Chapter 421: Confess, I don't want to lie anymore
Too many details of my time with Xunxun flashed through my mind.
The warmth that she had never dared to hope for was suddenly within her reach.
I really can't bear to let go!
"I sign."
The moment she grabbed the pen, the sound of swans came from outside the window. A group of white birds were flying over the lake and heading towards the reeds in the distance.
The moment she signed her name, Xi Muxuan's cell phone rang.
She picked up the phone and laughed after listening to a few words: "Qi Moxun really took over the debt and said he would formally adopt Xunxun."
She handed the phone to Han Lingcui and said, "Listen to it. It's so touching."
Qi Moxun's low voice came from the receiver, with unquestionable firmness.
"Yes, so that he has no reason to target Xunxun again!"
In the background, there was Xunxun's laughter, and Shen Hanxing's gentle admonition: "Don't be too tired, we will wait for you to come back for dinner."
Han Lingcui hung up the phone abruptly, her heart feeling as if it was being torn apart.
It turned out that they had planned to take her child away completely. All that tenderness and kindness was just sugar coating wrapped around their plundering desire.
"Now you believe it, right?"
Xi Muxuan took back the phone, her tone filled with the triumph of a winner.
"They don't love the child; they want to make him their own property. Only you, Han Lingcui, truly care about Xunxun's best interests."
When Han Lingcui rushed out of the restaurant, a drizzle began to fall from the sky.
She stood by the lake, watching the rain wet the surface of the lake and turn the golden sunlight into a turbid state.
My phone vibrated in my bag. It was a text message from an unfamiliar number, with only a photo in it.
Chen Hanxing was holding Xunxun on the carousel in the amusement park. The child was holding a cotton candy and smiling brightly. In the background, Qi Moxun was holding a camera to take pictures, and his profile was unspeakably gentle.
There is another line of text below the photo:
[I'm Mr. Qi's assistant. Miss Han, you can come here when you're done.]
She was invited to play!
Han Lingcui squatted by the lake, letting the rain wet his hair.
She remembered how seriously Chen Hanxing copied the recipe for her, how he quietly placed the hot coffee on the table when she was working overtime, and how excited she was when Xunxun stuffed the first strawberry into her mouth...
Those details were like puzzle pieces, pieced together a warm outline bit by bit, but she broke the puzzle with her own hands.
Xi Muxuan's car stopped on the side of the road, and the driver rolled down the window: "Ms. Han, Miss Xi asked me to take you to the law firm."
Han Lingcui did not move.
She looked at the lonely swan on the lake. It was probably alone and was circling anxiously on the water with its neck stretched out, as if calling its companions.
"Tell Xi Muxuan that I won't sign."
She stood up, her voice especially clear in the rain, "I want to fight for custody, but not in her way."
The driver was stunned. "Ms. Han, do you know what this means? The Xuanyuan family's debt will fall into Qi Moxun's hands, and then..."
"I know."
Han Lingcui turned around and walked back. The rain flowed down his cheeks, but it could not wash away the determination in his eyes.
"But I can't trade one lie for another. Xunxun has the right to know the truth and the right to choose who she wants to be with."
She wanted to find Qi Moxun and Shen Hanxing and explain everything clearly.
Talk about her helplessness, her struggle, Xi Muxuan's conspiracy, and the maternal love that has been hidden for too long.
Even if they would hate her and drive her away, she wanted to let them know that she never intended to hurt Xunxun.
When the taxi arrived, the rain had stopped.
The sunlight penetrates the clouds and reflects dazzling light on the glass curtain wall.
Han Lingcui clutched the paternity test report, took a deep breath, and walked into the revolving door.
Just then, Qi Moxun came out.
He took off his suit jacket and put it in his arm, with his tie loosened by two buttons. He was obviously stunned when he saw her: "Why are you here?"
Han Lingcui's heart was beating rapidly. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Xi Muxuan walking out from behind him.
"Axun, you should think carefully about what I said."
Qi Moxun frowned, "There's no need, and I won't cooperate."
After saying that, he asked his assistant to see the guest off.
Qi Moxun was actually very surprised that Xi Muxuan appeared here.
Because no one knew where Xi Muxuan had gone or what she was doing before.
Xi Muxuan had deliberately tricked Fu Jingheng before, which to a certain extent helped him.
Even without these, Xi Muxuan was the apple of the Xi family's eye. He had received favors from the Xi family before, so he would not kill her immediately when he saw her now.
So, we can still chat for a while.
Unexpectedly, what Xi Muxuan wanted to tell him was about the annexation of the Xuanyuan family.
Only then did he realize that Xi Muxuan had really gone crazy this time.
Naturally, he wouldn't agree, so he refused coldly.
It was Xi Muxuan who refused to give up.
There was no other choice but to send the person out personally.
I just happened to run into Han Lingcui.
Then he looked at Han Lingcui.
"Did you get the message? Come play?"
"I..." Han Lingcui's gaze fell on the smug smile on Xi Muxuan's lips, and he suddenly understood.
The other party had long expected that she would go back on her word and was waiting here deliberately to embarrass her.
"fine."
She clenched the report in her hand and turned to leave, but was stopped by Qi Moxun.
"What's going on?" His eyes were deep. "You look terrible."
Xi Muxuan chuckled: "Axun, don't scare Miss Han. Maybe she is here to tell you that she has come to her senses and wants to leave Xunxun? After all..."
She leaned close to Han Lingcui's ear, her voice low enough for only the two of them to hear, "Some people are not born to be mothers."
Han Lingcui suddenly took half a step back.
Almost mentally collapsed!
Qi Moxun's face darkened little by little, and the shock in his eyes was like a stone thrown into a lake, creating ripples.
Xi Muxuan covered her mouth, but a hint of a triumphant smile flashed in her eyes.
Han Lingcui's tears finally fell. "Xi Muxuan found me and said that as long as I signed the agreement, she could take back the custody and let me take him away from you..."
She told him everything, from the hunt she had been going through five years ago, to her previous relationship with Xunxun, to Xi Muxuan's threats and temptations.
Every time I spoke, it felt like a piece of my heart was being gouged out, until in the end I couldn't utter a single word and could only stand there trembling.
Xi Muxuan took a step forward and immediately denied it.
"Axun, don't believe her! You know my abilities. If I really wanted to do something, it wouldn't be so troublesome."
"That's enough." Qi Moxun interrupted her, his voice as cold as ice, "Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
Xi Muxuan was stunned.
Then he suddenly burst into laughter.
"Why don't you tell me what I'm thinking? If you're right, maybe you really are in tune with me."
Qi Moxun didn't want to waste time talking to her, so he asked his assistant to take her away.
Seeing how heartless he was, and with people watching around, Xi Muxuan didn't want to embarrass herself, so she sneered and turned away.
"I'm sorry." Han Lingcui lowered his head and choked with sobs as he watched her leave.
"I shouldn't have kept it a secret, and I shouldn't have almost let her use me... If you don't want to see me again, I'll leave immediately."
Qi Moxun suddenly sighed: "Are you planning to leave just like that?"
"I……"
"Xunxun is still waiting for you to make pumpkin porridge for him."
Han Lingcui looked up suddenly, with tears still in her eyes, but she saw the affirmation in Qi Moxun's eyes.
Seems to be saying.
I don't blame her at all!
"Han Xing is waiting for you too." He added, "She said there are some things that Xunxun should know."
On the way back, the car was very quiet.
Han Lingcui held the paternity test report in his hand, and the temperature of his fingertips gradually rose.
Qi Moxun didn't ask any more questions, but just handed her a tissue while waiting for the red light.
Han Lingcui was even more moved and despised his previous behavior even more.
