Chapter 1197 Mom and Dad Separated, Who Should I Live With?
After Gu Wanqiu promised Li Jinxing that she would give birth to the child, she began to take good care of the pregnancy.
I decided to do the same as before, eat well, sleep well, take a walk every day, and relax my mind.
This New Year, there are two more people than expected, He Tian and Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi is okay, he is a bit reserved, but He Tian can't control his mouth and dares to say anything.
With He Tian around, it was difficult for Gu Wanqiu to relax.
He dared to say anything and was not afraid of anything, especially when Li Jinxing was not around, his sarcastic words were like a killing knife.
He Tian stayed for three days and promised his two children that he would accompany them to the amusement park, and took them there on the first day of the new year.
The amusement park was crowded with people, which was something He Tian did not expect. He thought that on the first day of the new year, everyone would go out to visit each other, and there would be few people in the amusement park. He did not expect there were so many people. Looking around, he saw that they were all families with children, and many of them were couples.
He Tian was good at taking care of children, but in a crowded amusement park, he had to be on guard against human traffickers, so he had to keep a close eye on the two children. Fortunately, Zhou Yi came with him, and they each looked after one child without any effort.
Siyan was having a lot of fun and was sweating profusely. He Tian, who was carrying a backpack and holding a clean towel, wiped his sweat off. "Did you have fun?"
"Happy!" His face was filled with excitement, but after a while, a hint of disappointment appeared in the depths of his eyes. "If only Mom were here, it would be great. I haven't been to the amusement park with Mom yet. What a pity..."
"You can bring her next time." The child really loves his mother. He thinks of her wherever he goes and has so much fun, but the first person he doesn't forget is his mother.
"I don't know when the next time will be. Mom is pregnant.
My sister is coming, and I have to wait until she’s born, and Mom needs to take good care of her health…” I always feel that the next time I bring Mom here is a long, long time away.
"Do you like your mother very much?"
"It's not like, it's love. I love my mother very much. Not only me, but my brother loves her too."
"Oh?" Do children still understand the difference between love and like? He Tian asked again, "Have you never blamed your mother? She only showed up when you were so old, and she didn't recognize you at first."
"She didn't recognize me because she was injured and lost her memory. She forgot about me. I don't blame her."
"If your father and mother quarrel one day, whose side will you stand on?"
Li Siyan was stunned for a moment, glanced at He Tian, then lowered his head and said, "Men can't bully women."
"So you're on your mother's side?" This answer surprised He Tian. He laughed and jokingly said, "You heartless little thing! Your father worked so hard to raise you, and your mother has only been back for a few months, and you've already stolen your heart. If your father knew about your choice, he would be so heartbroken."
Si Yan raised her head, her face filled with anxiety, as if she had already imagined that scene. She clenched her hands nervously and explained, "I'm not against Daddy's side. Mom and Dad's quarrel is their own business. They can solve it. As long as Daddy doesn't bully Mommy, I won't interfere."
"Why do you think your father might bully your mother, but not your mother might bully your father?"
"Dad is tall and has a bad temper. He is scary when he gets angry. Who can bully him? And last time, Dad got angry at Mom and locked the door..." Si Yan suddenly closed his eyes.
I felt that these words should not be said out loud.
"What happened to the door?"
"Nothing, I won't say anything."
He almost got the whole thing out, although he only said half of it. But He Tian could probably guess the reason why Li Jinxing got angry at Gu Wanqiu not long ago.
"Then one last question. If your parents have to separate one day, who will you live with?"
With whom? Si Yan had never thought about this question, although he had told Gu Wanqiu in the hospital not long ago that if she was unhappy, she could leave.
But what would happen after Gu Wanqiu really left... Si Yan never thought about it in detail. He always felt that they could meet again after people left.
"I don't know, I haven't thought about these things..." Si Yan said weakly. His head hurt just thinking about these things. He muttered, "Uncle He, you are so weird. You always ask me these weird questions. If they really break up one day, it must be because they were not happy when they were together. As long as mom and dad are happy, then I am happy. My brother and I just want to maintain the current situation. It's not like we will never see each other again even if we break up."
A five-year-old child doesn’t know that there is a saying called “never see each other again until death”. Not all partings can lead to the opportunity for reunion.
But what Si Yan said was not without reason. People live for a happy and comfortable life. Li Jinxing did not see things as clearly as his son. He Tian saw that the little guy was unhappy, so he did not make things difficult for him and stopped asking such sarcastic questions.
Just at this time Zhou Yi brought Si Xu back with the candy man he bought. Si Xu sat on Zhou Yi's shoulders. Because she was timid, she held the candy man in her left hand and hugged Zhou Yi's head with her right hand.
"Are you back? Where are we going to play next?"
Zhou Yiyi
Holding Sixu's hand, he pointed to the northeast and said, "We haven't been there yet."
He Tian touched his chin. "If I remember correctly, that's the aquarium over there. I think you need to buy a separate ticket. Siyan, do you want to see dolphins and sea lions?"
"Yes!" Si Yan was attracted by all the attention and instantly forgot the unpleasantness just now. He even took the initiative to hold He Tian's hand and said, "Uncle He, I want to ride a horse too."
"Okay." He Tian was quite strong. He picked up Si Yan and lifted him over his shoulders, letting him sit on it. "Hold on tight." He said, putting his hands on Si Yan's knees to steady him so that he wouldn't fall backwards.
The four of them walked towards the aquarium.
Everyone here is having fun, but the atmosphere in the villa seems very deserted.
Gu Wanqiu made a mess of the bedroom, but she didn't find the surveillance camera in the end. She slept too late and stayed in bed the next day. Li Jinxing came upstairs to call her for dinner, but when he found that the door couldn't be opened, he knew that Gu Wanqiu had locked it.
Although he gave Gu Wanqiu the key, he had more than one key. He had a spare one. Li Jinxing took out the spare key and inserted it into the keyhole. He clearly felt something blocking it and could not open the door.
"Gu Wanqiu is up." Li Jinxing took the key back slowly. He was not worried about what Gu Wanqiu would do. After all, they had just made a verbal agreement yesterday. Even if she wanted to change her attitude, it would not happen so quickly.
Gu Wanqiu was woken up by a knock on the door. She was a little grumpy, but thinking that it was New Year's Day, she suppressed her temper, got up, put on her coat, and went to open the door.
Her bedroom hadn't been cleaned up yet. When the door opened, Li Jinxing saw the messy floor and asked, "Have you found the surveillance camera?"
? "
Gu Wanqiu shook her head.
"I told you I'd already picked them, but you refused to believe me. I'll ask Sister Li to come in and clean up later. You clean up first and go eat."
Gu Wanqiu got up late, and when she went downstairs it was already ten o'clock. She didn't see Si Yan, Si Xu and the others, so she asked.
I learned from Mrs. Li that He Tian and Zhou Yi took their two children out to play early in the morning and didn't even have breakfast.
Sister Li took out two envelopes from her bag as she spoke. "Si Yan and Si Xu asked me to give these to you. They said they were New Year's gifts."
Gu Wanqiu took it and opened the two envelopes. Inside were handmade greeting cards. Si Yansi had written a blessing message on them, and there was 520 yuan inside the cards.
The card is too small, 520 is the limit, if it were a little bigger and filled with more, maybe 1314 would be enough.
Gu Wanqiu looked at the money inside and laughed. She should have been the one to wrap the red envelopes, but she didn't expect that the two children got there first.
Si Yan and Si Xu are not short of money, so if she gives out red envelopes, it would seem too ordinary. Gu Wanqiu thought about it and asked Mrs. Li what the two children liked.
Mrs. Li: "Of course Siyan and Sixu like you the most. As long as it's a gift from you, they will like it no matter what it is."
Gu Wanqiu didn't get an accurate answer from Mrs. Li, so she could only search online. She had a lot of money in her card, so she could buy many gifts for her two children.
Gu Wanqiu took the initiative to find Li Jinxing: "Give me back my phone."
"What are you doing with your phone?"
"You are asking this question. The phone is mine. Even if I do nothing, I still want it back.
My own things are fine.”
"Gu Wanqiu, you didn't believe me, and now I don't believe you either. Who knows if you'll contact Gong Qing behind my back after you get your phone back, and then discuss with him how to plot against me."
Gu Wanqiu: "..." She did have the idea of contacting Gong Qing, but her idea was simple. She saw Gong Qing on the way back that day. She was afraid that he would worry after not contacting him for such a long time, so she wanted to call him to let him know she was safe.
Seeing that Gu Wanqiu was speechless, Li Jinxing shifted his eyes from the TV to her face and glanced at her roughly.
To hide her inner thoughts, Gu Wanqiu feigned composure and met his eyes. "Since I've already promised you not to contact Gong Qing before the baby is born, then I absolutely won't. I want my phone back so I can choose New Year gifts for Si Yan and Si Xu. Besides, everyone has a phone these days, so it's convenient for them to make calls and use the internet. It's very inconvenient for me not to have one."
Li Jinxing didn't believe her, but it would be unreasonable for him not to return the phone to her.
However, in the past few days he found a way to install a hidden locator in Gu Wanqiu's mobile phone, and set it to "share" with his mobile phone. He could find out what Gu Wanqiu did with the phone and who he contacted.
After setting these up, Li Jinxing thought about how to return the phone to Gu Wanqiu. Now that Gu Wanqiu asked about it, he would return it to her.
"I put it upstairs. Wait here for me while I go upstairs and get it."
Gu Wanqiu had never thought that she could get the phone so easily. When she was in the hospital, she asked Li Jinxing for it, but Li Jinxing either ignored her or asked her for it.
She would either say that looking at the phone was bad for her eyes and health, or finally, out of impatience, she would say that her phone was thrown away by him, which made her very angry.
Gu Wanqiu sat on the sofa for a while and was attracted by the Spring Festival Gala on TV. A skit was being played.
Li Jinxing came downstairs not long after he went upstairs and handed the phone in his hand to Gu Wanqiu.
Gu Wanqiu took it and looked through it carefully to see if it was damaged or if Li Jinxing had deleted anything from her.
Her phone was turned off, and when she turned it back on, several caller IDs popped up immediately.
There were strange calls, spam calls, and one from Gong Qing. He only had one missed call and no text messages.
Gu Wanqiu looked at it... For a moment, she didn't know whether she felt relieved or disappointed...
She was relieved that Gong Qing didn't send any text messages about Li Jinxing, but she was disappointed that he also didn't send any words of concern to her, and after so many days, he only called her once.
Gu Wanqiu lowered her eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed the bitterness in her heart. She tried to comfort herself. Perhaps Gong Qing had sensed that something had happened to her. At that time, Li Jinxing was furious. If he called or texted too much... it would only cause trouble. Perhaps Gong Qing didn't want to implicate her...
Gu Wanqiu read through the messages and missed calls, then sat on the sofa and began to choose a New Year's gift for Si Yansi.
Li Jinxing glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw that she was really choosing a New Year's gift, so he didn't think much about it.
If there was no "abortion", his relationship with Gu Wanqiu would still be
It is "good", even if it is "fake good", he is satisfied. At least he can receive a hypocritical gift in the New Year.
Now Gu Wanqiu doesn't even want to act with him.
Gu Wanqiu bought clothes, various children's books, and toys suitable for boys online. She kept placing orders and spent tens of thousands of dollars in a short time.
"Is the money enough?" Li Jinxing suddenly spoke up.
Gu Wanqiu paused and glanced at Li Jinxing.
Li Jinxing continued, "If that's not enough, I have some here."
"I have money, so I don't need yours, but you still have to give me what you owe me. I'm still working for you, and now I'm working while pregnant, so you can give me a higher salary."
"good."
Li Jinxing took out his cell phone. Not long after, Gu Wanqiu's phone vibrated. A text message appeared on the screen. The bank reminded her that someone had transferred 200,000 yuan to her, with the note "salary" on it.
Gu Wanqiu saw it and accepted it with peace of mind.
For Li Jinxing, 200,000 is a drop in the bucket of his assets and is not much at all.
Although Gu Wanqiu hated Li Jinxing, she didn't need to be so picky about the money. You know, the amount of money people spend on surrogacy these days is much higher than that. She also helped him take care of the child, plus the mental damage compensation for the past few days. A mere 200,000 yuan was too little in Gu Wanqiu's eyes.
Li Jinxing now gave her 2 million, and she accepted it.
Gu Wanqiu bought a lot of things, some of which can be delivered today.
"When will Siyan and Sixu come back?"
"If you miss them, just call them. They have phone watches."
Gu Wanqiu had their contact information. After thinking for a moment, she shook her head and said, "They're having a great time right now. If I call them, it'll just spoil their fun. They'll come back when they want to. It's just that... He Tian and the others are staying here for a few days. Is he going to spend his entire New Year's holiday here? And then take Si Yan and the others out to play?"
The house is more lively when there are children. Without them, even the lively New Year's Day seems deserted.
