After leaving the villa and returning to the back seat of the car, Fu Zheng told the driver to go back to the hotel.

He took out his phone and replied to Special Assistant Yang, "Promise him to find a suitable time and place to meet."

A few minutes later, Special Assistant Yang replied, "Deputy Director Li said that he is free tonight. I will pick him up at your hotel at 8pm. Is that okay with you?"

When it comes to poaching people, you must not do it in a big way.

"There are too many people watching the hotel, let's go to the villa on Hongshan Road."

That was Fu Zheng’s property in the capital, and he didn’t live there all the time.

"it is good."

Special Assistant Yang should go down and remind him, "Remember to check your email."

Fu Zheng did not reply. He found Wen Liang's phone number and called her.

The call was answered quickly.

"Fu Zheng?" A warm voice came, with heavy breathing, as if he had just finished exercising.

Fu Zheng: "Aliang, what are you doing?"

"I'm practicing yoga..." Wen Liang took a breath and complained, "I'm sweating and exhausted after just a few sets of movements. I'm too weak."

"Didn't I advise you to stay in bed for one more month? Why don't you rest for a few more days?"

"It's okay. I asked Aunt Zhang and she said I can do some simple exercises now." Wen Liang took two sips of water. "Why did you call me? Is there something wrong?"

"It's been so long since we last met, do you miss me?"

"…If you have something to say, just say it."

"I just came back from Huo Dongcheng." Fu Zheng's voice sounded a little low on the phone, "I met Mason."

Wen Liang asked hurriedly, "How is he now?"

Mason was in a bad state during the video call at the airport.

Over the past month, Huo Dongcheng often reported Mason's condition to her and occasionally took photos, but he was not able to see him in person, so he was always worried.

"It's better than I thought. It's obvious that Huo Dongcheng has taken good care of it over the past month. Apart from being shorter and thinner, it looks like an ordinary child."

"That's great, it seems that what Brother Dongcheng said is true." Wen Liang's voice revealed a hint of surprise, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what, it was her fault as a mother who failed to fulfill her responsibilities.

She always felt guilty when she thought of Mason. Now that she knew Mason was recovering slowly, the heavy stone in her heart finally eased a little.

Fu Zheng's mouth twitched, and he continued, "He's just a little timid and sensitive, but he listens to Huo Dongcheng very much. If I guide him slowly, I think he can correct himself."

"Hearing you say that, I feel relieved. Did you go to Brother Dongcheng for something else, or did you go there for Mason?"

"Visiting Mason."

"What made you want to go see him?"

"I have nothing to do today, and I thought about how you always worry about him, so I left."

Hearing this, Wen Liang felt a warm current in her heart, and she said sincerely, "Fu Zheng, thank you."

"Aliang, if I have to thank you, I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for taking Fanfan seriously."

Fu Zheng's tone was serious, and everyone knew that he would keep his word. "Mason is your child, and he is my responsibility. I promised to treat him like my own child, and I will naturally care about his growth. Mason will definitely get better slowly."

"Does he know me now?" Wen Liang asked tentatively.

"We don't know yet. Huo Dongcheng said he would find a suitable time to tell him. He is too young and has just arrived in the capital, so he can't accept too much at once." Fu Zheng replied.

There was silence on the other end of the line.

"A Liang?"

"I feel very complicated now. Sometimes I hope he knows about me, but I don't know how to face him."

As he spoke, Wen Liang sighed softly.

“Aliang, don’t worry too much. I see Huo Dongcheng takes good care of Mason. Since you don’t know how to deal with it, why not let it go and take it slowly?”

Fu Zheng comforted him, "No matter what you choose, I will be by your side to support you."

"Well, thank you, I will think about it carefully."

After hanging up the phone, Fu Zheng leaned back in the car seat, leisurely looking at the scenery rapidly receding outside the window.

Help Huo Dongcheng ask Wen Liang?

Impossible.

Let him ask himself.

……

Wen Liang put down her phone, drank two sips of water, and continued to practice the yoga moves that Aunt Zhang taught her.

Unexpectedly, just as I lay down on the yoga mat, my cell phone rang again.

Wen Liang got up again, picked up his phone and took a look. It was a call from Huo Dongcheng.

She answered the phone curiously, "Brother Dongcheng?"

"Aliang, did I disturb your rest?" Huo Dongcheng's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of concern.

"No, what's going on? Tell me, is it related to Mason?"

"Yes, how are you now?"

"Thank you for your concern. I'm recovering well. I just finished my confinement a few days ago."

"It's like this. Mason and I are getting more and more familiar with each other. Two days ago, he asked me why he only has a father, while others have fathers and mothers. I was helpless and could only try my best to comfort him and said that his mother would come to see him soon." Huo Dongcheng smiled helplessly, "If you can't come, I will take Mason to Jiangcheng. It just so happens that he stays at home all day studying with his teacher and is a little bored. I plan to take him out for sightseeing."

Expect Fu Zheng to ask Wen Liang?

I definitely don't expect it.

Huo Dongcheng chose to ask in person.

Wen Liang hesitated.

"Is there anything difficult?" Huo Dongcheng immediately explained, "Don't worry, although Mason is physically weak, he is very smart due to his own experience. After you meet him, tell him the truth and come back, he will understand."

Hearing this, Wen Liang's heart tightened.

Although Mason is young, he has suffered a lot. He is sensitive and timid, but he is precocious and sensible.

He understands everything, whether his parents love him or not.

At that moment, Wen Liang thought of herself when she was young. Although her father loved her very much, she still wanted to have a mother of her own to give her care and love when she was a child.

"No, Brother Dongcheng, it's just that I haven't been to the studio for a long time, and I've been busy these past two days." Wen Liang's voice was filled with a hint of apology, "I'm Mason's mother, and he is my responsibility. I was thinking about this, and since you brought it up, I'll go to Beijing tomorrow and stay there for a few days."

"Okay, Aliang, just agree to it."

There was a hint of joy in Huo Dongcheng's voice, "I think Mason will be very happy to see you. By the way, did you know that Fu Zheng came to visit Mason today?"

"Yes, he just told me."

Huo Dongcheng paused and smiled, "That's good. He is very thoughtful and prepared a game console for Mason. Mason likes it very much."

As expected, Fu Zheng did not ask her about her visit to Mason, otherwise she would not have reacted like this when the call was connected.

"That's good, Dongcheng brother, I'll get ready first, see you tomorrow."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Wen Liang felt a little nervous and uneasy thinking about the upcoming meeting.

I guess this is what it means to be homesick.
