this is the new contract we have agreed on with you. Sun Zhong has already resigned, and his position is still empty. Since you have taken over Sun Zhong’s position for so many years, I think you must be very familiar with the department’s matters and business aspects. So, you will replace him now. Your men have not changed. Do you have any opinions on this contract? if not, we can sign the contract now and take effect. Of course, please return to the Art Academy as soon as possible.”

Xia ruoxin was really annoyed by the rush. Naturally, whoever started this matter would have to deal with it.

When Xu Ziru heard that Xia ruoxin wanted him to replace Sun Zhong’s position, he almost became a fool. He took the contract and signed his name without thinking. It was not for his new identity, but because he owed Xia ruoxin a favor. Even if Xia ruoxin sold him, he would be willing.

Of course, Xia ruoxin would not sell him. On the contrary, he was treated very well. In order for him to take care of her daughter, Xia ruoxin had arranged a house near the company for him. With Xu Ziru’s salary, it would not be a problem for him to find a responsible nanny to take care of his daughter when he went to work.

Of course, he would naturally understand these things in the future. Right now, the most important thing was Mengmeng’s surgery.

Mengmeng’s operation was very successful. When the doctor came out to tell them that the operation was very successful, Xu Ziru, a man, hugged his head and squatted on the ground, crying out loud.

Xia ruoxin leaned her back against the wall and had an indescribable feeling.

This must be how you felt when you met Gao Yi.

Chu lui asked her. That kind of hope to survive after a disaster.

Xia ruoxin raised her eyes and did not answer his question.

I know. Chu lui was not jealous. On the contrary, he was very grateful to that man even though he was his love rival. Now that he had saved Mengmeng and Xu Ziru, one could not say that he was a good person. It was just that this father and daughter had almost the same experience as Xia ruoxin and her daughter.

His daughter had also met Gao Yi at that time, so he was grateful, just like how Xu Ziru was grateful to Xia ruoxin.

Suddenly, Xia ruoxin raised her head and stared at Chu lui’s side profile, which was still overly angular. It was as if the angle of his face had softened due to the refraction of light.

There was also the White hair on his temples. In the past, he only had a little, but now, it was all white. He did not deliberately dye them black. To him, perhaps he was already old. No matter how normal his body functions were, or even more vigorous than ordinary people, he was still old.

He had experienced thousands of sails and tribulations.

In fact, at this point, it was no longer something that could be explained with a single mouth. Life was actually very short, just like how she advised Wu Sha back then. Did she really have to wait until her hair turned white and her life was at its end before she could let go of all her stubbornness and persistence?

Some stubbornness was self-inflicted, and some persistence was useless.

Chu lui … suddenly, she called out the man’s name in a hoarse voice. It seemed to start from the memory of standing under the tree more than 20 years ago. He was still young then, and she was even younger that year.

hmm, what’s wrong? ” Chu lui stood up straight. He had always kept a certain distance from her. It was not because he did not want to get close to her, but because he was afraid that if he got too close, she would be disgusted.

Xia ruoxin let out a sigh of relief. She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there was a hint of clarity.

let’s give it a try, just like … she lowered her eyes, and her gaze fell on her white fingers.

“Just treat it as your last chance. I don’t want my daughter to have a stepfather or stepmother. Even though the possibility is small, it’s not impossible.”

Besides, he was the only man by her side now.

Perhaps, they could really give it a try, even if everyone said that they were not suitable.

Chu lui took a long time to react, and his heart was filled with joy. He quickly stood up straight and walked to Xia ruoxin’s side. His chest was rising and falling violently. He was excited and trembling.

For a man like him, even if someone died in front of him, he would calmly think about how the person died. It was a business dispute, not a loss in business.

What’s the point of such a good-for-nothing person living in this world? it’s such a waste of rice.

Now, he was so excited that he couldn’t even say a complete sentence.

ruoxin, thank you. the man did not dare to make any big movements. He only reached out his large hand to hold Xia ruoxin’s slightly cold hand.

“I swear, I swear on my life, this is the last time.”

It was true.

Xia ruoxin’s Red lips trembled, but she did not say anything. The hand that was holding her tightly had a scalding temperature. It was very, very warm. The temperature seeped into her blood through her skin. Then, it flowed through her internal organs and connected with the beating of her heart. It also seemed to bring about some indescribable …

He felt at ease.

Chu lui opened the door. The housekeepers were all there. On the table in the living room, rainy was doing her homework obediently. Her hair was still slightly curled, and her bangs were neatly cut.

Sitting opposite him was a young boy. He was teaching rainy how to write. He was very serious in teaching, and rainy was also very serious in writing.

Zheng Anze looked up and saw Chu lui. He quickly stood up as well.

“Hello, uncle. Hello, Auntie.”

The young boy was still very young, and his face was still childish. However, he was very tall, and mixed in with the crowd, he looked like an adult.

Xia ruoxin walked over and compared Zheng Anze’s height.

“Anze, you seem to have grown taller?” It was fine if she wore high heels, but when she wore flats, she was still much shorter than Zheng Anze. In fact, she was a little taller than the Zheng Anze she had seen the last time.

How did this child grow so tall in such a short time? how many centimeters did he grow in a year?

big brother grew 15 centimeters. rainy wrinkled her nose. I’ve only grown five centimeters. rainy extended two of her fingers. big brother is a giant like Daddy. "

The others didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at her words.

Chu lui walked over, squatted down, and rubbed his daughter’s head.

“When I grow up, I’ll be as tall as you.”

as tall as daddy. rainy hugged her father’s neck and acted coquettishly. as tall as daddy, I’ll be taller than brother. "

Chu lui’s eyes twitched.
