Chapter 338 Seeing but Not Knowing
Taotao rushed in the men’s room by himself, and Xia Xiaoluo was waiting for him at the door. In Xia Xiaoluo’s opinion, Taotao would finish peeing in one or two minutes, so she thought that nothing serious would happen to her little son.
Taotao was short, so he was trying his best to do it well. But he still left some pee on the floor. What was more embarra.s.sing, Taotao also smudged the trousers of an uncle standing beside him.
“Sorry, uncle, I didn’t do it on purpose.” Taotao’s blushed out of embarra.s.sment, but he plucked up courage to apologize.
“Where is your parents? It’s so annoying!” Ling Tianyi even didn’t raise his head. He found it unfortunate to meet such a thing. However, as an adult, he couldn’t embarra.s.s a little boy. What was more, the little boy has apologized to him. So Ling Tianyi shook his head, he did not say anything.
“Uncle, my mommy is outside. It’s me that caused the trouble, so my mommy won’t leave me alone. She will make it up for you.” Taotao raised his head, looking at the uncle, Taotao seemed to be familiar with that uncle, but he didn’t know the reason.
But it was a pity that the uncle still didn’t look at Taotao. He just said impatiently, “Never mind. Go away and don’t bother me.”
“Sorry, I’m going now!” Taotao left the men’s room, but he remembered the uncle. Taotao decided to buy him another pair of trousers when he met him again.
Xia Xiaoluo helped Taotao to wash his hands and took him leave the shopping mall. Because her purpose was not to go shopping. Instead, she had something else to do. Today was the birthday of the man that she couldn’t forget, so she planned to see him even though she could only see him secretly from a distance, just for one glance. Or she would not feel at ease.
Xia Xiaoluo took Taotao to enter the elevator. Once the door of the elevator closed, Ling Tianyi walked out of the men’s room. He was busy neatening his trousers which was smudged by the little annoying boy. He was upset, and he had to buy a new pair of trousers at once because he couldn’t stand it anymore.
Due to Taotao’s mistake, Ling Tianyi didn’t walk out of the men’s room in time. Therefore, Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo finally missed each other in the shopping mall this time.
Xia Xiaoluo took Taotao to the car and told the driver the address of Ling Tianyi’s villa.
Because Xia Xiaoluo was going to meet Ling Tianyi soon. Even though she could only see him secretly, Xia Xiaoluo was still nervous, she even sweated.
Sitting beside Xia Xiaoluo, Taotao felt guilty for the mistake he made just now.
“Mommy!” Taotao called Xia Xiaoluo who was absent-minded.
“What’s wrong? My son, do you want mommy to play with you again?” Xia Xiaoluo smiled reluctantly to Taotao. Even though she was depressed and stressed, she couldn’t pa.s.s her negative emotions to him. She must face Taotao with a sunny smile.
“Mommy, Taotao made a mistake by accident just now. But I didn’t do it on purpose. I’m also upset.” Taotao said with depression.
“Oh? Really? If Taotao didn’t mean to do it, mommy won’t blame you for that. But you have to tell me what you did on earth.” Xia Xiaoluo said gently.
Taotao told Xia Xiaoluo what happened in the men’s room just now, and then he said, “Mommy! I have apologized to the uncle! But he ignored me and he didn’t accept my proposal to make up for it.”
“Taotao, you have apologized to him. What’s more, you didn’t do it on purpose, so you are a good boy. It’s over, so there is no need to think about it again. If you meet the uncle again, mommy will compensate for his trousers.” Xia Xiaoluo comforted Taotao, she was thinking about that man. Why did he do it like this? Even though the child made mistakes, he shouldn’t behave like that. What he did indeed made Taotao upset.
Taotao also nodded, “I remember the uncle, so I will compensate for his trousers as long as I can meet him again.”
Xia Xiaoluo comforted Taotao, she told him two stories, and then Taotao became delighted gradually.
At this time, the car stopped and they arrived.
Xia Xiaoluo looked at the villa she was familiar with before. It was their love house Ling Tianyi built for her, but she could only see it secretly from distance now.
Xia Xiaoluo took a deep breath, and she finally took Taotao to get off the car. She wanted to get nearer to the villa. She wanted to find out whether there was a new hostess in her previous warm home.
“Xia Xiaoluo, it’s really you!” Qiao Anna was shocked.
Once Xia Xiaoluo saw Qiao Anna, she was totally disappointed even though she was ignorant of anything.
Qiao Anna wouldn’t wandering there without any purposes. What was more, Xia Xiaoluo saw the news on the Internet that Ling Tianyi was going to get married with Qiao Anna. Therefore, Xia Xiaoluo was almost sure that Qiao Anna has married Ling Tianyi, becoming the new hostess of the villa.
In addition, there was a birthday cake in Qiao Anna’s hands, it was Ling Tianyi’s birthday today.
“Xia Xiaoluo, I thought that you are dead! Beyond my expectation, you are still alive! Now that you left, just stay there. Why do you come back now? Do you think that you can be with Yi again? Stop dreaming! I will never let him go back to you! Yi will always belong to me! He will only belong to Qiao Anna!” Qiao Anna’s tone was very sharp and her expression was resentful and evil.
“It’s you who is going to die! You are ugly to death! You are so ugly! You are an ugly woman! Humph! You make me sick.” Taotao stared at Qiao Anna. He thought that he had grown up and he could protect his mommy. So he wouldn’t be polite when he faced the evil and rude woman.
“Taotao, stop it!” Xia Xiaoluo didn’t want Taotao to get involved in the conflicts between adults. So she held Taotao in her arms.
“Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You must be a b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Why are you so impolite? You must have no father to teach you!” Qiao Anna stared at Taotao.
When Qiao Anna saw Taotao, she was sure that Taotao was the son of Ling Tianyi. Because Taotao looked like Ling Tianyi very much. Therefore, she hated this, she hated the existence of Taotao even more. If Taotao didn’t exist, it was possible for her to get Ling Tianyi by resorting to all kinds of threats and inducements. But if Ling Tianyi knew Taotao’s existence, it was totally impossible for her to obtain Ling Tianyi in her whole life.
“Qiao Anna, once we met just now, I didn’t scold you or beat you up. But you kept speaking evil and rude words to me. Don’t you think that you are impolite? How can you say those evil words to hurt a little boy who is only more than one year old? Don’t you feel shameful?” Xia Xiaoluo tried her best to control her emotion. But she wouldn’t allow anyone to abuse her son.
If Taotao wasn’t there, Xia Xiaoluo would start to beat Qiao Anna up. But for the sake of Taotao’s safety, she couldn’t hit her, for fear the she would hurt innocent Taotao by accident.
Being obedient, Taotao stayed in Xia Xiaoluo’s arms quietly, neither crying nor screaming. But he started to think about why he had no father. Why did the woman say those words? Taotao wanted to have a father, but where was his father? Taotao didn’t know about his father, but it wasn’t the proper time for him to ask his mommy about it. Because his mommy was busy dealing with the annoying woman! That woman was indeed annoying.
“Xia Xiaoluo, do you still miss Yi?” Qiao Anna changed the topic, she mentioned Ling Tianyi to stimulate Xia Xiaoluo.
“Is it any of your business whether I still miss Yi?” Xia Xiaoluo asked Qiao Anna.
“Sure! Because I won’t allow other woman to miss my man!” Qiao Anna said firmly, as if Ling Tianyi was really her husband. However, in fact, she did not have any relationship with Ling Tianyi. All the things were arranged and made up by Qiao Anna.
Xia Xiaoluo was shocked in her heart, because what Qiao Anna said meant that Ling Tianyi really married Qiao Anna. Even though she had guessed it before. Perhaps, when she saw the news on the Internet, she had accepted the fact. However, after hearing Qiao Anna speak it out firmly, Xia Xiaoluo was still depressed and she was extremely heartbroken.
Qiao Anna saw through Xia Xiaoluo’s thoughts, she guessed why Xia Xiaoluo came as well. She knew that Xia Xiaoluo came here to see Ling Tianyi secretly. So Qiao Anna decided to make a good performance to cheat Xia Xiaoluo.
“Today is my husband’s birthday, so I bought a cake for him deliberately. There is champagne at home and I will cook the steak for him as well. He said that what I cooked was the most delicious food in the world. The food others cooked was the rubbish! He felt sick when he saw it.” Qiao Anna knew that Xia Xiaoluo always cooked for Ling Tianyi before, and Ling Tianyi liked what Xia Xiaoluo made very much, so she hurt Xia Xiaoluo deliberately by saying this.
“My husband and I want to spend a romantic day today, so don’t disturb us. What’s more, there will be something improper for the children to see. If you don’t want your little b.a.s.t.a.r.d to see it when he is so young, just go away with your little b.a.s.t.a.r.d as soon as possible.” Qiao Anna started to drive them away.
Even though Qiao Anna was arrogant, she wasn’t confident at all. Ling Tianyi has ordered some people to punish her and she almost died. In addition, the Qiao’s Group was also in danger. Qiao Anna went to meet Ling Tianyi today for a project of the Qiao’s Group. However, what a coincidence. She met Xia Xiaoluo, she knew that she would be finished if Xia Xiaoluo really appeared in front of Ling Tianyi.
“You don’t want Yi to see me, so you wanna drive me away. But how can I fall into your trap again?” Xia Xiaoluo sneered. Even though she was not smart enough sometimes, she was always teased by others, and she wasn’t stupid anymore. So she wouldn’t leave here easily. She wouldn’t believe anyone’s words, especially Qiao Anna, unless she met Ling Tianyi.
Qiao Anna got anxious, but she still pretended to be calm apparently. She couldn’t express her anxiety, or she would really lose in the battle.
Qiao Anna smiled slightly, she took out her mobile phone from her bag. And then she called Ling Tianyi and put him on speaker in front of Xia Xiaoluo.
“Yi, where are you now? I’m here, waiting for you.” Qiao Anna said gently.
“I will arrive in 10 minutes!” Ling Tianyi said coldly and hang up.
“My husband will arrive at home in 10 minutes, so do you want to witness our sweet love?” Qiao Anna continued provoking Xia Xiaoluo.
“Of course! If you really love each other, I will give you my wishes!” Xia Xiaoluo said. She seemed calm. However, she felt complicated in her heart. She heard his cold voice again. Although it was only from the phone, she was going crazy.
