Chapter 292 He was engaged to another woman? And had a child with her?
In the garden downstairs.
Not long after the three children came downstairs, they "bumped into" Mr. and Mrs. Song again. Mrs. Song greeted them warmly upon seeing them.
"Zhouzhou and Qiaoqiao, what a coincidence, we've run into each other again! It's almost dark, why are you two still outside?"
The Song couple only learned yesterday that Qiaoqiao has autism. They even called their son to ask him about it. He said that Qiaoqiao had been kidnapped when she was four years old, and the two of them were heartbroken.
“We’re just sneaking away,” Zhouzhou said. Was it a coincidence? Or were they deliberately coming to see her and her sister?
“We just bought some pastries. These are very delicious, and you have to wait in line for a long time to get them. Here, have a taste.” As she spoke, Madam Song took out an exquisite box, opened it, and handed it to them.
I went out of my way this afternoon to queue up and buy this for them.
"Thank you, but no need," Zhouzhou refused.
"Come on, everyone, have a taste. I bought a lot."
As Madam Song spoke, she insisted on giving one to each of the three children. She couldn't help but look at the boy in the white T-shirt. He looked just like that boy, Shen Yan!
She ignored the other child and looked at Qiaoqiao with heartache. She raised her hand to pat her head, but Qiaoqiao didn't like being touched by strangers and took a step back.
Madam Song knew that she was not familiar with her yet, so she didn't blame her.
"Little Qiaoqiao, eat up, it's still warm. It won't taste good when it gets cold." Madam Song coaxed her gently, afraid of scaring her little granddaughter.
Qiaoqiao looked at the pale pink, delicate, and beautiful soft pastry in her hand, took a bite, and blinked her big, bright eyes. Delicious…
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Mrs. Song asked, looking at her granddaughter.
Qiaoqiao nodded to her.
Madam Song was pleased to see that she had spoken to her, and immediately handed over the entire box of pastries.
"Then you can have the rest too. Take it back and let your mom have a taste. We're neighbors in the same community, so don't be shy."
Qiaoqiao glanced at her brother, and seeing him nod, she accepted the gift.
"Where's your mom? Why didn't she come out with you two?"
Song Jinchen squatted down in front of them and asked them. He had called a few bodyguards to secretly protect the two children, which is how he knew their every move.
"Mommy went out for a business dinner." Zhouzhou took a bite of the pastry they gave her and said, "It's really delicious! It melts in your mouth and leaves a pleasant aftertaste."
Song Jinchen frowned. "So it'll just be the two of you at home? Aren't you scared? What if a bad guy comes knocking on the door?"
"Um...actually, Grandpa and Grandma live alone too. Would you like to come over to my house?"
"Mommy's best friend moved in today. There are adults in the house, and we're not scared."
Zhouzhou knew they meant well, but Mommy and Daddy weren't really together yet, so it was best to keep some distance from the Song family.
Even if Mommy and Daddy are together, he still likes Grandpa and Grandma very much; they seem quite affectionate.

Around 10 p.m., Nan Xia returned. She had secretly left the private room while Song Yanzhi went to the restroom, because she didn't want to go to a hotel with him.
Even though she had slept with him before, she still felt it was all too sudden.
When she got home, the Lu siblings and their two children were watching TV on the sofa. Zhouzhou greeted her, "Mommy, you're back?"
Qiaoqiao immediately slid off Aunt Qing's lap and ran to her mother's side, hugging her affectionately. She missed her very much and still had a strong dependence on her mother. She didn't want to be separated from her and wanted to stay by her mother's side all the time, but she had to work.
Nanxia picked up her daughter and kissed her fair little face. "Was Qiaoqiao a good girl today?"
She nodded to her mother.
"Qiaoqiao is so great... By the way, did you and your brother go to a friend's house for dinner tonight?" She kissed her daughter again and asked.
Qiao Qiao nodded again.
"Does your friend's mom welcome you?" Nan Xia asked again.
Qiao Qiao nodded again.
"So, how was the food your friend's mom cooked? Did you two eat enough?"
Qiaoqiao nodded again. The food her brother Xiaoyan and her mother cooked was still delicious, and she even looked a lot like her mother. She didn't dislike her at all.
"It's good that you're full." Nan Xia sat down on the sofa with her daughter in her arms. Lu Qinghe, who was next to her, looked at her with concern and asked, "How much did you drink? Do you have any hangover medicine at home?"
“The law firm staff all came to toast me. I couldn’t just drink with one person’s wine and not drink with another’s. We just moved here, and we don’t have any commonly used medicines at home yet,” she said.
Lu Qinghe stood up and made her a cup of tea. He took it to the sofa and sat down. Because it was still very hot, he kept blowing on it to cool it down for her.
"Have some tea first, it'll help sober you up."
"Thank you, just leave it there to cool down slowly, there's no rush." Nanxia was afraid that she wouldn't be able to reciprocate his feelings in the future, so she didn't want him to be nice to her at all.
"It's nothing, I'm just killing time anyway." After blowing on the air a few more times, he asked her hesitantly, "...That guy surnamed Song didn't do anything to you today, did he?"
"Cough...no." Nan Xia paused before answering, not wanting to upset him. She couldn't very well tell him that she and Song Yanzhi had kissed in the men's restroom, could she?
The man nodded, handed her the tea, and she took a few sips. Then she said to her daughter in her arms, "Baby, you watch TV for a while. Mommy is going to take a shower so the smell won't bother you. I'll come back to play with you later."
Qiao Qiao nodded.
After Nan Xia went to her bedroom, Lu Qingya looked at the two siblings and jokingly asked them, "Zhouzhou, do you and your sister want Song Yanzhi as your daddy? Or do you want Uncle Lu as your daddy?"
Zhouzhou looked at Aunt Qing and answered rationally, "Whoever Mommy wants to be with is our Daddy."
Oh right, I haven't told Mommy yet that Daddy got engaged to another woman six years ago, and they even have a child together!
He immediately jumped off the sofa and ran to the master bedroom. Nan Xia was just about to go into the bathroom when she saw her son come in and asked him, "Zhouzhou, what's wrong?"
"Mommy, I have a secret to tell you..." Zhouzhou said, tilting his head back.
"What secret?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
"My biological father got engaged to another woman six years ago. I think her name was... oh, Gu Xiaoxing. I heard she even had a child with my father..."
"I don't know if it's true? Mommy, do you want to check it out?" Zhouzhou said, somewhat annoyed with her father, who originally had a pretty good impression of her.
Upon hearing her son's words, Nanxia unconsciously frowned, feeling an uncontrollable unease in her heart. He had been engaged to another woman? And had a child with her?
"...Who told you that?"
"An uncle surnamed Shen also ate at my friend's house. He seemed to know my dad very well," he said to his mother.
"Okay, I understand. I'll find out." Nanxia patted her son's head.
