is the owner of Xingxing Hospital, how could he not even find out this?

Su Xi shook her head: "He said he has been checking, but he couldn't find out."

After a pause, Su Xi continued: "Mu Qing, no matter what, as long as you believe that your child is still alive, there will be a chance to find her, understand?"

Bai Muqing nodded, what else could she do besides believe?
After a long silence between each other, Bai Muqing suddenly said softly: "Speaking of that abandoned baby, it's actually quite pitiful."

"Not necessarily." Su Xi shook her head: "If he hadn't been transferred to Nangong's house, he would have been sent to the orphanage by the hospital, and you know the conditions of the orphanage. It is estimated that the child will not survive for three days."

"I mean..." Bai Muqing stared at her, and said, "I suspect that Bai Yingan killed the child himself."

"No way? Is she so courageous?"

"For their own fame and fortune, there is nothing their mother and daughter can't do." Bai Muqing said bitterly.

At the beginning, she didn't believe that Bai Ying'an would treat her child well, but after hearing the dialogue between Bai Ying'an and He Ling on the day of delivery, she became even more convinced that Bai Ying'an was such a person.

"So, I think that child is quite pitiful, and he died in place of my child." Bai Muqing raised her eyes, stared at Su Xi and said, "But don't tell Master Qiao about this, lest he spread it to Nangong Chen In the ears, Nangong Chen will die of grief."

Nangong Chen would be sad if his own child was killed by his wife, she thought.

Su Xi glanced at her speechlessly: "Look, after so long, you still care about him."

"I...I just sympathize with him, I think he won't be able to take this blow." Bai Muqing argued.

Although it was just an abandoned baby, a sick child who was destined not to survive, and had nothing to do with her, but hearing that he died, Bai Muqing still felt very distressed.

She has always liked children, but what she fears most is hearing about children being hurt.

"Okay, don't worry, he can allow you to give birth to this child, he should have been mentally prepared early in the morning." Su Xi patted the back of her hand: "It's you, you are about to get married, so don't worry about it." I am so sad about these things. Now that you have decided to marry, then marry well and prepare for the wedding. I will help you find the child, and you will find it sooner or later."

"Thank you." Bai Muqing said to her gratefully.

Su Xi shook her head: "I just try my best, but my ability is still very limited."

"I understand." Bai Muqing nodded.

Of course she knew that Su Xi was not a saint. In fact, she couldn't help much without Qiao Shao's help, and her relationship with Qiao Shao was so sensitive.

******
After returning from the funeral parlor, Nan Gongchen walked into the living room and saw the old lady sitting on the sofa in the living room, so she walked to the sofa opposite her and sat down.

Seeing the sadness on the old lady's face, he lowered his head and said with apologetic expression, "Grandma, I'm sorry."

The old lady raised her eyes and looked back at Nangong Chen. Although she felt reproaches and complaints in her heart, she could tell that Nangong Chen was more sad and painful than her.

She couldn't bear to say any more reproaches, and finally she just said softly: "Is everything done?"

"It's over." Nangong Chen nodded.

The old lady gave an 'hmm' and said to him: "Since it's over, go back to your room and have a good rest, lest you get tired and get sick again."

Nan Gongchen didn't expect that the old lady didn't even have a word of reproach, but looked at her in surprise: "Grandma, don't you blame me?"

The old lady smiled wryly: "What's the use of being strange? The child can't come back alive, don't think about it so much, go back and rest."

Nangong Chen felt relieved a little, and nodded: "Then I'll go up first, and grandma herself will be fine."

After standing up from the sofa, Nangong Chen walked upstairs. When he came to Bai Ying'an's bedroom, he hesitated for a while and finally didn't go in, but went back to his own bedroom.

Inside the house, Bai Ying'an's high-hanging heart sank to the ground because the door was closed.

Just hearing the sound of Nangong Chen's car, she immediately got up from the bed and ran to the back of the floor-to-ceiling windows and raised the corner of the curtain to look out. She saw him enter the room with her own eyes, so she ran back to the bed and lay down again.

She thought Nangong Chen would come in to talk to her about the child, or come in to see her, but he didn't, he went directly into his own bedroom.

Is he really not going to forgive her?Did she mess things up?
After standing behind the door and hesitating for a long time, she opened the door and walked to the door of Nangong Chen's bedroom, raised her hand, knocked behind his door, pushed the door and walked in.

Nangong Chen was changing clothes, seeing her coming in and looking at her who was still haggard, he felt a faint pity in his heart, looked at her and asked, "Why didn't you take a break?"

"I can't sleep." Bai Ying'an stared at him with tears in his eyes and asked, "Have the child's affairs been settled?"

"It's done, don't worry." Nan Gongchen buttoned the last button, walked up to her, and raised his hand to stroke her hair: "Even if the child's matter is over here, don't worry too much about it." Sad, take good care of your body."

Listening to his words, Bai Ying'an was so excited that she shed tears.

He still cared about her, so does that mean he has forgiven her?
"I will. Don't be sad, okay?" Bai Ying'an leaned over and hugged him: "We are still young, and there is still a chance to have a baby in the future. Next time, I will definitely give birth to a healthy baby for you."

"Well, I will." Nangong Chen raised his hand and patted her shoulder, and whispered softly in her ear: "Okay, you go to rest, I want to sleep."

"Okay." Bai Ying'an let go of him, and also said in a gentle voice: "Then you have a good rest, I won't disturb you anymore."

After returning to his bedroom, Bai Ying'an secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and his heart, which had been restless all morning, finally settled down.

She cried so much these two days that she was almost numb, and finally the matter came to an end, and she could finally have a good sleep.

Bai Ying'an who was lying on the bed fell asleep almost instantly, sleeping peacefully and sweetly, even Nangong Chen didn't feel it when he drove out of the house.

Nangong Chen originally planned to have a good sleep, but it took two days to close his eyes after lying on the bed, and there was also the scene of Bai Ying'an smothering the child to death.

Before this incident happened, he could feel that Bai Ying'an had changed after giving birth, but the changes were only in small details.He was completely shocked until he found out that she had smothered his own son to death. How can a person's transformation be so big so quickly?

Even for the sake of the children, a woman as kind as she is who likes children shouldn't be able to let her go. The Bai Ying'an in front of him made him feel strange.

In fact, he didn't know where he was going at this time, but the feeling of being at home was too depressing, the child's departure, Ying'an's change, all these depressing made him uncomfortable, but luckily he came out.

******
Before getting off work in the afternoon, a nurse handed over an appraisal report to Pu Lianyao and said, "Doctor Park, this is the appraisal report of your friend."

Pu Lianyao, who had been in a bad mood all day, glanced at the report, and immediately roared angrily: "What's the use of bringing it to me now?"

The child is ashes, what else does she need this report for?What if a problem is found?Who will believe her?Perhaps the old lady and the eldest young master would not believe it, and would even think that she was telling stories and humiliating the heirs of the Nangong family!

The little nurse was taken aback by her yelling, although she was very annoyed that this was Pu Lianyao's private matter, but since she was Shen Ke's fiancee, she had to carefully explain: "Doctor Park, you just sent the hair samples over yesterday, The report will come out this afternoon, which is already very fast."

Most people need at least three days, okay?If it wasn't for her identity as Pu Lianyao, who would help her in such a hurry?
Pu Lianyao felt her gaffe, and hurriedly said to her: "I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood today, I didn't mean to get angry at you."

She took a deep breath, picked up the identification report on the desktop and turned to the last page.

Although she had suspected the relationship between Bai Ying'an and this child for a long time, she was still a little shocked when she saw that there was no blood relationship in the appraisal result.

The child does not belong to Bai Ying'an at all, so why did she bring this child back?Where was that child before?Could it be that he died so he randomly found a child to replace him?Just to explain to the Nangong family?

The bold woman dared to tamper with the blood of the Nangong family, she was really impatient.

She shook her head, put the identification result into her bag and walked towards the office door.

******
After Su Xi left, Bai Muqing couldn't help but start to think wildly again. She always felt that the child who died at Nangong's house seemed to be hers, not the abandoned baby that Su Xi said was destined not to survive.

Probably because she was too afraid that something would happen to her child, so no matter how Su Xi ensured that the child was not hers, she couldn't really rest assured.

Since the afternoon, she has been watching her sitting on the balcony without eating, drinking, or talking, and she didn't even eat much for dinner, so Zhu Hui had no choice but to go over and stare at her and said, "Mu Qing, what's the matter with you? Is it okay to ask you to talk to your mother?" Ken, mom can help you analyze it."

"Mom, I'm fine." Bai Muqing shook her head and said.

"It's okay, why do you stay here all day without eating or drinking? Did you quarrel with Annan?"

"I don't eat or drink. I didn't quarrel with Annan."

"If you're tired, hurry up and go to sleep in the house. After you sleep, you'll have nothing to worry about." Zhu Hui looked her up and said, "How about I call and ask Annan to come over and accompany you and go out with you?" one time."

"No, no need." Bai Muqing hurriedly stopped her: "Annan has to go to work tomorrow, so don't bother him."

She doesn't want to see Lin Annan now, and meeting Lin Annan in this state of mind will only make Lin Annan unhappy, and besides, she and Lin Annan have long since lost the feeling of being able to sit together and talk heart to heart.

She sighed helplessly, and said to Zhu Hui: "Mom, I want to sit down for a while, you go to bed first."

"Then I don't care about you." Zhu Hui shook her head helplessly, and walked into the house.

Zhu Hui returned to the bedroom and saw Xiaoyi lying on the bed reading manga, so she patted his buttocks prone and said, "Xiaoyi, your sister is in a bad mood, go and tease her."

"My sister said that women have psychopaths for a few days every month, so let me ignore her." Xiaoyi said without raising her head.He found out that something was wrong with Bai Muqing early in the morning, and teased her early in the morning, but Bai Muqing kicked her out.

Zhu Hui picked up a few books from his small bookshelf and threw them to him: "She hasn't taught you how to read or sing today, go and let her teach you."

"Oh." Xiaoyi picked up the book on the table and walked to the balcony, then sat beside Bai Muqing, shaking her arm and said: "Sister, you haven't taught me to read, nor have you told me stories. "

Bai Muqing took a deep breath and said, "It's too late today, sister will teach you tomorrow, okay?"

"Hey, go to bed early."

"But it doesn't matter if people don't listen to your story."

"What do you want to hear?"

"Just pick it." Xiaoyi handed her the storybook in her hand.

Bai Muqing took the storybook and flipped through it, and finally stopped at the page of Cinderella, and said, "Then sister, can I tell you about Cinderella?"

"Mom said that little girls like to listen to Cinderella and Snow White." Xiaoyi said.

"But everything else is rotten."

Xiaoyi thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay then, let's talk about Cinderella." Anyway, as long as my sister is happy. "

Bai Muqing didn't need to use a storybook to tell the story of Cinderella, she put her arms around Xiaoyi's shoulders and let him lean on her body, while she was telling the story, she looked at the stars outside.

It was late at night, and the outside world was still so prosperous, like a magnificent little kingdom in a fairy tale.

"Sister, why didn't Cinderella run to find the prince herself?" Xiaoyi asked curiously.

"Because she was locked up by the stepmother."

"That stepmother is good or bad, are all stepmothers this bad?"

"Of course not, there are still many good people in the world."

"Sister, doesn't it hurt that sister cut off her toe?"

"It hurts."

"Then why does she still cut it?"

"Because she wants to wear the crystal slipper and live a happy life instead of Cinderella and the prince."

"How can she be so bad!" Xiaoyi gritted her teeth.

"However, bad guys usually don't end well. Not only did she not put on the crystal slipper, but she also cut off her toes, which is considered a price, so we can't be like her and be a bad guy. We have to be a good guy, you know? ?" Bai Muqing touched the top of Xiaoyi's head.

Xiaoyi nodded: "Understood, when I grow up, I want to be a kind and good person like Cinderella."

"Awesome!" Bai Muqing praised with satisfaction.

On the other side of the wall, Nangong Chen, who was a bit drunk, was drinking the can of beer in his hand while listening to the conversation between the siblings, the corners of his lips were unconsciously drawn up, and a sneer overflowed.

The story of Cinderella and the prince is just to deceive children.

He unconsciously thought of the Cinderella who disappeared in his life. He once thought she was as kind and beautiful as Cinderella, but it turned out to be just a dream.

Xiaoyi's voice came from the other side of the wall: "Sister, please sing me a song."

"What do you want to hear?" Bai Muqing asked.

"Just sing what makes you happy."

"Then... let's sing "Happy Holidays", shall we?"

"Okay."

"But it's late now, let's sing softly." After Bai Muqing finished speaking, she began to sing softly while clapping her hands.

The siblings sang line by line, and Xiaoyi's method was really effective, and Bai Muqing's mood gradually improved.

The siblings sang happily, and Nangong Chen who was next door also listened...not happy, but at least the layer of haze on the tip of my heart was gradually blown away by the singing of the siblings.

After singing for a while, Xiaoyi turned to look at Bai Muqing and said, "Sister, are you in a better mood?"

"It's much better, thank you Xiaoyi." Bai Muqing stroked the top of Xiaoyi's head: "Go, go back to sleep."

"What about you, sister?"

"I'll go in after sitting down for a while, dear."

"You have to come in and sleep there." Xiaoyi said.

Seeing Bai Muqing nodding, Xiaoyi took his book and went back to the house with peace of mind.

Bai Muqing sat on the balcony for a while, finally stood up from the ground and was about to go back to sleep, but suddenly there was a sound of a wine bottle falling from the next door.

She froze for a moment, is there anyone next door?
She had been sitting here for a whole day, and she didn't hear any movement from the opposite side, nor saw any lights, and as far as she knew, Nangong Chen didn't come back to live here after leaving here that morning.

In fact, Nangong Chen seldom came back here, not even once or twice a month before.

But out of curiosity, she still leaned over and looked over there. Although the lights on the balcony next door were not turned on, she could still see Nangong Chen who was trying to prop up his body and prepare to go back to the house at a glance, as well as the whole floor. wine bottle.

She was slightly surprised that it was really Nangong Chen!Why is he here?Since when have you been here?
Seeing that he drank so much wine by himself, he must be feeling uncomfortable to drink like this. Is it because of the child's death that he feels uncomfortable like her?

Seeing her in a mess, Bai Muqing felt a little sympathetic.

Nangong Chen looked over and saw her at a glance. He restrained his embarrassment a little bit, and stared at her with the same indifference as before: "Miss Bai, is peeping also your hobby?"

Bai Muqing panicked, and hurriedly retreated her body.

There is a distance of about 1.5 meters between the balconies of the two houses, whether it is far or near, except for the half-wall separating each other, most houses will install invisible anti-theft nets.However, since these two houses do not live in people on weekdays, they did not install the obtrusive anti-theft net.

At this moment, Bai Muqing just wanted to escape, so she turned around and walked towards the house.

Looking at her back, Nangong Chen didn't speak, but raised his slender right leg and stepped on the half of the short guardrail.

Bai Muqing turned her head away when she heard the movement, and was instantly terrified by his actions, she whispered: "Young Master Chen, you are crazy! Get down quickly! The child can regenerate after he is gone, but if you fall from here, you will die." It's dead, it's not worth it Young Master Chen, don't be stupid!"

God, what is he going to do?Can't think about it?
Doesn't he know that he's drunk, what if he falls from such a high place?Bai Muqing was anxious and didn't know what to do.

But Nangong Chen jumped over from that side, Bai Muqing let out a low cry, her mouth gaping in fright.

"Why are you running away?" Nan Gongchen grabbed her arm and pulled her back, looked at her mockingly: "At this time... shouldn't you try your best to seduce me like last time?" Why... this time you turned around and ran away when you saw me? What's going on with you two sisters... all of them are so inexplicable... which one is the real you...?"

His speech was a little knotted, probably because he drank too much.

Bai Muqing was left speechless by his questioning, just now she was only thinking of running away, but she didn't think of acting.This time he just caught him, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Me." Bai Muqing hurriedly broke away from his hand, and said, "Young Master Chen, can we choose another day? Today is inconvenient, my mother and my brother are in the room."

Nangong Chen mockingly smiled: "Don't you know the password of my house?"

"Stop making trouble, it will be bad if my mother sees it, Young Master Chen, hurry back." Bai Muqing anxiously pushed him to the edge of the guardrail, and then pulled him back: "No, it's too dangerous here Well, you'd better go through the door."

After she finished speaking, she wanted to pull Nangong Chen towards the gate, but Nangong Chen didn't leave with her, but just stared at her. For a moment, he had the feeling that the woman in front of him was his wife .

He grabbed her wrist with his backhand and turned her wrist over.

Bai Muqing was frightened by his actions, raised her hand in a hurry, and slapped Nangong Chen's face fiercely, hitting him directly on the guardrail next to her, and said angrily, "Nangong Chen, what on earth are you trying to do?" You really think that I, Bai Muqing, have to be you, don’t you? That night when I mustered up the courage to send myself to the door, you said “Get out” and swept me out with my face. Now I’m empty and I want it, but I ran away Come to me? Let me tell you that I, Bai Muqing, am the mistress of the Lin family in the future, not a prostitute you can come and go as soon as you recruit!"

Bai Muqing scolded all this in one breath, raised her finger to the other side of the wall: "'Get out of here' is not only you who are qualified to say it, I also have it! Get out.!"

After being scolded by her like this, Nangong Chen became a little more sober.

He closed his eyes secretly, he really didn't understand how he could flirt with a woman so frivolously, and he would think of this vicious woman as his wife.Just because she sang a few songs and told a story?

Tonight's Bai Muqing is indeed different from her impression, is this the two sides of human beings?Same as Bai Ying'an?
"I'm sorry that my child left me. I feel sad." He said softly, his tone full of decadence.

Bai Muqing didn't expect that he would suddenly soften his attitude and apologize, let alone that he would tell her about the child, she felt pain in her heart, and really wanted to go up to hug him and comfort him.But she can't do this, all she can do is continue to say with a gloomy face: "I know, I heard what my little mother said, but it has nothing to do with me, and I'm not interested in hearing it, you know, I told you In this life, Bai Ying'an is at odds with each other."

Nangong Chen nodded, turned around and was about to leave, Bai Muqing hurriedly said: "Young Master Chen, let's go through the gate. I'm responsible for falling to my death. I'm going to get married soon, and I don't want to make trouble before the wedding."

Nangong Chen raised his eyes and glanced at her, then walked towards the door.

He finally left, and he left through the door. After closing the door, Bai Muqing breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was full of mixed emotions.

She raised her wrist, and the tooth marks on it were covered by her sleeves. Fortunately, she was quick enough to react just now, otherwise Nan Gongchen would have discovered it.

She couldn't imagine what it would be like if Nan Gongchen discovered her identity at this time, and she never dared to think about such things.

When she turned around after locking the door, she saw Zhu Hui standing behind her and looking at her. She froze for a moment, and quickly pointed to the direction of the door: "He was drunk and jumped from the balcony. Chase him away."

Zhu Hui glanced in the direction of the door, stared at her in astonishment and asked, "What did he just say? His son died?"

It turned out that she heard it, Bai Muqing nodded sadly, and walked into the house.

Looking at Bai Muqing's leaving back, Zhu Hui finally understood that this was the reason why she was sad all day.

*****
Nangong Chen didn't return all night, Bai Ying'an couldn't help but started to worry again, and called Nangong Chen early in the morning.

When she called, Nangong Chen was running on the treadmill on the terrace to decompress. Seeing her number, he hesitated before connecting.

Immediately, Bai Yingan's concerned voice came from the other end of the phone: "Master, where did you go last night? Why didn't you answer the phone?"

Nangong Chen thought for a while, and said, "I'm on a business trip, and I won't be going back for a few days."

"Then when are you coming back?"

"I don't know for the time being, you should rest at home."

"Oh, then take care of your body and don't get too tired." Bai Ying'an's tone was full of reluctance: "I'll wait for you to come back."

"Okay, hang up first." Nan Gongchen hung up the phone.

Looking at the phone that had been hung up on the screen, Nan Gongchen unconsciously turned his head and glanced at the next door. At this moment, he thought of the woman next door again.

Bai Muqing, who was next door, was lying behind the floor-to-ceiling windows listening to the movement, and just heard these few lies from him, she didn't expect him to hide here alone, even Bai Yingan didn't know about it.

Is he trying to seal himself off?The child's departure is such a big blow to him?

Bai Muqing suddenly blamed herself. If she hadn't insisted on giving birth to the child, or if she hadn't asked the mysterious man to exchange the child, Nangong Chen wouldn't have to go through today's pain.

"Sister, what are you doing here?" Xiaoyi who just woke up asked in a daze.

Bai Muqing hurriedly pulled him over, pointed to the neighbor and said, "The uncle next door is in a bad mood, can you go and accompany him?"

"Uncle?" Xiaoyi stepped out of the terrace. When he saw Nangong Chen next door, who was wearing a normal sportswear, he immediately whispered happily: "Uncle! When did you come here?"

Nangong Chen heard his voice, turned his head and smiled at him: "Last night."

"Then uncle, you must have no breakfast again, right? Can I go over and bring you breakfast? Can I go over there to play? And oh, uncle, what is that thing you stepped on? It seems very fun."

Nangong Chen thought for a while, then nodded: "Come here."

"Thank you, Uncle." Xiaoyi happily turned and ran to the gate.

"Wait a minute, Xiaoyi." Bai Muqing pulled him back and stuffed a large plate of food into his hand: "This is breakfast for the two of you, you can eat with uncle over there, remember Keep our previous agreement. Also, the one under his feet is called a treadmill, don't be so ignorant, but you can't play, you know?"

"Got it." Xiaoyi took the big plate and walked towards the door.

Xiaoyi walked to the door of Nangong Chen's house, Nangong Chen just opened the door, looked at the big plate of breakfast in his arms and asked in surprise: "Did you really bring me breakfast?"

"Yes, uncle, I will bring you breakfast every day." Xiaoyi put a large plate of breakfast on the table, and immediately ran out to visit the treadmill he had never seen before.

Seeing that he was very interested, Nangong Chen stretched out his hand to press the switch, and then pointed to the running belt: "It's for body training, do you want to try it?"

Xiaoyi squatted down, stretched out her hand and gently touched the rotating running belt, and shook her head: "I can't do strenuous exercise."

"Why?" Nangong Chen asked.

"Because I have a congenital heart disease."

"Congenital heart disease?" Nangong Chen was stunned for a moment, this familiar name instantly pricked his heart like an embroidery needle, causing pain.

His child lost his life because of this disease, and now this disease has become the deepest pain in his heart.

"Yes, my sister said that if I do strenuous exercise, I will be in danger of getting sick." Xiaoyi stood up and said to Nangong Chen: "Uncle, you should turn it off."

Nangong Chen turned off the power of the treadmill and followed Xiaoyi back to the house.

The sensible Xiaoyi walked to the coffee table, took out the sandwiches, bread slices and milk from the big plate, and said to Nangong Chen: "Uncle, these sandwiches are made by my sister, they are delicious."

Nangong Chen picked up one of the sandwiches and took a bite. The taste and texture were okay, but it was still far worse than the ones outside.He looked at Xiaoyi who was drinking milk, and asked curiously: "Is your sister usually taking care of you?"

"Yes, my sister loves me very much."

"Then she has been with you all these years?"

Xiaoyi shook her head: "That's not true. I lived abroad with my mother before, and my sister and brother-in-law were in City C."

"Your sister and brother-in-law are getting married?"

"Well, my brother-in-law loves me very much too." Xiaoyi smiled smugly, then looked him up and asked, "Hey, uncle, where is your family? Why have I never seen you have a family?"

"My family..." Nangong Chen smiled: "They don't live here."
