"alright."

Gu Xunzhou gently pressed Hengheng's lips with his fingers, stopping him from continuing.

"Um."

After being blocked, Hengheng struggled unwillingly, but Gu Xunzhou's fingers were pressing tightly. He had no choice but to droop his head.

Forget it, listen to Daddy.

The little guy stopped moving, and Gu Xunzhou continued slowly.

"You were not in good health when you were born. I blame Dad for not checking you earlier. Your mommy was good to you. She had her own difficulties when she left. Don't blame her."

Hengheng immediately frowned.

Don't you blame her?

She was the one who didn't want them, and she was the one who left. He envied the children in the kindergarten who were picked up by their parents, and he once secretly watched them with their mothers.

Whenever he sees them snuggling in his mother's arms, he will secretly think of his mother.

What Gu Heng didn't tell Gu Xunzhou was that there were children in the kindergarten bullying him, saying that he was a wild child without a mother. He fought with other children and was bleeding from the head. Other children had mothers, but he only didn't.

He could only make trouble with Gu Xunzhou and asked Gu Xunzhou to change his school, but there were bad kids in every school who bullied him. He gradually hated going to school and simply stopped going to school and followed Gu Xunzhou.

Gu Xunzhou thought he was a bad boy who didn't like going to school, so he let him go.

"Okay, it's time to go to bed."

Gu Xunzhou patted Gu Heng's head and drove him to his room. Gu Heng stuck out his tongue, slipped down from his legs, took two steps and stood still.

"Dadly."

Gu Heng looked at him timidly, his eyes full of expectation: "Can I sleep with you?"

As soon as Gu Xunzhou frowned, Gu Heng waved his hand quickly: "I understand, Daddy, I'll leave now."

Since he was two years old, Gu Xunzhou has not allowed him to sleep in a room.

Although he was very scared, Gu Xunzhou would not change his mind.

Staring at the little guy leaving, Gu Xunzhou let out a light breath and pulled open the drawer. A thick layer of business documents was pressed under a photo of a woman.

He took out the photo and looked at it silently.

She smiled like a flower, and he was a little confused when he saw it.

Wen Xia, why are you back?

I obviously gave up on you, but you came back to tease my heartstrings. What was your idea?

In the room on the second floor, Gu Heng was lying on the bed alone, holding the pillow tightly.

The lights in the room were on, his little body curled up, and his eyes widened and he looked at the floating curtains.

Gu Xunzhou did not allow him to sleep with others. He had been sleeping in the same bed by himself since he was two years old, but he would be afraid of floating curtains, thunder and rain, and the dark witch who opened his mouth in the dark and bit him.

But he can't change anything.

"Rumbling."

The dull thunder sounded, Gu Heng gritted his teeth tightly, his little face full of pain, and tears dripped silently along his face, and soon wet the pillow.

"Mommy."

A low murmur sounded, and Gu Heng gradually fell asleep.

At the same time, the Xing family's mansion was in the big house.

"Hengheng."

Wen Xia exclaimed and suddenly sat up from the bed.

She dreamed again.

For the past five years, she had nightmares all the time, dreaming that Hengheng helped to reach out to her in the fire, wanting to let her hug him, but she reached out and wanted to hold him in her arms, but she could only touch a piece of nothingness.

She could only watch Hengheng surrounded by scorching flames, deformed and disappeared under the burning of the flame tongue, and her little face was full of pain.

It would have been great if she hadn't left the villa back then.

After dreaming of midnight, she blamed herself like this every time.

"You're awake."

The warm voice of a woman came from his ears. Wen Xia looked up in a daze, just in time to meet Ye Xuexin's slightly gentle eyes, and was quietly looking at her.

"Why are you here?"

Wen Xia had just finished asking this sentence, and suddenly thought of the current Xing family mansion. She laughed at herself, took the milk handed over by Ye Xuexin, and drank two big sips in one breath.

The mellow fragrance of milk lingered on the tip of her tongue, lips and teeth. Ye Xuexin looked at her quietly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

“Is it delicious?”

"Um."

She put the cup aside and lay down on the bed, but Ye Xuexin did not leave, but sat down beside her bed.

"It's still Brother Xunzhou who tells me that you like to drink pure milk."

Ye Xuexin's voice was empty and light, floating throughout the room: "He knew what you like to drink and eat, and knew the value of your figure. He prepared a beautiful clothes and jewelry in the cloakroom for you, and many small things you like. After I ran out of Xing's house, I saw him treating you so well, and I was very jealous of you."

"At that time, I often thought, look, I failed many people, my parents died in a car accident, and I was lonely and had no support. I finally met Xing Chuan. I thought he was my redemption, but it was an endless abyss. Compared with you, my life was extremely miserable."

Wen Xia suddenly clenched her hands.

Because she tried too hard, her fingers and joints were slightly white, and her fingers pierced into her palms with force. A sharp pain came, almost piercing the palms of her palms.

"Don't mention the past."

What's the point of saying this now?

She lost, she lost completely.

"What to say."

Ye Xuexin looked at Wen Xia and said solemnly: "Xia Xia, allow me to call you intimately. Before I met you, I was Gu Xunzhou's only sister. Our family had a good relationship. He had no other relatives, only me. He lost his father at a young age. You know what his mother's virtue is. He longed for family affection, so he valued me very much."

"so what?"

Wen Xia laughed at herself: "If you say these useless nonsense, you can leave."

"Not nonsense."

Ye Xuexin held her hand and said repeatedly: "Xia Xia, Gu Xunzhou didn't lie to you at the beginning. You are also very important in his heart. The reason why he valued me so much was that he valued his promise to my parents. If it weren't for my parents, it would be his parents who died. Do you understand? That was the promise that my parents made with their lives, and he must keep it."

The promise of life.

Wen Xia was deeply shocked.

She had never heard Gu Xunzhou mention it.

She also lost her mother at a young age. She didn't know who her father was at that time. She grew up eating a hundred families, so she was particularly eager for family affection. She understood Gu Xunzhou's feeling of looking forward to family affection.

But did Ye’s parents actually use their lives to make him make an oath?

Wen Xia didn't say anything. Ye Xuexin knew that she was soft-hearted and hurriedly explained the accident to her in detail.

"At that time, someone had to represent the Gu family overseas, but they were going there for a lifetime. My father and Uncle Gu were friends of life and death. At the critical moment, he stood up and wanted to go overseas alone. My mother insisted on following my father, but both died overseas, but she won the Gu family the last chance to resurrect themselves."

Ye Xuexin held Wen Xia's hand tightly and continued, "Xia Xia, my parents forced him to make a vow with their lives. How could he break his promise? I forced him to agree to let him fulfill his promise and not let him tell anyone, including you."
