"Uncle, you're so handsome!" the little girl said sweetly.

Su Chen then realized.

I feel like I've seen this girl somewhere before; if I remember correctly, it was in the woods last time.

That is to say...

"Excuse me, sir, my daughter is a little agitated."

Su Chen looked up and saw a woman wearing a yellow down jacket walking towards him.

She looked haggard, as if she hadn't slept all night; her eyes were bloodshot and surrounded by dark circles.

I feel lightheaded when I walk, as if I might faint at any moment.

Zhu Luxi stayed up all night last night.

Feng Daocheng really didn't reply to a single phone call or text message.

Finally, there's a glimmer of hope.

Now that Feng Daocheng has personally destroyed it, she wants to find a lawyer today to see if she can sell the company to pay off some of the debts.

As soon as they stepped outside, they saw their daughter clinging to a strange man's lap.

It made her very embarrassed.

At the same time, she was also very puzzled that her daughter didn't show any emotion when facing strangers.

Let alone hugging his legs.

She didn't even call out to him, and when she went to see He Xingfu last time, she didn't even call him "Auntie".

Why is she clinging to a man's leg this time?

He even said so affectionately that he was so handsome.

When Zhu Luxi looked up and saw Su Chen's face, she was completely stunned.

Why does he have such a handsome face?

And why does he seem so familiar? Could he be a friend of mine who returned from overseas?

"Ah!!~!"

Zhu Luxi screamed, turned around, and covered her face with her hands.

I quickly pulled a makeup mirror out of my makeup bag.

I took a look at it.

"Ugh, such dark circles under my eyes! I didn't sleep all night, how did I end up like this!"

"There's still hair! What should we do?!"

"I should have put on some makeup first to calm myself down before coming out."

Upon seeing this, Su Chen was basically certain who the other person was: Zhu Luxi from "Go, Mom!"

I grew up in a sweet environment.

She believed Feng Daocheng's sweet words and married him in anger.

During the honeymoon phase, they were just like any other couple, incredibly sweet together.

But later on, as Feng Daocheng's company expanded, more and more branches opened.

He spends less and less time at home.

Furthermore, without Zhu Luxi's knowledge, she was made the company's legal representative.

Ultimately, he went bankrupt due to failed investments, accumulating a mountain of debt, and now it seems he's hiding abroad from his creditors.

However, Zhu Luxi became a defaulter without her knowledge.

Even the child's desire to attend a decent kindergarten is denied.

Judging from her current state, she probably knows that her husband has run away.

Su Chen looked down at the little girl.

Pink and rosy.

She looks like a little porcelain doll.

"Looks like my affability is universally appealing to the boss." Su Chen smiled and picked up the girl.

"Don't call me uncle, call me brother. I'm only 18 this year."

Isabel, held in Su Chen's arms, showed no discomfort and instead retorted with a grin.

"No, I want to call you uncle. Mom, look how handsome this uncle is! He's more handsome than any of the celebrities I've ever seen."

Zhu Luxi turned around when she heard her daughter call her.

By this time, his face had been covered with foundation, and his dark circles had faded to the point of being almost imperceptible.

However, the bloodshot eyes were still visible.

The fatigue on her face hadn't disappeared much.

However, her complexion looked much better after she put on makeup.

"I'm sorry, sir, that's just how my daughter is; she's more likely to be close to kind people."

Zhu Luxi took her daughter from Su Chen, and their hands touched briefly.

Zhu Luxi felt as if she had been electrocuted.

My body went numb.

She quickly took the child from him, cursing inwardly, "How long has it been since you've been with a man?"

Why are you so sensitive?

"We..." Zhu Luxi was about to ask if she could add him on WeChat.

A phone call interrupted her train of thought.

I picked up the phone and took a look.

His expression darkened.

It was the landlord calling.

I guess they just want them to leave as soon as possible.

Seeing this, Su Chen could guess what kind of call it was, so he didn't linger and let her answer it.

Watching Su Chen's retreating figure, Zhu Luxi was filled with mixed emotions.

"Oh, what a great man, why did it take me so long to meet him?"

Open the phone.

Sure enough, it was the landlord across the street coming to urge us to finish our work.

He had always thought that the house he lived in was bought with money earned by Feng Daocheng, but he never expected that it was actually rented.

The news came like a bolt from the blue.

This also shattered her last shred of hope for Feng Daocheng.

"Hey, landlord, could you give me a few more days? I can raise the money right away."

“I’m not forcing you. I’m immigrating in a few days, and I’m planning to sell this house. A wealthy businessman is currently acquiring the property here, and the contract is expected to be signed in the next few days. If you don’t move out, it will be difficult for me.”

"Please don't do this. We've been renting for several years, but things haven't been going well this year, and the money arrived late..." Zhu Luxi pleaded over the phone.

She has no money right now and is too embarrassed to ask her family for more.

What if they get kicked out?

She really will have to sleep on the streets with her daughter.

"All I can say is that this wealthy businessman is probably just buying the house temporarily and doesn't intend to stay there long-term. If possible, you can contact him to see if you can rent a place from him, but that's up to you."

Zhu Luxi, as if grasping at a lifeline, anxiously asked, "Do you have his contact number?"

"Not yet. I'm contacting an agent, and I'll let you know when I have the information."

"Thank you, thank you very much."

Zhu Luxi stared at the phone, tears streaming down her face like soybeans.

once Upon a time.

This amount of money meant nothing to her, but now it feels like an insurmountable chasm.

He lay between himself and the villa.

How ridiculous.

She really doesn't want to lose her current life, but it seems like she's powerless to do anything about it.

If all else fails, she will have to take the child home first.

I will find a way to live in Shanghai on my own.
