Chapter 484: The cordon between them
Xiao Beisheng suddenly stiffened.
The hand gripping the steering wheel tightened slightly, but the voice was unusually calm and composed:
"Not bad. I dabble in some Western musical instruments."
"Gu Ziheng said you're very good at playing the piano. From the age of four, a British piano teacher came to your home every week to give you lessons. Growing up, you've won many championships in performances and competitions. In middle and high school, you even volunteered to perform for audiences in cathedrals."
Xiao Beisheng looked towards the distant road and said in a deep voice, "Those were all things that happened a long time ago."
"But I've never seen you play the piano, not even when I...married you."
"I haven't played the piano since college."
"Why?"
Su Man raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Beisheng in confusion, her clear eyes washed by tears were full of earnestness.
At this time, we encountered a red light.
Xiao Beisheng stopped the car, turned his head, and met Su Man's eyes. "Because Luo Yan doesn't like it."
The indifferent words were like a sword that was suddenly drawn, sharp and cold, warning Su Man that there was no need to delve into the matter further.
Su Man's throat choked.
She had thought of many answers, but not this one.
The tingling sensation in my heart became more and more obvious.
She smiled bitterly, "I see. You've done a lot for her, and you've both done a lot for each other."
Xiao Beisheng didn't say anything else.
The red light turned green and the car started again.
When Su Man got off the car back at Manyuan, the tears on her face had dried. After wiping away her tears, she was the same tenacious Su Man again.
Standing by the car, watching Xiao Beisheng drive away, she remained reserved and proper from beginning to end.
He put up a cordon between them and did not want to talk about it further when Suman asked him about it.
Anyone with a little common sense would know that it is time to stop.
When Ye Ling returned home and saw Su Man, she breathed a sigh of relief:
"I didn't see you coming back so late. I thought you were going on a business trip for a long time, just like last time, without telling me in advance."
"I won't do that anymore. If I have a tour next time, I will definitely tell you in advance." Su Man forced a smile.
The so-called "business trip" was actually being locked up by Xiao Beisheng.
Now Xiao Beisheng has agreed that he will no longer harass or embarrass Su Man, and such a situation will certainly not happen again in the future.
Ye Ling added, "Let's go check on Doudou. I can't see you, but you refuse to go to sleep. In fact, you've been extremely sleepy for a long time and you keep yawning."
Su Man felt distressed.
She sniffed herself to make sure there wasn't much alcohol on her before going to the baby's room to see Doudou.
As soon as Doudou saw Suman, she kicked her little feet excitedly.
The small toys in the baby's crib were making a clanging sound when he kicked them.
“Numb—Numb—”
The pink and tender little lips opened and closed, making a babbling sound.
Now he can call mom very smoothly.
Su Man picked up Doudou, held him in her arms, rubbed her face against Doudou's, and buried her head in his little belly, making Doudou giggle.
As the child laughed, he yawned.
Very cute.
Her big watery eyes blinked as she looked at Suman, revealing a child's natural attachment to her.
"Little fool, just sleep if you are tired. Why are you looking at me like that?" Su Man teased him.
"Beibei."
"Um?"
"Beep, beep."
"Doudou, what are you talking about?"
"Dad, dad!" This time it was a little more standard, with a strong "Dad" meaning.
Su Man was happy.
"Sister Ye Ling, he can call me daddy now! Did you teach him?"
"Oh, it's not me, absolutely not." Ye Ling immediately waved her hands in denial, "Every day I just teach him to recognize small animals and look at flowers and plants. It can't be me."
Ye Ling thought to herself: There is no male owner in this family. I am teaching the child to call him dad. Do I think this job is too long?
If it were another hostess, her face would have changed by now.
But Su Man doesn't look like she minds it. Instead, she seems very happy. How heartless.
Su Man teased the child: "Doudou, call dad again. Dad—Dad."
"Beibei."
Doudou returned to his original form and his pronunciation was not standard.
Su Man taught it several times, but Doudou was still the same, calling "Beibei" and "Beibei".
Ye Ling recalled something, "It seems that Doudou has been calling me that since Mr. Xiao came last time. I didn't think of the word 'Dad' at first."
Speaking of this, Su Man's expression paused slightly.
Xiao Beisheng had the opportunity to contact Doudou when Chen Ma was fired and he visited her frequently.
"Has he seen Doudou?" Su Man asked.
"At that time, you didn't want to see the child, so he went to the nursery to look after the child. It was strange, too. He didn't even know how to hold a baby at first, so I had to teach him. But as soon as he held Doudou, Doudou stopped crying and making a fuss. During that time, I went to cook for you, and I don't know what he said to Doudou."
In Ye Ling's opinion, Xiao Beisheng is Su Man's suitor.
Teaching Doudou to call dad is the most normal thought of a lover.
Su Man found it incredible:
Xiao Beisheng taught Doudou to call Beibei?
This is not like Xiao Beisheng's style. He only lets Doudou call him dad.
But in Xiao Beisheng's opinion, Doudou is Qiao Shiyan's child, and asking Doudou to call him dad is too bad of a taste.
But Doudou’s pronunciation was not correct yet, and he called “Dad” as “Beibei”, which made him seem like he was one generation younger.
Su Man’s mind emerged the scene where Xiao Beisheng taught Doudou to call dad, but Doudou insisted on calling him Beibei, and Xiao Beisheng’s expression.
She was a little amused and helpless.
But then she thought about what happened tonight, and her mood visibly plummeted to the bottom.
Seeing that Su Man's face was not right, Ye Ling shut her mouth tactfully.
When the two came to their senses, Doudou had already fallen asleep in Suman's arms.
At night, Suman took a shower and lay down on the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep.
There was something she couldn't figure out.
If Xiao Beisheng is the piano boy she had an appointment with, then Fang Zhiming is an imposter.
Su Man mentioned this matter to Xiao Beisheng.
When Xiao Beisheng heard that Su Man and Fang Zhiming had recognized each other, his reaction was indeed a bit extreme.
The fact that he seemed to care so much indirectly proved that he was most likely the one who had an agreement with Suman.
But if that’s the case, why doesn’t Xiao Beisheng take the opportunity to confront Su Man?
Don't want to admit that you are that person?
Is it that he doesn't want to recognize Su Man, or is it that he has already let go of that past and it doesn't matter whether he admits it or not.
…
the next day.
Su Man went to the dance troupe rehearsal with dark circles under her eyes.
The colleague who had introduced Suman to someone came over and asked Suman how her last blind date went.
Su Man smiled awkwardly.
At this time, she felt depressed again. Xiao Beicheng clearly didn't want to continue having a relationship with her, but he still had to interfere in her personal life and make her emotional life a mess.
Why did he do that?
Suman finished the day's rehearsal in a daze.
After getting off work, she still has to go to the studio to teach classes in the evening.
When she arrived at the studio, the first news Su Man received was Fang Zhiming's resignation letter.
