Chapter 580: Changes in Near and Far
Cheng Xuyuan knew very well that this seemed like a simple question, but it was really hard to answer.
You took a holiday to see your children, but that means you still have feelings for your ex-wife.
But if I answer that I won’t watch it, I won’t be able to get over this hurdle in my heart.
After all, the child is your own.
Although Shen Yumo used some means and concealed some things during the childbirth process.
But this cannot change the fact that the child is yours.
So after a brief hesitation, Cheng Xuyuan finally said, "I plan to go there before the New Year and stay with the child for a few days."
"After all, I am the father of the child."
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's answer, Fang Gengsheng, who was sitting on the chair, nodded and said, "Xuyuan, then go ahead."
"But I hope you're just babysitting."
Fang Gengsheng is Fang Yuqing's father, so in this matter, he naturally protects Fang Yuqing.
He was willing to let Cheng Xuyuan go to Donghai, but he would never allow Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo to have any connection.
Cheng Xuyuan nodded and said, "Uncle Fang, I know what to do."
"Xuyuan, the last time I heard you say that in the future, satellites in the sky will really be able to clearly see everything on the ground..."
Cheng Xuyuan felt relieved when he heard Fang Gengsheng change the topic to the issues he had discussed with him in the past.
Fang Gengsheng was able to do this, which meant that he would not mention the matter between him and Shen Yumo for the time being.
To be honest, Cheng Xuyuan still had a lot of respect for Fang Gengsheng in his heart. Now that he didn't talk about this matter, Cheng Xuyuan felt a lot more relieved.
In the past, Cheng Xuyuan was somewhat restrained when talking about some things.
So as to avoid revealing too much about your origins.
Now, he was ready to say more so that Fang Gengsheng would not have time to criticize him.
So I began to slowly tell him what I had prepared.
Although someone was cooking downstairs, almost everyone was listening attentively to the noise coming from upstairs.
Especially Fang Yuqing. Although her father promised her that he would not make things too difficult for Cheng Xuyuan, she was still very worried. If her father could not hold back and did something to Cheng Xuyuan...
However, as time passed, the study remained very quiet, which surprised Fang Yuqing.
She knew Fang Gengsheng's temper. Once he got angry, he would never give up.
But now, my father's voice is not loud, this...
Just as all kinds of thoughts were surging in her mind, Fang Yuning suddenly asked, "Want to go and take a look?"
Fang Yuqing glared at her sister and said, "Your question is really not very polite."
Why don't I want to go and have a look, but can I go?
Just as Fang Yuqing's eyes were full of thoughts, she heard Fang Yuning say, "Go get a glass of water. They've been talking for so long, shouldn't they drink some water?"
Hearing this reminder, Fang Yuqing immediately became happy.
How could she have forgotten such a small thing? She was delighted and hurriedly said, "Sister, thank you."
"I'm doing this for you, not for Cheng Xuyuan. I'm telling you, you have to keep an eye on this guy Cheng Xuyuan."
"We can't let him..."
Fang Yuqing really didn't care about her sister's nagging.
She hurriedly said, "Thank you, sister. I will pay attention."
As he spoke, he picked up the kettle and walked towards the living room.
Looking at the hurried Fang Yuqing, Fang Yuning couldn't help but sigh: "Mom, Yuqing's personality is so different from mine."
"If she were half as good as I am, she'd be..."
Fang Yuning didn’t say what it was, but looked at Qin Wenhui.
Qin Wenhui was serving dishes at this time. When Fang Yuning glanced at him, a look of grievance immediately appeared on his face.
Who did I offend? I'm just serving dishes, but I still can't live in peace.
But on the surface, he still smiled at Fang Yuning obediently.
Fang Yuning looked at her husband's appearance and didn't say much.
In just a few minutes, Fang Yuqing came out.
Looking at Fang Yuqing with a smile on her face, Fang Yuning asked, "What did our father and Cheng Xuyuan talk about?"
"It seems like he's talking about...something about positioning, I don't really understand."
Fang Yuqing said, "Mom, my dad said we have to wait a while for dinner, so don't worry."
Seeing Fang Yuqing's beaming face, Qin Wenhui felt curious.
He knew Fang Gengsheng's character.
How much magic did Cheng Xuyuan give to his father-in-law to make him let him go so easily?
Meng Fanjin waved the spatula in his hand and said, "Tell your dad to eat early, as he has something else to do this afternoon."
Fang Yuqing actually wanted to eat earlier, after all, this would allow Cheng Xuyuan to be relieved sooner.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Cheng Xuyuan ate this meal as if it were no different from any other time.
But he could feel something strange while eating this meal.
But this is normal. After something like this happens, it is not easy for him to quickly return to normal.
After dinner, everyone prepared to go about their own business.
Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing walked out of the Fang family's door together. Seeing that there was no one around, Fang Yuqing asked in a low voice: "My dad didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "No, your dad just talked to me about some work matters."
Fang Yuqing didn't believe Cheng Xuyuan's answer.
She said in a deep voice: "Did my dad really just tell you about work?"
Cheng Xuyuan said: "Most of them, and he also asked me if I would go see Xiao An'an during the New Year holiday?"
Fang Yuqing was stunned for a moment when she heard this question, then asked, "What did you say?"
"I said I was going to go over and see the child. After all, I am his father." Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment and then told the truth.
At this time, all he could do was tell the truth.
Fang Yuqing looked at Cheng Xuyuan, and after a slight hesitation, she said, "I also think that you should go see Xiao An'an."
"After all, you can't just give money to raise a child."
"By the way, when are you planning to go over?"
Looking at Fang Yuqing's appearance, Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm going to leave the day after tomorrow. If you are free, why don't you go to the East China Sea with me?"
"Meet little An An too."
Fang Yuqing didn't expect that Cheng Xuyuan would actually suggest that she go to the East China Sea.
While she was surprised, countless thoughts flashed through her mind.
But in the end, she still smiled and said, "I have a lot of things to do during the New Year this year. I won't go to the East China Sea with you."
"Let's wait until next summer. I'll go see Xiao An An."
At this point, she leaned towards Cheng Xuyuan and said, "I'm telling you, you can go to the East China Sea this time, but you can't rekindle your old relationship with Shen Yumo."
As she spoke, she waved her fist.
Looking at the lovely Fang Yuqing, Cheng Xuyuan's heart softened.
He gently pinched Fang Yuqing's wrist and said, "Don't worry, I will never be indecisive. I can promise you that."
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan's face, Fang Yuqing suddenly hugged Cheng Xuyuan and gave him a quick kiss on the face.
Although there was no one around at this time, we were in the staff housing compound in Shijingshan after all.
After kissing Cheng Xuyuan, Fang Yuqing quickly stepped back, but her face was red at this time.
Looking at Fang Yuqing's appearance, Cheng Xuyuan felt more and more excited.
He came to Fang Yuqing gently and said, "I'm leaving Yanjing to go back to my hometown. Why don't you come with me to buy some things?"
Cheng Xuyuan's words were soft and gentle, but Fang Yuqing's face became even redder.
She knew very well in her heart that this time, Cheng Xuyuan definitely didn't just want her to help buy some things.
But Fang Yuqing, with a thought flashing through her mind, nodded involuntarily.
The two of them got in the car together and drove quickly towards the Overseas Chinese Apartment...
Three days later, Cheng Xuyuan walked out of Donghai Airport carrying his luggage.
Because Fang Yuqing felt that taking the train was too tiring, she asked her brother-in-law Qin Wenhui to help her book a plane ticket for Cheng Xuyuan to Donghai.
At this time of year, most people don't take planes because there are few flights and air tickets are expensive.
Of course, not being able to buy air tickets is another factor.
It is difficult for ordinary people to buy air tickets without a letter of introduction.
After coming out of the airport, Cheng Xuyuan took a bus for more than half an hour before arriving at Shen Yumo's residence.
Before coming, Cheng Xuyuan had already spoken to Shen Yumo on the phone, so it was not presumptuous to visit.
Looking at the closed door, Cheng Xuyuan knocked heavily several times with his hands.
In just half a minute, the door opened from the inside, and Li Yufei, wearing comfortable home clothes, walked out.
Seeing Cheng Xuyuan, a trace of disgust appeared on her face: "Who did I think it was? Turns out it's you!"
After hearing what Li Yufei said, Cheng Xuyuan really wanted to say, "I bought the house, why can't it be mine?"
But he knew that this was not the time to compete with Li Yufei, so he just smiled faintly at Li Yufei, without saying much, and just walked into the house with his luggage.
Li Yufei looked at Cheng Xuyuan who ignored her. Although she was angry, she could do nothing about it.
After all, this was bought by Cheng Xuyuan.
Although Shen Yumo lives there, she is not the owner.
Just as I walked to the door, I heard Shen Yumo say, "Yufei, what's the matter?"
Before Li Yufei could speak, Cheng Xuyuan had already reached out to little An An who was learning to walk in the room and said, "An An, come to Daddy."
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's call, Xiao Anan looked in the direction of Cheng Xuyuan.
Then, he staggered towards Cheng Xuyuan.
Shen Yumo didn't have time to greet Cheng Xuyuan at this time. She quickly protected Xiao Anan from behind, fearing that her little baby would fall down if she wasn't careful.
Finally, little An An rushed to Cheng Xuyuan and was picked up by Cheng Xuyuan.
Although this process only took a few tens of seconds, to Shen Yumo who was protecting him, it seemed like dozens of minutes had passed in an instant.
Looking at his son who was lifted up by Cheng Xuyuan, Shen Yumo asked, "You...you should be careful, don't fall."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay."
His son's giggle made Cheng Xuyuan feel extremely happy.
After Xiao Anan had laughed enough, she put him back on the sofa.
Shen Yumo poured a glass of water for Cheng Xuyuan and said casually, "Didn't I tell you? You don't have to come over."
“We are all ready for the New Year.”
"Don't worry about anything."
Cheng Xuyuan teased his son while casually saying, "It's New Year's Day. If I don't come, An An will definitely blame me in the future."
As soon as he said this, Li Yufei snorted and said, "Oh, he is really a good father."
"I don't know, I thought..."
Before Li Yufei could finish her words, Shen Yumo glared at her and said, "Li Yufei, if you want to live here, stop being so sarcastic."
Seeing her angry sister, Li Yufei was a brave man and refused to suffer a loss.
She chuckled and said, "Sister, I'm just telling the truth."
"If Cheng Xuyuan doesn't want to listen, I won't say anything."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the smiling Li Yufei and couldn't help but said, "Li Yufei, I really didn't realize that you have become so shameless."
"you……"
"What are you talking about? I'm telling you, what I become has nothing to do with you."
Li Yufei didn't wait for Cheng Xuyuan to finish speaking, and looked at Cheng Xuyuan angrily and said.
Cheng Xuyuan didn't have the heart to argue with Li Yufei. He glanced at Li Yufei indifferently and stopped talking.
"Xuyuan, are you staying here today or..." Shen Yumo didn't want to see her sister and Cheng Xuyuan arguing at this time, so she changed the subject directly.
Cheng Xuyuan glanced around and said casually, "I contacted Director Xie when I came here and talked to him about the new script."
"He arranged a place for me to stay in the guesthouse of Shanghai Film Studio."
"Come pick me up at dinner time."
When Cheng Xuyuan came to Donghai, he naturally hoped to spend more time with Xiao Anan.
But now, he and Shen Yumo are divorced.
As for him coming to see his son, Fang Yuqing and the Fang family agreed to let him come.
But it would be a bit unreasonable if he lived with Shen Yumo while taking care of the child.
Although he bought this place, it is very spacious.
But if he lives here, it will be embarrassing for the Fang family and Fang Yuqing.
When Cheng Xuyuan came, Li Yufei absolutely didn't want him to live here.
After all, it’s really hard to say that Cheng Xuyuan lives here.
But at this time, when he heard that Cheng Xuyuan was going to stay at the guesthouse of Shanghai Film Studio, he snorted and said, "Is it Director Xie who is looking for you, or is it that you don't dare to live here? Do you think you need to explain?"
Shen Yumo also knew that Cheng Xuyuan was not suitable to live here at the moment, but when she heard Cheng Xuyuan say that he lived in the guesthouse of Shanghai Film Studio, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, Cheng Xuyuan lived here in the past, which made her feel at home.
But now, she is going to lose even this feeling.
But she also knew in her heart that Cheng Xuyuan did this for the good of both of them.
So she smiled and said, "The guesthouse of Shanghai Film Studio is not far from here, and the conditions are very good. It's just right for you to live there, Xuyuan."
At this point, Shen Yumo deliberately changed the subject and said, "I heard from Yufei that you plan to stay on campus for an internship?"
"Yes, I think I can study for two more years." Cheng Xuyuan actually didn't want to dwell on where he would live.
Hearing Shen Yumo's words, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Yumo said: "Actually, it would be good for you to stay at Yanda as a teacher."
"Not only is the salary high, but the social status is also high, and it won't interfere with your writing."
Li Yufei saw two people talking about work, snorted, and turned away.
She felt that both her sister and Cheng Xuyuan were being somewhat hypocritical at this moment.
She had no intention of listening to the two of them continue to perform like this.
I don’t know if it was because he was tired from playing, but little An An fell asleep in Cheng Xuyuan’s arms while listening to his parents’ conversation.
Holding his chubby son, Cheng Xuyuan's eyes became a little softer.
"Put An An on the bed to sleep." Seeing that Cheng Xuyuan was a little tired from holding her, Shen Yumo said softly.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll hold him for a while longer."
Shen Yumo did not force Cheng Xuyuan to insist.
She casually asked Cheng Xuyuan: "Is this matter really over?"
Shen Yumo didn't say it explicitly, but Cheng Xuyuan knew very well what she was talking about.
He said calmly: "It's really over."
"Fang Yuqing said that she is a little busy during the Chinese New Year, so she and I will come over to see An An during next summer vacation."
When Shen Yumo heard this, she really wanted to say that An An didn't want to be seen by Fang Yuqing, but in the end she didn't say it.
If Fang Yuqing and Cheng Xuyuan become a family, then she will be Xiao Anan's stepmother.
Although they didn't live together, she couldn't stop Fang Yuqing if she came to visit.
"Okay, I'll treat you to a good meal when you come." Shen Yumo glanced around as he spoke, then said calmly, "With her here, you don't have to live at the Shanghai Film Studio anymore."
There is an obvious sour taste in this sentence.
Cheng Xuyuan pretended not to understand what Shen Yumo said. He smiled and said, "How is your mother?"
"What else can we do?" Shen Yumo said, "My mother is unwilling to accept this, but I told her that it's impossible for the two of us to be together, so I told her to stop messing around."
"She did this for my own good."
Cheng Xuyuan nodded, agreeing with what Shen Yumo said.
The two of them sat and chatted, time passed little by little, and looking at the sky outside which was beginning to get a little dark, Cheng Xuyuan suddenly asked: "How are you now?"
Shen Yumo was stunned when he heard this question.
But suddenly, she understood what Cheng Xuyuan meant.
Seeing Cheng Xuyuan's calm expression, Shen Yumo suppressed his emotions and tried to act as calm as possible, saying, "It's fine. Yian introduced me to some of her friends recently."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the calm Shen Yumo and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Just then, a car horn sounded outside the door.
Cheng Xuyuan handed Xiao An'an to Shen Yumo and said, "I'll go over and take a look."
Just a minute later, Cheng Xuyuan came over and said, "Yu Mo, Director Xie has sent someone to pick me up. I'm leaving first."
"Tell An An that I'll come over to play with him tomorrow morning."
"If you don't have any other plans, why don't we take An An to the park or somewhere else tomorrow?"
Shen Yumo nodded and said, "Okay, we'll wait for you tomorrow."
The two of them exchanged a few words, and Cheng Xuyuan took the bag containing his luggage and left quickly.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan leaving, a trace of melancholy flashed in Shen Yumo's eyes.
At this moment, she felt that the distance between her and Cheng Xuyuan seemed to have become farther.
