Chapter 149 Baby, Four Years Old
Feng Shuo’s eyes were gloomy. No matter what, he would not give up on Xia Luobing.
Since he could turn the Huo Corporation into the Feng Corporation, Xia Luobing would return to him sooner or later. She would definitely!
Xia Luobing held the child and rang the doorbell. The nanny opened the door with a relieved expression, “Bing Bing, you’re finally back.”
“Who’s here?” Xia Luobing smelled the choking smoke and frowned unhappily. His gaze crossed the nanny and aunt and landed on the man in the living room. His face immediately turned cold and she said, “Get out now!”
Feng Yuanfei sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and a cigarette in his mouth. Seeing Xia Luobing return, he quickly stood up and flattered her, “Cousin-in-law.”
Inadvertently knowing that Feng Shuo liked Xia Luobing, Feng Yuanfei thought about finding Xia Luobing to help him put in a good word and let Feng Shuo arrange for him to be a manager of the company.
Originally, he thought that Feng Shuo would become the CEO and his cousin would also be honored. He never thought that every time Feng Shuo came here, he would always ask about Xia Luobing’s situation and ignore his request. This made him lose face with a group of younger brothers.
Charlotte handed the child to the nanny and whispered, “Auntie, take the child into the bedroom first.”
Seeing the nanny enter the bedroom and close the door, Xia Luobing went straight to the living room and stared at Feng Yuanfei coldly, “Get out immediately, otherwise I will take you to the public security bureau.”
Feng Yuanfei smiled flatteringly and said, “Cousin-in-law, we are all family now. Why did you say that so decisively? Don’t you think so?”
As he spoke, Feng Yuanfei stretched out his hand to pull Xia Luobing’s arm, but he didn’t want to be grabbed by Xia Luobing and pressed down on the table. He immediately cried out, “Aiyo, it hurts so much, cousin … You, you can’t do this to me … We’ll be a family in the future …”
Xia Luobing’s expression turned cold. He pressed down on Feng Yuanfei’s arm and increased her strength. He threw the man outside the door and fell to the ground. He said coldly, “Next time, I will definitely not let you off so easily!”
Feng Yuanfei fell to the ground. The shouting attracted Jing Shaolan and Feng Jinsong, who were waiting for the news at home. When the two of them opened the door and saw their son being thrown to the ground, they immediately became reluctant.
Jing Shaolan aggressively rushed in front of Xia Luobing and took a cowardly step back. She knew that Xia Luobing was the captain of the criminal police, if she offended her
“Xia Luobing, if you hit me, my cousin will definitely not want you!” Feng Yuanfei shouted, “Our Feng Clan will not accept a woman like you!”
This was the conclusion the three of them came to after Feng Shuo came to ask about Xia Luobing’s situation for the nth time. They believed that Xia Luobing would still carry Feng Shuo up the tree sooner or later, and now she was only deliberately putting on a high posture.
Jing Shaolan immediately felt confident. She put her hands on her hips and stared at Xia Luobing, “Xia Luobing, I knew you were trying to capture Feng Shuo’s appet.i.te, but let me tell you, we are his relatives. As long as we don’t recognize you, he won’t marry you, so you’d better …”
“Xia Luobing, I’m Feng Shuo’s uncle. You should know, right?” Feng Jinsong tugged at his brand-new suit and raised his chin to the sky. “Originally, I didn’t agree with you bringing a child, but Feng Shuo said …”
The noise in the corridor caused the upstairs and downstairs neighbors to come to see the liveliness. The three members of the Feng Jinsong Clan were even more frantic as they talked more and more. Looking at Xia Luobing’s ashen face, the three of them had complacent expressions.
“Feng Shuo, if you haven’t left yet, come up.” After making the call, Xia Luobing did not look at the three of them. Seeing Feng Shuo coming up from downstairs, she said coldly, “Please tell your relatives that I have never thought of getting involved with you in the slightest. I also disdain to be the cousin of such a person!”
After saying that, Xia Luobing went straight home and closed the door with a “bang”. Feng Shuo’s expression immediately seemed to have been washed in ink.
Feng Yuanfei quickly got up from the ground and looked at Feng Shuo with an embarra.s.sed smile. “Cousin, this Xia Luobing is too much. She doesn’t even care about you!”
In the eyes of Feng Yuanfei’s family, a second-married woman like Xia Luobing who had a child could marry Feng Shuo, so they were certain that Xia Luobing was deliberately targeting Qiao, which was why they dared to slander her so recklessly.
“Come in!” Feng Shuo entered Feng Yuanfei’s house. When his gaze swept past the three of them, a cold killing intent pounced on his face.
After closing the door, Feng Shuo sized up every house that was decorated with the characteristics of a nouveau riche family. He turned around and sneered at the three of them, “Looks like you guys have indeed lived too many peaceful lives.”
Feng Yuanfei was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said, “Cousin, it’s Xia Luobing …”
“Move out of here immediately!”
Hearing Feng Shuo’s words without any temperature, the three members of Feng Yuanfei’s family suddenly realized that they had truly touched Feng Shuo’s reverse scale. They were immediately dumbfounded and secretly regretted provoking Xia Luobing.
However, it was clear that Feng Shuo did not intend to give the three of them a chance to argue. He turned around and left to knock on Xia Luobing’s door, whispering, “Ice?”
When he received Xia Luobing’s phone call downstairs, he was overjoyed. He thought that she was finally willing to give him a chance, so he didn’t notice the noise on the phone. He didn’t expect to see such a scene after coming up. He was so annoyed that he wanted to throw Feng Yuan into the sea to feed the fish.
There was no response in the room. Naturally, no one came to open the door. Feng Shuo stood there for a while. After a moment of silence, he turned around and looked at the three people who were staring at him. “Someone will come over to help you move!”
Originally, he had placed the three of them here because he wanted to have an excuse to come over frequently to find out about Xia Luobing, but he didn’t expect things to turn out like this.
“Feng Shuo, you can’t do this to your uncle. We are your relatives. You …”
Feng Shuo’s cold gaze interrupted Feng Jinsong’s words, “If it weren’t for this, do you think I would tolerate what you’ve done?”
In order to take care of her mother, Feng Shuo handed over a clothing store he had previously run to Feng Yuanfei and an experienced manager to help her manage it. However, he did not expect that in less than three months, the manager would submit his resignation. The income of the store was simply not enough to pay the rent.
Feng Yuanfei smiled dryly and said, “Cousin, failure is the mother of success. Just give me another chance. I will definitely work hard. Now that you are the president of the company, can you arrange a position for me? My requirements are not high, just be a manager.”
Feng Jinsong and Jing Shaolan also looked at Feng Shuo greedily and waited for him to speak.
“You guys go pack your things immediately. The movers will be here soon.” Feng Shuo said coldly, “I will arrange for you to live in another place.”
However, entering the company was simply impossible!
Feng Jinsong and Jing Shaolan exchanged glances. Just as they were about to cry and rob the earth, they heard Feng Shuo’s even colder voice, “If you don’t want to live on the streets, do as I say.”
After what had happened today, Feng Shuo felt that Xia Luobing’s att.i.tude towards him had become even colder. How could he have a good expression on his face for these three so-called relatives?
Feng Yuanfei tugged at Feng Jinsong and Jing Shaolan and hurriedly nodded, “Alright, let’s move immediately.”
Right now, they didn’t dare to offend Feng Shuo. At least, they would still give him tens of thousands of yuan a month. If they really angered him, wouldn’t that be a chicken that flew in the wind?
When Xia Luobing heard the sound of moving things outside, there was no expression on his face. Just now, the nanny and aunt had already run over and told her that the three people from the opposite family had moved away overnight. The house was already empty.
Duo Duo slept very peacefully with her eyes closed. The temperature on her body also subsided. Her mouth pouted from time to time. She was very cute, making Xia Luobing’s irritable mood much more relaxed.
“Baby, mom will always protect you.” Xia Luobing lowered his head and kissed the little girl’s forehead. He raised his head and looked at the window with a deep gaze.
A year has pa.s.sed. Huo Yunqi’s injuries should have healed, right? Does he still hate her? Or have you forgotten
Xia Luobing’s heroic eyebrows furrowed tightly. Finally, she sighed softly. She deserved to hate or forget, as long as he was fine.
The child grew up day by day. Time was like sand on his fingertips, slipping away quietly. Three years pa.s.sed by in a hurry.
“Duoduo, let’s see what uncle bought for you.” Gao Yi’an held a one-meter-tall Barbie doll and signaled to the little girl who was playing in the living room, “Do you like it?”
Four-year-old Duo Duo was wearing a goose-yellow dress and red shoes. Seeing Gao Yi’an “Deng Deng” pouncing over and hugging a Barbie who was her height, she smiled sweetly and said, “Thank you, Uncle Gao.”
Charlotte came out of the study with the file and saw two people smiling. “Yi An, the gift you bought for her can already fill the entire room.”
For the past few years, Xia Luobing and her daughter’s life had been calm and peaceful. Gao Yi’an was a frequent visitor to their family, because he would always bring various toys to Duo Duo, so much so that the little girl treated him more kindly than her mother, Xia Luobing.
“Today is our little princess’ birthday!” Gao Yi’an picked Duo Duo up and kissed her. He smiled and said, “Duo Duo, can we go out for dinner? Uncle has already booked a room.”
Duo Duo clapped her hands and kissed Gao Yi’an. Her voice was soft and cute, “Alright.”
“I’m going to cook for you at home.” Charlotte glanced at the ingredients that had already been cut in the kitchen and said regretfully.
Because she was worried about the food outside being unsafe, Xia Luobing had been learning to cook since her daughter was born. After a few years, her cooking skills had improved greatly.
“How about this” Gao Yi’an smiled warmly. “I’ll just call and push it away. We’ll eat at home.”
Ever since the birth of the child, Gao Yi’an had been a frequent visitor to the family. He knew that Xia Luobing could not accept him, so he would never say anything beyond friendship, nor would he show his feelings. It was also because of this that five years had pa.s.sed and he and Xia Luobing were still very good friends.
An hour later, a sumptuous birthday dinner appeared on the table. Xia Luobing put a small jade lock on her daughter’s neck and kissed her cheek. “Happy birthday, baby.”
Duo Duo looked at the jade pendant in her neck and kissed her cheek like Xia Luobing did just now, “Thank you, Mommy.”
