Chapter 23 Chapter 23

"How could Uncle Zhong lock you in the room?"

The two sat on the sycamore tree and chatted casually.

Chen Xun curled up the corner of his mouth and lied, "I told him that the senior and I are not suitable, and I don't want to go on a blind date."

Lian Xufeng looked at Chen Xun in surprise.

Chen Xun gently raised his lips and smiled softly, "Why, are you surprised?"

"Well." Lian Xufeng raised his head, "Not really surprised."

"He doesn't deserve you."

Chen Xun shook his head, holding the tree trunk with one hand, looking at the lush greenery in and outside the yard.

"Senior is very good, it's me who is not worthy of him."

"What are you talking about?!" Lian Xufeng said without hesitation, "Don't be too self-deprecating, I watched you grow up, Bai Xiu Ze is not even as good as your toes."

"Pfft." Chen Xun chuckled, "You sound so old."

He swung his legs and looked out with a relaxed expression.

"Older than you." Lian Xufeng laughed.

His eyes were almost glued to Chen Xun.

Since the separation, they were rarely so close.

I don't know when Chen Xun stopped revealing all his emotions and thoughts to him. Although

they still live their lives as usual and Chen Xun is still by his side, Lian Xufeng knows that Chen Xun, who used to tell him everything, has started to have his own "secrets".

They are obviously the best of friends.

But Chen Xun's smile when facing others, even when facing Bai Xiuze, was more cheerful than when facing him.

"What are you looking at?" Chen Xun felt Lian Xufeng's gaze and looked back in confusion.

Lian Xufeng shook his head nervously.

He didn't know why, at this moment, his heart was pounding.

The sun was setting in the west, and Chen Xun was a little sleepy. He leaned his head against the tree trunk, but was held by Lian Xufeng.

"Lean on it."

Chen Xun blushed, but Lian Xufeng covered his shoulders with his warm palm, and he forgot to move for a while.

They just watched the sunset quietly.

The leaves of the sycamore tree fell on their shoulders, and no one noticed.

"Cough cough!"

The sudden cough broke into the quiet space.

Chen Xun raised his head suddenly and met his adoptive father's dark eyes.

"Dad."

"Uncle Zhong." Lian Xufeng jumped down the sycamore tree first, turned around and stretched out his arms to Chen Xun, "Jump, don't be afraid."

Chen Xun looked at his adoptive father in embarrassment.

Uncle Zhong lowered his head and coughed helplessly twice, "Come down first."

"Come down." Lian Xufeng winked at Chen Xun and mouthed, "It's okay, I'm here."

Chen Xun jumped and fell into Lian Xufeng's arms.

Lian Xufeng caught him steadily, put his hands around Chen Xun's waist, and whispered in his ear: "Hey, you have quite a bit of meat on your waist."

Chen Xun subconsciously pushed Lian Xufeng hard, and he quickly walked to Zhong Bo's side, using his father to block his body.

Although the child was only a few months old and would not show his pregnancy at all, Chen Xun was still afraid.

Afraid that Lian Xufeng would see it.

"Hey." Lian Xufeng thought that he was the one who said Chen Xun was fat, which made Chen Xun unhappy, and shook his head in embarrassment.

Uncle Zhong couldn't bear to see them going back and forth like this, so he bowed to Lian Xufeng, "Young Master, I'll take Chen Xun back first."

"Wait." Lian Xufeng stopped Uncle Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, you're not going to lock up Chen Xun again, are you?"

Uncle Zhong raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Xun standing beside him.

Chen Xun pursed his lips, rolled his eyes, and explained quietly, "I didn't say it, he found it."

"Young Master, Chen Xun is my child." Uncle Zhong's tone was cold. He called him Young Master, but he moved his feet and blocked Chen Xun firmly. "How I educate him is my business."

Lian Xufeng crossed his arms and showed dissatisfaction.

Uncle Zhong was an old servant in the family. He had been diligent and caring for many years. He was a person he respected.

But he couldn't agree with Uncle Zhong treating Chen Xun like this.

"Yes, this is a matter between you and your father." Lian Xufeng snorted twice, then smiled cunningly, "But the law stipulates that the freedom of others cannot be imprisoned. Uncle Zhong, your family rules cannot override the law." "

Young Master..."

"Dad." Chen Xun pulled the corner of Uncle Zhong's clothes.

Both of them knew Lian Xufeng's personality very well. If they didn't follow his requirements, this man could really do something outrageous like calling the police to save Chen Xun.

"Okay." After a long while, Uncle Zhong gave in, "I will only take him back and not lock the door. Chen Xun is free to leave or stay."

"That's right." Lian Xufeng smiled and followed the two of them. He walked beside Chen Xun and said to Uncle Zhong on the other side of Chen Xun, "We are all family, so don't torture each other."

Chen Xun glanced at the urge to roll his eyes in his father's eyes, and smiled secretly and exchanged glances with Lian Xufeng.

After sending the two back, Lian Xufeng was still worried, and paced in the yard for most of the day. When Zhongbo finally couldn't stand it anymore, he took a big broom and swept the fallen leaves everywhere, which frightened him and made him jump several times. Only then did he run back to his room helplessly.

Chen Xun was sitting in the living room in the yard making tea. When he saw Lian Xufeng leave, he put away the cup prepared for him.

"What are you going to do?"

Zhongbo walked into the room, sat in front of the tea table, and looked at Chen Xun with a cold face.

Chen Xun's hand that was making tea paused, as if it was scalded, and quickly put down the teacup.

"I..." He hesitated for a moment, and met the concern in his father's cold eyes, "I want to keep him."

Although this child is not the fruit of love, it is his unexpected surprise.

He wants this child more than his own life.

A long sigh echoed in the quiet tea room.

Uncle Zhong stared at the adopted son in front of him and recalled the time when Chen Xun first came to the Lian family.

He didn't like this child very much. He

was born too thin, quiet and didn't like to talk. How could he serve the lively and active young master?

But the young master liked Chen Xun very much.

Chen Xun grew up like this, and under his care, he successfully grew into an excellent Omega.

"Who is he?"

Chen Xun choked. He couldn't say this point in particular.

"You dare to get pregnant, don't you dare to tell me who that person is?!"

There was a little anger in Uncle Zhong's voice, not towards Chen Xun, but towards the instigator who was hidden by Chen Xun.

His child, didn't he know what kind of person Chen Xun was.

Without anyone to deceive him, how could he do such a ridiculous thing!

"I don't know who he is either." Chen Xun gritted his teeth and could only tell a mixture of truth and lies, "We drank happily that day, and when I woke up, he was gone..."

"Then you still want to give birth to this child?!" Zhong Bo was extremely angry, stood up, and made a decision for Chen Xun directly, "Abort it, you can't keep this child!"

"No! No, Dad!" Chen Xun knelt up and grabbed his adoptive father's arm, "I will never like anyone else in my life. This child, since this child is here, he is my child!"

Zhong Bo grabbed Chen Xun's wrist and asked sharply, "Even if I let you leave the young master, would you be willing?!"

Chen Xun was shaking all over.

He knelt on the ground, and his shirt was soaked with sweat.

In order to secretly give birth to this child, he must leave Wei Ming and Lian Xufeng.

Even though he has not found a way to allow him and his child to survive safely, Chen Xun still wants to give it a try.

This is probably the most cautious decision he has ever made in his life.

"I do."
