Chapter 194 – Palace Dinner
After sleeping for two hours, Cheng Liyue woke up. Her entire body was drenched in sweat and her face was pale. She weakly got up from the bed.
He went out and poured himself a cup of boiling water. The door to the study was closed, and she thought, Gong Yexiao should still be working inside!
Not long after, the door to the study opened. Gong Yexiao walked out and walked onto the sofa to size her up. He could immediately tell how weak and haggard Cheng Liyue was.
"Go and change your clothes, I'll take you to dinner!" He reached out and touched her hair, which was disheveled on her forehead.
Arriving at the garage, the light dimmed, Gong Yexiao's hand instinctively grabbed onto her small hand, afraid that she would fall down, Cheng Liyue's heart warmed, looking at his tall figure, at that moment, he truly wanted to throw everything away and stay close to him.
Returning from eating lunch in a nearby restaurant, in the afternoon, Yan Yang came over to retrieve the materials and also gave him some new information. Cheng Liyue leaned on her own room and didn't disturb him.
It was almost 4 o'clock, Cheng Liyue thought to herself that she should pick up her son.
Before she could get up to look for Gong Yexiao, Gong Yexiao pushed open the door and came in. Cheng Liyue immediately got off the bed, "Did you go to pick up Ozawa?"
Gong Yexiao looked at her intently, "Tonight, I will bring Ozawa back to the palace to eat. You don't need to go pick him up."
"Tonight?" Cheng Liyue looked at him in shock, "Today's not a double day!"
Cheng Liyue's expression changed. She was originally a person with her guard up, as if she thought of something, and couldn't help but frown. "Bring Ozawa back as soon as possible."
"I'll bring him back earlier." Gong Yexiao promised.
Cheng Liyue looked up and asked, "Will Huo Yanran go?"
"I didn't ask. Maybe not." Gong Yexiao wanted to comfort her.
Gong Yexiao sighed, "Don't worry! The son will not accept any woman as his mother except you. "
Cheng Liyue bit her red lips, and looked at the wrist watch's time, "It's time for me to leave, tonight, Yan Yang will give you dinner. Stay at home, don't run around."
Cheng Liyue's nose turned sour. Being cared so much by him, she had no choice but to complain. Instead, she felt a little wronged.
Cheng Liyue came out of the room, and looked at the closed door, her heart was stung. Tonight, Gong Yexiao was going to bring his son to see Huo Yanran, even just thinking about the scene of them eating at the table, made her heart ache.
Gong Yexiao's car drove into the school. The little guy was no longer playing at the children's playground as he sat on a chair, seemingly waiting for his father's car to come over.
When the time came, he saw it. His mouth curved into a happy smile, and ran towards the car. The bodyguards quickly stopped, and Gong Yexiao immediately pushed open the door.
"Daddy …" The little guy ran in front of him and looked up excitedly.
"I was just thinking of coming over quickly to look for you! Let's go home! Mummy must be feeling really bad today, I need to go back and take care of her. " The little fellow said anxiously.
"How do you know that your Mummy is feeling bad?"
On the other hand, Gong Yexiao was pleased with his filial piety. He calmed his expression, looked at him seriously, and said, "Your Mummy is fine. Daddy took care of her for a whole day.
The little guy blinked, "Why are you going to Great Grandfather's house for dinner!"
"But we've just met!"
Gong Zongxiao stroked the beads of sweat on his forehead and said gently, "We're just going to have a meal. We'll go home after that."
"What about the Mummy?"
"The Mummy is so pitiful! Why didn't you let Mummy go to your great-grandfather's house for dinner? Great Grandfather has never seen my Mummy before! " It was only now that the little fellow recalled this matter, feeling somewhat baffled.
Gong Yexiao's chest felt a dull pain. He reached out and stroked his little head, "Ozawa, I will tell you about this matter in the future. Get on the carriage now."
Gong Yexiao watched him strenuously climb into the car with his backpack, but didn't help him. After seeing him get in, Gong Yexiao lowered his body and sat down, then closed the door.
He placed the little fellow on a specific safety seat, buttoned it up, and then drove in the direction of the palace.
Around 5 PM.
She received a call from Old Master Gong at around 10 in the morning, telling her to come over for dinner tonight. Furthermore, he told her that Gong Yexiao would be back tonight with his children.
In regards to this, Huo Yanran was also extremely cautious. She hadn't thought that marrying Gong Yexiao would require so much trouble, and even bring a child along. But who told Gong Yexiao to be so charming? Even if he had a child, there were plenty of women who would not refuse him, and so would she.
"Grandfather, I'm here." Huo Yanran walked to his side with a smile and greeted him cordially.
Old Master Gong spilled some fish food and turned to look at her with a smile, "You're here." After he finished speaking, he looked around again. Huo Yanran purposefully chose a traditional yet dignified style of clothing, which made Old Master Gong even more satisfied.
