Chapter 8

“So, you thought I went to the black market to buy snacks?”

After He Linyuan finished speaking, Song Li finally understood why he was determined to take the two children away.

“I’m sorry.” At this moment, He Linyuan looked like a child who had done something wrong.

“It’s okay. It’s not your fault. I made so many mistakes in the past. You have to not trust me.”

The woman said words of forgiveness, but her cold expression made her look sarcastic.

He Linyuan felt a chill on his back. “I was prejudiced and didn’t investigate thoroughly. I shouldn’t have misunderstood you.”

“Oh!”

Song Li sneered. She was almost furious. The man took the children away without saying a word. She thought something had happened and secretly shed a lot of tears.

Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, I should forgive him just because he says sorry. Why?

Yes, she occupied the original owner’s body, and she had to accept the sins committed by the original owner.

But she had already made her attitude clear yesterday. She would be good to the children and agreed to the divorce. What else was he dissatisfied with?

The more Song Li thought about it, the angrier she became. Since she didn’t trust him, then let it go!

She threw the bamboo box into the man’s arms and said coldly, “It’s getting late. I won’t delay you from catching the train.”

“Song Li…”

He Linyuan finally realized what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot. Song Li’s calmness was even more terrifying than her going crazy.

“Mom, do my brother and I not have to leave?”

The thatched hut was very small and had no soundproofing, so the children could hear clearly what the two people said.

The two kids were very smart and could easily tell that their dad had misunderstood their mom.

The little girl threw herself into her arms, her eyes swollen like walnuts from crying, and her look was cautious, looking extremely pitiful.

Song Li can be cold and hard to He Linyuan, but she can’t bear to be with her two children.

“Your father has already bought the ticket.”

So it wasn’t her who drove them away.

“dad?”

Qingqing pouted and looked at He Linyuan, while He Mingze on the side also looked at him disapprovingly.

In He Mingze’s heart, his father is an omnipotent God, but even God can make mistakes.

This time he blamed his mother wrongly.

He Linyuan was stared at by the two children and silently put down the bamboo box in his hand.

“The tickets can be refunded, but we are not leaving.”

“Okay, Qingqing wants to be with mommy!”

Qingqing burst into laughter and pulled her brother to hug her mother.

“Mom, Qingqing will always be your little baby. And brother, brother is also your baby Zeze.”

“Well, you are all mommy’s little babies.”

Song Li leaned over and hugged them both in her arms. It was the first time that He Mingze was close to his mother, and his little body was stiff.

He pursed his lips, smelled the faint scent of soap at the tip of his nose, and his eyes felt sore.

Is this what mom tastes like?

He Mingze secretly tightened his arms, wanting to hold her a little longer, but his stomach began to growl.

“Qingqing and Xiaoze, are you hungry? Come, let’s eat.”

He Mingze felt empty inside when he was suddenly released, but when his mother held his little hand, he curled the corners of his lips quietly.

At the dinner table, the little guy didn’t have a stern face for the first time, and he picked up some food for Song Li just like Qingqing did.

“Mom, you eat.”

After he finished clipping, he lowered his head, his ears turned red.

“Thank you, babe.”

The little guy finally agreed to call her mom. Song Li was flattered and reached out to ruffle his hair.

He Mingze finally let go of the worry in his heart.

Mom also calls him baby, so happy!

“Mom, these French fries are so delicious, Qingqing likes them so much.” The little girl’s mouth was full and she raised her thumbs with both hands.

He Mingze was no less enthusiastic. After the first mother called out, the others followed suit, “Mom, sweet potato meatballs are delicious too.”

“The kang potatoes are delicious!”

“Potato pancakes are delicious too!”

The two children were talking to each other, and the thatched hut was very lively.

He Linyuan sat aside, watching the excitement at the table. No one paid any attention to him, even the little guy who used to be closest to him had turned against him.

He felt jealous and glanced at Song Li secretly, but Song Li didn’t even look at him.

Humph! Let him wrongly accuse her, and forget about eating the food she cooks.

Song Li is a vengeful person, and He Linyuan scared her today.

He Linyuan was so uncomfortable that he couldn’t sit still. Finally, his girlfriend was considerate and put a piece of potato pancake into his bowl.

“Dad, eat this pancake. It’s so delicious. It’s better than any potato pancake Qingqing has ever eaten!”

“Okay, thank you Qingqing.”

“You’re welcome, Dad, but you can’t make Mom angry again, or Qingqing will ignore you.”

He Linyuan’s piece of biscuit was almost stuck in his throat. This was the first time in his life that he was scolded by a child.

But who made him do the wrong thing first?

“Well, Dad listens to you.”

“Then Mom and Dad will make up!”

The little girl held one hand and clasped the two hands together.

The woman’s soft hand fell on the man’s rough palm, and Song Li pulled it back because of the burn.

He Linyuan subconsciously clenched it, then suddenly let go.

As soon as they touched, they separated, and their hearts were beating fast.

“Eat, eat.”

Song Li’s face was so hot that she lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at him.

He Linyuan’s dark eyes trembled, a smile flashed across his face, and the cake in his mouth became especially sweet.

Originally Song Li was afraid that he would notice something unusual, but this turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

……

Beijing City.

When He Cheng learned that He Linyuan was going to take the two children back to Beijing, he smashed a set of tea sets.

His wife Zhou Yun was startled, “What’s wrong?”

Her husband has always had a mild temper, and this is the first time Zhou Yun has seen him get so angry.

“He Linyuan is going back to Beijing with the child.”

“What? He’s been gone for more than ten years, why is he suddenly coming back? Did he know that dad got promoted and he came back to share the family property?”

Zhou Yun’s face also turned ugly. Without He Linyuan, everything in the He family would belong to them.

Moreover, He Linyuan got married in the countryside. His wife and children were all sloppy and uncouth country people. Zhou Yun felt uncomfortable at the thought of living under the same roof with them.

“If they come back, I will take Changfeng back to my parents’ home, so that he won’t be corrupted by those two bastards.”

“Okay, I know what’s going on. I will never let you and your daughter suffer any injustice.”

He Cheng coaxed his wife, and Zhou Yun felt much better, “That’s about right.”

“By the way, I’ve found the blue and white porcelain vase you asked me to find. Is it still in the same place?”

Zhou Yun’s father, Zhou Hongguang, is the manager of a scrap yard in Jing City. All scraps handed over from various provinces must go through him. In the past two years, she has done a lot of picking up things for He Cheng.

But she didn’t understand what was so special about those old things, and they couldn’t be sold for much money.

There was a flash of excitement in He Cheng’s eyes, and when he thought about the price of the blue and white porcelain vase in the future, his breathing became heavy.

“Well, let my father-in-law erase the traces.”

He Cheng traveled through time from five years ago. In his previous life, he was sentenced to death for economic corruption. When he opened his eyes, he traveled back to the 1970s.

He Cheng felt that this was the compensation given to him by God. He rose from a grassroots to the position of president and knew the importance of power best.

If he had someone protecting him, he wouldn’t have died in prison.

He has a prominent family background in his life, and the only obstacle is He Linyuan, who is better than him in every way.

Originally, He Cheng didn’t take his elder brother who was kicked out of the house seriously until two years ago when he saw a letter from his father to his comrades.

The old man did not dislike his son as he seemed. On the contrary, he had secretly helped him a lot over the years.

He Cheng had long regarded the He family as his own property, and now He Linyuan wanted to take half of it. How could he accept it?

“I’m going out for a while, so don’t wait for me for dinner tonight.”

He Cheng hurriedly gave some instructions and pushed the door open. He had to call Xiao Hongling again and must not let He Linyuan and the two children come back.
