Chapter 58 Will Daddy Come Back on My Birthday This Year?
The phone continued to vibrate.
Wen Ci's hands were numb from the shock. Finally, after Xie Yiyi's reminder, Wen Ci took a deep breath and answered the phone.
"Uncle."
"What took you so long to answer the phone? Is your daughter still not at peace?"
Xie Peizhou's calm and gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. Wen Ci felt that no matter what happened, he could face it calmly and calmly.
Her palms were sweating and her breathing was stiff. She said, "No, Nian Nian has calmed down and gone to kindergarten."
Xie Peizhou, "Yeah."
Wen Ci's breathing was slow, and she didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just said "hmm".
“…”
Immediately, both ends of the phone fell into silence, as if they had run out of topics to talk about.
An unknown amount of time had passed before Wen Ci's hand, which was held to her ear, felt sore. It was so quiet that she suspected Xie Peizhou had hung up the phone.
Just as he was about to put down his phone, Xie Peizhou's deep voice rang out again, "Wen Ci, I didn't finish what I said this morning. I wanted to ask you, what do you think the staff at the Civil Affairs Bureau will do if we go to get the marriage certificate today?"
When Wen Ci heard the words "Civil Affairs Bureau", her heart tightened.
Could it be true that Xie Peizhou wanted to get married with her as Yi Yi said?
Why so sudden?
Perhaps because she had been silent for too long, Xie Peizhou asked and answered his own questions.
"The staff at the Civil Affairs Bureau will review the documents we submitted, register our marriage according to the law, and wish us a long and happy marriage."
After that, there was another silence.
Wen Ci's heart was pounding, but he was just making an analogy and didn't say anything to her personally.
What exactly does he want to do?
Wen Ci couldn't stand his pulling, so she mustered up the courage to speak bluntly: "Uncle, what do you want to say?"
What if Xie Peizhou really said, Wen Ci, let’s get married?
Will she agree to him?
The only answer she got was the sound of her own increasingly chaotic heartbeat.
On the other end of the phone, Xie Peizhou stood in front of the French window, his dark eyes gazing at the white clouds floating in the blue sky in the distance, his thin lips pursed.
He said, "I want to say that from a legal perspective, we have neither a genetic relationship nor an adoptive inheritance relationship, and getting married is completely legal. Therefore, the feelings we have developed do not constitute incest."
The man's tone darkened. "What happened back then... was my fault for not handling it properly. Don't let it become a source of internal conflict, and don't take Xie Hongwei's words seriously. From now on, I will silence this group of people forever. No one will use this to criticize you again. Got it?"
After hearing this, Wen Ci was stunned for a second.
My heart sank as if it was weightless, like opening a long-awaited gift box but it turned out to be a false alarm.
She closed her eyes, gave a cold and bitter smile, and spoke quickly, "I understand. Thank you for your concern, uncle. I am very grateful that you have done so much for me. When you are old, I will definitely be filial to you and provide for your retirement!"
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the president's office, Xie Peizhou was holding his cell phone. When he heard Wen Ci's low and respectful words, he froze in place.
After a moment, he clenched his phone and said calmly, "Wen Ci, we are less than ten years apart in age. By the time I'm too old to move, I'm sure you'll be gray-haired too. The best we can do is support each other and watch the sunset. I'm afraid you won't be able to support me in my old age."
Wen Ci hung up the phone and said, "Then I wish my uncle a long life, may he live longer than me. I'm going to hang up first. I'm going to the supermarket with Yi Yi to buy Nian Nian a birthday present. Goodbye, uncle!"
Next to him, Xie Yiyi was driving the car. Seeing the tone of Wen Ci's voice when she hung up the phone, he felt that it was probably not a proposal.
"What's wrong?"
Wen Ci: "He advised me not to think too much about it, not to care about Xie Hongwei's condemnation, and said that my liking him back then was not a sham, and asked me not to waste time on internal affairs."
Xie Yiyi glanced at the driver's seat through the rearview mirror, and saw that Wen Ci had already turned his face towards the window.
After a moment, she heard Xiaoci struggling, "Can he not be so nice to me? He clearly doesn't like me, but he still takes care of me because of my parents' will and Grandpa Xie's instructions. I really don't want to fall into this anymore..."
Xie Yiyi sighed, and caught a glimpse of the new message in the car from the corner of his eye, which was still from Lu Bingchen.
My heart suddenly sank.
The car music played.
-
Enter the mall.
Wen Ci's mood was adjusted.
Maybe she has really grown up, or maybe she has a more important weakness, and can endure the feeling of unrequited love. She will no longer be as heartbroken as she was five years ago when she was rejected by Xie Peizhou and wanted to end her life.
Xie Yiyi bought the little girl a pink children's camera at a digital goods store. Perhaps influenced by her, the little girl is very good at posing and taking pictures, which is just right for her to record her little world.
Wen Ci shopped around for a long time and picked out a doll gift set for her daughter that she had been longing for for a long time.
Later, he bought her a Snow White dress and a princess bicycle with Snow White's image printed on it as a birthday gift from "Dad".
The gifts I bought were temporarily placed in the back seat of Xie Yiyi's luxury car. If they were left at home, the little girl would take them out in less than a day.
In the afternoon, Xie Yiyi said she was going on a date with Lu Bingchen.
Wen Ci asked her to wear a condom.
Then, half an hour before kindergarten is over, I go for a walk to pick up my daughter.
Before school is over, the school gate is crowded with parents picking up their children, dads, moms, grandparents, and grandparents, each of them looking forward to seeing their babies.
Wen porcelain is no exception.
The crisp bell rang, and the young children, under the orderly guidance of the teacher, rushed into the arms of their loved ones one by one.
"Mommy!"
The same is true for Wen Niannian.
Wen Ci squatted down, hugged her, and saw that she was holding a cute little bag in her hand, like a souvenir.
"What is this?"
"It's our classmate Wang Zilong's birthday, and this is a gift for us!"
Wen Niannian was very happy. The sadness she had felt in the morning worrying about her mother "remarrying" was swept away. She said coquettishly, "Mommy, my birthday is coming soon too. Can I prepare gifts for my classmates for my birthday too?"
Wen Ci smiled gently and said, "Of course you can. Kindergarten is not only for learning knowledge, but also for making friends."
As she was speaking, Wen Ci heard a voice saying, "Wen Niannian!"
Hearing the sound, I looked and saw that it was Wang Zilong, whom I had met twice.
Wang Zilong walked over with a young man, spoke to his daughter in a lively and cheerful manner, and introduced her, "This is my dad!"
"Hello, uncle."
Wen Niannian greeted politely, "Wang Zilong, this is my mommy, you've met her!"
"Hello, Auntie~"
Wen Ci bent down and smiled, "Hello, Wang Zilong."
Wang Zilong looked at Wen Niannian and asked in confusion, "Wen Niannian, why is it your mommy who picks you up every day? At my house, my mom, dad, grandpa and grandma take turns picking me up. They all want to come. What about you? Why have I never seen your dad, or your grandpa and grandma?"
Wen Niannian smiled and replied, "Because my father is very busy at work and doesn't have time."
"Huh? That's all just kidding. My mom said time is like water in a sponge. No matter how busy you are, if your dad loves you enough, he will definitely come pick you up."
Wen Ci looked down at her daughter, and it was obvious that these words had affected the little girl's mood.
Wen Niannian's eyes were slightly red, but she still smiled and said, "No, my dad loves me very much. He prepares lots of gifts for me every year and writes me letters. Writing letters is so romantic!"
"My birthday is coming soon too. Will Daddy come back for my birthday this year?"
Nian Nian looked up at her mother.
Wen Ci was about to speak when she heard Wang Zilong excitedly say, "Really? Then can I come to your birthday party? I want to meet your dad and see who is more handsome, your dad or my dad!"
Wen Niannian looked at him defiantly, "Of course it's my dad. My dad is the most handsome in the world! Wang Zilong, just wait and see!"
