Chapter 25 This is her son, where should she send him?
Li Mai changed the subject: "Senior, when are you coming back?"
You Huan: "Let's have another week of fun."
"Okay, then have fun."
"Mmm, mwah, I'll bring you something delicious when I get back."
"Mmm-hmm-hmm."
Li Mai hung up the phone and walked towards the secretariat, but didn't see a single person in the corner.
Ji Wangyu had come out for a smoke, but before he could even light one, he heard Li Mai's voice.
He was chatting with a friend.
He didn't like smoking, nor did he want to go out and disturb her, so he planned to wait until she left before going out.
Then I heard Li Mai say that Chengcheng should be placed with Zhou Songyan.
He lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
...
Zhou Songyan paced around in his office chair, turning his phone on and off intermittently.
Sun Yuanjie walked in: "President Zhou, has Chengcheng gone back?"
I haven't seen the little guy come over with President Zhou for several days.
Chengcheng has been at Rongzheng Group for a week and feels that the whole group is bustling with activity.
Zhou Songyan was stunned for a moment, as if the confusion and frustration he had just felt had vanished.
He sat up straight: "What is it?"
Sun Yuanjie handed over a document: "President Zhou, this is your schedule for this week."
"Just leave it there."
After Sun Yuanjie left, Zhou Songyan called Chengcheng.
He has Chengcheng's number.
Chengcheng was at home reading an elementary school textbook.
He casually pressed the answer button: "Uncle."
Zhou Songyan: "What are you doing?"
"Read a book."
"kindergarten?"
"at home."
"Is your aunt not at work today?"
"Go!"
"Then you'll be home alone."
"yes."
Zhou Songyan gasped.
Chengcheng is only four years old, and Limai actually left him alone at home.
"Wait here, I'll be right there to find you."
"Need not."
Before he could finish the last word, Zhou Songyan had already hung up the phone.
Half an hour later, Chengcheng's phone rang again.
"Chengcheng, which building and apartment number do you live in?"
Chengcheng paused for a moment and then said, "Room 602, Building 13."
Mom said she doesn't object to him seeing Dad. He let Dad in. Mom shouldn't be angry, right?
Chengcheng nervously opened the door for Zhou Songyan.
Zhou Songyan entered the room and looked around at the small house, which was not even as big as his bedroom and had old furniture, but was very clean.
A pleasant fragrance wafted in the air.
On the dining table was a glass vase containing several fresh roses.
The small home was decorated to be very cozy.
"Uncle, we don't have any slippers that you can wear."
"It's okay, you don't need to wear it."
Zhou Songyan was very happy.
The absence of men's slippers suggests that men rarely come here.
Li Mai was unaware that Zhou Songyan had already entered her home while she was away.
Chengcheng still reminded Zhou Songyan, "Uncle, don't tell Aunt that I told you the address."
Zhou Songyan smiled and nodded.
"I understand, I won't betray you."
"Uncle, what are you doing at my house?"
"She's worried about you. Why didn't your aunt send you to kindergarten?"
"I don't want to go; kindergarten is boring."
Zhou Songyan understands him because he also didn't like going to kindergarten when he was a child, and he only went a few days a month.
But he had someone to take care of him, and Zhou Jingtian hired a tutor for him, so he was never idle.
It's not safe for Chengcheng to be home alone.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"I've already eaten. My aunt saved some food for me."
"Change your clothes and come with me."
Where to?
Can you swim?
"Won't."
"I'll teach you."
Zhou Songyan took Chengcheng back to Chunfeng Road. Before going back, he made a detour to the supermarket and bought Chengcheng a swimsuit, swim cap, goggles, and some swimming rings and floats suitable for children.
The villas on Chunfeng Road have indoor swimming pools on the third floor.
Chengcheng knows.
...
Li Mai didn't see Chengcheng on the monitor, so she called him.
Zhou Songyan glanced at Chengcheng, who was having a great time playing in the water, and then picked up the phone watch to answer the call.
"Hello."
Li Mai thought she had misheard, so she took her phone away and looked at it. It was indeed Chengcheng calling.
Zhou Songyan's voice came through the phone again: "Chengcheng is with me."
Although Li Mai had come to terms with it, he decided to let the father and son recognize each other when the time was right.
But at this moment, I'm still nervous.
"How did Chengcheng end up with you?"
Zhou Songyan: "Li Mai, if you can't take care of Chengcheng, send him back to his parents. It's too unsafe for him to be alone at home. I wouldn't have known about this if I hadn't called."
Li Mai: "..."
For normal parents, leaving a four-year-old child alone at home is indeed reprehensible.
“I… Chengcheng can take care of himself, he’s fine.”
You believe what a child says?
"Then what can we do? Sending it back is impossible."
This is her son, where should she take him?
Hire a nanny.
She doesn't have enough money right now.
Zhou Songyan said, "I'll hire a nanny for you."
Li Mai was silent for a moment: "Let's talk about this later."
"Mr. Zhou, I'll pick up Chengcheng after get off work in a bit."
"No need, I'll take him back."
...
When Li Mai arrived home, she saw Zhou Songyan sitting casually on her small sofa.
She looked at her son.
Chengcheng felt guilty and didn't dare to look at her.
Li Mai ultimately said nothing.
"Mr. Zhou, thank you for bringing Chengcheng back and for taking care of him."
Zhou Songyan: "Is it enough to just say thank you verbally?"
Li Mai did not respond.
Seeing that she was pretending to be stupid, Zhou Songyan simply said, "I'm hungry. It's not too much to ask to have a meal here, is it?"
What could Li Mai say?
She went into her room, changed into a set of loungewear, and tied her hair up in a bun, revealing her fair and slender swan neck.
Zhou Songyan looked up casually, his throat bobbing twice.
Li Mai walked into the kitchen.
Zhou Songyan's phone rang.
Grandma Zhou's video call.
Zhou Songyan went to the balcony to answer the call.
The balcony is small, and there are quite a few clothes hanging there.
Zhou Songyan was tall and strong; the clothes hanging on his head reached his head.
He peeled it open carelessly.
With a swipe of the finger, Grandma Zhou's face appeared in the video.
"My grandson, where are you... Oh!"
Grandma Zhou opened her mouth wide and her eyes widened.
"What...what is that?"
She seemed to have seen something extraordinary.
Zhou Songyan turned around suspiciously, and his face bumped into something.
A white bra.
oh……
The atmosphere was awkward.
When Li Mai came out of the kitchen, she saw Zhou Songyan's face in close contact with her underwear. She screamed, rushed over, grabbed the underwear, and ran back to the room.
