Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1300 - 1299: Let Me Tell You a Story

Xiao Zhen couldn’t understand any of it, but as if driven by some unseen force, he stepped into the hospital room. Mengmeng was covering her face, laying her head on the pillow, and small sobs came from the pillow.

Although Mengmeng was just a small bundle, even Xiao Zhen couldn’t help wanting to hold her. Despite crying, little Mengmeng kept saying, "Mengmeng is Mommy’s best treasure, Mengmeng is the most obedient child in the world, Mengmeng can’t cry, if Mengmeng cries, Mommy will worry. Mommy is working very hard to earn money for me, I have to be good, I have to be obedient so Mommy can be at ease."

"I won’t cry, I’ll just cry for a while, then I’ll be fine. I mustn’t let the nurse sister see, if the nurse sister sees, she’ll tell Mommy. Mengmeng, be good, don’t cry, you are the best child!"

Xiao Zhen stood frozen, not knowing what to do, only feeling an immense pain in his heart. This was just a child, yet she had thought of countless ways to comfort herself and make herself be good.

Watching the child’s trembling body, Xiao Zhen couldn’t bear it anymore, so he carefully picked Mengmeng up, but Mengmeng immediately leapt up.

Seeing the strange uncle she hadn’t seen before, Mengmeng was extremely frightened, rubbed her eyes, and backed up a little bit.

"Uncle, what are you trying to do?"

"I really don’t know you, you better not bully me, and the nurse sister will be back soon. I advise you to leave quickly."

After Mengmeng finished speaking, Xiao Zhen shook his head and instead pulled a chair over to sit by the bed, "Mengmeng, what’s the matter? Why are you crying so much? Is it because you miss Mommy too much? Uncle means no harm, he just wants to play with you for a while."

Upon hearing this, Mengmeng was full of caution, because Mommy had told her that bad people can’t be seen on the surface. So Mengmeng pouted, not wanting to get close at all, but slowly she couldn’t help but inch closer as she listened to Xiao Zhen’s storytelling.

After Xiao Zhen finished, Mengmeng clapped her hands, "Wow, Uncle, your story is really great, Mengmeng never heard such a great story before."

Xiao Zhen didn’t expect that by just telling a little story, this little girl would be this happy, and he’d never told a story to a child before. Was it really that good?

He couldn’t help but doubt whether he was a good storyteller, and at this moment, Mengmeng hung her head, "Before, I asked many times for Daddy to tell me a story, but Daddy never did. This time it was you who told me. From now on, Mengmeng no longer has a Daddy, but Mengmeng can’t say this in front of Mommy, Mommy would be sad and feel Mengmeng is being ungrateful. But Mengmeng also wants to be like other kids and have a Daddy."

When Xiao Zhen heard Mengmeng say this, he suddenly didn’t know how to comfort the little girl, so he simply stroked her hair.

"Child, you must know, separation between adults is always a helpless thing, so don’t let it weigh on your heart. You must grow up happy and let go of adult matters."

Upon hearing this, Mengmeng looked up and gave the uncle a surprise glance, "I didn’t expect uncle thinks this way too. Actually, Mengmeng thinks this way too. Mommy and Daddy weren’t happy together, so Mengmeng can’t force Mommy and Daddy to be together, this way Mommy won’t be happy, and if Mommy isn’t happy, then I’m not happy."

Listening to this child, so understanding and clear-thinking, Xiao Zhen couldn’t believe it, she was only six years old. Thinking of that composed woman, he shook his head with a smile.

If that woman’s teaching wouldn’t be this way, though very fond of the child, Xiao Zhen knew she was not his child.

So he could only get up, seeing Mengmeng’s expectant eyes, even though his heart was reluctant, "Mengmeng, uncle has things to do, he will come and see you another day, so Mengmeng must be good, okay?"

Mengmeng nodded earnestly, watched the uncle leave; this uncle truly was a good person, it had been a long time since anyone talked with her.

Next time, she had to tell Mommy.

At this moment, Zhang Shuai, who had been waiting outside the door, felt immense regret. Despite crouching here, seeing his ex-wife, he immediately went up to her.

He hadn’t expected that after separating from him, his ex-wife would become so successful, now the Finance Department Director at Xiao Group, although she replaced his position, the brilliance of his ex-wife was truly profound. If he had known, he wouldn’t have divorced her.

Even though he now regretted it a lot, it was irrevocable. But Zhang Shuai was unwilling to give up, so he blocked Zhu Ya’s path. Zhu Ya, looking at this disheveled man, couldn’t believe he was her ex-husband, she frowned.

"We have been separated for a long time now, and already divorced. Back then your mother said she didn’t want the child, now what are you doing here? I hope you won’t bother me anymore."

Zhang Shuai was very dissatisfied, looking at this woman who used to comply with everything, now what happened?

He extended his hand, and Zhu Ya looked at his hand and sneered, "What, you want to hit me again? Let me tell you, Zhang Shuai, now you hit as hard as you like, as long as you can afford the compensation, hit my face as hard as you want, did you hear?"

"Before, I endured you for the child, let me tell you Zhang Shuai, now I absolutely won’t endure you."

Zhang Shuai withdrew his hand and regretted secretly, now desperate to reconcile with this woman, he’d discarded his self-respect, how could he move to hit her? Thinking of this, he immediately pulled his hand back.

"Zhu Ya, listen to me, I was indeed wrong before, I hope you will give me another chance. I will definitely correct it, and I will be a good father and husband, let you feel the happiness you deserve, please, and Mom, she’s been sick for a long time, she’s been talking about you. Could you bear seeing the old lady like this?"

Zhang Shuai thought that Zhu Ya, such a filial daughter-in-law, would certainly think about his mother. But after he finished speaking, Zhu Ya pushed him hard.

"You just step aside, before when I treated your mom well, she never gave me a good face, now what’s the point in saying this?"

After Zhu Ya finished speaking, she walked away without caring about the man behind her, while Zhang Shuai’s face turned dark, he had not expected this woman’s heart to be so ruthless now, entirely heartless, whatever he said seemed unlikely to move her, and maybe she’d really get anxious.

But considering his daughter is in the hospital, Zhang Shuai was particularly unwilling.
