Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Seeing that Fu Zhengting kept staring at the bullfrogs, Huo Qijun picked one up to cook for him.

Fu Zhengting refused, "I don't eat this."

Huo Qijun put it in his own bowl, saying, "Those who dare not eat it won't eat it, but those who dare to eat it love it."

Seeing that the wine in Fu Zhengting's glass was still intact, he raised his glass and said, "Brother Ting, have a sip."

Fu Zhengting frowned slightly as he looked at the wine glass. Drinking would only make him feel worse if he was already in a bad mood.

He hated the decadent way of getting drunk.

He raised his glass and clinked it with Kenneth Fok, taking only a small sip.

Uncle Zhong likes to drink, especially ice-cold alcohol. He added ice cubes and drank half a glass in one go.

He thoughtfully prepared Want Want milk for Xiaolinglong.

Little Linglong drank her milk happily and started humming a little tune.

Uncle Zhong, who had placed his hand on the table, couldn't resist reaching over to grab his phone and secretly take a picture.

I deliberately took a five-second photo and sent it. Seeing that Mu Tiantian hadn't replied yet, I couldn't help but wonder what Mu Tiantian was busy with at this time.

Over at Mu Tiantian's place.

She was also eating, eating with Jiang Hui.

When Jiang Hui woke up, she said she suddenly wanted to eat Peking duck, so she ordered takeout and the two of them shared half a duck.

She gave the scroll to Jiang Hui and didn't have time to check the message.

Jiang Hui reminded her, "Tian Tian, ​​check your phone messages first. It might be from A Shen."

She really enjoys the meticulous care that Sweetie provides.

When she used to work as a cleaner, a coworker would always complain to her about how disobedient and rebellious her daughter was. Every time they talked about it, they would envy her, saying that Tian Tian was so much better than those disobedient children.

When she was with her classmates and they ran into her pulling a garbage truck at the school gate, she didn't pretend not to know her just because she was a cleaner. Instead, she introduced her to her classmates in a generous and confident manner.

It was precisely because Tian Tian was so sensible that she was afraid of losing her and never dared to tell Tian Tian about her background.

This time, she told Ah Shen directly when he returned from the port city.

The longer you keep it a secret, the more guilty you feel.

She asked anxiously, "By the way, Sweetie, it's been six days today, has Ashen come back yet?"

Mu Tiantian paused slightly as she picked up the dough.

She was afraid that Jiang Hui would see through her guilty conscience. She took a bite of the rolled-up dough and tried to make her movements as natural as possible. "Mom, not yet. A-Shen said that there are many things to do over there and he will be busy for a while before he comes back."

For now, we can only use this excuse to delay.

Let's see if we can clear up the misunderstanding with Fu Zhengting and continue pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend.

If not, wait until your mother has fully recovered, and then figure out how to explain things to her.

Jiang Hui was a little disappointed, but she thought it was normal for a big boss like her future son-in-law to be so busy.

Since we've already kept it a secret for so long, we might as well keep it a secret for a little longer.

She smiled and nodded, "It's nothing, Mom was just asking."

She patted Mu Tiantian's hand. "Tiantian, Shen is so busy, please be understanding. If you call him and he doesn't answer in time, don't be angry."

Sweetie is so sensible; she believes Sweetie understands all of this.

Mu Tiantian smiled, her lowered gaze filled with bitterness and guilt.

The act of playing boyfriend and girlfriend gave the mother such high hopes from the very beginning; if they didn't continue, it would be difficult to end the situation.

Unless Fu Zhengting falls in love with her and they become a real couple, this lie can be covered up perfectly and can be treated as if it never happened.

But now, she doesn't even dare to think about that possibility.

"Although I trust Ah Shen a lot, he's so handsome and rich, there must be a lot of women eyeing him. When you're not together, be careful," Jiang Hui reminded her.

"Shen is definitely not the kind of person who would cheat or betray a relationship. He and I are both very serious and devoted to relationships." Mu Tiantian said firmly, not wanting her mother to worry.

That's what she thought too.

The more loyal a person is to their feelings, the less they will tolerate deception.

Jiang Hui smiled and nodded with relief, "Mom also thinks so. Although I was blind when I was young, I have learned my lesson and know how to judge people now."

When I was younger, I only looked at the surface of things and didn't know how to judge a person's character from the details.

"However, no matter how much we trust, we can't completely trust a man. We must always be careful, keep some sincerity to ourselves, and not be too enthusiastic. Most importantly, if you find that Ah Shen is not sincere or you don't get along with him, don't think about compromising yourself just to get money for my continued treatment. The most important thing is your happiness..." Jiang Hui said with a very serious look in her eyes.

Mu Tiantian was moved. Hearing her mother's last words, "The most important thing is your happiness," she suddenly felt all the pressure in her heart disappear.

Even if she can't hide it anymore in the end, her mother will understand.

Jiang Hui rolled up a bun and fed it to Mu Tiantian, saying, "Hurry up and check your messages."

Mu Tiantian wiped her hands, opened WeChat and saw that it was a message from Uncle Zhong. Afraid that her mother would see it, she stood up, made an excuse to go to the bathroom, and only opened the video in the bathroom.

After watching the video, I realized that Fu Zhengting's profile picture was actually this little girl.

So cute.

She's so adorable, she wants to have a daughter right away!

Now she wants to have a child with Fu Zhengting, but Fu Zhengting doesn't want her to anymore.

Watching Fu Zhengting holding the little girl and smiling so lovingly, you could feel his fatherly love even through the screen.

It turns out that Fu Zhengting is so warm and loving when he's with children.

Different sources portray him as so cold in the photo taken during a reporter's interview.

When she saw the little girl kiss him on the cheek, she couldn't help but smile.

What adult could resist such adorable human babies?

The trick Uncle Zhong mentioned was indeed amazing.

She felt that the tightness in her chest was lessening.

At least he can still laugh, so it seems her words didn't hurt him that badly.

Let's look at the second video, which features only the little girl.

The more I look, the more I like it.

No wonder Fu Zhengting likes this little girl so much; she's such a joy to be around.

She noticed the dishes on the table, including bullfrogs, which she loved.

She bought the groceries in the fridge. She found a lot of discount coupons on Meituan and bought them, thinking that she could have hot pot when Fu Zhengting came back.

Feeling a pang of sadness, she replied with a drooling emoji and typed: "Uncle Zhong, the hot pot looks so delicious. If I were here, I could finish it all by myself."

When Uncle Zhong saw that Mu Tiantian had finally replied to his message, he sent her a message: "[When you and the CEO make up, let's have a big meal together]."

Mu Tiantian smiled warmly and typed a "good".

Uncle Zhong noticed Fu Zhengting's gaze shifting to him again, a death stare in his eyes. He hesitated to say much more, cautiously replying, "Sweetie, that's all for now. My boss almost found out I tipped you off; it was dangerous."

Looking at Uncle Zhong's reply, Mu Tiantian imagined the scene, covered her mouth, and smiled as she replied, "Okay."

She watched the video several times before leaving.

Jiang Hui was a little full and wanted to go for a walk to digest.

Fear flashed in Mu Tiantian's eyes; she was afraid Mu Sining would come to the hospital again, especially if Mu Sining had a sharp tongue...

But it's not good for my mother to stay cooped up in the hospital room all the time.

We'll just have to adapt to the situation.

If Mu Sining dares to be so foul-mouthed, she will retaliate in the same way.

After thinking it over, she still pushed Jiang Hui out.
