Chapter 44 Not Uncle, Dad

Ruan Liuzheng pursed her lips slightly and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She turned her head away. "Don't be so absolute."

Although she admitted that she might be somewhat attracted to Xie Qingcen now, it was still uncertain whether they could be together until the end.

What's more, she is now a little unsure whether she can even handle this difficult marriage.

Being with Xie Qingcen was too far away for her.

Xie Qingcen's eyes flashed, and his eyebrows raised slightly, with a hint of disbelief.

After a long while, he looked at Ruan Liuzheng, his dark eyes tinged with seriousness, "I won't refute what you just said, because time will prove everything. However, some things still need to be reiterated."

"For example, the sentence 'A man's heart and desire can be separated', I don't think it's a problem of my self-control." Xie Qingcen paused, then curled his lips, "The reason why a man desires a woman, in the final analysis, isn't it because of the heartbeat?"

"I admit that my behavior towards you just now was indeed a little offensive, but I couldn't help it. For men, subconscious behavior can often prove a woman's fatal attraction to him."

"And you are the woman who has a fatal attraction to me. Xiao Liuzheng, after what you did just now, I am even more certain that I will never let you go."

The tone was overbearing and strong, revealing an unquestionable affirmation.

Ruan Liuzheng pursed her lips. After a few days of getting along, she had some understanding of Xie Qingcen. Besides, this was not the first time he had expressed his determination in a strong manner.

She actually got used to it.

Now, although her heartbeat was still a little distorted, she was able to face it calmly.

Ruan Liuzheng looked away silently, without saying a word or refutation.

Just quietly looking at the scenery outside the window that was rapidly receding.

As Xie Qingcen said, time will prove everything.

…

When Ruan Liuzheng returned to Yuelan Mansion, he thought he would be faced with a mess.

But...it seems like the room has been cleaned up by someone.

Not only were the things damaged by Fu Yanci replaced, but even the intact furniture was replaced with new ones.

The quality was obviously much better than what she had bought before.

Ruan Liuzheng looked at the room which had been renovated, turned his head and glanced at Xie Qingcen indifferently.

She spoke, and although her tone was calm and without ups and downs, if you listened carefully you could detect a strong sense of displeasure hidden in it.

“Why are you changing my furniture?”

Xie Qingcen came in a little later than Ruan Liuzheng. He looked up at the house which was obviously very different from before, and a hint of satisfaction flashed across his dark eyes.

Qi Chong's work efficiency this time is quite good and deserves praise.

He nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Ruan Liuzheng, "If you don't change, do you want to sleep in a house that has been touched by another man?"

In that case, even if Ruan Liuzheng didn't mind, he would mind.

Ruan Liuzheng pursed her lips and lowered her cold eyes slightly.

After a long while, she said, "No, I think it's dirty!"

So before she came back, she had already prepared to take her son to stay in a hotel for one night.

Because whenever Ruan Liuzheng thought about the fact that everything in the house had been touched by Fu Yanci, she couldn't help but feel nauseous.

But...she raised her eyelids, and a hint of coolness flashed across her eyes.

This does not mean that she would allow Xie Qingcen to take things from her house without permission.

Especially the current decoration style, which is obviously somewhat similar to someone's home.

Don't make one's thoughts too obvious.

Ruan Liuzheng's delicate eyebrows were slightly wrinkled and her face was tense.

Xie Qingcen was unaware of this. He walked straight into Ruan Liuzheng's house, and carefully examined the current decoration style with his dark eyes. He looked so relaxed as if he was the owner of the house.

"Mom! You're back!"

Fu Jingcheng heard the noise and ran out of his room, his fair and tender face showing excitement.

Although he called out to Ruan Liuzheng, his soft little body honestly threw itself into Xie Qingcen's arms, "You guys are finally back. Chengcheng was almost worried to death."

Fu Jingcheng hugged Xie Qingcen's neck tightly with his arms, and rubbed his little face against Xie Qingcen's neck affectionately.

There was unconcealable excitement in her big eyes like black grapes, without any trace of sleepiness.

Ruan Liuzheng walked slowly up to the two of them, looked at Fu Jingcheng's appearance, and frowned slightly.

She is only five years old, so why does she suddenly feel like she is no longer under the control of her mother?

She took a deep breath and said, "Chengcheng, get off your Uncle Xie quickly. It's too late. You should rest!"

Fu Jingcheng turned his head, pouted, and said with a slightly dissatisfied tone, "Mom has emphasized to you many times that I have recognized Uncle Xie as my godfather. He is not my uncle anymore. He is my father!"

He spoke each word with great seriousness.

Xie Qingcen raised the corners of his lips slightly and raised his eyebrows towards Ruan Liuzheng, as if he was showing off something.

Ruan Liuzheng pursed her lips, and glanced at Xie Qingcen with cold eyes, her eyebrows helpless, "Just think of it as a slip of the tongue. But Fu Jingcheng, shouldn't you go to bed now?"

Fu Jingcheng paused slightly in swinging his calves.

Whenever his mother called his name, it meant that she was starting to get angry.

Although his mother rarely got angry with him, he would still subconsciously feel afraid every time he heard his mother call his name.

But this time it was a little different.

Fu Jingcheng leaned in Xie Qingcen's arms, feeling the hard but safe chest behind him, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise slightly.

The big eyes like black grapes stared at Ruan Liuzheng steadily, with a hint of cunning flashing across his eyes.

"But mom, tomorrow is the weekend, Chengcheng doesn't have to go to school. And I haven't had dinner yet, Chengcheng is so hungry!"

Fu Jingcheng raised his eyes to look at the lunch box on the coffee table not far away, bit his lower lip lightly, and unconsciously revealed a bit of grievance on his face.

Ruan Liuzheng's eyes widened.

I had forgotten about this matter.

Fu Yanci arrived almost at mealtime. He started by questioning everyone and then roughly searched the entire room.

As a result, Ruan Liuzheng's entire attention was focused on dealing with Fu Yanci's affairs, and she completely forgot about dinner.

Although Qi Chong brought dinner later, the police had already arrived.

Ruan Liuzheng had no time to think about anything else, and her son had been frightened all night.

After she left, I still had to worry about her, so I probably had no time to think about those dinners.

Ruan Liuzheng frowned, and a rare hint of guilt appeared in his cold eyes.

She looked at Fu Jingcheng, her expression slightly relieved, "Then Mom will heat up the food for a midnight snack. You should go to bed quickly after eating. Children who stay up late will not grow taller!"

At the end, he did not forget to emphasize the warning.

Fu Jingcheng nodded vigorously. "Well, I promise to go to bed after supper. But before that, can Dad stay at our house for a while?"

Ruan Liuzheng's eyes moved slightly, and she looked at Xie Qingcen with a cold gaze, with a hint of threat in her eyes.

Xie Qingcen naturally knew what she was threatening, but he had no intention of accepting the threat.

His thin lips slowly lifted up, forming a shallow arc, "It just so happens that I have nothing to do tomorrow, so I'll bother you a little longer tonight. I think you won't mind."

Although it was a question, Xie Qingcen's tone was affirmative.

Because he knew that Ruan Liuzheng could not refuse Fu Jingcheng's expectations.

As if she didn't expect Xie Qingcen to be so impolite, Ruan Liuzheng tightened her palms slightly, but facing her son's bright eyes, she really couldn't say anything to refuse.

She took a deep breath, snorted coldly at Xie Qingcen, and nodded reluctantly, indicating her agreement.

Fu Jingcheng happily hugged Xie Qingcen's neck, his fair face full of joy. He looked at Ruan Liuzheng, "Thank you, Mom!"

Looking at the happy smile on his son's face, the last trace of dissatisfaction in Ruan Liuzheng's heart disappeared.

She smiled slightly, "It's okay, you and... him play in the living room, mommy will go to the kitchen to heat up the food."

Ruan Liuzheng walked forward and rubbed her son's limp little head. When she mentioned Xie Qingcen, her face still looked a little unnatural. She paused, feeling as if something was blocking the words and she couldn't shout them out.

I just used 'he' instead.

Fortunately, Xie Qingcen didn't mind. He had already obtained a satisfactory result. He just raised his eyebrows slightly towards Ruan Liuzheng when he heard it.

Ruan Liuzheng glanced at him and walked towards the kitchen.

…

On the other side, at the entrance of Yuncheng Police Station.

Fu Yanci and Bai Huanqing were finally able to leave the group of crazy media reporters under the escort of Jiang Ze and a group of bodyguards.

They got in the car and did not go to the hospital, but went directly to Fu Yanci's private residence - Junting.

A famous high-end residential area in Yuncheng.

It was too late, and Huanqing had just been frightened, so Fu Yanci was worried about letting her return to the cold and silent hospital alone.

Beishan Villa is where Ruan Liuzheng lived before, and Huanqing would definitely feel uncomfortable if she were to take her there.

Huanqing's health was not good to begin with, so how could Fu Yanci make her sad again? Besides, he was reluctant to let Huanqing live in a place that had been touched by other women.

Not even for one night.

What's more, that person was Ruan Liuzheng, the culprit who had forced Huanqing to leave her hometown.

Thinking of this, Fu Yanci immediately thought of what happened tonight. He couldn't help but tighten his grip on Bai Huanqing's watch, and a fierce look appeared in his dark eyes.

He really didn't expect what Ruan Liuzheng did, and the man who suddenly appeared in her apartment...

He looks so ordinary, and I don’t know what Ruan Liuzheng likes about him.

Even if she wants to attract his attention and make him jealous, she should find a man of better quality. Otherwise...does she really think he will take her seriously?

Fu Yanci's eyes darkened, and the anger swirling in his chest continued to surge, causing his palms to constantly exert force.

finally--

Bai Huanqing couldn't help but cry out in pain. She raised her head from Fu Yanci's arms, her clear eyes welling with tears, looking so pitiful.

"Brother Yanci, you hurt me."
