Chapter 121: Face it calmly
Her large hand gently caressed Ning Tong's portrait, pulling back Mu Chen's distant memories. Although Xiao Er cried sorrowfully, and everyone was reluctant, Xiao Er was still sent away by his parents to Public Security Bureau. His parents originally wanted to wait for Xiao Er's family to come and fetch her, but after waiting for a long time, they couldn't.
Because it was getting darker, his parents left Xiao Er in the Public Security Bureau in the end and they went home first.
After that, they received a call from Public Security Bureau. Xiao Er was taken away by her housekeeper auntie, but when she asked them where Xiao Er's home was, the police said that the person who came to pick him up refused to answer any of their questions.
Just like that, Xiao Er was sent back to her home.
At the same time, they also did not find out who Xiao Er's family's child was.
Her father had tried to find out more about it, but there was someone faintly hindering him. As a result, he was unable to find any definite information, and did not know whether Xiao Er was doing well or not when she returned home.
Mu Chen was vexed that he did not bring Zhang Xiao and Xiao Er together. Obviously, Yi Xiu Jie had called Zhang Xiao Zhang Xiao a Xiao Er in front of him. It was Zhang Xiao who he did not expect to lose contact with his little sister from the Twenty-Two.
"Tong Tong." Mu Chen muttered. Although she was no longer crying, her eyes were still red, her mood was still low, and she was still in pain. If Ning Tong was still alive, perhaps all of these would have been rewritten.
"What do you think I should do? Zhang Xiao was her little sister from back then. "That year, I picked her up. Now, our daughter loves to stick close to her and even called her mother …"
Returning to reality, Mu Chen did not know how to handle Zhang Xiao.
Other than knowing that Zhang Xiao was her little sister from back then, he had faintly realized that she was becoming more and more attracted to Zhang Xiao. How could he be attracted to her? He should not forget about Tong Tong.
However, Zhang Xiao was like a magnet that attracted his attention. After merely half a month of being together with her, she had unknowingly been attracted by her.
After standing up, Mu Chen slowly returned Ning Tong's photo back to its original position and looked at the two toy dog s.
Reaching out, he picked up the two toy dog, then went to fetch the two car key before leaving with them.
When he pulled open the door, he saw Zhang Xiao standing in front of his room with Mu Ya in her arms. She was not stupid, when he took away the toy dog, when he scolded her, she must have thought of the past.
Should he blame her for forgetting their names and letting them meet as if they were strangers?
Pursing his lips, Mu Chen could not say a single word. He was only five at the time, so it was normal for his to forget about him after separating Twenty-Two. Perhaps it was because after she returned home, many things that caused her to feel pain and sadness, causing her to forget something.
At this moment, Mu Chen's mind was in a mess. He wanted to go out, he wanted to find someone to pour out the pain and contradiction in his heart.
Mu Ya didn't know what was going on between the two of them, but her bright eyes kept on rolling back and forth, looking at Zhang Xiao and looking at him from time to time. When looking at Zhang Xiao, she would even use her little hand to wipe his eyes. That action was very light, but it also made Mu Chen understand that she wanted to help Zhang Xiao wipe his tears.
This child was becoming more and more popular.
Mu Chen did not speak, nor did Zhang Xiao, and she did not know what to say either. His lips moved, but he was unable to utter a single word. Should I call him Mr. Mou, or big brother?
She never dreamed that Mu Chen was that big brother from back then, and even more so, that Ning Tong was a Little Big Sister.
That year, after she understood every detail of those days, they returned to her mind. Memories were beautiful, but reality was sad.
After a long while, Mu Chen made a move, he moved away from Zhang Xiao, past her, and left.
Zhang Xiao hugged Mu Ya who stood stiffly at the door, and turned back after a moment, only seeing his back as she walked down the stairs. His back was obviously still straight. Somehow, Zhang Xiao felt that his back was now filled with endless sadness.
She knew what he was hurting.
What hurt him was the loss of Ning Tong.
What troubled him was that she was Zhang Hao Tian's daughter.
"Mom."
Mu Ya shouted.
Zhang Xiao held her tightly and said gently: "Mu Ya, are you tired? "I'm sleepy. If I give you some milk powder, you can drink it and then sleep."
No matter how painful it was, Zhang Xiao was still calmly facing the reality of the current situation.
Escaping was not the way to solve the problem.
Back then, they were fated to meet each other.
Now that they were fated to reunite, she believed that it was a deliberate arrangement by the heavens to allow them to reunite and resolve some fates.
Mu Ya pointed to the direction of the stairs, and called out: "Father … "Father …"
Zhang Xiao carried her to the staircase. Mu Chen had long since walked out of the main house, and the sound of cars could already be heard from outside. She had even heard Mu Chen's bodyguards ask him where he was going, and the answer they got was to not follow him.
"Mu Ya, it's father's."
Zhang Xiao gently taught Mu Ya.
Mu Ya smacked her lips, and the person who called out was still his father.
Knowing that she could not change her mind at the moment, Zhang Xiao did not force her. There was always a stage of development for everything.
Mu Ya yawned. It was time to go to sleep.
Zhang Xiao carried her and walked back.
Back in Mu Ya's room, she placed Mu Ya on the ground and took Mu Ya's bottle to wash. The little guy was used to drinking milk powder before going to bed, this kind of milk powder was something that many children would have to drink. At a certain time, not giving Mu Ya to drink this would be equivalent to asking for her life.
While Zhang Xiao was still cleaning the bottle, Mu Ya anxiously followed behind her. Her eyes were fixated on the bottle, as if she would eat her milk bottle. In addition to staring at the bottle, she kept saying, "Mom, Mom."
"Mu Ya, don't worry, your mother will feed you the powdered milk right now."
Mu Ya still followed her and spun around.
After washing the bottles, Mu Ya couldn't wait to reach over to grab the bottles. She was afraid that she would burn her up, so she quickly stopped her.
"Mom!"
The little guy who hadn't managed to snatch the bottle of milk began to flatten his mouth.
Even though he didn't cry, his eyes were red.
There was nothing she could do. It was better than wishing. She could only cry.
"Mu Ya, wait a little longer, it's still a little hot. If you drink it, it'll burn your small mouth, and then it'll hurt a lot." Zhang Xiao coaxed this kid who was anxious to drink milk powder.
Mu Ya's eyes were filled with the milk powder from the bottle, unable to hear a word of what was being said. Her aggrieved appearance did not even manage to get the bottle, so she started to cry very impolitely.
Zhang Xiao placed the bottle on the table. The bottle mouth was twisted open, so she picked up Mu Ya and coaxed him. Once the milk powder had cooled down and she was sure that it would not burn the child's mouth, she put him down, then helped Mu Ya to tighten the bottle mouth.
