After the divorce, the boss doted on me

"Xiaobei, on New Year's Eve, my brother will take you to Disney, okay?!"

Tan Manmin smiled, is he trying to curry favor with Xiao Bei?

"Does Manman want to go together too?!" Xiaobei sat up, blinking his black and bright eyes, "Brother, Manman, Xiaobei, the three of you go together!"

She froze for a moment, subconsciously glanced at his back.

At this time, the car had already parked in the parking lot of Book City. Gu Mochen turned off the engine, turned his head and said to Tan Man, "New Year's Day is a holiday, if you have nothing to do, let's go together."

Xiaobei suddenly stretched out his small hand to break her face to face him, like other children, he even learned to act like a baby: "Manman, come with us, okay?!"

Originally, she wanted to go home during the holidays, but the little guy's anticipation and enthusiasm made her heart melt instantly and she hesitated.

"Are you trying to be cute to me?" She pinched his little face.

Xiaobei pursed her lips, and she really acted cute. She winked at herself and nodded earnestly. Tan Man smiled wryly. This kid doesn't look like an autistic child, but he is clearly a master at flirting with girls.

Gu Mochen had already got out of the car. He opened the rear door, pulled Xiao Bei down, then turned around again, put his other arm on the car door, bent slightly and tilted his head, and asked Tan Man with raised eyebrows: "Do you have any holidays?" Any other arrangements?"

Seeing his good-looking face suddenly enlarged, Tan Man was a little caught off guard, and she swallowed.

"Could it be that you and your brother are both good at beauties?"

Gu Mochen didn't seem to expect her to say that, he was slightly taken aback, but soon, there was an evil smile in his eyes: "I'll take it as your promise, get out of the car!"

"Hey!" Tan Man looked at the back of the tall and short handsome man in front of her, and said angrily, "I also need to make an appointment for my time!"

"Then I'll make an appointment for Xiaobei!"

"..."

There was a book signing in the book city today, and it was crowded with people, so it was very lively. Gu Mochen simply hugged Xiaobei in his arms, and walked quickly towards the escalator.

Tan Man followed closely behind. As she walked, she couldn't help but look curiously at the stage set up at the event site. She didn't even notice that on the other side of her, several female fans were rushing towards the front line. Turning around, seeing that they were about to rush into the crowd, a strong long arm grabbed her and pulled her into her arms.

Tan Man escaped the chaos belatedly, but was taken aback by the sudden intimacy. She huddled in Gu Mochen's arms and remained motionless, staring at him with big black eyes, like a bird. frightened bird.

"Look at the road!" Gu Mochen looked down at her panicked look, scolded in a low voice, then let go of his hand, let her walk in front of him, and moved his body slightly closer to her, as if wanting to Keep her going forward.

At this moment, Tan Man found that the crazy and enthusiastic cheers of the fans around her could not cover up the thumping heartbeat in her chest. She became more and more convinced that she was stepping into an unrequited love that she couldn't help herself. His few words, Even a subtle movement and expression can plunge oneself into endless reverie and guesswork.

Walking to the children's area absent-mindedly, Tan Man took out her mobile phone and prepared to purchase things according to the list. Xiao Bei couldn't wait to break free from Gu Mochen's arms and ran towards the cars on the toy shelf.

"Why don't you look at Xiaobei, I'll look for materials." She lowered her head, pretending to flip through the handmade material bag in front of her.

"You can see him here too, let's go together."

Gu Mochen's tone was firm, but she didn't insist, and continued to bow her head to choose.

"What book do you want to buy?"

Tan Man was taken aback, and almost forgot about her own affairs: "Oh, the review materials for the postgraduate entrance examination."

"Ready for the postgraduate entrance examination?"

She nodded: "Read more books, I'm afraid it will be useful. Anyway, when you go back from get off work every day, you are still idle when you are idle."

"Why didn't you continue to study after graduation? In my impression, the first degree seems to be more meaningful than the highest degree."

"Because I don't want to delay my dad anymore." She raised her head and pursed her lips into a smile, shrugging her shoulders briskly, "I am a child of a single-parent family. When I was 17, my mother passed away, and he became both a father and a mother. , thinking of everything for me, sacrificed a lot, afraid of affecting my college entrance examination, and rejected many opportunities to remarry. If I continue to study in graduate school, he will never let me go out to work. In that case, I will delay him for several years. I don't want to see him frugal for me to go to school anymore, my dad is a middle school teacher, and his income can completely allow him to live well in his hometown."

This is the first time Gu Mochen heard her talking about her family. He originally thought that Tan Man, a girl who is as hot and cheerful as the sun, must have a happy and complete family with thousands of pets, so she can not have a trace of gloom. He grew up, but he was surprised and shocked to hear her words.

Tan Man saw that he hadn't spoken and looked at herself thoughtfully, so she grinned at him: "So, you are a living Bodhisattva, recruiting a part-time job with a high salary, let me prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination a year earlier than expected .”

After finishing speaking, he continued to walk forward without looking at him again.

Gu Mochen followed behind without any unnecessary response. Looking at the pure and flawless figure in front of him, he had the idea of ​​wanting to be grateful for his fate for the first time. He was very fortunate that he ran into him three months ago when he was on a business trip in Beijing. Professor Zhang was even more fortunate that she brought Tan Man to him, regardless of her identity. At this moment, he felt that even if he was abandoned by his mother at the age of six and lived with his father, fate would still favor him.

"Your father is great, and you are also excellent." After a moment of silence, Gu Mochen said slowly.

Tan Man chose a material package and handed it back to him: "You take on the responsibilities that don't belong to you without complaint, and take care of Xiaobei alone, isn't it greater?!"

He shook his head: "You and I, as well as Xiaobei, we all grew up in incomplete families, but your father taught you very well, allowing you to always maintain a passion for life, full of expectations for the future, optimistic and kind, I can't compare myself to this point. Over the years, I have treated Xiao Bei not so much as taking care of him, but in fact, I have done my best to meet his financial needs so that he has no worries about food and clothing. My own life, except for day and night I really don’t know what else I can bring to Xiaobei besides money. Sometimes when I look at you, I even wonder if I’m missing some of the most basic human emotions.”

Gu Mochen was talking casually, but behind his usual tenacious and powerful aura, there seemed to be a trace of fragility.

"'Everyone is trudging their own way of life, and there are losses or shortcomings that others cannot understand. No matter what, don't complain about the world, let alone despair about the future, and always remain strong and optimistic', this is my father When I gradually formed my own outlook on the world and life, I realized how powerful my father’s subtle influence is.” Tan Man raised her eyes and looked at him sincerely.

"In my eyes, no matter as an older brother or as a man, you are outstanding and dazzling. You have the tenacity and hard work of a man, and the calmness and responsibility of an older brother. These are what Xiao Bei needs most to become a man of indomitable spirit. Character, it is also at this moment that you are personally influencing him, so you have done a good job."

Tan Man spoke very sincerely, and Gu Mochen fell into those bright and deep eyes like a clear pool.

At this moment, he sincerely believed that this smart, kind and energetic girl in front of him would definitely be able to heal Xiao Bei, and even change his dull life.

After selecting the required materials, the two turned back and walked to the toy shelf, and found that Xiao Bei was studying with a sample of a Thomas locomotive with great interest.

"Do you like it?" Gu Mochen asked.

Xiaobei raised his head, his shining eyes honestly exposed his heart.

"Hello!" Gu Mochen turned around and waved to the staff, "Is there a new one for this, get one for me!"

The other party said apologetically: "I'm sorry, this Thomas train is out of stock, only this sample is left, but the door of this train was broken, and it doesn't close very tightly. If you need it, you can get a [-]% discount." .”

Gu Mochen frowned, turned to Xiaobei and said, "It's broken, let's pick another one."

Xiaobei, who was originally happy, lost his temper when he heard this, and held his favorite toy tightly: "I want this!"

"This toy is broken. We don't want it. Pick a good one." He picked up a bigger one next to him, and handed it to Xiaobei. "This one, this one is bigger and more beautiful!"

"No!" Xiaobei slapped the toy away from Gu Mochen's hand vigorously.

Gu Mochen didn't seem to want to compromise, and patiently picked up the train on the ground: "Then let's go to another place to pick it up, maybe there is the same one."

Xiaobei shouted stubbornly: "I want this one!"

Seeing a tinge of anger in Gu Mochen's eyes, Tan Man immediately said: "Why don't you just buy it, anyway, it's just that the door is not closed tightly, it's not a big problem, you have already agreed to buy it for him, Xiaobei I like it again, why are you so persistent, maybe I can fix it when I go back to Xiaobei."

"Bad is bad, and I won't pay for a defective product."

After finishing speaking, he resolutely took the Thomas train from Xiaobei's hand and put it back on the shelf, and led Xiaobei to turn around and leave.

With a sound of "Wow", Xiao Bei burst into tears, struggling hysterically, but couldn't break free from Gu Mochen, and could only look back at his beloved toy three times a step at a time.

"Manman, Manman..." Xiaobei cried and looked at her for help while shouting.

Although she didn't quite agree with Gu Mochen's inexplicable insistence, but his face was determined and angry, she didn't dare to say anything, and could only watch the little guy cry hoarsely.

"Xiao Bei, that Thomas broke down just now, you may not like it when you buy it home, please don't cry if you are obedient?"

"No, that's what I want!" Xiaobei insisted, choked up.

"Leave him alone, naturally he won't cry when he's tired of crying. It's not what he wants, so he has to satisfy him." Gu Mochen said in a calm voice, irritated.
