Chapter 020 Chapter 20

Chapter 20 "He will be a child who grows up in love."

Xie Zhiyu's calmness and trust gave Xie Liuzheng a great sense of security.

"I think he's cheating." She shook her head, unable to provide much information.

It was so magical to hear Shen Baili's inner thoughts. Xie Liuzheng would not speak them out rashly until he was sure.

Even if Xie Zhiyu trusted her, he would not believe her "nonsense".

If her nephew suddenly told her that he could hear other people's inner voices, her first reaction would be to take him to the hospital for a check-up.

Nowadays, young people are under ridiculous amounts of pressure and can easily develop mental problems.

She too, has a terrible headache now.

Xie Liuzheng took out the medicine prescribed by the doctor from her bag and swallowed it with water.

Xie Zhiyu's face changed: "Are you sick?"

Xie Liuzheng: "No big problem, just a headache."

"I just came from the hospital. This is the medicine the doctor prescribed."

"You don't look well. Do you want to go to the lounge and rest for a while?" Xie Zhiyu was very considerate and took up the matter.

"I will investigate the affair."

Xie Liuzheng agreed: "I feel relieved to leave this matter to you."

"I'm going to take a break."

She was tired after being tense for too long and suddenly relaxed.

Xie Zhiyu: "Have a good rest."

Xie Liuzheng lay on the bed in the lounge and fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow.

Xie Zhiyu gently closed the door of the lounge, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked outside.

The Xie Group Building is located in the city center. The president's office is located at the top of the building, and the prosperity and busyness of the entire city can be seen at a glance.

The sunlight shone on Xie Zhiyu's body, stinging his eyes and making them hurt.

Xie Zhiyu took out his cell phone and contacted the private detective, Xie Liuzheng's bodyguard and life assistant.

He knew Xie Liuzheng and she would not make a fuss about something, but her mental state was too bad and she was vague about the source of the news about Duan Xing's affair.

Xie Zhiyu can only start with others. His aunt is as smart and kind-hearted as Xie Tingsi, and can easily be used by people with ulterior motives.

No matter whether Duan Xing was off track or not, he would find out.

As long as he is around, no one can bully his family.

In the evening, the setting sun dyed the clouds orange.

Xie Liuzheng woke up from her dream and looked at the scenery on the horizon for a while. She declined her nephew's suggestion to return to Xie's house and drove back to her house in the city center.

As soon as she entered the room, she smelled the aroma of food.

The familiar aroma came from her favorite corn and pork ribs soup.

"Honey, I'm back."

Duan Xing came back from the kitchen carrying a plate. He had only taken off his formal suit jacket and put on a grey apron. He looked handsome and fit for home.

Seeing Xie Liuzheng coming back, his eyes lit up with joy: "Wife, welcome home."

He put down the plate and took the bag from her hand: "Honey, are you still feeling uncomfortable? What did the doctor say?"

Xie Liuzheng handed the bag to Duan Xing as usual, and she regained her composure.

The relationship that has lasted for more than ten years is real, and his sincerity and care for her can be felt at all times.

In any case, she couldn't convict Duan Xing just because of a little doubt.

"My head still hurts a bit, and the doctor prescribed some medicine for me."

Xie Liuzheng sat down and quietly enjoyed Duan Xing's head massage: "Is your old problem coming back?"

"I know a Chinese doctor. Can you come and see him someday if you have time?"

Xie Liuzheng frowned: "No, I don't like to drink bitter medicine."

"If you rub it for me, it won't hurt."

She was very skilled at playing tricks, and Duan Xing was always helpless against her: "You."

"If it hurts again next time, I will take you to a Chinese medicine clinic." Duan Xing pretended to be angry.

Xie Liuzheng raised his hand and swore: "I promise."

She hugged Duan Xing's waist and smelled the faint scent of cedar on him: "Hubby, I'm hungry, let's eat."

Duan Xing asked lovingly, "Does your head hurt anymore?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xie Liuzheng let him go and noticed the scratches on his arm. She grabbed his hand and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

Duan Xing showed her the wound on his arm: "I was scratched by a wild cat."

“It has been dealt with.”

Xie Liuzheng said helplessly: "Did you go to feed the stray cats on the roadside again? I have told you many times that you can feed them, but don't touch them casually. Cats are very vigilant."

Duan Xing: "This time it's a well-fed wild cat. She's too naughty."

Xie Liuzheng couldn't convince him: "You are always so stubborn."

“Remember to get your rabies vaccine.”

Duan Xing: "My cat and I have both been vaccinated, so don't worry, my wife."

…

Xie Liuzheng drank two bowls of soup. Duan Xing knew how to gauge her appetite.

Duan Xing didn't forget to give her more vegetables while eating.

Xie Liuzheng is a picky eater and doesn't like vegetables.

Duan Xing always spends a lot of time on how to cook vegetables so that she can eat more.

Xie Liuzheng ate the vegetables, which tasted sweet and refreshing, without the bitter taste that she hated.

The line is still the same as before, it has never changed.

For a moment, Xie Liuzheng felt guilty for his doubts.

"Wife, do you want some rice tonight?" Duan Xing served himself a bowl and looked at Xie Liuzheng's empty bowl.

She usually doesn't eat at night, but for some reason she felt like eating today: "Honey, give me half a bowl of rice."

Duan Xing took the bowl and served the rice, then asked casually, "Wife, did you go to the company to see Zhiyu today?"

This sentence made Xie Liuzheng shudder: "How do you know I went to see Zhiyu?"

Duan Xing handed her the bowl without panic: "Eat more rice, it's good for your health."

After nagging attentively, he explained, "I wanted to ask you about the test results this afternoon, but you didn't reply to my message and no one answered my phone call, so I had to ask Zheng Nuan. She told me."

After saying that, he looked at Xie Liuzheng somewhat aggrieved, as if to say, you bad woman, how could you treat me like this.

Xie Liuzheng looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, husband. I muted my phone when I checked it and forgot to turn it back on."

Duan Xing: "Then eat more today, and your husband will be magnanimous and forgive you."

"Good! My husband's belly can hold a boat."

Xie Liuzheng picked up the chopsticks and ate his rice in small bites.

After finishing his meal, Duan Xing checked his cooking results with great satisfaction, threw the dishes into the dishwasher, and freed his hands.

After they finished their meal, they walked back home slowly.

Under the warm orange light, the shadows of the two people gradually moved away.

Xie Liuzheng was lying on the bed, and she remembered something.

She only told Zheng Nuan that she was going to the company, but didn't say she was going to look for Xie Zhiyu.

Why was Duan Xing so sure that she was going to see Xie Zhiyu?

…

The next morning, Duan Xing and Xie Liuzheng went to visit the welfare home as planned.

Xie Liuzheng no longer made excuses for not going to the welfare home, because there were things there that needed to be confirmed.

They will visit two welfare homes today and spend half a day with the children.

Xie Liuzheng did not find any children that suited her taste at the first welfare home, but the welfare home and the staff there left a good impression on her, so she donated 500,000 yuan in cash to improve the children's living environment.

It was already late when we arrived at the second welfare home.

The children in the orphanage are very sensible. They know what the arrival of the adults means, and they all gather around Xie Liuzheng and Duan Xing to share their lives.

Duan Xing always responded gently. In the lively environment, Xie Liuzheng was inexplicably concerned about the little boy holding a doll in the corner.

The little boy looked like the porcelain doll she liked when she was a child, beautiful but fragile, and yet extremely lonely in the crowd.

Xie Liuzheng walked over to him, squatted down, and whispered, "Your doll is very cute. What's its name?"

The little boy lowered his head even lower, his eyebrows wrinkled like caterpillars, and he looked up at her cautiously: "Doll."

Xie Liuzheng asked curiously: "Wawa, is it called Wawa?"

The little boy hugged the puppy stuffed animal tightly and repeated, "It's called Wawa."

"It's a lovely name. Is it your little friend?"

"Um."

…

"My name is Xie Liuzheng, what's your name?"

"Xiao...Xiao Sheng."

…

On the way back, Duan Xing looked at Xie Liuzheng several times.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"I thought you would choose Xiaosheng." Duan Xing said, "You seem to like him very much."

The child named Xiaosheng was indeed pleasing to her eyes, but with Shen Baili's inner voice reminding her, Xie Liuzheng would not make a decision lightly: "Let's wait and see."

Duan Xing: "Okay."

As if just asking casually: "Adopting a child does require caution."

Xie Liuzheng nodded, looked through the rearview mirror at the orphanage getting farther and farther away, and said, "You said before that if we adopt a boy, what should we name him?"

Duan Xing's eyes flashed with surprise, he mistakenly thought that Xie Liuzheng wanted to adopt Duan Sheng.

"Duan Muzheng, Duan Xing loves Xie Liuzheng."

"He will be a child who grows up in love."

Xie's house.

Xie Zhiyu received feedback from the private detective.

"Mr. Xie, the man you want to investigate is very self-disciplined, has a clean environment around him, and has not had close contact with women..."
