Chapter 272 Her Concerns

She took the wilting Ze in her arms and gently stroked his head, "Behave okay, your daddy will be back soon too."

"Mommy will definitely go to Suizhou to see you if she has time, even if we can't see each other, we still have our cell phones."

She coaxed gently, but Xiao Ze's tears were still snapping down like broken beads, "Mommy, no, I don't want to go, I want to stay with you."

His trickster look was a rare sight, and although Su Qinglan's heart was soft, she had to reject him once again.

"Zee, you have to understand that Mommy is worried about you right now, and if you get another high fever, your little brain will really go silly."

The little fellow dropped low, though he did not utter another word, the tears still falling from his eyes.

"So Mommy will get someone to take you back in a couple of days, and your daddy will be back soon."

"Look you disappeared this one time, daddy has been looking for you, and at home daddy should have made more time for you."

She reasoned with Ze, but the little guy's big eyes were full of dismay.

"I don't care if he's there or not, I just want Mommy, it doesn't matter where he is, a man who only makes Mommy angry is all."

He was still angry with Gu Jinchi.

Regarding the matter of Su Qinglan not being able to go home, he had already put all his anger on Gu Jinchi's head.

Not even this one departure from home could he forgive him from the bottom of his heart.

Su Qinglan was a bit helpless and placed her hand on the top of his hair, "Your daddy actually loves you."

"Mommy, why are you speaking up for him, are you not mad at daddy anymore?" Xiao Ze suddenly brightened up and inquired in a babbling manner.

Su Qinglan was silent for a moment, "It's one thing for daddy to love you, but it's another thing for mommy to not want to go back. Will you respect mommy's choice."

The little one's newly raised interest collapsed again, and with a drooping little face he turned and ran into his bedroom.

Looking at the closed door of the room, Su Qinglan could only sigh softly before contacting Qi Chen to prepare a car to send him back.

Repeated high fevers had left her drained, and I was afraid that even the doctors would be unable to look at her if she went into the emergency department with a fever in the forties the next time.

They stalemated until the evening, and Su Qinglan sat in the living room packing up the things that Ze had left behind here in the past few days.

Each one is a memory, a book they read together, a puzzle game they played together.

Trying to send him back, none of these things could be taken away, leaving them here might instead be a reminder for her.

She didn't turn on the light from sunset until it was completely dark, and Ozawa poked his head through the crack in the door of the room to ask.

"Mommy, if I must go back, can I sleep with you tonight?"

Su Qinglan froze for a moment, then walked over and hugged and kissed him, "Of course."

She delayed sending Xiao Ze back a little bit, if the news from Gu Jinchi's side was correct, he was going to go back at the beginning of next month, she would have to rush to send him before then.

Perhaps Ozawa was especially considerate of her, just sulking on his own for a while and then quieting down, hugging her to death at night even if her pillow was wet with sweat.

She couldn't make up for the five years she owed him.

Early the next morning, Kishen was already waiting downstairs, and by the time he actually had to get on the car to go back, Ze was instead nonplussed.

Near the door of the car, he suddenly turned back and hugged Su Qinglan, hugging her tightly, saying goodbye in her ear reluctantly.

"Mommy, then you must go back and visit me as often as you say you will."

"And call me every day too, that's our deal, no going back on it."

Su Qinglan's heart was flooded with sourness, and she forced herself to hold back the sadness of parting and smiled as she stretched out her pinky to pull the hook with him.

"Okay, it's a deal."

The rambling words were said over and over again, and Qishen waited patiently without uttering a single word of urgency.

Finally, the parting moment was still to come, and Zee poked his head out with the window down, waving desperately at her until the car disappeared completely from her sight.

The house without Ozawa in it regained that empty feeling.

She touched her arm and sighed heavily.

The rest of the time her life seemed to be quiet again, except for the usual phone call with Ozawa every night, she was working diligently.

Ren Lord never brought up anything about their relationship again, maintaining the distance well.

Even Gu Jinchi, in the next few days, did not deliberately appear in the parking lot again.

They didn't even have a chance to rub shoulders anymore.

In the blink of an eye it has reached the end of the month, and the holographic soft sales of Feng Yue Group have far exceeded the VR launched by Gu Zhanyan, reaching an unprecedentedly high level of effectiveness.

To celebrate, Ren Lords went straight for the blood and had a usual celebration banquet for the employees involved at the hotel.

"You're just separated, you're not never going to see each other again, so don't be such a deadbeat, will you."

Ji Qing Yue was in the middle of packing herself up with gusto when she inadvertently saw Su Qing Lan who was looking at the photo album again.

She helplessly walked over and took the necklace she was supposed to be trying on and put it on Su Qinglan's neck.

"Don't act like a divorced woman who's having a bad time, okay, big deal, I'll take a vacation tomorrow and drive with you to Suizhou to meet Ze."

"It's not easy for us to go and see him if we want to."

Seeing her dissatisfied muttering, Su Qinglan smiled helplessly and put down the album, "That's not what I was thinking about, don't worry, I'm not that fragile."

What she had in mind was nothing more than the longer term future.

That night, since she couldn't refuse Ji Qingyue's enthusiasm, she could only dress up properly, and although she wasn't considered to be dressed up, she was still enough to wow the crowd.

There was an unusual beauty and aura about her, and there was always the distance of a fallen fairy.

There was tenderness and detachment.

When Ren Lord picked her up from the car, he couldn't help but tease, "After so many days, I finally see you as a bit of a human being."

She was helpless, "And who went to work the other day, my soul?"

"Maybe, I've never met anyone that brooding anyway." He shrugged and helped her with her bag, guiding them up to the hotel box.

The box is richly furnished, a banquet hall of hundreds of square feet is even a little bit unable to stuff their company's people, Ren Lord is really not harsh in terms of kudos over the wind Yue's people.

She and Ji Qingyue were considered to be the latest to come, due to the previous reason, many people have not seen the true face of this vice president Mila, today, once they saw it, they were suddenly full of stunning eyes.

Everywhere you pass, you can hear the whispers of employees.

"It looks like the top floor of the company is going to be a place a lot of people aspire to again from now on."

Renlord joked, usually it was the curious ones who wanted to know what the president's office was like.

Now I'm afraid it's all about people who want a glimpse.

Su Qinglan was helpless, "Then I'll go?"

"No more jokes with you, but remember, don't let them know you can drink on occasions like today, I'll do the scene where it's due."

He was at her side again and again before being pulled away by the director.

Ji Qingyue couldn't help but snicker as she watched this scene, "Actually, I think Mr. Ren is really quite good."

"It's great, as long as the person who likes it isn't me, I don't have any thoughts either way right now, I'll think about all that when the Gu family's business is settled."

She said breezily, lifting the hem of her troublesome skirt to land on the seat and pouring herself a glass of white water to sip lightly.

Ji Qingyue followed closely by her side like a little follower, her eyes also revealing a touch of unwillingness, "You won't really die on this hurdle of Gu Jinchi and not be able to get over it, right?"

"I admit that this kind of man with a successful career is really attractive, but can he do what Ren Lords can do?"

"A few days ago when Ren Lord was able to take you guys out, I don't remember you telling me once that the three of you had bonding time as a family, in just one year, which looks like a newlywed couple or a couple between you guys, an agreement couple is more like it."

Su Qinglan listened to her muttering and didn't stop her, and her eyes that had nowhere to rest simply chased after Ren Lord's body.

After all, she was right about everything.

But there are times when a person leaves you with a bad impression, or a tearing experience, and yet none of it can overshadow their goodness.

These could only be hidden in her heart.

Seeing that she had been silent, Ji Qingyue also quieted down and sullenly went to bring back some pre-dinner desserts and placed them in front of her, "Eat some sweets, your mood will be better."

"Haven't you been clamoring for a diet lately?" She looked at the plate of high-sugar foods and raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Do you want me to be in a better mood, or do you want to use this as an excuse to treat yourself?"

That little bit of small mind being poked and prodded, Ji Qing Yue's smile was unnatural, aggrievedly lowering her head and muttering, "It's called a cheat meal, and what's wrong with wanting to eat something nice with you."

As if she had found a reason for herself, she brought a glass of red wine and poured it on, not waiting for Su Qinglan to react, she directly raised her glass and dried over.

"Here, drink this toast to your not-so-great past and men, there are better ones in front of you, and your sights must be set on the long term."

When she said that again, her eyes still kept hinting wildly at Ren Lords.

Su Qinglan sighed helplessly, it was hard to persuade one away, but he didn't realize that this one was also trying.

She took a symbolic sip of white water and lowered her voice, "It's better if you don't mention this matter."

"Especially in his case, where the relationship was set aside a couple days ago and we're just friends."

"If you're talking, that's not touching me, it's him."

These words sounded like a naked confession being rejected to Ji Qingyue.

She suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked to the side at Ren Lord, who had already been poured an unknown number of glasses of wine by the director, with a complex expression on her face.

O man with a broken heart, drowning his sorrows in wine.

She resentfully arched her nose, some clear glad that she didn't say anything more just now, just looked at Su Qinglan with ten thousand regrets and lamented, "Then I'll send you one last word."

"One must always move on, you can't deny entry to any other person just because those who came before you closed a door."
