Chapter 41 Let Me Wear Shoes
Outside the bedroom, the man's screams became weaker and weaker, and the curses in his mouth slowly turned into crying and pleas for mercy.

"Don't, don't fight..."

The nosebleed mixed with tears splashed all over the floor.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, stop fighting."

Hanyu Tamako came to her senses, hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Chen Xingguo's hand, and whispered to dissuade him.

After all, this is a society ruled by law. It is impossible to beat someone to death at home.

After a momentary impulse, Chen Xingguo regained his senses, stopped his actions, shook his numb hands, and stood up.

He looked coldly at the man lying on the ground, picked up the tissue handed to him by Yuzuru Tamako and wiped his hands.

"Do you want me to call the police for you?"

As Chen Xingguo spoke, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

He was not afraid of the matter becoming a big deal, even if it would delay the municipal project that he had just won.

However, the man on the ground did not seem to think so. When he heard the word "call the police", his body twitched a few times and he quickly struggled to get up from the ground.

He wiped his face and forced a smile that was uglier than crying.

"No, don't call the police. I'm leaving. I'm leaving right now."

After he finished speaking tremblingly, he crawled out of the room, without any trace of the fierceness he had at the beginning.

Chen Xingguo frowned, stood where he was and did not chase after him.

He turned around and wanted to go to the bedroom to see his son, but saw Chen An poking his little head out with his fingers to his mouth.

"Xiao Xi is asleep, Dad, you can talk to Aunt Yuzi first, we'll be fine."

Chen Xingguo opened his mouth and was about to say something when he saw his son quietly close the bedroom door.

Click.

In the messy living room, only Chen Xingguo and Hanyu Tamako were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

The woman was stunned for a moment, then she silently bent over and picked up the tilted tables and chairs.

Seeing this, Chen Xingguo walked over and took it from her.

"You go and rest, I'll do it."

Hanyu Tamako lowered her head and whispered a thank you.

"Thanks……"

"No, I should be the one to say thank you. I'm sorry for bothering you with Xiao An."

"It's not a problem. He's very sensible and willing to take care of Xiaoxi. He helped me a lot..."

Listening to the woman's rebuttal, Chen Xingguo smiled, straightened the table, thought for a moment and said:

"By the way, if something like what just happened happens again... remember to call me, or you can give me a call."

Hanyu Tamako looked up at him, hesitated, and did not refuse in a pretentious manner, but did not speak for a long time.

……

……

bedroom.

Chen An closed the door quietly, turned around, and saw the girl staring at him.

She was not crying this time. She was sitting in a wheelchair with red eyes and slightly pursed lips.

"Where did I fall asleep..."

When Chen An approached, she protested quietly.

Chen An chuckled, reached out and carried her to the bed.

Then he quickly rolled onto the bed, took the quilt to cover her, and looked at her with a smile.

"If I say you sleep, you sleep."

Hanyu Shio didn't understand and blinked.

"Just lie down for a while. I'll go eavesdrop."

After Chen An finished speaking, he turned around and tried to get out of bed.

But when he was halfway through turning, the girl grabbed his hand.

Turning back, I met those eyes that were faintly filled with anxiety.

Her face was pale, her voice was weak, and her tone sounded like begging.

"Don't go..." Chen An was startled, and gently held her hand, comforting her: "I won't leave, I'll go and take a look behind the door."

But the girl refused and sat up, hugging his waist tightly.

Our cheeks were pressed together, feeling slightly cold, and our long hair brushed across our noses, with a faint fragrance.

"do not go……"

She murmured, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

"Okay, okay, I won't leave. I won't leave."

Chen An agreed repeatedly, feeling helpless about what to do with her. Facing such a weak girl like Yuzuru Xi, he really couldn't bring himself to refuse her.

It’s simply...cute to the point of being unfair!

……

Another month.

After that incident that night, the two families began to visit each other more frequently.

Chen Xingguo would occasionally come downstairs to eat for free. Of course, unlike his son who would eat for free, he would bring some gifts every time he came.

It could be milk, it could be some food, and sometimes they would take the initiative to bring big fish and meat and ask Hanyu Tamako to help process it.

Chen An expressed his full understanding of his father's actions.

There is no other reason, compared with Chen Xingguo’s own cooking, the food cooked by Aunt Yuzi is just too delicious.

Huang Chen never showed up again, as if he had really given up, or maybe he was beaten too badly by Chen Xingguo that night and dared not harass the mother and daughter again.

As for his career, Chen An looked at his father's cheerful face and thought that it should be thriving.

He already had the ability in this area, and after the kidnapping case, there happened to be many people in the county who wanted to take this opportunity to get to know him.

As for Hanyu Shio's injury, it has now evolved to the point where he can crawl on the ground, and he will be completely healed in about no time.

Everything seems to be developing in a good direction.

But there is one other thing that is always on my mind.

……

As autumn deepens, the weather gradually turns cooler and the chill is biting.

In a large villa by the river, Chen An tied his coat tightly on and walked into the yard outside.

This is a large yard with many unnamed flowers and plants planted in the corners, but it does not look messy and is obviously taken care of by someone regularly.

Next to the left wall of the courtyard, there is a big locust tree with a big swing hanging on it. It is Bai Congdong's favorite. In midsummer, the girl can often be seen on the swing.

Now it is late autumn and the season is about to change. The temperature outside has dropped sharply, and the person on the swing has changed.

Maybe because she felt cold, she didn't wear the white skirt, but a very long light green skirt with an ivory cardigan layered on top.

The swing is different from the ones in the park. It is a very large and comfortable swing chair with vine weaving and a backrest in a semicircular shape.

Bai Congqiu curled up in the chair with her calves crossed, revealing only a pair of clean white socks under her long skirt.

She was flipping through the book on her lap, and when she noticed the movement, she said without even looking up, "You've made your sister angry again."

"I do not have……"

Chen An sighed. Recently, because they were about to part, Bai Congdong was very resentful of his "indifferent" attitude.

"There's no reason why my sister would kick me out."

Chen An felt unhappy after hearing Bai Congqiu's words.

What does it mean to be kicked out?

He was clearly walking on his own two legs!
He looked at the girl who was still reading quietly, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and suddenly reached out and pushed the swing hard.

"Eh……"

The swing was swinging so violently that the girl immediately lost her balance and fell forward.

She tried to grab the edge of the swing, but her arms were too short to reach it.

She screamed subconsciously, her face turned pale, and she was about to hit the ground with her head. Fortunately, someone was prepared and held her steadily.

A little prank.

The boy behaved very well and didn't do anything excessive. He just smiled and tried to put her back on the ground.

"Wait... my socks are going to get dirty."

Bai Congqiu held his neck tightly, refusing to let go. Her face was slightly red, and she didn't know where she had lost her book. With a hint of embarrassment in her tone, she leaned close to his ear and whispered:
"Let me put on my shoes..."
