Wolf-like CEO, Be Tender - C111

Xia Lan looked and saw that they were all fresh seafood. She smiled and said, “I don’t mind it, go back and feed it to children.”

“Ya, the Xia Secretary already has children, I thought you were a little girl.” The Lady Boss of the seafood restaurant was surprised.

“Ugh …” This time, Xia Lan was embarrassed, she did not know how to reply.

Gu Xi Jue glanced at her and replied: “My son.”

The Lady Boss of the seafood store was very understanding, nodding her head and saying, “It’s the same, whose son is not a son?”

This time, Xia Lan was even more embarrassed, as if she had admitted that Gu Xi Jue’s son was her son.

Looking at Gu Xi Jue, he was extremely happy. What the Lady Boss said was pleasing to his ears.

Even his expression became a lot friendlier.

The two bade farewell to everyone and returned to City A.

As he sat on the plane, the closer he got to A City, the more depressed Xia Lan became.

These few days in Sea Blue Village was really easy. She did not even think about the people in A City and the things that happened in the past.

But seeing that the plane was about to land meant that there were a lot of things waiting for her that she could not escape.

“What’s wrong with you? Are you still not feeling well?” Gu Xi Jue turned his head to look at Xia Lan, his expression somewhat ugly. Ever since he boarded the plane, she had started to feel that something was amiss.

Xia Lan shook her head: “No, I’m probably a little tired.”

“I’m just tired, so I’m going to sleep for a while.” Gu Xi Jue said as he asked the flight attendant for a blanket for her.

Ben didn’t want to sleep, and he wasn’t in the mood to, but he’d done it so meticulously that even if he didn’t want to, she leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.

Gu Xi Jue knew that she was still awake so he said, “I must be the happiest to know that you’ve returned.”

Xia Lan didn’t reply, but a sweet smile unconsciously appeared on her face. That’s right, that little guy must be waiting for her to return.

Not all A City was depressing, there was still a Xiao Ze who could bring her joy.

Xiao Ze liked her, so how could she not stay with Xiao Ze?

“In the future, if you travel somewhere, you can leave Xiao Ze with me.” Xia Lan said.

“I’ll just give my son to be taken by the fuck.” Gu Xi Jue said.

When they spoke, they did not look at each other.

However, both of them heard the other’s words.

Xia Lan did not reply. She knew Gu Xi Jue was provoking her, but she had no way of answering.

“Can I not go to the office today?” If she wasn’t in a hurry to get back to work, she wanted to go to the sanatorium first.

“Sure, I’m not going back to the company today either.” Gu Xi Jue rubbed his glabella, taking care of her that night. He also needed to rest.

The plane smoothly landed, and the two took their luggage and walked out of the airport building. Gu Xi Jue’s car was already waiting at the entrance.

Walking to the side of the car, Gu Xi Jue opened the car door and stepped in, he then stopped and looked back at the woman who did not plan to get on the car: “You’re not going to get on the car?”

“I have a place to go. It’s not along the way. I’ll go there myself.” Xia Lan rejected her tactfully.

Gu Xi Jue wasn’t too happy about her taciturn rejection, but he didn’t reveal it. The place she wanted to go to, should be a place that she couldn’t let him know or participate in.

In his heart, he was thinking that it was possible that he should go see Xiao Yan.

With their relationship, he had no right to interfere in her business.

“Yes.” With a bland grunt, Gu Xi Jue closed the car door with a cold expression.

The moment he closed the door, the car drove out.

Xia Lan stood there foolishly by herself, looking at the car in the distance, she muttered: “Why are you so angry? Don’t tell me that I have to get your permission to go see my father?”

How could she have known that the sulky Gu Xi Jue was sulking and feeling jealous?

Taking the address that Xiao Yan had given her, she went to a sanatorium on the outskirts of the city.

From the outside, the scale was not bad. Although the place was far away, the environment seemed pretty good.

But when he walked in, Xia Lan’s mood was different. There were a few old men sitting in the hall, all of their eyes were lifeless and completely empty.

On the right side of the hall, some old men were playing mahjong, and for some reason they were arguing. Anyway, she couldn’t imagine what her father was doing in a place like this.

As far as she was concerned, this place was like an old man’s prison.

Although they called it a sanatorium, it was nothing more than a nursing home with no medical facilities. There were only a few nurses watching them eat, drink, and sleep.

Xiao Yan said that her father had a stroke. Shouldn’t he be going to the hospital for treatment?

“Miss, is there anything I can do for you?” The people at the front desk noticed Xia Lan who was standing in the middle of the hall in a daze.

“I’m looking for someone. She’s called Xia …” Xia Lan said her father’s name and birthday.

The people at the front desk didn’t need to search for information, they immediately knew who she was looking for. They asked, “Who are you to him?”

“I’m his daughter.” Xia Lan said.

The person at the front desk scolded him with an unfriendly expression, “You, as a daughter, are really something. Why did it take so long to come see your father? We all thought he had no family.”

Xia Lan’s heart skipped a beat. After father came to this place, Bai Mei Feng and Xia Qing would not come to see him?

“Did you pay for his hospitalization?” Xia Lan thought, could it be that Bai Mei Feng had not even paid her debt for the admission fee?

“I do, every month I transfer money online. I really don’t know how you became a daughter. Let me bring you to him.” The person at the front desk chattered on, then walked out of the counter and brought Xia Lan to look for someone.

The staff took her up two floors. Upstairs, there were many rooms, one after the other, just like a hotel room.

He looked clean, but his nose was always filled with a pungent, unpleasant smell.

Finally, they stopped in front of a door. The staff did not say anything, but simply nodded with his chin and left.

The door was not closed. Xia Lan took two steps forward and saw that inside the room, her father was sitting on a wheelchair, with his back facing her. He was looking out the window.

Her feet rose and fell, as if it were a few times before she mustered the courage to go in.

Hearing the footsteps, Xia Lan’s father did not turn around. Instead, she tilted her head and looked out of the window, thinking about something.

Xia Lan walked to his side, squatted down beside him, and held his hand. “Dad …”

Father Xia’s eyes were filled with astonishment, as if he thought he had heard wrongly. He wanted to lower his head to see if he had heard wrongly, but he couldn’t move.

He could hear her, but he couldn’t move.

Father Xia sat in his wheelchair and wanted to move, but was unable to. After a few moves, he became extremely irritable, as if he was losing his temper and whining out loud.

Xia Lan held him down, as if he knew why her father’s reaction was so intense. With a gentle tone, he said, “Dad, I’m Lanlan, it’s really me.”

As soon as she said that, her father’s tears came out of the corners of his eyes and ran down his cheeks, soaking into the wrinkles on his face.

Xia Lan looked at him as tears flowed uncontrollably. After a few years of hard work, his father had aged a lot.
