Xia Zhichu didn't want Si Mochen to make a mistake for her. After all, he was a powerful man and they couldn't afford to offend him.
Si Mochen gritted his teeth and asked, "Have you taken a shower?"
Xia Zhichu hummed, "I washed it from head to toe. I washed my hands ten times with hand sanitizer and disinfected my whole body."
Si Mochen's complexion improved a lot.
Xia Zhichu tried to comfort the man a few more times, but Si Mochen was very petty, and nothing she said could dispel his anger. Xia Zhichu had no other choice but to coax him gently, "Don't be angry, let me sing a song for you."
Si Mochen raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
Before he could speak, Xia Zhichu's soft singing voice came from the microphone.
Si Mochen was stunned.
This song is surprisingly familiar.
It was as if I had heard it countless times before, and it lingered in my ears for a long time.
After Xia Zhichu finished singing, Si Mochen asked, "Where did you learn this?"
Even though he has grown up and his mother has passed away for more than 20 years, Si Mochen still can't forget the song his mother once sang for him.
I didn’t expect that Xia Zhichu could sing, and she sang as beautifully as her mother.
Xia Zhichu said, "You sang it to me before, and I remembered it."
Si Mochen couldn't remember his previous memories, so he didn't know when he had ever sung to Xia Zhichu.
However, the song made him feel warm, as if his mother was still by his side.
Si Mochen said calmly, "Sing it again."
Xia Zhichu nodded and sang over and over again.
As a result, Si Mochen didn't fall asleep while listening to the song, but Xia Zhichu fell asleep while singing.
Si Mochen shouted several times into the microphone but didn't hear Xia Zhichu's voice. Worried that something had happened, he quickly called the bodyguard to inquire about the situation.
After the bodyguard came over to check, he reported to Si Mochen, "Madam has fallen asleep."
Si Mochen: “…”
Si Mochen hung up the phone without letting the bodyguard disturb Xia Zhichu, but Xia Zhichu's singing was still lingering in his heart.
Early the next morning.
Xia Zhichu woke up at her standard biological clock, and was shocked when she realized that she had fallen asleep while singing last night.
Xia Zhichu turned over and got up, then went to the bathroom to wash up briefly. However, while brushing his teeth, he felt nauseous and started to dry heave, holding his chest.
Xia Zhichu felt that she must have been too tired recently, which was why she was sleepy and easily tired.
Without thinking too much, Xia Zhichu went to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast.
It was still early and the child had not woken up yet. Xia Zhichu filled a thermos with meat porridge and rushed to the medical room, thinking that he would come back later to take care of the child and have breakfast before going to school.
As a result, as soon as I stepped out of the house, I saw Si Guangxu standing outside the villa gate from a distance.
Xia Zhichu was slightly stunned. He did not expect Si Guangxu to appear.
He had obviously been there for a long time, his hair was a little messy from the wind, and his eyes were stained with a faint red bloodshot.
Xia Zhichu stepped forward and said, "Uncle Si, why are you here?" The child had not woken up yet and could not be seen at all at the moment.
Si Guangxu said, "I came to see Xiaochen. Can you take me to see him?"
Last night, Si Guangxu had a dream. He dreamed of Xiaochen's mother. In the dream, she kept blaming him, saying that Xiaochen was injured and as a father he didn't visit him, and also scolded him for being incompetent.
After Si Guangxu woke up from his dream, he couldn't fall asleep again, so he ran to the outside of the villa in the middle of the night and waited until now.
Xia Zhichu said, "Of course, please come in."
This is Si Mochen's father. How could Xia Zhichu refuse his wish to see his son?
After opening the door and letting Si Guangxu in, Xia Zhichu took him to the medical room.
Si Mochen had already woken up at this time. The moment he saw Xia Zhichu, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
But after seeing Si Guangxu behind him, the light in his eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by indifference.
Xia Zhichu explained, "Uncle heard that you were injured and came to see you." After that, Xia Zhichu came in, put the thermos aside, and took the initiative to leave, leaving space for the father and son to talk.
After Xia Zhichu left, the atmosphere became extremely depressing.
Si Guangxu walked in without saying a word.
Si Mochen looked at his father indifferently and remained silent.
Finally, it was Si Guangxu who spoke first. "I heard that you were splashed with sulfuric acid. How are your injuries?"
Si Mochen responded coldly, "It's just a minor injury, don't worry about it, father."
The tone of rejection makes people feel that these two people are not father and son, but enemies.
Si Guangxu couldn't hold back his expression, and his whole body trembled a few times, but he calmed down and said, "I'm glad you're okay. Your mother came to me in a dream last night and asked me to come and see you. Now that you seem to be safe and sound, I can reply to your mother in my dream later."
Talking about his mother, Si Mochen's face turned even uglier. Unable to suppress his temper, he yelled at Si Guangxu, "Don't mention my mother, you have no right!"
The death of his mother has always been the biggest trauma in Si Mochen's heart.
Not only was Si Guangxu unable to protect his mother, but he also found a new love shortly after his mother's death. This planted the seeds of hatred in the young Si Mochen, and he was unable to get along peacefully with Si Guangxu.
Every time the father and son meet, they are as incompatible as ice and fire.
Although they haven't seen each other much in recent years, the hatred is deeply rooted in their hearts, and whenever they meet, they will inevitably glare at each other.
Xia Zhichu did not leave, but stood at the door and listened.
When she heard Si Mochen's furious voice, she clenched her fists nervously and almost couldn't control herself and rushed in to mediate the relationship.
However, just as she took a step, An Yunxiang suddenly appeared and stopped her, "Sister-in-law, don't go in. No one can calm Mo Chen's anger at this moment. His hatred for the Si family is too deep. Even if everyone has forgotten these grudges and hatreds, Mo Chen still remembers them clearly in his heart."
Xia Zhichu said, "But Uncle Si also had his own reasons back then. Si Mochen should listen to Uncle Si's explanation."
An Yunxiang shook his head. "What explanation? Explain that Si Guangxu was incompetent, which led to the tragic death of Mo Chen's mother? Or explain that the reason Si Guangxu married Chen Qin was because someone tricked him into giving birth to Si Yunxiao. In order to protect Si Mochen's status in the Si family, he had to remarry before Mo Chen's mother's ashes were cold?"
"Mo Chen actually knows all this, but he still can't forgive Si Guangxu. Sister-in-law, do you know why?"
Xia Zhichu shook his head in confusion.
An Yunxiang continued, "In fact, in Mo Chen's heart, what he wants is not wealth and glory, but a complete family."
Having known Si Mochen for so many years, An Yunxiang knows him too well.
This is a man who is extremely lacking in love, so when he met Xia Zhichu, he couldn't wait to marry her.
Because he felt insecure, because he didn't want to be controlled by the Si family and become a puppet, and he didn't want to be the same as Si Guangxu, so he chose Xia Zhichu, who had an ordinary family background.
Xia Zhichu couldn't calm down. It turned out that Si Mochen had already known the truth. The reason why he was so brooding over it and refused to let it go was because he could not accept Si Guangxu's self-righteous efforts.
