At the dining table, unlike usual, Xue Mu Yang's expression was no longer cold. His expression was rather intriguing. One could find a hint of joy on his face. In Can Jie's eyes, he was surprised.
He was a little playful as he ate his rice, his attention completely focused on Xue Mu Yang.
Based on his understanding of Xue Mu Yang, no matter how happy he was, he would hide it very well. Coldness was his protective color and he would not easily fade away.
However, he had changed and became abnormal!
The cold and indifferent him actually had a gentle smile on his face!
"Uncle, what happened? You look very happy.”Can Jie was trembling with fear as he asked. His eyes were sharp as he looked at Xue Mu Yang, afraid that he would miss any expression on his face.
Xue Mu Yang smiled without saying a word and took a mouthful of rice.
" Uncle…" Something must have made him so happy.
Can Jie was ready to get to the bottom of it.
Xue Mu Yang picked up some dishes and placed them in his bowl.
"You're only ten years old. I didn't expect your culinary skills to be so good.”The longer she spent with Can Jie, the more she realized how precious he was.
He was very intelligent and understood everything. What was even more praiseworthy was that he had good craftsmanship.
When he first asked to cook, he was shocked and found it hard to believe that he could cook. However, as the delicious dishes were presented in front of him, he could not help but admire them.
Therefore, he did his best to cultivate him and teach him the attitude he should have. Although he was only ten years old, he believed that he was a talented person. As long as he trained him well, he would definitely achieve extraordinary results in the future.
Canjie and he hit it off quite well, so he especially allowed him, a child who was originally unfamiliar with him and had nothing to do with him, to step into his private world.
Ever since he had Canjie's company, his monotonous life had become much better.
He liked this child from the bottom of his heart, just like the feelings between family members. Their relationship became closer and closer.
"Uncle, don't beat around the bush.”Can Jie said unhappily, but his hopeful gaze was cast on Xue Mu Yang.
Xue Mu Yang smiled." What do you want to know?”
"I want to know everything." He thought of something smart." Do you have someone you like?”
"What do you mean?" Xue Mu Yang was slightly taken aback.
"Your expression. Uncle is a person who doesn't easily show his emotions on his face. Even if something big happens, it won't be able to make your cold expression fade. However, you're very different today. It makes me feel that you're in love, but is that possible?”He gave a long speech and expressed his views endlessly.
What a sharp child. He was right!
He had always thought that he had hidden it very well. Even when facing the woman he loved deeply, he could not show it rashly. However, a ten-year-old child actually saw through his thoughts so keenly, which surprised him.
Following Xue Mu Yang's silence, Can Jie's expression turned uglier and uglier.
No, don't let him guess correctly. He didn't want to lose Xue Mu Yang. It wasn't easy for him to get close to him. He didn't want to lose Xue Mu Yang again!
"Uncle, are you really in love?”He wanted to cry but had no tears, his eyes filled with unease.
Xue Mu Yang nodded his head slightly. In front of Can Jie, he was very straightforward and did not need to hide his true self.
His words were like a bolt from the blue sky. Can Jie could not accept it.
"No, this is not true." He shouted emotionally.
This was not the truth. He could not accept it. He could not accept someone sharing Xue Mu Yang.
"Canjie, you…you're unhappy." Xue Mu Yang could sense his displeasure, but why?
"I…I was just afraid that someone would snatch my uncle away.”Can Jie was angry at his own impulsiveness and almost revealed his secret in front of Xue Mu Yang.
"Silly, I'm still your uncle. This won't change. Moreover, I'll treat you as my child and let you receive the best education.”
"No, that's not what I want." He shook his head in refusal, his eyes filled with too much emotion.
Xue Mu Yang raised his eyebrows.
"What I want is uncle's care and protection.”He stared straight at Xue Mu Yang, his eyes filled with emotions, making one feel reluctant to part with him.
It was a pair of eyes that begged for love and protection.
Xue Mu Yang smiled. This child probably really treated him as a father, which was why he had such a look in his eyes!
Xue Mu Yang put down the chopsticks in his hand and touched Can Jie's hair." I've always treated you as my family. This is the truth.”
" But there will be a woman who will occupy a place in your heart soon. Uncle will no longer care about me…" he muttered in a low voice, his tone rather sour.
" Can Jie, I hope you can understand that this woman has been in my heart for a few years…" Can Jie was always able to draw out the deepest emotions in his heart. Even his feelings, he did not hold back.
He didn't even reveal a single word to his three good friends.
"Eh?" Can Jie stared at him in surprise.
His confession was like a fantasy story, hard to believe.
"You don't believe me, do you?"
Can Jie nodded quickly.
" Actually, it's hard for me to believe it too, but every time I think of that woman, it hurts here. I can't help but believe it. In the beginning, I was also depressed and in pain because that relationship made my heart suffer all the time. There wasn't a moment of happiness..." He pressed his chest, his expression sour and bitter.
In front of Can Jie, he had completely revealed his heart without holding back.
"If that's the case, uncle, don't think about that woman!”This way, Xue Mu Yang would not be snatched away and he would belong to him alone.
"Canjie, when you fall in love with a woman in the future, you'll know what it feels like. Your heart is all for her. You can give up everything just for her.”
Can Jie's face was all scrunched up.
This was not the result he wanted. In order to get his parents back together, he had put in a lot of effort to persuade Meng Lan to help him so that he could get close to him without being suspected by Xue Muyang.
Ever since he was young, he knew that his father was Xue Mu Yang. Even if his mother did not mention his father, he could still easily see the melancholy in her eyes.
If it wasn't for the fact that she still loved her father, she would not have given birth to him. She would not have rejected a man's pursuit and raised him alone. Therefore, when he became sensible and found out that his biological father was Xue Muyang, he began to brainwash Hua Menglan. This was because among the three godmothers, Godmother Menglan was the most stable and reliable.
After getting Hua Menglan's approval, they worked together to convince Yan Zhiqin to agree to his summer camp. In fact, he had already started planning all the opportunities to get close to Xue Muyang.
Meng Lan's godmother was the one who helped him steal money and fake his grandmother. Now, he had finally gotten close to his father, but he had to give it up to a woman he didn't even know. How could he take this lying down?
No, even if he had to snatch it, he had to take it back from that woman. His father only belonged to the mother and son. No one could snatch it away.
"Uncle, does that woman love you?”
Xue Mu Yang's smile faded away and a hint of sadness appeared on his face.
Can Jie's words pierced his heart.
"She…doesn't love me."
Can Jie almost slammed the table and cheered. He was not cursing his father's love. As long as one was human, they would have selfish motives. His selfish motives were to hope that their family could be reunited.
"Uncle, since she doesn't love you, go find someone else. Don't let a woman affect your relationship. Besides, that woman must be blind to not love you.”
"Canjie, I told you this because I hope you can share my worries.”
"Alright! Uncle, can you tell me about that woman? What kind of woman is she?" Can Jie stared into her gentle eyes and sighed faintly. He was retreating in order to advance.
It was not appropriate to reveal too much emotion now, or it would ruin things. He really wanted to know who it was that had a place in his father's heart.
"She's very beautiful.”
"Oh! Then how did you two meet?"
"We met at my company's year-end party.”Recalling that past, Xue Mu Yang's lips could not help but curl up.
Canjie felt bad for her. What kind of charm did that woman have to make his father yearn for her?
"And then? Did you invite her to dance and then sparks of love burst out?”Hmph, vixen.
" No, it's my three good friends…" Xue Mu Yang recounted everything that happened at the year-end party, but he avoided some of the more provocative topics.
Can Jie felt that something was wrong." Uncle, forgive me for asking you this, but did you two have sex?"”
Xue Mu Yang was surprised. He initially wanted to avoid mentioning it because even if he was mature, he was still a child. However, he did not expect that his mind was so sharp that he could easily grasp the main point and ask him.
"Canjie-"
"Don't treat me like a child." He interrupted Xue Mu Yang with a smile.
Xue Mu Yang replied with a smile,"Yes."”
Can Jie's anger rose. What a shameless woman. She actually used such a method to seduce his father!
"Then she should like Uncle. Otherwise, she wouldn't have slept with you.”He went straight to the point. His solemn expression made Xue Mu Yang feel as if he was dealing with an adult and not a child.
"Canjie, you won't understand the emotional world of adults. One second, she can say that she likes you, but the next second, she can throw herself into someone else's arms and still say that she likes you.”Xue Mu Yang revealed a sorrowful and pained expression.
"You mean that when that woman said that she liked you, she also said the same thing to another man.”
What a shameless woman. She actually let down her father's feelings!
Xue Mu Yang's expression darkened." It was a huge blow to me to see her fall into someone else's arms. It was the first time you fell in love with a woman. When you want to love her with your life, you realize that you're not the only man she loves. That's a very sad thing, so…"
That night, Xue Mu Yang revealed the deepest secrets in his heart to Can Jie…
In the park, a child was playing on the swing. Unlike the excited look of ordinary children, he looked worried and listless as he looked ahead.
The adult stood behind the child on the left, following the child's emotions.
"Godmother Menglan, what should we do? Daddy actually has someone he likes!" After hearing about Xue Mu Yang's love affair that night, he was so depressed that he did not know what to do.
He was really afraid that the woman who occupied Xue Mu Yang's heart would occupy his father forever. If that happened, their family would never be able to reunite.
Mommy would never accept that Daddy liked another woman!
Hua Menglan was slightly stunned and stood rooted to the ground. She did not expect that the plan that the two of them had painstakingly planned would actually be in vain. Xue Muyang already had someone he liked. What about Yan Zhiqin and Can Jie?
Seeing Can Jie's worried expression, Hua Menglan couldn't help but worry.
Could it be that Yan Zhiqin and her son were really fated to be with Xue Mu Yang?
"That woman doesn't like Dad at all. She's a love swindler. Not only did she lie to Dad's feelings, but she also lied to others 'feelings and trampled on others' feelings.”
"If that's the case, why is Xue Mu Yang still so stubborn and still in love with that woman?”She couldn't understand why Xue Mu Yang was so devoted to that woman.
"He seemed to be possessed. Even though that woman treated him like that, he still liked her very much. He treated her as a treasure in his hands and protected her in his heart for a long time. Even now, he still could not forget the woman who had once hurt him.”
'I really couldn't tell that Xue Mu Yang is so infatuated with her.' Hua Menglan thought to herself but did not say what she was thinking.
However, he was really too much. When he was still in love with someone else, he came to provoke Yan Zhiqin.
Ever since Xue Mu Yang appeared in front of Yan Zhiqin, Yan Zhiqin's heart was already in turmoil. She was lying when she said that she did not love Xue Mu Yang. Everyone could clearly see the attachment in Yan Zhiqin's eyes.
Even if Yan Zhiqin did not say it, they could tell that Yan Zhiqin was still unable to forget Xue Mu Yang.
It seemed that if this plan wasn't quickly put to an end, Yan Zhiqin would probably be like before, washing her face in tears every day.
Therefore, she had to make the right decision so that the mother and son could escape unscathed.
"What about the woman?"
"Dad said that the woman disappeared for a long time. He searched for her for a long time, but he still couldn't find her.”
"This way, you and your son still have a chance.”Since she could not find that woman, she would let Yan Zhiqin fill Xue Mu Yang's heart. She believed that Yan Zhiqin and Can Jie would have a better chance of winning Xue Mu Yang's heart than other women.
However, he shook his head with a sullen face.
"He's been looking for her for a long time, but recently, the two of them unexpectedly met. Dad is already actively trying to get that woman back. He doesn't care how that woman treated him in the past.”
"How did this happen?" Hua Menglan frowned. Why did things become so troublesome?
Back then, she had agreed to Can Jie's request because she hoped that his appearance would move Xue Mu Yang's heart. That way, Yan Zhiqin and Xue Mu Yang would have a chance to reconcile.
Xue Mu Yang's love life was very monotonous. Everyone knew that he hated women, but Yan Zhiqin had the opportunity to give birth to Canjie for him. This might mean that Yan Zhiqin had a place in Xue Mu Yang's heart.
Therefore, she fulfilled Canjie's wish and planned everything with him to get close to Xue Mu Yang without telling Yan Zhiqin. As long as Canjie entered Xue Mu Yang's life, the mother and son pair might be able to gain Xue Mu Yang's attention.
Furthermore, Yan Zhiqin and Xue Mu Yang's unexpected meeting had also made her plan to beat them at their own game and add fuel to the fire.
Therefore, when Yan Zhiqin had defeated Xue Mu Yang, she had deliberately called Xue Mu Yang to provoke him and was deliberately sent away by Xue Mu Yang. It was all for the sake of Yan Zhiqin and her son.
However, she did not think so now. Since the person Xue Mu Yang liked had appeared, she had to persuade Can Jie to let go in order to protect Yan Zhiqin and her son.
"Canjie, shouldn't you consider leaving? Even if you win Xue Mu Yang's heart, he still doesn't like Zhiqin. This isn't the ending we want, so let's let go before Xue Mu Yang finds out that you're his son.”
"Godmother Menglan…I don't want to leave him.”
"Could it be that you are willing to leave Zhiqin? Think about it, when Xue Mu Yang finds out that you are his son, how will he react? If he has the heart to accept you as his son but doesn't want Zhiqin, what should you do? What should Zhiqin do? Can you bear to see your mother lose you?”
"Daddy wouldn't do that…"
"Canjie, you are still a child. The world of adults is very complicated. Maybe when Xue Mu Yang finds out about your existence, he will do everything he can to hurt Zhiqin in order to make you acknowledge your ancestors.”
"No, I don't want to."
"So you should know what to do.”Hua Menglan was cautious.
Can Jie's small face was all squeezed together. He was silent for a long time. After a moment, as if he had made an important decision, he said to Hua Menglan,""Alright, I'll let go, but before I leave, I want to do something for him. I want to see which woman is so charming to occupy his heart.”
" Canjie…" Hua Menglan wanted to persuade him, but when she saw his determined expression, her heart softened.
"I don't want Dad to be hurt again. I have to find out if that woman is lying to Dad again!”
"Do you know where that woman is?”
"I don't know, but with Godmother Menglan's connections, you must have a way to find out. Yesterday, Dad made the headlines, and I heard that it was that woman who did it. She deliberately spread false rumors that Dad is gay. As long as you investigate it with the newspaper, that woman's identity will be revealed.”
Hua Menglan's almond-shaped eyes widened." Canjie, what did you just say? Are you saying that the woman who told the newspaper that your father is gay is the woman your father likes?”
"Dad told me this himself. He said that the woman was taking revenge on him for his bad words and evil deeds. In fact, that was Dad's protective color. When facing that woman, he could never express his feelings because he was afraid of being hurt again.”
"Canjie…this is really too surprising. The fact that your father is gay is the work of your godmothers and your mother.”Hua Menglan was so excited that she wanted to cheer loudly.
Hua Menglan dropped a bomb, and Can Jie's thoughts paused for a moment.
He was flabbergasted and incredulous." You mean, the woman Daddy likes is Mommy…" His heart was filled with surprise and excitement.
"That's right, it's Zhiqin!" Hua Menglan was elated and her entire person was in high spirits.
"In that case, I don't have to leave Dad. I can continue to stay by his side.”He was filled with anticipation.
"Yes, you don't have to leave Xue Mu Yang.”
"That's great. I didn't expect that after going around in circles, the woman Dad likes is actually Mom. I kept thinking that it was another vixen and kept being jealous.”It turned out that he had been jealous of his mother from the beginning to the end.
"But, Canjie, let's not be too happy yet. Your father seems to have misunderstood your mother.”
Can Jie thought for a moment." That's right! Her father seemed to have misunderstood that her mother was a fickle woman.”
He couldn't forget his father's painful gaze. It was a pair of eyes that had been hurt by love.
"Based on my understanding of Zhiqin, she is definitely not that kind of woman!”
"Of course. Otherwise, Mommy wouldn't have given birth to me for Daddy.”
"Therefore, we must resolve the misunderstanding between Xue Mu Yang and Zhiqin.”
"Yes, this way, there will be hope for our family to reunite.”He had already begun to imagine the beautiful scenery of the future…
"Canjie, tell me what you know. We can discuss a grand plan together so that they can finally be together.”
"This is a must!"
Finally, both of their faces revealed a happy expression at the same time.#
