"Fish? What did you say?"
In the somewhat noisy environment, Xu Zhaozhao did not hear clearly what Gu Yulin said.
All I heard were things like "it's good for me".
Seeing this scene stirred up some unpleasant memories for Gu Yulin.
When Gu Yulin was young, Xu Zhaozhao didn't care about him at all; Gu Yulin was taken care of by nannies and caregivers.
If anyone shows any protectiveness towards Xu Zhaozhao, she will fire them the next second.
Over time, the servants only dared to watch him being beaten by Xu Zhaozhao, and didn't dare to utter a sound.
Aunt Su is also one of the nannies.
But she is different from the others.
When he was being beaten, she would secretly wipe away her tears in a corner and give him medicine.
Gu Yulin learned life skills from her, such as cooking, peeling shrimp and crabs, and washing clothes.
Therefore, Aunt Su has a different meaning to him.
But no one can compare to a mother.
Mom hit him because she was sick. Now that Mom's condition has stabilized, it would be terrible if Aunt Su caused Mom to get hurt...
Gu Yulin's gaze darkened.
Xu Zhaozhao noticed that Gu Yulin tightened his grip on her hand. He turned to look at her, his eyes filled with determination.
"Mom, I'm fine. I misspoke. Aunt Su is getting old and should rest."
Aunt Su is good to him, so he can send her money, but he can't let her show up in front of his mother anymore.
Gu Yulin understood.
He followed Aunt Su to learn things only so that Xu Zhaozhao would pay more attention to him...
The most important thing is Mom.
Xu Zhaozhao reached out and hugged Gu Yulin.
She wasn't unaware of his emotional shift; for a moment, she even wondered if the main villain was about to turn evil.
But instead, he comforted her...
Just how ruthless must the original owner have been to make him turn evil!
Thinking about it, tears welled up in Xu Zhaozhao's eyes and involuntarily slid down her cheeks.
"Sister Zhao Zhao, why did you drop your little pearl?!" Xiao Kai's panicked voice echoed in the restaurant.
The next second, Xu Zhaozhao was "cruelly" pushed away by her son.
Without saying a word, Xia Huai put his hands around her waist and carried her into the car in a princess carry. The two children followed closely behind into the back seat.
The roar of the sports car echoed through the quiet streets at night, eventually disappearing into the Capital People's Hospital.
Before Xu Zhaozhao could stop their series of actions, she was already shoved into the psychological counseling room.
As Xia Huai was leaving, she solemnly said to the doctor, "Doctor, I'm leaving this child in your care. Don't let him get too scared."
doctor:……
Xu Zhaozhao: ...
Click.
The door was closed.
"Okay, let's forget about what just happened and talk about something happy, okay?" The doctor smiled gently.
Since they were already there, and it would only be half an hour, Xu Zhaozhao let them be.
He nodded to the doctor, "Okay."
"Then please recall some happy memories, Miss."
The psychologist flipped through Xu Zhaozhao's file on the table and saw that the spouse status column was filled in as "married".
"Perhaps you could tell me about your sweet married life with your husband."
Xu Zhaozhao: ...
Seemingly sensing Xu Zhaozhao's predicament, he remembered the child who looked seven parts like Xu Zhaozhao.
The therapist changed the subject: "Perhaps you could talk about some fun childhood memories you shared with your child?"
Xu Zhaozhao: ...
In some ways, the psychologist's questions were quite accurate.
In the past half hour, Xu Zhaozhao had barely said a word, mostly just "uh-huh" and "yes".
The doctor opened the door, walked to the side with Xia Huai, and even glanced at Xu Zhaozhao.
"The patient is indeed showing signs of being frightened and is unwilling to open up. Fortunately, his emotions are relatively stable at the moment. Once the memory becomes less vivid after a while, he should be fine."
Doctor, you shouldn't be whispering secrets so late at night. Be more careful!
But when they heard the doctor say that everything was fine, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Xiao Kai even raised his hand and patted his chest.
Xia Huai drove them back, and just as Xu Zhaozhao was about to open the passenger door and get out, Xia Huai stopped her.
She turned her head, and Xia Huai took out a strawberry-flavored lollipop from the carriage and put it in Xu Zhaozhao's hand.
"Don't be afraid, have something sweet."
Xia Huai wasn't worried that this kind of thing would happen a second time.
Everything is under the control of those two people surnamed Gu, and they won't let this happen again.
Xu Zhaozhao hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the lollipop she was given.
Xia Huai gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, staring straight ahead, and said in a low voice, "If you feel unwell, remember to call me. The guy surnamed Gu isn't here, so you can rely on me for now."
“Okay!” Xu Zhaozhao answered crisply.
She got out of the car, took Gu Yulin's hand, who was waiting for her at the door, and slowly walked into the villa.
Xia Huai watched her figure disappear before leaving with Xiao Kai.
The restaurant has been taken care of; apart from the absence of a servant, nothing else has changed.
After taking a shower, Xu Zhaozhao lay in bed scrolling through Weibo and discovered that the photographers who took her portrait photos were incredibly efficient.
That same evening, the photos taken that afternoon were already posted on Weibo.
Is the photography world really that chaotic now?

The official Weibo account posted a nine-grid image, which looks like the original image straight out of the camera, with only minor adjustments to some details.
The only difference between the photoshopped images and those edited by netizens is that Xu Zhaozhao's background in the photo shoot is white light, not golden light.
To harmonize with her outfit and makeup, the photographer ultimately decided to keep the white light.
But Xu Zhaozhao took more than nine photos.
I tapped into the Weibo post, and sure enough, I saw the official account commenting on its own post.

As I scrolled down, I saw comments from other netizens.
Wow, she's a beautiful and serene Guanyin Bodhisattva! Zhao Jie's looks are truly stunning! [Awesome]

These days, even the Buddha statues in temples are being targeted for extortion. I'm speechless. The Buddha is supposed to be saving all sentient beings, while you, a vixen, go seduce your man!
