Ming Zhengxuan took the fork, but did not use it to pick up the fruit on the plate. Instead, he played with the fork in his hand, glanced at his mother and father casually, and spoke slowly.
"Mom and Dad, I didn't expect you to have some free time today, eating fruit in the yard. You're usually all busy, so I have to go to and from get off work alone. When I get home, no one even leaves a light on for me. It would be great if I had an older sister, but unfortunately, I've always been alone since I was a child, and it's pretty lonely."
Ming Zhengxuan's words were a test. He just wanted to test and see if she had any relatives like an older sister or a younger sister, otherwise the appearance of Zhong Chuchu would be inexplicable.
After hearing what Ming Zhengxuan said, Ming Huaicheng remained silent. He raised his eyes and looked at his daughter deeply. A hint of light flashed in his eyes, but when he thought of Luo Susu sitting next to him, he forced the light away. He sat there with a smile on his face, looking at his wife and daughter with love, and did not intend to speak. Instead, Luo Susu heard what his daughter said and said with a little regret.
"Hey, Xuanxuan, there's nothing we can do about it. Your father and I wanted to give you a brother or sister. Unfortunately, something went wrong when I gave birth to you, and I can't have any more children from now on. You're the only treasure in our family. But regardless of whether you have a brother or sister, Xuanxuan, don't worry, you're the apple of your mom and dad's eye."
Ming Zhengxuan's eyes flashed with disappointment at his mother's words, and he couldn't help but act coquettishly.
"So, I'm the only daughter in the Ming family. I'll be so lonely in the future. If I get bullied, I won't even have anyone to help me fight."
Ming Huaicheng remained silent throughout the whole process, with a hint of doubt in his heart. Normally, his daughter never asked about matters between brothers and sisters, but he didn't expect that she would suddenly talk about this today. Instead, a trace of kindness flashed across Luo Susu's face, and she patted her daughter on the shoulder and said.
"Xuanxuan, what are you talking about? It's true that you're the only daughter of our Ming family, but you're the apple of our family's eye. Who would dare to make trouble for you? If your grandfather were the first to disagree, he would definitely mobilize his guards to beat him to a pulp. It's just a fight. How could it be the turn of our eldest daughter of the Ming family to go into battle personally?"
Ming Huaicheng, who was listening to the conversation between the mother and daughter, couldn't help but look in the direction of his daughter and spoke.
"Yes, Xuanxuan, you are the treasure of our Ming family. Anyone with any sense in the capital would not dare to provoke you. Who would be so bold as to want to fight with you? But... then again, why did you suddenly think of talking about all this today? Did you encounter something or someone?"
When he said this, a hint of surprise flashed in Ming Huaicheng's eyes, and there was also a hint of expectation.
Could it be that... that child is still alive? And Xuanxuan has encountered her. Otherwise, why would her daughter suddenly come back and say such inexplicable things?
Ming Zhengxuan's scalp tightened when he received his father's gaze. He seemed to realize that he seemed to have leaked something, and he couldn't help but laugh again.
"I didn't meet anyone, and I didn't encounter anything, Dad. It's just that you and Mom are as loving as ever, and you always have someone to talk to wherever you go. I'm the only daughter in the Ming family, so I'm really lonely. I'm just saying it casually."
Ming Zhengxuan didn't plan to tell this matter before the paternity test results came out. After all, the world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things.
What if she and Zhong Chuchu just happen to look similar? Wouldn’t that hurt her parents’ feelings?
In the absence of any evidence, all questioning and temptation only makes you feel uneasy.
Ming Huaicheng could see that something was wrong with his daughter, but she didn't say it out loud, so he just became more alert in his heart.
There are so many people in this vast sea of people. If that child were still alive, perhaps they would meet each other in some unknown way!
After Zhong Chuchu and Bo Mu'nan stayed together at home for two days, Zhong Chuchu could no longer stay at home. Being pregnant was like being in prison. It was impossible for her to stay at home every day drinking nourishing soup to take care of the fetus.
Only career is the true love of life. What's pregnancy? Those pregnant women in the 21st century who are about to give birth are still busy writing reports and finishing manuscripts at the front line.
So, after begging Bo Mu Nian many times, Bo Mu Nian finally relented and agreed to let Zhong Chuchu go out to work. The only requirement was that he must stay with his young wife at all times to ensure her safety or to help protect her in case of any unexpected situation.
After Zhong Chuchu's protests failed, she had no choice but to go out to work with her husband. The cosmetics market was urgently needed. If she didn't seize the time to promote the cosmetics market, the sales volume of Beicheng's cosmetics would increase and become inventory. She couldn't let these cosmetics pile up in the warehouse; she had to turn them into cash.
Therefore, Zhong Chuchu took Bo Muyan to start receiving the new display cabinets, pasting the new promotional posters and picture albums, and began to arrange all the work before the cosmetics were put on the shelves.
Fortunately, there is a capable man by her side, so Zhong Chuchu doesn’t have to do anything with her hands, she just needs to use her mouth.
Bo Mu Nian was also a good helper who worked hard and did everything for Zhong Chuchu. The only regret was that his vacation was about to end, and he had to find some time to call the Beicheng Military Region to extend his vacation.
In order to promote the cosmetics market, they naturally had to recruit people. While Zhong Chuchu and Bo Munian were recruiting, they spent two days putting all the display cabinets in the mall, and then posted a large number of promotional posters to lay the groundwork for the preliminary publicity. The next step was to wait for the cosmetics to arrive in Beijing and be put on the shelves.
That day, Chen Sibin was busy sorting documents in the office. After Bo Mu'nan took a leave, both of their work fell into his hands. He was busy with work during the day and had to go back to the city to accompany his wife at night. His life was quite fulfilling.
It’s just that recently, the higher-ups are planning to organize a military competition, and they need to create a competition plan and rules, as well as select a group of people to participate in this competition.
Since Bo Munian was not at work, all the burdens fell on Chen Sibin, which made his already fulfilling life even busier.
Not only did he have to formulate the plan himself, but he also had to go to the grassroots level to select people. He was so busy that he had no time to go back to Beicheng to think about his wife these two days. This made Chen Sibin, who couldn't bear the longing for his wife after being away from her for an hour, complain bitterly.
Bo Mu Nian took leave to return to the capital to accompany his wife in the hospital, and he will not be able to come back in the short term.
Yesterday, Commander Liang revealed to him privately that Bo Mu'nan planned to extend his vacation for a while, leaving him alone at the unit to work hard. The key point was that he was so busy that he was full of anger and had no place to vent.
